7:38 PM BBT: Cory talks with Reilly in the Scary room
...
Cory says if Cirie's there, then she's safe. If not, Hisam's gonna break the tie and she goes home. And Cirie, Izzy, and Felicia are going to have to be on the same page, so it's not going to be a 7-5 vote, it's going to be 9-3 or 12-0.
Reilly asks how he knows that
Cory says there's no way Cirie and Izzy are gonna vote separately. Has she talked to her yet?
Reilly says she doesn't know how to talk to her, and she doesn't want to do anything before the veto meeting
Cory says the veto's not being used. He doesn't think that was every a real thing. He doesn't think her asking Izzy has to do with anything. Because who is he going to nominate next to her? No way it's gonna be Matt right now. They know it's not Jag. They know it's not Blue. It's gonna be him or America. He doesn't think that's a possibility.
Reilly says she doesn't know now.
Cory says don't think that all she needs is Cirie. Just know that with Cirie after every conversation she's probably gonna go and talk to someone else. She's not Cirie's number one. She's probably talking to Izzy. She's probably talking to Felicia. So it's a lot easier to make that jump if when she brings it up to Izzy, Izzy's not like hell no. If Izzy's like well actually I talked to Reilly and maybe we'd consider it, all of a sudden the vote's not gonna be 7-5. It's gonna be 9-3. But no way it's gonna be all six of them and then 1 random, ebcause why would they do that.
Reilly says because it's more hidable.
Cory says she's saying they won't even admit to doing it?
Reilly says no, she doesn't want anyone to know she did it. That's what she's saying. THat's all she has. She's not even allowed to talk about it
Cory says it just surprises him that Cirie would. This doesn't sound like something she would do.
Reilly says she promised
Cory asks what she said
Reilly says she was like "I swear you have my vote"
Cory asks when this was
Reilly says multiple times in the past couple days
Cory says he wants to get that promise today as well. Because if she has her vote, she's staying. When he talks to her all she talks about is yeah she's super tight with Izzy. He's just saying, you're not getting one without the other. So what is she gonna say to Izzy? And he knows she doesn't want to throw Cameron under the bus so say next week's probably endurance, I'm gonna win that sh**. I know we've had our weird thing. I'm not even considering gunning for you. You know how close I am with Cirie. I know you're super close to Cirie. Let's make something happen. And then she might think it's bullsh** but it's a lot better than nothing
Reilly says she knows. She just didn't want to do it before the veto meeting
Cory says the veto's not gonna be used. THere's nothing she can say that would make the veto be used. The only thing is if she wen tsuper negative on Cameron which he knows she's not gonna do, then maybe HIsam would be like wait, maybe Cameron's no tthe person who should sit next to Reilly. But she's not doing that. She's literally saying "protect me". That makes no difference whether she's sitting next to him or MeMe or... it doesn't make a difference. And when she was HOH, if she didn't absolutely need to, did she want to name another nominee?
Reilly shakes her head
Cory says because it f***ing sucks
Reilly says yeah
Cory says she still has a lot of days. He told her from day whatever, the person she has to work is Izzy, and it's hard
Reilly says she's so close with Hisam
Cory says yeah but the thing is she's not close with Cameron. She's closer with Cirie than she is with Hisam. He believes that, and she has to understand the Hisam sh**. The sh** that pisses them off he thinks pisses a lot of people off. And you're not gonna go around like "I hate the HOH" that's probably not good but don't think this is a situation where everyone's like we've got Hisam the moral up here, then we got Reilly, the evil whatever. He thinks if anyone who is annoyed with what she did in her HOH, is not a fan of what he's doing with his HOH, especially the speeches and all the antics. The integrity sh** is pissing everyone off, because it's bullsh**. Everyone knows it's bullsh**. And he knows this isn't the type of person she is, but if she's gonna sh** talk anyone, maybe sh** talk the person who cannot vote. The person who a lot of people are looking toward next week. Because if she's targeting Red next, what is that gonna do? She needs to talk to Izzy. If it's not tonight. First thing tomorrow
7:45 PM BBT: Reilly talks with Jag in the Scary room
Reilly asks why she's starting to get nervous that Cirie's not gonna vote with them
Jag says he chatted with Cirie but she's like don't say anything, don't even mention like "I don't know if she's gonna vote with us or not" because she was tripping about people even knowing that she's iffy or something. They told Matt not to say anything to her Who else did she tell? Blue?
