Mallory: I haven't heard anything, I'm just freaking out. When I talked to Devens he's like stuff's gonna get dicey today. Barrett's avoiding me. He tells me good morning every morning, eh didn't this morning. He hasn't left that bedroom with the other people. He's avoiding me. Maybe I'm paranoid. We talk every single day. I haven't been able to get him alone. I feel like he's never alone
it was him, Drew, the reality icons, and Chuk, Haley, and Kamu
Mallory: ?? the fuck ?? I don't think Kamu was there
Lyric: Kamu was there. they woke his ass up to go in the room. Kamu, Chuk, Haley, Dee, Devens, Angela, Drew, Barrett. 8
Mallory: I knew it
Lyric: We both called with Drew. I have a feeling I'm going up
Mallory: I'm nervous someone said something to Barrett because like. After nominations, I said something like it's crazy that Ashley and Barrett lost the safety comp but they're both safe because they weren't in any of the groups. And Drew was like be careful you can't say stuff like that
Lyric: Drew is trying to play both sides
Mallory: I know it
Lyric: ?? I knew it too
Mallory: Maybe Mallory can trust him. ?? crush ?? I knew it
Lyric: I'm scared they're gonna put up Rome. Thoughts?
Mallory: I don't know. Rome said he's good with Devens right? ?? Devens ?? like he's gonna spill some crazy tea. I'm fucking scared. And Barrett's avoiding me which is freaking me out. Besides you and Mal, Barrett's one of my closest friends
Lyric: Here's my thought. I'm not gonna freak out about the block. Everyone's gonna be there ?? If I'm on the block I"m gonna ?? Like that's my thoughts
Mallory: Jason, if he's on the block on Thursday I think he's gonna go home
Lyric: What?
Mallory: He's been ?? he's targeting Devens. ?? He told Haley he's targeting Barrett
Lyric: Barrett's with them I told you that
Mallory: You knew it was Barrett? You should've told me
Lyric: He was the one I Was like he's in the middle, but last night confirmed
Mallory: ??
Lyric: Don't be stressed you're not going up. He's not gonna put the same people
Mallory: Yeah?? the impending doom f shit's gonna get dicey
Lyric: He said that to you?
Mallory: Yeah, well he said that to Rome
Lyric: That's what Rome said?
Mallory: Yeah
Lyric: The thing is you can't even be certain with his noms cause someone comes off and there's a fourth one. Do you think he's gonna put up Mel?
Mallory: mhm. I'm nervous with Melody. She's gonna rock with us. But Drew is gonna rock with her and she's gonna wanna keep Drew around
Lyric :But Drew's working with them he's in an alliance
Mallory: That's why I'm nervous working with Mel, she's smart and Drew is good for her game. So if it comes down to it, she probably knows me, you and Rome would choose each other over her. She's gonna choose him
Lyric: Just because you can't be wishy washy with people. You and I are solid. IF it comes down to it, I'm gonna choose you. Not between Melody
Mallory: ?? number one ?? I feel like he has a crush on her
Lyric: Rome told me he loves me last night
Mallory: I'm so excited. I'm so glad you have him
Lyric: We have him
Mallory: I have him by association. How do you feel?
Lyric: I feel like it might be too soon but. What exactly is love? Am I feeling this way because he's my protection and he made himself a Have Not so he could be next to me?
Mallory: that just shows sacrifice and trust. We could literally be eliminated
Lyric: How do you feel about Angela?
Mallory: I don't know. She's so nice with everyone but she's clearly in something
Lyric: Oh, yeah 100%
Mallory: IF you talk to Rome again, tell him to be careful with Melody. You can tell him that thing that I told Melody I'm not sure about Melody and she went to him
Lyric: I don't really talk game with Rome. If I do it's about him and my peoples
Mallory: I think Melody's gonna choose Drew over us because that's smart for us. We would pick each other over her and Drew would pick her
Lyric: Yup. Honestly, whatever. I read a book after I got broken up with, it's called the ?? theory. It basically says let people ?? Am I going to have the conversation to try to secure my safety? Yeah. I already did. I'm not gonna give him the same spiel again. Let other people talk
Mallory: IF Barrett is leaving us he's a fucking idiot. I really would have rode for him. Losing me as an ally is bad
Lyric: Yep it is, but you know what whatever? It's a game. If he chooses to be with a side of the house, he can do that. But when one of us wins HOH don't come crying saying you're loyal because we know you're not
Mallory: I'd rather someone be clearly on the other side than pretend to be both
Lyric: that's the thing I"m not gonna force myself on people who don't want to be aligned with me. Honestly I feel like if I wasn't with Rome I Still wouldn't be on that side
Mallory: Me either like
Lyric: I never clicked with. I like Dee but I never clicked with like
Mallory: I don't
Lyric: well, she put you on the block
Mallory: I thought maybe it was just a thing but now with all this, getting all the icons and the biggest physical threats together, like...
