I remember this past week someone saying, "If the houseguests do not get Roddy out now, I am rooting for him to take it all because no one else deserves it!" I'm kind of feeling that way now! And will feel even more that way if Amy doesn't nominate him!

DDR1135-- ORD is Operation Revolving Door, a plan the houseguests came up with to send whoever returned right back out. But then, the person returning (Amy) won HoH so ORD is moot!

Unless they immediately boot her at the first available opportunity, which of course would be when her reign as HOH is over. They can still do this if they are willing. However, at present it wouldn't be in the Danielle/Jason duo's best interest. They can use her to whittle away Roddy/Chiara/Gerry. But when it gets down to Marcellas, things'll get interesting.

Hermione - my closet-fan boyfriend feels the same way you do about Roddy - I'm still sticking to my guns however, and rooting for Jason or Lisa - we have many a debate about it though!

I actually kind of like Roddy. Will I be stoned for saying that? I think he is playing a good game and I really think he is a pretty good person at heart. He so rarely says anything ugly about people, at least not compared to the others. I think he and Dani are the most manipulative as far as the game goes, but I don't like how Dani trash talks people as if she is so righteous.

I like Lisa too, so much more now that Eric is gone. I feel like she never showed herself when he was around and now we are learning who she is.

I can't wait to see who Amy nominates. How Roddy plays it no matter who is on the block is going to be interesting!!

Hermoine, you may not be in a majority, but I haven't seen much stoning 'round here. Be careful in the Morning Brunch though, I've been known to hurl beignets at a certain feline ...

I pray Amy hears what roddy is saying. It was laughable how chiarra made a beeline for amy right after she won hoh. Go amy. we are pulling for you. Roddys whining is a joke. They have been on a month long vacation themselves? This isnt survivor here. They are fed and living in an air conditioned house with a pool and a hot tub.

I was listening to that covo between Chiara and Amy.

I found it very ironic when Chiara was talking about Josh and said something like: "You know Josh and his lies/the way he is, if he was still here he would have been all over you, right away, telling you everything, lying to you."

I had to laugh, because that is precisely what Chiara was doing. After awhile I couldn't even listen, even though I knew I should to understand what chi was lying about or not.

Wasn't Roddy who said "When we see the tapes....". The poor chap will be "so annoyed" when he finds out that just two days prior to Josh eviction he was the one to go.

Josh knows it now (although he received plenty of hints in the house)and thanks to Julie he may be still agonizing of what went wrong. Oh Marcellas, why couldn't you stay out of it...

Anyway, Amy by now should know who didn't want her in the house. I hope she'll put up those two.

Maybe Roddy was afraid of where the suction cups on the squid would go

I'm not sure Amy even knows the score though, was the 5-2 ever uttered by JC when she said Amy, you are the one(PP)..... last night while Eric and Amy stood by the steps. Other than that moment, there'd be no chance for any HG to find out. Wasn't it life and instant? (It was fun to see Kiki faked her excitement, heehee)

I agree with a lot of the thoughts in this thread. I do think Rod counted on ORD a lot as well as hoping for Jas/Dan/Ger to win and do his dirty work. Maybe last week of stringing Josh and Kiki along did take great toll out of him, his judgment is muddled!
I was one of those who thought "Rod deserves the money if these dum-dums do not evict him this week". I was even ready to not to care about the outcome of the game any more! But after last night's show, there's no way any thing could tear me away from this show and this board now.

I just had a revelation also. Ever since the show started this season, nothing much really went the way I thought it should or the way I'd want to see, but every turn it makes the show ever more worthwhile to watch. So call me whatever--I cant think of the word right now, but I'm sure it'd be open season here, all who are much better in the language than I am would fill in)--, I'm going to not to over angst myself and just sit back relaxed and enjoy the show. Btw, at this point I'm pulling for Jas and maybe Lisa, but "Che sera, sera(?)".

That was me and the minute I saw the 5-0 vote.. I was ranting like a mad women here alone in my house... lol... AND was tickled pink thinking Eric was going back in and all the idiots who kept in their biggest threat by a unanimous vote would get picked off one by one.... and THEN - Amy won.... so I'm a little LESS gung ho now about Roddy getting the last laugh over these people.... but at this point .. I will be just as happy if Roddy screws them all over - by more manipulatino and takes this thing in the end because they ALL deserve it! They had their friggen chance to get rid of him but nooooo .... and now they want AMY to put him up??? he was JUST up - they ALL voted to keep him IN the house!


Anyhow - I would sorta like to see a Jason/Lisa finish.. or maybe a Gerry/Marc finish or something ... but I'll be all for it and totally laughing if they all get their just deserts and have Roddy/Gerry as the final two... Rod aint an idiot he knows his only chance of winning this thing now is a Roddy/Gerry final 2.

Whit4you:

This is a form of poetic justice.

They did not get Roddy when they could.
They let Amy have HOH.

I am horrified and delighted at the same time by the thought of Gerry and Roddy being the final two.
