Cricket - oooh no! Are we going to lose our Jen Bunny? I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't use the POV now. I just want to give her a hug. Why can't the give her the retainer - I don't understand that I don't think she's going anywhere, Doublethink; however, I'm reading posts that say she is thinking of not using the Veto? Did she actually say that? If you think about it, it might not be a bad idea. If she could get Eric's word the others would keep her, she could get back in his good graces and make them keep her safe for 3 weeks. It would be a brilliant way to get back at D/D for how they swayed her with their double teaming. I agree about her retainer. That is beyond wrong of BB to not let her have it. All the years and money spent on her teeth will go to waste.

Exactly what support was being shown Eric when America voted Kail out for the second week in a row after seeing the jeopardy it put him in the first week they did it?

according to jokers, jen just told kail there were never all girls in the final 7 of BB -- whoever said she was all about girl power was right!!!

I will hate to see Kail go just because Jen will really be all alone. Jen seems so down this morning. She will be chipper for veto I hope. It should be funny since they are wearing the bunny suits. I hope they wear the ears and all for the ceremony. PS: I still like Eric!

They weren't speaking for me either, Klaw. They are a bunch of women who must have actually been entertained by the Nick/Dani showmance. I was sooo not entertained. It was like watching the Bickersons. It's better with Nick gone.

I completely understand Klaw, but the AP is supposed to be working for the MAJORITY VOTES, and in this case it wasn't Nick. He could have waited until next week or the following when it might have made more sense, but he chose to be bold with a hg who had a decent following and now he must face the music.

I am glad Nick is gone too...Daniele said something along these lines last night: He was so nice, he never talked about game, etc Okay in my eyes, even better reason to get him out now-why keep someone in there who supposedly doesn't want to play? So they can cruise all the way to the finals? His name was brought up for a reason... Jen better stay in this game and I hope that she comes back hard and doesn't let D/D or any of them screw her over....I still say the dad/daughter alliance should be broken up.

Eric works on commission. If he does not make the sale he does not get paid ,he does not get fired.

Why has Kail just rolled over? When "they" tell her that if Eric is going up she is going home, why doesn't she work it????

I understand what you are saying, Earthmother, but Dustin was HOH and he was trying to keep Kail, so how could Eric get her out without making an enemy of Dustin, who might then go after Eric like Dick is. The whole problem keeps coming back to D/D being father/daughter in that house. If it was just someone close to Amber, this wouldn't be happening.

Kail won't work it since she can't be HOH for 4 weeks. She probably thinks she won't last much longer and rather go home than go to sequester.

I agree, Cricket...it wasn't entertaining for me either. Jess and Eric are though :-). Jen sounds like she has a cold, IMO.

Cricket - she did say it - sort of a threat to BB - like you better help me out with my retainer or I'll not use POV. And then she continued the discussion about it was affecting her real life, and costing her money to be there. (she could make more outside then being in the house) It was probably just a fleeting thought.

In Eric's defense: what is he supposed to do, sit in a corner and do nothing while waiting for his directives from America? Living with 13 other people it was inevitable that Eric was going to develop relationships and shape personal opinions about other hgs. To be fair, AP did not officially start until 6 days after the hgs moved into the house so that alone put Eric at a disadvantage. To think that Eric can be objective 24/7, avoid game talk every 2-3 days, and remain noncommitted until he receives his directives is not possible. Just because Eric is America’s player doesn’t mean he can mentally or physically check himself out the game until America tells him to do something.

He could have used his (car salesman) gift of gab to keep them from "stamping" their decision too soon. He could have made arguments for both sides and suggested that they be very careful and not make a big mistake, and wait until Wednesday to meet and decide who is best to send home. That would have saved him, but the truth is he wanted Nick gone and with or without us he was going to make that happen. He did and now he has to find a way to get out of it.

Eric is playing no more dirty than Will did in both his seasons, particularly his first. And no dirtier than Daniele of Daniele/Jason fame. And many others who have preceded Eric. I don't really care for some of the things Eric has done so far in the game, but going after Nick was the right move for him. He saw a D/D/N alliance as a threat to his own future in the house and made one independent move and we want him out. If America were playing anything more than an emotional game rather than strategic (something posters every year seem to despise), we'd be trying to figure out how to help Eric win this game, not how to sabotage him. I personally don't care if Eric goes next week. I don't like him at all. If America's player is going to have an opportunity to have a vote for the winner, he has to first make sequestor.

Jen said that, but I think she's feeling bad. I really think she regrets telling D/D about Eric as she's gotten thrown in the middle of it all. She's pissed about her teeth going back after she paid 5,000 to move one tooth. And that she's going to be losing money by staying there. I think she's just feeling pretty down.

Cricket - I guess I'm being thick. How would Eric keep her safe if she didn't use the POV. Wouldn't he still be up next to her and then she wouldn't have the votes?

If Jen does not use the veto I hope America continues to vote out Kail.

But Will and Danielle had not agreed to go in the BB house and play for AMERICA and do what we wanted! And Eric lies are to undermine OUR vote, which is his role and obligation in the house. For example, I hated that he decided to tell Jessica and all of America about the secret Amber confided in him about her abortions. I thought it was very dirty play and totally unneccessary. BUT that said, I didn't complain about it, in regards to his AP role, because that gameplay had nothing to do with our votes. My problem is when he completely undermines what he agreed to do, ie Nick. The task was to do all he could to keep Nick and get Kail evicted. As I've posted a few gazillion times, by going to everyone and telling him to ignore anything he says about keeping Nick is clear proof that he is not playing for us, not following our wishes and not going through with the role he signed on for. I doubt BB had a gun to his head to make him agree. He choose to go along with the AP role and he isn't. Period!

Actually, Dustin really wanted Zach out last week. It was Eric/Amber/Dick that got him to change to Nick. Basically, Dustin just didn't want Kail to leave.....
