As usual, the talking and bullshit went on  past my bedtime.  In what I believe started out as a strategic move,  Russ played pool with Jeff and hung out with Casey and "the other side"  last night.   I think Russell learned something when he actually ended up having fun with them.   The highlight of the evening came around 1:45AM when Russell went up to King Ronnie's room for a pow-wow.  He said they have to stop treating people as though they were invisible.  Russell said he realized that they are becoming what Jessie told them not to: "mob mentality."   He said if no one has the balls to say it, "I do."   "I'd rather lose than go out like a complete prick."  They were alone,  so there was no reason for Russ to not mean what he was saying. 

Apparently their behavior during yesterday's Have / Have Not contest was so bad the game dragged on because of poor sportsmanship and general high school style rudeness.  The producer,  Mike Miller, had to constantly inveigle them with, "Come on gang..." to try to get them in order.  

Russell told Ronnie, "From now on, if you're doing something that makes you feel sick in your stomach,  like you're going to throw-up,  then it's high school,  and you should stop doing it." 

After Ronnie and Russell's talk,  Ronnie went downstairs to try to mend the fences between him and Jeff and Laura.  He apologized to Jeff for nominating him,  and said that the other side had too many people that could come after him,  and that he was,  in essence, making a more popular nomination. [My words,  not his.]  Jeff:  "You got me you little bastard. I licked your asshole in the DR.  Just wait until you get out and see all the nice things I said about you."  [Oh Jeff,  did you have to say it that way!]  Ronnie:  "I understand,  hopefully you'll win the veto."  Jeff:  "If not you'll see on Thursday,  I don't hate you."

So maybe we'll see a happier house today,  with a little less high school,  but somehow, I doubt it.

9:05AM BBT:  BB:  "Good morning houseguests.  It's time to get up for the day."  That was followed by 15 minutes of FotH.  We saw Casey showering ,  Laura is in bath brushing teeth, Jordon there just sitting.  Laura doing daily stuff,  very little talk.  Casey's now in the re-cycled room.  Jeff just comes in. Russell still asleep in pool room.  Seems they are very out of it this morning.  Ronnie still asleep in HoH bed [He looks like he is 12 years old. -motormouthcj]  "The bedroom lights must remain on during the day." Then more FotH. 10:30AM BBT:  Still FotH.

10:40AM BBT:  They will be playing for PoV today.  When the feeds return, we learn that they've picked the players and host.  Of course Jeff, Laura and Ronnie play,  Natalie, Casey and Russ are playing,  and Lydia is hosting.

11:03AM BBT: Jordan, Laura and Russell are in the kitchen eating.  Laura said she doesn't mind the slop because it tastes like oatmeal to her and she eats oatmeal on a regular basis.  Jordan said she doesn't mind it either. Russell is making some eggs for breakfast.

Jordan and Laura are moving into the recycle room so they can be more comfortable.  Laura gets up to close the door so they can have some privacy.  Jordan:  "You better try to win the PoV."

Laura:  " I'm going to try!!  I'll never not try.  I think I can beat her" (don't know who she's talking about).

Jordan: "I feel if Jessica was here or Cowboy or Brian we would be on top right now."

Laura:  "Brian was really smart and would have been a good player. Jessica was real good at competitions and got along with everybody. She wasn't a drama queen."

They don't understand how Jessie managed to come back into the game because he's always so cruel and mean to everybody.

FotH
Laura, Jordan still in recycle room.  Laura said if Jordan gets HoH next week she needs to put both Russell and Jessie on the block, don't hesitate. She doesn't think either one of them are going to last very long in this game. If you need to worry about one of them it's Jessie.  Get him out!

Jordan has a feeling they have something up their sleeve. Laura tells her they definitely do. She heard them say this is all part of the "master plan". Laura tells her if she does win the PoV it's going to be bad for Ronnie and he knows it.

Jordan said she never thinks of all this stuff!

Ronnie has interrupted their pow-wow.  He asked Laura if she's ready.  She said yes.  He feels bad about what happened with the draw for players. Laura said she knew he didn't have any control over it.  Laura said she's not worried about it. She's going to play hard and doesn't matter who else plays. She feels everything happens for a reason. She knows one thing about this game which she'll share with those she's close to and maybe it's one of the reasons she was put in the game, to help somebody else.

