Big Brother 12 Spoilers

The wildly popular CBS reality show Big Brother is back for it's 12th season, and spoilers are in the air! The show began with the season premiere on July 8, 2010, and concluded on September 15, 2010, as Hayden Moss was named the Big Brother 12 winner.

Big Brother pits a group of houseguests against one another in a large house where they are filmed 24 hours a day. Contestants participate in a variety of competitions including the head of household, to determine the person who will name two players for eviction, the veto competition, to allow one person to change one of the nominees, and other competitions to determine what food they will be permitted to eat and for luxury items and other prizes. Each week one player is evicted from the Big Brother house with the final group of houseguests going to a secluded jury house. At the conclusion of the season, the jury members select the winner, who receives the $500,000 prize.

Unlike many other reality shows, Big Brother is filmed as the contestants are living in the house with many episodes airing live on CBS. Additionally, three extra hours air each night live on Showtime on Big Brother After Dark. Fans looking to observe the house 24/7 can also purchase an online viewing package allowing them to watch the contestants live at nearly any time of day.

Since fans can watch the house even when the main episodes are not airing on CBS, a multitude of spoilers can be found including the winners of the competitions before they air and all the drama in the house including fights and "showmances."

Each season Big Brother has some kind of twist that affects the contestants and the game. For Big Brother 12, the twist is that there is a saboteur living among the houseguests. The saboteur attempted to spend the Summer trying to sabotage the game and the other houseguests. This person was not playing to win the $500,000 prize. Instead, if they managed to reach the halfway point in the show, they walk out of the Big Brother house with $50,000. However, if they are discovered by the other houseguests or get voted out, they walk away with nothing.

While she was voted out in the first eviction, Annie was the Big Brother saboteur. Few houseguests suspected her, especially after announcing false information to the rest of the house such as one where she claims she "escaped the block." While Annie is gone, she did leave one last trick in the house for after she leaves.

Annie, the saboteur, was also responsible for:

• Locked the storage room while the lights were out the 1st night.
• Put an X over Kathy and Britney's photos.
• Told the houseguests that two of them knew each other prior to Big Brother and are working together.
• Hid a beeping device in the house to annoy the other houseguests and keep them from sleeping.

To keep the saboteur twist alive, fans could vote on another houseguest who would be offered the chance to become a second saboteur. The premise will be the same, however the houseguest selected by fans does have the choice to take the deal or decline. To receive the prize, the second saboteur would need to evade eviction for two weeks after agreeing to the side deal. Ragan was selected by American to become the new saboteur and, to not let the fans down, he accepted the offer. He completed three missions each week that were suggested by people that watch Big Brother and stayed in the house for the two weeks to bank the $20,000 prize.

• HOH part one winner - Hayden

• HOH part two winner - Lane

• HOH part three winner and final Head of Household - Hayden

• Evicted houseguest - Enzo

• Final two - Hayden and Lane

• Big Brother 12 Winner - Hayden

Wednesday, September 15, 2010 - Finale Day!

• As a last-ditch attempt, Enzo tries to convince Lane that he cannot win against Hayden. Enzo hopes that Lane will listen and take him, not Hayden, to the final two.
• Footage of Britney arriving at the jury house is shown, including her telling the rest of the jury about the Brigade.
• The jury members discuss which of the final three they feel played the best game and which deserves the top prize of $500,000.
• The final HOH competition is held with host Julie Chen reading the first part of a statement made by the jurors. Hayden and Lane have to pick A or B to complete the sentence. The game goes to the final tie-breaker question, which is how many times they were slammed against the walls during part one of the final HOH competition. Hayden answered closer and wins the final HOH competition.
• Hayden makes his decision to take Lane to the final two and evict Enzo. In his interview with Julie Chen, Enzo talks about walking away with no money and how he has not made his mind up about which he will vote for.
• The jury enters the studio to ask the final two their questions. They have pre-prepared and agreed-upon questions, including asking Lane if he had the choice of taking a Brigade member or Britney to the final two, who he would select, which he dodges. Many ask Lane what he contributed to the game, the competitions and the Brigade. He says that he looked after them and made them laugh. Hayden sneaks in a point about winning so many competitions. Enzo asks Lane if he would have really picked him to go to the final two. Lane evades the question, noting that he thinks he would not have won in either situation.
• Hayden goes to town on his final speech, proclaiming how he deserves to win as he won so many competitions during the season, including the final three HOH competitions. He adds that he played a good social game as well, treating everyone with respect.
• Lane thanks the jury members for an "amazing summer." He says that he played a good, competitive game, which to him is more than just winning competitions, as he did win two.
• The voting begins!
  • Rachel votes for "the best social player."
  • Kathy calls the decision "very, very hard," adding that they know where her heart lies.
  • Matt admits that evicting him was the best move of the game. He says he is voting for the "person he thinks was most active in stabbing him in the back."
  • Brendon agrees with Rachel, voting for the player with the "best social game."
  • Regan votes for the one he thinks is "here to win the $500,000, not the one that is here to give away a $500,000."
  • Britney tells the final two, "let the best man win."
  • Enzo picks between "the man that needs a haircut and the man that needs a shave."
• Before the winner is announced, Annie, Monet, Andrew and Kristen are back to talk about what they saw by watching the show. Rachel and Monet trade jabs then footage of the Hayden-Kristen showmance is featured. Kristen explains that she would be open to a relationship with Hayden, should he be interested.
• Andrew says he was shocked by Enzo commanding the Brigade in day two and Rachel's hair extensions. Matt's lie about his sick wife was revealed to Hayden and Lane by Andrew, which shocks them. Hayden compliments Matt in the lie but Lane is not as welcoming.
• Rachel talks about moving to Los Angeles to be with Brendon, to which Britney makes a nasty face towards.
• Annie announces that her statement about two houseguests knowing each other was actually a lie.
• The houseguests talk about who they think the second saboteur was, with everyone thinking Matt or Kathy. Everyone is shocked when Regan admits his position. He adds "Ha, suckers, I got $20,000!"
• Jury Votes:
• Brendon - Lane
• Britney - Lane
• Kathy - Hayden
• Matt - Hayden
• Rachel - Lane
• Regan - Hayden
• Enzo - Hayden - Hayden wins!
• Britney is voted as America's favorite, winning the $25,000 prize!

Tuesday, September 14, 2010

• In the last full day in the house, the final three, Lane, Hayden and Enzo, talk about getting very drunk at the wrap party. Lane had a dream that Big Brother told them if all three could stay in the house for three more weeks, they would each win the $500,000 top prize.
• Enzo worries about loved ones back home, including his father and if the car his wife is given to get to the finale will have a car seat for their newborn baby girl.
• The end of the game is starting to sink in for the men with each packing their bags and picking out clothes for the finale. Enzo shares that he has an issue with toe fungus, then attempts to iron a shirt but is confused by the process.
• There is little talk of game at this point, just talk about what happened during the season and how they formed an alliance on day two and reached the end with it. They look forward to getting out of the house so they can have sex, watch football and talk to a shrink.
• After discussions about what they would do with the money, the houseguests attempt to sleep but have trouble as they are all anxious about finale day tomorrow.

Monday, September 13, 2010

• Enzo attempts to talk Hayden into taking him to the finals over Lane. He argues that he would only have two jury votes while Hayden would get more. Enzo continues on about how if he had only won part of the final HOH competition he would guarantee some money. He throws Lane under the bus a bit, saying Lane had a good social game.
• Hayden thinks he will lose regardless of who he picks to go to the final two. Hayden and Enzo talk about life before Big Brother and their hopes to return for an all-stars edition.
• Later on, Enzo confronts Lane to try to get his support, saying neither he or Lane have any chance against Hayden in the finals.
• The houseguests get alcohol and sit around talking about how there is only 48 hours before they get out of the house.

Sunday, September 12, 2010

• It's another lazy day in the house, with most of the time spent with the final three sleeping.
• The houseguests play pool and cards and contemplate their final hours in the house.

Saturday, September 11, 2010

• After sleeping most of the day away, there is a bit of game talk, including Enzo trying to convince Lane that Hayden will easily win if he makes it to the finals. Enzo knows that he has little chance of winning the $500,000 and he cannot really do much about it.
• Once again they spend the evening eating, playing pool, playing cards and talking about football.
• Hayden and Enzo think they both should get their own reality show once Big Brother ends. Emzo's show would be called Meow Meow Down South.

Friday, September 10, 2010

• Little is going on in the Big Brother house, just everyone relaxing in their downtime before the finale. Enzo is talking to his family members (not that they are there). He then heads to bed where he spends most of the day.
• After getting their trophy back from production, the final three play pool, eat, play cards and talk about things they want to do after the show wraps.

Thursday, September 9, 2010

• Production feeds into Enzo's theory that the finale will be held early, possibly tonight, by playing "Goodbye to Hollywood" and "Bye, Bye, Bye" for their wake-up music. Enzo is not feeling well, making soup and wishing for cold medicine.
• Following a short HOH lockdown, the final three remain on an inside lockdown as production builds something in the backyard. Feeds go to the "We'll be right back" screen.
• When the feeds come back we learn that Lane won part two of the HOH competition. From discussions after the competition, it sounds like it was the face-matching competition.
• Feeds go out again as Hayden, Lane and Enzo are treated to a lobster and steak dinner, complete with champagne.
• Besides not feeling well, Enzo is pretty depressed that he is not in the running for the final HOH. He talks about missing his chance at $500,000 and about how he doesn't want his wife to even come to the finale. Enzo fears that Hayden and Lane already made a deal to take each other to the final two.

