A really honorable man wouldn't be involved in a one-night stand, and if for some reason, he decided he wasn't THAT honorable, he would use some type of protection. But a truly HONORABLE man would pay the child support necessary to raise someone he conceived.

Oh, sure. Nicole could absolutely count on Michelle (who hates her), Natalie (who dislikes her) and do-nothing James to vote FOR her to make it to the end. Would Vic and Paul vote her out given the chance. I bet they would, but I don't see that there will be any altruism on the part of the other showmance and their sidekick either. That's also a three against two situation. With the guys, she has worst case scenario of two versus two. This.

Just saw a CBS reminder that this show would end on Wed, 8 Sep. I guess that means a double episode that night.

Brady's obsession is puzzling. I know that at first he thought it might bring him a promotion, but really, at what cost? Now he's being reprimanded and dismissed by the FBI, and yet he continues on the job. Unless Brady solves the case, and it doesn't involve any of the Hawthorne family, his marriage will probably be over. At the very least, I doubt he'll be invited to Sunday dinner. Besides, I don't like the character and I think his acting method leaves a bit to be desired.

I really would love for Wed at 8 to be divided between Survivor and TAR. Give Survivor fall and spring and TAR gets winter and summer. It would make Wed my favorite night of the week all year. Big Brother can always be scheduled for another night. Wed & Thu are too close anyway. Make it Sun, Tue and Thu.

Nicole said the other night that she went for a 2-year nursing course. If she went to a community college, it might qualify as an AA, but if she went to just a nurses' training school, it's state certification here. Depends on your state laws. Bridgette does have a degree because she attended college and nursing school.

Kendall, I haven't seen one thing about this so I really don't want to comment. From the updates included, it only says Nicole was scared of Z the first day (doesn't mention Corey's feelings or Da'Vonne). I think I know what you're suggesting, but I'm not the sharpest pencil in the box so.......... If Nicole was scared of Z, perhaps it was because Z came in with an attitude or perhaps she looked so hot that Nicole was worried about the comparison. I'm neither a Nicole nor a Corey fan, so I'm not defending them, other than to say I'd rather be sure what she means before I condemn her. I don't think Nicole and Locasta (sp?) had any problems last year. Perhaps you can point me to Corey's remarks so I can better respond.

You probably are right. It was way too late for me to be still up and around, and it really did register in my head as two degrees. Majors does, however, make more sense. I wasn't suggesting anything about the age of the house residents, although I do think it was better when we had at least some older folks. I was merely commenting on the fact that you previously mentioned how young Natalie was, and now again, that had she been more mature she would have handled the nickname better. I was simply pointing out that ALL of them are very young, and perhaps if they were ALL more mature, there never would have been a need to handle the situation in the first place.

Casting calls out for a young woman to play the role of Kat, another young woman to play Isabel, and yet a third to portray a worldly young lady. They already have too many women. Can't they cast some men as well?

Except for James, Natalie is the oldest person in the house at this moment. Bridgette, Josea & Zakiyah are all younger than she is as well, and Bronte and Paulie are the same age as she. This is a very young crowd. Besides, Natalie is the best educated person in the house. She told James, I think Mon night out by the hot tub, that she has two bachelor degrees. There are some, like Nicole, who have no degrees at all. While she (and I) find FT offensive, we're talking a bunch of kids here.....at least from where I sit.

Agree with your whole post, but the bolded explains why I never liked Mary Higgins Clark books.

Hell, Meech and Nat now hate Paul because he lied over French Fries. I don't know what it was all about. It's all part of showing him that they wanted him out and he was a spoil sport to go ahead and win the Veto. Don't like Paul that much myself, but this is getting ridiculous. I guess now that they're in the HOH, no one should ruin the scenario they had created.

Not for me. A whodunit should (in my view) introduce me to all the characters, give me reasons why each could have or could NOT have dun it, and then let me guess or analyze.

How old would Sophie have been 14 years ago? Would Mama Hawthorne have offed Daddy Hawthorne to protect Sophie? Would she even have killed him to protect Jack? This is my problem with anyone outside the immediate family. Who or what could possibly frighten Madeline enough for her to murder Mitch.........and why the heck does Garrett accept his mother's act with just a sigh.

