Watch the competition again if you can. Erika wants to lose it! She smirks when Boogie pulls ahead and she is happy looking the whole rest of the competition. she never looks upset that she can't catch up. And she might have been trying to get the last one wrong but got it right by mistake. Remember Drew trying to throw the final HOH contest but kept getting them right by accident? I am positive Erika did NOT want to win but hoped it was close enough to look good so maybe she could get Janie & Howie's vote. I hope they are smart enough not to give it to her!

Erika did not throw the HoH competition. Mike admitted on the feeds that Will answered his question wrong and because he knew Will so well he expected it. If you are going to throw a copetition you make an obvious miss. Everyone and their brother would have to agree the 'most shocked' will was was when he was evicted - not the night of the fast forward. Anything Erika says in the house at this point is for Mike's benefit. You really think she would tell him she was going to keep Janelle? Mike is still not being truthful with her either (he told her he always wanted her to the end when I saw him and Mike discuss getting Erica out next after Danielle - but Erika won the POV).

Mike said that he knew Will would answer the opposite of what people would expect when they asked those questions. That's why Mike got it right and she didn't, because he knows his friend better. I don't believe Will purposely answered to mislead others in case Boogie was there. Here's why: Will was shocked he didn't get evicted sooner and that he made it as far as he did. He said that repeatedly. Will knew when Janelle got POV that it was a possibility hence he started sleeping in the same bed with her and tried to keep her and Erika apart. I really don't think his eviction came as a surprise at all.

Also, if Erika really wanted to win HOH over Boogie, she would have been more disappointed. She couldn't hold back her excitement and even jumped up to hug Boogie. The answer to Will's question was obvious and I am without a doubt that even Janelle would have got it right.

Erika didn't throw the comp. I was watching her face very intently, and her concentration level was at its highest. The questions were lousy, and all of the comps were muddled or slanted. Erika was going to hold up her end of the bargain. It just wasn't meant to be for Janelle.

I don't think she did either.... ... I just wish I could be as sure that Erika would have taken Janie had she won.

Erika is there for "second" and I hope that's exactly what she gets.

How could Erika possibly (or anyone) know what Will would answer for the most surprising moment? Will getting evicted was such an "upset" that I think more people would think Will would be surprised (to say the least) about him leaving than BB doing a speed eviction round. I think it is sour grapes or wishful thinking to say that Erika threw this. I think many Janelle fans want to pin this on someone and Erika is a handy scapegoat. I just wish people would stop the hate and the nastiness. It's a game. It's a TV show.

"I think many Janelle fans want to pin this on someone and Erika is a handy scapegoat." Many? Nope. Not many. CBS threw the show in the crapper. Not Erika.

I heard Erika say on the feeds, yesterday afternoon, that if she had to, she would throw it to Boogie because she could not be the one to evict Janelle. That being said, I don't think she threw it because she didn't have to throw it. The question for Will was one I got right. I don't think he was shocked at all to be evicted. He was the only one of the 4 of them who was dressed as nicely as he was. He seemed resigned to going, to me.

It's not so much whether or not Erika threw it that bothers me. We can never know for sure. It's her reaction to losing and her happiness over the whole being in the final two with Boogie that bothers me, especially after suffering through all the recriminations and anger that she expressed in those endless conversations with Janelle the last day or so. Having said that, I feel for Erika because I think she is in a bad place right now.

I watched and rewatched the competition and Erika is definitely happy when Boogie pulls ahead and she was concentrating hard to make sure she didn't win. She was thrilled that Boogie won! She even told Boogie ahead of time that she would throw it if he promised to take her and he did.

I agree with Jimmer about feeling for Erika. I have a feeling that her reception from fans is going to come as a shock to her. Last night in one of her DRs, she made some comment about hating Boogie yet being still attracted to him. I think she is in a bad place.

I think Will KNEW he was going to be evicted so it came as no surprise to him, only Boogie. Even Janie said that was one question she got right.

I think she's going to be in a MUCH worse place in about five days .......... she won't have Boogie like she's hoping ......... and even worse (and I don't say this to sound vain) she won't have US either. She might even be better off if she LOSES because we'll be even more angry if she does (and of course I realize our support doesn't pay the bills.) I mean, I know I'm biased, but am I wrong or am I wrong?

And for the record, I don't think she threw it either ............ it would have been too hard, obvious and risky to do so.

I love Janie! Erika did not throw the competition. I didn't see any smirking, I only saw concentration and she only got one wrong. If she was trying to throw it, she would have gotten more wrong. I would have picked the same answer for Will, but now that I think about it, of course, he would pick the other answer, that is how he plays the game. He is so funny! I hate that we know so much about Boogie and Erika because I can't watch the rest of the live feeds. I think if we didn't know that he was saying what he was saying and he meant it and we didn't know she was so desperate and needy, I could enjoy it. But, I know too much and I just think icky right now.

I think Erika threw it - they were all shocked at the fast forward - but Will knew that he might be going - remember him saying to Boogie that "it's over, she won't even look at me". So that was a no brainer - plus Will has no idea who would be answering those questions. I felt bad when Janelle comes from the table and Boogie and Erika were smooching - she knew she was done.

Imo it`s not the easiest competition to throw. Some of the questions are pure guesswork. Even Boogie said he picked the speed eviction because he said Will would say the opposite when infact it was the one that shocked Will the most.

It was a no brainer and it was Erika answering the question. It was the most shocking thing to her, she answered from her perspective.

I think she was counting on the tiebreaker for throwing purposes. She happened to miss a question so the next step was unneccessary. However her GOAL was for Boogie to win it and do the dirty work of evicting Janie. Her stated goal.

Bottom line is we don't know. She told Mike that she'd throw it. Well how many lies have there been told in the BB house?? Plus, who is to say she didn't change her mind? (assuming she was not lying to Mike)

I agree we don't know. What we do know though is her reaction afterward.
