Kalia nominated Rachel and Jeff for eviction in Big Brother 13 Episode 14. Nobody believed that she made her own decision.
Rachel starts packing her bags. Like anybody believes she’s really leaving. Jordan has now taken on the role of managing Rachel in Brendon’s absence.
Kalia follows Rachel’s breakdown with one of her own. Daniele pretends to care.
Porsche’s happy to distance herself from her friend and hang out with Daniele instead.
Kalia, Jeff, and Rachel are joined in the veto competition by Adam, Shelly, and Jordan (Rachel’s choice). Jeff’s plan is to beat anybody, even the Hoff.
Jordan doesn’t know who to trust any more, including Shelly, so now Jeff gets to listen to more women crying. At least he’s saved by Daniele and Porsche not having any emotions.
Their veto task is to keep rolling their ball back and forth to themselves. First person to 300 without dropping it (a drop resets the counter) wins. Shelly, Jordan, and Jeff are all playing for Jeff. Rachel’s plan to rush through this isn’t working for her, as she repeatedly drops the ball, drawing much mocking from the onlooking Daniele who wonders why Rachel hates her. Somehow, Adam (yes, Adam) is in the early lead by 10 and is the first to 100. Jordan says that Adam has more balls than Jeff, quickly realizing exactly how they’re going to make that sound. Jordan drops the ball again at 60. Adam hits 140, Jeff at 135, Kalia is in third at 100. Shelly drops at 98, and along with the other two and the now taking the break Kalia, it would seem like she’s not in the running. Jordan stops to root for Jeff. Strangely, Kalia does the same. She knows what Jeff will do with the veto (not save Rachel), but she doesn’t know what’s on Adam’s mind. As we approach the end, Jeff is narrowing the gap on Adam, but it looks like he’s too far behind to catch him. Jeff finally takes the lead 292-291. Retaining his lead, Jeff wins the power of veto.
Kalia hopes to mend fences again, but Jeff still doesn’t like the fact that she put him in danger. As a peace offering, she says she will not be putting Jordan on the block.
In celebration of his 40th birthday, Adam shaves his beard for the first time in 6 years. I don’t recognize him, but his voice will help with that.
Rachel offers to work with Kalia, but she promises to get rid of Daniele if she stays.
Lawon suggests that they put him up. This is not about being a pawn. He wants to be evicted. He’s got it in his head that he’ll come back with some special powers, and maybe a cape. Nobody cares if Lawon goes home anyway (even his former partner Kalia), so this may be the easy way to just waste this twist week.
At the veto ceremony, Jeff takes himself off the block, and Lawon takes his place. Kalia thinks she just gained three allies, but they’re not forgetting that quickly.