Reilly says Cory was in the room when they were talking about it. And Jared obviously.
Jag says to be like I don't know how she's voting
Reilly says she told Cory and America and Blue and Matt
Jag says that she doesn't know how Cirie's voting?
Reilly says yeah
Jag says he and Cirie talked and she was like yo
Reilly asks if she wants to do it or no
Jag says she does but she was tripping because after that convo in the bathroom with just them, she was like, he doesn't know but she was like how come people are approaching her like they know about that she's iffy or that she might not
Reilly says because everyone knows that she loves Cirie and Felicia
Jag says he thinks she was just... because it's a big move, and he was like yeah it's a big move, so just talking to her about that. He thinks she's just naturally in her head about everything. She's like she's gonna have to figure out stuff. He told her if she makes this move, and he knows she's saying no one should say anything, but when blindsides happen you want the sides, if you're part of the majority that blindsides the other side, they're obviously gonna know, they have to know. Otherwise when people start asking them who did it, he might say Bowie Jane, and someone else might say Felicia. It's gonna be all over. So the other option is they know and they just say, they come up with a plan of who they want to say. She was like yeah, and she was like she's gonna have to think about it and all of that. He was like they have to know who they're gonna pin it on if they're gonna pin i ton somebody. He would say she's trying to... She also doesn't want it to be so obvious because if people start to pick up on it especially on her side of the house, like Cirie's really kicking it with him or with her, that it's obviously gonna be like Cirie did it
Reilly says she's already been kicking it with them
Jag says he knows but she's playing extra safe. But he thinks
Reilly says she literally gave her her word
Jag says it's not like she said "I'm not doing it". She was just like thinking through all the steps of it. She was like yo... He was like he knows it's a big move. That's why they've gotta talk to all the little pieces. THey can't just be like okay. They have to talk like this is their story, this is what's happening. They want to make sure she's good too. They don't want it to be like she flipped and now she has a target on her back for no reason
Reilly says they'll take care of her, she told her that from the beginning. She said that to her and Felicia. She could've easily flipped the vote last week and sent home Felicia but she didn't because she said she would protect them. That's what she's trying to tell her. She could've easily kept Kirsten. Easily. It's just like she needs this
Jag says he wouldn't say that to them
Reilly says no, she's saying that to him. They don't understand
Jag says that's what he's thinking through. What is the... He thinks the good thing is they have time to figure out exactly the story is and how they want to do it because it's only Sunday and they have Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday. And it's gonna make a lot more sense for her to talk to Cirie post veto ceremony. For her to talk to everyone
Reilly says that's why she's waiting. Cory just came in here like she needs to start. He wants her to talk to Izzy. She's like dude
Jag says there's a lot of stuff they're gonna have to see. Right now, he would just say keep it cool until post-veto. He's thinking through what's the most effective method moving forward. If let's say she wants to work with Felicia, Cirie, and Izzy moving forward. They have to be in on it. One of them can't be blindsided, because then there's no working with a side that you blindsided and pretending. If she wants to work with Felicia, Felicia has to be on board. But the best way to do that might not be her going up to Felicia and saying that or her going up to Izzy and saying that. The best way might be through Cirie or might not. Or it might be after she talks to everyone then maybe Cirie chats to Felicia. There's so many different ways to do it. Last week for example Kirsten's on the block. She pitches to him and her, that's fine and Blue and Matt. That's fine. But nothing's gonna get done til they talk. The moment they talk and he says they need to keep Kirsten, and Matt says yeah, and Blue yeah and they say let's flip it. But individually talking is only good for planting seeds for further conversation on that side. Cirie's obviously her in to that side so that's just what he's thinking through is how they want to navigate moving forward and who they want to move forward with from that side. Because clearly Hisam's gonna get blindsided and, but also he's saidhe wants to work with her afterward right, but that's also part of something that could be her pitch. Like who does it benefit to get her out?
Reilly says just Hisam
Jag tells her to think about how she wants to pitch. She stays and says what. Who's the biggest threat in the house. Who would she potentially going after? He doesn't know if all these things are necessarily good to say because some of them are closer but painting herself at this point she's always gonna be a target for him, he's gonna be a... and it's like that so the dynamic maybe it's good. And maybe that's not a good pitch because maybe they're like "nah we don't want you to go after Hisam"
Reilly says he's their safety blanket. Without him they're not winning comps
Jag says that's what he was thinking through. There's a lot of different things she could say. And he doesn't know if she should say but yeah. Right now he would just keep it cool. They're gonna have to make sure everyone's on board.