Ronnie says Braden tried to kiss Lydia and she was complaining about it. They're all talking about how crazy the first week was in that house. Of course Ronnie brings up how much the blogosphere has gone wild watching all the action.

Laura says she may have dug herself a small grave but the dirt hasn't been piled on it yet. She is holding out hope until Julie makes the announcement who gets evicted. They now go off on talking about Julie and her baby bump.

Ronnie thinks this PoV is going to be a mental competition instead of a messy physical one.  He also said it's weird how 3/4 of the athlete team is playing in PoV again.

11:29AM BBT: Laura, Jordan and Ronnie still talking but it's general chit chat about previous seasons of BB and the players who had more memorable moments.

Feed switches to Lydia, Kevin whispering in the LR. Lydia says Jessie has carried her through this game (not sure who she is; Natalie?) They're trying to figure out who would put up certain players to get them out of the game. Kevin reminds her it's just a game so don't worry about it. (they keep talking about different players but can't hear who they mean). Apparently Lydia is worried about how to get Natalie out of the game since she's being protected by Jessie.

11:50AM BBT:  Ronnie asks Laura if she's swimsuit model and she says she doesn't know what he means by that.  She says she's not famous nor makes a lot of money, but does promotional stuff with bikinis and whatnot.  She says it doesn't pay that well, especially with the economy.   "Casey knows what I do, he's hosted some of my jobs."

12:00 BBT: Ronnie is called to DR twice and finally leaves as Jeff comes in.  He closes the door and Jeff lays down as the girls do their makeup. Laura mentions that Ronnie tried to pin it on her, saying BB said she was a swim suit model.  Laura says Ronnie said if he wins the veto,  he may use it and do the plan they've talked about. Jeff says Ronnie is full of shit and Laura agrees.  Jordan tells him to be quiet and play around and Jeff asks if Ronnie is in the room (which he isn't).

Laura says if she's evicted, she's going to whisper in Jeff and Jordan's ears as she leaves and point to Ronnie just to make him paranoid and Jeff agrees he'll do the same thing to cause Ronnie to freak out.

They're talking about the veto and Laura thinks she'll end up in a leotard. Jordan says how Ronnie is trying to cover his tracks, saying Ronnie said the plan back fired and how he's sorry Russell gets to play in veto.  Laura says she isn't scared.  Jordan says Jeff is safe and they need to save Laura and that's her team mate. They then start to talk about Jeff and Jordan's relationships.

Ronnie joins Jeff and Jordan and says the veto competition will start soon.  Jeff says he might be out of the house soon and Ronnie says "Nooooo."

12:35PM BBT:  Jeff curls up on Jordan's lap. She then starts plucking his eyebrows.  Casey comes in and makes fun of Jeff.  Jeff tells her not to shape his eyebrows,  just get the stray hairs. Casey says, "If you win the PoV you must give credit to your new aerodynamic eyebrows."

Laura whispers that Ronnie made a comment about BB3 and Marcellas and his veto move and that's something Ronnie read online.  Laura says he's full of shit and lying and how he's watched this show religiously and not to let him full you that he hasn't watched the show.

12:50PM BBT: Boring!  Everyone is just laying around waiting for the PoV competition to begin!

1:30PM BBT:  Casey said the kids start back to school on August 5th and the teachers had to start before that so it's really getting early to return to school.  He's been a teacher for 15 years.  He said in 15 years he's only making 15 more than when he started.  Russ talking about how politicians can raise their own salary and if people made a bigger fuss about it maybe they could change it.

Casey says with the budget concerns the districts are cutting from the top, making it easier to keep the teachers. Chima says the teachers are protesting in CA because they don't have enough teachers to cover certain subjects. It's harder to get people to become teachers.

Casey says when new teachers come in you still have to help them with tasks which takes away from your own time.  He's only 3000 dollars more a year than a new teacher coming into the system.  You never have enough resources as a teacher.  He signed up to his pay scale 15 years ago and they don't raise the salary, unfortunately.

2:00PM BBT:  FotH.  The PoV Competition may have begun!  There will be a lot of FotH while they play the PoV contest.  Please be kind to our message board while you wait for the results and do not refresh the the pages.  Remember,  results will also be posted on my Twitter Page, just go to the page and click "follow" and you too can grab Morty's Tweets!

