And the feeds are back! While the feeds were down Victor once again was evicted, Paul won HOH and nominated Nicole and Corey and then the POV was played and Paul won the POV making him the most powerful person in the house.
When the feeds came back up Nicole and Corey had James cornered demanding to know what he's going to do. (At this moment James has the one and only vote to evict, assuming the POV isn't used.) James did his usual hemming and hawing and put the heat on Paul saying he'd do whatever Paul wanted since Paul was keeping him safe this week.
Nicole and Corey then let James go and he headed up to the HOH where he and Paul discussed their options and both agreed Corey had to go.
Nicole then found her way to the HOH room for a one on one with Paul. Paul assured her she was safe and he wanted James to vote out Corey. He then told Nicole he wanted a final two deal with her and threatened her that if she didn't take it he'd cut off her bun and sell it on E-Bay for $50,000. (Paul might be a tick off on the value of Nicole's bun.) Nicole agrees to the final two deal and they plot how to sell it to James. (Like it takes a lot of plotting to do that. "Hey James, vote out Corey." "Okay.")
Corey then replaced Nicole in the HOH and Paul told him what a beast he was and that he knew he couldn't beat him in the final two comps, so he needed Corey gone. They hug it out and all's good between them. Paul offers to let Nicole and Corey have the HOH room for some privacy on their last night together but Corey says he prefers sleeping downstairs. (They don't really need privacy anyway as we've seen countless times on the feeds.)
Nicole meanwhile is downstairs practicing her eviction speech telling Corey what a great guy he is and she can't wait to see him outside the house then telling James to do what's best for his game. (Knowing that he'll vote out Corey.) By the way, Nicole may have thrown the POV comp to Paul when she saw he was doing well, so he'd get rid of Corey for her. This keeps Corey's blood off her hands. If she'd won POV, James would have had to go up and she'd have to vote one of the two out. It's much easier for her to lose and let Paul/James do the dirty work.
Nicole and Corey reunite in their bed and Nicole tells Corey everything Paul said so she's not hiding anything from him. Nicole tells Corey she's not taking Paul to the final two, but she's taking James if she gets the chance. Corey approves. Nicole's worried that she won't do well in her final two speech and answering questions. She asks Corey what was her biggest game move? He's stumped. She suggests convincing Natalie and Michelle to put up Paul and Victor might have been her biggest game move. (Yeah, as game moves go, that's not overly impressive since Victor turned right back around and came back into the house.)
And that largely brings us up to speed. At this moment Nicole and Corey are on the block with Corey the clear target. James will stand up on live TV tonight and cast the sole vote to evict and Corey will go bye-bye. Nicole will get all weepy and upset then start operation back stab Paul where she unites with James to get Paul out and get the two vets to the final two. At least one of the two vets will be competing in that final leg of the final three part HOH comp, so they've got a shot at keeping them both together. If both James and Nicole are competing neither will care who wins as they'll each take the other.
Tonight will find Corey going to the jury, and the first leg of the final HOH comp getting started. This is typically an endurance comp of some sort. Then in a couple of days the second stage of the HOH comp will take place. And then nothing happens for days until the finale a week from tonight.
