Roddy can't get a handle on Amy's mood right now. He is confused. I don't think he is used to being played like a violin.

Amy is very fidgety.. I wonder if Roddy's picking up on how different she's acting towards him. She was pretending to be real excited about the massage, but she's not being herself for sure.

I think Amy is trying to seduce Roddy in the way that he has been seducing everyone else.

Go Amy!

Roddy was totally working her a while ago. Roddy is trying to get Amy angry like he did with Joshy. This guy is so transparent, the hg must notice this also. While trying to tick Amy off he is playing the "nice" guy to everyone else. Will the hg's fall for it?

I'm sorry RodFans, I just don't like how he plays the game. It seems evil....

I do not know what kind of man Roddy is outside the house, but watching him and listening to him talk to the other HGs gives me the eeriest feeling. There is something so dark about the way he tells each HG almost exactly the same thing. He seems to rationalize everything he has done and misconstrue what they have done and if the HG he is talking to does not deny or call him on the misinformation he seems to take "no comment" as their agreement with his version.

Buzz, eerie is right. He just flat out scares me. Have you also noticed that Roddy just can't seem to have fun? He doesn't laugh, he doesn't get really excited about anything. Everything is just a little too controlled.

Roddy does so laugh and have fun! You must not watch the feeds much. He is a very personable guy--its only when he starts thinking about the game (and thats often) that he gets that wonderful scary look in his eyes!

I know "it is only a game," but this guy doesn't seem to be playing - he is just too consistent in his words and actions - its like he really believes what he is saying! To really play the game well, I think you have to adapt to situations, relate differently to different people. He's not doing that - it really seems that this might be his real personality.

And, yes, Marcellasfan - absolutely no sense of humor. I can't even imagine this guy laughing at himself. Maybe its an act, but maybe he is just a "piece of work."

One thing that irritated me beyond belief was Roddy's announcement that Chiara left her woobie for him to "apologize" to him for the way she acted.

And here I was thinking that Chiara left her sacred childhood security blanket with Roddy as a gesture to show how much she cared about him.

Roddy really has taken Chiara's heart (and woobie) and stomped on them. He has also taken to blaming Chiara, Josh, Gerry and Tonya for everything except global warming.

Marcellasfan and Buzzelda, have you all missed the "frolicking" (that doesn't look like it's spelled right, but you know what I mean.) The water polo? Duck ball? Have you missed his constant funny voices and dry-humored remarks? We are talking about RODDY here, right? The Roddy I see is hillarious. (Almost as funny as the Marcellas and Amy show, but not quite.)

Clio, I guess I've missed that part. I don't have the live feeds, so I have to depend on the transcripts and the show. I wish they would show a little more of a fun Roddy if that's the case. What I mostly see is him working people with such ferocity.

(I still think he's creepy, but I'll give you the fun-guy thing since I don't have the feeds ;))

Marcellasfan, you poor thing :), you haven't LIVED until you've seen Roddy, Jason and Marcellas "frolicking." (Although I get the impression that Roddy doesn't do it as much as the other two, they did it the other night and Roddy confessed to not being a "day-time frolicker" which is when Marc. and Ja usually do it.) Let me give you a little mini transcript.....

Ok, everyone's in the hot tub. All of a sudden Roddy, Jason and Marc. run at full speed, yelling and screaming and do cannon balls into the pool (Marc. doesn't do the cannon ball, he's scared :) ) Then just as quickly, they run to the outdoor shower, you know the one with the chain? And they dance around under that. Then, (because they're freezing at this point) they run even faster and climb back into the hot tub. This goes on for two or three times, usually at Roddy or the girls provoking, someone will just yell "FROLIC!!!!" It's like a Chinese fire drill only with water involved. Roddy's doing it like he's a man possessed, Jason's the "freezing guy following the man possessed" and Marcellas ......... well, he's just being Marcellas. :)

Anyway, I agree, I wish they would show it on TV too. It is SOOOOOOOO funny!

And they're probably not showing how much Roddy tries to lighten the mood in the house and make everyone feel good (sometimes he goes a little overboard like he has been today, I'm almost embarrassed for him) but at least he tries.

I didn't want to start a new thread. I'd just like to reverse the names.

Amy just told Roddy, that he'd make a good cult leader.

First time I've laughed like that at my computer for at least several weeks.

I love the way Amy is talking "code" to Roddy and he does not get it. His massive ego will not let him hear what she is really saying.

It is now 2:38 and Roddy is still trying to convince Amy that she will be going back on her word if she doesn't use POV to save him.
BOY OH BOY!

Reading the A & R conversation on the hammock was scary. Amy is so out of her depth trying to converse with him. He doesn't let her finish her thoughts and takes her points and steers her away from where she was going. I agree that Roddy definitely has his fun side, he can be a sardonic ray of sunshine. But his mind manipulations disturb me. It's just like Marc said - like watching Satan holding a brain damaged lamb. Amy was so confident about this conversation, she rehearsed it for an hour. Then on the hammock, she's stumbling and backpedaling. It's painful to see.

Not1worry, why would his mind manipulations disturb you? Dani and Marc have been mind-manipulating this girl since she walked through the door. This is Roddy's strategy (to out think and talk) they all know it, they've all commented on it and so Amy decides to play him and is out of her league. She needs to get up and go back to Marc and Dani for further instructions.

I am sick and tired of everyone feeling sorry for a grown woman (I felt the same way about Chiara) who knows something is way over their heads and then when they get hurt crying "I just didn't know". She does know and she can get up and walk away at any time. She likes the attention and she will stay there as long as he talks to her.

Amy's best bet is to say as little as possible to Roddy and to stay away from him. He is really working her because she is his last approach. How can Roddy NOT be like this outside of the house? Listening to Roddy is like listening to pure verbal abuse, but it is so subtle that there is a fine line. I wonder how much of this is his real personality? He is someone I would NOT want to meet.

If they all think roddy is the devil and amy is weak why do they let him be alone with her for hours at a time before pov. This gang is really dumb and I dont understand why they work so hard to get roddy out and then give him wiggle room. Its like the old batman show where they would always leave batman and robin alone when they were on some killing machine and then they would escape. Instead of just staying there and making sure the plan worked. If roddy escapes again its because they are stupid enough to let him prey on Amy for hours at a time alone.

Why do they let her talk to him? To get her out next.

From Dani's standpoint, Roddy is gone this week. Then, to keep her alliance with Lisa and Jason going, next week has to be Amy or Marcellus. She can work with Marcellus, but Amy does not have the smarts or maturity. So, they need to drive a wedge between Marcellus and Amy (Marcellus is NOT all that consistent in his thoughts). By driving the wedge, they can get Amy out next week. Then Marceluus the week after. Then it is down to just Dani, Lisa and Jason. Lisa then goes. Then it is the final two...Dani and Jason, as they planned from the very beginning.

in, and if, your last scenerio comes to pass - Lisa only goes in the Dani/Jason/Lisa alliance if she doesn't win HOH, and she could win HOH, too.

This is why I'd like to see Roddy go... so we can have a new game. I for one am tired of the 'get Roddy out' plot.

Still some luck and chance yet, it will be any of them to win if Roddy goes NOW.
