BBCAN4 Day 17
March 13, 2016
10:00-11:00 AM: Cassandra and Tim spoke in the bedroom. Cassandra said that Loveita was asking her if she thinks that she is staying and has the votes. Tim told Cassandra that Loveita is gathering information and she should not tell her anything. Cassandra said Loveita then told her that she has the numbers. Cassandra said Loveita then told her that she made it clear in her nomination speech who the target is, so it is her. Cassandra believed that she had votes from Jared, Kelsey, Raul, Mitch, Joel, Tim and possibly Nikki. Tim felt that Loveita would align with whoever is best for her game at that particular time. Tim felt that it was dangerous because she could gather information. He said that he does not like self righteous people, adding that you cannot go around saying that you don’t play dirty and then play dirty. Cassandra asked if she should be worried. Tim said yes. Cassandra told Tim that Dallas informed her that he will not be using the PoV. Tim told Cassandra that they need to put Loveita back in her place next week and send her home. Cassandra asked if they can trust Joel. Tim said 100%. Cassandra pointed out that she doesn’t want something like Jared or Kelsey going up, cause then her votes are gone. Cassandra mentioned that Loveita will get such bad karma for doing this, since she was her only friend last week. Tim felt that Loveita would now be with Christine, Dallas, Maddy and Ramsey. He said Loveita needs to go on the block with one of those four. Tim suggested talking to Phil in order to explain that Dallas wants the brothers out and Christine would be a number on his side to help him do that. Cassandra said Loveita wants to have all of the power and think that everything is her idea. Tim agreed and said he doesn’t trust a word that comes out of her mouth.
11:00-12:00 PM: Tim told Nikki that he doesn’t want to talk any more game with Loveita, because Loveita will use the information to tell the others. Tim said that he can only trust Joel, Nikki and Mitch at this point. He hoped that the brothers, not Loveita, would be the ones that make them five strong. Tim felt Loveita was planning to play with whoever she could offer herself to in a given week, changing sides. Nikki questioned how she would stick around by doing that. Tim said people are afraid of her. Tim figured that Cassandra and Kelsey would go after Loveita, which is what they want. Tim said the brothers apparently approached Mitch about working together, which is a good thing. Joel and Loveita spoke in the HoH room. Joel said that Cassandra is talking as if she is okay but he thinks that she knows that her time is coming. Joel said that he feels bad for her because he has to make her feel safe but doesn’t want to overdo it. Loveita said that Kelsey is a troublemaker and she cannot stand her. Loveita believes that Kelsey and Raul are “leading the ship”. Joel asked if Dallas would trust them. Loveita said yes but he also trusts Jared and just goes where the wind blows. Loveita told Joel that perhaps Dallas should use the PoV and they should backdoor a big player. Loveita said that it would be cool but they would have two angry people left in the house. Joel questioned if a big move like that is made and they get Jared, Kelsey or Raul out, would those three think that it was Dallas’ doing and target him. Loveita said that they would have to see it as Dallas masterminding something and her not having any other options. Joel pointed out that the two remaining ones would be desperate and feel all alone. Loveita asked who the stronghold of the group is. Joel said Jared, calling him the most level headed one. Joel said that he is more trustworthy than the others but it the glue holding them together. Joel figured that taking out the leader could cause the others to scramble. Loveita said that Kelsey would gun for her and Cassandra would still be in the house. Loveita said that she could talk to Cassandra and tell her that she needs to commit to working with them and not being a fake phoney if they take her off of the block.
