9:50AM BBT:  Jessie goes up to the HoH room. to tell Russell they're still cool..  They put the blame for everything that went down last night on Michele.  Their mutual target for next week is Michele.  They both feel that Jeff has their back,  for the time being.  Russell was disappointed that Jessie didn't back him up last night (Jessie stayed in bed in the doom room during all the excitement).  Russell understands the Jessie didn't want to get involved after what happened in season 10.   Jessie said that Chima admitted that she didn't think Braden was a racists, that she just used it as an opportunity to have a voice.  Jessie sums it up,  'It's Kevin, Lydia, and Chima that want you out.'  [Somehow,  Jessie's going to spin this as a good time to evict Lydia,  and keep Ronnie. -Morty] 

10:00AM BBT:  Russell and Jessie try to psychoanalyze Chima.  They say that after what she was through [She was raped by a serial killer.]  that she dislikes men,  needs to feel that she's always in control of everything,  afraid of nothing, and she wants to parlay her role on Big Brother into celebrity status.

10:25AM BBT:  Jessie's still shoveling it in the HoH room,  and Russell seems to be buying everything Jessie says.  Jessie turns the subject to Lydia,  and how she's all buddy-buddy with Michele.  Jessie is working overtime to change the vote to get Lydia out instead of Ronnie.  He says that once Ronnie is gone they (the non believers) will see that it was all Michele and they got rid of Ronnie who would have been their ally.  He has also spewed on about Chima really trying to get it so the guys are against the girls and vice versa.

Jessie was called to change his batteries and did that then went to the green room and is sleeping by Natalie.  Michele is up now and in the bathroom but everyone else seems to be sleeping again.

11:50AM BBT:  Russell and Michele mends fences.  While everyone else sleeps,  Russell and Michele get together on the patio to talk about last night.  Russ starts with the question that keeps coming up, "Was Michele in the green room with Natalie and Jessie?"   Michele said she wasn't,  but when Russ went to Natalie to confirm that she wasn't there,  Natalie lied to make Michele look like the trouble maker.  Michele once again tells Russell the truth.  Michele: "I don't understand it.  Jessie brought up something that didn't happen and I'm just very confused."   Next,  Russell says that Michele told Russ that Chima was trying to backdoor him,  and Michele claims she said that IF, Chima wanted to get him out,  she'd PROBABLY backdoor him.  Michele says he was paranoid and didn't hear her correctly.  Russ seems to concede that that could have been the case.  Michele:  "First thing after the fight, Natalie was trying to get my vote to keep Ronnie in."  This remark seems to over over his shaved head.

Noon:  Russell apologizes for throwing Michele under the bus and telling everyone she has a PhD.  Michele says it's OK,  and she'll still have his back next week.  They both think that their alliance with Jeff and Jordan is still plausible.  [A few weeks ago,  Michele diagnosed Lydia as being bipolar.  I really think she should have a good look at Russell.  I'm not saying this as one of my usual snide remarks.  He's making his fans bipolar too.  One day he's reading a letter from home,  everyone loves him.  One minute he's yelling at Jeff,  his fans turn on him,  he takes Ronnie food,  his fans don't know what to make of him.  As Russell's moods swing,  so does his fan base.  -Morty

12:16PM BBT:  Russell and Michele are still talking about what went down between him and Chima yesterday.   Russell thought is was interesting how Chima kept trying to get him to physically lash out at her,  but that he was in control since he has sisters and is able to yell and not go there.   However,  the  first chance he gets he's nominating Chima.   After last night everyone is afraid of her wrath except him.   He also mentioned how Chima admitted to lying about believing Braden being a racists etc and how she's willing to do anything and say anything as long it's to her advantage.   Russell thinks that's messed up.

Talk about jury house and how Chima, Lydia and Kevin will vote personally and how he (Russell) has no chance of getting their votes.  Back to rehashing last night and the craziness.

Michele tells Russell that although some think she's playing for herself it's not true. That she's trying to play for her friends.   Russell doesn't think Natalie is going to win anything, not too bright, not physically tough.   Warns her that she's going to get yelled at for hanging out with him.   She doesn't care. Russell gives her props for not being afraid to stand up to Chima.
 

12:30PM BBT:  All is quiet in the BB house.  Michele and Russell seem to be the only one's awake.  Michele is making lunch,  Russ is in the pool. 

1:35PM BBT:  Ronnie and Lydia are in the kitchen making lunch. After lunch,  Lydia goes into back yard talks to Jordan for a moment, then Jordan goes into house

1:46PM BBT: Jordan is outside shaving her legs again and Lydia is preparing to lay out in the sun.  Not much talking.  All cameras are on Jordan shaving.  Riveting.

