In discussing, with Jason, who to nominate this week. Gerry feels that Amy is a given and that she will be voted out. He even suggested that you put her up against Roddy because it would be funny for him to be up three weeks in a row. I really thought that he had a better handle on which way the wind was blowing in the house.

Ark, I think this is one thing Dani is right about. Gerry spends all his time listening to himself and thinking about what he would say next that he has no clue what is going on around him.

Maybe he's just intentionally trying to make it seem like he is out of the loop. He told Danielle she needed HOH this week which tells me that he knows someone is going after Danielle. I doubt he thinks Amy is Danielle's biggest concern.

Gerry is either playing the game very very well, or he is going to ride his cluelessness right to the finals.

The others should recognize him as a complete non-threat.

And maybe he threw that out there about it being funny if Roddy got put up 3 times in a row so he could vote him out. He did say in the DR last night that Roddy needed to go that he was the other alphamale. Last night, I thought for sure Gerry was evicting Roddy out.

Except Gerry promised Amy he'd vote out Chiara. So far, except for the first veto, Gerry's kept his word no matter how tempting it was not to do so.

Yeah I think he's playing dumb more than really being dumb. But we'll see...

He is pushing very hard to get rid of Amy. Now he is saying that he thinks that Marcellas is not happy about being gay and it is a problem because society looks down on gays. With Amy gone Marcellas will be a better person because gays prefer to be around straight people of the opposite sex.

He is not connected with either allience so why should he spill anything to Jason? I think he is playing the "I don't know what's going on" card. It makes sense that Amy is the one he would target it's an easy excuse, she was allowed back after eviction and it isn't fair to the rest of them. The same reason he tells Jason putting up Roddy 3 weeks in a row would be a hoot. Pretending it's not personal is how he's getting his point across. He knows Roddy is the alpha, he admitted it last night on the show. He also knows that the others know Roddy is the alpha. He can't step up and show his male dominance while Roddy is still in the house.

How would Jerry know what everyone else thinks? When has any one of them actually told him what they are doing? I'm sure he has seen the different alliances but doesn't have a handle on exactly which people are in which alliances. I think he probably thinks Jason is actually in with Roddy not Danielle. Dani has been really good at working behind the scenes so that their alliance hasn't shown up until this past week.
Anyway, doesn't matter, it looks like it's going to be Roddy and Amy. Hmmm...wonder if Marc would take Amy off the block if he won POV? That would make things interesting. Although I'm sure no one wants to win POV unless it would be R or A. and they could really screw things up too.

personally I think Gerry really does like MArci..well he feels like his mentor and does NOT like it that Amy takes up so much of Marci's time. The word jealousy flits through my mind.

Let us not miss the fact that Gerry did NOT give his word re the veto. He said he "probably wouldn't use it" and then said he wanted to win veto so he could have the record of getting it three times.

I felt all along he should do Roddy /Amy but now I think maybe Dani may be right to worry about Gerry

It seems to me that every single week (starting w/ Roddy), the HOH pulls Gerry into the room for a private conversation. Gerry allows himself to be "used" for his vote as a guarentee that he isn't even nominated. Staying off the block is a sure way to avoid eviction. Winning POV (whether it is used or not) is another way to stay off the block that same week (if POV is used, you cannot be the replacement nominee). I think Gerry is playing a smart game!

Gerry and Danny are the only ones not going up for eviction this week that have never been put up, and might not even get put up next week.

Danny is doing it from making everyone think she is their best friend in the house. Gerry is getting by from looking clueless, and as no threat to anyone. It would not shock me at all to see those two in the finals at this point. I should point out that if that happens the last week or two is going to be pretty boring.

Gerry was right, Marc does play better without Amy. She is his pal and diverts his attention from the game. If not for Amy Josh would have been gone week 2. If not for Amy Roddy would have been gone this week. I agree I think Gerry is playing the game quite well. He used the pov and now every HOH makes a deal with him not to use it if he gets it. How dumb is that?

I do not have an uncanny hatred of Gerry and I pretty much quoted him verbatim. Gerry actually said that he worked with gays a lot in acting etc and he thought that Marcellas was not happy being gay. That is what he said. He also said that gay men were happier being around straight people of the opposite sex.. I did not lie and I actually resent your mentioning my name in your post. If you have something to say to argue a point please do not personalize what someone posts as evidence of their hatred of someone.

I would ask anyone else who saw the conversation to deny that Gerry said that Marcellas was not happy being gay. I have tried hard to stay away from argumentative posts but I cannot be quiet when faced with a direct bash.

maris, i dont know exactly who you are speaking to but i can vouch that Gerry DID say that!

Gerry did say that about Mar. Sometimes a little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing (I mean Gerry of course). Maris, thought your post was very objective.

it looks like the post was deleted or they took out what they said. I just want it to be clear that while I do not like Gerry I do not make things up.

:)Makes us all look like we are talking to the air, huh? Anyway to the thread topic. I think Gerry's focus is on Gerry and he is just attempting to divert any attention from himself and a possible nomination by Jason. Think he really like Roddy too.

Gerry wasn't very good at reading Jason's meaning and Jason was too obscure in communicating. If Gerry had just said I won't use the veto on an Amy - Roddy nomination he probably would't be up this week . He has no alliance and has slid through each week by ageeing not to pose a threat. An unfortunate way to have to play but up till now it has worked. Am afraid he had to be the Alpha in his dealings with Jason and he's paying the price.

Gerry has always been jealous of Amy and Marcellas's relationship. He admitted this to Marcellas a few weeks back.