6:00PM BBT:  We're Back!  Jeff won the PoV.  Jeff won it because Natalie asked Ronnie who will you put up when Jeff comes off?  Ronnie says "I told you and the vote will be for Laura to go home 9-0."  

There's another FotH,  When the feeds return Jessie's clan of faithful followers are in the red bedroom all a flutter.  Everyone is talking at once. Jeff's name has been dropped many times.    Ronnie says "To wield the power you have to have balls, and I have brass ones." Chima says, "You should wear shorts."  

Natalie comes back from DR with news that her pass is just for slop. Chima: "That's bullshit Big Brother!" They feel that it should be for a cold shower/bed pass as well.  "Big Brother didn't think this Have / Have-Not thing through very well."  I think it  was Natalie that said, "Have you seen him since he won?  He's actin' so full of himself."   There were quarters falling from something and someone was pummeled by them.  [Hey, give me a break, it's heard to transcribe women talking -Morty] 

8:28PM BBT:  Jordan asks Jeff what Ronnie said to him out there, Jeff said it was during the quarter game and "I was thinking I had about $100 bucks in mine and I look at his and and say you know you got about 200 dollars in there don't you, and he said no I don't I got about 100 and I said no I got about 100."  and Ronnie says, "You wanna bet?"  and Jeff said "Sure, if you have over 300 in quarters, then you admit you're the rat,   if not I will apologize to you and never say you're the rat again.  You tell me your not the rat then I'll throw this."  and Ronnie said "I'm not doing that,"   Jordan and Russell laugh,  Russell says that was not a physical challenge,  that was a challenge for brains and he couldn't win it...  and they all laugh.

6:30PM BBT:  Everyone but Laura is in the kitchen eating pizza and talking.  Once again they rave about how good the pizza is.  Natalie says that veto game was a trip, How do they come up with that stuff?"  Lydia says, "Can you imagine how long it's gonna take them to clean up out there?"  Someone said probably wont be done till midnight.  Kevin said he felt like it was sponsored or something,  "Like we were doing a commercial." and we get "We'll be right back..."

6:50PM BBT:  Ronnie says that he wishes he could tell about his wedding,  but he's sure his mother-in-law hasn't signed the release to talk about her.  His mother-in-law didn't like the pasty white weasel and didn't want her daughter marring him.  "I was afraid she was going to object at the wedding..."  FotH. 

Laura is in bed completely covered. She seems really bummed. Jordan joins her. She tells him that everyone is eating which bugs her because she just spent all that time doing dishes. Laura says she bummed because she gets another week of sleep and sleeping in here (the doom room). Jordan says she wants a shower but fears the cold water. Jordan says she wishes she could save her. Laura is resigned that she is going home.   "Are you really ready to go home?"  She asks.  Laura pauses and thinks for a moment, "Yes, I guess so." Jordan tells Laura that Ronnie came up to her and said he wanted to talk to her and Jeff later up in HoH.  Laura warns Jordan,  "Don't listen to anything Ronnie tells you."  Jordan tells her that she thinks she'll be following her out of the house next week.  "Oh, don't say that."  Laura tells her. 

Laura and Jordan wish they had gotten together as friends from the beginning.  Jordan says she will have no one left but Jeff and he'll be a loner.  Laura has decided to go ahead and start packing.  They complain about slop,  being hungry,  hard beds,  can't find anything in the room because of the lack of space,  and the room being cold at night.  Jordan leaves to take a shower with a promise to Laura to wake her when she gets up.

Meanwhile in the re-cycled room, Jessie, Natalie, and Chima are smack talking about Russell. Chima says Jeff was talking shit about her and Russell was laughing. Natalie "I think we need to backdoor his ass" Jessie "When?" Natalie "This week, I want him gone."  Ronnie comes in and says he had three quarters stuck in his butt crack after the competition.  Ronnie leaves.  [And we have to get that visual out of our heads.]

In red room,  Jessie asks Jeff what he knows, Jeff says I don't know a damn thing, "Ronnie asked me to come see him in the HoH but what the fuck for, so he can lie to me? He lied to me the whole time telling I was safe till right before then he put me up, I'm safe now so it's his decision now."  Jessie now saying that he and Natalie are willing to work with him and Jordan but that Jordan told Natalie to her face she was going to put her up if she won HoH which means she will put him up too.  Now they both tell Jeff that we have the votes to get rid of Laura no matter who he put up.  Jeff brings up that during the game Natalie came up to him and said I'll let you win if you don't put me up next week and I was think wait, she wins the bag and doesn't get put up I'll get back to you and they all laugh.

