Big Brother, Ep. 17.24

Double Eviction Fallout, aka "The Demise of Steve"
No one knows what Steve was thinking putting up Meg and Jackie. I don't even think Steve knows what just happened. James thinks someone gave Steve some wrong information.

Steve said he didn't want to win HOH. He guessed on the final question and he was the only one who got it right. He said no one would vote out Meg, and Jackie is the only one who he has heard talking negatively about him and trying to get him out. The person who told him that was...none other than Vanessa. He knows Becky would have been a better target, and he knows that he just lost the game.

Meg doesn't feel bad for Steve because he said he didn't need to talk to anyone before making his decision.

The twins went to talk to him and he broke down sobbing...like, really sobbing. They thanked him for keeping them safe when he could have easily turned on them. They tried to reassure him that no one hates him for what happened. Vanessa came in and just cradled him like a baby as he just sobbed on her shoulder. He finally asked everyone to leave because he just wanted to be alone. Then he creepily told the camera that he was 50% acting.

Steve asked if Meg and Becky if they wanted to talk and he said he owed them an explanation. He said he didn't want to win HOH and was not prepared with who he would put up. He said Jackie is the only person he's heard that wanted him to be put up. Meg said Jackie had no intention of ever putting him up. Becky said they know that that idea came directly from Vanessa. Becky and Meg said they blame his HOH mess-up on Vanessa and they aren't mad at him because they see the big picture of what's going on.

Each side of the house is hoping to pull Steve to their side. John thinks Steve will be welcomed by Austin, the twins and Vanessa because he put up people from the other side of the house.

HOH Competition
They will play in head-to-head match-ups to answer questions about a screen full of emojis.

Round 1:
James vs. Meg -- Meg wins
Austin vs. John -- John wins
Vanessa vs. Julia -- Julia wins
Becky vs. Liz -- Liz wins

Round 2:
Meg vs. John -- John wins
Julia vs. Liz -- Liz wins (Julia got it wrong)

Round 3:
John vs. Liz -- Liz wins HOH

Noooo! I really wanted John to win this! He is possibly in trouble this week :( And sadly, even though I knew the outcome, I was still hoping what I heard was wrong...especially since I know the outcome of the nominations.

Target Talk/Alliance Names
IMMEDIATELY after winning HOH, Vanessa cornered the twins and talked about who the target should be. She thinks Becky. Then...John walks in, and he just takes his good old time...lol!!

Liz would like to backdoor Becky, and she would put up John and Meg. Vanessa said Meg is not a threat. John can win comps, but they can work with him. Vanessa thinks it would be better to put up both John and Becky together because even though Becky is a good competitor, John can beat her. Austin said if Becky wins Veto, they can put up Meg and send John home or putting up James and send him home. No one likes the idea of sending John home (whew!), but they do like backdooring James.

Finally, there is a need for a new alliance name since 2 of the 6th Sense have gone home. Vanessa suggests "Austin's Angels". No. Just...no. Austin does nothing in this alliance, it should not be centered around him and his name. It should be something like Vanessa's Minions, since she gets everyone to do dirty deeds for her.

Becky talks to Liz, Julia, and Austin. She tells them just how dangerous Vanessa is. Austin still keeps coming back to the time that Vanessa was HOH and he was potentially going to be put up to be backdoored. He asked Becky if someone was supposed to throw the Veto comp...because this is very important for him to know. Becky said "yes" and she said Vanessa knew about it. That made him so mad. Really, he should have known that Vanessa knew. Duh...she was HOH! The twins' minds are also blown as they find out all this new information about Vanessa.

Liz and Austin talk to James and Steve. James and Steve have been hanging out A LOT! It's turning into quite the little bromance.  Steve likes books. James likes beer. The little video package of them together was absolutely hilarious! They were even wearing matching hats!

Vanessa joins, and thinks they all need to come up with an alliance name. Steve suggests using first letters of their names. They all think that's stupid. Austin suggests Sickos, Weirdos, and Freaks, or the Alternative Lifestyle Group. Oh my gosh...dumbest names ever!! Steve suggests Geek Squad or Freak Squad and then Austin said Freaky Geeks. Liz (or Julia) said HBIC (Hot Bitches in Charge). Wow, these people are so dumb. If they can't even come up with a decent name, they should not be in power. They finally settle on The Scamper Squad. I have no idea what that means. So stupid.

John and Vanessa
John asked Vanessa if he was going on the block. She said she didn't know because Liz makes her own decisions. He knows she talked to Liz, though. She said she knows for a fact that he is not her main target. Vanessa says John is someone she would like to work with, but because of the whole fight with Clay things have been weird between them. So, she wants to get everything between them out on the table. She said she wants to help him, but she's not sure where he's at. She wants to make sure that what she tells him that she's afraid that anything she tells him will go back to Becky. He said he wouldn't say anything. She asks him if he would like to know what she thinks he could do to improve his game (that doesn't sound all holier than thou, does it?). He said "sure". She said she thinks that he has something against her that she thinks is unfounded and she's not sure where it came from. He said that during their fight, he felt like he was being bullied. She didn't understand why he felt that way. He said that he felt like she asking him to throw one of 2 people under the bus and he had no idea what was going on. She said she doesn't think it's fair to say it was all her fault. He laughed and said this is only coming up because she is talking about it. He said in the DR that he was just trying to tell her his feelings and where he was coming from and she didn't like that, and she's afraid if too many people think that she is a bully that she will be in trouble. She asked him if they were on the same page, and he said they were. She said that him using the word "bully" with her is not something you say when you're cool with someone and that worries her. She asked him again if they were on the same page with the incident or if he thinks she could have handled things differently. He was totally honest with her and said that he doesn't like it when she cries and yells at people. She looked shocked. She said in the DR that she was trying her hardest to pull him into an alliance and let him know that he can trust her, but he was doing everything he could to make it seem like she was targetting him. She told him that she is sorry he feels that way and he won't ever have to worry about that happening with him.

What's coming next...I read this on the live feeds and it made me sooooo mad! Vanessa smelled blood and she was out for the kill...

After her talk with John, she could clearly tell that he was skeptical of her and if he shared his thoughts about her with anyone else in the house she would be in trouble, so she went on the offensive. She ran up to the HOH room and said she got some bad info on John. She said after the conversation she just had with him, she's not sure he should just be the pawn anymore. Before she could say anything else, John slinks up to the HOH room. Vanessa asks if she can finish talking to them first. He said it just looks fishy because he and Vanessa were just talking and now she is up there talking. He wanted to make sure they were OK. Vanessa said they were, so he reluctantly left. Vanessa thinks that John is just crazy and he's playing the "dumb" card.

Liz isn't sure if she can believe what Vanessa is telling them after what Becky told them. Liz -- PLEASE DON'T LISTEN TO VANESSA!!!!!!

Nominations
Liz nominates John and Becky.

I don't like this. I don't like this one bit. All I can hope for is that Johnny wins Veto and Vanessa goes up as a backdoor.

SPOILER ALERT: Liz won the Veto and the word on the feeds suggests that she is leaning toward NOT using the Veto. Even though none of them can trust Vanessa, they all think that she is a huge target for the other side of the house, and as long as she is still there, she will be targeted before them. They also would like to keep her until at least 4 people are in the Jury. The reason: they usually bring someone back in the game when there are 4 in Jury. They don't want any chance of Vanessa coming back in the game.
