K-9

This episode showed the HGs competing in the HoH comp. In the final few seconds of the broadcast, the camera showed Raven's the large pacemaker protruding from her stomach. From Raven's BB website interview with Jeff:

I don't watch the feeds or read spoiler threads, but my guess is Elena and Mark threw that comp since they had nothing to gain by winning the veto.

Jessica deflected Josh's POV ceremony verbal attack on her and casually fired back a shot of her own. Josh makes himself an easy target though. Waiting for a confrontation between her and a more socially adept HG later this season.

This is a non-spoiler discussion thread of BB19 HG Jessica Graf. Jessica began the season in a large alliance, but she's lost likeability with her inappropriate comment in reference to Alex and aggressive confrontations with Megan and Christmas.

The upcoming temptation is the Halting Hex. "Whether on the block or not, they can halt any one of the next four evictions during the live show, making it a non-eviction night." Voting ends July 19th at 12pm Eastern.

Spotlight moment from this episode was the conversation between Kevin and Jason: Kevin asked Jason if the ladies are going to sleep with Cody while in the house. Jason nodded affirmatively and said "Yeah." “Where?” “Anywhere.” "Whattaya mean, anywhere? The bleepin’ weight bench?"

Yay, Cheyenne is back! But this is not a good episode to watch while eating.

The show changed up most of the kids' stories: Haley is single and over Andy. She was fired from her job at the fashion firm (to get the position she had to critique/berate the assistant's style choice to impress the manager). Haley ought to have made some connections during her time there, so hope she networks and lands another opportunity. This is going to be a major change for Alex without being enrolled in school for a while. She's been constantly challenging herself in school. With all the down time it will be interesting to see what she gets involved in this semester. Manny's prom date was so thrilled when he asked. They both liked each other. Guess it didn't work out, and now he's chasing someone else.

At least Nasim makes an appearance in the episode. Nick's 'romance' storyline without any Reagan reaction is weak (like she's imaginary).

Looks like Kevin is going to have various jobs throughout the season... kind of like on "King of Queens" when Doug worked as a substitute high school teacher.

2nd place in BB18 for Paul. Enjoyed his season this summer.

Going with the fixer-upper house (and renovating) gives more time for Cece & Schmidt at the loft.

Final Three for Paul!

Was Corey's cleaning montage done as an homage to a certain film-maker's style? Corey's montage reminded me a little of this powerful scene from "Order of the Phoenix" in which Harry Potter was possessed by Voldemort: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_Fbwh384WQ

What a ride this season has been for Victor: from the bottom to a legit shot at final four with his alliance of Paul and Nicorey.

Thanks!

Corey was the only one who placed an egg in the Have to avoid becoming a HaveNot. No one else did. Which HGs became the HaveNots?

Should Dan have put the quotes around the word cousin? Quoting "new" doesn't seem to make the same impact.

Will be interesting to see when the HGs learn about the juror buyback: before or after the eviction vote. An announcement ahead of the vote will waterdown the rest of the process just like the limbo of the One Way/Round Trip ticket until Julie opened the envelope. Tonight I'd rather see the HG first get evicted, complete a straightforward interview, see the goodbye messages, and then have Julie gather all the HGs in the living room for the live announcement.

The phrasing used is that a juror has the "chance" to return. Most likely a juror will return since the show is holding off the vote for the next Care Package until Friday August 26th at 3AM Eastern/12AM Pacific.

HGs complaining about the Black Box smell... breathe through the mouth! That 30-second advantage Michelle won at the carnival (S18.Ep28): had it been won by Corey it could've given him time to get one more ring to win.

In S18.Ep29, Nicole spilled a bottle of nail polish on the furniture. There was a flattened box of Froot Loops right there in the scene. Froot-Loop Dingus!

If Da'Vonne wins the Juror Buy Back, then it would be her third attempt at the game.

In Season 18, Episode 28 (08.19.2016), we saw James's prank of putting crackers in the the HGs beds. Victor was justifiable annoyed, due to potential for ants. James told Victor to lighten up. James said in his DR that he was worried Victor would come unglued, so for that reason he would back off.
