Nomination Friday…

So – while Big Brother Craze is down, currently, I’m gonna update here. Because this is killing me.

As soon as possible we’ll be back up at BBC – but for now, hit the cut and see where we currently stand in the house…

Russell won the Endurance HOH after making a deal with Jeff that covers safety for both Jeff and Jordan, as well as Ronnie going on the block. Yesterday, he kept the first part of that deal, and placed Ronnie and Lydia on the block.

Here’s what I wrote when the site went down:

AUGH! SITE DOWN SITE DOWN PANIC!

Jordan and Russell talk more about the competition,
Jordan: I thought it as fun!

Russell: I don’t want to backdoor him. Too many things can go wrong. If he wins, he wins, fuck it.
Jordan: you and jeff are like really good at competitions though! Ya’ll are like right up there… so.
Russell: I hope Jeff’s name gets drawn
Jordan: micheles good too.
Russell: I just hope someone doesn’t take him off
Jordan: who would?!
Russell: Jessie maybe.
Jordan: why?!
Russell: he had a deal…

2:50 – Lydia joins and came in to hang out.
Russell: you don’t need to go..
Lydia: you can stay, I just came to hang out. He’s gonna nominate me, it’s alright.

Russell: I should do the nominations HAMMARED. (He’s drinking a beer)

Russell: so fill me in…
Lydia: They’re all he’s probably going to target me and Kevin, because we’re weak players, but why would he put two weak players up, it doesn’t make sense. After you nominate me, I’m saving a nugget, and then I’ll tell me.
Russell: what if it saves you…
Lydia: I can’t say it in front of Jordan.
Jordan: I’ll let you talk. Come out side whenever you’re done scheming!

(she leaves)

Russell: So what’s going on?
Lydia: the consensus is that me and Ronnie are going up, or Me and Kevin, Kevin and Ronnie. You won’t put up chima, Natalie, jeff and Jordan, or Michele.. that leaves us three.
Russell: who’s the one person you’d want to see out?
Lydia; Ronnie or Michele.
Russell: Pick one.
Lydia: Michele. Ronnie will tell you things, Michele tells you nothing.
Russell: Ronnie is garbage, at least she doesn’t say anything
Lydia; they’re one and the same.
Russell: she’s a quieter Ronnie. What’s this nugget
Lydia: it’s interesting to see who sticks with their clique. Certain people in your clique feel safe, but they have made a point to say they’ll come after you the minute they get the chance..
Russell: who?
Lydia: I don’t want to say.
Russell: then it’s not useful.
Lydia: You can confirm with Kevin. It was Jessie, and Natalie said it right away. I had to work over Ronnie to get you not up.
Russell: I was under the impression they did..
Lydia; They think you lie to them constantly. Natalie says you constantly lie, and you will flirt with Jordan then run back and tell them,, and they both said that when they got the opportunity.. they’d put you up. I’m just saying if you want to target the weirdos, fine. I don’t win anything. At least I have the balls to tell you what people are saying.

Russell: this game sucks…
Lydia; you’re gonna put me up
Russell: I want Ronnie to go home.
Lydia: here’s the thing. If you put up Ronnie and I get to vote, I’ll vote him out. I can’t do anything if I’m on the block.

Lydia: and to Jessie, Ronnie was more valuable to Casey. It was smarter for them to keep Ronnie as a yes man.
Russell: what do you think about Natalie/Jessie
Lydia: I think natalie is young, has feelings, and is star struck by Jessie, and Jessie loves the attention.
Russell: chima?
Lydia: she’s very up front. She’s very smart in that way to use people long enough, then cut them. Not a bad thing, I just think she’s capable of doing it.
Russell: If you had to pick between Jessie, Natalie, Chima to go home..
Lydia: Natalie.
Russell: really? That’s not very smart.. she hasn’t won anything..
Lydia; she can’t keep her mouth shut, she’s always starting shit

Lydia: about Jessie, I find it interesting that the mob mentality is bad when it’s after Ronnie, but ok with Casey. It’s like if it benefits you, it’s ok. I love Kevin, but he gets very high doses of paranoia. He does give me good advise for the wonder twins.
Russell: how to deal with them?
Lydia: Yeah, be cordial, but they’re only nice when they need something. It’s a conditional thing.

Ronnie interrupts to weigh himself.

Ronnie: can I sit or are you…
Russell: I’m doing the rounds man, you know how it is.

Ronnie leaves..

