I have watched the video and my first reaction was he was not bending down enough for the smoke to blow in jen's face. I watched on more than one tape and sure enough I was right. Jen was sitting and Ed was only slightly bent, so the smoke would have blow in three different directions and thus would not have hit her in the face. I think she over reacted to the situation!! Watch it again folks!!!

i personally think that anyone who had to put up with Mr. Dick in that house being a would at some time break....I also still am appalled at the ice tea bit poured over her head and nothing.....along with all the other garbage talk....then blow cig smoke at her---I live in wasingotn and it is such a huge no no to even smoke....I smoke but would never ever do that ever.....he should get something for that..... does this mean that it is okay to dump water on him every time he lights up? I also think the blantent lies MR. AC tell s of incest should be getting a few noms just becuase of the liability issues ......they are a shameful group this year....and since none of them "lie" gee perhpas julie should be replaced by law enforcement?????

She should have been given a choice. Start back on the slop and only get a penalty nomination. Eat one more thing that is against the rules and you go home now. This is the problem that I have with the eating thing and I think it's the problem that most of the other HGs have, though they can't seem to phrase it very well. Jen was on slop for 30 days due to a choice she made in a competition she won. She got mad at the producers and decided to eat. I kinda cheered her at the time, though it wouldn't be my course of action. However, her eating that time did NOT make her slop punishment null and void. She should have been required to stop eating or face further punishment. If she decided to keep eating, then the punishments should increase, including removing her from the game if necessary. I think about a child chewing gum in my class. If they were told to throw the gum out and they didn't, the child would get detention and STILL have to stop chewing gum. Getting a punishment doesn't mean that they get to keep chewing until they've served the punishment. However, after seeing for years the producers' complete inability to stop people from breaking rules, it was only a matter of time until something like this happened.

Was there ever any clarification over whether the penalty vote (for this week) was real or just speculation, does anyone know?

I think the penalty nom is urban legend.

Jhezzie, Zach says he confirmed with BB that Jen had the penalty nom next week. Did you mean the penalty vote? I'm beginning to think that might be legend as no one seems able to have any first hand knowledge of it.

So let me get this straight... She broke the rules and ate. For that she got the PN. She did not get a PN for destroying the cigs? Since she got the PN for the food thing, it is now okay for her to eat and not complete her 30 days on slop? Did I get this right?

The cigarettes are Dicks property and if bb allows Jenn to destroy his belongings then it would be ok for Dick to rip and pour bleach on Jenns clothes? I don't think bb meant she could get in his belongings and ruin them all..Maybe i'm wrong but if bb let her do that i can say that Jenn would not of gotten her belongings back in one piece,,,lol

Tobor, from what they said on the feeds after the meeting: Jen definitely got the punishment for eating NOT the cigarettes. She is just continuing to eat because she figures there is nothing they can do to stop her. Jen got a Penalty Vote as punishment, which means she automatically has a vote cast against her this week. Because of that she will need 4 of the houseguests to vote to keep her (4 out of the 5 voting). If only 3 voted for her, it would be a tie, which Dani would decide and I doubt Dani would keep her.

I watched the last bit of yesterday's Showtime just now. In it Dick tells the others that the Penalty Nom was changed to a Penalty Vote because the Nom would change the process of the game, or some phrase like that, as it would change all of next week. So it seems like the vote is real and the they changed their minds on the nom. Also on the showtime feed yesterday, the ticker thing that goes along the bottom of the page said that Jen was punished for eating and didn't mention the cigarettes, so that's another confirmation that the food was the reason.

Thanks for the summary. Wow. BB loses a lot of credibility at this point. They can't even enforce their own rules. A penalty vote means nothing. If someone knew they would be staying, then they could just go off the slop and take the penalty vote. Or if someone knew that they were going to get the veto used on them, then the PV would mean nothing. What a load of crap. As far as destroying the cigs... if there wasn't a penalty for that what is to prevent people from doing that again without anything happening to them? More crap.

I'm still in favor of her dumping water on him everytime he lights up.....nothing seems to happen when he dumped water on her..... Dick also appears to be a near a breakdown of sorts. truly believe that Jen still got the bad end of the deal...he has pushed so far with the other houseguests...think perhaps he should be on the block with her.....just my opinion again. I would personally make everyone in there uncomfortable with me--what else does she have to lose....she doesn't want to go to sequester....that could be the ticket out.

I think what may have happened is that at first they said penalty nom for next week. Then they changed it to penalty vote for the punishment to be this week. ( I read that in the AG interview about the punishment being this week. ) You notice when they said next week at first they were considering changing their minds and keeping her and after they had their "meeting" and it was stated it was a vote, it all changed.

Point of clarification: he dumped iced tea on her, which if it had sugar would have been a sticky mess. No matter, he should not have dumped anything on her or anyone else. I am counting onh er to do something tonight that will at least get the group all riled up and then turn and walk out the door. < And I am not a big Jen fan, I just don't like to see people mistreated >

Jen was sitting outside eating when Dick came out of the house, lit up, and IMHO, purposely blew smoke at her. She was outside 1st. He has the entire yard to smoke in, why should she have gone in? As a former smoker, I know that cigarette smoke doesn't just dissipate. It clings to your hair and clothing. It's nasty. Just saying...

I so loved that Jen rebuffed Big Brother. The first in BB history!! If BB lies and cheats so can Jen!! Love it!! I never expected her to continue on slop after being so ridiculously treated by BB and the others. Good for her, shows BB someone can stand up to their manipulation of the game!! Bravo Jen!! Oh, about the double eviction ??? Just rumors nothing will happen but her leaving the house with her usual graciousness. Let the fun begin watching the others self-destructing.