Wednesday, September 8, 2010 - Live Feeds Blocked

• CBS continues to block the live feeds until after tonight's live show. Despite the block, word has spread that Hayden won part one of the final HOH competition, the endurance competition. The three Brigade members were hanging on ropes in the backyard, slamming into padded walls and traveling under a cold waterfall. Enzo was the first out, lasting only a short time while Lane fell near the three-hour mark to give Hayden the win.
• Enzo convinced that the season will end early, with the live finale tonight or tomorrow. Lane disagrees.

Tuesday, September 7, 2010, Continued - Live Feeds Blocked

• The Brigade reached the final three, with Lane, Hayden and Enzo competing in part one of the final HOH competition. It's an endurance competition with a jungle theme. The men are reportedly clinging to vines which move back and forth across the backyard. In the process, the players bang a wall on one side, travel under a waterfall then bang a second wall and repeat.
• As of 6 p.m. Big Brother time, the live audience on hand for the eviction taping was released and the endurance competition was still going on with all three men still hanging on.

Head of Household - Hayden

Nominees - Lane and Britney

POV Winner - Hayden

Replacement Nominee - POV not used

Evicted Houseguest - Britney (eviction taped Tuesday to air Wednesday evening)

Tuesday, September 7, 2010

• Big Brother live feeds are down. A note states that CBS blocked the feeds until after the Wednesday evening show. Big Brother After Dark on Showtime is also blocked, but is showing extra content like interviews and past episodes. The live feeds also are replaying Big Brother After Dark starting with day one of season 12.
• Despite the lack of feeds, spoilers are still available. Apparently there was a leak to Twitter from either someone in the audience at today's taping or someone within production.
• Hayden did not use the POV, leaving the nominees as Lane and Britney.
• Britney was evicted from the house, becoming the sixth member of the jury.
• Part one of the final HOH competition begins.

Monday, September 6, 2010

• All houseguests are on an indoor lockdown as production builds something in the backyard. Enzo thinks a celebrity is coming to the house so they can all watch a movie or Monday Night Football (not that there is any football this Monday.)
• The houseguests are beginning to realize something is up as usually they are called to the diary room before the POV ceremony, which is generally Monday around 11 a.m. but none have been called and it's after 11.
• Britney attempts to play solitaire on the kitchen table but cannot remember how to play as she usually plays on a computer.
• Afternoon rolls around and still no veto ceremony. Hayden however does the HOH blog and gets the camera for the week, events that generally take place on Tuesday. After picture time, the houseguests are briefly locked down in the HOH room, which they also find very odd.
• Each of the final four are talking game including who each think they could beat in the finals.
• Later in the evening the houseguests play blackjack and talk about other casino games. They have a few drinks and talk about visiting Las Vegas and Atlantic City after the finale. Shortly before bed, Britney dyes Lane's beard.

Sunday, September 5, 2010

• Britney is up early. She makes herself a gigantic pancakes then heads to the backyard to eat and talk to herself. The pity party continues with her talking about coming in fourth, how she hopes her family is not disappointed in her, how she wants to go to the Super Bowl really bad and how the Brigade got her. She continues on to talk about Rachel, Brendon and Kathy in the jury house.
• Lane and Enzo talk about their chances in the final two. They agree that neither of them could beat Hayden in the finals so it sounds like if one of them win the final HOH that they will take the other and evict Hayden.
• Hayden is worried about losing Britney's vote by evicting her. Apparently they made a deal and Hayden broke it by nominating her. He mentions that Britney honestly thought that if Hayden or Lane won the POV both would use it on her, but now that she's going home, she is pretty mad.

Saturday, September 4, 2010

• Britney realizes that she is the odd person out in the group and she will likely go home this week unless she wins the POV. Lane denies that she will be evicted this week, but Britney continues to cry and whine.
• Hayden wins the POV competition. It sounds like it was some sort of stacking competition involving popcorn about evicted players and previous events in the house.
• Lane, Enzo and Hayden contemplate telling Britney about their Brigade alliance, suggesting that Hayden mentions it during the POV ceremony. Fearful that he will lose her jury vote, Hayden decides to tell Britney later that evening. Enzo breaks the news to Britney a bit later while Lane plays dumb about the whole thing. They explain why Matt was kicked out of the alliance as he refused to put Rachel and Brendon on the block.
• Britney realizes that she is for sure going home now, asking Hayden if that's the case. Hayden tells her that he will not use the POV, but wanted to come clean to her about the Brigade. Britney begins to cry.
• Hayden, Lane and Enzo talk in the HOH room about how the Brigade is the best alliance ever and no one will ever come close to what they accomplished. Enzo: "Final three, yo!"
• Lane tells Hayden not to tell Enzo, but if he wins the final HOH that Enzo will be evicted and he'll take Hayden to the final two. The rest of the evening is mainly filled with Britney crying and the men talking about the final week of the game.

Friday, September 3, 2010

• Enzo says over and over "if Britney wins the POV, I'm done." He wonders what the POV will be, bringing up the face-matching game that's been played in prior seasons.
• The houseguests are on an outdoor lockdown. They return to the house to see a smaller final four dining table.
• Feeds cut out for a bit and when they return, the houseguests are running around the kitchen and living room looking for something. It sounds like they are participating in a luxury competition or possibly a Pandora's Box event as Hayden does not seem to be participating. Each houseguest was given 90 seconds alone to hide a coin with their name on it. Once all the coins are hidden, the searching begins with the last person whose coin is found winning $10,000. The houseguests are tearing the house up looking for the hidden coins. Britney finds Enzo's coin first, then Lane's a while later, winning the prize.
• Lane and Britney talk about alliances of the past and Big Brother All Stars including about four-person alliances in previous seasons. Lane adds that this season would be 10-times better if there was a four-person alliance (like the original Brigade.)
• Nominations are held with Hayden picking Lane and Britney to go on the block.
• Enzo again mentions the possibility of Britney winning the POV and him going home.

Thursday, September 2, 2010, Continued

• The HOH competition continues after the live show ends, with Hayden winning. Enzo and Britney were well behind, with Britney having only eight ornaments in the spots when Hayden reached 14.
• After requesting some last-minute items for his HOH room from production, Hayden asks Lane and Enzo about how he should handle nominations. He suggests putting both men up, just to mess with Britney, then back-dooring her. (That could backfire as if she wins the POV, there's no chance she would use it.)
• Hayden reveals his HOH room, in his third HOH of the summer, including a bracelet and letter from his father. Apparently Hayden won third place in a yo-yo competition, which everyone laughs about.
• Enzo and Hayden speak about the Lane-Britney alliance, including how Lane will protect her over them now. They strive to win the POV this week, preventing her from having any power this week and voting her out. Neither think they have a chance at the final two if Lane or Britney win HOH next week.

Week 8 Part Two

Head of Household - Lane

Nominees - Enzo and Regan

POV Winner - Enzo

Replacement Nominee - Hayden

Evicted Houseguest - Regan, with a 2-0 vote

Thursday, September 2, 2010

• Pretty boring day in the Big Brother house as the houseguests spend time sleeping, cleaning and getting ready for the live eviction show.
• During the live show, Lane explains his theory to Julie Chen, including taking Britney to the final two over a Brigade member. Clips from the jury house are shown, including Kathy's entrance, followed by Matt and Brendon from the double eviction last week. At dinner, Matt announces that his wife is not suffering from a rare disease, that was just his story to get sympathy. The rest of the jury members flip out over the news, especially Kathy, a survivor of cancer herself, with them asking Matt to leave the room.
• In his pre-eviction speech, Regan apologizes for being "a pill" during the week, but says that he really enjoyed his time in the house. Britney and Enzo both vote to evict Regan and he becomes the fourth member of the jury. (Regardless, Regan is leaving with the $20,000 from the saboteur gig.)
• The HOH competition begins with each trying to move fragile Christmas tree ornaments up into spots on a tree on the other side of chicken wire. The live show ends with Hayden a bit in the lead, but all contestants have a long way to go.

Wednesday, September 1, 2010

• Regan realizes that he is undoubtably going home this week and begins bashing on Rachel. He holds up a bottle of Rachel's nail polish and proclaims that it has a STD. Britney chimes in about Kathy and Kristen, calling her "useless" in the competitions and saying how Kathy thought her "y'all" would carry her through the game.
• The houseguests get new toys to play with including foam paddles and moon sand.
• Pretty uneventful day in the Big Brother house today. Lane gets the camera to take pictures of the houseguests and the computer to create his HOH blog. He tells the rest of the houseguests that he can't write well so instead he plans to write a rap song for the blog.
• Britney is almost compulsively cleaning the house and doing laundry. The houseguests wonder if she is trying to butter them up in case she loses HOH this week.
• Talk in the backyard turns to video games, with Enzo suggesting that they make a Big Brother game, adding that Evil Dick could be a playable character using pots and pans for his weapons.
• Enzo tells Lane and Hayden that Britney should be the target next week then the final three will be completely Brigade members. (That may happen if Britney does not win HOH, but if she does, her and Lane will likely go to the finals.)
• Regan is drinking wine and getting quite emotional, again. He gets pretty drunk, crying about his father and talking to the live feed viewers.

