Derrick using the "you're taking the food out of my daughter's mouth." And he keeps calling Zach a dumb kid. So over his condescension.

OMG, ya'll done made me forget the chile's real name. I had to go to Jokers to look it up. LOL

What was so telling about the reveal is when they went to tell the girls (and Christine picked up on the fact the boys had already been told as a group), Frankie insisted they move to the living room for better camera coverage. While Nicole and Caleb (and initially Victoria) seemed the most starstruck, I have no doubt that Derrick will corral the troops to get Frankie out in the coming weeks. He's already mentioned the game being rigged for Frankie (the BotB challenge and Team America), so knowing this info will help his manipulations. And yea, Caleb asking if Frankie was lying about being gay was comedy gold.

So, Nicole has gone to Frankie, Zach, and Derrick, and in her whiny voice complains she doesn't know who to trust. Dearie, at this point, stop trying to find someone to trust and have a friend in the house. Play the game to win the money.

Derrick already thinking ahead, talking to Victoria to throw the BotB if she gets put up with Nicole or Donny. He's 3 steps ahead of everyone else. As much as I hate to say it, he's as smart and wily as Dan Gheesling.

Unfortunately, if they didn't get rid of Grodner after a season of racism and homophobia, they won't get rid of her. The only hope is if the show takes a ratings dive.

Yes, that was Ariana.

Seems like Nicole/Christine friendship is back on. These houseguests are idiots! Derrick totally deserves to win. He's been playing these idiots perfectly. Sigh. ETA: Nicole is now apologizing to Christine for throwing her under the bus.

Well Nicole really only has herself to blame. When you are HoH, you need to get out the big dogs when you can. Otherwise, they might just turn on you. She was in control this week and she could have gotten 1 of the guys out if she had put up 2 guys at the beginning rather than Jocasta. Also, she started out with a small alliance of Hayden, Donny and herself. But then when Derrick and Cody got in their heads about this Rationale alliance, she went for it hook, line, and sinker (same for Hayden).

I think Donny was out of breathe.

Wow, so glad Donny won PoV. Nicole is pissed. I hope her and Donny can win HoH but the odds are against them. Ariana Grande, her mother, and Nonna were in the audience. Double eviction is always so exciting.

Yea, there will be a separate thread for the episode once the show ends. Should be up in a bit. This thread is supposed to be for feed discussion only -- just a heads' up ya'll.

I dunno, I'm still thinking Zach is going. Production probably wants to spice things up for Thursday's edit as usual and make us think Zach is staying. Also, since Zach is going to the jury, it poisons him against voting for Nicole/Donny/Hayden. But I could be wrong *shrug*

I wonder if Donny reads a lot of books? The reason I ask, is several times, he's reading labels of the food. I don't know if that's just out of boredom or if he's like me, if there's no books around, I'll read anything just to read.

I think Jocasta has no respect for Victoria's whining about really silly stuff and probably the loss in the wedding cake challenge - she probably sees her as totally useless (pot meet kettle). I remember early on, Victoria went on forever about someone wearing and ruining her swimming suit bra - either Nicole or Christine. Jocasta told her quite plainly that if you don't want someone wearing your stuff you have to learn to say No to people. Victoria acknowledged that made sense but continued on and on about the bra anyway and I remember the camera panned to Jocasta's face several times where she was just looking at Victoria. Later on Victoria did a similar thing complaining about Amber taking her make-up. So I chalk Jocasta's feeling towards Victoria as not really liking her immaturity.

From Jokers: Victoria confronting (lightly) Nic about some clothes that she thinks Nicole stole from her. Nic says its hers,Vic says its not Vic says she had it since she was 7-8 years old. Nic says maybe you washed it and it faded and it looks like mine? Do ya'll have to go back to kindergarten and write your name on your clothes tag?

Another Calebism: He wanted to be a stenographer because In high school he typed 100 wpm

Didn't work for Amber or Brittany. And Amber was called a maid and made fun of for cleaning and doing laundry for them. So, I don't blame Jocasta one bit. The only reason I would do it is, is I just can't live in filth and squalor. Damned if you do and damned if you don't.

Thanks Morbs for giving more context.

Yes, she has mentioned several times about her Israeli roots, there was a religious discussion that Jocasta was part of that discussed the Jewish religion, and she has mentioned several times the difficulty she has with English due to her first language being Hebrew. She also mentioned that she would have rather been tied to Cody rather than Caleb, because of Caleb's comments about the Holocaust were gross. This latter was just pulled from Jokers, so not sure if he said anything else outside of the weight loss comment from above.

Yea Zach said something similar when he talked about the time he shaved his head and how it made him look like a concentration camp survivor. Lack of a filter or sensitivity.

Gotta give Nicole props for this thought: She's thinking of telling Christine that if she uses the veto that she will put up Donny but instead put up Frankie. Sometimes I wish these folks wouldn't think out loud and just do it. Because if Production really wants Frankie to stay, then they will influence Christine. ETA: Loved Big Brother putting Frankie on blast. From Jokers: Frankie leaves WC without washing his hands. BB voice: "Did you wash your hands?" Jo & Chris laugh. Frankie says he didn't touch his dick, but turns around and washes his hands anyway.

In Cody's HoH blog, he said "The whole flirty social game I'm playing is not an easy one to keep up with." So, I think all of this touchy feely is a big part of his strategy. I noticed after Amber was put up on the block, he was not as close with her last week.

Oh goody, Christine is also on slop for two weeks.

Caleb has to be chained to Victoria like Adam and Eve - ROFL. ETA: He also has to be on slop for two weeks