7:15PM BBT:  Lydia, Chima and Kevin are in the re-cycled room talking about who Ronnie should put up.  Michele is no longer a target (at least for the moment) so it's between Russell and Casey.  They feel it would be best to talk Ronnie into backdooring Russell this week.  Since we all know this can't happen,  there's no point in me transcribing the whole long conversation.  One interesting note was that Kevin said he senses that Ronnie wants to be part of the Jeff-Russell-Casey boys club.  The girls giggled over Kevin's suggestion that Russell and Ronnie might be getting chummy. 

Russell leaves and Jessie starts talking about his past BB experience.  He is complaining that his alliance didn't win anything until he was already gone, but he has no regrets.  [Yeah-right -Goldylucks  Ha! -Morty]

7:33PM BBT:  The LD is over, the HGs are free to go outside. 

7:38PM BBT: Jordan heads up to HoH to talk to Ronnie.  Ronnie tells her Laura is going home.  He tells her that he overhead Laura in the shower talking to herself saying if she lasts another week Ronnie is going home.  Jordan is trying to defend her saying Laura said it out of anger because she knows she is going home.  Ronnie doesn't understand why because he says he told her if the PoV was used Russell was going up.  Jordan tells him that Laura knows Russell has the votes so she knows she is going home.  This is followed by more competition talk.  Jeff's key to winning was grabbing a handful of coins, counting how much money was in one handful, and using that estimate to get the required amount.

7:45PM BBT:  Flashback Alert!  Ronnie Admits He's the Rat!  If you have the live feeds, you can Flashback to any point in the BB11 season. Watch Big Brother on SuperPass!    Ronnie asks Jeff (who has joined the HoH room conversation) to verify that he is definitely using the veto on himself.  Jeff jokes and says he can't tell him his plan, but then says of course,  "I will use it on myself."  Ronnie starts spilling secrets.  Ronnie tells them it may seem that Russell couldn't possibly be evicted if put up but clues them into the fact that Lydia, Kevin, Jessie, and Natalie have all told him that they want Russell out.

Jeff tells Ronnie "You have a second chance with me, don't you lie to me. I don't normally give second chances."  Both Jeff and Jordan tell Ronnie he is playing the way he is because of fear. "You are scared of repercussions, dude." "Backdooring Russell was your plan from the beginning, now you are afraid to do it."   Ronnie wants to know if there are votes to get Russell out and Jeff is saying "talk to your crew."  Jeff is showing his anger and Laura chastises him.  "The dude put me up and does he think there aren't any consequences."  "Don't even lie, I know you didn't vote for Braden. Don't you lie to me."  Ronnie admits to voting against Braden but he says it was for their benefit.  "Braden would have done what Braden needed to do.  Jeff:  "He was our team mate and you let them (Jessie's crew) strong arm you. They strong armed you and you fucked us."  Jeff accuses him of playing on their side because of fear.  Ronnie won't admit it.  He is trying to swing it around saying he put Jeff up because he had no chance of leaving.  Jeff asks "Why not Lydia, why not Kevin?  I'm not as stupid as you think."

Jeff says "You aren't trying to get a strong player out, you are trying to get rid of someone where no one will be mad at you for it." Ronnie is squirming saying if he had his way it would have been Michele and Laura on the block but Michele is on his team.  Jeff wants Ronnie to reveal who talked Ronnie into voting against Braden.  Ronnie doesn't answer the question.  Jeff says he isn't talking straight to Ronnie anymore because he is going to do what he wants.  He says Ronnie let go of Braden who would have been very loyal and now he has the other group. Jeff says again,  "You fucked me!"  [Ronnie's just filibustering,  it sounds like he's putting up Kevin against Laura.  If there's any truth to his talk of putting up Russell,  this is a momentous moment in BB history.   -Morty]  

