I think the closer it gets to the actual eviction, Amy is feeling more and more resentment to Gerry for putting her in a vunerable position.
Yeah sure, Lisa was the one that put her up, but Amy sees which way the wind is blowing and she wants to be safe from association with Gerry. I think Amy is playing the game now.

Gerry also made it quite clear today that he fully expected Amy to be voted out. The way he said it, I can see why Amy is upset as she is quite sensitive. Amy has white hot emotions so Gerry is on her list right now.

Yeah, what happend to the house meetings? Isn't that like a Big Brother sponsored thing? (By that I mean that BB requires them to have a weekly meeting.) Maybe it's too early for it? (Not that it's REALLY to early, but that BB hadn't planned on having any this early.)

I think Amy is resentful of Gerry and lets not forget Gerry is playing the game 24/7, even though he keeps saying he isnt going to play the game and he just wants to get to know people. I find him really creepy the way he goes about trying to get information out of people and what they are thinking. He will ask a question as though he is asking in innocence and then he "suddenly" realizes he is looking for information so he says "forgive me" I didn't mean to ask you that or I shouldn't have asked that. Some of the people say that is ok and volunteer the information. I have seen Amy just ignore it. Watch how he asks those questions, he looks out of the side of his eyes and then in an exaggerated casual manner puts forth the question.

I think Amy is a lot more astute about people than she is given credit for. Gerry thinks he is of superior intelligence to everyone in the house and he can win the whole thing because of his intelligence. He is openly sneaky and I think most people can see what he is up to.

But I don't get why everyone is shocked that Gerry said he thought Amy was going. None of them have told him of the change of plans. He and Lori still think that Lori is the one that has been promised protection so, in their minds, Amy is gone because the core 6 will vote her out.

It seems to me they are just looking for anything with which to condemn Gerry. I am not saying that he is a favourite of mine but I do think they are being horribly unfair to him.

so let me get this right....one of the reasons everyone is treating Gerry like they are is because he already broke the alliance...right? But then didn't everyone else more or less tell Lori she was "safe" when she was nominated....then they are telling Amy she is safe when she got nominated..they all changed their mind too...right!?

Right,Crazy. They keep blaming Gerry for doing the samew rthings they have done or would do in his position.

They just don't seem to judge themselves at all...only find fault with others.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong here (missed the first few days of BB3), but the way I read this is that the bulk of the HG's, Gerry included agreed that Marcellas & Lori would be put up, and Marcellas would be voted out. Gerry agreed to this along with virtually everyone else.

Then Gerry has a case of the guilts because his reasons for putting up Marcellas are based on race and sexual orientation. So Gerry turns his back on the agreement he made with the others, veto's and saves Marcellas. Gerry put himself on the block right there because none of the others can trust him anymore. He has ensured that Lori gets the boot and himself in turn. If he had simply stuck to the agreement he made, then Marcellas would be going and the others wouldn't be looking at Gerry as someone they can't trust.

How can he or anyone else expect the others to stand by what they promised Lori when he (Gerry) is the one that pulled the rug out. Seems to me Gerry dug himself the hole he's in and dug one for Lori too. I can't understand why Lori is even still talking to him.

Again please correct me if I'm wrong here, but this is my read on what Gerry did and why he's in such a hole right now.

They will find anything to blame Gerry for, they have had it in for him since the washing hands incident. The have looked for any excuse. When I watch them I feel like I am looking at a bunch of teenagers who are just sitting at home waiting for the parents to leave so they an partee.

They want him gone and is pick any reason.

crazy, i think that its lori who they are voting out, or at least thats the last thing i heard/read. but who knows that could have changed.

i feel for gerry 'cause he has to listen to those bozos say terrible things, but he could just confront them(which is what i would do with a few choice words) or they could confront him and get it all out in the open. i can't stand when things aren't in the open. i also really can't stand that core group. i just want to rip their hair out.

ghost while in one sense you are right, there is more to the story. The original alliance was Gerry, Eric, Chiara, Lisa, Josh and Amy. Then within 24 hours, gerry and amy were out of the alliance (although they did not know it at the time) and Tonya and Roddy were in. So, it seems to me anyway, the core 4 backed out on their word to Gerry and Amy long before Gerry backed out. And Gerry went to them and told them he was going to veto. Nothing he did was underhanded.

Again, I am not particularly fond of Gerry, but I feel that he is getting a bit of a raw deal here. He is being made out to be a devil (or as Josh says, a Nazi).

I pretty much agree Ghost. I felt sorry for Gerry at first but he did this to himself. He utterly miscalculated and his paying the price. I only hope some of the others can get over their Gerry hate and realize they need to bust the real alliance first.

I agree with you cameltoes, they need to bust the alliance, Gerry isnt going to make it to the end, there is time to deal with him later.

The six have played it great. THe three guys in the six were up until the veto considering Gerry the sixth person. The girls in the six were thinking they wanted Tonya in Gerry's place so that it would be even with 3 and 3. They guys got upset because they thought that Tonya was just being given the illusion that she was part of the six, but when Gerry came out the way he did then TOnya had to actually become part of the six.

As for everyone including Amy to be disliking Gerry now is self defense. THe same reason Marcellas was chosen. If another person is the hands on favorite to be voted out next then that means that it wont be you leaving. Every person in there is happy with Gerry going because they wont have to next week.

watching his veto speech tonight, I do not feel sorry for him. It was embarrassing to watch. on another subject, watch out for Danielle.

I think Gerry's problem is that he looks at these people like he does his students. He doesn't have the control and power here that he does in the classroom. They may act like 13 year olds but they are 13 year olds that can kick his butt out of there.

Good point LlKool,
I agree !

You hit the nail on the head LLkoolaid, I agree with you.

All his pontificating and drama queen diary rooms are just an indication to me he is another in the long list of wannabe actors. At least when Marcellas does the drama bit he's funny. Gerry seems totally lacking a sense of humour. And he's just icky

Llkool you are exactly right.

Yeah-
Why didn't they black out his man boobs on tonight's show?
That was really must-to-avoid television, don't you think?
Wow.
I know it made me push away from the old breakfast bar...

Well, I still feel sorry for Gerry. Now Marcellus, who vowed to defend Gerry with his life, is listening to Amy that Gerry can't be trusted. They need to keep Gerry around for a while until they break the power of the six, but they just can't see that! He's being totally demonized. He's a bit pompous, but compared to Josh he's a prince.

I think Amy thinks that she now has a ticket into the inner circle. Sheez!

I can't help but wonder if BigBrother didn't push for Marcellus to stay in the house.
He's an interesting person and I would rather see him than Lori in there just for that reason. I'm always suspicious that more is going down than probably is though..as far as interference from BB is concerned, I mean

Well Josh manipulated this mess with Gerry,,,he is scandalous by far and needs a wake up call,,,I definitely feel that Gerry has gotten a Bum deal for all of this,,,so he has a heart,,,the alliance was started the second Josh opened his mouth in the house,,,its really hard to form instant opinions and keep them,,,too bad for Gerrys' sake,,,don't know how he will get out of the rut he is in,,,*sigh*
