Big Brother Craze

…that’s right, boys and girls, one of the wakeup songs today was the Hokey-Pokey! You can imagine the hilarity this will involve later when Michelle tries to fit it into her theories.

Speaking of Michelle - she’s on the campaign path already this morning, and they just woke them up an hour or so ago! Ollie’s still on the Roulette theory, and asked Jerry how many bullets go into a gun, so he could figure it out better. If Dan dares to ask Ollie to take a picture today (yesterday the Spew Crew said they would refuse..) he would say wait, and grab a plant. A subtle message, and all. Snerk.

So, Michelle approached Keesha briefly this morning, asking if she knew who she was going to vote for. Keesha said she didn’t know, and Michelle launched her theory that Dan has a deal with Jerry to keep him safe, because why else would he put Memphis up and ask him not to use the veto on himself? Nothing else makes sense, there has to be a reason! Dan must want Memphis out.

—looks like Dan’s plan to get suspicion off him and Memphis’ Renegade alliance has worked like a charm.

Michelle also promises not to put Keesha and Renny up next week if she stays and gets HOH. Keesha hops out to talk to Memphis, and the discuss why Dan did what he did this week. She says a couple of times that she’s not questioning Dan, just talking to Memphis. They can’t figure out his reasoning to tell Ollie/Michelle that he was going to try to get Memphis not to use the POV. Memphis points out that he never asked him that. They don’t doubt Dan, they’re just curious about it all, Dan has proven himself, and actions are louder then words.

Memphis went to the diary room, where he was questioned about Renny, so told Keesha she’d be called too - she says she “can only imagine!” Renny pops out and says she was just trying to save herself.

Dan heads up to get the camera, finds the computer, sits down to blog. Outside, Michelle seizes the moment to talk to Memphis, and tell him Jerry is coming after him. (this is news?) She won’t put him up, but Jerry would, and he can put someone up for her if she wins HOH. (because that went over so well this week..) She pushes the ‘Dan asked you not to use the veto, and put you up” angle a couple times and Memphis just says he knows she adds

Michelle: You know he had a deal with Jerry in the beginning - where does that leave you?

She heads back inside, Memphis remains on the couch, rolls his eyes when she leaves.

In the bathroom, Michelle takes the opportunity to tell Renny/Keesha that she wanted to tell them together that she won’t come after them if she gets HOH, and understands that she’d go on the block if they win and is ok with that. If Jerry stays, they’re going to be in trouble. Then it’s back to hair and makeup.

Memphis at the sink, Ollie at the counter, not a word. Dan walks by, not a word thee either.

It’s Picture Time! He’s got ideas, too. Including some mugging with the key/pov necklace. Oh yes. Shirts for them to wear - whatever they want first, then St. Mary’s shirts. Renny offers to gt in the shower, pretend she’s naked. He tries to tell Renny to be candid, no posing - she poses anyway *L* He takes a picture of Keesha in the shower changing,

Renny: how come I couldn’t get in the shower?!
Dan: Candid shots, Renny!

This one’s for you, Ashley!

AS always, there’s a ton of random caps and more of the HOH pics in the Gallery!

And now it’s back to game talk, as Michelle tells Ollie her version of the conversations she had with Renny/Keesha this morning. Versions that of course mean they’re going to keep her… Meanwhile, Ollie is hiding his face pretending to be asleep anytime someone walks by, and he refused to take pictures. Party Pooper Poor Sport!

Outside Renny/Keesha
Keesha: You know Renny, take this for what it’s worth, I would love to see you and I make it to the end. At least to the final four. Or next week. You have to take it week by week.
Renny: If the Colonel wins I think he’s going to put up Memphis and Dan. It’s the numbers, One of us would go up because he wouldn’t put up Ollie. If Ollie wins I think he’d put them up too.

She says she won’t use POV to save one either, that’d be stupid.

Memphis joins, and laughs that he took a picture of Dan kissing Monica’s picture - and they laugh about him being whipped. He’s also starting to relax, drank a beer out of a bottle last night.
Renny: Maybe because I said something - those boys would think he’s cool if they see him take a beer!

They comment that Ollie refused to take pictures, they took a lot of pictures.

Keesha: I am happy that it’s down to a month! That’s something I’m very excited about.
Memphis: it’s a good feeling, huh? It’s crazy we’ve been in here two months.

Michelle/Ollie in the Spa, going over what she’s going to ask Dan when they talk later.
Michelle: - if it’s a tie breaker, but I don’t think you’ll tell me the truth. Ask him about the pictures, and ask him if he’s a plant - are you America’s coach, are you getting coached by America? I saw Monica in the cafeteria. I’m gonna ask him square. And plant suspicions with Renny, say hey renny, remember the songs Monday? The gunshot? Roulette? Is it a correlation of something? OOOOH that’s the word she heard them (Libra/Dan) use! I’ve thrown my cards on the table… If I stay, I stay.

She goes over songs with Jerry next, then tells Keesha her suspicions - Roulette, the shooting song, monday… think about that!