Ronnie says he wants to talk to Laura to see if her comments about putting him up are true.  He also says he wants to talk to Jessie and Natalie about Russell.  Jordan reminds him that Russell will have the votes.  Ronnie says "Do some negotiating" Jeff says "Who?" (As in: "Not me,  but you!) and Ronnie says he is willing to negotiate to get Russell out.  [My take on it:  He knows fear controlled Ronnie's decision on nominations and he is using fear to sway him now.  -Goldylucks]

7:15PM BBT:  Lydia enters the HoH says to Ronnie,  with Jeff and Jordan in HoH,  that she wants Russell gone. 
Ronnie: "I will do this."
Jeff: "Don't look at me."
Jordan: "Me either everyone is blaming me for everything already."
Jordan goes to take a shower.  Ronnie tries to get amnesty from everyone for putting up Russell and Lydia says,  "No, Ronnie, you have to get your hands dirty, everyone else already has."  Jeff starts to leave, and says,  "You guys take care of your business." and Ronnie replies,  "Hey,  this is your business too."  Lydia:  "If your little girlfriend goes up--  it won't be your business?"  Jeff:  "Wait, wait, You're thinking of putting up Jordan."  Ron: "Hypothetically..."

Jeff says he wants to talk a bit later.  He wants to enjoy the moment of being safe.  He tells Ronnie, "Come on outside and bring your bubbles."  Chima enters and joins in,  she agrees to backdoor Russell. 

Lydia and Chima are taking over the conversation now.  They want to twist this around to Laura and make her grovel and have her believe she is in their debt for doing this favor for her.

9:00PM BBT:  I don't know what's happening.  It really sounds like Ronnie is going to backdoor Russell,  and at this point he has the whole house on board to vote out Russell.  The only person being kept in the dark is Casey,  they feel he might spill the beans to Russell,  but they're pretty sure Casey will vote out Russell,  they just don't trust him to keep a secret. 

9:15PM BBT:  Jordan is being instructed not to tell Laura.  They want to wait until the last minute that she's safe,  so they can try and get some guarantees from her.  Ronnie assures Jordan that she's safe and it's not a trick to put her on the block at the last minute.

Jordan and Jeff talk to Russell.   Jordan tells them that she think she's going up on the block  (this was part of Ronnie's plan,  to have Jordan lie to Russell).

Jeff joins them and says that he called Ronnie out. Jeff says he called him a liar to his face.   Jordan adds that Ronnie admitted that he was the one that voted against Braden.  Russell acts pissed.  [And I think it's an act,  because at this point Russell still thinks Ronnie's loyal.] 

9:45PM BBT:  Jeff is laying in the hammock,  and Jordan goes over to him and tells Jeff that she talked to Ronnie and he's putting her on the block with Laura. [Jordan's lying,  she promised Ronnie she wouldn't tell Jeff and that Jeff won't tell Russell he's going on the block in Jeff's place.  Following it all?]   Jeff says she is a bad liar and that she's laughing.  She says she's telling the truth and he should go talk to Ronnie about it.  Jordan leaves,  with Jeff fuming mad and tells Ronnie how mad Jeff is,  and that he'll be coming to talk to him.  Ronnie's OK with dealing with Jeff,  he feels it worth the charade to make certain that Russ doesn't find out.

10:20PM BBT:  Ronnie tells Lydia that the DR people asked,  "Ronnie, what are you really going to do?"  He giggle like a little girl and BB reprimands him with a, "Ronnie, houseguests are not permitted to discuss their diary room sessions with other houseguests."  Jeff goes  up to talk to Ronnie about his plan to put up Jordan on the block.  Ronnie decides to let Jeff in on the real plan [At least what we think the plan is.]  And that Jordan is safe,  Russell's being evicted. 

11:00PM BBT:  Ronnie lets Natalie in on the plan.  Ronnie tells Jessie,  and Jessie doesn't like it, one bit.  "This would be a mistake. Just because a plan sounds good,  doesn't mean it is.  This just isn't the week to vote out Russ."  Natalie, Chima, and Lydia  tell Jessie that Russell's been lying, and he's made deals with everyone.  Chima:  "Frankly I trust Laura more than Russell."  Jessie: "OK, so Laura cried.  Laura is the Keesha of this season. Keesha cried and got past,  cried and got past.  I don't want to see that again." 

Jessie says he'll vote with the crowd. 