Tuesday, August 31, 2010

• Lane looks at the contestant photos on the memory wall and describes his feelings towards Rachel. He says that it does not matter if she hates all of them, they don't want to ever see her again. Lane adds that he could be laying bloody in the street and see her come by and wouldn't call out for her.
• After spending time in the hot tub with the others telling stories about being drunk, Lane heads inside and dons a blue do rag. He tries to get Britney to sleep in the HOH bed with him but she declines.
• Regan continues to talk to himself about the game, calling his position "humiliating." He tries to think about what he can say to the houseguests to save himself this week, but realizes that it's a lost cause.
• Approaching Lane with his prepared speech, Regan explains all the possibilities of jury votes based on final-two combinations. He argues that Lane can beat Regan or Britney in the end, but would certainly lose to Enzo or Hayden. Lane agrees that Regan is making some good points, but does not elaborate as to if this changes his strategy.
• Later on, Lane tells Britney of the conversation with Regan. They continue on to plot final-two combinations based on who wins HOH next time. Lane is trying to throw some game at Britney, trying to convince her that her fiance, Nick, is cheating on her while she is here.
• Hayden and Enzo play bocce ball, but quickly become bored and change it up to "hot and cold." Enzo hides one of the balls in the backyard and Hayden's task is to find it. They appear to be having fun, with Lane joining in as well.
• The three remaining Brigade members talk about Regan's last-minute attempt to save himself, saying that it's pointless for Regan at this point, the Brigade remains strong. They all feel that Regan would absolutely win the $500,000 if he stays regardless of the second person in the finals.

Monday, August 30, 2010

• The houseguests are placed on an outdoor lockdown in the morning. The are let back into the house to hold the POV ceremony. Feeds are cut for the ceremony, but Enzo used the POV to save himself, leaving Regan on the block. Lane nominates Hayden as the replacement nominee, which does not seem to both Hayden much as everyone plans to evict Regan this week.
• Lane and Hayden speak about how they've already won the game, planning to get rid of Britney then Enzo and reach the finals together. They are confident that one of them will win the $500,000 and the other the $50,000.
• Despite being safe this week, Britney's pity party continues with her telling Lane how she just wants to go home. She is not interested in attending any of the post-season events with the Big Brother contestants, that she really wants to relax and possibly become a commentator for the National Football League.
• Regan continues to spend time alone, crying and talking to himself about his upcoming "execution."
• Enzo opens up about his wife to the rest of the houseguests, saying she is a CFO at a Fortune 500 company. The other houseguests get the impression that Enzo, or his wife at least, are quite wealthy and really don't need the prize money as much as everyone else.
• According to Hayden, Enzo realizes he is the odd man out in the Brigade, telling Lane that Emzo is prepared to win every competition for the rest of the season to ensure his safety in the house.
• Each of the houseguests talk about what they plan to do with the money should they win the $500,000. Lane says he and Hayden will invest in oil fields, allowing them a great return and the ability to retire at a young age. He also adds that Britney is stupid to want to put all the money in the bank as she may not see any return for 40 years.
• Regan tells Britney that she needs to realize that she will be the next to go as the Brigade will not keep her around over one of their own. Britney says she knows how it is, adding that she was surprised that she was not the replacement nominee. Both talk about Enzo being the first Brigade member to be evicted, providing Lane or Hayden win HOH in two weeks.

Sunday, August 29, 2010

• Big Brother gives the houseguests punishment number two. Each houseguest is given a sock puppet that looks like them. They must use the sock puppet each time they speak or else they will turn into a have not for the week. They are allowed to take the sock puppets off, but cannot speak if they do so.
• Regan is still pretty upset about losing the POV. He talks to and with his sock puppet, saying he does not look forward to people coming up to him after the show and recognizing him from Big Brother.
• Lane tells Britney that she is acting too much like a "little princess" which Enzo translates to her being a bitch. Britney keeps her bad mood, angry that the men woke her up talking about fantasy football.
• Hayden and Enzo confront Lane about backdooring Britney this week. He does not want to hear any of that, confident that Britney will take him to the finals. Enzo and Hayden begin to realize that Lane is likely more aligned to Britney and less with the Brigade.
• Later, Lane asks Hayden if he is cool with being the replacement nominee. Hayden is actually alright with it. Lane heads back upstairs to talk to Britney, talking about putting Hayden up. Britney thinks Hayden should go home this week, not Regan, thinking that neither of them have a chance against Hayden in the finals.

Saturday, August 28, 2010

• Britney is starting to get a bit cocky, telling the houseguests that when she gets out of the house she will refuse to do anything, telling everyone instead that now she is a reality TV star. She continues to wander around the house and accuse all the men of poor toilet aim.
• The POV was held, with Enzo winning. Regan is very upset, crying again, especially as Enzo did something during the competition that was physically aggressive to win. Something else happened during the POV that made Britney ask production if they'd need to do it again.
• Lane talks to Britney, asking if she has a speech prepared. She get offended, realizing that she will likely be the replacement nominee. Lane tries to reassure her that Regan is 100% the target and will be going home, but Britney is far from willing to go up as the replacement.

Friday, August 27, 2010

• Lane is presented with Pandora's Box, during which the feeds were cut. When they come back, Lane states that he opened the box, selecting three envelopes. He says he won only $91.17 and unleashed three punishments on the house. (This was later confirmed during the August 29, 2010, show.)
• The houseguests are placed on an outdoor lockdown. They come back into the kitchen to learn that for their first punishment, production took away all of their drinking cups and utensils for the week.
• Talk begins to circulate about nominations, with Regan being Lane's top choice and a guaranteed nominee. Hayden volunteers to go up as a pawn, but Lane really wants Enzo up instead.
• Lane asks Britney if she'd use the POV on Regan. She says NO! but then gets upset when she realizes that Lane would nominate her over Hayden.
• Later, at the nomination ceremony, Lane picks Enzo and Regan to go up on the block, giving Britney the first key. Enzo does not take the news well, even knowing he is a pawn. Britney does not understand why Enzo is mad, but laughs that she's glad it's not her. Enzo is afraid that Lane will not put Britney up as a replacement nominee as he has a big crush on her.

Thursday, August 26, 2010, Continued

• A second HOH is held, using the competition that the houseguests were allowed to practice on during the week. Lane easily won, defeating Regan in the final round.
• After the competition, the houseguests reflect on the game thus far, talking about Kathy being the "cougar" and how dirty they thought Rachel was. They toast to the final five left in the game.

Week 8 Part One

Head of Household - Hayden

Nominees - Brendon and Regan

POV Winner - Regan

Replacement Nominee - Britney

Evicted Houseguest - Brendon with a 3-0 vote

Thursday, August 26, 2010, Continued

• After Matt's eviction, the next HOH competition is immediately held, with houseguests searching for names to the question of "Which houseguest has held the title of HOH twice?" from a vat is packing peanuts. Hayden got the two names, Matt and Rachel, first and was named HOH.
• Hayden nominates Brendon and Regan for eviction, citing his friendship with Enzo and previous promise to Britney.
• The veto is a before and after competition with housguests deciding if one event occurred before of after the other. Regan won the POV. After the competition, Britney can be seen talking to Enzo about what's about to happen, saying when he goes up as the replacement nominee, she will vote to keep him.
• Brendon gives a bizarre POV speech about tying his shoes and then realizing he was not wearing shoes. Regan uses the POV on himself. Hayden nominates Britney in Regan's place.
• Brendon is evicted with a three-zero vote. He hugs goodbye and wishes them good luck.

Head of Household - Britney

Nominees - Brendon and Enzo

POV Players - Britney, Brendon, Enzo, Matt, Lane and Hayden

POV Winner - Brendon

Replacement Nominee - Matt

Evicted Houseguest - Matt with a 4-0 vote

Thursday, August 26, 2010

• Britney complains about Matt to Lane and Enzo, specifically that Matt turned on Regan so fast to try to save himself. She tells them that they were right about Matt, that he cannot be trusted, and is glad he is going home this week. They see Matt practicing the competition set up outside and wonder why he is wasting his time as he's going home this week. They think that Matt feels he has the votes to stay, citing Regan and Brendon as voting to keep him. Lane wonders if this is the case and if he will be evicted over Matt. Enzo and Britney reassure him that he will be safe and Matt will go instead. Should there be a tie, Britney will cast the deciding vote and certainly vote for Matt to leave.
• Hayden and Brendon talk privately in one of the bedrooms about not allowing Regan to win HOH next. Hayden mentions that Britney needs to be evicted soon too, especially to prevent her from winning HOH again.
• Enzo and Lane agree that Britney needs to be evicted soon, as does Brendon. They do not expect Regan to win HOH as he's done very poorly in previous competitions. Enzo contemplates keeping Britney safe next week to gain her trust, then turning on her later.
• Regan continues to practice on the set up competition outside, but easily becomes discouraged after he cannot get the hang of it.
• Britney tries the practice competition set up, but thinks she is too short to properly work the mechanism that flips the ball. She stresses that Brendon could very well win the competition as he's taller.
• The houseguests again contemplate the chances of a double elimination this week, knowing it's about that time in the game where a double elimination occurs. They however shoot down the theory as there has been no lockdown to set up competitions and there is not enough time left to set up three separate competitions between now and then.
• During the live show, Julie Chen tells the houseguests about the double eviction tonight. They immediately vote, 4-0 to evict Matt.

Wednesday, August 25, 2010

• Matt comes up with a master plan to throw Regan under the bus to save himself this week. He presents the plan to Regan, who does not approve. Matt promises not to attempt the plan, but does it anyways, trashing Regan to the rest of the houseguests.
• The houseguests begin to suspect that something is fishy (double eviction this week) as they have not been placed on lockdown to allow production to set up this week's HOH competition. While they do not think there will be a double eviction this week, they know something is up.
• Britney complains that Brendon approached her with a plan for an alliance with Regan. She tells Lane about the proposition, laughing and adding that Brendon is a "dummy." Lane agrees. They talk about what will happen when it comes double-elimination time, hoping to evict Brendon first and Regan second.
• Enzo, Hayden and Brendon contemplate telling Matt (again) that he will be evicted this week. They suspect Matt already knows as he offered a pleasant goodbye to Brendon earlier.
• The houseguests find a competition set up in the backyard that features a large wooden box with several sections. It appears the houseguests must stand on a raised podium and attempt to flip a ball into one of the sections. They suspect the competition is for the next HOH, still unaware that a double eviction is coming Thursday.

