Rachel says she definitely would not open PB if it is offered.

That's much easier for Rachel to say BEFORE she hears the offer.

All I know is, if offered, AG likes her 'twists' to be taken. So don't be surprised if AG ups the ante if Rachel turns the first offer down. You have to think an offer something along the lines of an afternoon away from the pressures of the house alone with Brendon and the ability to play in the next HOH would be enough to convince her to open Pandora's Box.

Rachel has to realize that she's the biggest target left in the game and so far, she's done ALL the work to keep both her and Jordan in the game since Jeff was evicted. She also has to know that next week, even if Jordan wins HOH, she's not safe unless she or Jordan also win the POV. Not being able to play in the HOH contest makes her much more vulnerable than any other player next week especially when's she is, by all accounts, the biggest target left in the game. Giving yourself TWO chances to get to F3, by having the ability to play in both the HOH and POV comps, is much better than putting all your hope that either Jordan or Rachel win the POV contest for Rachel to remain safe. It would be foolish to quickly dismiss and not seriously consider anything that gives her a better chance to stay in the game.

I'm not saying turn on her partner, but she needs to put her own best interest over team R/J's best interest. That $500K first prize would sure be helpful to her with Brendon in grad school and all.

I love Team Jordache :-) but see Rachel going home after next week. The balance of power will shift. Sadly I see someone like Porche winning this season. /floater and did almost nothing.

I think Jordan has done less in this game than anyone else left in the house. Throughout this entire game she's never been a target of anyone. She's been surrounded by shields and people playing for her. First if was Jeff, now it's Rachel. Even Kalia was/is afraid of the backlash of voting out Jordan. Jeff talked about 'people waking up who haven't done anything in this game until now' when he was evicted. Well, that described Jordan just as well as it described Porsche, Kalia or Adam.

Rachel's the only left that's really had to fight to stay there. She's had the target on her back for weeks now. I hope she wins this thing.

All AG has to do is promise Rachel a CBS destination wedding, and that Pandora's Box is OPEN! : )

I hate to disagree, but Jordan did win an HOH...if Jeff and Brendan had not so obviously thrown it, we will never know if she won it on her own merit or not. But they deliberately did not try. Jordan had the high score and might actually have won that one anyways. Jordan DOES try at nearly all of the comps, unlike some that deliberately throw them, and is really hard on herself when she does not win. And she plays a much better social game than probably everyone else there this year.

I am watching BBAD and LOLing at all of them trying to figure out what lie Shelly is going to tell to the jury! I guess they are forgetting that she is taking a video with her! Maybe they think she will hide the video and say there wasn't one, LOL!

I believe Rachel when she says she's not opening the box, but if it's Tori Spelling, she might want to do it for Adam - both because it would mean so much to him, and because it would surely secure his loyalty and vote.

When flashback 1:30am Feed 3 Sept. 2nd loops, go to feed 1 at 2:09am where the talk carries on. Then at 3:25am Jordan and Rachel go to HOH discuss the chat Rachel had with Kalia.

She'll open it if she has reason to suspect it's Brendon. Frankly, she's going to need some kind of help next week she can't rely on Jordan or Adam for anything.

Have past prizes resulted in game-related rewards for the HOH? I don't remember.

Jbw Julie said Pandora's box is tied to a celebrity. If they tell Rachel if she opens the box she will get to see someone she wants to see she may think it is BR and open it.

Julie also said it would benefit only ONE HG...

If the surprise is a celebrity...how will that benefit only one HG?? Is the celebrity going to adopt them or something?

HEY...its big bro.... could happen...

Matt's Pandora's box was a 2 week Diamond POV. If that is what she gets, she will open it!

For some reason I do not think Rachel will make it to the end. I think she has played a wonderful game, but she puts other people before herself and that may be her downfall. Every win she has had recently she has told Jordan that they won she is trying her very best to protect Jordan and I honestly believe she cares for her like a dear friend. However, I have a feeling that Jordan when pressed will only think of herself and not the two as a pair. She even seems upset with Rachel winning... I have a feeling that Jordan hopes her winning streak is over so she can be sent to the jury by one of the other players. Just my beliefs.

I think Jordan is more upset with herself than Rachel.

Jordan has not been as successful with competitions this year as she was in her last season. With all the talk of "floaters" and people not pulling their weight in their alliances, I think Jordan is feeling pretty low about herself now. Rachel is doing all the physical work to further their alliance and Jordan is prolly feeling like dead weight.

I think she still blames herself for not winning the HOH against Kalia that sent Jeff to the jury.

Rachel seemed OK with Jordan's odd response to Julie, but it might come back to her now. I agree that Jordan will cut Rachel off easily - I think Jordan is realizing that her lack of competitive skills could really hurt her.

She might think that sitting beside Adam in F2 is her best bet, but the chances of either of them getting there is slim (although she did win final HOH in her season ...).

My bet is that after campaigning like mad to get rid of Kalia, she's going to be sucking around Porsche big time.

Kep,

I have been saying since the HOH LAST week that got Jeff sent out and is blaming herself for that. She was NOT crying that night entirely because her boyfriend was gone...she was mostly crying because she felt it was HER fault he was gone.

I have also been saying that Jordan is NOT throwing these competitions...well except for the last VETO comp...she is coming in 2nd and sometimes 3rd in most of them.

If Jordan only thought of herself, Shelly would not have gotten the phone call. Jordan defended Rachel to Shelly and Adam many times after she got to know Rachel better. Jordan is a sweet girl...not perfect, but definitely not self centered. She wants to win just like the rest of the HGs, all of them think they deserve the money more than the other people. Adam thinks he has played a great social game, Porsche thinks she has played better than the rest, Kalia has great moments of grandieur, Rachel thinks she deserves it...and probably if any of us were in the this house we would think we deserved it too!

Funny that Jordan is blaming everybody for Jeff's demise except the person who nominated him and then cast the tiebreaker vote.

I know she's campaigning hard to get Kalia out now, but that seems to be based on her fear of Kalia's abilities in a question-based competition.

I think Rachel might want to keep Porsche in the house because she wants to go to the final 2 with her.

I don't understand everyone's thinking that Jordan hasn't played as well as others just because she hasn't won several comps and HOH's. Jordan has played the best social game of them all and in my opinion that is much harder than winning a physical competition.

Rachel has won the veto and HOH that have kept them safe but Jordan has done her part too. Jordan has played a huge part in helping Rachel stay calmed down and not letting her emotions get in the way. She has kept Rachel from making the snide remarks that she usually does that ticks people off. Rachel is playing a much better social game than usual and I credit her teaming with Jordan for that. I also think Rachel knows how she can be so she gets it when Jordan says "she is a handful" because she knows she can be.

Rachel and Jordan are a dream team because one is great in the physical competitions and the other is great at the social aspect. I think they are definitely equals, just in different areas.