Reilly counts votes
Reilly says Jag, Matt, Blue, America, Cory, Jared. Why would Jared not keep her?
Jag says all he's saying is when he thinks about everything and conversations, he doesn't know what her relationship is with him.
Reilly says Cory is convinced that she won't get Cirie's vote without Izzy and Felicia. He's convinced it's either gonna be 9-3 or whatever
Jag says he won't agree or disagree with him. THey have to think about who they want to bring in and who they don't want to bring in, and that's something that he wants to chat with Cirie more on. He'll be the person that chats with Cirie. Obviously she'll chat with her as well. From this point onward, don't talk about Cirie with anyone else, because they talk to each other, they talk to Cirie, and she's gonna get really paranoid and she might back out. And if she backs out, they're out. They're done.
Reilly says she just wants to make sure that Jared doesn't bring it up to her
Jag says at this point don't even mention it to him
Reilly says she saw Cory and Jared talking on the pool chairs and she said Cory what were you and Jared talking about and he was like the vote, and Cirie and trying to make sure Cirie's not gonna back out, and she was like can we just not
Jag says he loves Jared and he does trust him. The only thing he's observing is he's getting really close to Izzy, and that's all he'll say. Separately individually talking a lot. And all he knows is if he's talking one on one with people, yes half thetime it is just personal random sh** but the other half of the time it's like... he's probably getting closer to them and probably gonna wanna work with them naturally, and might talk to them. And Izzy's a straight shooter so that's the only thing he's concerned about there.
Reilly says Cory and Jared both agree that she should get with Izzy and talk with her, but she doesn't think that's gonna be (??) for her because she doesn't think Izzy would ever go against what Hisam wants
Jag says maybe, maybe not. Pause on that and let him look into that. Don't talk to anyone else because at this point talking to Jared or Cory or whoever might hurt more than help. Because Cirie really likes her and him and wants to trust and work with them and wants to be solid but after this morning she got psyched out that other people, and he doesn't know who because she didn't mention names, mentioned it to her. Like "the vote, are you...?"
Reilly says if Cirie backs out she's so f***ed
...
Jag says he told Cirie if they're trying to save Reilly and she's the vote that they need, people need to know
Reilly says they do. She needs to know, because if she's not in... then she has to find someone else
Jag says he'll talk to her more
Reilly says she would hope that if she's not gonna do it, she would tell her now. She doesn't want her to tell her five minutes before the nomination ceremony. Or the eviction
Jag says he'll see. Obviously trus tpeople, but don't give them all the information. Because they're doing it in her best interest but they don't often understand what is in her best interest or not
Reilly says that's what happened with Cameron. She asks if he's gonna talk to Cirie
Jag says maybe tonight or in the morning, but they have time. They'll make sure it's chill
Reilly says she's so scared right now
Jag says just talk, like with Jared. It doesn't have to be about votes or game. But make sure her people are stillher people
Reilly says he seems distant from her today. She doesn't know if that's because he's starting to change his mind
Jag says he thinks it'll be cool. Definitely observe these things and they can react as they need to but he wouldn't get paranoid about that because then...
Reilly asks if he understands that it's really hard to not be paranoid
Jag says he knows but he wouldn't show paranoia
Reilly says and she's the target
Jag says he wouldn't show paranoia. Especially since he knows Jared's close with the other side. He's probably the one person that's closest to (??). SO that's why he's saying with him cool off on any game talk or voting or anything until he can cha twith Cirie, because Jared is tight with Cirie too, so anything she says about her he's gonna say to Cirie
Reilly says she knows that's why she's scared he's gonna talk to her about the vote, and let her know that she counted her as a number for her. That's what she's nervous about. She hasn't talked to Cirie today
Jag says if she can chat with Cirie at some point. She can check in with her, because he thinks she was tripping post bathroom convo that people (??) butb e like she didn't know that after that convo don't say anything because it sounded like she was saying she didn't want people to know that she was down, so they were like oh let's say that. She might not be or they just don't know, so it's not like she for sure did it, that way even if she decides to do it it's like "I don't know, did she do it?" It goes back to a neutral state. He thinks she'll understand that. Be like dude, just chat with her.