Lyric: It's okay
Mallory: It's okay yeah
Lyric: because look, they're not gonna win every competition. They're not
Lyric: okay. I wouldn't worry about it. I don't think eh would do that
Mallory: That would be crazy
Lyric: but, yeah
Dee comes in
Mallory: Hi Dee. A little cardio
Dee: Mallory you're crushing it
Lyric: How are you?
Dee: I'm good. I'm trying to find Devens
Lyric: Is he not in the room?
Dee: No, I knocked
Lyric: You can join us if you want to
Dee: Okay thanks
Lyric: I don't get nervous when I'm with you. We vibe. Honestly, Rome doesn't even talk. I don't know if what he's saying is lies people are telling him. People know he's a big threat. So take what people say with a grain of salt. I can't believe Yash though. Yash is so sus
??: why?
??: he's hanging out with them
??: oh yeah
Lyric: and he's like you guys are my day ones ?? and ?? what? Genuinely like what?
Mallory: Just the impending doom of what's going on
Lyric: so you're telling me my name wasn't mentioned?
Mallory: No names were mentioned when I talked to him
Lyric: I just gave him my spiel. He didn't say anything else. I'm no gonna drag it out of someone
Mallory: Yeah he has a lot of people to talk to. I wonder if someone told Devens Jason said he would target him. Whatever Barrett heard if it's bad about me it's a lie. I haven't lied to him at all. No one has schemed against him to me. I don't know why he'd be avoiding me unless he heard something untrue
Lyric: Yeah, we'll see what the true colors are today
Mallory: Yeah. I just want nominations already
Lyric: Yeah
Mallory: I feel bad for Melody
Lyric: me too. It happens
Mallory: It does
Lyric: I hope I'm not used as a pawn
Mallory: Yeah me too
Lyric: Like to get at Rome
Mallory: I hope not
Lyric: but if they do that they're gonna ruffle some feathers. And I'm gonna work my ass off to win a veto, and I'm gonna work my ass off to win Blockbuster. That's ?? mindset
Mallory: that's a good mindset to have
Lyric: what's the point of getting worked up
Mallory: I want to say you're good but I have no idea
Lyric: that's the thing, you never know until it actually happens ... don't worry about the Barrett thing
Mallory: I just wanna talk to him
Lyric: wait he's not talking to you, fully ignoring?
Mallory: Every morning we say good morning, hug, talk. It could all be in my head but ??
Lyric: Yeah they're all hanging out
Mallory: Maybe after this I Can be like Barrett wanna make some coffee with me? And if he's like no I don't want any I'll be like great so you fucking hate me
Lyric: I think Rome's got a target on his back because of how he acted last night
Mallory: Maybe
Lyric: I told him don't go up there, don't ring the door bell just let them be. You know who's up there you don't have to do a dancing party. I just think it's unfair Devens won because he ?? round three. He's like I didn't have a dancing partner, he wasn't standing next to me. Who was next to me? Jason was next to me and you were next to me
Mallory: mhm
Lyric: Should we go downstairs soon?
Mallory: yeah maybe
Lyric: I just don't wanna be gone for too long
Mallory: yeah
Lyric: Okay?
Mallory: No just a little out of breath like cardio wise
don't worry about the Barrett thing. Seriously don't
Mallory: I am
Lyric: you can't control if he says or not. You can observe and see how he's operating right now
Mallory: I just want to talk to him and let him know he and I are still good
Lyric: yeah just let him know that when you get down there
Mallory: ?? talk some game like do you know what's going on> Cause the vibe here is crazy, I feel like everybody knows something. Like it's stressful
Lyric: It's super stressful. But end of the day we got each other and people who got us. So we just gotta confide in each other. We can argue about who's doing this and that but at the end of the day people are gonna choose the side they want to be on, we just gotta fight like hell to get some power
Mallory: yeah
Lyric: cause at the end of the day who wins HOH determines who's HOH. Gotta win an HOH
Mallory: I know
Lyric: next week. We have to
Mallory: Okay I'm ready to do an ab workout. Do you want to or do you wanna go down?
