Rachel won HOH in Big Brother 13 Episode 26 and proceeded to nominate Porsche and Kalia.

Porsche and Kalia have just one hope. If Adam wins the veto, Jordan gets nominated, and they would have the votes to get rid of her. Not a bad idea.

Otev the shark wants some pies, which are named after houseguests. Jordan stumbles her way to elimination in the first round. Rachel is the next one out. Kalia’s the third one down. Porsche incorrectly identifies Keith as this summer’s biggest loser, forgetting that Shelly is the one who lost all 17 competitions. In doing so, she gives Adam the opportunity to get back first with the correct answer and win the power of veto.

Shelly heads to the jury house unable to realize where she went wrong, and an argument with Jeff ensues. She talks about how she wanted to switch back to Rachel and Jordan and her word to stick with them would be good, so she doesn’t know why they didn’t pick her. Really?

Kalia makes Adam an offer to not nominate him next week. As if it matters. The veto winner decides who goes home in the final four, not the HOH, unless the HOH happens to win both. Odds of Kalia winning both? I’m gonna go with less than 0. She does have a valid argument, though. Adam needs to make a big move if he wants any hope, but ultimately it’s too late anyway.

At the veto ceremony, Adam opts to not use the power of veto.

Votes
Jordan: Porsche
Adam: Kalia

With a tie vote, Rachel gets to cast the deciding vote, no doubt exactly as she wanted. Rachel votes to evict Kalia. Kalia talks about how her goal was to beat the vets. Like her best friend due to lack of other options Daniele?

The fortune teller finally speaks, keeping them up all night. Of course, the HOH competition is based on this. Everybody gets the first question right, one which shows up what to expect from this competition: it’s only false due to a couple of mixed around words and the word clown shoe being singular. Adam and Porsche get the second question right. Adam and Jordan score a point on the next question. Adam and Jordan score again on the fourth question. And again. Everybody gets the next question right. Adam is the new HOH.

Silhouettes, Landau Eugene Murphy Jr., Anna Graceman, Landon Swank, and Smage Bros. advanced in America’s Got Talent Season 6 Episode 28, rounding out the top 10. Those 10 acts will perform again tonight.

Miami All Stars perform a sports themed dance (football players, cheerleaders, marching band, and a mascot). Piers buzzes. He doesn’t want them to be a cheerleading act (with a chicken). Sharon agrees this is not the right performance to get them into the finals. Howie thinks they took the Miami out of the All Stars.

Lys Agnes wants to fuse rock and opera tonight. Dream On is certainly not the song I expected from her. I don’t get it. Sharon thought she was listening to Cher with that low voice. Howie tells her that was too big a risk. But Piers says to ignore them. At least it wasn’t more of the same.

Landon Swank wants to give people the wonder they had when they were little kids. He spits a goldfish snack out of his mouth into a glass, where it becomes a real goldfish. Then he sticks his hand through a tank, and the fishy disappears. He’s happy that this is the first time that’s actually worked like it should have. Howie calls him a conjurer. Sharon loves how he makes magic contemporary.

Anna Graceman sings True Colors. Piers didn’t think her lower notes were good, but her big notes are incredible. Howie doesn’t think that was as good as last time.

With some of the kids in the group facing life threatening diseases, Silhouettes want to get across the message to not let life’s obstacles stop you. Genius again. Sharon thanks them. Howie tells them they’re the first final act. Piers calls it the best performance of the night by a mile.

Smage Bros. Riding Shows don’t have any more family members whose lives they wish to endanger, so they’re going to skateboard on their motorcycles while merely endangering their one friend who’s lost some brain cells. He gets hit in the head and his leg run over, but he doesn’t mind. Piers didn’t think it was as good as the last round, and he thinks they made some obvious mistakes. Sharon disagrees that they weren’t as good as last time, and they disagree about the main mistake he points out.

Poplyfe perform a medley of Jackson songs. I still don’t get it. Piers says they’re a great pop band. Sharon doesn’t think there’s anything out there now, and there’s probably a reason for that. Howie calls America idiots if they don’t vote.

West Springfield Dance Team hopes to capitalize on the popularity of vampires. Sharon views them as too predictable. Piers buzzes because he agrees with her.

Landau Eugene Murphy, Jr. sings some Dean Martin. No less predictable than West Springfield, but this time it gets a standing ovation. Piers would pay to see that.

