Day 33 - Saturday - August 17, 2024

As I mentioned last night, there was quite a display to greet Angela for her birthday, put together by Chelsie, Leah, Makensy, T'kor, Tucker after Angela had gone to bed. Her name was spelled out on the walls in the skybridge/lounge with streamers (Diary provided them tape) and more streamers were hung in the Have-not hallway. A cute gift basket arrangement was set up with jars of pickles and olives, plus lozenges, tea bags, and party hats. Together they did a really nice job of creating something from nothing. I didn't see Angela's reaction but chances are that happened behind wakeup fishies. She later said she loved it and appreciated the thought and effort they put into it.

Veto players were drawn around 9am: Joseph and Makensy will play with Tucker, Brooklyn, Cam, Quinn, and Chelsie will host. That makes this the first veto comp Angela hasn't played in. As always, there was endless speculation and guesses what the competition would be. Adoptable anipals came along for the comp relatively early, around 11.15am.

Before that, there was a lot of sniping and bitterness going on. Brooklyn tattled to Tucker about Quinn telling her he was Tucker's pawn, which Tucker had told Quinn to keep to himself. (He didn't: he told a number of them.) Tucker denied it to Brooklyn, and stuck to saying Quinn was his target, and he didn't want to be in jury with Quinn. Brooklyn then griped to her unicorn roomies about the vote blindside some more, and "spineless players who don't watch the show." She told Rubina she wasn't mad at her, she got got and that was the game. Leah went on another gripe-a-thon about Cam. Quinn and Joseph had a long chat with Quinn saying he was in a bad spot and could go home pre-jury, and he was annoyed the game could become comp-focused. He told Joseph he'd spilled about Pentagon and Collective, Joseph said he also spilled about Collective, and they laughed about how much lying they've both done. And Quinn said Leah's reaction to his nomination was "at least you know you'll be in the episode." Ouch.

Feeds were down just over five hours for the return of Hide and Go Veto, which Tucker won: his third veto in a row. Cleanup was in progress when feeds came back and the house didn't look as trashed as some years, but they did flip mattresses and etc, so they'd put a lot back together before we joined. T'kor's bedsheet got torn, and Tucker was ranting about Quinn trashing his things. (There was apparently a confrontation about that before feeds returned.) Tucker said something to Quinn about it, who said he didn't do it, and "don't put that on me." Angela (who should just keep laying low and being quiet) told Quinn, Kimo, Tucker separately that it was Cam, but later Brooklyn confessed to Chelsie it was her who threw Tucker's things around. Joseph finished second in the comp, and the nominees all found each other's cards. Tucker took Brooklyn aside to tell her she was only on the block with Quinn because they're the smartest players, and he implied again his target remains Quinn. Joseph told Tucker that Quinn had been telling everyone everything, and that it was "fucked up" Brooklyn didn't say anything when various others were being blamed for trashing Tucker's things. Leah said T'kor should design a Build-a-Bear that says "mm-hmm."

Joseph shmoozed Tucker about having partnered up with the best guy and Tucker said the same. Joseph also confessed that Chelsie and Cedric approached him early to work together. He asked if Tucker was still targeting Brooklyn but he didn't confirm, and said he'd wait and see. Kimo told Tucker he'd overhead Makensy and Quinn bashing Tucker, and Tucker said he wants to confront Chelsie late tomorrow night to offer a last chance to come clean before the veto meeting about Pentagon. Eventually the rest of 6th Avenue was in HOH (except Angela, and on her birthday!) to discuss renom options. Tucker said he'd likely use his veto on Quinn and put up Chelsie. All agreed Cam didn't seem to talk game with anyone and hadn't done well in comps, so wasn't a threat. Despite some subtle pushing in Chelsie's favor, Tucker said if it came down to her versus Cam, it had to be Chelsie who goes (mostly because she continues to lie about Pentagon). Joseph left and sent up Angela (whew), and Tucker repeated his tentative plan to replace Quinn with Chelsie, with Brooklyn still the target. And to boot Chelsie if the final vote is her versus Cam. Angela told them about Brooklyn pitching a moms F2 on her first HOH week, possibly adding Kenney, and Angela said her "instincts were to get rid of her." Makensy then met with Tucker and seemed to believe that he plans to keep noms the same.