11:15PM BBT: The Whole Plan Comes Crumbling Down.  Natalie says you can talk to Russell and make a deal,  "You can't even talk to Laura. He's not going to put you up. [referring to Ronnie]"  Not Lydia says, "So I guess this week Laura goes out."  [Son of a bitch!  They made me type all this for nothing!  -Morty]  The girls keep up with the angle that Russ is a loose cannon and they're afraid  he may go off on them  Jessie calms them down and says that Russ isn't the monster they think he is,  "All you have to do is reason with him and he backs down immediately, 'Oh, I see never mind.'  and he's back to normal."

Ronnie says that they will stop playing as teams when there are ten people left in the house.  Despite the schedule at the top of the page that says the PoV meeting is Sunday,  Ronnie says it will be on Monday. 

11:30PM BBT:  Jessie says when he gets to be HoH he'll put up Russell,  and he'll win the PoV so Russell stays up.  Ronnie falls like a house of cards and goes for Jessie's odd logic [I say that because if Jessie wants Russ out, why not do it now?]   Now we are back to square one,  "Who shall we put up."  They consider using Casey as a pawn,  back to sending Laura home.  The girls are bitching that Ronnie should put up Jordan.  Ronnie says he can't too many people will be after him.  Ronnie says he wants to make the best decision and doesn't want to choose right. He doesn't want Jessie to feel like they're going against him.  Natalie says she sees both sides and she can't stand Russell right now. Jessie tells her that will change day to day.

11:50PM BBT:  Chima "keeping Russell in the house is a mistake" and Kevin "we've shown our hand" and Russell may find out. Chima "we all just deny it?" and say they will "blame Laura"..

Chima:  "Casey's going up as a pawn but doesn't know he's a pawn."

Natalie say he'll be grateful. and next week when, "I'm HoH I'm putting up Michele and Jordan."  Kevin says:  "We opened a can of worms with Russell." and Russell will tell.  Natalie wants to bring Jordan up to the HoH and tell them the switch.  Jessie says "No she doesn't talk game.". Kevin:  "We are underestimating her influence."  Chima:  "If Ronnie and her go up,  then they don't have the numbers."

Ronnie is worried about Russell,  and so is Chima.  Jessie: "I see Laura winning HoH me going up and home."  [Jessie making it all about him.]  Jessie says he won't go against it if they support it.  Kevin says, "I think she'll {Laura} will be grateful if she's stays."  .

12:10AM BBT: Jeff and Jordan tare talking in the hammock.  Jeff says:  "I don't know anything." (saying he hadn't talk to Ronnie after he won PoV) Jeff says he already had their word they didn't want Jeff out. and Jordan says, "No because Natalie seemed she didn't want him to win." 

12:12AM BBT: Jeff says they cannot tell Laura even Jordan thinks she thinks they're "being sketchy" and Jeff says "It's only one day,  that's why I didn't tell Casey,  because I didn't want him to act differently."  Jeff doesn't know that it may have flipped to Casey going up.

Jeff says Russell's is getting wise and will turn on them.  Jordan says "For a fact."  Ronnie:  "I wonder if I can get him to yell at me and explode?" Jordan says "He called you a fat somethin'"  Ronnie presses her what Russell said.

12:27AM BBT:   "Ronnie: "I'm doing what's best for me "I'm putting him up about Russell

12:28AM BBT: "He called me a fat fucking faggot!" Ronnie steams in the green room and says he's going to put him up.  Natalie wonders if Jordan is telling the truth.  Ronnie says he had to drag it out of her. Jessie tries to bring Casey being a threat.

12:30AM BBT:  The girls wonder why Russell would give Ronnie the ammunition. Chima says,  "I don't think they're lying."  Lydia wants a round table with Russell, Ronnie doesn't .  Now Lydia wants doesn't want Russell up and thinks Jessie and Natalie need to go talk to Russell.  ..

12:32AM BBT:   Ronnie and Chima say Jessie is "selfish" and now for Jessie it's "personal."  With Laura, Chima says "We need to think about us."  Now Ronnie says he wants to confront him and Chima says, "You realize it will turn into a big fucking war."  They laugh at Russell being "overconfident" and "talking shit about the HoH."  They say this move was as bad as BB3 Marcellas.

