BB17 Day 12 - The house unites against Audrey
June 29, 2015
10:00-11:00 AM: Shelli talked to Vanessa about how James made Jace believe that they were in an alliance together, yet blindsided him anyway. Vanessa said that James is capable of being really two faced and must have an alliance that he considers real in order for him to go back on the one with Jace. Shelli said that she adores James as a person but she doesn’t know if he has her back in the game. Shelli asked Vanessa for her thoughts on Liz. Vanessa said that she hasn’t talked to her much but she seems nice, though she pointed out that Liz threw Austin under the bus to Jeff even though it seemed that Liz was loyal to Austin. Meanwhile, Clay was outside telling Austin that Liz went to Jeff to stay that Austin had been throwing Jeff under the bus a lot and she is jumping ship and looking for someone to work with. Clay said that it’s best for Austin to not be seen with Liz anyway. Austin agreed that he would have to distance himself from Liz, though he said that he has to keep her close until the HoH competition takes place.
As for the upcoming eviction, Austin said that they need to get Jace to calm down because he is going to blow them up. Clay said that in a perfect world he would have Jace stay but that’s not how it works when you are not in power. Austin agreed. Clay asked Austin if he trusts Vanessa 100%. Austin said that he does. Clay said that he feels that way about Audrey and Shelli. Clay mentioned that Audrey wants to get Da’Vonne out of the house if she wins HoH. Clay said that Da’Vonne is the head of the snake and that she is working with James and Jason, so taking her out will free those two up. As for John, Austin said that he believes that John is ready to find some boys. Austin thought that he would be a potentially valuable ally. Austin also said that he sees John as a pawn that may be willing to throw Battle of the Block competitions if needed. Clay and Austin discussed that it’s hard to approach someone like John about working together, because you never know who it could get back to. Austin thought that John is someone that doesn’t know the game all that well. As for Steve, Clay said that he will never let anyone know who he is working with, which makes him nervous about talking game with him.
12:00-1:00 PM: Steve was alone in the backyard and spoke to the live feeders. He said that the veto was a short term solution to a long term problem and he has work to do before the next HoH competition. Steve revealed that he will throw the next HoH. He did not want to have to pick a side and appear to be the one creating the divide. He figured that the inside group at this point consists of James, Meg, Audrey and also included Da’Vonne and Jason to some extent. Steve thought that Jeff played a small role in it as well. Steve mentioned that it could work out well for Da’Vonne and himself that she is on the inside and he is on the outside. Steve observed that Audrey speaks with everyone, which led him to believe that she is in an alliance with everyone in the house.
Jace approached Austin and discussed that he feels that people are avoiding him. Austin said that Audrey is putting that fear in people and that’s why he is doing it. Jace said that he was dealt a bad hand it hurts him to see it. Austin said that he will secretly start trying to campaign for Jace to people that he can trust. Jace that Clay said the same thing and he believes him or else he is a really good liar. Austin said that he trusts Clay still and he feels that there is something that they are missing with someone else. Jace said that Clay had mentioned that he wants him there and that he is better for his game than Jackie is, which is true. Austin agreed and said that he will try to fight for Jace to stay but he thinks that it has to wait until Wednesday, because there are too many days left. Jace said that he knows that he can rally the votes but he needs the information to prove who is pulling the strings. Jace mentioned having a dream about who threw him under the bus. He revealed that it was Clay. Jace said that he doesn’t think that the producers want him to leave yet. Austin said that Jace could always come back and he should go out with a bang, blowing games up, then come back in a couple of weeks.
1:00-2:00 PM: Jace was in the bedroom by himself, trying to come up with a rap for his eviction night speech. Jace had a quick chat with Steve and told him that he has something planned. He said that it is not a disaster plan and he will not know about it until eviction night. Jace said that it may be able to sway the votes if he can do it right, but he does not want to tell anyone about it beforehand. Jace told Steve that he will try to rally votes in the meantime, though he is hoping that what he does will give Steve the confidence to vote for him. Steve encouraged Jace to give it a shot. Jace said that he is not going to go out like Zach, saying he is taking people out and calling them a froot loop dingus. Steve said that he is happy to hear that Jace is going to try something.
