Is it just me, or is Jessica totally open to re-aligning with other people? She seems trapped in the LNC and while I think she would be loyal to Eric, she wouldn't mind working with Daniele and Zach. Not sure if she will stay aligned with Amber-Jam-Dustin for the rest of the game.

Maybe it's because she has this depressed look on her face sometimes, I dunno. I think she wants out.

considering dick has been nothing but pleasant towards her and she gets along with dani and jen, i think that would be good for her. she doesn't like amber, you can tell. she's not a positive person (amber).

she also knows zach thinks she's the bees knees and i think she knows eric is faithful to only her.

she's sitting kinda pretty right now :-) and i love love love it!!! :-)

Hmmm. I dunno, I'm not getting that vibe at all.

I think she feels especially close to Eric and Jameka. I'm pretty sure she could take or leave Amber and Dustin. But I haven't seen any warmth for Jen, Zach, or Daniele. And it looks like she's shrewd enough to know that Dick's got to go, to split up the Donato pairing (even though Eric worked her over for six solid hours to cut Dustin loose).

You may be right but I'm not reading her that way.

I think she'll have to warm up to Jen. It seems Jess is still holding her at arm's length but will hopefully realize that as the numbers dwindle, Jen would love a chance to be more included in an alliance with her.

ETA: Not sure either Sidhe--just a good alternative to the Dick/Justion/Eric threads

jessica has stated a few times that she doesn't have a problem with jen. those two i want in the finale. they both play a great game. IMHO, they are the least dirty players this year.

After she fell for Jen's lie that Eric and Dustin were in some kind of alliance with Dick, I can't figure out her "thinking" at all.

How can that be a "lie" when it is just her (Jen's) opinion??? (re: Eric & Dustin in an alliance)

Puzzled,

I am not surprised Jen raised questons in Jess' mind. I think by this point in the summer, most of the HG's have at least latent doubts about how much they can trust the others in the house. if they are given a reason to question, even if there is no basis for that reason, they are going to feel insecure about someone else's trustworthiness.

I personally thought Jen's comments were exquisite in their timing and delivery. With just a few words and to only one person, she shook the LNC5 to its knees -- and may guaranteed Dustin's nomination, possibly setting him up to be ousted.

I think it would be great if Jess decided to allign with Dani, Dick, Jen and Zach and brought along Eric. That would be fantastic! It would completely change the game up and they'd pick off Dustin, Amber and Jameka one by one, then probably kick out Dick to make the Sequester house a living Hell for the 3 LNCers. Hehe. Unless they'd want to try to take him to the end. Jen probably can only beat Zach and Dick, while everyone can beat any of those three. It would be hilarious to see the looks on the faces of the LNC if Dustin got chopped tomorrow.

I think Jessica is starting to realize she can't quite trust those she thought she could trust. And so she's now being forced to actually play the game. And once she starts to look around at her "alliance" she's gonna realize she's not really in that strong of an alliance. Amber had Dustin (until tomorrow) and Jameka. Jessica has Eric. Someone whom she is starting to distrust.

It seems like Jess mentioned in her DR sessions more than once that she is ultimately playing for herself. It's not too late for the girl to get game and deserve to win. Also, she may get over the crying "oh what shall I do?" reaction and get on with the game. I think she'll do fine.

I agree--I just can't believe that Jessica fell for it, hook, line, and sinker. Why on earth would Dustin put himself up to save Dick and Eric?

"Is it just me, or is Jessica totally open to re-aligning with other people? "

I think she's smart just like Zach is smart about aspects of this game. They both realize that the house dynamics change some every week and that the fewer people in the house, the more drastic those changes will be.

Right now the LNC-5 is working to get rid of D/D, but it won't be long before they HAVE to go after each other.

Keeping all her options open is the smart thing for Jessica to do. No matter how many people (or "friends") you have in your alliance, only TWO HG can be in the final two.....and that means the LNC-5 alliance will have to be adjusted and whittled down.

She knows better than to ignore the inevitable until the last second and then scramble for a Plan B. Plan A will fall apart (it always does!) and to win, they have to be able to adapt quickly and efficiently.

Jessica is a smart cookie and she makes me laugh! Go Jessica! :-)

I don't think Jessica is smart game-wise at all. She seems to have a really hard time making decisions without input from others, and she is very easily swayed by the last person she speaks to before making a decision.

I think she is naive and trusting, and in way over her head with the shark-like personalities in the house.

She appears to feel threatened by Jen as evidenced by her behavior over the past week, I don't think she'll ever align herself with Jen. It's the hot-chick scenario, and same goes for Danielle, she won't ever be really close to her either. Jess wants to be the "hot-chick".

I don't dislike Jess, but I would like to see her grow a backbone. I felt her pain on last night's show, I remember being young and dumb and trusting the wrong people, even when red flags were popping up all over the place.

That's the thing when you are young and naive. You can stubbornly stay faithful to someone who does not have your best interests at heart and nothing anybody says will sway your heart.

I totally enjoyed watching Jess' reactions and observations while Eric was "sick". She really stepped up to the plate and started those wheels in her head in motion. She's right - she has to be in this game for herself. Since she cannot compete in the HoH competition, I hope she does make a deal with Eric Dani/Dick to keep her off the block for a week or even two. The LNC-5 are going to start to splinter likely after this Thursday no matter who goes home.