Tuesday, August 24, 2010

• Brendon proclaims that he intends to win HOH this week. (Doesn't each player try to win HOH every week?) As soon as he leaves the backyard, Hayden, Enzo and Lane agree the Brendon has to be the next to go. Lane is pretty sure he will win HOH this week and he will absolutely put Brendon on the block. They talk about different scenarios about what will happen should each player win HOH, all pretty confident that they will win both the HOH and the POV.
• Matt continues to campaign to the Brigade members, bringing up that the next competitions will be mental, which he is good at, and that his (not really) sick wife needs $60,000 for a surgery.
• Teasing of a big secret, Matt tells Regan that he was supposed to be on Big Brother 11 but he missed the cut and Casey was cast instead. Regan tells him that it's likely a lost cause, but Matt needs a huge game-changing move to keep himself around this week. Matt jokes that it would really suck if this week is a double elimination (which it is) as he'd be stuck in the jury house with Brendon, Rachel and Kathy.
• It sounds like Britney and Regan have formed an alliance, but are going to try to distance themselves from one another to keep it secret. They laugh about Brendon talking about marrying Rachel.
• Hayden breaks a pool stick and a vase, which earns him a trip to the diary room and a probation.

Monday, August 23, 2010

• Matt attempts to speak to Britney before the POV ceremony in an attempt to save himself from becoming the replacement nominee. His strategy, which is to throw his good buddy Regan under the bus, is later revealed to Regan, which does not go over well. Regan cries again, but stops Britney from discussing the details of the incident as he states he'd rather not know.
• Despite his attempts to remain safe, Matt is named the replacement nominee after Brendon takes himself off the block with the POV. After the ceremony, Britney states that she feels bad about Enzo being on the block as he has a new baby at home, but she had few other options.
• Regan finally confronts Matt about the back-stabbing, asking him what he told Britney. Matt claims he tried to take the heat off himself and Regan, but it didn't work out. Regan (and pretty much anyone watching the feeds) can easily tell that Matt is lying.
• Matt begins to campaign around the house, especially with Brigade members Lane and Hayden. Neither seem to be too interested in hearing what Matt has to say or any deals he is pushing, pretty much telling Matt that they don't trust him near as much as they do Enzo.
• It sounds like Lane got a phone call from his mother, perhaps as a prize from the POV competition.
• Regan talks to himself in the cabana room, contemplating which alliance he thinks he could join as the third member. He decides its best to bust up both pairs, Enzo and Hayden in one alliance and Britney and Lane in the other, by winning HOH this week.
• Britney attempts to explain the concept of measuring spoons to Enzo however that goes right over his head. He wonders how things can bake properly if everyone has different-sized teaspoons.
• Lane and Hayden talk about how they think they've already won the game. They feel that even if they don't win the HOH next time they will remain safe, with each having enough alliances to remain in the house to the end.
• After a long session in the diary room, Regan talks to Matt again about how Regan campaigned his butt off last week for Matt and Matt turned around and threw him under the bus. Matt attempts to apologize, but Regan is not buying it, telling Matt straight up that he is going home this week and there is really nothing he can do to stop it.

Sunday, August 22, 2010

• Matt begins to realize that he will be the replacement nominee, telling Regan he is tired of constantly being up on the block as the replacement. He also notes that Britney is completely clueless, acting as if she is a brainwashed puppet being controlled by the other houseguests. He continues on to mention conspiracy theories that production is trying to adapt the game to suit their interests.
• Everyone is trying to talk to Brendon before he is handcuffed to Britney, trying to get him alone for game talk.
• Britney and Brendon are handcuffed and not too happy about it. She is especially upset as she has to get up each hour so Brendon can go outside and get a chum bath.
• Hayden tells Enzo he is worried that because he won prizes in the POV that he will be a target. Enzo reassures him that Matt will be going up as the replacement nominee and that Britney is an idiot who they can use to their advantage now, then vote out later.

Saturday, August 21, 2010

• Everyone is talking about how they need to win the veto in order to keep Brendon from saving himself.
• The POV competition was a "what would you do" competition where Brendon agreed that he would shave his head. Enzo is wearing a penguin suit and Brendon and Britney will be handcuffed together for 24 hours. It sounds like Matt, believing he was 100% safe this week, opted to take a bunch of prizes rather than compete for the POV. The rest of the houseguests took note of that and it increased their desire to get him out of the house.
• Some houseguests will have to take chum baths in the backyard and the house will have to endure being woken up by bells each hour to signify when a chum bath is needed.
• Brendon won the POV and Britney is not happy. She is worried that this week will put a bigger target on her back because now she has to choose a replacement nominee. Everyone is pushing her to choose Matt as the renom, but she knows that this will cause tension with her and Ragan.
• What Britney doesn't realize is that everyone is already talking about getting her out and that hasn't changed with her choices during her HOH reign.
• Britney opened Pandora's Box, locking her in the HOH room with Jesse from Big Brother 10 and 11. She was forced to work out with Jesse, while he picked on her, and the rest of the houseguests got to enjoy a backyard BBQ.

Friday, August 20, 2010

• Britney tells Lane that she hopes he does not get upset, but he is going on the block against Brendon (despite making a deal with Brendon last week.) Lane does not take the news well, stating that if he has to "clone a f***ing dog" he'll do it to win the POV.
• Enzo thinks he will be on the block with Brendon, contemplating what will happen if Brendon, or dodo as he calls him, wins the POV.
• They have the Have Not compeition and Hayden, Enzo and Brendon end up as the Have Nots for the week. America voted for them to have broccoli and bean dip.
• At the nomination ceremony, Britney nominated Enzo and Brendon. She assured Enzo that he is a pawn and she wants to get rid of Brendon this week.

Thursday, August 19, 2010, Continued

• The house is still reeling in the events of the day, especially the major move Matt made by using the diamond veto. Brendon is especially upset, calling Matt a number of colorful names.
• Production tells the cast that have-nots ends at 9:00 p.m. Britney requests last-minute items for her HOH room.
• Everyone goes up to see Britney's HOH room, including pictures of her boyfriend Nick.

Head of Household- Brendon

Nominees- Lane and Ragan

POV Players- Enzo, Brendon, Hayden, Lane, Kathy and Ragan

POV Winner- Ragan

Replacement Nominee-Matt

Evicted Houseguest- Kathy with a 5-0 vote

Thursday, August 19, 2010

• During the live eviction show, Matt was given the chance to plead to stay in the house first. In his speech, he told Brendon that he knew that he was doing what Rachel wanted, even though she was not in the house anymore and then basically said too bad that your plan didn't work. Matt pulled out the Diamond POV and Julie confirmed that he received it in Pandora's box.
• The rest of the house was in shock, and Ragan was grinning from ear to ear because his best friend in the house would be staying.
• Matt had to name a replacement nominee and said the one person he wanted to put up was Brendon, but he couldn't because Brendon was the current HOH. So he named Kathy as the replacement nominee.

• Kathy and Lane gave their speech and the voting began. Everyone was still in shock, but they all agreed on who needed to go home this week.
• By a vote of 5-0 Kathy was evicted from the BB house.
• The HOH competition was true/false quiz based on a game of "Big Brother Says" played in the house during the week. It came down to Britney and Enzo with Britney winning in the end. (Letting Britney win was partly planned by the guys, letting her do the dirty work and keeping the target off their backs.)
• Host, Julie Chen announced to the viewers that next Thursday will be a double eviction. A week of BB will be played out in one hour and two houseguests will go home.

Wednesday, August 18, 2010

• Matt and Regan talk about how they think the rest of the houseguests will vote this week, thinking that Kathy may be the swing vote. Regan talks as if Matt is leaving, contemplating his potential alliances once Matt is gone. Matt notes that if he is evicted and Brendon reaches the final two, he will vote for Brendon to win it all.
• Britney plots to leave Brendon a note in the HOH room using pretzels. When Rachel was in the house, she left a note saying "I [heart] U Matt" apparently to suggest that Brendon try to get rid of Matt this week. Britney's note says "I [heart] U Brendon" just to mess with him.
• Matt and Enzo now talking about future plans, with Matt suggesting they throw the next HOH competition, allowing Britney to win as she will surely target Brendon.
• Lane thinks Kathy is the new saboteur and Rachel was formerly the saboteur, noting that Kathy does a lot of odd things in the house like washing dishes twice, folding towels weird and giving him good night kisses every day.

Tuesday, August 17, 2010

• Ragan is trying to figure out a way to save Matt from being evicted this week. He has no idea that Matt has the Diamond Power of Veto and can save himself.
• Matt is playing it cool and has not really begun to campaign for votes yet. He is the only one that knows he doesn't have to at this point.
• Hayden is speculating that Ragan may be the Saboteur and he also thinks that Matt may have received a power when he opened Pandora's Box. Matt has been too calm about being on th block and that started the wheels to turning for Hayden's thoughts.
• Many of the houseguests think that they may have a double eviction this week. So they are strategically planning just in case.
• Enzo and Hayden talk about how they will need to tell Matt on Thursday the plan to vote him out this week. While they suspect he has a special power, they have no idea that it will keep him in the house, ruining their plans.