2:00PM BBT: Jeff and Jordan are in the kitchen,  Jordan looking in the fridge. . "Jordan, what would go good with chicken?"  Jeff, make a salad.  Jordan, mac and cheese.  Jeff,  "Not a good choice. What about the cottage cheese? Jordan, would that be good with chicken?"

A few minutes later...  Jeff:  "You're already making me sick and I've been up like five minutes." Jordan:  "I'm gonna stab you with a fork."

Jeff doesn't want to go outside, not in the mood for talking to Russell yet today.  Jordan says she's laying out you can stay inside.  Jeff says he doesn't trust Michele.

Michele and Russell join them in the kitchen. talk goes to how late everyone slept today.

3:24PM BBT:  Lydia,  Chima,  Kevin and Jeff are in the LR  talking about having babies.  Jeff is getting an education about childbirth.  Michele and Jordan have been in the pool talking about what happened last night but there is too much background noise to hear the conversation.  I haven't seen Natalie or Jessie.

4:25PM BBT:  Jordan asks Jeff and Michele what they should do about Kevin.   Jordan's asking if they should try to bring him into their alliance.  Jeff warns her it's risky, because Kevin's from "The other side." 

4:30PM BBT:  Jessie and Russell are chatting at the dining room table.  On the patio,   Chima is re-telling the story of last night's events,  and how Russell didn't want Michele to come up to the HoH because Michele's version of things would confirm that Russ is a liar (as Chima believes).   Natalie has made it quite clear that if she wins HoH she is targeting Michele.   Natalie: "I hate that bitch."   Chima says,  "Than you better hope I'm not the wizard because I will use it and put his ass (Russell) up."   Chima sees Russell and Jessie talking in the dining room and it angers her.   Chima gives Natalie a hard time for talking to Russell too.

Lydia comes out and jumps on the bandwagon.   Natalie:  "This just pisses me off.  I'm not even going to pretend it doesn't."   Natalie is reminding them that Ronnie was the plague last week and now it's OK to talk to him but not Russell.   Chima makes it clear that anyone associated with Russell is "on his side".   Chima: "Natalie and Jessie are still talking to Russell because he may win HoH again.  He's a strong player."  "Why keep the peace with someone that doesn't deserve it."  Natalie keeps comparing Russell to Ronnie but Lydia and Chima keep arguing that Russell is not worth talking to and anyone that does must be aligned with him.  Chima and Lydia both tell her that Ronnie is not nearly as bad as Russell is (and Ronnie has been sitting here all along).   Natalie isn't caving. She makes it clear that is unfair of them to judge her for speaking to Russell when he has done nothing to her. (Basically Chima hates Russell now and anyone that talks to him in any way shape or form has joined the dark side. There is no middle ground with Chima  - Goldylucks)    Chima wants to know why Jessie is still talking to Russell.  Then Chima asks Natalie:    "Well, why are you still talking to him?"

Lydia to Natalie:  "You told Michele that she supports a racist, bigot,  so that makes her that, right?  You obviously support a misogynist, he's disrespected females,  all the girls in the house. You're saying one thing and doing another."

Natalie says she knows Russell is a liar,  but what's she to to do,  "Pretend like he's not here.  I talk to everybody and you're trying to get me to be part of a mob mentality."

4:40PM BBT:  Chima and Lydia are still leading the conversation on the patio.  Chima says Russell is far worse than Ronnie and that Natalie cannot defend herself for talking to Russell by saying it's like Ronnie.   Chima thinks Natalie and Jessie are still in an alliance with Russell.  Chima thinks Jessie hiding out in the doom room last night during fight was bullshit.   Natalie says she does not agree with their mob mentality.  The argument had peaks and valleys where it looked like it was going to become another brawl,  but the calmed down and it went back to boring. 

5:00PM BBT: The argument on the BY couches is over and it gets eerily quiet for a moment.  They start wondering how they are being edited and Ronnie plays the sympathy card... "Don't worry, I'll find out Thursday."  This is followed by more Russell bashing by Chima and Lydia. Chima continues to laugh at herself after the insults.

For spreading information, nothing beats the speed of Natalie.  She's faster than DSL, faster than cable,  even faster than FIOS,  So give up your old internet provider,  and get Natalie.