12:34AM BBT:  Ronnie heads back outside.  Jordan and Jeff are on the hammock and upset that they can never make a decision and stick with it.  Jordan says maybe it will "stir up some drama."  Jeff: "I need to see Jessie and see where he's at."  Jordan says he was "sketchy" about Jeff winning.

Jordan:  "I wanna win." Jeff: "I want to get through this week." Jordan wants to tell Laura and Jeff trying to drive it into her head not to say anything.

Laura comes over and Jordan says Jeff's upset because Ronnie wants to talk strategy and Jordan says "I'm trying to stir up some drama so they put up Russell."  Laura doesn't think the plan will work. 

12:41AM BBT:  It seems that Russell said "Fat Fuck" and not "Fat Faggot," but Jordan only said to Ronnie "fat something."  Laura expresses her disdain for Jessie and they express their disgust of a Jessie win.

Laura says Russell would have our back and come to our side, "even though I'm positive I'm going home." She's upset about spending the last week on slop sleeping in the doom room and may be worth the penalty vote to eat.

12:44AM BBT:  Jordan goes over the plan and said to Ronnie that Laura would do what he wants if she's HoH but Jordan says if she wins she can do anything she wants.  Laura "I will be extremely shocked if he put up Russell."

12:46AM  BBT:  Michele joins Jordan and say she's not afraid to get Jessie out since she tried to get "my own teammate."   .Michele says she heard them talk,  "they want to nominate Russell"  Laura says they may have been talking loud intentionally for her to hear.  They warn Michele that Ronnie is talking shit and she says she needs to talk to him when she gets the chance.   Michele says she needs to talk to him and figure where they stand. Michele says his flaw is underestimating her. They tell Michele that Ronnie admitted to the vote that evicted Braden.  Laura asks excuse Ronnie gave for doing it,  and Jeff says he didn't know, and didn't ask because he didn't want Ronnie, "blowing smoke up my ass."

Michele:  He's a liar,  he's not a teacher." Michele says "He's watched all BB seasons and they shouldn't have brought him in..."

1:00AM BBT: Inside Ronnie and Lydia are in the kitchen talking about the movie "Julie & Julia" . They talk while Jessie complains about "someone stealing my fucking toothpaste."  Natalie offers her "Colgate" and Jessie wonders if it's his,  and says she always leaves her toothpaste in her room.  "Who the fuck steals toothpaste?"

1:04AM BBT: More people head outside to blow bubbles [Ah just like Michael Jackson]  Natalie talks about what's missing from the BY.  Jessie and Lydia talk outside about unicorns. 

1:08AM BBT:  Jeff and Jessie are playing pool talking in silly accents.  Michele and Ronnie have their feet in the hot tub and asks if she can sleep on the sofa in his room because she can't sleep at all otherwise, "I'll be napping all day." I guess that's when she'll have her talk..

No game talking just people having fun.

1:46AM BBT:  Ronnie is back to his plan of putting up Russell  Lydia is worried about Laura  and Kevin says, " Laura will go for the jugular and go for Jessie and Natalie."  They talk about bringing Laura in and threatening her.  Kevin says she didn't want to talk to anyone until the veto ceremony is over.  Lydia says it's arrogance while Chima says, "No, she knows she's going home."

1:53AM BBT: Ronnie "I need to do what's best for me."

2:15AM BBT:  Everyone is saying goodnight,  I hope they mean it,  because I need some sleep.

2:20AM BBT:  They have flipped back to backdorring Russell so we still have the DR intervention and Russell talking to them so expect it to go back and forth several more times.  They are just repeating themselves with the same scenarios...  There was a twist to the pow-wow Ronnie had with Natalie and Chima in the HoH room, Ronnie had Lydia, Kevin, and Laura hiding in the bathroom listening.

After Natalie and Chima left,  Laura:  "This place is crazy." Lydia and Ronnie and Kevin talk to Laura and when they asked who she would put up, Laura gave the golden answer "Michele and someone else."  Ronnie was happy with the answer and Laura was calm and agreed to put up "maybe Casey?"  Lydia tells Laura that if she wins HoH, she OK with her putting Natalie on the block.  Kevin: "I ultimately want Natalie and Jessie broken up."   Meanwhile,  Natalie is on the patio with Jessie,  and Jessie is re-enforcing the idea of keeping Russell. 

2:45AM BBT: The BS continues...