Lyric: I can watch you
Mallory: You don't have to
Lyric: I'm gonna go do down an d??
Mallory: I'll be down in like 15 minutes. ... I just want the ceremony to be over
Lyric: We're gonna be okay. I'm nervous too, I'm just trying to not to work myself up
Mallory: I'm just a nervous person
Lyric: So am I, you saw me the other day. Love you
Mallory: That's also what makes this game so crazy. It's not like the real world where people have your back. People can be so friendly and not have your back
Haley: Even in the real world, everything always comes out. That's why you always just wanna be kind. Wish there was music
Mallory: Me too. Or some type of timer
They do their workouts
They talk about not being into exercise bikes
Haley: Drew and I were (working out) yesterday
Mallory: How long did you go for?
Haley: maybe like five minutes because my butt was squeaking
They continue their workouts
Haley: I'm sad that the outdoor's closed
Mallory: I know. i feel like it's gonna be closed for a long time
Yash talks about his conversation with Dee, and telling her he didn't plan to put her up unless he needed a pawn, and that them working together would be unexpected. And he could tell people he was going to put her up and then not do it
Devens says Dee also agreed that he shouldn't put the three of them back up. He apologizes for being so cryptic but he wants him to enjoy the show
Yash asks how he slept
Devens says ??
Yash says he heard there were a lot of people here. Was that shit going down too?
Devens says yeah. Drama drama drama, but then he said he's gonna do what he wants to do. this whole time it's like pace yourself, and now he's like ah hell. Do the crap you always do, see what happens. And that's probably why he's never won anything
Yash says that's how you have fun doing it
Devens says this is a gangster squad that he might never get a gain
Yash says and he's got a number with him. Haley came to him saying there was rumors. Something with her him and Rome from day 3. She said something about Jason saying something about how he and ?? were close. This is people's strategy. Throwing names and seeing what sticks. But he knows Devens is solid. When shit hits the fans he expects Devens to be the one to remain steady. Like was telling him when he was on the block. Everyone can be steady when it's chill, but ?? when shit hits the fan
Devens says he's gonna show them that he's comfortable in it. Like it's fan. Also, it's gonna be taken personally, and it's not. He loves everyone in this house. It's 100% game, but it's gonna be taken personally. When you attack someone's game, they feel attacked
Yash says what Devens said yesterday resonated. He talked with Kamu and when they all got into his HOH room, Kamu mentioned that it was good on Devens' part, and he's assuming that Kamu isn't the only person that felt that because they both felt that
Devens says and that's how he'll start the speech, and then napalm. again, it was important to him not to put Yash up, and specifically not any of those people. Not gonna do it, don't care. He's standing by that.
Yash says he appreciates that
Devens says he's done his work. This week gets to chill
Yash says he really does appreciate that. Now it's time to run it up. If he needs anything holler
Devens says they'll check in after. If anything comes up before that he wants to talk to him about, come talk to him
Devens: I look like a weirdo. I just put it on. It was in this box ... but I'm trying to figure out what's going down, moving around last pieces and stuff. Yeah, I'm still trying to lock in everything
Lyric: yeah don't even worry. I just wanted to check in with you and let you know I still stand where I stand
Devens: I appreciate that. What I'm trying to do too, yeah exactly, everyone's trying to see where everything is all the moving parts
Lyric: yeah. Okay. Well I just wanted to check in with you
Devens: I appreciate that
Lyric: I'll let you enjoy your time
Devens: and I like you so much, sister Lyric. Mr. Rome, I feel bad that last night we didn't answer the door. That was such a jerk move
no it's okay
Devens: I love Rome he's a good dude
Lyric: He's ??
Devens: such a pain that we don't have someone who just sucks to send home
Lyric: ?? so hard (for her to go to him and talk) ?? (not that) don't wanna talk to you.