Reilly says she thinks Cirie is trying to avoid her right now
Jag says maybe, probably, just to make sure that if she is to do the blindside to the other side, she can't hang out with her that much because she wants to cover her ass, as she should
Reilly says she needs to understand that they will cover her ass too
Jag says he knows but that's gonna be a bad approach for her and her game. She said Cameron flipped and now he's on the block, so she's worried if she flipped what's gonna happen to her. He told her they have her but it's still... a good point. Where Cameron flipped
Reilly asks if she should talk to her tonight
Jag says let Cirie pull her. That's what she mentioned
Reilly says if she asks her if Jared and them know what is she supposed to say
Jag says he would just be honest because if she lies to her that would be the worst. If she wants he rto say a certain thing or not say a certain thing she can do that but at this point these are the folks that know that she's close with Cirie. Be honest with her and be like they'll work everything out. But just let her have the convo. Whatever thing she's concerned about, address those. Because obviously (Reilly's) gonna be concerned and paranoid, she is too, and both are valid. Because it's gonna be Cirie doing that and Reilly staying and them putting on the blindside. It's gonna be the biggest game move so far, and she's the integral piece of it, and she's the one that would have to go against her side
Reilly says she knows
Jag says be as understand of her position as possible and make her feel as safe and comfortable to do it. Because he gets it. Anyone in that position, he would freak out too if he had to do it. Everyone overthinks. He thinks she's also overthinking, so that's normal. But it's also a good sign because he thinks she's taking it seriously. He doesn't thinks he would be avoiding her unless she was serious about it, because she was like "I don't think we should kick it that much". If this is gonna happen, she can't kick it with her. That's why he would let Cirie approach
Reilly says she can't believe Hisam said it was gonna be unanimous
Izzy says they're gonna do a lot of listening to Hisam right now. They're gonna voice their opinions and they're not gonna push. Because he's a ticking time bomb
Mecole agrees. He had a very stressful week. Lot of pressure
Izzy says Red is...
Mecole says an associate
Izzy says an adjunct
Cirie comes in
Red comes in
Hisam comes in
Bowie comes in
Izzy watches the HOH TV and says this is fun as hell. She asks Hisam if he watches all the time
Hisam says no because he thinks it can make you paranoid. If you're not careful... Reilly told him that at 3 in the morning, all she would do is watch everyone talk about her downstairs
Felicia comes in
They break out the alcohol
They toast to The Professors, and then have a meeting
Hisam says they should be aware that they're gonna scramble post Reilly and try to form coalitions
Cirie says they've already started. Jag's been talking her ear off
Hisam says to be mindful, they want people to feel comfortable, but not new alliances. Down the line be mindful that Cameron, Cody (Cory), and Jared are becoming exceptionally close. At some point they're gonna start working together in a more meaningful way. And it'll happen when Cameron organizes it.
Red says he loves him if it affects the professors, don't think he won't be able to
Hisam says keep a close eye on Jared (Cirie), keep a close eye on Cam (Red). They have to have someone who's close to Cory
Izzy says she's been talking a lot with Cory
Bowie says she's probably more Jag
Hisam says he will stay close to Blue. Because they're already doing that. So they can feel how things are going. He's getting closer to Matt and he will pull Matt once Reilly is gone because he's gonna be looking for a new home
Felicia says she can also pull America
Hisam says they just need to know who's who, and if they get close enough where people are like that is a diad (duo), that will allow them to stay strong and they will be able to vote the other person out of the diad. So everyone find a buddy. If they go on the blokc. it's okay to spend time with them. If anyone were to come up, they could put the two of them next to each other and vote Cam out.
Red nods
Hisam says same thing, get close to Cory so the same thing can happen there. but the next few weeks should be easy because they've already self selected
Felicia says even if one of the others win and they put one of them on the block
Hisam says but if they put two of them, and that's actually the so they have to spread out, stay strong but no new alliances, no new alliance names
Bowie says that's when they need to convince them to put someone like someone and Cory up or someone on the outskirts. Or whoever's not in the alliance
HIsam says they're gonna be pushing them so that if theyw ant to put one of them up, making sure that the other nominee is actually not one of them, so they can continue to move this process and continue to vote the other person out and they won't know. Right now, the party line is after Reilly everything opens up again and people may not be aligned as they were before. There are no longer two sides of the house. So get close to people like now that we're post Reilly, how can we work together, and really start to have those conversations and keep them all very close. Then they can have office hours, spread the information and plan accordingly
Red asks what about when they're in a situation where they're offered an alliance, how do they go along passing that without seeming...