Lydia: I’d love the chance to be the first girl HOH.
Russell: so you’re saying don’t trust Jessie and Natalie?
Lydia: I’m saying they’ll be your friend only when it benefits them. Take what they say with a grain of salt. I listen, I know about your sister, your little brother is breaking all your high school records right now
Russell: no he’s not, shut up..
Lydia: he so is, and the thing is you were on teams and now you’re not. They’ll carry each other, not you. Kevin and I are tight, but we know that we’ll have to go against each other. We’re realistic. The wondertwins live in lala land, and think they can manipulate people to do what’s best for them.

Lydia; if we were still in the cliques, you’d have to go after an oddball and a brain. But whatever you choose to do, don’t tell anyone.
Russell: yeah, I’m running through all the scenarios in my head.
Lydia: Match up two you wouldn’t mind seeing in those green chairs, pair up each scenario and think which will be the most beneficial to me.
Russell: So you don’t like Ronnie either?
Lydia: no! he’d fucking win! Are you kidding me? He just sits ther and watches and lurks!
Russell: and people forget he’s sitting there and start talking…

Lydia; what do you think?
Russell: I don’t know if I can trust Chima, Jessie, Natalie. And they’re always together, and Natalie is star struck
Lydia: uh huh, and she’s all grabbin his balls all the time, commenting on his nipplies being hard, wearing his clothes… if I had a boyfriend or girlfriend I wouldn’t be doing that all the time…
Russell: it’s weird that she dresses in his clothes.
Lydia: she’s a teen. Do you want a teenager to be the reason you leave?
Russell: she’s running the Jessie show.
Lydia: he does it to her too.
Russell: I wonder who will be the first to challenge them..
Lydia: you could be, but I figure it’s a 0% chance.
Russell: Well. (Long pause) this game is twisted.
Lydia: this is what I’d do if I were you. If I got HOH – I’d put up two bad guys that I wouldn’t mind going home. I don’t want to backdoor, I think that’s a shiesty move.

Russell: why were you so up on his jock.. (Ronnie)
Lydia: We weren’t talking game…
Russell: when casey was listening?
Lydia: Oh, we were talking about catching you in a lie
Russell: you never caught me in a lie.. no one asked me
Lydia; it was that you said he said something that sent you after Jeff, and he was the by the pool with us. It just seems like you two have a secret deal because you go into the storage room when everyone’s sleeping, and if you have something, than kudos.
Russell: was my name in that discussion?
Lydia; Just that you were mean to me.
Russell: did Ronnie say anything?
Lydia; He said that he felt you had the dignity to call him out to his face, when Casey did it behind his back, that was befoe hOH, and now today he’s all it’s me and you me and you, and I want to talk to him and I don’t know if it’d do any good, if he’ll think I’m trying to get off the block, it’s just who sits there with me..
Russell: did he say anything about Russell bullying people?
Lydia: he said you’d strongarm.
Russell: how does that work, I haven’t been HOH… Why am I getting so much crap?
Lydia: you’ve made it known, you will win shit, you’re capable of winning shit, you’re a strong player…it’s a threat to people like Ronnie…

3:32 Natalie/Ronnie are in the Green Room –
Getting Ronnie’s version of what’s going on in the house today – including telling Natalie that Lydia wants Russell to make a power move and take out a power person, and Russell told her that he’s safe.

Natalie says that he could trade with Kevin on the slop pass right up until she uses it, and she’d use it as soon as she eats which she’s about to do right now…
— Lessa: I guess she forgets that she was munching candy last night. She also thinks it’s all season long, too. I don’t know about that…

3:41 – Lydia finally leaves Russell alone.

Jessie’s getting slop, while Chima, Natalie and Ronnie eat the potatoes and eggs Chima made.

3:49 – Jessie and Natalie and Chima are heading upstairs, tell Ronnie not to come up yet, they don’t think he’ll be receptive as much with him there…

Russell: just so you know, I heard you want me out..
Jessie: OF COURSE I DO! My actions speak louder than words…
Russell: this fucking sucks.
Chima: doing ok?
Russell: I hate this. It sucks. Oh, btw, I found out all three of you want me out
Chima: that what that bitch said?
Russell: she said she petitioned to keep me in..
Jessie: I told you!
Chima: she’s so full of shit!
Natalie: Let’s ask her! Bring her up and ask her why I walked down the stairs so fucking pissed – because her ass was attacking my teammate…
Russell: she said that all of you have an agreement to get me out… and I was like, I started to believe and was like WHAT THE HELL? What am I doing?!
Jessie: like I said, the plan you go into the HOH with is the one you stick with.
Natalie: Why do we even talked to her?! She lies!
Russell: it’s irrellevent, I’m obviously not putting you up.