2:00-3:00 PM: Jace spoke to John and asked him if he needs the house on his side in order for John to vote for him. John said yes and that he can’t go out there and campaign for Jace. Jace understood and said that he would do that. Jace told John that his vote would mean everything to him and that John would not have to worry about him being in the game. While Jace admitted that Jackie also may not go after John, Jace pointed out that the same people that are after him will be after John if he leaves. Jace also said that he would always be a target in front of John and would be someone that could help him get further in the game. John said that’s a good point. While Jace, Shelli and Audrey were hanging out in the kitchen, talking about some past seasons of Big Brother, Shelli mentioned that in season five they had identical twins that switched of and it was crazy that nobody noticed. She explained to Jace that they took turns entering the game, swapping in the diary room, with both getting to play as individuals after about five weeks.
3:00-4:00 PM: Jace told Vanessa that he has something planned. He told her to expect something that will make her smile. Jace advised Vanessa to go up on the block as often as she can, as it is so easy to stay with the Battle of the Block. He said that the easiest way to get screwed is to get backdoored. Jace told Vanessa that he will volunteer to go up on the block every week if he happens to stay, cause that way he will at least have a fighting chance. Jace then went to talk to Audrey and Meg, telling them that he had a dream last night that he thinks was potentially a message from God, showing him who stabbed him in the back. Jace explained that he prayed to God before going to bed, asking him to show him who stabbed him in the back in a dream. Jace said that it then happened and it was very apparent. Jace said that he doesn’t think that he will call that person out and he will not say who it was. Jace told Audrey that she doesn’t have to worry about having any more confrontations with him. He said that he does not plan on blowing up any games before he leaves.
4:00-5:00 PM: Meg spoke to James about how Audrey is trying to deflect the blame for telling Jace about the song on to others. James said that he doesn’t believe anything Audrey says. James felt that Audrey has been running around the house like a saboteur and putting stuff in to people’s heads. James thought that the best plan of approach with Audrey is not to give her information anymore, waiting for the right time to take her out. Meg hoped that Liz would win the next HoH and target Audrey. James felt that Audrey was the reason behind every argument that their group has had thus far. Meg mentioned that Audrey, Clay and Shelli have some type of deal. She added that Shelli seems to have Final 3 deals with everyone. James said that he doesn’t trust Shelli, seeing as she seems to just be along for the ride. James thought that the core of himself, Meg, Jeff, Da’Vonne and Jason could beat everyone if they stick together.
James and Meg also discussed that they have trust issues with Clay as well as Audrey. They acknowledged that Clay sees Audrey as the most loyal person. They thought that something would have to happen to Clay directly in order for him to see the true Audrey. Austin talked to Liz about how annoying it is that people expect him not to talk to her at all. He mentioned that the others are playing to hard this early in the game and that all of the people that they are trying to set up will talk soon enough. Austin said that the underground movement is coming. Liz told him that they need to lay low in the grass like a cheetah and then pounce. Austin said that they can do this but they will have to be stealth even if they win HoH. He explained that backdooring Audrey is the only way to make the move.
5:00-6:00 PM: Da’Vonne told Jason that she is so glad that people are seeing what’s going on with Audrey. She said that she did not come here to be anybody’s puppet. They discussed that they have to be careful what they say to Clay, since Clay still trusts Audrey. Da’Vonne brought up that Shelli is coasting by. Jason thought that Shell is more trustworthy and easier to read than Clay. Da’Vonne said that she wants to get closer with Shelli in order to find out what she has been telling Audrey, since she always see Audrey run back to Shelli after talking to her. Jason said that there big alliance is just a ruse and that everyone is only trying to protect themselves. Da’Vonne said that she would like to take Meg deep into the game. She asked Jason if he thinks that that means that they have to take Jeff too. Jason said that they will have to for a bit. Jason then revealed that Jeff approached him about people that they should ideally try to get to the Final 4 with, though what he proposed was only good for him. Jason said that the four were Jeff, himself, Clay and Meg. Jason said that Clay isn’t getting to the Final 4 and if he does then that means that Jeff cannot get there.