Devens: I know
Lyric: I didn't want you to think I'm just cruising. I hope this goes well or you and you can just relax
Rome talks with Taylor and Lyric in the locker room
Rome: Taylor, you look gorgeous this morning
Taylor: Thank you
Lyric: you always look gorgeous
Rome: My sweet angels
Taylor: Hi Charlie
Lyric: ??
Taylor: ...she went up there, she was looking for Chuk. She said I'm just gonna go up there and work out by myself. She's fine. Don't worry about it. It's still a house. We still gotta live together
They talk about the potential vote power/punishment
They both say they haven't been called in for anything
Melody says she's playing to have a life, get the fuck out of her face
Mallory says he came from Survivor, they came for Big Brother
Drew comes in
Drew asks er how she is
Melody says not good. She was telling Mallory she came here to play Big Brother. She didn't come here to come here. What upsets her is if he puts up the three of them, they don't have the numbers
Mallory: Yeah, fuck
Melody:We were talking about maybe the twist
Mallory: ?? thinking ?? Devens ?? could get it
Drew: Cause like now, genuinely, you can get it. You were on the block and then you won veto. You could be the underdog
Mallory: It's too early, it's hard ?? fall in love for a player, but not for him. A lot of people are watching for him
Taylor comes in
Taylor: Sorry guys, let me just stick my stuff in these drawers
Drew: I love that you call me Baby Boy it's so funny. ?? at the comp you're like I see you Baby Boy. I'm like that's my girl Tay
Lyric: What am I gonna do? Walk around here paranoid? If I go on the block I win the veto. If I don't win the veto I win the blockbuster. If I go home, I go home
Rome: It happens. But we don't need to go that far baby/ One step at a time. Just take today as today
Lyric: It's so funny because I read people like this. Like Kamu, I'm like you're floundering. I'm telling you right now, you're going up. So am I
Rome: I'm telling you your eyes are so pretty
Lyric: watch how you react
Rome: do you trust me? Understand one thing. I'm a winner. I know how to play these things. Last night was just my seed planting. Do you trust me? Do you love me?
Lyric: well yeah, we established that last night
Rome: did we? I think you have to jog my memory
Lyric: Yeah of course
Rome: What?
Lyric: You don't have to say it
Rome: I said it first
Lyric: I said I love you
Rome: You did. I said I love you too. You're the best. I like this game a lot. I have so much fun with this shit. It's like being in a real life board game. Like every piece
Lyric: Devens apologized. He said that was a jerk mood to keep Rome out last night
Rome: He knows
Lyric: Don't tell anyone what I tell you alright?
Rome: That's it? He said that to my face. Cause I confronted him already
Lyric: What'd you say?
Rome: I said dude I don't care for what level on business
Jason talks with Mallory and Melody in the Storage room
Jason: You're (Mallory) the only one that can penetrate him (Barrett) about. They ?? him in. I think ?? and Dee were ?? me
Melody: I'm nervous that there was a big group ?? either
??: I think he could be using you for information but what information do you really have
Melody: and at this point it's time to play aggressive. And Haley is orchestrating this whole ass thing. And good for her
Jason: and good on Devens and Dee ??
Melody: Everyone's playing aggressive. I'm now on defense, or offense. I don't know how football works.
Jason We might lose a number this week because they have the votes. Barrett and Drew can be the swing votes and they would change the whole game from there. They're trying to get me and Rome out because we're the men in that group. And I think they're targeting Rome. So we need to make sure Barrett and Drew can come over to save me and Rome. I think ?? he can be hero, he can change the game, he can be the one to make a difference this season
Melody: Don't list the whole side of the house. list us ?? to make him think
Jason: that he can trust us too
Melody: that he has a better chance of making it to top 5 with us. Because if he ?? with that side ?? you need to sell him on the fact ?? even if it's not true. I don't give a fuck what you have to say
Jason: if he really wants to take out some all stars, playing this with us is the way to do it
Melody: ?? that's not goo a player. Sell him on the fact that everyone already thought hie was with us and now you're gonna flip once the power ?? you're not gonna go far with them. They're gonna see you as a swing vote
Mallory: Yes yes yes yes. I don't even know how to bring that up though
Jason: Does he know that you know that he's upstairs?
Mallory: No
Jason: So just be like you know that he was with that group upstairs. Just be like there was people up stairs were you part of it? If he says no, he lied to you