Keesha: you catch every little detail…

They talk about Jerry and how he hasn’t talked to anyone, and he says he’ll avenge Michelle, etc.
Michelle: Keep me here and you secure yourself one week closer, one more week. I didn’t have anything to do with that deal, why am I up? It doesn’t make sense, you know? I know you love Jerry, so.. (smirk)
Keesha: Oh yeah…

Keesha: I was told you were totally throwing me under the bus
Michelle: what? He told me to tell you name! He was setting up everyone, you were gonna put me up! So we come at each other, he sits pretty. Think about it.
Keesha: oh my gosh… you know, there was only so many people in here, you know me..
Michelle: when I heard the song, about the gun? Russian Roulette and the gun? I knew it was a set up! I knew!
Keesha: It was a set up.
MIchelle: He told me upstairs that you guys were trying to get me put up… he even told me, told me upstairs he even told me that when Ollie was upstairs, he said to wait until you see Renny to come downstairs…
Keesha: (makes a face)

Jerry walks in, they switch to talking about Ohio.

Keesha: I don’t care about how this game is played, what I say I generally mean.
Michelle: Just really question why he put up Memphis.. and the deal I knew nothing about. He told Jerry that the JFK/NIxon story, be cool your safe?
Keesha: It doesn’t make sense why he was like, don’t use the pov?
Michelle: I asked Memphis myself, it doesn’t make sense though. Jerry says Dan told him he was safe, so he made a deal pre-HOH, that he’d keep Jerry safe, why would he fuck over Ollie like that? Why would he put me up with Ollie coming back? Unless he knew he had a deal with Jerry? Who’s going up? It’ll be you/Renny… you/Memphis… I’m telling you, if I’m here, I won’t put up you or Renny, neither will Ollie, it guarentees you guys one week, with the numbers in your favor. It doesn’t make sense that everyone hates each other and he looks good.
Keesha: We all look like asses.
Michelle: he told me upstairs that he trusted me the most out of everyone, that’s why he had to put me up… and he said if Keesha had been protected, she’d be up? He said yeah, it was all a game, all a game. He’s gonna be laughing because you got mad at me, Renny’s mad at Ollie, adn that leaves them safe. I can get Ollie to vote for me, I think.
Keesha: He won’t vote for Jerry
Michelle: I don’t know. If I have you and Renny, I stay. And that’s one week extra! You only need two votes next week! He’s playing with you guys, thinking you’ll be all omg ok! And he’s sitting there, in HOH… thinking he’s gonna be safe since he didn’t put Ollie up, and keep Jerry here, because.. You an Renny can secure a week, huge. If you put me up, it’s ok.
Keesha: aaaaaaah omg. It’s so limited anymore. When you start liking everyone what are you supposed to do.
Michelle: they’re weeding out the girls one by one!
Keesha: i see that.
Michelle: and, um, I hope it stays between you and Renny.. I went out of my way to ask Ollie, and I told him waht I was doing, and I’m supposed to tell you from him he’ll keep you safe too. That’s two people - huge! Huge!

—except there’s THREE people on the other side.

Michelle makes a sandwich, then follows Keesha to continue pushing..
Michelle: how would they know about it, Russian Roullette, if it wasn’t set up already?
—um. maybe. because like. um. THEY ARE WATCHING YOU 24/7! OMG.

Keesha: I didn’t get into a fight with him, he yelled at me. He lied to me, bald faced lied… (story of what happen between her and Jerry again)

Michelle; well, you and Renny have the power to get rid of him.I mean, you might not like what I’ve done? but I am always honest. I wish I’d get to see another Banner…
—too easy. too easy.

Briefly, Keesha and Renny touch bases..
Keesha: We really gotta think about this to make sure we make it through. Me and you.
Renny: We need to think about all options. Memphis is very powerful with the PoVs.
Keesha: Jerry is too. Memphis has only won one.
Renny: Yeah.. but he’s been holding back. He could have had that one but he went for the mystery box. We might have to put them guys up…

General chitchat around now, Keesha/Ollie about how they think they’re being portrayed, etc.

Michelle is in the poodle room crying under a pillow, Dan comes through and gives her a hug.
Michelle: To be done this way, I don’t deserve it. I didn’t even think, it’s not fair.
Dan: I don’t want to see you like this.
Michelle: If you had put me up at the beginning, I’d have been ok. I didn’t make the deal, I don’t know about it, I don’t understand why me, why not Ollie, and you want to keep Jerry here? I didn’t expect this from anybody, especially you.
Dan: I like you Michelle, I really do.
Michelle: Why not Ollie, why me? You would have put Ollie up - you hd the deal with him, not with me! I don’t understand! You tell everyone you want me to go?
Dan: I don’t know what will happen yet.
Michelle: I didn’t make the deal, and I didn’t put you up like everyone told me too! You’re not going to vote for me to go.
Dan: I don’t know what I’m gonna do. know Ollie’s on a mission to get me out.
Michelle: Why me then? Why not him? I don’t understand! I fel like.. I was a token you played chess with, you didn’t have a deal with me, so why me? It’s not like it’s over yet, I don’t know how the vote, but the russian roulette was a set up.
Dan: I think you were in an alliance.
Michelle: We weren’t! I’m by myself in this game! I don’t understand how I got put in the deal, I don’t even know how it went down! I’m sure they’d listen to you…
Dan: If it’s 2-2 I’m the deciding vote, So.. I’ll talk to you later.
Michelle: If you had just put me up from the beginning, but this way I just don’t understand. Why not put the person up you did the deals with! Are you a plant here?
Dan: huh? what’s that?
Michelle: are you working for AMerica or anything?
Dan: no, not at all!
Michelle: the gunshots, the music, the roulette and everything..
Dan: I din’t tell them till after that.
Michelle: I just don’t even know what’s going on, I’m just a player and I got thrown under the bus and I don’t even know what’s going on.. why not put me up in the beginning.
Dan: don’t know.
Michelle: I’d have accepted that more, I could have won the power of veto, I mean it’s my fault, but the whole thing, Ollie and the bet, I don’t understand. I don’t know why he picked me, I don’t have an alliance. I’m by myself. I’m doing it for myself.
Dan: come talk to me later?