12:00-1:00 PM: Tim told Phil that they need to talk today. Tim said that he is unhappy that Loveita is working with Dallas. He said that Loveita refused to put Dallas up originally and is also refusing to nominate anyone from Jared’s side, so Dallas said to put the brothers up. Tim said that Christine would work with the other side and have a solid group with Loveita, Dallas, Maddy and Ramsey. Phil mentioned hearing that Cassandra is coming after him. Tim said that it is not true. Tim then suggested an alliance between the brothers, Joel, Mitch, Nikki and himself. Phil was concerned that Joel and Loveita are too tight for that to work, though Tim suggested that their relationship could be falling apart. In the bedroom, Christine told Jared that her main goal is to get Loveita out. Jared suggested that she is completely by herself and it makes her useless at this point. Christine said she does not want to leave before Loveita. Jared asked Dallas if the plan to backdoor the brothers out is off. Dallas said he tried everything that he could but Loveita would not go for it. Dallas thought the brothers, Joel and Loveita are now together, because every good point that he brought up just bounced off of Loveita. Jared said the brothers are Loveita are the two that he does not trust. He said he cannot get a read on them because they will not give any information out. Jared suggested that they would have to nominate Joel and the brothers in order to ensure that the brothers go. Christine and Dallas agreed. Jared figured that Joel would understand. Jared told Dallas that the two of them can go after each other all they want but they should make sure that they get the brothers out before they do. Dallas agreed and said that nobody knows where the brothers are at. Jared said those two play nice with everyone.
1:00-2:00 PM: Loveita told Joel that she thinks that people are going to start targeting her. Joel said that there are some people that have her back and others that are unhappy with her decision, though that is to be expected. Joel asked her who she feels most comfortable with and wants to work with. Joel said that he personally trusts Mitch. Loveita said that she wants to work with Mitch but he doesn’t seem to want to be in alliance. Loveita asked if they can trust Nikki and Tim in that mix. Joel told her that he believes that they can be trusted. Loveita asked if they should backdoor someone or leave it the same and let Cassandra go. Both Joel and Loveita agreed to leave it the same. Minutes later, Loveita brought up that she could backdoor Kelsey and play it off as though it was her plan all along. Joel thought that they should talk with all of the people in the middle later on.
2:00-3:00 PM: Joel and Mitch talked over their options. Joel said that he is more comfortable working with Mitch, Nikki and Tim over Cassandra. Mitch asked what Joel thinks about getting someone else on the block. Joel told him that getting Kelsey out would be the best move if the PoV is used. Mitch agreed. Mitch was concerned that they will end up in a position where they have to vote Cassandra out, which would cause them to lose the trust of Jared, Kelsey and Raul in the process. He figured that they either needed to get one of those three out or stick with them. Mitch explained that they are not the main targets for those three right now, so alienating them in the vote would not be a good move. Mitch pointed out that Kelsey and Raul are likely still going to be after Loveita even if the nominations remain the same. He said that Loveita is an easy target just because those people will not want to make more enemies. They agreed that Christine is unlikely to join their side at any point and that she is likely to target Loveita. They ultimately decided that it would be best to speak with Nikki and Tim to see what they are thinking. At that point, they could then speak to Loveita and show her that she has the four of them backing her to make whichever move they decide is best.
Phil told Tim that they need to make sure that Cassandra is the one that comes off of the block if the PoV is used. Tim said that he does not expect the PoV to be used. The two then discussed making their own alliance out of the people in the middle. Both expressed their frustration with Loveita. Phil still had concerns that Loveita would nominate the brothers. He vowed to make it so clear who he is going after that nobody would vote him out of the house. Phil asked Tim if he would vote Cassandra out over him. Tim said that he absolutely would and he does not get why everyone thinks that his vote is locked in with Cassandra. Tim let Phil know that both he and Nikki would like to work with the brothers. Tim explained that they really trust the brothers, think that they are nice people and they would be happy with them winning the game. Tim pointed out that they are strong players as well. Phil said that they may end up splitting up, which would give them two votes. Joel then made his way into the room and broke up the conversation.
4:00-5:00 PM: Tim mentioned that he liked Loveita more when she was on the bottom last week. Cassandra and Phil let Tim know that Loveita was even worse than this during her first HoH reign. Cassandra said that she is giving Loveita such attitude because she was her only friend last week and yet Loveita nominated her. Cassandra said she thinks that she has the votes this week, as she only needs six and she should have Jared, Kelsey, Raul, Joel, Mitch and Tim. Tim said that it’s good that Cassandra is staying, because he does not want Christine to join Dallas’ side. Joel gathered all of the houseguests in the living room. He said that today would have been his brother’s 35th birthday but he passed away in October 2011. Joel shared a bit about his brother. The houseguests then sang happy birthday for him and had a moment of silence.
