Returning to its roots as a popularity contest, Big Brother 10 Episode 12 saw Jessie evicted from the Big Brother house based on America’s vote. Following Jessie’s eviction, Michelle won HOH, putting big(ger) targets on Libra’s and Keesha’s backs since they turned on their alliance for no apparent reason last week.

Tonight’s episode is delayed due to the 60 Minutes/golf overrun (yes, this again). A live recap will begin when 60 Minutes is over.

As he was walking out of the house, Jessie asked Memphis and Michelle to stay together in the alliance that’s been a sinking ship for the past month.

Jerry hates Dan’s guts now. He tells him not to hide behind his cross. This from the guy who took offense to people who took issue with him being a military man and lying.

Michelle promises us she’s flipping this upside down. Yeah, we heard that threat before. April, meanwhile, says that the other people are afraid of Michelle and herself. Wait a minute. That’s the duo to be afraid of? That’s even a duo?

Next up, it’s a competition to see who’s the loudest, most obnoxious person in the house. Michelle, Jerry, April, and Libra are all too close to call.

Eventually this comes around to how Dan needs to burn in Hell because he apparently lied.

Dan asks Memphis to start damage control and try to work his mojo on the lunatic who used to be in his alliance. Dan continues to play the weak player role.

Memphis is getting tired of seeing April’s lips on Michelle’s ass.

Jerry doesn’t want to ever speak to Dan again. Michelle continues to beat to death her bitterness over the unitard competition.

Brian (from this season… not sure why considering who else is there) is back with one person from each of the prior seasons. Chicken George, Bunky, Amy, Jun, Jase, Janelle, Mike Boogie, Jen (at least it’s not what’s his name or his daughter), and Matt are all there to get another 15 seconds of fame. Current houseguests are playing for food. Returning houseguests are playing for cash. Dan is incorrect, not believing that Brett Favre is a New York Jet, so Mike Boogie gets $1k in cash, whereas the house is on slop for Monday. Renny doesn’t believe the ridiculous story that gas is over $6/gallon, so the house gets food for Tuesday. Jerry thinks that Jessie, who was evicted like 8 hours ago, has been offered a magazine cover already, so the house is on slop for Wednesday, and Janelle wins some cash. Chinese officials have banned bald and smelly cab drivers, which Memphis gets incorrect. Ollie doesn’t believe China can prevent rainfall, which they apparently can, so the house is on slop for another day. Libra gets her question wrong as well, as Cheech and Chong have apparently reunited. Michelle doesn’t believe that the earthquake was fake, and she is right, so she wins a feast for the house. April believes that Britney Spears is going to create a country album, putting the house on slop for Saturday. Keesha gets the final question right, scoring the third non-slop day for the week.

Michelle believes Dan’s in an alliance with Libra, Renny, and Keesha. Huh? She also doesn’t realize or care that April nominated her two allies last week, yet now April all of a sudden wants to be her best friend.

Nominations
April is safe.
Memphis is safe.
Ollie is safe.
Jerry is safe.
Renny is safe.
Dan is safe.

Libra and Keesha have been nominated for eviction. Pretty obvious result considering their unnecessarily bold move last week. And in case you missed it the first few times, Jerry hates Dan.

In Big Brother 10 Episode 11, everybody got into a fight with… everybody else. Except Dan. Jessie hates Libra (still) and vice versa. Keesha, after having thrown away the opportunity to get rid of Jessie last week when the rest of the house begged her to take him out, has decided that she now hates him, too. She also apparently hates April. And Renny hates Jerry because, well, I never did figure out why. Michelle hates Libra because she’s a sore loser. Memphis still hates Jerry for calling him a womanizer. At the end of the day, all this arguing didn’t make much difference, and veto winner Jerry kept the nominations the same, so it will be either Memphis or Jessie heading home tonight.

Memphis says there is no alliance any more. Yeah, no kidding. These idiots have gotten picked off like flies.

Like last week when Keesha promised Jessie his safety despite nominating him, April has also promised him safety despite nominating him. Hopefully he won’t take the opportunity to be an asshat again. Once again, the rest of the house feels threatened by Jessie. This time, though, I’d say he’s the less threatening of the two options. Keesha, who flat out refused to get rid of Jessie last week, is mad at April because she is doing the same thing. So is the word I’m searching for here moron or hypocrite? Libra’s also mad because Jessie is (as usual) coming after her if he ever wins anything again.

Keesha and April know they have Renny, but they need a fourth vote to make a move. That fourth vote is Dan (aka America, unbeknownst to them) because they know they won’t get the support of Jerry, Michelle, or Ollie on this issue. Dan gives them his word that he’ll vote with them. The good news for Dan is that America’s already made it apparent to him that nobody likes Jessie. This is the pathetic part, though. BB complains about outside influences, yet they’re letting a public vote singlehandedly shape the entire rest of the game.

April has figured out the same thing. She has Jerry go to Dan to try to convince him to vote to get rid of Memphis. He listens but doesn’t really make any commitments. Dan realizes that, either way, this America’s Player nonsense will screw him, but he’s better off if America votes out Jessie.

Michelle says she loves the unitard. At least she’s done whining about it.

Keesha says that none of the drama from her birthday party has been forgotten.

Libra answers a viewer question that she doesn’t regret taking the trip to Hawaii (probably worth about $10k) instead of a letter from home because her family wants to go somewhere and they’re in good hands anyway. Why are we even dwelling on this anyway?