Natalie: who wanted you backdoored? It was here!
Chima: Fine Jessie, we’ll let you talk then were gonna attack that bitch!
Jessie: Like I said, the actions. Look at Chima, jeff, Jordan and Michele – they all stayed up there! They all fought because they were scared of their position. Those two dropped like flies,
Chima; that bitch said fuck this and fell.
Jessie: they’re putting things into everyone’s head, because she knw she was going up, even if she’s not going out right now. Don’t let it get in between this…
Chima: I hate it when people lie!
Russell: that’s part of the game.
Jessie: and it didn’t come out until you were HOH… conveniently now…
Russell: Please, with both of you – I hope that if you do me dirty, just gimme a chance to play. (laughing)
Natalie: this was Lydia and Kevin were pushing it, because she was all we don’t want him in the jury house because he’s a bully…
Jessie: you hitting her with the ball, she was gonna come after you..
Russell: that was so on accident
Natalie; she was all he didn’t even apologize…
Chima: she’s suck a fucking bipolar drama queen who will suck your dick to get ahead
Natalie: she will use anything, including her body. I want to call this girl out
Jessie: NO.
Natalie: I love how it was her pushing it – I walked out of the room fucking pissed, because she was all that’s your team mate, that’s your teammate…
Russell: you wanna know what Ronnie know, he went to Jordan and was all I’ve been thinking, and… trying to get votes..
Natalie: you think they’d fall for it? Jordan’s gullible..
Russell: no, jeff wants him gone. Lydia wasn’t the worst. Ronnie said a lot of interesting things too.
Chima: what did he say?!
Russell: He was all put up chima and Michele, chima’s playing you, wants to take out all the men..
Natalie: Lydia was all hey girls lets band together, on the thing last night!
Jessie: and the girl power was Kevin too.
Chima: Ronnie came to me and said I talked to Russell and told him you were amazing, a survivor and part of the team…
Russ; He was just throwing you under the bus! Ronnie is dumbfounding..
Chima: fucking fatass! He just showed me his ass downstairs. He threw me and Michele under the bus….
Russ: my head is spun – for a minute it was like the only one I can trust is Ronnie and I was like wtf?! This is the way the votes are gonna work – you you you Jeff and Jordan will vote him out.
Natalie: Michele might vote for him..
Russ: No, I talked to her. She hates him. She’ll vote the way I tell her. I basically flat out threatened her.

Russ; this place messes with your head! For a good five minutes I thought you wanted me out! (laughing)

Ronnie: I want Lydia out of this frikken house.
Russell: You and everyone else in this house.
Ronnie: She comes and says, Ronnie I have a bad feeling. I think you and I are going to go up. She says I get why people want to put you up. but not me. I’m a sucky player. Here we go floating strategy #12.

Jessie: this is your chance to get someone. If you had a plan before you got HOH, then stick with it, and you’ll be doing the right thing.
Russell: and things that they are saying, so many stories
Natalie; if they were your friends, they’d be telling you before
Ronnie: and what helped me, it was the whole what’s in my best interest, what they said was irrellevent
Natalie: I can’t believe how much that bitch was pushing for..
Russ; can you just give me a break man, I don’t know how you did this two weeks. I can’t talk about this anymore.

Jessie: just remember, just think about what your parents would do.

They start talking about hunting… then the have nots, and Jessie bitches again about being on slop.

4:45 – Russell to the DR.
Natalie/Jessie crawl into the HOH bed to take a nap. But not until they whisper quickly

Natalie: he told Ronnie he was good, he said no way in hell! He might be doing the same to us!

Natalie; don’t talk to Lydia Jessie, seriously! Don’t talk to her anymore! She’s not gonna do anything for you and sure some of the stuff that was said was true but I never would do that to you! Don’t talk to her at all! If you do, I’ll be so mad at you!
Jessie: Chill out.
Natalie: I’m just gonna..
Jessie: chill out, knock it off.

Natalie; if Lydia goes up, I’m going to vote her out. Lydia does nothing for my game, Ronnie does.
Jessie: We’ll cross that bridge when we get to it.
Natalie: I want Ronnie at some point too, but not yet.