5:00-6:00 PM: Dallas, Joel, Loveita and Maddy headed out to the backyard to watch “Allegiant”. Dallas won the reward by winning the PoV. He chose to bring those three with him. Meanwhile, Jared, Kelsey and Raul chatted in the bedroom. Kelsey asked what they are going to do about Cassandra. Jared said that they are going to keep her. He felt that Cassandra would be a number for them but knew that it would be pissing off Loveita. Both Jared and Kelsey said that they are not concerned about upsetting Loveita. In the HoH room, Phil told Nick that it would take everything in him not to throw Loveita up on the block if they win HoH. He said that everyone would want to see that happen too. Phil figured that it would be best to nominate two others, then backdoor Loveita if they get the opportunity to.
9:00-10:00 PM: Dallas and Maddy spoke to Loveita about making a big move. Dallas said that the brothers are fine. He suggested taking out Jared, the person that he personally thinks is going to win the game. Dallas pointed out that they would only have Kelsey, Mitch and Raul left on that side. Dallas said that they have the numbers and can flip things upside down this week. Loveita said that they can talk shortly. While they waited, Maddy and Dallas discussed that it sounds as though Loveita is entertaining the idea of making a big move. Maddy said that she knows for a fact that they have the votes to send Jared home. The two spoke to Loveita again. Maddy pointed out that they would win the game over Cassandra at the end, so it’s not the worst thing to have her stay. Maddy also thought that the others could see through Cassandra and know that she is untrustworthy. Loveita said that Cassandra is a really good social player and could talk her way back into the group. Dallas mentioned that he quickly spoke to Christine and asked her if she would be on board with voting Jared out. Dallas said that Christine felt that it would be a great move. He suggested that they need to take out the other side for Sharry. Loveita said that they can talk more later.
Loveita asked Tim to talk. She told him about Dallas wanting to use the PoV in order to make a big move and take out Jared. Tim said that there would be no other alliance if Jared is gone. He suggested that the only reason that Jared’s side has any power is because of Jared himself. Loveita briefly considered the option of targeting Raul. Tim said that Raul does not offer any strategic advice to Jared, so his loss would only be one from a numbers standpoint. Loveita was also concerned that people would not vote Jared out, though Tim assured her that the whole house would vote him out due to the physical threat that he is. Loveita said that Jared has done a lot of wrong to her but for some reason she does not want to put him on the block. She felt that it was best to leave the nominations the same. Loveita planned to use her candy to run through the various scenarios. She reiterated that Cassandra needs to go. Tim expected that she would be staying. He said that he does not want her to stay but he does not want Dallas and Maddy’s group to gain Christine. As for their own group, Tim thought that it may be best to wait another week to form something. They agreed that Joel and Nikki are locks to be in it. Loveita was feeling a bit unsure about Mitch now. Tim mentioned Ramsey as another possible option.
10:00-11:00 PM: Joel and Cassandra spoke in the have-not room. Joel asked what he needs to do in order to get Jared, Kelsey and Raul to trust him. Cassandra said that the trust will be there once they see that he voted to keep her. Joel pointed out that Christine has yet to campaign to him, so he has no reason to keep her in the house. Joel discussed the ongoing talks about creating a group out of those that are in the middle. He was concerned that nobody has stepped up and united them yet. Cassandra said that she is willing to do it. Joel said that he trusts Nikki the second most after Cassandra. That led Cassandra to suggest a four person alliance between the two of them, Nikki and Tim.
11:00-12:00 AM: Dallas met up with Loveita to discuss her thoughts on backdooring Jared. Loveita said that her nominations would be pointless and she would have both Cassandra and Christine after her. Dallas assured her that he would get Christine to have her back. He counted out the votes to evict Jared as Maddy, Christine, Ramsey, the brothers, Joel, Nikki, Tim and himself. Loveita said that she will sleep on the decision. Dallas told her that it would be the backdoor of the century. He added that Jared would be the odds on favourite to win the game if Vegas had odds.