April thinks she’s still allied with Libra and Keesha. She takes credit for saving them and isn’t happy with how they’ve treated her this week. April wants Memphis gone because he hasn’t made any effort to get her support.

Votes
Michelle-Memphis
Ollie-Memphis
Jerry-Memphis
Libra-Jessie
Keesha-Jessie
Renny-Jessie
America-Jessie

What a silly, silly show. By America’s vote, Jessie has been evicted from the Big Brother house. The lines in the house have been redrawn. Not sure to what. Jessie blames Dan, who he claims swore up and down that he was safe. And apparently the fact that Dan doesn’t go to church on Sundays is a problem. Jessie doesn’t regret any of his asshattery. April’s shocked that the person she nominated for eviction has actually been… evicted. Libra tells him good riddance. Keesha tells him the same. As does Renny. Michelle vows to get revenge for him.

Obnoxious wake up calls are back. This proved to be entertaining last time they did it during All Stars. The no apparent reason for this becomes somewhat apparent because the HOH competition is based on those wake up calls (yeah, lame). Everybody gets the first question right. Renny and Ollie are eliminated on the second question. Jerry, Dan, April, and Memphis are eliminated on the third question, leaving Libra against Michelle. Michelle is correct on the fourth question and wins HOH. Big surprise. April celebrates more than she did when she won HOH, and Libra and Keesha’s insistence on screwing over their alliance has come back to bite them just 5 minutes after the fact. Major coup followed immediately by a realization that it was an unnecessary move, the kind of stupid game ending move somebody always makes at this point in the game. Memphis is quick to let Michelle know he doesn’t want anything to do with the people who saved him.

BB10 Spoilers

Jessie was nominated as usual in Big Brother 10 Episode 10, but as with last week, he was not the HOH’s intended target. Instead, April is aiming for his ally Memphis.

Michelle thinks the pawn typically goes home, which is true. The good news is that these dumbasses kept Jessie last week even though he was a dumbass.

Dan’s got a new task from America. He must hug Jessie for at least 10 seconds. America has issues. Either that or people are hoping to get a preview of Jessie’s gay porn debut. Dan decides to approach Jessie with a sob story about his girlfriend Monica. Jessie is very moved by the story, and Dan manages to pull off the hug for 17 seconds.

April selects at random Michelle for veto.
Jessie selects Libra.
Memphis selects Jerry.

Jessie’s happy to have his ally having his back. April has no confidence in either Jerry or Libra, and she doesn’t hide it from Libra. Libra walks out and begins discussing it with Keesha, who also has problems with April. Jessie is awakened by their loud conversation and overhears everything.

Jessie goes to April and tells her what he overheard. April gets it into her head that she’s going to argue with Libra. Ollie doesn’t have any problem with her putting a fresh target on her (their) head(s). While April and Libra are talking, Keesha gets pissed off and walks out of the room, wanting to know why April’s a bitch and who told her what she’d said. After some screaming in the other room about how she hates April’s guts, she returns to tell April how she feels in person. After some pushing, April reveals that Jessie was the one who told her about the conversation. Jerry enters the room to be the voice of reason. Then Renny decides she hates him and goes out into the other room to stir up Memphis.

Jessie decides he wants to argue with Libra. Libra tells Jessie she’s done arguing. Apparently. Wouldn’t know it by the amount of yelling she continues to do.

With that said, it’s time for a merry birthday celebration for Keesha. And they actually let them sing Happy Birthday. Shelling out the bucks to pay for that song instead of For She’s a Jolly Good Fellow… they must really want us to see this moment.

Michelle gets into the mix, asking if anybody even knows what the fight’s about. This just leads to more screaming. Keesha decides she wants Jessie gone and that he’s a little kid.

The veto competition is hockey. In each round, the players will shoot and try to get closest to the center of the net. Whoever is furthest away is eliminated and can choose a prize. Each eliminated person can keep their prize or exchange it with someone else. Memphis misses completely and is the first out. He gets the power of veto, which he probably won’t keep for very long. Michelle misses completely the next time and is eliminated next. She gets a Hawaiian holiday. Jessie is in the slot furthest from veto and is the third person eliminated. He gets a slop surprise, which may or may not come back to haunt him. He trades it with Memphis for the power of veto. April is eliminated next, leaving the two people she thought sucked most (Jerry and Libra) as the last two standing. She wins 10 gold bars worth $1,000 each, which can be used as she sees fit, including giving them to other players. She decides to keep this prize. Libra gets it right in the middle, and Jerry is the last one eliminated. He gets a letter from home, which he trades for the veto after agreeing with April to split the $10k three ways. Libra wins first place, a red unitard (used by Jen and Sheila). She trades it for the Hawaiian trip from Michelle. Memphis’ slop surprise is a one week slop pass, but he also chooses who will be on slop for a week. He picks Jerry and doesn’t believe Jerry will use the veto on him anyway.

Michelle makes it abundantly clear that she’s pissed off at having the unitard. She wants to quit the game. She complains to Big Brother that she’s been made a fool out of, so she makes a big scene to make a bigger fool of herself. Then she tells us Libra’s an unfit mother because she took a trip to Hawaii instead of a letter from home. Jessie promises her she’ll win the next HOH.

As planned, Jerry does not use the power of veto.

Like last week, the house wants Jessie out, but the HOH doesn’t want to hear it. Will they bow down to the HOH again? The irony here is that Keesha now wants Jessie gone, despite throwing away the opportunity to take him out last week.

As his final task, Dan will be voting the way America wants. This has badness written all over it.