Team iLuminate is the final act of the night, and tonight their choreographer joins them on stage. This is the year of the dance, and they should easily walk right into the finals with Silhouettes. A refreshing change from the typical American Idol Lite scenario.

Shelly’s eviction of Jeff proved to be her undoing with her eviction in Big Brother 13 Episode 25. We left off at the start of a HOH competition that lasted a whole 13 minutes but nonetheless was too long for the results to be revealed.

Kalia wanted to vote with the majority. She failed at that, and now Adam doesn’t want to be on her side, unless she wins HOH that is.

The competition started with Rachel in the lead, where she remains throughout the whole thing. Kalia was out before it even began, but the other two are putting up something resembling a fight. With 2 minutes left, it’s obvious that Rachel will win HOH in a final tally that’s not even close.

Kalia apologizes for voting for Adam, an apology he doesn’t want to hear.

When Rachel gets her HOH key, everybody goes upstairs and pretends to be interested, but first they have to wake up Kalia, who has been nicknamed Koala because they sleep up to 22 hours a day. All the girls talk about how great Brendon looks in those pictures. Then they notice the guy they’re left in the house with, Adam. Rather look at the pictures.

Kalia tells Rachel she’s willing to get rid of Porsche if it means getting past this week. Porsche agrees to final three as well, but Rachel’s not sure if she can trust this person who once upon a time was her friend (answer: she can’t trust her).

Pandora’s box is back. After last week, I wouldn’t touch it. Tori Spelling appears on the screen. She used to be a celebrity in the 90s when she was on 90210, and from that, Adam is obsessed with her. Their offer is a shopping spree with Tori Spelling. Not worth it. Rachel, however, thinks it is worth it. She will not be meeting with Tori. Rather, she gets to meet Jesse (Big Brother Jesse). The joke’s on Rachel, as she gets locked in the room where she can watch his ego grow. Meanwhile, the other houseguests are the ones who actually get to meet the very pregnant Donna Martin. They get a 3 minute shopping spree as well. As for Rachel, she gets a bunch of Jesse merchandise. She asks if she has to keep it.

So Porsche’s box was potentially game ending, while Rachel’s is just an amusing annoyance.

Adam switches sides again. He says he truly wants to be with Rachel and Jordan in the finals, but he’s better off on the other side because it’s not like he can beat either of them, whereas he has a shot against the sleepers.

Nominations
Jordan is safe.
Adam is safe.

Kalia and Porsche have been nominated for eviction. Porsche says it’s because they’re the strongest competitors. Really?

Rachel’s veto win in Big Brother 13 Episode 24, leaving Porsche with no option but to put Shelly and Adam on the block.

Shelly’s new plan is to be saved by a fortune teller. This does not work. So then she goes to Rachel and pretends she’s played the game. Really? Not buying that, how about if I offer you a cubic zirconia that’s a duplicate of a diamond ring from my mama? With bribery not working, she claims she’s sorry. Nobody in America believes that.

Like Shelly, Adam offers to flip back to the people in power, again.

Daniele and Jeff make their way to the jury house. Daniele wants to see Adam because he’s not doing anything. Then Jeff discovers the error he made, tossing away a clown shoe that would have won him the veto. Daniele takes credit/blame for being responsible for the eviction of all three of the jury members, and Brendon suggests that perhaps if she just stuck to the plan, things would have worked out better for the veteran alliance.

Porsche wants to go up against a newbie in the final two. I’d want to go up against the people who haven’t done anything, too.

In her pre-voting speech, Shelly openly tells Rachel and Jordan they need to keep her so that they can team up.

Votes
Kalia: Adam
Rachel: Shelly
Jordan: Shelly

By a vote of 2-1, Shelly has been evicted from the Big Brother house. At least she finally picked a side after pretending to be in an alliance with Jeff and Jordan all summer, but she left Rachel and Jordan with no choice but to seek revenge against a bad liar.

The duo twist has served its purpose and is over, and now it’s back to individuals for the HOH competition. They must dive their way through donut goo and bring back as many donuts to the other side as they can get. Rachel starts off in the lead. After just one lap, it looks like Rachel will win this, while Kalia and Jordan are already out of it. Because this is a 13 minute competition, we’ll have to wait until Sunday to find out who wins. Really? I get that this is necessary for an endurance competition, but 13 minutes?