Monday, August 16, 2010

• Regan and Matt talk in the hammock, with Regan stating that he thinks Brendon will put him up as the replacement nominee. They both suspect (well Regan says he suspects) that there may be a surprise eviction today and possibly a double eviction this week. Regan is upset with the fact that Matt may be evicted before Brendon.
• Hayden and Britney are still talking about Rachel coming back into the house, saying they think she is the saboteur. They add that the saboteur messages are likely going to be the topic of an upcoming quiz competition.

Sunday, August 15, 2010

• In the early morning on Sunday, Enzo, Hayden and Lane are discussing Matt and what they consider shady behavior by him. They think he is in a side alliance with Ragan and may choose him over the Brigade. They think he might go up as the replacement nominee against Lane. If that happens, they plan to vote him out. What they don't know is that Matt has the DPOV and can save himself.
• Paranoia is spreading through the house with Rachel's return. Some think she is the saboteur, but others seem like they are buying into some of the things that she has said.
• Later in the evening, the saboteur comes on and suggests that the houseguests will be participating in a competition that "will change the game." Many of the houseguests go to bed early, expecting the competition early Monday morning.
• Brendon tells Kathy that he really hopes he does not lose his nominations from some special power someone else may use this week. It really sounds like Brendon may blow a gasket come POV ceremony time if/when Matt uses the diamond power of veto.
• The saboteur keeps the houseguests up most of the night with different short messages. He (Regan) suggests that Monday will feature an eviction and competition, saying that the houseguests should pack their bags and say their goodbyes tonight.

Saturday, August 14, 2010

• Enzo and Hayden talk about keeping Brendon safe for a while as they have a side alliance with him. They call him their "toy soldier," adding that he's a "one-week wonder" winning HOH this week.
• Just prior to the POV competition, Brendon and Britney talk again, each agreeing to keep each other safe this week and next. They talk about who they think is the saboteur, with Britney saying she thought it was Rachel.
• Regan wins the POV! It sounds like the competition was some sort of spinning thing like a merry go round where competitors had to grab puzzle pieces, putting them together to spell the word "veto."
• After the veto competition, Brendon can not get into his HOH room because the door is locked. So he goes to the DR to find out what is going on.
• Right before 3:00 BB time, the doorbell rings and Rachel comes back saying "I'm Back B*tches." Immediately, her and Ragan get into an argument in the kitchen.

</img>

• They all go up to the HOH room because they think that maybe Brendon opened Pandora's Box and that is why Rachel is back. The door is unlocked and the the question mark symbolizing Pandora's Box is on the door inside the HOH room.
• Rachel is back for 24 hours, and they believe that Brendon will be locked out for the 24 hours that she is there. They aren't sure.
• Rachel and Ragan get into another argument in the backyard and Ragan unloads on her leaving her speechless for a few minutes. She later apologizes to Ragan and they have a long talk and hug it out.
• Later Rachel and Britney get into an argument and the other houseguests start to think that she is only back to cause trouble. They even speculate that she might be the new saboteur.

Friday, August 13, 2010

• Regan heads up to the HOH room to try to talk to Brendon before the nomination ceremony. He states that he's saved Brendon and Rachel in the past and really has no problem with Brendon, all in an attempt to cover his own butt and stay off the block this week. Regan offers to make a deal with Brendon, stating that they are both nearly alone in the house, having few allies left. They hug but make no official alliances.
• Following an outdoor lockdown, the houseguests go back inside to see a small table has replaced their large dining table.
• Britney talks to Brendon, apologizing for previous antics and trying to save herself from nomination. She explains that the house was scared of Rachel winning so many competitions, which led to her eviction.
• Brendon tells Hayden that he wants Lane and Britney on the block this week, noting that both are floating through the game and will reach the final three.
• Talking to Enzo, Brendon mentions that he does not respect Regan and he's not been giving it his all in the competitions. Enzo urges Brendon to keep Lane safe.
• Matt and Brendon make a deal to keep each other safe this week. Brendon says he does not want to backdoor anyone. (Matt can make all the deals he wants, he has the diamond power of veto and is guaranteed safe this week.)
• Brendon tells Britney that she will be on the block immediately before the nominations ceremony. However, it appears something changed in that short amount of time as Brendon actually named Lane and Regan as this week's nominees.

Thursday, August 12, 2010, Continued

• The HOH competition was held with each player attached to a rope in a wooden grid. The rope was tangled around the grid, with each player needing to untangle their rope to reach the end. Brendon won the competition easily, with Lane coming in second. Regan, Britney and Kathy barely made it halfway through the course.
• As a perk of winning HOH, Brendon got to choose three people to be the Have Nots for this week. No one is surprised when he chose Matt, Ragan and Britney to be the Have Nots after their altercations during last week.
• After the competition, Britney, Matt and Regan expected that two of them three would be nominated for eviction. The "Brigade" talked of strongly pushing for Regan and Britney to go up, leaving Matt safe. (Matt is pretty much immune to eviction this week anyways as he has the diamond power of veto.) Enzo and Hayden feel confident of their place in the game, thinking they have Brendon wrapped around their fingers.
• Brendon goes off on the houseguests, who have gathered in the have-nots room. He tells them that he warned what would happen if they messed with him and Rachel, threatening to "unleash a f***ing monster" in the house.
• Brendon gets his HOH room, including a letter from his sister, a picture of Rachel and new flip-flops. He also receives ice cream, snacks and what appears to be a pink stuffed elephant with sunglasses. The letter from his sister was a relief for the "Brigade" who expected a letter from Rachel exposing their alliance.

Head of Household- Matt

Nominees- Brendon and Rachel

POV Players- Matt, Brendon, Rachel, Ragan, Enzo, Kathy and Britney

POV Winner- Britney

Replacement Nominee- POV not used

Evicted Houseguest- Rachel with a 6-0 vote

Thursday, August 12, 2010

• Rachel is crying (imagine that) as she knows she and Brendon have just a few hours left together in the house. They really think that she will stay this week and Brendon will head to the jury house, but it may only be wishful thinking as it sounds like the votes will be to keep Brendon.
• Lane tells Enzo that he is not cool with Enzo getting so close to Brendon. They wonder what will happen if Rachel has some secret power, but keep up the plan to get rid of her this week, while telling Brendon and Rachel that the house wants Rachel to stay. Enzo adds that he will circumcise himself should Kathy win HOH this week.
• All of the houseguests are locked down in the HOH room. Brendon reluctantly allows Rachel to give him a haircut. They talk about when they will get married, deciding on a year or so, after Brendon can ask permission from her father. The rest of the houseguests study for the HOH competition tonight, expecting some type of quiz.
• The lockdown ends and Brendon and Rachel begin to pack their belongings. Brendon complains that his things have magically multiplied since he's been in the house. Rachel cries some more.
• Much to the surprise of Brendon and Rachel, but no one else, Rachel was evicted with a unanimous vote. She said her goodbyes to Brendon only and left the house. Julie Chen mentioned that it may not be the last time Rachel saw the BB house, but did not elaborate. In her eviction interview, Rachel mentioned plans to move to Los Angeles to be with Brendon after the show ends.

Wednesday, August 11, 2010

• Big Brother gave the houseguests a party for making to the half way point in the game. They had pizza, pasta and a cake.
• Kathy got to eat during the party, even though she is the only Have Not this week.
• Matt and Hayden spent time playing out different scenarios for next week using the rubber duckies that Matt has received for winning HOH. They are trying to make sure that the Brigade is covered no matter who wins HOH.
• Ragan has been avoiding contact with Rachel and Brendon whenever possible since the blow up last night. Although, he never misses a chance to bash them with the others when they are not around.
• Matt has kind of volunteered himself to go up if he needs to next week. The Brigade thinks he is doing this because he knows that he will have their votes. But we all know that even without their votes he has the Diamond POV and can save himself.

Tuesday, August 10, 2010

• Kathy worries about being the next target once Brendon and Rachel are out of the house. Hayden tells her that Rachel is going this week and even if Brendon wins HOH next week, Kathy is safe for a couple weeks.
• Brendon continues to stir the pot in the hopes that he will be evicted and Rachel will stay. He proclaims that Lane cannot be trusted as he's working with Britney and the same thing goes for Matt and Regan.
• Rachel tells Hayden that she knows she is safe this week (not true as of right now) and that she knows her and Brendon will not make it to the final two. (Great observation as they are both on the block this week.) She continues to talk smack about Matt, confident that he won well more than a dollar by opening Pandora's Box. She explains that she hopes to expose his lie before she is evicted. Rachel heads to the diary room to ask production questions about Pandora's Box.
• Brendon, Enzo and Hayden talk about the new saboteur, thinking it's someone who has flown under the radar thus far. Enzo suggests that it's Kathy, as she's been acting differently lately while Brendon is convinced that it's Lane.
• Rachel tells the houseguests that production told her some juicy info in the diary room, but she won't tell anyone about it, including Brendon. She and Brendon search the Big Brother manual to find out if production can go through their belongings, but give up looking. Rachel is hoping to catch Matt in a lie claiming that he pulled the dollar prize card out of his bag rather than receiving it in Pandora's Box (which is the truth).