Jessie: if Ronnie were up against us, Ronnie would for sure go home. That’s why we need to keep telling him he’ll go home.
Natalie; if you keep talking to that woman it’ll be WW4 up in here.

Kevin/Lydia compare stories they told Russell, then talk to Jordan, going on the Ronnie bashing train.

Jessie once again bitches about last season
Jessie: it’s an outside influence that fucks the game. That’s why I didn’t win.
–Lessa: because we don’t like you, you whiney-ass tool!

5:12 – Houseguests, this is a lockdown..

Nominations soon!

5:16 – Russell, please go to the DR..
BB: Hey guys, we need some silence from you all. Sit up, al that good stuff.
5:17 – Trivia.
–Amusing fact, it’s the wrong set of Trivia. It says they’re preparing for tonight’s live show. Hahahah. Whoops?
— they switched it at some point to the “Houseguests are playing a game..” normal one.

6:26 – We’re back. Ronnie and Lydia are nominated. They’re keys are missing. “Michele’s the only one on the middle row with a key”

Lydia: I really hope I stay. Natalie, Chima, Jessie, Michele can vote to keep Ronnie!
Kevin: Jessie? No..
Lydia: pawns go home. I won’t forget that he put me up.
Kevin: you need to pull him aside right away. Let him know there’s no hard feelings
Lydia: there are hard feelings…

Lydia: I could win POV.
Kevin: all you have to do is corner Natalie and get her word on it in front of someone, since she’s so big on her word. If I win POV I’ll pull you off.
Lydia: you’re the only person who would use it on me
Kevin: Jessie
Lydia: He won’t use it.
Kevin: what kinda friend wouldn’t? Stay in the middle. He’s not out to screw you. What did we say up there..
Lydia: Oh you’re not on the block. We didn’t say anything. It’s an easy out.
Kevin: you have four solid!
Lydia: the veto’s tomorrow, yay. (smirk)
Kevin: ask Jessie if he’d pull you off.
Lydia: that way I know to pick you. If I get Houseguests choice.
Kevin: Don’t worry. I know, your on the block…you need to go out there.
Lydia: I’m not going out there.
Kevin: You need too…
Lydia: I understand, but your not on the block, you don’t know what it feels like, it doesn’t have to be right now.

Ronnie, btw, is sitting alone in the green room.

Kevin: This time don’t you feel a little better?
Lydia: no.
Kevin: against RONNIE?!

Russell says that BB made him re-do the keys, he was laughing when he put them in the box
BB: Russell, stop that!
Russell: I’m sorry! It was Jessie!

Sounds like Jordan’s key was first, Natalie and Jessie’s last. Russell said he decided to fuck with them, had Natalie worried.

Kevin: Excellent speech. Did you see his lips get tighter and tighter.

Chima’s asked to be chosen as a host for the POV.

Jeff is working with some squid, showing them a way to stuff them and will cook them up for the have-nots to try. They talk about Jessie making it past week four..
Jessie: until one of you mother fuckers use the magic power and send me out the door!

General chitchat.

To Jeff
Russ: are you just winging this?!
Jeff yeah.
Russ: wow. You need to go on top chef or some shit…
Natalie; you need to go on hell’s kitchen!

Natalie/Chima in the Storage roo
Chima: That was mean, unnecessary.
Natalie; We still have to be good speech good speech
Chima: If I play I’ll have to take him off – no I can’t, then I’ll be fucked!
Natalie: I wouldn’t take him off. We have the votes. Play to win though, with this magic power….

All feeds for a while on Ronnie noisily eating an apple.

7:06
Back to the kitchen, general chitchat.

Jessie’s giving Chima a massage
Chima: you feel that?
Jessie: little muscles!
Chima: I know! My little muscles don’t like to be worked! They’re all like what the hell!

Jessie: What were the words?
Chima: Cabbage and Cocktail Weenies
Jessie: So it’s alliteration!
Chima: I think the next should be popcorn and pizza!
Jessie: Beef and Broccoli…
Chima: oh that would be good!

Turns out the squid experiment “Turned out ok!” according to Jeff.

7:30 Jordan doesn’t feel very well- Russell checks on her, and now Jeff. She says she’s gonna take a lil nap. Russell offers her the HOH bed to rest in.

Ronnie/Natalie whisper a brief moment when Natalie grabs her blanket, say they’ll talk later.

