Never really heard zach whine. He is in a hard position, but it doesn't seem to be bothering him. Danielles whining is just horrible!!

The breakdown of the rabbit hurt Dick and truly helped Zach.


Well, if that's the case, Evil dick only has his own daughter to blame...lol. Maybe Daniele should stand in line for some Evil dick harassment.

Dani also holed up away from everyone with Nick until he was out of the house.

I think houseguests have always stayed and watched endurance comps and encouraged those they are alligned with ... It would have been wrong for them not to have let Dani

Right Gayle!!lol Good point! What really hurt dick is all the smoking and drinking. He was too into trying to rattle zach that he didn't pay any attention to his strategy. Dick thinks too much of himself when it comes to "getting into people's heads". Someone like jen or amber would be easy and it has always been his first line of defense. I honestly think that it rattled dick a little when he saw it wasn't working on zach.

They've always allowed the "3rd" person to stay outside with them for the remainder of the endurance comp.. I know I didn't like it but I thought it was completely appropriate to let Dani be out there with them.

Actually Kalekona The ranting was a little further into it. It wasn't the whole 7 1/2 hours..... it was only like 25 mins.... um yeah. its just sad that this is always his first line of attack. He should have known that sooner or later people would become ammuned to his tactics. He and Danielle got way too cocky and hopefully it will work in zach's favor. Dick held on for dear life because his "sure thing" Danielle fell and he was just trying to protect his butt.

It rattled Evil dick enough to be out before Zach.

Actually the "ranting" went nonstop (seriously barely catching his breath) for over an hour. At the end of that hour, Daniele fell off, he continued for maybe 5 more minutes, then he stopped.

Also, about an hour after the comp ended and Dick was finally able to say a word or two, Dani was talking about the white rabbit, and Dick tried to claim that it was Zach who broke it.

Since he could see that is wasn't distracting Zach from the beginning, I think Dick's ranting last night was more to distract Dani from thinking about the cold. Especially since he stopped soon after she fell off.

He was ranting because Dani ASKED him to do that! He stopped because it wasn't getting him anywhere.

No, I think Dick wanted to rattle Zack. And I think she was encouraging him to do so. IMO she tried to get him started again a few times later that night but he was too tired to put forth the effort. All that vitriol must expend a lot of energy!

And regardless of how long it actually went on (and it was nicely timed for the ShoTwo feeds), it seemed like HOURS and HOURS and HOURS!

Dick was still ranting when we went to vortex on the feeds for an hour or so. Don't know how long the Showtime viewers saw that go on. I kept thinking he was hurting himself by expending so much energy to shout.

That was a tough competition, and I give kudos to all of them for enduring it as long as they did. Zach owned the night, though.

What is the real story of "Zach breaking the rabbit"? I didn't see that part of the comp.

Wasn't it against the rules to touch the bar? That's the only way he could have broken it. And that would mean disqualification, isn't that right?

Will someone please set the record straight for those of us who didn't see that part of the comp.? TIA

I thought Dick missed a great opportunity early this morning to make a "deal" with Zack that if he stepped off that Zack would take Dani to final 2 if he won the final HOH competition. He had nothing to lose!

I haven't seen (oops, that should be read) anybody who actually SAW Zack's feet or legs touch the bar. I only read that this morning from statements from Dick and Dani. It could have happened, I just didn't personally see it (and I reran the part where Dani fell off several times).

From what I remember the instructions were "you cannot stop the bar" but it had not stopped when it got to Dani...it had slowed but it hadn't stopped.

also from watching the clip dani stepped backwards too and her feet went off the stump.. if the bar hadn't been there she would have just fallen to the ground.. but she fell on the bar instead.. i kept thinking why is she backing up instead of jumping over it but i think the speed had changed and she was trying to adjust to it..

Just before it happened, I thought Dani was the slightest bit off balance, and that's what caused her to miss her jump. She stepped back to recover and slipped.

Thanks, Roxip. I can't understand why BB can't be more specific about rules. Seems to me the only thing that would stop the bar is if someone deliberately did it and that doesn't make sense to me. I had gotten the impression from somewhere that the HGs were not allowed to touch it.

This could turn into another one of those "blue ball" type arguments. When the HGs are awake later today they may talk about it again and it could become a big thing.

My impression was that they couldn't NOT step or hop over it (i.e., let it hit the front of their legs and stop at that point). But that's just my impression and I haven't had much sleep, needless to say...LOL!

If Zack had stopped the bar I am quite sure that D/D would STILL be screaming about it.

My take on Dani falling is this. Something made the bar stop in the center of her stump. I don't know what made it stop but it looked like it stopped. Dani slid her feet back, maybe trying to judge if she still had room to jump over it and stay on the stump on the other side of the bar. While moving her feet backwards, her right foot slipped off the edge of the stump and she was down.