Felicia instead of saying an alliance, just say I got your back you know I'm with you
Hisam says he thinks people are gonna bring up the idea of named alliances. Of course if there are, they don't want to blow their cover but then everyone has to know you're in a named alliance
He trusts all of them
Cirie sdays she trusts everybody here
Red says because you can't turn one down
Cirie says because it's gonna look now they're sketchy of you and now they're targeting you
Hisam says he also thinks with how turbulent things have been, when Jag and Blue approached him he was like really at this point in time, until she's gone he's not comfortable talking about it until they prove they're going to help him. He's not willing to be in an alliance
Bowie asks if he said that
Hisam says yeah. Because at this point in time they can't offer him anything. The only thing they can offer him is if they win next week and save him, and then they can have a conversation, but until then there's no conversation to be had. So just be mindful, if people are like we need to form this 4/5 person alliance to go after the other people, as long as they're working together and alerting each other, they'll be okay. But right now there are some people who've self selected themselves, and then they're gonna have to figure out this Jared/Cam/Cory situation because it's gonna become much more of a threat, and Matt is kind of like in the ether. As is America. He would much rather pull Matt so Matt can go after Cam and Cory. They're gonna try to use them to also go after their enemies
Izzy says weaponize the fragility of the situation
Hisam agrees and says at some point it's gonna probably be Jared and Cam up together because they've gotten incredibly close and it looks like they're developing something more
Red says oh yeah they're very close
Hisam says he thinks Jared is wholeheartedly on their side but be mindful as the game plays out, people start to be like how many different paths are there? And the truth is all it take sis for someone to move over and then the power shifts
Felicia says she doesn't think they can wiat too long on Cory
Hisam says right now there are bigger threats that are clearly going after people, and it's easier to get them out because they've already established something, and Cory right now is still afraid of his power
Bowie says he would be a good one if the others win, to convince them that he's a good one because then no blood on their hands, they can try to convince them that's a number that's not them
Hisam says the others are not close to Cory. They're not closes to Cory. Cory is literally living in the middle, and he's not stupid, he knows that
Red says Cory literally told him that. He asked him if they could work together at one point, and he said it's still early. He gave him that whole thing, and he didn't want to be in that position
Hisam says just be mindful. Everyone's gonna be talking to a whole bunch of people. He's already heard "is there a chance that I could work with you and Izzy. Is there a chance that... the two of us (Mecole) together"
Mecole says oh
Hisam says yes
Bowie says what about her. Hello?
Hisam says Cameron's already mentioned her name. They're rocker people together. There's potential.
Izzy tells Bowie she knows Cameron loves her
Hisam says people are already talking about Cirie and Izzy together. Trying to pull the two of them into an alliance. That's clearly happening, and they'll see it even more. Once nominations are close, and Reilly is sitting there people are absolutely gonna be like where am I gonna look next? America is already feeling that. She's already talking to other people about game. She's already talking to him more about game
Bowie says yeah she's hanging around a lot
Hisam says she's looking for a safe place to be. And Matt will lose his connection, and he will swoop in and pick up Matt. SO that should be their gameplan. Keep building friendships and alliances with people but just be mindful. Don't promise votes, because they don't want to go back on any of that. Just from their integrity
Red says he's always gonna be "unsure"
Hisam says and he thinks right now Red everybody is not sure about him. They're like what is Red doing?
Felicia says that's to his advantage
Hisam says and Meme people are like what's going on with Meme, and he's like they should ask her then. Because she's a person and she's playing this game
Bowie asks where they think she sits
Hisam says they don't know her either
Bowie says perfect
Red says on the outs is basically him, her, Cory, and Meme
Hisam says Matt will be out once Reilly leaves. Which is why, expect Jag and Blue to form a coalition
Red says Jag's already asked him
Cirie says her too
Bowie says he's given her the impression
Hisam says just based upon what they're saying, they think their target is pretty clear, who, what that looks like
Bowie asks who the ultimate is next week
Hisam asks if she has an opinion
Bowie says she's thinking about what they talked about last time but she doesn't know if it's changed. Blue, Jag, and Cameron
Hisam says he thinks it's Blue and Jag, and Jag is the one they want out
Mecole says she agrees with Blue and Jag because she thinks Blue is very cut throat, she's a good competitor and she's ready and willing to make a big move
Hisam says she came to her crying because she wanted to make a big move. The big move she wanted to make was she wasn't going to use the veto. She came crying saying she wanted to prove that she wanted to work with him so she wasn't going to use the veto on Reilly, which to be honest, is actually a smart game move because REilly is a sinking ship, and if you attach your game to REilly, you will go down with that ship, and Jag and her have been talking about that
Bowie says that's extremely cutthroat because...