The yard finally opened after many days inside, and they all cheered. Kimo and Joseph shared a pickle. Most of them enjoyed having fresh air and laundry access again and they enjoyed a nice summer evening. T'kor told Kimo if Chelsie goes up and stays on the block, she won't vote her out. She said "it's just annoying" how these decisions come about (but she didn't say anything during the alliance meeting about it so we may be in for another situation like last week). Brooklyn told Chelsie she'll tell her secret if they swear to never vote against each other. Chelsie said they never would anyway, and Brooklyn said it was "maybe the reason" she was cast, and that she'd planned not to tell anyone until finale night, but finally confessed she was a former Mrs America. Chelsie hit the deck which kind of surprised me: I thought they already knew about that. I was expecting her to say she's friends with Aaryn.

Leah told Kimo "somebody" said she "talks stupid" because she says "like and da-da-da all the time, and blah-blah-blah, but like, I'm literally a girl." Several of them sang Happy Birthday to Angela and gave her some slop cookies. Angela reiterated to Kimo about her early F2 with Brooklyn, and how she never really wanted to be part of that, but she was happy to be part of this new group. Quinn asked Joseph "do you think I have the votes to stay?" Joseph responded "I think that we're trying to work on that." Ooph. Joseph, Kimo, T'kor met in Have-not, and Joseph asked "what are you guys thinking for this week?" T'kor said she really doesn't want Chelsie on the block, and Kimo said he doesn't think it's the best move. T'kor suggested Makensy as a better renom, and again said she wouldn't vote out Chelsie. Joseph acted as a good middle-man for Tucker and his agenda, and he said it wouldn't be beneficial for them to evict Quinn, and his preference would be Brooklyn going. T'kor said she'll talk further with Tucker about it all, and maybe she will this time? We'll see. Leah retold to Angela and Brooklyn about "somebody" (a female) dissing her language, and she quoted her favorite poem "Like Totally Whatever," and talked about her intelligence and her self-worth. Again. Another rendition of Happy Birthday was sung to Angela, and Joseph ran a lengthy season rehash to Rubina and T'kor.

GET YOUR FEEDS to get the real story. It's a very messy, chaotic season so far.

Day 34 - Sunday - August 18, 2024

Quinn began the day saying he was screaming in his sleep and hoped he didn't disturb his roomies. Brooklyn said she only heard him say "stop" but she was so tired it didn't bother her. Kimo took the Makensy renom idea to Tucker, who said he'd think about it, and he might expose Collective and Pentagon (again), and Quinn had to keep believing he'll be evicted. Joseph then met with Tucker to tell him Kimo and T'kor were going to push for Makensy renom, and it was Brooklyn who messed up Tucker's things, and he said he felt Quinn should stay. T'kor with Kimo told Quinn they were fighting for him, the Rubina vote was just about keeping Rubina and not them choosing Tucker over him, and Tucker now knew Quinn didn't mess up his things, and she said Quinn still has their votes if he's still on the block Thursday. Someone said Rubina told Quinn that Tucker's going to veto him off the block. I've been unable to confirm that (no Flashback problems) but if so, Quinn will undoubtedly mention it since he's allergic to keeping things to himself.

Chelsie told Brooklyn she didn't think Kimo and T'kor were smart enough to orchestrate last week's flip, and she said her preferred boot order of the women was Leah, Angela, T'kor, Rubina, Makensy. You always have to factor in who someone's talking to, but let's not forget how hard T'kor has been going to bat for Chelsie this week. Chelsie then did her daily talk with us, predicting Tucker won't use veto and Quinn would be evicted. She also rattled off some Cam and Leah gossip, and when she got to the Cam's dirty laundry segment, feedmasters did a couple cycles of quick in/out zooms as she mentioned "ass crack juice." Joseph had a check-in with Angela, which was nice because she's had a couple meltdowns about being left out of gametalks. She later told Rubina she thought Joseph might be a little suss because he pulled her aside for a gametalk. Tucker told Leah everyone was snakes, and he didn't know if he'll veto Quinn now because Quinn had spilled about that plan after being told to keep it secret. And Tucker told Rubina that Brooklyn, Cam, Chelsie were all ratting each other out. Brooklyn talked about Mrs America more to Chelsie, inspiring a new drinking game to your left. Most of them spent a lot of time in the yard, enjoying their day off.