I'm older than you so the last time I saw that outfit was in Blazing Saddles.

Agreed, returning players sucks.....not just with Big Brother, but with any reality show. Once you are offed, eliminated or whatever, it should be over for you. Why can't these shows just figure out their schedule and get enough people to accomplish that. Now that would be Unexpected.

But was Paulie even involved with Z at that time? I thought that happened during the time when no one was sure whether it was Z or Tiff he was interested in. But Paulie was with Z when Nat decided to show him her boob wrinkles or whatever the hell they were. And when he said he didn't quite see, she had no trouble lifting her shirt again. I don't understand how someone asking for a kiss makes one more "uncomfortable" while showing off your mammary glands is okay.

For me, the problem wouldn't be the manicure, but rather the stupidity she exhibits.

I totally agree with you that Natalie will be safe from eviction if/when Paulie returns for a week; I think it will probably even be 2 weeks. His first line of action will be to get either Paul or James out, and then he will come for Natalie. She won't make it any higher than F4 though. I no longer want Bridgette to come back because she'll just be walking out the door again as soon as she has a bite to eat. If Da'Vonne returns, she'll want to join up with Meech, not Natalie or Nicole. I doubt she'll be giving Natalie any bouquets for saving Nicole. Nicole has earned the right to her smirk tonight, much as it pisses me off. She has talked James and Natalie into giving her total safety

It only sucks for Natalie. It may work out just fine for Victor and Michelle. And Paul, whom I really don't care about. But I'm afraid it will be Paulie who comes back - not suggesting rigging, just a feeling. If so, that will suck for Natalie as well. But they have talked (all of them) about there not being enough people to make it to the end, and that someone would probably be brought back from jury. Paulie, Corey and Nicole discussed it extensively at the kitchen table the night before the eviction. All of them, at one time or another, have counted out the weeks and the number of houseguests, and all of them realized that they are one person short. I don't believe for a moment that Natalie wants Vic to stay. She and James have been discussing it on and off for over a week. She's just saying that now because she doesn't want Meech to know she lied to her. She's just afraid to lose Meech at this point.

Really sorry Victor is going. I like him more than anyone else in the house. Would not be surprised if it's a Paulie-Corey final 2.

I don't think the returnee will be eligible for HOH, but I don't necessarily think they'd be the target either. If Paul or Victor come back, I do think it will be a short stay. However, if Paulie comes back, I think Nicole & Corey will make sure he stays.

You're not alone, but to be fair, I never met her and don't know her personally. Just know too many people who have either gone to school with her or have worked with her at MSG. Rightly or wrongly, that has formed my opinion. I don't know any NY Jets cheerleaders, and that's okay with me because I'm Big Blue all the way. They, however, may have a very different opinion.

I so wanted Bridgette to be the one to come back, but mostly so she could help get rid of Nicole and Corey. Now I hope it's whoever they get out this week who comes back. Don't want Bridgette to be helping with Nicole's game. Don't like Nicole and I don't like her boy toy. Michelle was never going with Paul. He prefers Natalie and was going to take her. Victor was going to take Michelle. I don't mind Paul winning either. He's just not my first choice. But he sure as hell ain't my last either. That's Miss Nicole. I find it offensive as well, but justified. Nicole has just gotten Natalie to do her bidding. That would make me happy too.

This is what I was thinking as well, except that Garrett was fond of her (and she of him) even before she killed Caleb to protect him. I think that Mitch and Garrett then took the body away to bury it, and that's the body Cam saw that night. It was decided Garrett should go away to keep Tessa from remembering, and perhaps being blamed should Caleb's body be discovered. No. 2 for me. Caleb was the original SBK, and with his death, the killings halted, most probably because his partner couldn't handle it on his/her own. Could it have been Maddie's mother, and does she know about Garrett and/or Tessa killing Caleb, and that's why they have been paying her off? Can't think why the reporter though, unless it has something to do with the cover-up that Brady suspects. Jack: His visit to Garrett was so cute that I actually peeked out from under the covers to smile. .