Monday, August 9, 2010

• Brendon professes his love for Rachel once again, telling her that he will make it so he gets evicted this week so she can stay. (Bad move really as she will be much more likely to be evicted next over Brendon.)
• The POV ceremony is held and Britney does not use the POV on either Brendon or Rachel. This upsets Brendon, calling her a "spoiled little brat" and running his mouth about other houseguests including Britney's BFF Lane.
• Rachel and Britney talk later with Rachel saying that she doesn't know why Brendon blew up, apologizing for her boyfriend. The rest of the houseguests don't buy Brendon's behavior, thinking it was planned by Rachel like most of the other drama in the house. They understand that Brendon was trying to turn the house against him to keep Rachel, but Matt and Regan suggest that Rachel will be evicted this week regardless. Brendon and Rachel think the plan worked and they've guaranteed that Rachel will stay over Brendon.
• Lane, Enzo and Hayden have a mini "Brigade" meeting, minus Matt. They toss around the choices of evicting Brendon or Rachel, with Hayden and Lane wanting to get rid of Rachel and Enzo suggesting they keep her as she will break without Brendon and can be easy to manipulate. They look ahead to next week, wondering how things will play out depending on who wins the HOH. They settle, for now, on evicting Rachel this week and keeping Brendon, but back-dooring him next week.

Sunday, August 8, 2010

• Britney seems to be at major odds with Brendon and Rachel, running her mouth about the couple constantly. She also apparently told Rachel that she would not use the POV, keeping both Brendon and Rachel on the block. Rachel was not happy about it, offering Britney an alliance and her $5,000 prize, but Britney declines, stating that it would place a target on her back going forward. Britney adds that regardless of if the POV is used or not, either Brendon or Rachel are going home this week.
• Enzo predicts that Rachel will get drunk tonight and cause a stir. (Sounds like every other night in the BB house.)
• Rachel is trying to get sympathy from the other houseguests, repeating over and over that it's not fair that everyone is coming after her. She talks about how she can't wait until they visit Las Vegas and she can show them "how personal it will get."
• So far no real talk of which will be evicted between Brendon and Rachel between the other members of the house. By the way Rachel has been treating everyone in the house, it very well could be her this week.
• During the episode that aired Sunday night, it was revealed that by opening Pandora's box, Matt actually received the diamond power of veto, which is good for the next two evictions only and allows Matt to not only take himself or one person off the block, but also name the replacement nominee. Matt however must keep the power a secret or he could lose it. Also, by opening Pandora's Box, the offer was given to Regan to become the new saboteur, which he accepted. It also showed that few of the houseguests believed Matt when he said he received a dollar, sensing that he actually received something more but is trying to hide it.

Saturday, August 7, 2010

• The backyard was opened at around midnight on Saturday and there was a bowling lane set up. Everyone began practicing for the POV. Rachel was not happy because she wasn't very good and kept breaking down and crying.
• The POV competition was held and Jeff and Jordan from season 11 were the hosts.
• Kathy beat Rachel in the competition and celebrated because she has never won anything. Rachel was offended and told Kathy later that she should apologize. Kathy would not and Rachel followed her around trying to cause more drama for a while, but Kathy did good at not letting herself get dragged into it.

Friday, August 6, 2010

• Brendon tells Rachel that he is worried about what will happen once they are separated. He's tired of hearing about her parting days in Las Vegas and making out with celebrities, hinting that once they are apart, he thinks she will cheat on him.
• Enzo, Lane, Kathy and Regan hope for a double elimination this week to get rid of both Rachel and Brendon. They note that evicting Brendon would do the job as well as Rachel will likely crack without Brendon.
• Matt opened Pandora's Box and unknowingly released a new saboteur into the house. He told the houseguests that he received a dollar for his troubles, claiming there was a card suggesting he'd receive great wealth, however that was a complete lie.
• Nominations took place and Matt put Brendon and Rachel up.
• Rachel and Ragan got into a small argument that Brendon interjected himself into causing some stress around the house.
• The houseguests received a message from the saboteur saying, "Hello houseguests guess who is back. Annie may be long gone but my reign of terror is about to begin. I want to thank Matt for opening Pandora's Box and unleashing a new saboteur into the house. My mission is to destroy all of you and cruise to the half million dollars. Watch your back, before I stab you in it."
• Speculation on what this means and paranoia have all begin.

Thursday, August 5, 2010, Continued

• Lasting less than three hours, Matt wins his second HOH competition of the season. Houseguests were placed on a round, revolving drum in the center of the backyard in an attempt to hang on the longest while being sprayed with paint and hit with a large paint brush. As Kathy was the first down, she becomes the only have-not for the week. Once again, Matt and Regan were the last two standing, with Regan opting to drop so he would be eligible to play for HOH next week.
• Immediately after the competition ends, Rachel and Brendon begin to worry about their safety. It sounds like the worry is accurate as the "Brigade" soon reaffirms with Matt that Brendon and Rachel will indeed be the target this week.
• Later on, Matt changes his tone, telling the Brigade that he may only put one of the two on the block in a back-door attempt. He also mentions that Brendon or Rachel could win HOH next week and in case that happens, the Brigade needs to be on good terms with the couple to stay safe.
• Rachel is campaigning already! Talking to Regan in the have-nots room, she begins to cry and tells him that she's scared. Regan immediately tells Matt of the conversation, mentioning Rachel's crocodile tears.

Head of Household- Rachel

Nominees- Kristen and Hayden

POV Players- Enzo, Kristen, Hayden, Britney, Rachel and Ragan; Brendon is the host

POV Winner- Britney

Replacement Nominee- POV was not used

Evicted Houseguest- Kristen by a vote of 6-1

Thursday, August 5, 2010

• The houseguests voted to evict Kristen by a vote of 6-1. Not surprisingly, Kathy was the only vote to keep Kristen.
• Ragan was the top vote getter in America's vote for who they wanted to be offered the chance to become the new saboteur. Enzo came in second place and will be asked if Ragan wins HOH.
• The HOH competition is endurance and the first houseguest to fall will be the only Have Not for the next week.

Wednesday, August 4, 2010

• According to Kristen, signs point toward the brigade alliance (Lane, Enzo, Matt and Hayden) having a bit of internal disagreement as Kristen claims Lane stated he would vote to keep Kristen over Hayden. Enzo questions this to Kristen, who seems to know about the brigade and tells him that everyone should vote for what's best for them, not with their alliance. Kristen asks Enzo to campaign for her, but Enzo is not interested one bit.
• The houseguests are getting pretty tired of Kristen campaigning to save herself non-stop in the house. They are equally amused that Kristen thinks she has way more votes to keep her than she actually does.
• Production allowed the houseguests to sleep in, which was enjoyed by Kristen and Hayden who were up until about 5 a.m. talking. It sounds like they will be on lockdown most of the day as production sets up the next HOH competition. (Generally when the set up for a competition takes a long time, it suggests it may be an endurance competition.)

Tuesday, August 3, 2010

• Kristen has been making the rounds pushing the reasons that she should stay. She doesn't want to talk bad about Hayden, so she is using the point that he is a big competitor and has Lane and Enzo on his side and she has no one but Kathy.
• Ragan and Kristen talk to Rachel about the numbers. They believe if Hayden stays he will pair up with Lane and Enzo. Ragan is helping Kristen because he believes her staying will benefit him in the game.
• The Brigade still plans to vote for Kristen to be evicted. They want her gone so that Hayden gets his head back in the game.

Monday, August 2, 2010

• Hayden and Kristen continue to try to find a way to stay in the house this week as Britney doesn't appear to be using the POV. They suggest making a deal with Rachel to have Britney use the POV, put Kathy up and evict Kathy this week in exchange for protection for Rachel for two weeks.
• While Britney, with help from Lane, is learning that Matt is playing a sneaky game, it does not appear that she will pass up the opportunity to break up the Hayden-Kristen alliance this week. She notes that Kristen could possibly win a competition while Kathy is much less likely, does chores around the house and would be easier to evict down the road.
• Rachel hears of a possibility that Britney will use the POV and tells Brendon that she absolutely wants Kristen or Hayden out this week, so the replacement nominee would be a close friend of Britney's to ensure the replacement stays.
• Rachel, Brendon, Hayden and Kristen speak in the HOH room about the possibility of forming a five-person alliance along with Britney. Rachel is not buying it, saying Kristen already stabbed her in the back. Kristen denies any wrongdoing, blaming Andrew's speech for the tension between them. Rachel and Brendon seem to agree to the deal, which involves putting Kathy up as the replacement nominee if they can convince Britney to use the POV, however it does not appear either couple plans to stick to the deal, with Hayden minutes later telling Britney that he will absolutely target Brendon and Rachel as soon as he can.
• Brendon and Rachel talk about the scheming that happened during the day, not really sure who to trust, but it sounds like they still don't trust Hayden or Kristen despite making (possibly fake) alliances with both.
• Despite hours of game talk between Britney, Hayden, Kristen, Brendon and Rachel, Britney and Rachel finally agree that using the POV this week is just too much of a risk. Britney heads to tell Hayden of the plan and is called to the diary room.
• Later that evening, Rachel has a bit too much wine and wanders around the house shouting about Las Vegas and taking her top off.

Sunday, August 1, 2010

• The brigade plans to vote Kristen out at this point and it would be surprising if this changed. But this is BB and things can change quickly.
• Kristen had a long talk with Britney where she tried to get Britney to use the POV. She promised her the moon and stars if she saved her or Hayden. Britney listened, but it is doubtful that she would use it at this point.
• During the POV competition Hayden and Kristen ended up with prizes that are not so great. Hayden has to stay in solitary confinement for 24 hours. He has loaves of French bread to eat and a jug of water to drink. They even put a portable potty in the room so that he has no reason to come out.
• Kristen got the dreaded unitard prize. Big brother added a twist to it this year and Kristen has a tie-dyed unitard and a wig that she has to wear.

