Lauren was smiling as Rachel walked out.

But Rachel and Ava did have a final 2, so at some point there would have been trust.. But the grabbing was a bit much.. On the other hand this is a very touchy huggy group.
And it was odd to ask for volunteers, then pick Vince who really didn't volunteer.
And the unfair part about the HOH doesn't include Keanu, who wouldn't have been playing this week.

THis elimination: It probably is exactly what it appears to be BUT a small part of me is still not buying it.
Very Unlike Racheal to totally panic and utterly fail at a game/competition. Name one other time she failed (not just didn't win but was a total disaster at it) so miserably at a competition, and she has played in many competitions. This comp was done in Reindeer Games, surely Racheal saw that so this wasn't even new to her. Was it set up and staged to appear this way? Is there something that BB is still hiding from us, since this is an anniversary season?

I've thought of that, too. But how would bb guarantee that Rachel would even have been picked to play?

I call it a lot of bad and overly dramatic acting on everyone’s part. Rachel even had her little speech planned. I don’t buy any of it. Planned for her to go. Maybe not planned who would get hoh, but the rest was so overly dramatic

Here's the clip of her doing the maze. I don't think she threw it. Now, I could see bb tightening something up to make it harder to spin the wheel. She was really out of breath in that wheel. Rachel was on that exercise bike every day. She was in shape.

I thought Rachel by listening to Morgan trying to explain the maze to her figured it wouldn’t be that hard. Sometimes having verbal help doesn’t help at all. It seemed to me, that Rachel started slow, like Morgan said, then started to panic when she couldn’t seem to get the ball to go anywhere. Then, she started moving the puzzle too fast, getting no where. Seemed like she had real tears at the end. She was too cocky thinking she was in control, but she, flat out, couldn’t figure out the puzzle even if they had given her an hour. So, it really didn’t matter was order Rachel was, I think she wouldn’t have finished the puzzle, even with another minute.

I totally agree and you could see on her face when Taylor was explaining the rules about the maze she was pre panicing. Yanking Ava across the house into the storage room was a bad look. This was out of her control and those who are saying this was planned etc. not happening. Her sore loser speech to the Hgs when she was walking out the door sealed her demise. This comp wasn't for her.

Put on the feeds 0700 EST and got to watch Morgan and Vince stop gaming and say good night.
Vince: "love you"
Morgan rolls over and puts on her blanket "love you too"
Vince: you didn't say that with feeling"
Morgan: "love you" saying it a little louder.
Vince: "you didn't even look me in the eyes when you said that",
Morgan: mumbles something and giggles
Both : good night
I can't tell if this is junior high or mommy and son. It's so freaking odd.

Ava could’ve/should’ve yanked her wrist away from Rachel, and told her to “LET GO!” or stopped in her tracks (like a toddler does they don’t want to leave a preferred activity… their legs go limp, like wet noodles). Everyone keeps saying “she’s from New York” as a reason she does/says things, why didn’t she bring out her inner “Nee Yorker?”
Remember when Rachel forced her way in to being Keanu’s partner in a comp by linking elbows and telling him they would compete as a pair? He seemed a tad annoyed, but also he was honored that she picked HIM, and he was flattered, which is the way win over someone like Keanu… he also should have said “no, I want ____ as my partner for this comp.” I blame EVERYONE! But mostly Vince and I need him off of my screen!

Someone said here a while back (don’t remember who or what thread) that for all the hype around Rachel being a legend and all, her forte was never strategy or social game. It was that she could pull out comps to save herself when she needed to. I think it showed early on when was crying in the bathroom about losing a comp, that she was facing the reality that she wasn’t the comp beast she once was. That caused her to panic when it didn’t just click into place with this maze. As for her speech leaving, I’m sure she has had that cued up before even coming in the house. She is always looking for that iconic moment.

Whether you are a Rachel fan or not I just don't see the big crime of grabbing Ava's arm. Everyone in the house should have gone into "survival mode" at the elimination announcement. Sorry to say Ava over reacted after the competition by trashing Rachel non stop including calling Rachel the "c" word. Completely uncalled for. Ava is a sore winner. Ava is still there and Rachel is gone after 60 days of playing the game as the result of a poorly conceived twist. I have no doubt Rachel will finish out the game as she is supposed to do. Can't say the same for this house full of losers.

Hwest agree  . This is the poorest excuse for BB players ever, except Vince who is playing everyone in that house.
Ava has become a catty little HG since her HOH was over. I liked her alot for the way she handled her HOH but since then she just talks trash and says "what will be will be" She picks up the language of other HG (Mickey, Ashley, Will) and states she "Prayed about it" when earlier she acted as if she was not a believer.
Morgan could be a great player if she had not attached herself to Vinnie. She has been totally blind to his faults and he actively attempts to sabotage her.
Keanu, even when it is put in his face, still prefers to blame females for his woes. Keanu blamed Morgan for telling Racheal about him trying to get her on the block during Vinnie HOH. Keanu is now blaming Kelly for telling Lauren that Keanu would put her on the block when it was....once again.........Vinnie who told Lauren. Again Keanu can only be loyal to one's who have the penis even when that penis has deceived him over and over again.
Will......acts like he is at a resort and he is the guy behind the "help" booth. He ummhumms and talks a bit to other HG when they come to him. No game what so ever.
Kelly, well she is weird. Hiding dead bugs in the house and putting things in other peoples drinks. SHe can win BBBB but what else has she done?
Lauren, please take a public speaking class cause girl no one has that long to wait on you to complete a sentence or have a thought.

The only one that could have got away with the arm/shirt whatever pull across the house would have been Lauren. Ava would have put Keanu's head on a stake if he did that to her.
From the moment the HGs walked back into the house after Tyler's comp instructions Rachel tried to strong arm the others. It was unorganized chaos mixed with panic, mixed with confusion. Just a bad look for Rachel, when she doesn't get her way it goes south for her. Stupid twist but there is no reason she couldn't do the puzzle, she just couldn't. She will man handle jury, so there's that.

Time for Will to test out the lounge chairs by the jury house pool.
They need to end this letting the HGs sleep all day or whenever they want. Make all the beds murphy beds and hit a switch and flip them back into the wall at the same time in the a.m. HGs in them or not. They'll learn fast.

If they didn't stay up until 3 or 4 a.m., they would be able to wake up in the morning. Will and Kelley have been the first to get into their beds at night, and they have the least trouble getting up after the wake-up call.

Rachel has a very aggressive personality and behavior. Just because Keanu and Ava didn’t have an over the top reaction to Rachel’s aggressiveness doesn’t excuse Rachel’s obnoxious behavior. It just means Keanu and Ava were trying to stay calm and not overreact.

Worldtraveller, I completely agree with your assessment of what happened the minute they walked in the house. It was clear Rachel immediately panicked and proceeded to aggressively man handle Ava. And I believe because she couldn’t control everyone, she panicked doing the puzzle.
If It would have been Keanu who acted that way and handled Ava that way, people here, the internet, all the podcasters would have lost their minds! There would have been a demand he be pulled from the house, a demand he lose his job. They would have had his head on a chopping block!
Ava has been catty from day one. I’ve never been a fan because of her strange behavior. Especially after she completely over reacted and went all holier than thou when Keanu dared to ask her if she was going to read the prompter.
Rachels speech was ridiculous and eye rolling! Her ego is so obnoxious!