Michelle nods, and he walks away. She looks up at the camera and smiles.

Dan goes outside, tells Memphis and Keesha he feels like an ass he walked in on Michelle crying.
Memphis: What? why.. I mean I can’t even grasp that. It’s a game. Ugh.
Dan: I feel bad..
Keesha: Its a game, I’m not gonna lie I’d feel bad leaving, but. I dunno, I never expected anything.
Dan: I don’t know, I don’t want to make her cry, I told her I dunno what I’m doing, to give her a little hope but.. she asked if I was a plant.. she said she heard gunshots/russian roulette..
Keesha: yeah, she told me that, monday’s songs…
Memphis: (laughs)

Keesha: I’m just really wondering why Jery hasn’t talked to us.
Dan: She said like she heard I wanted Jerry to stay. I was like I haven’t decided. I mean, it’s just me outside, if I see someone crying I want to help.. but what can I say? I can’t say I’m gonna keep her. In my blog I did word association with everyone in the house.
Memphis: great
Keesha: oh lordy.
Dan: it was pretty long though…

Here comes Renny from the DR.
Renny: Dude! Talk about a long time!

REnny: you finish your blog?
Dan: yeah, it’s been like fifty days, since I sat in front of a computer.. I forgot how to spell easy words, like grateful! I walked into Michelle crying when I looked for you guys.
Renny: What did you do?
Dan: I went to talk to her, she was crying, said she didn’t make the deal, didn’t understand, would have played POV harder… I don’t know, it’s the worst thing to make someone cry. She said she heard I told Jerry he was safe and I wanted him to stay…
Renny: she’s still going, right?
Dan: yeah.

Ollie checks on Michelle
Ollie: he listening? they telling you what they’re gonna do? I talked to Keesha, I said, you really think you’ll have another shot to get Jerry? People are taking Jerry for granted, he’ll slip through to the end.

Ollie: How’d weasel ask you for your picture?
Jerry: I told him he didn’t want one, pulled the towel off my head and he went boom, took it. I asked him, what are you gonna do now, use it to tell everyone you fucked me?
Ollie/Michelle laugh..
— and funny, I seem to remember him being willing to take the picture. in fact, they took TWO. When he said that last comment, it was with laughter. How quickly they forget…

Back outside:
Renny: why would Jerry put Keesha up?
Dan: I don’t know. I think he’d like to like memphis, would see him voting Michelle out as an act of loyalty or… I don’t know.
Keesha: Whatever, we’re not going to get through this without being put up.
Renny: Get down to the low numbers now.
Keesha: I’m not gonna be fake with anyone. I can’t do it.
Renny: tell you one thing, I hope she doesn’t start slamming crap. I mean..
Memphis comes out laughing…
Renny: What are you laughing for, Memphis?
Memphis: Just funny stuff, funny stuff. You think that was funny Keesha?
Keesha: yeah I thought so - once I got over my emotional crap.
Memphis: you women!
Keesha: I told him I was emotional today. You don’t have to go through what we do!
Dan: wouldn’t trade for the world, Keesha.
Memphis: I wake up every morning and thank god for my genetics!

Men vs. Women who has it worse… laughter.

Renny: My husband. He’s such a baby, a teddy bear. I could give him a kiss or cuddle and it’ll hold him for a month!

Renny: I just don’t want to be approached, I don’t like to see desperation.
Keesha: I don’t know, I just, I figured it was ok, I didn’t cry
Renny: yes you did!
Keesha: oh.. But who wouldn’t be upset?
Memphis: me!
Dan: thing is, it would be different if she was the host and didn’t get to compete..

Dan tells Memphis that Michelle was all for taking pictures until he went to get her and she was with Ollie, then she was all tough with “Why would I want to take a picture?” Memphis was like “really..” but he’s also asserted that crying shouldn’t save her game. They know she’s pulling out all of the stops. In the DoomRoom, we have jedi training - which if they have an Otev (POV) competition, they’ll have it whipped. Except for the days they can’t remember. Heh.

OK - if the gaming talk starts and they come up with something new, I’ll start a new post!