Saturday, July 31, 2010

• Matt, Regan and Britney are talking about another twist coming in the game, wondering if it will be America's player, America's saboteur, or the coup d’etat. Matt knows that the viewers vote for something each week and because there are no have nots, American has to vote on something.
• Rachel joins Matt and Britney in the HOH room as Matt and Britney joke around wearing Rachel's red hair extensions.
• Kathy and Rachel speak in the storage room, with Rachel threatening Kathy if she wins and uses the POV. Rachel tries to say that she didn't put Kathy on the block when given the opportunity twice, but opted to save her instead. Rachel adds that she is not threatening her, "just letting her know."
• Kathy immediately heads over to Kristen to tell her about the conversation with Rachel, laughing that she agreed not to use the POV, but if she wins it, she will use it anyways. Kathy does not want Rachel to know she will use the POV as she wants the viewers to see Rachel's genuine reaction. (As the POV players were later selected and Kathy wasn't picked, that plan is officially off.)

Friday, July 30, 2010

• Rachel took the time to talk to the houseguests before nominations. She and Kristen spent about two hours talking about their argument yesterday. Rachel and Brendon did not get time to talk before nominations and Brendon is not happy with what she said during the nomination ceremony, saying that Rachel pretty much told the rest of the house to "f*** off." Brendon urged Rachel to apologize and try to fix the situation or else one of them certainly will be gone next week. Brendon proceeds to wander around the house trying to fix what Rachel did.
• The houseguests had a luxury competition and Rachel, Brendon, Enzo won a movie.
• The POV competition is set up in the backyard and the houseguests are allowed to practice for the event for a limited time. It looks like a giant pinball machine, with a plunger at the bottom which is used to shoot a ball around a series of obstacles.
• Rachel and Brendon make good use of the privacy of the HOH room once again with oral "relations" under the covers late at night.

Thursday, July 29, 2010, Continued

• Big fireworks during the live eviction ceremony! Andrew called everyone out in his pre-eviction speech, specifically targeting Hayden and Kristen for their secret showmance. Andrew noted that Kristen and Hayden talk about the other houseguests behind their backs.

• Andrew was evicted by a unanimous vote, keeping Kathy in the house another week. Julie Chen also announced that there would be no have or have-nots this week. She also announced that "Pandora's Box" would be back next week, featuring a twist on the game and a possible visitor to the house. Jeff Schroeder from Big Brother 11 is rumored to be the special guest who will spend the night in the BB house.
• The HOH competition followed the eviction, with a head-to-head battle between the houseguests to select which type of competition, HOH, POV or have-have-not, was held based on the description. After Rachel won the HOH, she and Kristen could be heard shouting at one another.

Head of Household-Matt

Nominees-Kathy and Andrew

POV Players-Matt, Kathy, Andrew, Brendon, Rachel and Lane

POV Winner-Brendon

Replacement Nominee-POV not used

Evicted Houseguest-Andrew, by an 8-0 vote

Thursday, July 29, 2010

• Sounds like Rachel and Brendon are gunning for Kristen to be evicted soon telling Britney that Kristen will have the men, mainly Hayden, carry her to the end without any bad blood on her hands.
• Matt tells Britney that once Brendon is evicted, he plans to mess with Rachel to get her to quit the game.
• Britney tells Lane that she will not target Brendon and Rachel should she win HOH. Lane is less than excited about that opinion and threatens her by saying if she does not nominate Brendon and Rachel that the whole house will come after her next.
• Enzo and Lane hope one of the "Brigade" members (Enzo, Lane, Matt and Hayden) win HOH next week as they will be safe and eligible to head to the jury house. They look forward to drinking in excess together at the jury house. Enzo also talks about sneaking food as a have-not, saying he's lucky he has not received any kind of penalty so far for it.
• Brendon and Rachel continue to campaign to keep Andrew, which convinces everyone, except Regan who is only just suspicious, that Brendon, Rachel and Andrew are in an alliance. Despite four days of campaigning from his buddies, it does not appear that many will vote to keep Andrew. Regan tells Matt in the HOH room that Brendon is an idiot and calling him a "f***ing retarded monkey."

Wednesday, July 28, 2010

• Andrew and Kristen argued over the fact that Kristen has spent the week comforting Kathy. Andrew feels that Kristen and Hayden should have made an attempt to let him know that he was still okay with them and that they were still voting to keep him. Kristen feels that Andrew should have come to her if he needed any reassurance or comfort.
• Kathy continues to campaign for votes and after Andrew has self-destructed it looks like she may end up safe.
• Andrew calls a house meeting so that he can publicly apologize to Kristen. With tears in his eyes, he tries to explain how emotional this week has been. He explains that being nominated and being a Have Not at the same time lead to an emotional, stressful time for anyone. He also takes this time to apologize to Rachel if she felt insulted by his POV speech, explaining that he didn't mean it as an insult. The meeting came across as heart-felt and you could see that the others were touched. It may be too late for him to be saved this week but it was a good gesture on his part.

Tuesday, July 27, 2010

• Sounds like the houseguests are coming to a consensus that Andrew needs to go this week. Pretty much everyone knows that he is working with Brendon and Rachel and thus a threat.
• Kathy is still upset about Andrew's speech at the POV ceremony, however at the ceremony, Kathy urged Brandon to not use the POV.
• Rachel is getting upset with Andrew for keeping secrets from her, i.e. making a big scene at the POV ceremony. Rachel and Brendon contemplate turning on Andrew to keep Kathy instead.
• Brendon declares to Rachel that he loves her. Rachel is a bit intimidated by the L-word, but continues to make out with Brendon regardless.
• Regan and Lane talk about evicting Andrew this week, noting that once Andrew, Brendon and Rachel get wind that Andrew is going this week all hell will break loose.
• Matt is upset that his plan to get rid of Brendon failed. Kristen tells Matt that Rachel is campaigning for Andrew, including asking her to keep Andrew over Kathy.

Monday, July 26, 2010

• Matt and Lane talk about where Regan is in terms of alliances, noting that Matt knows Regan would not nominate Hayden or himself, but is not sure about the rest of the "brigade" meaning Lane or Enzo.
• Kathy thinks the POV was rigged, specifically that the bag of names for players in the POV competition was stuffed with Rachel and Brendon. She's upset that the plan to backdoor Brendon this week failed. Kathy also adds that her plan to lay low in the house is not working too well as she may be going home this week.
• Britney and Matt are unsure as to who they should evict this week between Andrew and Kathy. They lean towards Andrew as he is a better competitor and may align with Rachel and Brendon. They note that only one week remains before the jury house starts and both need to start making major moves.
• Rachel and Brendon strategize for the game down the road saying they need to split up more and make ties with other houseguests rather than spending all their time with each other.
• POV ceremony is held, but it doesn't sound like the POV was used. Apparently during the ceremony Andrew made a speech in which he declared he was going after Rachel and Brendon, causing Rachel to blow up on him. The rest of the houseguests don't buy it, thinking it's a sure sign that Andrew is aligned with Rachel and Brendon. Later on, Andrew tells Rachel that she over-played the blow up, confirming that it was all fake.

Sunday, July 25, 2010

• Many are asking Matt why he didn't put Brendon and Rachel on the block with his original nominations, including Enzo who is pretty livid over the decision. Now that Brendon has won the POV, he's not likely to use it knowing Rachel will be a replacement nominee.
• Between whining about not wanting to go home, Kathy shares stories about being a law enforcement officer and pranks the veteran officers pull on the new recruits.
• Matt, Lane and Enzo strategize about how to break up the Rachel-Brendon alliance, adding that perhaps they should target Brendon as soon as possible knowing Rachel will go nuts without him and possibly quit the game, noting that Rachel previously stated she "would take Brendon over $500,000."
• It sounds like there is no clear favorite for which player to keep and which to evict this week with Matt and Regan thinking the vote may be a tie at 4-4. Regan wants to keep Andrew but does not want to make that known and hurt Kathy's feelings.
• Rachel and Brendon talk about sex, with Brendon stating that it won't happen until they are married.

Saturday, July 24, 2010

• Brendon won the POV and messed up any attempt at getting him or Rachel out this week.
• Matt is discussing who they should evict between Kathy and Andrew this week. He wants the vote to be a tie so that he can be the tiebreaker vote to vote out Kathy. He thinks this will help get Andrew on his side so that the 'Brigade' alliance can use him down the road.
• There are also discussions about voting out Andrew because he proved that he is a strong player by lasting so long in the HOH Endurance comp.
• Britney again shares her conspiracy theories in the house including the most recent claim that Lane and Kristen are actually twins. She continues on about how Brendon is a sore loser with an arrogant attitude. It sounds like the houseguests have also given Rachel a nickname, Boy George.

Friday, July 23, 2010

• Matt offers Rachel and Brendon a deal for the week. In exchange for him being safe next week, he offers to keep them off the block if they agree, but if they don't, they both will go on the block this week.
• Britney thinks Kristen and Hayden knew each other prior to coming into the house, saying they are brother and sister.
• After a short outside lockdown, the houseguests are unhappy to learn their have-not food for the week is bok choy and baby food.
• The nomination ceremony is held with Matt nominating Andrew and Kathy for eviction.

Thursday, July 22, 2010

HOH Endurance Competition

• The endurance comp had the houseguests on moving surfboards. The surfboards are moving back and forth making the competitors have to walk forward and backwards in order to stay on them. In the meantime, water and wind are added into the mix every so often. The first five to drop are the Haves for the week, while the last ones to drop before the final person are the Have Nots. The one left standing, Matt, was named the new Head of Household. Matt and Regan lasted nearly three hours in the competition. They made a deal in private prior to Regan stepping down and giving Matt the HoH, which they later share with Rachel and Brendon.