Joseph admitted to us he has a crush on Leah, but said he wasn't going to let it jeopardize his game, and he was aware Quinn has a crush on her and she may still have a crush on Cam. Joseph later talked about that crush with Kimo. Brooklyn and Chelsie met with Rubina in HOH and stressed they were upset about being blindsided and not because Rubina stayed. Brooklyn said she wants to stay and continue to live and work with people she trusts: Rubina, Tucker, Chelsie. Chelsie added that nobody expected Rubina and Cedric to be the finals noms, so there was never much discussion about that (ha!). Rubina later reported to Tucker and said she didn't believe a word of any of it. Makensy joined them in HOH, and Tucker. Angela popped in like a friendly neighbor, then left again, and met with Joseph to say what a good talker Brooklyn is, correctly assuming they were conniving in HOH (at least before Makensy arrived). Kimo later told Angela that Joseph had said a couple times he wants to be sure she's included in alliance plans, which pleased her no end.

Tucker told Joseph tomorrow's veto meeting will be "fuckin epic" and Joseph said he was enjoying Tucker's method acting. Quinn asked Tucker if they could meet later, with T'kor, Kimo, Rubina and Tucker said it'd be better if they talked one-on-one first, then with the others later. They did that right away on the backyard balcony and their positions and body language spoke volumes. Tucker said he still wasn't sure if he was using his veto or not, and then he said Brooklyn had ratted out her F2 with Quinn, who said "that hurts," and Tucker went on to say Brooklyn also ratted out Quinn's don't-tell convo with Tucker about Quinn going up as a pawn. Oop. Tucker said "you fucked up but you admitted it" where Brooklyn and Chelsie did not admit to their crimes. Tucker's trashed clothes came up again and Tucker said he now knew Brooklyn did that. He said he'll see how people react to the speeches tomorrow, and "you have to lie and deceive at certain points, some are loving it and some are acting like children." He said he has a whole laundry list of things he plans to bring up, and he also mentioned how Quinn had turned down his offers to partner up. Quinn took it all well, and then asked "in the exit press, do I hate your guts or not?" Yep, he did. Quinn told Rubina they'd met alone, and outted his F2 with Brooklyn and that she'd told Tucker about it.

Brooklyn met with Tucker and said she hopes Quinn's the target (she is), and that she'll stay if it's him versus her on Thursday (she won't), and she doesn't know where people stand if it's her versus Cam. And she said the only person she has in there is Chelsie, which Tucker will surely add to his laundry list if he puts up Chelsie in Quinn's place. Meanwhile I haven't heard Cam have a single gametalk with anyone since going on the block, which is kind of mind-boggling. He went to HOH after Brooklyn left, but not to pitch to Tucker: he just went up there to use the bathroom. His non-game is an unusual game style, but it seems to be working for him. Chelsie lost her mind finding a bunch of empty drawers in the rock room because Cam's clothes are everywhere except in them. Cam walked in while she was sweeping, turned around, and walked back out. Cam finally made it back to HOH where Tucker told him through his toothbrush that he's still a pawn, and he didn't even need to win AI Arena. He added Cam would know how the votes would go by everyone's reactions after the Arena comp, and Cam said everyone ran to Brooklyn and Quinn after Tucker made his noms, and not one person came to him.

Brooklyn suggested to a group that "hamsters are a conspiracy that no one talks about" because they're never seen in the wild. Leah said she's more concerned about eels because nobody knows how they reproduce. Angela learned to twerk and she was delighted about that. Kimo told T'kor there are "things going on" that have him confused, including Tucker being friendly with both Leah and Makensy, and T'kor suggested he talk to Tucker about his conversations.

Tucker told Kimo he is using his veto but told him not to tell anyone, even T'kor. 6th Avenue less Joseph (Tanks) met in HOH for Tucker to rehash the weekend, and then he told them all he'll be using his veto on Quinn and replacing him with Chelsie. Brooklyn remains his target, and if she wins AI Arena, it's Chelsie. Sounds like we could have another Monday afternoon of popcorn-worthy feeds. Plan accordingly.

Ratings - Sorry Not Sorry edition

Ratings are based on entertainment value

Noms count: original/renom/twist


 
I get that they want to get more use out of the hologram box (especially after the Deep Fake Flop) but this Instigator thing sounds potentially lame. Saboteur, America's Player, and probably other past twists included assigned pranks that were just dumb. And what happened to Julie saying she'd be 'more involved than ever' this season? I was expecting Chenbot to annihilate Ainsley, maybe in a VR cage match, and then take over giving out comp instructions and delivering puns.

Chelsie Baham - 27

She underestimates everyone around her, and that often backfires on BB (and in life). But if there's a comp about ass crack cracks, she's got it in the bag.

Joseph Rodriguez - 30 31

Kimo Apaka - 35

He'd easily win a belching contest, but this isn't.