Natalie/Jessie in the store room
Natalie; He was like you me and chima are in an alliance, right? I said yeah, we’ll have to talk later though. Comes down to he needs to win POV. And not Kevin.

Natalie: if we get the power…
Jessie: I mean, if it’s one vote, he’ll still go home. If we stick to the plan, unless Ronnie saves himself with the POV, we have to vote Ronnie out. You can do whatever you want. We can’t just say guess what I have the power
Natalie: We could go against Russell’s wishes, even without the power.
Jessie: We can’t do some secret gang sign.

Natalie: we gotta just wait till tomorrow and the POV. Which sucks because we can’t sleep well and we have a competition. That bed will make me not do good…
Jessie: I’m worried about my belly. I’ll be the only one hurling in the POV due to what I’m eating.

7:52 – Jessie and Natalie sleep to sleep…
Production into the green room : guys, FYI, you are not allowed to sleep i…..Psychodelic FOTH.

7:54 – back.

Lydia acts like she has the Coup d’Etat – jeff asks if she has a power, if he’s in danger, if she wants milk and cookies…

Lydia: I haven’t said anything!
Jeff: You can’t smile like that!
Lydia: I like to smile!
Chima: Not while your on the block, you don’t! I remember!
Jeff: When do we find out what happens?!
Chima: They have two weeks…
Jeff: I’m just freaking out right now.. I better get some more milk and cookies before I’m out of here!
Lydia: (smiles)

Jeff: What place did I come in? Last?
Chima: you’ll be on the bold and the beautiful, they’re calling you right now..
Jeff: I’d like to be on 90210. I can come back and be the guy who assinates Luke Perry.

Russell came out – and they ask if he got it, then say Lydia acts like she does. Then they call Jeff to the DR
Russell: WIZZARD!
Jeff: whoooooosh!
Chima: they’re gonna call all of us in there just to fuck with us!

8:30 – HOH room, Lydia/Russell
Russell: how much do you hate me. Spill the beans.
Lydia: it was predictable. I just hope that your sincere and ligit in wanting him to go home and not me.
Russell: are you kidding me?
Lydia: The house doesn’t go according to plan much…
Russell: casey was the plan… Laura…
Lydia: Ronnie was the original plan.
Russell: I know Kevin won’t vote to send you home. I made a pact with Jeff, the agreement was Jeff and Jordan are safe and we want Ronnie gone.
Lydia: what if chima, Michele, Jessie and Natalie want them to stay? That’s four!
Russell: they go against me, and then I know they don’t want to work with me
Lydia: and then I’ll go home!
Russell: You’re not gonna go home!
Lydia: I’m taking it better…
Russell: I don’t want you to go home! I honestly put you up because you have a better chance of winning than Kevin.
Lydia: Jordan said you had some epic speech… mongoose and rat?
Russell: getting all discovery chanel in this bitch!
Lydia: I think you’re the only other catholic person in the house
Russell: so’s jeff. Just you know it’s just like don’t use the thing I believe in and slander it…

Lydia: I’ll say this once… Who has the balls! Apparently you don’t buddy!
Russell: what?
Lydia: I was like who had the balls to put up Jessie and Natalie earlier!
Russell: has nothing to do with balls. If they vote for Ronnie, then it’s done. Michele and Chima aren’t going to vote to keep him.
Lydia: if I go home and you’re bsing me..
Russell: you can cut my balls. I never said I wanted you gone. Why you think he’s so pissed?!
Lydia: Jessie and Natalie will want to keep him..
Russell: then they’re screwed. Why would they stick their necks out for him? He has a chance to save himself.
Lydia: He came in to get his jacket and tried to start talking and I’m like dude.. I don’t want tot talk to you. He’ll try to get in my head..
Russell: he’s gonna try and get you off the game. He can’t help you out.
Lydia: he has one shot.
Russell: That’s it. He’s not Superman. I hope he’s not the magical wizard. That would fuck with the game. I would lose a lot of… I mean just think integrity of the game.
Lydia: Ronnie wants everyone to think it is him.
Russell: he like the power – he only has that to play. I heard him say that in the room. I heard him.
Lydia: yeah, he was like It’s gonna be me and you.
Russell: I think your awesome, hilarious, smart. I want Ronnie gone. I hope you believe me. I don’t like the kid. I don’t.
Lydia: tomorrow we’ll play POV. And hopefully… I hope they keep it the same.
Russell: if I come after them, they’re screwed. Would you even use it?
Lydia: Um, YEAH.
Russell: I’ll put Jordan up. Your not going anywhere. Sit there and look pretty.
Lydia: This is bo-doo!

