:00 Previously on Big Brother… it’s recapping time, bbcrazies! Tonight it’s a birthday Keesha will never forget…

:02 We start back at the end of the nomination ceremony, as usual for a Tuesday night. April tells Jessie and Memphis they were nominated, jessie because he was strong and people are intimidated, and Memphis because he won the car. Memphis tells us it sucks that he’s nominated with jessie, they’re getting picked off one by one. Jessie says it’s an honor to be nominated 3 outa 4 weeks, he’s not the target, but we’ll see how that goes. Michelle says if you know anything about big brother, the pawn goes home. April says her target is Memphis, she doesn’t care if they want Jessie out because he’s targeting them, she promised to keep him safe. She asks Jessie to trust her, and he says he does. He and Ollie reaffirm their trust, and that they all have the same understanding that Jessie will stay.

AP music! It’s time for Dan to get his AP task! Whoo! He loves this. WHich houseguest should he hug for at least 10 seconds. He opens it and it’s Jessie and he says AW NO! What are you THINKIN? If you want Dan and jessie to hug, you’ll get it for an awkward 10 seconds. His plan is to approach him with a sob story about Monica, he’s huge and tough, butinside he’s a softy…

Dan asks to talk to him about some personal stuff, and Dan turns on the waterworks. The music is cracking me up. He wonders if Monica will be there when he gets out, and if he’s not, what is the point, and Jessi gives him a hug, and then starts his look at him in the eyes, stay strong, there’s not one person that wants him to lose his girl. Dan tells us Jessie was moved, and a part of him feels bad - here comes the hug! Jessie is still promiseing him and he gets the 10 seconds, Dan smiles at the camera, and the hug breaks up at 17 seconds. hahah! He thanks Jessie, and asks for him to close the door when he leaves.

Cue Dan laughing as he looks up at the camera and us. Task completed!

:07 Time to pick players for the Veto competition! April picks Michelle, Jessie tells us that made him feel confident, 2 for team jessie. Jessie picks Libra, Memphis picks Jerry. April chooses Renny to host the competition. Good luck houseguests!

April says she feels the competition lays soley in her hands, she’s not sure what Libra and Jerry can do and Libra always has an excuse for the competitions she’s lost.

April tells Keesha and Dan and Ollie that the two people she didn’t want chosen were chosen, and she’s stressed. Libra and Renny join, and Libra says maybe it’s something Jerry is fantastic at - April says it sucks really bad, it’s not a nose picking comp. Libra says that she’s playing too, and not to count her out, and she feels like she’s not there and will try her hardest and starts getting upset. Dan tries to smooth it over, and she’s not buying it. She leaves and tells us that her feelings were hurt, that she was nothing, nobody to her own team. Keesha and Dan leave too, leaving April and Ollie together and Apirl goes off about LIbra having excuses for everything and is a bitch.

Downstairs, Libra tells Keesha that she was upset, and Jessie tells us he was woken by a screaming Libra from his 3rd or 4th nap of the day, and Keesha is going off about no one can tell her who to talk too, and she’s pissed, and Libra’s feelings are hurt. Jessie smiles, then runs upstairs to tell ollie and April what’s going on, that she’s yelling, and April is like what did I do to her? Jessie says tells them more of what’s happening, and April is getting more and more upset at the minute, and Jessie leaves - and laughs in the DR about it. “One of his naps finally payed off!”

Ollie says peoples true colors are coming out, April says she’s going to confront her, and it’s going to get ugly. Ollie won’t stop her.

:12 Commercial!

:16 We’re back, and the house is about to explode! Ollie tells April to get her mind right, and forget it. April tells us that after Jessie told her that she was upset and pissed off. She heads downstairs, and confronts Libra and Keesha, and Libra says she’s upset and her feelings are hurt, April says that she didn’t yell at her, and April says well i heard, and Libra is all who do we need to talk to right now, i didn’t say that - and April tells her what exactly she said, Keesha says she didn’t say anything about Steven and Memphis, and says it’s messed up and leaves. April and Libra are in there, and Keesha asks Michelle if she told, and Michelle says she was there with Renny, and Keesha goes off.

