So, the LNC have decided to get rid of Nick when Jen is pulled off the block. Can someone explain to me the logic of getting rid of Nick? Other than Dick who wants Dani's attention all to himself and thinks this is the way to get it, what sort of short term or even long term threat is Nick and to whom? And is Dani going to put up with this? Where is she going to get the attention she craves once Nick is gone?

This is just crazy...Nick isn't going to come after any of them...They should concentrate on Kail and Jen who are direct threats and then Zach who would put any of them up if ever he could wina HOH (not likely)... Right now Nick is no threat!

I agree completely, Kail needs to go. Nick is so busy worrying about the girls in the house that he is basically putty in the hands of the LNC. Kail stirs up so much trouble and is working really hard behind everyone's backs that it is insane to me that they would keep her over anyone. Jen is scheming too but she is so on the radar screen that she really can't do much damage. It drives me crazy sometimes when I can't tell the hamsters what is *really* going on behind the scenes!

I understand the choice for Nick only if they are choosing between Zach and Nick. Out of the two of them, Nick is a bigger threat than Zach. But, I certainly don't understand getting Nick out over Kail. I can't believe they are going to keep her AGAIN. Very dumb moves on their parts. She is far more dangerous than Nick. Plus, I am tired of seeing her on the feeds!

I'm tired of seeing her on the feeds myself. I can't believe they're going to backdoor Nick. Just one more dumb move in the midst of many dumb moves.

I'm surprised they're going to get rid of Nick. Kail may very well end up winning this or at least end up in the sequester house. I'm tired of Kail and Amber....put Amber in replacement of Jen.

They don't know everything we know. Nick lied to them about the MR alliance and now they're afraid that he may still be loyal to it. They don't get to watch the feeds like we do, so they don't know that Nick would likely be one more vote for them while getting rid of Kail, Jen & Zach. I can understand why most of the group would want to get rid of him while they have the chance. Once their initial targets are gone, they don't want to have to deal with a very strong alliance of three, Nick, Dani, Dick. The others may be able to pull together a group of three but they could never be 100% positive that everyone in it wouldn't be playing with someone else. Once Jen, Kail and Zach are gone, I think Dick & Dani would be able to trust Nick 100% at that point.

Good points Ark- Dick is working against his own best interest in agreeing to this. Dani should have fought to keep him, but she has zero game skills and no persuasive powers. Do they also blame Nick for some of Eric's antics- the mustard and the vote for Kail? Personally I'm glad that Nick is going, he adds no interest to the game. Not that I'd care if Kail went either!

I'm hoping that Dick is pushing for Nick to actually cause and overthrow of the voting and get Kail out. After the POV Dick, Dani and Nick were doing some whispering in the backyard and I heard Nick say something about it being ok if he goes home. Maybe even Eric knows we will choose Kail to go out over Nick and that way he can talk others to vote out Kail. Oh Please, I hope they are smart enough to see the opportunity to get out Kail.

Not getting rid of Kail now is a HUGE mistake. It's hard to fault Dick though. I think his motivations are mixed-- selfish and fatherly-- game and personal. He doesn't trust Nick gamewise or personally. He has a gut feeling that this showmance will blow up in Dani's face. He wants Dani to have to rely on him, not some other guy. He thinks that he and Dani have a pretty good shot and Nick is an unknown that could screw things up. Let's be honest. The Nick-Dani thing would probably not have ended well one way or another. If she and Kris get through this I think they will have a great chance at a solid relationship. (but, boy is she gonna have some 'splainin to do)

I don't think it is a terribly bad decision. It eliminates Dani, Nick and Dick as a potential threesome down the road. As for Dick agreeing to it, I think he is basing it more on personal reasons, feeling he is protecting Dani and eliminating someone who is a distraction to their relationship and could damage Dani outside of the game.

I think WE are the ones being setup by Dick. He wants Kail out (he and Eric see the connection she has w/Dustin and the HUGE danger there is~IF they don't, they are stupid) If he had put up Zack, Kail would have stayed. They are using Nick as a scapegoat ( I hope). Alot of the reasons they have are clouds of smoke~vote for Kail, the mustard and the alliance w/Zack & Kail that Dick knows he no longer has. After Nick is up~they get on the "Get Kail out wagon" again. (I hope) This also gives Nick a reason for his buzz cut. PS ~those LNC meetings are soooo stupid. Everyone gives up their own gameplay. Jess is the only smart one and gets all the information she needs to play a smart game.

I feel bad for Nick. It seems he gets such a bad rap. 1. Accused of being in a secret alliance with Jen and Zach when I really don't think he is. 2. Got blamed for the mustard incident with Jen when it was Eric. 3. Got blamed for the extra Kail vote when it was Eric. 4. Got blamed for telling Kail she wasn't going home when I think it was Dustin who told her. 5. Got accused of scheming with Jen and Zach in ED HOH causing a huge blowout when in fact he went up there to listen to music and get away and they followed him, he did through them out. Jameka, Amber and Dani should want him to stay because he seems to be on their side. Dick should keep Nick because he is a vote for Dani and I don't think he would ever vote against ED out of loyalty to Dani.

Instead of playing smart, Nick is so besotted with Daniele, it's his own fault if he goes home now. Dustin and the rest are so cowed by Dick, they do just about whatever he wants. And Dick doesn't want Nick because of Daniele and because he's still paranoid about the Mrs. Robinson Alliance. Getting rid of Nick is about as stupid as getting rid of Mike. So, what do they have against Nick? I don't know, and I don't know what they have against Zach either (Perhaps it's his grin!)

oops I should have posted this comment here.. When is Nick going to be told?? I think Daniele can't wait to tell him but doesn't want to be blamed for it... Who wants to bet that Jen will be accused of telling Nick? Even if it was Daniele telling him first they will both say they heard it from Jen first.

I agree, Kail needs to go. Dustin seems to think she is putty in his hands but little does he know she would sell him out in a minute. I wouldn't trust her for anything. I personally really like Dick. He adds so much to the game. And Amber sounds like she will throw Dustin under the bus too as soon as she is done using him. There has been some really dumb game playing this season.

I think they just don't trust him, and to be honest, would you? We know only as much as they do about him. Although he is not guilty of as many things as they think he is. BB never shows any of his DR's, so all we have to go by is his word, which at times seems legit, but he does tend to separate himself from the LNC - why? Sometimes it's the shady characters like him, that can do more damage. They know where the others stand - they don't know with Nick, and neither do we.

unfortunately, we have a house which cant figure stuff out because Eric is messing things up. nick has been the suspect now for days. Eric is ruining other people's gameplay. I really detest the idea that Nick is being gotten rid of so 'our ringer' can work his way to the end using OUR information.

I can't stand Nick. Hasta la vista! His lines to Daniele are pathetic and he is boring to watch.

Nick is boring to watch only because he's so focused on Daniele. She is his downfall.

I am assuming that the HG are having the POV ceremony. Did Dani tell Nick what was going on an hour beforehand like she said she was going to?

Penpoint, she is his downfall, but I think he is using her for his gameplay and for camera time, I don't think he has fallen for her. I think he is playing her like a fine tuned guiter.

I agree Bubba. Also all his "Noble Lad" crap and offering to play not for himself but for the "good people" ie Amber and Jameka has got them suspicious of him and second guessing everything he does. Who comes in the game to play for others and to be noble?

I am relieved that we will probably be spared even the possibility of another Boogie-style showmance storyline. Boogie did that twice already, and it was depressing both times. Now maybe Daniele will start playing like a grown woman instead of a trophy girl.
