And the live feeds are back!!! On last night's Battle Back show we learned that Victor was returning to the house. It sounds like he's assimilating back in nicely. He made a bet with Nicole where if she could memorize the details on his bracelet that he'd be her slave today. She won and now wants him to make breakfast for her today. Victor's annoying Corey by bringing up a girl Corey told Victor about that he met just before coming on the show. He asked Corey about this while Nicole was in the room. This made for a bit of an awkward situation for Corey and he had to explain to Nicole about Shane. (Is it just me or is it weird that every "girl" Corey dates has a guy's name? Nic, Shane, there's something of a pattern developing here.) Is Victor trying to pry Nicole away from Corey? (It's not working as they're lying in bed kissing now while Victor and Paul keep meandering into and out of the Tokyo bedroom.) Victor's been cooking and cleaning for the house assuming Bridgette's role which will likely tick off Bridgette pretty quickly.
We learned that James won HOH in a five and a half hour endurance comp that has left everyone in the house with sore arms and shoulders. Apparently James and Davonne were the final two on the comp. Davonne must know she's in trouble to outlast everyone but James on an endurance comp. Those are not Davonne's specialty. Bridgette apparently finished third. The first three off, to no one's surprise were reportedly Zakiyah, Nicole and Michelle, who were all pretty much safe no matter who won. Being the first three off however has reportedly made them the Have Nots for this week. Expect to hear lots and lots of whining about that. (The Have Nots may not have started yet though as Nicole is in bed with Corey in the Tokyo room, or that report could be wrong.)
James made his nominations in an effort to avoid getting any undue blood on his hands. He put up Frank and Bridgette, which is what he was told the house wanted and everyone would have his back. Now he knows that Paulie is telling Frank that he was surprised by this and how shocked he was when Frank went up. Paulie's playing both sides right now and that could come back to bite him. James had apparently promised Bridgette safety and feels bad that he lied to her.
Natalie is doing a good job of spying on the house and eavesdropping to report back to James. A lot of people are having conversations while Natalie's present and she's reporting back what she hears. Natalie's got a pretty good feel for the house right now. James knows there are more or less two sides with Paulie playing both sides. James joked that there's a guy's alliance and a girl's alliance and Natalie joked that she's in neither.
Zakiyah is still obsessed with the status of her relationship with Paulie asking both Nicole and James for advice. Nicole told her that Paulie and her would make beautiful babies. James has said he'll talk to Paulie about Zakiyah for her. Zakiyah doesn't know if Paulie wants to sleep in a bed with her or not now that he's no longer HOH and she's a Have Not. (I don't see Paulie climbing into a bumper car just to be with Zakiyah, but I could be wrong. With Nicole still in bed with Corey it's possible Paulie is a Have not instead of Nicole. Paulie, Michelle and Zakiyah are all still up in the Safari/Nairobi room as I type this, so they could be the Have Nots.)
We've got the POV comp coming up today. Frank really wants to win and thinks he's the big target, so he's told Bridgette that if there's a trip or something of value in the comp she should take it as he'll use his influence on James to get Davonne put up in his place and Davonne would go home over Bridgette. Meanwhile Paulie, Corey and Paul think getting rid of Bridgette over Frank might be their best move as Frank still thinks they're on his side and Bridgette is a fiercer competitor. Natalie and James are thinking of putting up Victor should someone come down and James might even save Bridgette if he wins the POV to try and get back on her good side. We'll likely go back to the old format of drawing POV players now that the Road Kill is done with each nominee picking a chip and the HOH picking the final one.
We know we'll have three strong players in the HOH comp in Frank, Bridgette, and James. One of those three will likely win it and that will make things interesting. Likely replacements would be Victor or possibly Paulie if James is feeling really brave. I don't think James will be talked into putting up Davonne, but I could be wrong. We'll see the picking of the POV players later today and then the POV comp after that. It likely won't be an intensely physical POV comp after a long endurance comp. I'd expect Frank, Bridgette, or James to win the POV. James will likely want to keep the nominees the same to avoid getting more blood on his hands.
I haven't heard anything about the mystery room just yet and I suspect the DR will have to start dropping hints, lots of hints, to get any of these idiots looking for anything. They aren't the most observant hamsters. They're memorizing everything in the house, but aren't assuming anything is a clue. It's been a while since BB did anything like that. (One year they had a safe hidden away and the house guests had to figure out the combination from clues hidden in the house.) Most of these hamsters have only watched the most recent seasons where there hasn't been anything like that, so they're not looking for anything like that.
