Caleb doesn't know about the Detonators really. He was told about it a little bit, but not the complete truth. And it got glossed over and he dismissed it. He really does believe he has been running things all season. He doesn't realize that it has been Derrick. She knows she's not, but she was hoping to get 2nd place with Derrick getting first place. She even told him that if he was going to get voted out, she'd rather ask if she can go in his place because she wants him to win it all so badly. I want them to do a montage of Cody's absolutely disgusting sniffing and swallowing of his nose snot. It is non-stop and I want to gag every time he does it. I literally have never met anyone that does that - kid or adult.

Yeah, I have lived in New England all my life. I can only think of 2 people I know that pronounce it "but-ton" with the T sounds. Everyone here just says "buh-in" without the T sounds.

ITA. I find him super hot.

What was this?! Wow!

LOl I thought that at first too, but I rewound it, and she actually said "Oh, baloney"

Yes, that's what it was. It was if she got the second-worst color, she would not be able to use the iPad.

Yes it was used a lot back when Nicole was really popular as a name, in the 70s/80s

Agree 100%. That was a really (no pun intended) strange way to defend himself. If I was her husband that would've made me MORE upset. He was so flippant about it. Very disrespectful.

But it was time to film, she didn't have a choice. The cameras are there waiting for her to "spontaneously" talk to her friends about how she will feel when Javi leaves. It was literally her job to talk to them right then. I've seen it happen to Chelsea too, a few times. Aubree needs her attention with something but she has to send her away or snaps at her because she (Chelsea) is literally surrounded by camera people waiting for her to have a conversation with a friend about esthetician school or call her Dad about legal papers. You can tell when the Moms get frustrated that they HAVE TO pretend to have a casual conversation right at that moment, even if the kids are off the wall. They can't tell their friend they'll call them back later b/c their job is to get the filming done right then. I also think that's why Chelsea and her parents (especially her mom) have that smirk on their face sometimes during these conversations. You can tell they always tell her mom to ask about Adam as soon as she walks through the door. Some people on the show are better at making it look like a spontaneous conversation, but I think Chelsea's mom feels awkward on camera so she always kind of smiles nervously and her voice shakes a bit.

Yep. Every time Janelle brags that Jace only behaves for Nathan it gives me the chills. It's not respect, Jenelle, it's pure fear. Which deep down she probably does know. But she twists everything around to come off better on the show. She is so very aware of the cameras. She (and Leah does it a lot too) thinks she's so crafty with the spin she puts on things for this show, but she is so transparent. They especially do it on the reunion show, and it makes me crazy that Dr. Drew doesn't call them out on it. Nathan is so fake with his collared shirts and his suits, acting like he's some Prince Charming swooping in and saving Jenelle, too.And becoming some great father figure to Jace, and making a perfect little family. Talk about aware of the cameras. The way he talks, it's SO obvious how fake he is. I won't be the least bit shocked if he snaps one day and we're reading about a murder/suicide. He has some deep issues, that one. Sadly, the tweens that look up to Jenelle and Nathan can't even see through HIS b.s. facade, let alone Jenelle's. Luckily Barb can, and I hope she is very careful with Jace being around that psycho Nathan.

I think Christine was upset that the tell-all was going to end with a "Just Kody and Robyn" segment. That Meri, Christine, and Janelle were all going to go off-stage while they discussed future baby plans with just Kody & Robyn. As if they are the main couple and the other 3 women are just extra wives off to the side. OR I think she was upset b/c they were discussing which wives recently had said they didn't have enough time with Kody, and she was still upset over that issue. We've seen her many times say that she doesn't feel she gets her share of time with him (hence the gym mats in her garage deal. Maybe with all the babymaking, Kody has been at Robyn's more than ever, and that was a trigger for her and she needed a break off set. In real life, as we saw when she and Aspyn were giggling over Robyn possibly being pregnant, I think she is ok with a new baby. I don't think she resents a new baby in the family. I just think she feels Robyn gets more than her share of Kody's time, attention, and focus. And they were about to highlight that on the tell-all.

Yes, they do that on this show. Past houseguests have also let it leak that the DR seems to be pushing for so-and-so to go, or to stay. Of course due to their contracts they can't really put it out there that this happens, but little bits of info have gotten out. They ask leading questions and gear the conversations so that it gets the person in the DR thinking that they should go a different route. There was one year where it was a MAJOR switch (re: who they were going to vote out) and I'm drawing a blank on who the people were, or which season, but there was an audio leak from the DR and it was definitely the DR's doing. And then the Houseguests kind of talked about it in code words afterwards too.

Yes It literally makes me gag. I can't stand that! Just the thought of what it is and where it's going makes me want to vomit. I could never live with someone who did that, and I am very low-maintenance normally.

Me too. I don't know what it is about her, either that bugs me.

They discussed this in a previous season and in their book, and they were all emphatic that they would completely accept it. Janelle even pointed out that in a group of this many kids, at least one of them is bound to be gay. And Christine said one of her girls had already come to her with questions about it and they had a good talk. I know you can't always believe everything they say, but they came across as 100% believable on this topic.

The fitness trackers are so dumb. Just another advertisement. Although Julie did say they WOULD affect the game. Seems kind of unfair if the HGs don't know that. Oh nooooooooooo. Big Brother Gods, please spare us.

I have zero patience for Leah's ranting about her medical bills. I have two children with disabilities like Ali's, and my yearly gross income is $50k. Leah has MTV money, Jeremy probably makes double or triple what I do, and anytime Leah gets a magazine cover/article/interview she rakes in major $$$. I mean believe me, I get the extra stress and problems that come along with a disabled child, since I have two. Especially the extra expenses. But I'd trade places with Leah in a heartbeat. I can barely pay my mortgage each month and my house is a piece of shit. Then I have to hear her whining about money on her $$$$$$how? Beyond obnoxious.