Hisam says his point
Bowie says yeah, so she wouldn't trust her
Hisam says Jag is playing the more like hey we're fun, the political game
Bowie says he's probably promised all of them
Hisam says just be mindful next week when they win, it's those two. Has to be. If the two of them win, they know where they all are. They just have to keep winning at the beginning
Bowie says let's hope it's something she's good at
Hisam says they haev six really good competitors. There's no reason they can't win
Cirie says 7
Hisam says he can't play
Bowie says plus Jared
Red says and a really rounded group. They all have their strengths
Bowie says also put Cameron and Jared
Hisam says but they're not guaranteed to them. They're not officially in their formal alliance. So it's important that they keep their alliance quiet. Because the minute someone hears there's a seven person alliance and they're not named, they're gonna be like why am I not in that? ... So they'll lose Jared and Cam both, and they're strong competitors, they will put Matt with them
Bowie asks if it's risky sitting there right now. It's very enjoyable but
Hisam says right now they're just talking about having wine. But moral of the story, gameplan, they stay quiet. They start to form, now that post-Reilly is happening, they start to meet new people.
Mecole says she would say they all need to be as focused and determined on winning HOH next week as Blue is.
Cirie says she wants to win it badly. So they can keep everything here. And it's not always gonna be something that they can do that she can't. Don't sleep on all this. She looks like this but don't underestimate her at all.
Izzy says she wants them to continue to do a good job with each other to pump each other up with confidence, because she believes a lot of these competitions are determination and confidence. So if they believe in each other the way that the others believe in themselves they will also be helping each other
Hisam says same for celebrations. Keep the celebrations really quiet, and competitions that could come up, like is it person A or person B, they always choose person B. If it's the guessing game, they decide in the yard ,who's gonna be the order who's gonna go up and force the other person to play. The stay vs. fold. If they don't know the competition they'll talk about it so that everyone is on the same page because there's a strategy to winning that game. Also just be mindful because it seems like the veto competitions are more puzzle games. Both of them so far have been puzzle games. A littl bit of speed, but a type of puzzle. So it may not be the best physical competitors but maybe the best mental/puzzle thinker. So maybe they should put their best puzzle people for Houseguest Choice. Jared would've been the wrong choice for the veto game. She (Cirie) would've been the right choice. Because it's a sound game. So they just have to be mindful that it's not always the strongest physical person. A lot of these are puzzle games that require... right. So just to be thoughtful about how they're picking each other for competitions ... The one other thing is he wants to take a step back from winning
Felicia says it makes him a bigger threat
Hisam says right. Not that he won't win but he wants to be mindful. The bigger target he makes, the more likely people will band together to get him out
Hisam says relax ... The best thing that Reilly did was put them together. And what she thought she would do was pull them apart. Good job everybody
Felicia says she knows people are watching them now like look at these old time fools. Look at these seniors. Look at the Professors.
Hisam says he feels very good about what they've created. And they're very close, because they're literally watching the other side destruct
Bowie says there's strong competitors
Hisam says they also they're still very strong competitors. On that side, mentally, they have Cory for sure. They haven't seen what America can do, but what he'll say is America in an endurance competition is gonna be very hard to beat. She's 5'3 and she weighs a hundred and something pounds. Literally all she has to do is stand up. So just be mindful. Get really close to America. Because America's not close to the boys. So America might be someone who could actually put the two boys up if she was offered protection, because that's what she's gonna want. So they just have to keep people close
Bowie says and then if they win, they convince them to put up someone on the outskirts. THat's their only option
Felicia says they may not be able to to convince them
Hisam says his best option is to keep winning
Bowie says well obviously but they need a contingency plan. Shouldn't they now or not?