5:10PM BBT:  Natalie runs to Jessie to report that Chima's against him for associating with Russell.  "She's probably out there right now talkin' that bullshit!"   Jessie walks away to go lay back down in the bathroom and Natalie follows to continue the conversation.  Natalie "They are talking shit about you to my face."  Jessie scolds her for shredding her fingernails when she gets upset.  Natalie "Why not, I have three people coming after me for sure,  Lydia, Kevin, and Michele."   Natalie tells Jessie that he needs to stop talking to Lydia. "I fucking heard her talking shit about you. If she puts us up she puts us up but don't be played like a fool while she talks shit about you in front of my face."

Meanwhile Jeff is now sitting with the bitter BY crew so the conversation has turned to other reality shows such as Survivor and Amazing Race.

5:25PM BBT:  Natalie wants them to talk to Russell about it.  Jessie doesn't understand her urgency but she tells him that when she gets heated,  she wants to talk right away.  Neither one of them want to be seen going upstairs to get him.  They go to the kitchen and motion to the HoH room (maybe hoping he is watching the spy screen). They head back to the bathroom and are attempting to figure out how to get Jessie back in Russell's good graces. He plans on explaining to him that by the time he came out of the DR the fight was too far gone and there was no reason for him to interfere.  There was no game talk and nothing he could do to help.  They are also planning on reminding Chima that they have been with her the whole time.  Jessie says this all boils down to one big pity party. Russell, Jeff, and Kevin are all complaining about who has things worse.  Jeff complains he's been losing since week 1.  Kevin thinks he has it bad because he can't win anything.  Russell complains that he has some disease to the other HGs now. (This coming from Jessie of all people -Goldylucks)

Natalie and Jessie are still planning on fighting for Ronnie but they realize they don't have the votes.

Meanwhile Chima, Ronnie, and Lydia are now alone on the BY couches again so the bashfest continues.

7:05PM BBT:   Chima, Jessie and Natalie are talking in the green room.  They're rehashing last nights events. Chima's asking Jessie why Jessie wasn't present during the fight last night.  She says him going into the Have-Not room last night,  claiming of a stomach ache,  was a cop-out.   Jessie denies this but Chima keeps on him, saying if there was fighting from both her and Russell,  Jessie should have been out there with them.

Natalie speaks up and says she's voting to keep Ronnie regardless.  Chima says Ronnie asked her to vote for him, too,  and she's not sure,  since she doesn't care about pleasing Russell anymore.  Chima says Ronnie and Russell are different, as Ronnie lied about game and Russell lied about personal stuff.

Natalie saying she wanted Jeff to win over Russell in the HoH competition,  because she's never trusted Russell. Natalie is now campaigning for Ronnie to stay, telling Chima Ronnie will pick her over Russell and if it takes Ronnie to not say another word to Russell,  he won't. Natalie says they're four strong and keeping Ronnie no matter whether Jessie or Chima vote to keep him.  Jessie and Natalie tells Chima that they're still (lying) to Russell,  saying they're voting Ronnie out.

Now talk about Michele.  Jessie says that Michele tries to win people over by talking to them and then cooking for them.

Jessie tries to bargain with Chima,  saying he won't talk to Russell if that will make things better.  Chima says she doesn't want anyone to talk to Russell.  Natalie says Jordan and Jeff are talking to Russell.  Chima says Russell is telling Natalie and Jessie to go after Jordan and Jeff and Jordan and Jeff will to go after Natalie and Jessie.   Natalie says she's putting up Michele and Lydia.  Chima says Russell is the one lying.  She states she wants Lydia here, because she'll go after Russell, too.

Natalie says she went into the DR last night to ask if she could hit (missed name) with a pillow and DR said no. They said pouring water on someone doesn't hurt the person, but a pillow can.  Natalie was mad she couldn't hit (this person) with a pillow.

Chima still talking about Russell.

7:20PM BBT:  Outside, Lydia and Kevin are playing pool.  Kevin asks her how confident she feels in her staying this week and Lydia says 60%. Kevin feels 90% she's staying,  unless Ronnie has the wizard power.  Lydia tells Kevin Ronnie told her,  while in front of Chima,  that if he can evict someone right away,  it'd be Kevin.  Kevin doesn't doubt that.

Michele and Jeff are on the outside couches. She is all smiles. 

Inside, Chima still talking about Russell said to her last night.

Kevin wins the game of pool. Michele joins them as they all lay on the large lounge chair. Michele hopes tonight will be quiet and Lydia says if there's alcohol, they're stealing it and not letting Russell have any.  Now they talk about Natalie.  Lydia says Natalie is having a meeting with Chima and Jessie. They joke how they weren't invited.

