Seems to me like Ryan's in a bit of a pickle being HoH. He is automatically in the final three, so it was obviously a good move, but how is he going to get his choice to the final three with him? If Sheila or Adam choose who's evicted they'll keep the other and evict Sharon. If Sharon chooses who's evicted it'll take a lot of persuading for her to evict Sheila not Adam. If you were Ryan, who would you nominate and who would you want out, to not upset any of your alliances?

nominate sheila and sharon .. hope that adam or himself wins pov ... and convince adam to vote out shelia (use the endurance factor .. shelia can win the endurance and sharon can't...they have a better chance at the endurance over sharon...) and promise adam final two pick if he wins the back to back HOH...

Sharon told Shelia that if she (Sharon) won HOH she would put Shelia and Adam up so she could back door Ryan. Like yeah right! I bet Ryan tells the same thing to Adam, he will put up Adam and Shelia so he can back door Sharon. I think either Adam or Shelia will go.

Honestly, at this point in the game you really can't worry about people being upset especially Ryan, who has deals with all of them. Ryan should put up Sharon and Sheila. That way he can still play the middle but I don't think he should try to win POV. He should just let it play out.

If I was Ryan I would eat everything in the HOH basket in one sitting. Go into junk food coma not waking up until the finale. Seriously, this is the one HOH I would not want. It can make or break the win for you.

Yeah, he can't use the "backdoor" plan. There is no guarantee as to who will win pov. The pov winner decides who goes home unles the pov winner is Ryan.

If I were Ryan, nominate Shiela and Sharon. If the noms stay the same, let Adam vote out Sharon (and her 3, maybe now 4, guaranteed sequester votes). If one of the girls win POV, get them to take out Adam. ETA - I would throw the POV if I were him too.

The only way Ryan can control who goes is to put up the person he wants out and to win POV. Any other way, the POV winner decides. His best bet is to put up whoever he wants to go, and I haven't a clue who he really wants out. He's all over the place.

I think Ryan can beat Sheila for sure, Adam possibly, but not Sharon, so really he should aim to get Sharon out. However getting Sharon out means he's in the final three comp with Sheila and Adam, and I think both of them would take the other. Sharon would probably take him to final two with her, because she's very loyal. I think he'd be best to put up Adam and Sheila, citing the "last pair" excuse, that those two are probably loyal to each other. Then let them fight it out at POV.

I think it's safest to put the girls up, because he can tell Sharon he will try to win POV for her, but their F2 deal and association are secret. And clearly he is closest with Ryan. But since it now all boils down to POV, noms don't mean much in the big picture. He needs to point that out a lot too IMHO.

Well, if he doesn't put Sharon up the others should start getting suspicious (about time!!) and I hope Sheila wakes up and take notice. I heard that Adam wants to go on the block so he doesn't have to evict Sheila, bad move because this leaves Sharon as the voter and he'll be gone, unless Adam or Ryan win POV and Sharon goes up, Adam will have no choice but to evict Sharon (too bad Ryan!). Also, they think Sharon can't last endurance while Sheila could. No one suspects that this argument by Ryan is because of his deal with Sharon. I can't believe no one has figured it out yet. Ryan needs to be unmasked, if not, well he deserves to win.

I would get sheila out first. Then no matter who is the next HOH Ryan goes to final two.

who does he really want in F2? I think it's crazy to keep Sharon.

Ryan's best chance for F2 is to get Sheila out because both Sharon and Adam are likely to choose him if they get final HOH. Sharon should go along with this plan; otherwise, she will be voted out. But, as others have already noted, the POV is key this week.

If I were Ryan, I'd tell them I'm drawing a single random key from the bag, and sticking it in the box. This HOH is useless anyways, because the POV winner is the only one with the power to evict. I would say, "I like you all, I pulled a random key from the bag, and I didn't even look as I was putting it in, because I don't want to evict any of you; I like you all. As well, I am just happy to have this final HOH as immunity, and I have no intention to play for POV. I think the winner of POV should (and will) the the one making all of the real decisions this week, and I wish all three of you luck. And with that, this meeting is adjourned." It shows each of them that he doesn't want to really put any of them at risk, and it also lets him absolve himself of any responsibility for who goes this week. He HAD to be happy to have HOH for the immunity perk, but he can keep his hands clean with the eviction part.

I'd throw all three keys onto the HOH bed and then closing my eyes, I'd pick up two and put them in the box. Then I'd very carefully not look at the other key and instead stick it in the bag. Then, I'd tell everyone the way I chose the nominies because it doesn't make any difference who Ryan nominates. If he wins POV, then he would have to make a decision about who to give it to (if anyone). Until then, all he has is immunity from eviction. As to how to get out the person he wants evicted... Well, his only weapon is his powers of persuation.

It really doesn't matter which players Ryan initially puts on the block this week. Winning HoH only guaranteed his place in the final three. The winner of the P.O.V. has the real power this week. If Sharon wins P.O.V., she'll vote out Adam. If Adam wins P.O.V., he'll keep Shelia around and Sharon is sent to the jury house. If Shelia wins P.O.V., she'll have to chose which alliance she'll keep, Adam or Sharon. That's what I'm hoping for, Shelia to win P.O.V. She'll have to chose between Adam or Sharon, thus losing at least one more jury vote if she makes the final 2. If Ryan wins P.O.V., he'll have to decide which one of the three other remaining players he will give the power to determine who goes to the jury house this week. Ryan is 100% safe this week. Shelia is 99.9% safe this week. Both Ryan and Shelia will be in the final three. This week the eliminated player will be either Sharon or Adam.

I would have to get rid of Adam and I would put Shelia up as pawn and let Sharon vote Adam out. He is the one nobody can beat in the jury vote.

I agree Govols, his goal needs to get Sharon out of the house. If either of the boys want to win I feel their best chance is Sheila in the end with them. (Although I would love to see her evicted this week) If I was playing I would do my best to keep Sheila to sit beside me at the f2.
