They're actually allowing him to join in a conversation and acknowledging the things he says.

Yeah, now they all realize they could ride him till the end so they better be nice to him. They don't think anyone would choose him over them. Given the opportunity, Amy could have been the same way for Roddy but he was too blind to see it.

Of course they are...now they have another goat...AMY.

They'll be back to hating Gerry soon enough, never fear!

Only because they're thinking he's no threat and he's gone in the next week or two.

Spunky, you wouldn't feel that way if you had seen last night's action.
Jason was VERY much a part of the group last night, from helping Amy in her drunkeness to finally seeing this is a game and deciding to actually play!

He observed Roddy talking to Amy and he said " That is why he (R) is so dangerous. He can vote her out and then do that and she will vote for him to win in the end.) or something to those words.

Then Mar Dan and Jason hatched an even greater plan to take down the Fab 4.
Jason is very much playing the game now!
He's even starting to show his hand about how much of this he is really taking in by some of his comments. I think Dan and Mar were impressed.

Watch Mar and Dan with Gerry today, because they said they were going to get him involved on a deeper level.
Mar is going to spend a lot of time with Rod also, to keep him guessing where he's alliances lay.

Might be an interesting day, but not as much as last night was! What an eye opener for them all!
I stayed up all night with several others watching all this, in the Really playing the game tonight thread...so now off to bed I go! LOL

I know the fab 4 (love that term) have underestimated him. This plan would work if Dan, Marc and Gerry stick together. If they reveal any of this to the others, they're history.

Onlyhuman..excellent post about Amy being their goat!

Would someone please throw Gerry some pity props? He was wandering from room to room last night like a ship that could find no harbor in the storm. Like a seed that could find no purchase...(Raising Arizona fans...?)

Josh just did a really nice thing. They don't like it that Gerry comes in and plops on the couch all sweaty after his workouts. Josh told him that BB told Josh not to get on that couch when he was all sweaty. He told Gerry it would cause the couch to mildew because of the fabric it's made out of. Josh told Gerry, I know you are as sweaty as I am so I thought I'd tell you before you got called in there and get in trouble for it. Gerry got up and said I better go take a shower.

Josh told Roddy afterwards that he made it all up because he wanted to tell Gerry not to get on the couch sweaty but he didn't want to hurt his feelings.

It's a small thing I know, but I thought that was so nice of Josh to tell Gerry something in a way that kept him from being singled out and embarrassed.

eww thats pretty gross..but I agree at least Josh was being nice about it..cuz I would expect him to say "Gerry get your skank ass in the shower cuz you look and smell like sh*t"..wow maybe that is even a bit mean for Josh..umm hmm maybe not now that I think about it lol

What a mature way to handle that. Josh never ceases to surprise, surprise, surprise!

Damnit - the same thing is going to happen this year that happened last year. I'm going to end up liking Josh just like I ended up liking Will.

What a nice thing for him to do. Especially considering the whole "Gerry didn't wash his hands thing".

Well, just as everyone suspected Dani and Chiara's motives with the Amy incident the other night, I suspect Josh's motives here.

Yes, it was nice of him to frame it like that. However, if he was REALLY just being a nice guy, he would have said it and left it there, not gone and told the others he made it up 'cause Gerry grossed him out.

He's just trying to keep on everyone's good side as much as possible. Alienating Gerry doesn't help him and could get him nominated if Gerry wins HOH tonight. It's all strategy and, as much as Josh irritates me, it's good strategy in this game. :)

Yay Josh...very tactful and low key. Surprisingly thoughtful behavior from the HGs is always welcome!

Could Dani actually learn something from Josh about how to problem solve? What a crazy world.

That's true Max...they have all seen Josh on a Gerry rant, so might be some ulterior motives here.<sigh>

It put one feather in his cap for me (not always easily fooled by random acts of kindness),but we will see what happens after the HOH...ever notice how nice they are to each other just before that comp? It probably would have put 2 feathers in his cap if the hadn't run to Roddy and told him about it. Now it seems more like "See what I did for us (the allience that really isn't but the only one of the 5 that doesn't know that is Josh)I got Gerry in my hip pocket."

What ever his motivation it is far better than the childish behavior of all the others. At least he faced the problem as a man to a man where as the others just giggle and whisper behind his back. I am sure they do this as much as a ploy to keep Gerry as the scape goat and all the focus off themselves.

Whatever Josh's motives, he did a nice thing, so he's got another stroke on the 'good' side of the blackboard. If he's not careful, his badboy act will fail and we'll see his human side!

I guess we all see things differently. I see it as yet another Josh moment where he got away with another white lie and fealt the need to pat himself on the back. Perhaps just seeing Gerry there grossed him out and he needed to come up with a fast one real quick. If it were sincere he would have kept it to himself. Just like Will from last year I'm not a sucker about Josh as well. I didn't care for Will from the beginning. I NEVER thought he had a brilliant plan! He got very lucky! Nicole was an emotional wreck but she controled that game right from the beginning. She even made him her b#tch! I still think he won based on Jealousy of some sore losers ( Hey Kent whats up?) and so my feelings about Josh reamins the same throughout the duration of this show. He's pathetic!

I thought the sweaty couch story was an excuse for Josh to talk with his secret co-hort Gerry. He was being nice to Gerry because they're working together. They don't want the rest to know, so each has to come up with explanations for talking with the other. When they talk strategy, the others will just think that they're being "civil" to each other. They may not have talked strategy during the sweaty couch exchange but they're building a cover. A slip cover?