Jessie has come to the conclusion that everything that happened last night was because of Michelle. He says that she has been collecting all this information week after week and is setting up Russell to take the fall next week. Jessie is telling Chima that it is more likely that it was Michelle telling the lies and that Russell was right. He goes back to the Michelle in the green room story (that we know is completely false) and tells her Russell was telling the truth. Jessie tells her that Russell just wanted to address it last night.

Lydia says she overheard Russell and Jessie whispering earlier, and she heard Russell say Lydia, Michele and Chima's names. Lydia doesn't understand why Jessie is talking to Russell.  Chima: "I thought we all had to take a test to get in here. I'm sure he had so many red flags it was like the Indy 500. Crazy, psycho, sociopath, schizophrenic."

Lydia starts talking about people hanging out with Russell are supporting his behavior and hatred to women.   Inside, Natalie is staying the SAME exact thing, how people are saying if she hangs with certain people, she's labeled as supporting them.

7:35PM BBT: Jeff comes over with a cup and shows Lydia and Kevin a spider inside.  He laughs, saying he was trying to scare Kevin and then takes the cup and spider away. Michele questions Lydia,  as she's always with Jessie.   Lydia says she flirts with Jessie,  but as far as game is concerned, she doesn't want to be aligned with him, because he'd always pick Natalie over her,  and Kevin chimes in that Jessie has said this.   Lydia also tells Michele that Jessie gets mad at her because she won't tell Jessie what she talks about to Michele or Kevin.

Lydia says something about if she stays this week and Michele reassures her that Lydia is staying this week

7:40PM BBT: Jessie continues by referring to occasions where Michele joined into their conversations and he calls her a vixen.  She's paranoid.  Even her sleep patterns,  waking up at 4 or 5:00 in the morning and screaming in her sleep,  shows her paranoia.  This leads to Lydia bashing.  Lydia refuses to compete to win. If she wins she will have to prove everything she has been saying.  Winning is not in her best interest.  Jessie basically swears that he will always have Chima's back.  They may have different ideas on who they want out but that they will always do what the other wants.  The three (with Ronnie sitting on the sidelines) are basically re-confirming their alliance.

8:00PM BBT:  Michele and Lydia and Kevin are outside and still talking about the wizard power.  Kevin and Jeff are outside as well.  They are anticipating that it is likely one of them will hold the power. Michele mentions that if that is the case it will be smarter for that person to NOT try to win to HoH because this gives someone else on their side a chance of guaranteed safety.  Jeff asks Lydia who she wants out in the HoH competition and she wants Jessie and Natalie out first.   They joke about the other side messing with majority rules HoH. but Jeff doesn't believe Lydia and Kevin.  

8:05PM BBT:  Ronnie has realized that the "wizard power" has not been awarded yet.  He tells Chima, Natalie, and Jessie that while in DR they asked him how he felt he stood with the viewer's choice tally.  This leads to a plot to try to save Ronnie.  They are discussing mentioning to others in the house that they are considering voting to keep Ronnie just to tick off Russell. T hey are hoping that someone may bite.  Jessie repeats that Lydia and Kevin are never going to play to win and will never be an asset to them.

8:20PM BBT:  Michele and Jeff are alone in the BY now.  They both no longer trust Russell is on their side.  Jeff says that Russell is still playing both sides.  Michele tells him that Russell told her it may be good to say the green room story (made up by Jessie/Natalie) was true.  Michele says it was a ridiculous idea because it makes her look like a liar.

Michele calls a Jessie a "prick."   "Him and Natalie, sitting on their king and queen throne,  trying to run this entire house,"   She says they need to go.

She says if they get HoH "One of them should be going home."  Michele says "You'd have to put Russell up if you nominated Jessie and Natalie and one of them wins PoV."   ..

Michele talks about his paranoia and people telling them lies.  She accuses Russell of listening to Natalie and Jessie and their lies.

10:27PM BBT: Michele is still talking about Jessie and Natalie saying, "They are worse in the house than Russell" she tells Kevin.

Michele tells Kevin that Ronnie and Jessie and Natalie are starting lies about everyone,  saying they condone someone's horrible behavior and Natalie's indifference to it because she says it is not happening to her.  Michele says when their threat didn't work she told them,  "This doesn't  make sense to keep Ronnie,"  and they created the lie..

Kevin talking about Jessie running away from the fight.  Michele says his excuse was "bullshit"

[They are whispering and Michele is hard to understand]

Everybody uses the bathroom but not everybody cleans it..."   "Nobody cleans the bathroom but me Lydia and Michele."