6:00-7:00 PM: Austin spoke to Jeff about how people are telling them the same things about each other. Austin suggested that they start over. Jeff told Austin that he will not put him up and will not backdoor him. Austin said that he is willing to shake on that, which they then proceeded to do. Jeff told Austin that he is willing to disregard what he has heard about Austin, since he knows that it is probably not true. Jeff advised Austin to stay away from Liz, stating that it’s only because the two of them and Jace were seen as a trio. Austin questioned Jeff about Liz having thrown him under the bus. Jeff said that he has heard that. Austin then said that he heard that she did it directly to Jeff. Jeff said that he did not want to talk about it but all that Liz told him was something that he had heard days earlier. Jeff assured Austin that neither him nor Liz are on his radar, since there is someone else that is creating issues. Jeff said that he is going after that person. Austin said that they are on the same page. Both were referring to Audrey, though neither said her name. They agreed that Clay can be used as the person that brings the two of them together, since they don’t feel that comfortable naming names with each other.
After the Austin and Jeff talk broke up, Jeff spoke to James and Meg. Meg filled Jeff in on Audrey blaming Da’Vonne for having leaked the song to Jace’s side of the house. She explained that Audrey is accusing Da’Vonne of working with Liz. Jeff then filled them in on his talk with Austin. He said that it was really weird that Austin found out that Liz threw him under the bus. Jeff said that it only happened a day ago. James asked who Jeff told. Jeff said that Clay is the only person that he told that to. Jeff felt that he has to start keeping an eye on Clay, since he seems to have built a good rapport with Austin. James said that he has a feeling that Clay is playing both sides. He thought that Shelli is also involved in that due to her link to Clay.
9:00-10:00 PM: Audrey and Da’Vonne had a very quick chat in the kitchen earlier in the evening. The feeds switch to them in mid conversation. Audrey was voicing her concern about Jeff. She questioned who is going to go after Jeff if Austin is out of the house. Da’Vonne later went to Jeff and informed him that Audrey is saying that he is getting close to Meg and it is starting to make her nervous. She added that Audrey has been trying to plant the seed that Jeff and Meg are a showmance, even questioning who they should send out first between Austin and Jeff. Da’Vonne said that she told Audrey that she would rather keep Jeff, which led to Audrey questioning who would be the one take Jeff out. Jeff said that he was hoping to keep Audrey around to do some dirty work, but she keeps trying to turn their alliance on each other and they cannot have that. Jeff said that Audrey has to go. Da’Vonne then went to Meg to fill her in on what was going on.
Jeff pulled Austin aside to talk. He said that he is tired of beating around the bush. He said that his name just came up in another rumour and he needs to get Audrey out of the house. Jeff said that Audrey is the 100% reason that Jace is leaving this week. He told Austin that the two of them have had a shaky start but he promises that Austin is good if he wins HoH. Austin said that the same goes for him. Austin told Jeff that he hopes that this is not a set up. Jeff assured Austin that it is not. Austin explained that there is already an underground movement going to get Audrey out of the house. Austin told Jeff that Clay is working very closely with Audrey and may be double crossing them, as everything that you tell to Clay will get back to Audrey. They both agreed that nothing can be said to Clay about this. Jeff then spoke to Jason about making the move against Audrey. Jason said that everyone but Clay is on board with it.
Jeff brought Liz up to the HoH room to talk. Austin joined them. Jeff told Liz that one of them has got to win HoH and they have got to get rid of Audrey. Jeff said that Clay chooses Audrey over every person in the house, so they cannot talk to him about this. Liz was concerned about whether or not she could trust Jeff with this. She was also worried that Audrey would have the votes to stay. Austin said that they will not keep Audrey, since there is an underground movement against her. Austin mentioned that the revolution has begun. After Austin left, Jeff asked Liz to work on Austin for him. He said that he knows that Austin still wants him out deep down. Liz said that it’s not the case, though Jeff wasn’t buying it. Liz tried to tell him that Austin is someone that can be trusted anyway. Liz assured Jeff that she is willing to do his dirty work if she wins HoH. After talking to Liz, Jeff told Becky and John that he feels as though Audrey is always in the middle of any drama in the house. Before he could go any further, the talk was broken up. Finally, Jeff spoke to Clay and questioned why Audrey is being so weird today. Jeff revealed that someone spread a rumour about him turning on the group and he wants to find out where it came from. Jeff said that he is getting some weird vibes from Audrey and he wants Clay to keep an eye on that for him. Clay said that he hasn’t talked to Audrey yet today and that she has been sleeping all day, so he doesn’t think that she was behind it.