Hisam says that's why he wants everyone to get close. Then they can be like haven't you noticed how much time Izzy spends with Cory? And they'd be like "I haven't noticed that" BUt if they're spending a lot of time together they'd be like "do you think those two are working together?" You start to put the names up and it's like it would be a strong move to put the two of them up, and then they all vote for the other person
Bowie says that is the only way to vote. If they lose
Hisam says right now they still have the numbers. Next week if they can get one more out, then their numbers are really solid
Red says if they get one of them out by next week, they're going to jury pretty much
Bowie says the risk is if they win veto of course
Hisam says then they put a different one of them up. There's still lots to choose from
Bowie says she's saying if the others win, but then Cory wins veto, then they've potentially got someone else
Hisam says yeah but they have someone else to put up
Cirie says no one over here
Felicia says no they're never gonna vote this person out
Bowie says no
Izzy says no but she knows what Bowie is saying, if the other side has head of household and has to nominated
Bowie says they convince them to put Cory and Izzy up because they know they're gonna save Izzy, but then Cory wins veto, then they're gonna put another one of them up
Hisam says if they put another one of them up that's different, but they try to convince them to put another person up
Bowie she guesses says it is what it is
Izzy says there's no failsafe
Mecole says winning is the failsafe
Felicia says that's why they have to go in every time believing that they're going to win
Bowie says they have to make Jared, Cory, really comfortable to vote with them
Hisam says right now Jared and Cameron believe they're on their side, which is good, because if they win, they use them to continue to go after the others. But be mindful as it gets closer, they're getting down to 9 or 10 people, they're gonna be like they need to form a 4 person alliance of their own
Bowie says yeah so it's okay at the moment
Hisam says for now but as they move to midgame, it's gonna change
Cirie farts and they laugh and talk about it
...
Mecole says they give one bottle of wine, and if you ask for more they will cut you off
Felicia says she can't wait until they're outside of the house and people hang out outside of the house
Cirie says she doesn't have anything else. Office hours adjourned.
8:51 PM BBT: Izzy and Cirie talk in the Comic room
Izzy says the five of them in the Professors need to have a chat. Hisam is very scary right now. The way he's talking. He doesn't even let her or Bowie or Mecole finish talking. ... Even without Bowie. With Cory and Jared, because they know where Jared and Cory are
12:02 AM BBT: Felicia joins Cirie and Izzy in the Comic room
Felicia says while she loves Hisam to death, he doesn't see them as a (??) He's saying it but he doesn't. The Bye Bye Bitches
Izzy tells Felicia the Bye Bye Bitches but they're concerned about Bowie, and if they have a shot at backdooring Hisam they're putting him on the block. She's gonna put him on the block and do exactly what he did "we're gonna talk about the reason" ... and it will be unanimous. Up until, they know they have the votes, they keep it hush.
Cirie says she doesn't think they discuss this outside of this right here
Felicia says she doesn't know why she feels this but she feels protective of Jared, and they say Jared is with them but Hisam keeps wanting to keep Jared out
Izzy says Hisam doesn't trust them. She's been telling him she's got Cory, Cory trusts her. He doesn't want to hear it. That's not someone she wants to work with
Felicia says if it's not his idea, it's not a good idea. He doesn't want Jared in the final 7 because he sees Jared as competition. He doesn't see any of them as competition
9:36 PM BBT: America continues talking with Cory outside
America says she started watching Big Brother one of the times when she didn't have cable, around the middle of season 6. She just liked seeing the competitions. She didn't really care about the social stuff. Then it was an every summer thing and she got some of her friends into it.
9:47 PM BBT: Reilly, America, Blue, and Mecole have Cory dress up in Blue's clothes for the camera
10:30 PM BBT: Cirie and Felicia talk in the Comic room
Felicia says they're going from the Professors, to the Bye Bye Bitches, to the Brown Sugar, to the Book Ends ... She tells Cirie they're going to finale night
Bowie joins
They talk about Blue and how Hisam told her she was willing to not use the veto on Reilly
...
They discuss the votes
Felicia says Cory wouldn't vote to keep Reilly because he's getting close with Reilly and Jared
Bowie says yeah, and Red even confirmed that those three are getting closer
Cirie says but Red, Cameron, and Bowie are getting closer to
Bowie says her? She nearly blew her lid off the other day at Cameron