Out of the Competition

• Lane - Have
• Kathy - Have
• Kristen - Have
• Hayden - Have
• Britney - Have
• Enzo - Have Not
• Brendon - Have Not
• Andrew - Have Not
• Ragan - Have Not

Thursday, July 22, 2010, Continued

• Rachel, who is afraid that she will be back-doored this week, is upset because production will not give them alcohol. She has a couple breakdowns during the evening, crying and complaining.
• Matt gets his HoH room which includes a pirate flag and a bunch of candy.
• Rachel eventually gets her alcohol and gets pretty wasted. In her drunken state she talks about Brendon's size and how many children they will have.

Evicted Houseguest-Monet by a vote of 7-2

Daily Drama and Rumors

While Annie, the saboteur is gone, the houseguests have no idea. They suspect Andrew still, as well as Matt, which keeps them on their toes.

Wednesday, July 21, 2010

• Britney continues to stress over the fact that Monet is likely going to be evicted this week. She mentions the production staff in the diary room keep asking her over and over how she feels about it.
• All houseguests are on an inside lockdown as production begins to set up the HoH competition. The houseguests anticipate it will be an endurance competition of some sort.
• During the lockdown, the houseguests play a game where they sit in the HoH room watching the rest of the house. One team of houseguests go downstairs and move things (while the monitor is turned to a different area of the house) and the group in the HoH room attempt to figure out what was moved. Initially many feel the game is "so lame" but they eventually get into it.
• Matt find some of Annie's clothes and puts them on.

Tuesday, July 20, 2010

• Hayden and Kristen are still spending a lot of time together, including late-night talks in bed. As Kristen has someone else outside of the house, she worries that Julie Chen will put them on the spot during the live show and expose their budding romance. Hayden mentions that America will see him as a homewrecker.
• Monet is trying her best to campaign for votes to keep her in the house. She realizes that she's a target as she already won $10,000, but is hoping for a few votes on her side so she doesn't leave the house with a unanimous vote, like Annie. Monet adds that she's "never said anything malicious about Rachel," which in reality is a lie.
• Many of the houseguests are plotting what they will do should they win HOH next week. Hayden is talking about putting Britney back up on the block while Regan mentions trying to evict Kathy so she cannot coast until the end of show.
• It sounds like Kathy blew up on Britney, calling her fake and pointing out her frequent crocodile tears. Apparently the fight was also about claims that Kristen was campaigning to keep Monet. Britney explains the incident to Rachel in an attempt to convince her to keep Monet, however Rachel is not having any of that.
• Rachel, Britney and Brendon talk in the hammock about the possibility of getting rid of Matt this week, adding that he's been playing both sides of the house the whole time. This is true as Matt has been going around claiming he didn't know he was going to be the replacement nominee when in actuality he volunteered.
• The houseguests call a meeting with everyone to call Matt out on his inconsistencies. Regan defends Matt, although in the end Matt still appears to be playing a shady game.
• Later on in the evening the houseguests get a bit tipsy and what appears to be a third showmance, between Britney and Lane, appears to pop up. Kristen and Hayden continue their relationship, with a drunk Kristen making out with Hayden. She also admits to campaigning for Money and against Matt. Meanwhile, Rachel and Brendon are still getting cozy up in the HOH room.

Monday, July 19, 2010

• The POV ceremony is held with Britney taking herself off the block. Rachel decides to give in to Matt's suggestion that he go up on the block as a pawn and names him the replacement nominee.
• Britney and Monet continue to be miserable in the house, complaining about the other houseguests and how the game is much more difficult than they anticipated. They also talk about their "mean girls" plan, including to steal Kathy's cigarettes if she won't side with them.
• Brendon is name dropping in the bathroom with Rachel, Kathy and Kristen. He says he is good friends with a choreographer for Britney Spears.
• Lane and Matt speak in the storage room about where they think Andrew's alliance lies. At first they thought he was with Rachel and Brendon but now they think he's a "free agent." Lane wants Britney to win HoH next week so the house can backdoor and evict Brendon.

Sunday, July 18, 2010

• Rachel has a change of heart and considers making a deal with Britney and Monet to keep both of them safe this week. Brendon says he will support Rachel's decision one way or another, but warns her that Monet and Britney are dangerous. Rachel is thinking ahead in the game, with the hopes to anticipate the repercussions of what happens now down the road.
• It sounds like the houseguests know that Annie was the saboteur as Britney talks about contacting Annie on Facebook to ask if she got to pick the pranks or someone else, like production or fans, selected them.
• Matt volunteers himself to Rachel to go up on the block as a pawn in order to evict Monet. Rachel is unsure what she wants to do right now as Matt is also asking for protection in the future. Matt spreads the word around the house that he will be the pawn, with Monet as the target to evict this week. He also asks Rachel to announce that plan openly during the POV ceremony. Enzo is leery of the plan, suggesting he'd rather see Monet stay this week and Andrew go home.
• Rachel is still undecided as to who she will pick for the replacement nominee. Andrew tries to convince Rachel and Brendon that Matt cannot be trusted. The heated conversation about the replacement nominee leads to Rachel and Brendon's first showmance fight. Brendon storms out of the HoH room leaving Rachel crying on the bed. They eventually make up and head to the hammock outside for a lengthy make-out session.

Saturday, July 17, 2010

• Britney wins the POV. It sounds like the POV was some sort of endurance competition as the houseguests mention that there were only 14 seconds between when Britney, the winner, and the runner-up dropped.
• With her little bit of leverage, Britney explains her intentions to align with Rachel and Brendon this week, then backdoor them next week.
• Rachel and Brendon talk in the HoH room about who should be the replacement nominee when Britney takes herself off the block. They suggest putting Matt up as a pawn, with the intention to get rid of Monet.
• Britney attempts to make a deal with Rachel, asking to put Andrew up on the block, save Monet this week and evict Andrew. Britney offers Rachel safety for three weeks, or as long as it takes. It doesn't sound like Rachel is going to bite, knowing that Britney will want to get rid of her and Brendon as soon as they can.

Friday, July 16, 2010

• Following Annie's eviction, Britney and Monet both regret the decision, thinking it would have been a better move to keep Annie and get rid of Rachel.
• Britney also thinks Andrew has an alliance with Rachel and Brendon, which leads to a short fight between Britney and Andrew.
• Rachel gets to see her HoH room, which includes an inspirational letter from home and a bottle of tequila. Brendon and Rachel enjoy the tequila, gets a bit tipsy and discuss how they are the "power couple" in the house, making them unstoppable. They also spends a great deal of time up in the HoH room smooching.
• Matt fears he will be nominated for eviction this week, but Lane reassures him that he's safe, noting Brendon wants to get rid of Monet or Enzo next.

Head of Household-Hayden Moss

Nominees-Rachel and Brendon

POV Players-Brendon, Rachel, Hayden, Enzo, Monet and Andrew

POV Winner-Brendon

Replacement Nominee-Annie

Evicted Houseguest-Annie by a 10-0 vote

Daily Drama and Rumors

Looks like at this point the majority of the houseguests believe that Andrew is the saboteur. Andrew has made some remarks that have led a few of the girls to think he is a pervert. Brendon and Rachel are filling Andrew in and telling him to chill on the weirdness.http://jokersupdates.com/ The saboteur, has continued to play wreak havoc and stir up suspicions in the house.

The first Big Brother "showmance" has begun between Rachel and Brendon. This could end up being cut short since both are up for eviction this week. Brendon won the Power of Veto, so he is safe, but Rachel's fate is still unknown at this point. She does still have hope though, because the talk in the house is that Annie may get backdoored this week. Things change so fast that only time will tell what will actually happen.

Thursday, July 15, 2010

• Before the live eviction Julie Chen reveals who the saboteur is to the viewers. And the saboteur is~~~drum roll please~~~ Annie!
• Annie pleads her case to the houseguests just before they vote for eviction. She stresses that Rachel should be evicted as she has Brendon, a very strong player, to carry her through the game. Despite her pleas, the houseguests vote 10-0 to evict Anne.
• The houseguests compete for HoH for week two. The game is a multiple-choice game where they predict which of two houseguests they think the rest of the contestants are more likely to pick for a variety of things like winning the Big Brother bikini contest. After several rounds, Rachel, Britney and Monet remain. In the tie-breaking question, the ladies are asked how many gallons of caramel were used in the first have and have-nots contest. Rachel guessed the closest and was named HoH for week two.

Wednesday, July 14, 2010

• As Rachel and Brendon continue their showmance, Monet and Britney begin to suspect that Rachel and Brendon knew each other prior to being on the show. Monet adds that Rachel is "good at being a whore-bag, slut-face" and suspects that Brendon is actually a doctor of some kind, rather than a swim coach as he claims.
• Enzo suspects the saboteur is female and possibly Annie, as she was unaccounted for during the blackout.
• Kathy feels bad for Annie, who continues to campaign around the house to save herself, and tries to distract her and keep her away from stalking the rest of the houseguests.

Tuesday, July 13, 2010

• Not too much to report on today. Sunning, eating and Annie repeating the same things over and over to everyone in the house. At this point I bet every houseguest could plead her case word for word for her.

Monday, July 12, 2010

• The houseguests are on an inside lockdown while production prepares the backyard for a competition. Britney thinks it may be a luxury competition of some sort.
• Annie has been campaigning around the house looking for votes.

Sunday, July 11, 2010

• Brendon chooses to use the POV and take himself off the block. Hayden, thinking that Annie may be the savoteur, nominates Annie as the replacement nominee.
• After the POV ceremony, Annie is losing her cool. She has made remarks in front of the other houseguests to try and make Brendon and Britney look bad. Seems like there was a confrontation between Annie and Britney during the POV ceremony. Needless to say, she is not happy about being on the block.

Saturday, July 10, 2010
