Jason, the apparent target, and John, pawn for another week, lost the battle of the block in Big Brother 17 Episode 12 to Jackie and James.
Audrey’s pissed at Shelli because Shelli caught her in her lies. She tells James. He brings this information to Clay. Audrey just keeps digging herself in deeper and deeper. This has been going on for weeks, and she’s not learning. A for effort. D+ for effectiveness.
Shelli acknowledges that she handled her discussion with Jason incorrectly, but whether that’s the case, she’s the HOH who may need to choose a replacement nominee. Don’t go talking about her behind her back. This can wait a week or at least until after veto.
Shelli chooses Vanessa at random to play in the veto competition. John chooses Meg. Jason picks James (houseguest’s choice). Jason’s happy. He thinks people (like James) will save him. Shelli is happy that Audrey did not get picked.
Because she made promises to Audrey, Shelli does not like being in the position where she may potentially need to nominate her like everybody wants and has wanted for weeks. There’s a solution for that, or at least there was. Make sure Liz’s nominations lose so that she has to make the decision. Don’t nominate John and tell him to throw it as usual.
At BBside High, they will view videos with colored chemicals then pour the correct chemicals into their flasks. They are playing Saved by the Smell, complete with laugh track. Ugh. Everybody is correct on the first smell. James is out on the second. Shelli is eliminated on the third. Then Meg. Jason and John are next. Vanessa wins the power of veto.
Clay and Audrey get into a battle because the lies continue. She claims she never told him to swear on his life that she won’t be backdoored. Replaying the tape, she did. Her defense is that she doesn’t have a selective memory. That’s probably true. Just bad lies. Not content to leave this as is, she goes up to the HOH room, where the argument with Vanessa (the veto holder) begins.
It’s time for the veto meeting. Audrey has decided to pout in bed rather than participate. This is ridiculous. Vanessa uses the power of veto on Jason. In his place, Audrey has been nominated.
