The status quo is still in place. Paul is still likely taking Nicole and Nicole is still likely taking James depending on who wins part three of the final HOH comp. BB shook things up a bit yesterday by giving the house a peek at the new season of Big Brother Over the Top. Paul and Nicole looked horrified while James looked thrilled. James asked if he could just stay in the house. Paul and Nicole realized that the fame and glory they were anticipating enjoying for nine months will now last about six days.
All three seemed to agree that Jozea would be likely to be in the new show since he's over the top. They could be right. That's been a pretty persistent rumor since the first mention of BBOTT. They were given a framed blackboard to leave a message for the future house guests. Paul divided the board up into three sections and each then left a message for the newbies. (By the way, the frame is pretty rustic, darker wood and looks more like it fits in a cabin, which could be a good hint for the decor for the BBOTT house.)
Nothing much else is going on. They were told they had about a minute for their speech. Nicole's speech starts with day one and goes on forever. Paul's timed out his speech using the microwave as a timer. Nicole is using the lunar cycle to time hers. It does tend to go on a while. Nicole's speech could end up winning an award for creative fiction, as little of what she takes credit for was actually her doing.
According to one of Nicole's many rehearsals, she and Corey divided the house with Corey in charge of managing the guys and Nicole took over managing the girls and between them they controlled the whole house the whole season. Bearing in mind that the first time Nicole talked to Natalie was day 59 and that conversation lasted all of about ten seconds, she didn't hold up her half of the deal very well. It is oddly fascinating to listen to Nicole ramble on. For the first two thirds of the season you'd hardly know Nicole was there. Her and Corey were that lump under the blankets in the corner bed in the Tokyo bedroom for most of the season. Listen to her though and she was in total control of the house the whole season.
Nicole's speech could be very effective if she was giving it to a naive audience. Unfortunately for her, she's giving it to people who were in the house and know what really happened. There are going to be some very confused looking jurors after Nicole finishes her speech. (Assuming she ever finishes her speech.) They know what really happened and they know that what Nicole said happened didn't happen, so it'll be interesting to see how they respond to that. Open mouthed awe? Giggles? Collapsing in laughter? Stunned silence?
Today will be the last day we get any real feeds. They'll go down very early tomorrow. BB will then set up the house for the final stage of the HOH comp. The yard will be filled with props from the comps this season for the after-show interviews. The various DR personnel will all say their goodbyes to the house guests. Rumor has it they may smuggle in hair/makeup people to assist the house guests for their final live show. Then tomorrow it all ends. I suspect first thing Thursday morning a crew will enter the house to flip it for the new season. I'd be surprised if that took more than a few days, then they may throw some new test hamsters in to check it out.
We're near the end now. Tomorrow night one of these three will be handed a check for a half million dollars. Another will get $50,000. And we'll all get a week off before the new season starts.