In the hippy room, Libra is talking about her feelings being hurt again, and April says that she feels a lot of pressure on herself, while keesha is calling her a little bitch and high and mighty, and Renny says it’s her birthday, and she and Michelle try to get her to calm down, and Keesha is pacing and yelling, and goes in to confront April, and says she doesn’t feeling like she’s talking down to her, and Renny tries to get them to calm down and stuff, too, and April says she can only handle one conversation at a time, and Keesha says she doesn’t deserve it. Libra says it was one on one, and April says it was loud enough for people to hear, and Keesha says someone is bing two-faced as f— in there, and Keesha demands to know who said it. April says Jessie, and Libra was like OMG… Jessie, UGH!

And memphis tells the camera/us that this is why you put 30 year old women in the house. Jerry goes into the room and says taht Memphis is making fun of them, Libra inturrupts, and Jerry tells her to shut up, and Libra gets upset, and Renny jumps in and tells him that he’s inappropriate. Renny storms out and then tells Memphis that if Jerry sticks his finger in her face she’ll shove it down her throat, and that Jerry says Memphis is making fun of everyone, an memphis goes in, and people say that there’s birthday cake out there, and people head out to the cake.

Libra and April are still in there and she says she has nothing to hide, and HERE COMES JESSIE! He enters the Hippie room and…

:23 Commercial! hahahah! (Whew! And yes, it was this hard to keep up with the night it happened too! The edit here is excellent! They’re shoving in as much as they can, and so far that’s a whole bunch!)

(And the place I watch the feed from the East coast just went totally down - both sites are down, so.. um…. yeah. They’re trying to reload it… I’ll jump in when they do. You can catch my coverage of the fight itself the night it happened, here. Looks like I’ll have to wait until I watch it later tonight in my own time zone! At least it’s not a live show, right? Right! )

(Alrighty - I’m back from my meeting in perfect time to recap the rest in my own timezone. Whoo!)

:27 Jessie enters the Hippie room after hearing his name, and Libra goes off and says she won’t play the gmae, conversation ended, Jessie says no, and she goes on and is all ABW on him, and Jessie just smirks at her, as Ollie watches from the sidelines. She says she’s tired of him, she knows what she said and he’s running back and forth, it’s over. The others can hear them yelling from the kitchen, and Libra says she’s tired of hearing Jessie talk, and Jessie says she’s not hurting him any, and she repeats it, and he says what, you’re repeating everything I say, she says that she’s sick of him and he’s getting on her nerves.

Keesha decides whoever is in there can sing, she won’t wait anymore. Libra goes back to get April, walking in on Jessie talking to April and pleading his case, she says she knows exactly what she said.

And this Happy Birthday song has got to be the most AWKWARD moment EVER… ended with a tense silence. Libra says “anyone want cake?” and Keesha says thanks, and LIbra starts again, and apologizes and then Jessie jumps in and apologizes for being honest and Libra goes OFF, then Michelle asks what started the fight, and it was he said she said and Keesha says oh no, I know exactly what was said, someone said I was talking shit on someone, and Jessie says “And you were.” and Keesha goes OFF and f-bombs and fingers go flying as she stomps off and calls him arrogant and he says “Oh yeah, I’m arrogant, I got woke up, I wasn’t even involved, and Libra tells Memphis “Everyday is a new day, buddy!” and Jessie retorts “can’t vote me out if I’m not on the block.”

:31 Commercial!

:37 It’s time for the Veto competition! ibra says it was about to start and she was feeling axious, April says she’s going to whatever she can to win. The slapshot competition is about to begin - everyone is in hocky gear, and each round, the player who shoots farthest from the center section, and is eliminated, but they earn a prize, one of which is the veto. Don’t get too attached to any prize though, because the next eliminated player can keep the prize or exchange it with any other prize that’s been revealed. The winner of the 5th round can choose any prize.