2:20AM BBT:  The feeds return.  Ronnie is blathering on about a cloister.  He explained it's "like a nunnery".  He was out with some friends, the place was supposed to be haunted, he turned and saw something and they hit the gas and took off.   Ronnie tells a story about how he saw what he thought was a dead kid.. The story spooks Michele and Jordan.  Jeff says that freaky kittle kids scare him more than burglars because he can beat up a burglar but cant beat up a little kid.

Kevin and Lydia are in the BY talking about Jessie and last season. in the BY talking about Jessie and last season.

2:40AM BBT: Ronnie's still telling ghost stories and Jordan says to him,  "Ronnie these better not be lies!" Jeff says,  "Yeah the lies end here."  They're just joking with him and everyone laughed.  Ronnie said he never lied about personal stuff,  just game stuff, and  the lies stopped awhile ago.

2:50AM BBT: The subject veers off to UFOs.  They feel there's "something out there"  but things like crop circles are just BS.  Jessie thinks that we've reversed engineered alien technology,  and that's how we've been able to advance so fast in technology.  [So we discovered a space ship and used it's parts to build an Ipod?] 

2:54AM BBT: The group brings up one of Jessie's many sore spots,  Renny from last season.  Everyone liked her, but Jessie.  He immediately gets  defensive and says how she would have chewed Natalie up.  He says it's not fun being around Renny when she's been off her meds for a week .

3:00AM BBT:  Ronnie continues with scary stories.  Jordan says Michael Myers from Halloween scares her.

3:10AM BBT:  Michele takes her turn at telling a ghost story. 

4:28AM BBT:  Ronnie, Jeff and Jordan in bed in pool room.  Jeff and Jordan in the big bed and Ronnie's still telling scary stories.  Ronnie keeps talking and talking.

Lydia and Kevin are in the BY boxing. Earlier, Lydia was in the BY jumping rope.

Before going to bed, Ronnie told Jessie he was going to try and get Jordan to give him a sympathy vote and feels she might go for it because she really doesn't hate him, so he is trying to be very endearing.  [This guy's going to end up staying, I just know it!  -Morty]

4:42AM BBT: Ronnie telling Jeff and Jordan how he wishes he had got rid of Russell. How he should not have lied to Braden about voting for him to stay. (He's shoveling it fast.).

4:50AM BBT:  Ronnie promising Jeff and Jordan their safety should he by some miracle not get booted.  Ronnie says, Jessie will make one of the final two.  Now he is saying Russell is a liar and his nominations speech was bogus. [This dude won't shut up!  -Joyami]  Ronnie goes on to say that he feels Jeff has a shot at final two.  He tells Jordan,  he doubts she will make it that far.  Jordan to Ronnie:  "Even though you have said some crazy things, I guess you're off my shit-list."  The three of them laugh. 

5:30AM BBT:  Ronnie is still doing his persuasive speaking with Jeff and Jordan trying his last ditch effort to get them to have him stay.  They are firing off questions and he is answering him but leaving out anything about his allegiance to Jessie. Ronnie is just telling them he wanted to come clean of everything. Jordan tells him he is handling leaving very well.  They're laughing and talking like old friends.

Getting a lot of FotH during this discussion.

Lydia and Kevin are still up and still chatting away in the bathroom. 

6:00AM BBT:   Ronnie leaves to check storage room.  Jordan says to Jeff:  "I don't believe a word he says,  he is trying to get our vote." Jeff agrees.   Ronnie's marathon talk with Jeff and Jordan has come to an end.  He was talking about all the animal names he's been called, i.e. Rat, Snake etc.  Apparently Jeff and Jordan would really like him to "cork it" as Jordan got up and left for the bathroom.  Ronnie (hard to hear) said something to Jeff whereas Jeff muttered a reply and buried his head in the pillow.  Ronnie finally settled down and went to sleep.

6:50AM BBT:  Jordan in kitchen fixing something to eat.  In the Have-not room sleeping on Cam3, red room sleeping on Cam4. Cams 1 and 2 on Jordan .

7:25AM BBT:  Jordan has managed to make herself quite a breakfast,  plus she straightened up the kitchen.  She is still the only one awake and feeds have remained same. Kevin though is really restless.

At 7:36AM BBT,  our live feed updater, SueZqueZ, reported that Ronnie's ass was hanging out of the bed and it appeared he was wearing thong underwear.  I know that's a definite TMI.  But you gotta trust someone who goes by the name, SueZqueZ,  still I'd like to get confirmation on this if I can.

7:45AM BBT:  Jordan is outside exercising.