10:00-11:00 PM: Clay went to Audrey and asked her if someone said something about Jeff and Meg were collaborating to get people from their group out. Audrey asked where he heard that. Clay said that it came from Jeff but he doesn’t know where Jeff heard it. Audrey said that she was asleep all day and did not hear about it. Clay said that it’s very weird.
11:00-12:00 AM: Jeff told Da’Vonne that they need to use Liz and Austin to get Audrey out if they happen to win HoH. Jeff admitted that he does not trust Austin at all but felt that he may be able to manipulate Liz. Da’Vonne believes that her and Jeff are on Audrey’s radar because she knows that they have figured her out and that she cannot manipulate them. Elsewhere, Audrey told Meg that Clay was saying that Jeff heard a rumour about Jeff and Meg targeting people within the group. Audrey said that Da’Vonne had made a comment to her about how Jeff and Meg are getting close, though that is all that she has heard. Audrey revealed that she is thinking that she needs to backdoor Da’Vonne if she wins HoH. Meg questioned if there are not people that are more dangerous than Da’Vonne. Audrey said that Austin is someone that is dangerous but he is dangerous for Jeff’s game and not hers. Audrey said that the only people that she thinks would backdoor her are Da’Vonne and Jason.
12:00-1:00 AM: Clay and Meg chatted about the rumour going around the house. Clay felt that they need to stick with their group and keep re-enforicing it. Meg said that things like this keep happening which leads her to believe that there is someone in the group that is being dramatic about things. Meg said that she cannot work with someone like that. Jeff and Jace had a chat about this week’s vote. Jace told Jeff that Audrey is in Jackie’s ear and she could turn Jackie against Jeff. Jace said that he would never turn his back on Jeff if he voted for him. Jeff told Jace that Audrey is the reason that he is leaving the house. Jace asked how he knows that. Jeff explained that he had an alliance with Audrey. Jace filled Jeff in on why he feels that he cannot trust Clay. Jeff said that he doesn’t think that he can trust Clay either, since he tested him tonight and he failed. Jeff questioned Jace about whether or not he had an alliance with Audrey. Jace said yes and continually mentioned how Jeff needs him to help take over the house. Jeff explained that Austin has thrown his name under the bus and it’s tough to want to work with him. Jace said that he did that because of Audrey and that Austin is still one of the few people not with Audrey and Clay. Jace said that it’s time to start the revolution and that he will start with taking down Audrey. Jace said that he plans to have a meeting with the potential votes that he can get on Wednesday at some point. Jeff encouraged Jace to blow up the game of the person that he feels betrayed him the most.
Jeff asked Clay who he talked to about the rumour. Clay said that he asked Audrey about it and she denied knowing anything. Jeff then told Clay that Audrey is starting a lot of drama. Clay said that Jeff is going off of assumptions. Jeff said that he is not and that people are on to Audrey. Jeff said that Audrey is telling people that she is gunning for him. Jeff revealed that Audrey started the rumour and he wanted to see if she would admit it to Clay. Jeff said that he begun to have his suspicions about Audrey last night when he found out that she had leaked the song to Jace. Jeff told him that they are about to vote Audrey out and that the whole alliance is in on it except for him and Shelli. Jeff explained that the alliance did not trust Clay and Shelli with this information, but the more that they attach themselves to Audrey, the bigger threat that they become. Clay wanted Jeff to tell the group that he talked to him and he is 100% on board. Jeff and Clay discussed that they were serious about their Final 2 with each other. Clay mentioned that if Jace exposes Audrey it will give him an excuse to cut ties with her, even though he is already going to do it. In the mean time, Clay plans to deny any knowledge of the plan.