Michelle is up first - she scores 3. Libra 2, April 2, Jessie 4, Jerry 3, Memphis misses the net and almost hits Renny and is (whistle) ejected! *L* He gets the veto. He mutters it’s only good for them.

Round two. Libra 5, April 1, Jessie 4, Jerry 3, Michelle misses the net! (Renny is SO CUTE…) and Libra says it was the perfect order, Jessie felt alone. Michelle’s prize is a Vacation to Hawaii. She keeps it. She tells us she may as well keep it, and hope JEssie wins the POV on his own.

Round 3. April 1, Jessie 8, Jerry 3, Libra 7. Jessie is eliminated. He says he didn’t have a clue what he was doing, it was kind of related to golf, but he doesn’t golf because “I dunno, my back’s too big, maybe?” He gets a Slop Surprise, and trades it for the POV.

Round 4. Jerry 2, Libra 2, April 7. April gets $10k in BB gold bars, each $1k bar can be used in the house as she sees fit, she can transfer it for any reason or keep it - like taking herself off the block. Each bar is redeemable for $1k upon eviction. She keeps it. She tells us that she kept it because she did her heart in the game this week, it was selfish.

Round 5. Libra - perfect score! Jerry 3. Jerry is eliminated and gets a Letter from home. He asks April if she’ll split the 10 three ways, she says yes, he tells Libra, and he takes the Veto. Jessie gets the Letter from home, and Libra gets the Grand Prize - the Red Unitard!! Jessie starts laughing, as does Michelle. She’s earned the right to wear Jen and SHeila’s unitard for a week - she can keep it, or trade for another prize. She trades for the Hawaiian Surprise - which has Michelle in shock, and obviously upset. She says “I appreciate it” and LIbra is all smiles. It’s a trip for 2 to Maui.

Michelle yells in the DR, and goes off - how did everyone make out and I get the shaft - 10k, and this is what I get? Shes even throwing it.

The sloip surprise - it’s a one week slop pass, and he gets to choose one person to be on slop for one week. He chooses jerry, and tells us it salted in wounds already opened - he knew Jerry wouldn’t use it on him anyway. Jerry says he’s shown the people that he’s a force to be reconned with.

Jessie tels us that he’s standing up for the little people and can hold his head up high for doing the right thing. Michelle is freaking out on Jessie, that she’s done, done, done, and he’s telling her not to let Libra win. Michelle is upset, Libra didn’t take the letter from home? what kind of mother is that? In DR - the F-bombs are flying, she gets put there by someone who should get her kids taken away because she’s a whore/slut/skank? This is what you get for the rest of the DR - she turns her back to the camera, and contiues to bitch and moan, and she’s upset she has to wear it on live tv - it’s her live story. She always gets the shaft. And Jessie is trying to calm her down and she’s all I don’t care…

Jessie follows to her bed, and consoles her, and it’s really kind of sweet, telling her he’ll do everything he can to insure she wins HOH and gets her letter from home and sees her pictures.

:51 Commercial!

:55 It’s time for the POV meeting. April says that she’s pretty sure that Jerry won’t use the POV, but not 100%. He calls the meeting to order. Jessie speaks first - he says that he knows why he’s there, and he understands if he won’t stick his neck out and take him off, he repsects whatever Jerry does. Memphis says He wouldn’t expect Jerry tot ake him off, they’ve had problems from day one, he respects him for whatever decision, and hope he realizes he has the power and whatever he does is in good for his game.

Jerry says he appreciates the comments, and he’s decided not to use the power of veto. April smiles. Michelle is still pissed off. The meeting is adjourned.

Memphis says it wasn’t a surprise, but it was a long time till thursday and he’ll just secure his votes to stay. Jessie says on the up side, he has the votes and will stay in the house it’s a “sweet cookie to eat.” April says that her target is Memphis, she’s not there to help her alliance win 500k, she’s there to help herself win. Libra says she’s tired of being attacked, she’ll vote Jessie out.