Russell: You know how scary you are when your mad, Lydia?! Do you? I WAS SCARED! You did exactly what I did to you, to ME! Suck it up!
Lydia: (cracking up) I ‘m not scary when I yell!
Russell: you did the same thing to me!
Lydia: We’d be the most awesome tag team parents ever.
Russell: the sex would be great.

8:57
Jeff/Chima/Michele/Kevin in the living room – talking gay clubs.

9:03 – Lockdown is over.

9:06
Ronnie/Michele – patio

Ronnie: just know, you know, we’ll talk.
Michele: I’m pretty sure you’re still lying to me though.
Ronnie: about what?
Michele: other stuff.
Ronnie: We’ll talk later.

Ronnie/Michele in the pool room
Ronnie: what do you consider a deal? To me a deal is “to the end, me and you”
Michele: No. Vote for me, I’ll vote for you, etc
Ronnie: then yes.

Ronnie gives his version of the conversation with him and Lydia and Kevin again.
Michele: there are a lot of things I was not let in on that that makes me suspicions.
Ronnie: Natalie, Jessie, Chima and I wanted to work with you and didn’t know where you stood. Use four and you, that’s five. My assumption is that we can take it to the end. I know they trust you now, and Jessie said he does too. You can talk to them about that. Russell is trying to pit everyone in the house against me. I’m sorry I didn’t say anything, but after the last week…

Ronnie: honestly Michele, I would tell Russell anything I have too until we get him out of here.
Michele: Just to be honest, I’m not going to decide, until I see a replacement nominee.
Ronnie: If I lose and Russell loses, I would rather the POV not be used at all. I know I have three votes for sure. I understand why you won’t tell me your vote yet. And if he puts you up as a replacement nominee, I guarentee your staying. I swear on my freaking life.

He goes back to the events about the Kevin/Lydia/Ronnie conversation…
Ronnie: you’re our wild card. You’re the secret wild card he’s not expecting. That’s why I told him I didn’t trust you. It’s protection for you. Russell sealed his fate by nominating me today.
Michele: my wishy-washyness is a benefit of this game.

Michele: why is Lydia so happy? She looks so sure that she’s safe
Ronnie: she doesn’t know about me, Natalie, Jessie and Chima! She thinks she’s a pawn.

Ronnie: I think he is trying to drive a wedge between me and Jessie. Chima does too. He’s jealous because I’m closer in the game than he is to Jessie. I walk out the door, if it’s my time, I’m a good sport, I’ll talk to Julie, I’ll laugh and say I should have put him up week two. I’ll do my interviews and I’ll spend time with my wife and love life and be happy I’m a part of this experience. They are voting for me to stay, and then Russell is a sitting duck, he can’t play for HOH. If I go home, Russell will scoop up Jordan, Jeff, Lydia and Kevin, now who’s the majority. I mean you’re smart, you know he doesn’t like you. He didn’t’ say your name… he mentioned you wanted you up in like week one, too.

9:40
Jeff gets called to the DR again Everyone calls him WIZARD!

Jordan/Lydia/Kevin talk about votes and all, and agree that Michele is a question mark.

9:42
Chima: I think Lydia should go home, but I’ll do what you want.
Russell: I want Ronnie to go first, then Lydia can go.
Chima: I will do your bidding master.
Russell: Really?
Chima: really.
Russell: There is no gray area. I want Ronnie gone. We’ll see who votes where, and go from there.
Chima: There will be some people who don’t stick to the plan.
Russell: Jeff, Jordan, Kevin and Michele would vote him out
Chima: so if me, Jessie and Natalie vote for Ronnie
Russell: I’d know. And then you’d basically be telling me that Ronnie’s worth more than Russell, so I’d have a new alliance.
Chima: Why did you hate him so much? He lied to me, but kept me in the house.
Russell: He said he wanted to backdoor me, I approached him about it he said no. I can live with that. I approached him about what I’d snooped on, and he lied to me to my face again. Then he insulted my religion, my faith, I don’t give a fuck what you do..
Chima: so he insulted it when he swore on the bible that’s he didn’t say it
Russell: He lies to me all the time. It’s not once, it’s not twice, it’s a repeated occurring thing. It’s like 7 times!
Chima: have you lied in this game?
Russell: yes I have, but I haven’t lied to the same person 7 times! I’m on a moral high horse, I don’t trust him, he’s shady, and I can’t trust him. I trust you more than him, I hope you trust me more than him too.