PS Side note, I'm currently reading Eruption by Michael Crichton with James Patterson, and I'm continually thinking about Kimo and his family as the town of Hilo is threatened with total destruction. (The entire planet's also threatened, but I'll hold the spoilers.)

I'm glad she's like aware of like how often she says like, and like I can almost get behind her like defiance about that. But like I don't know if she's like aware how like often she actually like says it. But like that's okay. Also I wonder if she thinks this is like a radio show where like every second of silence must be like filled.

I'd like to see him put in as much effort to the game he's currently playing as he does about his post-show expectations. And I'd prefer if that effort was more genuine and less performative.

Rubina Bernabe - 35

HOH 1 - Veto 3 - Noms 1/0/2 - HN 1

 

Tucker Des Lauriers - 30

Won: Week 1 mascot/can't compete or vote

HOH 1 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/1 - HN 0

 

Cedric Hodges - 21
Twitter - Instagram
Single - recruit
Former Marine
Boise, ID (orig Running Springs, CA)

4th evicted - Day 31

He prepped by watching analysis clips and didn't see any full seasons so he had an unusual balance of BB lore and knowledge. He was a good sport about being sidelined Week 1 and he used that time well, becoming well-liked by all of them. 'Young Cedric' was an ongoing, evolving skit and his own elaborate life stories usually had them and us in stitches. Between expecting volunteers for the block and painting himself into a no-win corner between his various alliances, his HOH was a disaster. Then he volunteered to be a pawn the following week and learned the meaning of 'pawns go home.' He was funny, genuine, wise and mature beyond his years, and he'll be missed.




Won: Nothing

HOH 0 - Veto 1 - Noms 3/0/0 - HN 0

 

Kenney Kelley - 52
Instagram
Married with kids - fan applicant
Former undercover cop
Boston, MA

3rd evicted - Day 24

He adopted Matt and lost him fast, then he won a veto, and the rest of the time he said he wanted to quit. He rallied a bit at the end when he teamed up with Cedric and Tucker, adding Cam when he walked in on them, but that got blown up immediately. He mostly sat by himself and shouted out his family, or he complained to others about missing them, so they sent him back to them.




Won: Nothing

HOH 0 - Veto 1 - Noms 2/0/0 - HN 1

 

Lisa Weintraub - 33
Twitter - Instagram - Instagram 2
Single - recruit?
Celebrity chef
Los Angeles, CA

2nd evicted - Day 17

She's a legit chef/caterer and ran that into the ground, along with sprinkling edible glitter on everyone's food whether they wanted it or not. Tucker's rants about her were an early highlight, and she crumbled after Angela mocked her walk and called her a twit. Props for winning the first veto (rare for a woman), but she wasn't cut out for this setting. Most of that was simply being a bad roommate: she made (and wasted) food they didn't want, dabbed non-consensual essential oil on her roomies' pillows, propped filthy feet on food surfaces, and she never tired of telling everyone what a special and unique person she was.




Won: Nothing

HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/1 - HN 0

 

Matt Hardeman - 25
Single - recruit?
Twitter - Instagram
Tech sales rep
Roswell, GA (orig Loganvilla, GA)

1st evicted - Day 10

He filled the pretty boy/brojock casting slot perfectly but didn't like Angela pointing that out openly and immediately. He was adamant about not being 'that guy' and to his credit, he did talk a lot against toxic masculinity. He cried after Angela yelled at him, but went out in high spirits with ginormous smiles for Julie.




 

Won: Control of the game

HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 0

Ainsley/AInsley - 24
Surf shop worker
San Diego, CA

She lost two votes to join as #17 so reverted to her robotic persona aka Artificial Intelligence Network Self-Learning Entity, and became a comp host.

GAME TWISTS

-First and second move-in groups of eight voted against letting Ainsley join as 17th player, and each group played comps based on their votes.

-Losers Cedric, Chelsie were Week 1 mascots: couldn't compete for HOH or veto, couldn't vote, could be nominated.

-Makensy won America's Veto: once in first four weeks, she can remove someone from the block and viewers will instant-vote the replacement. She used it Week 3 after she went up as veto renom.

-Quinn won Deep Fake HOH: once in first four weeks, the HOH's AI avatar will announce noms Quinn secretly picked, and he can spread misinfo and rumors via that fake avatar. He used it Week 4 to take over Angela's 2nd HOH (everyone knew about it).

-Weeks 1 thru 5: HOH picked three nominees, and veto renom if applicable. The three competed live in AI Arena before the vote, and the winner came off the block.

-Week 6: Viewer vote to pick someone for AI Instigator, who can spread rumors via others' AI avatars