1:00-2:00 AM: Jackie interrupted the talk between Clay and Jeff. Jeff told Jackie that Jace was begging for his vote but he told Jace that he is not getting it. Jeff then told Jackie about his conversation with Clay and how the whole house is on board with going after Audrey. Jackie said that she is down for that. Jackie told Jeff to be careful about how much he tells Clay, because she cannot lose him in this game. Jeff said that this is the final test for Clay and he will strike against both Clay and Audrey if he finds out that Clay cannot be trusted. Jeff also told Jackie about the rumours going around. He said that Audrey is telling people that he is starting up a fake showmance with Meg in order to deflect attention away from Jackie. Meanwhile, Clay had made his way back to the bedroom with Audrey and Shelli. Both Audrey and Shelli were questioning Clay on everything that went down tonight. Clay was getting defensive about being questioned by them. Jeff eventually joined them and the questioning continued. Clay and Jeff lied to Audrey and Shelli about what went on.
2:00-3:00 AM: Clay, Jeff and Shelli eventually got time alone. Clay and Jeff told Shelli that Audrey has been behind every rumour and lie in the house. Clay told Shelli that the alliance is now going after Audrey and that the whole house is on board. Clay explained that if they stick with Audrey they are going down with the ship. Jeff said that he can tell by Shelli’s face that she is playing with her emotions when it comes to Audrey. Jeff said that Shelli can back Audrey if she wants but it will not help her game. Clay said that he knows that she cares about Audrey a lot but if they stay with Audrey they will be the next ones to go. Clay told Shelli that she cannot say a word about this, especially after Jeff put his game on the line by trusting them with the information. Audrey broke up the talk. Jeff later spoke to Shelli and said that she has been having suspicions of her own. She thanked Jeff for bringing the information to her. Jeff assured Shelli that he has her back and that he wants to get to the end with her and Clay. Jeff also informed the rest of the alliance that the entire house now knows about the plan to target Audrey.
3:00-4:00 AM: Jace was outside with a number of members of Audrey’s alliance, saying how happy he is that everyone is seeing the light. Jace was asking James to clear his name in front of the house and tell them that Audrey manipulated him. Audrey walked out on the conversation. James then told Jace that he will take all of the blame for Jace being on the block. Once Audrey heard that, she began whispering with people that she thinks that it would be best for everyone to tell Jace that they were all in on it and they all want him out. Audrey eventually told Jace that everybody was in on the plan. Jace said that he does not believe that and he knows that if he leaves it will be because of her. Jace told Audrey that he will let the whole house know about it too. Audrey said that everyone wants Jace out and he makes everyone feel uncomfortable. Jace told Audrey that it’s her that makes people feel uncomfortable.
Jace said that Audrey is a master manipulator and a puppet master. Audrey told Jace that he is crazy and needs to get his head checked. Jace said that she is just scared and knows that she can’t save herself. Jace pointed out that it’s scary for Audrey to know that the whole house is against her. Audrey told him that nobody is against her. Jace let Audrey know that she will be the next one out of there. After the Audrey and Jace talk broke up, Jace asked James if they can call a house meeting tomorrow. He said that Audrey needs to be outed. Jace wanted James to make it clear that Audrey manipulated him. James told Jace that they can do it, however he told Jeff right after that it’s not a good idea. James suggested that they could go to everyone beforehand and let them know that the stuff said that the meeting will be untrue. A number of the houseguests stayed up outside with Jace. They assured Jace that Audrey is leaving next regardless of whether or not Jace stays. James admitted that he clearly made a big mistake and it sucks, cause Audrey is the one that deserves to leave. They continued comparing notes. Jason asked who came up with the plan to backdoor him. Jace said that it was not him. James back him up and said that it was likely Audrey’s. Da’Vonne asked who is trying to backdoor her next week. Jason told her that it is again Audrey behind it all.
4:00-5:00 AM: Clay and Jason advised Jace to remain calm, even if Audrey comes at him again. They explained that he will not be able to get the votes if he approaches things the same way again tomorrow. Clay also told his alliance that they need to be careful not let Audrey know that they are on to her, otherwise Audrey will join the other side and come at them. Clay went inside to comfort Audrey. Audrey told him that she feels as though Da’Vonne and Jason are the ones behind this. She began counting the votes for if either of them tried to backdoor her. Clay told her to stop since nobody is after her. When Clay rejoined the others, he told them Audrey is talking about the need to backdoor Da’Vonne next week. Da’Vonne was not surprised. Clay, Da’Vonne, Jason and Shelli discussed that Jace still needs to be the one to go. Jace had been asking them where he stands. They all told him that he will need to talk to everyone else and plead his case, since they don’t have enough votes on their own.