Russell: Why are you defending him? Do you trust Ronnie more than Lydia?
Chima: I’m just playing Devil’s Advocate. I may? His lies to me weren’t that big of a deal. But he screwed casey, laura, jeff, Jordan. That’s why they want him out so bad. I mean, I’m gonna vote Ronnie out, I’m gonna do… I’m just saying. Don’t be mad at me
Russell: I’m not mad – but you seem to feel obligated because he kept you that week
Chima: he did, and he didn’t do anything so bad to me after – what did he do to YOU, he kept you in?
Russell: he was setting me up to go out the next week! I caught him! He’s not dumb, he felt he’d get one out, and then he’d set me up – I’d think I owe him and go out. He’s thought it ahead!
Chima: you think Lydia won’t put you up?
Russell: They both will, that’s splitting hairs. I’ll take out the one I dislike the least.

Chima: He didn’t put you up when everyone wanted him too
Russell: He set me up – Even Jessie and Natalie came to me to ask if I was turning! I was like what?! It’s personal to me. I want him out!

Chima: I just believe under all this game play, Ronnie is a good person.

Russell: I don’t deny that. He’s a good person, right now, I just don’t want him here. I’d rather die against one of you guys than him.

Chima: You sure Lydia didn’t just give you a blow job?
(they laugh)

Russell: No more game.

10:24
Jessie: How much squid do you think you can eat without getting sick?
Lydia; I don’t know. Gross.

10:52
Ronnie/Natalie – Have not room
Ronnie: Real quick, I don’t want to get you in trouble. I talked to Michele, and she won’t tell me who she’s gonna vote for until after the POV, and I told her how everything went down, but she wants to wait to say anything until after POV.
Natalie; You have to win it. You have too.
Ronnie: Otherwise my ass is going home. I understand if your not 100% Michele is voting for me if you don’t, I know. I understand and won’t be upset.
Natalie: Maybe one of us will win the Wizard stuff and we’ll be good. You need to win the POV. We can talk about it more after the POV.
Ronnie: Michele is..
Natalie: Even if she’s the bottom one, she has nothing with the other side.
Ronnie: It old her I wouldn’t vote for Jessie, but it’s not like the final anything, we’re just working together. I feel she wants to be in the fold. If you confirm it all and We’re honest with her, she’ll stay with us..

Natalie leaves, and Ronnie goes back to the Pool room.

10:58
Kevin/Natalie in the Posh room
Kevin: Russell says that there’s a lot of shit starting, so I just want you to know to come to me if there’s anything – just come to me directly. Apparently he was listening at the door, and I told him everything.
Natalie: did he really say things about me?
Kevin: Lydia was upset, and I was like think rationally and calmly, and he came in and was like stirring it up, so I told him that anything that was said, it wasn’t serious… He said thank you for confirming, because he heard everything. There was no serious talk about going after Natalie. Ronnie told him that we were scheming and plotting against all of you – which was totally not what happened, and he told me I secured my place off the block because he’d heard the whole thing and I confirmed it. I will admit to being in the room when conversations were made but I never said anything against you and Jessie.
Natalie: you never said the chess analogy…
Kevin: no – it’s like two different conversations are being merged. With Michele, it was about being safe next week, with Lydia it was about the chess pieces and it was the king and queen, the hoh and you,
Natalie: and you want to take out the queen.
Kevin: No.
Natalie: just throwing it out there. I’m not making this shit up.
Kevin: I have no reason or desire to take our team out – not until final five. I hope you all are under the same understanding. I know Jessie feels shaky with me, I’ll talk to him and renew it with him, but I’m concerned with Lydia on a friendship level. I don’t want her to get hurt..
Natalie: How would she get hurt
Kevin: The slop thing, he wanted to punch her in the face
Natalie: he didn’t say punch, he said bop and he was just mad. You’re right, it’s uncalled for. I understand that.

Jessie joins – lather rinse repeat.

They run up to report to Russell
Russell: It doesn’t really matter. If you want to stick your necks out for him, you’re trading me in for Ronnie. That’s all.

These conversations continued along the same line until 4am. Jessie and Natalie continue to talk about how to save Ronnie, and no one is really certain where Michele stands in it all…
