Jessie Is Convinced Jeff Has The Power

Although Natalie and Chima disagree, Jessie is convinced that Jeff has the mystery power. Chima's point is that even if he does, he won't use it unless he's up.

I can't wait for Thursday.

Jeff and Jessie Play Nice

Not ten minutes after Princess Chima was complaining that Jeff hadn't been up to kiss her...um, ring...Jeff finally did pop his head into the HOH. Jessie basically made it clear that he's to vote out Russell, and that if he doesn't it's then clear that he and Jordan are against Chima.

Jeff does a good job of defusing the conversation, veering into Jeremy Piven's appearance and the boo-boo on his toe. All three are now just making small talk.

Princess Chima's Reign: Night 1

I have to apologize for not providing updates last night, as the house was up almost all night jabbering about their place in the house.

But I honestly couldn't deal with the feeds last night. Chima's cackle was already annoying me even before the CBS broadcast signed off, and when Chima and Natalie chided the house for eliminating the person who helped them study for HOH I just had to turn it off.

Thankfully, there's the Real "wayback machine", so this morning I went back to scan over the night's "highlights". For the most part, it was the Jessie show last night. Did you know that if the questions were in a different order he would have won HOH? Or that the coup d'etat isn't fair because the winner doesn't have to do anything (besides impressing viewers) to win?

When he wasn't trailing Chima and offering his demands...I mean advice...he was in Kevin's face for having the audacity to not vote against his best friend. Yet, a few hours later this very person he was pitching a tent with the very person he wanted out.

I have to hand it to Chima, though. Despite Natalie and Jessie's vigorous assertions that Jordan and Jeff need to be nominated, she is holding her ground against doing that. Russell, Lydia, or Michelle are names that are constantly being mentioned as nominee possibilities.

Like so many nights, though, it's the same conversations over and over and over.

As for the mystery power, Natalie doesn't believe it's possible that either Jeff or Jordan won. Both her and Jessie believe that Kevin won. Lydia, though, does believe that it's Jeff, mainly because if it had been the other half of the house Ronnie would have been saved.

Jessie and Lydia Finally Talk

These two deserve each other.

For the past hour, they've been acting like pre-teens - pretending the other doesn't exist, making noise to annoy the other, lots of passive-aggressive silliness. At one point, they even argued as to who had the right to the room because Lydia stepped out for a few seconds.

Right now, Lydia is complaining about being used by Jessie, and that he tried to break up her and her best friend. Jessie is claiming that he's not trying to vote her out, and that he will do whatever Russell tells him to do.

Funny thing is Natalie is standing outside listening to the entire conversation.

Does Ronnie Have Hope After All?

Ronnie is sitting by himself in the pool room, smiling as he listens to Kevin argue with Jessie in the next room. Natalie, Chima, Michelle, and Jeff are also in the room as this meaningless "he said/she said" fight continues on.
