Adam & Dominic were nominated in Big Brother 13 Episode 5. Adam trusts he’s not the target. Jordan says they have to work with him, for right now, though she does not trust him. Dominic feels he is the target, and his partner is a traitor. Meanwhile, Rachel is angry that the prettiest girl in the house has not been nominated. Don’t worry. She has no intention of messing with your man.

Jordan instructs Adam to throw the veto. Contrary to Jordan’s plan, Daniele and Rachel want Dominic to win veto.

In response to her reaction to Cassi, Jordan calls Rachel almost ridiculous. The risk here is that they help Cassi bond with Jeff and Jordan.

Joining Jeff, Jordan, Adam, and Dominic in the veto competition, Brendon and Rachel are selected at random. Rachel suggests winning the competition and changing the nominations. They want to make a deal with Dominic and then all of them partner with Daniele. This is a worse alliance than the last worse alliance. Oh, but they’re not turning on Jeff and Jordan. Rather, they are not making good decisions. The lone voice of reason is Brendon, who doesn’t to do this behind their backs, but he does not protest much.

This is a singles veto competition, so Adam won’t be able to drag down his partner. The challenge is to chew gumballs, cross the balance beam, and fill in a veto portrait. Jordan’s looking forward to this. She walks and chews gum all the time. If you fall, you’re out, unless you’re willing to accept two weeks of slop, though a second fall will eliminate you anyway. Adam doesn’t even have to try to throw the competition because his balance sucks. Go ahead and try your hardest, dude. Jordan is the first to fall. She offers to take two weeks of slop, but Jeff talks some sense into her because neither of the girls is going to win this. This leads to more whining from Rachel, as vocally as possible (as if there’s an alternative from her). Rachel falls, but she takes the two weeks of slop. She very quickly falls again after that. That was stupid. Hope you proved the point you were trying to make. Jeff and Brendon give him a run for his money, but Dominic ends up winning the veto.

After the competition, Jeff picks a fight with Rachel due to the comments she made during the challenge. Brendon’s behind her 100%, aside from the fact that he doesn’t understand why she made a comment that they shouldn’t even try if the HOH isn’t going to try. Rachel hides in the bushes and cries. She decides she doesn’t work with them any more (you were working with them in the first place?), but Brendon doesn’t want to get nominated.

Adam’s just as happy as Dominic because he’s safe, too, all without breaking his word.

Rachel suggests that she could be a bitch and tell them that they let Jordan win HOH, but Brendon has her instead make a fake apology that nobody buys.

Jordan realizes a simple fact. If Brendon and Rachel had the option, they would ignore her and nominate whoever they wanted.

As much as he wants to be in this new alliance, Dominic doesn’t want to break ties with his old alliance either.

Dominic uses the veto to save himself and Adam as expected. In his place, Cassi and Shelly have been nominated.

Following Keith’s eviction in Big Brother 13 Episode 4, Jordan won HOH.

Rachel thanks her lucky stars that the newbies are idiots.

Everybody pretends they were on the same side. Adam acknowledges that they approached him. When he says this, Dominic walks out of the room. They’re both ready to turn on each other.

Dominic’s new strategy is to flirt with Daniele. Good luck with that.

Adam continues to be honest, this time telling Jeff and Jordan he didn’t vote with them. If he’d just kept his mouth shut, it’s possible nobody would have known anything. Now neither side of the house can trust him.

Rachel hates Cassi and wants to get rid of her on that basis. Didn’t Rachel say she wasn’t going to play emotionally this year?

Jeff, Jordan, Daniele, and Porsche automatically get a pass for the have/have not competition. The others get dressed up in ant costumes with both partners in one outfit. Bring on the really bad not so hidden nor clever sexual references. The first duo to crawl across the backyard picnic four times will be able to choose the two who are have nots. Kalia and Lawon clearly have no prayer as usual. Cassi & Shelly likewise aren’t going to win this. Brendon & Rachel are leading from the beginning with their only threat being Adam & Dominic. Brendon & Rachel end up winning.

Before the decision, they need to rescue Kalia, who apparently got may or may not have gotten injured toward the end of the competition. The medic comes to check her out and wipe away the mostly fake tears.

Dominic & Adam and Cassi & Shelly are chosen to be have nots for the week, meaning that Kalia and Lawon are haves for the week. In addition to slop, the have nots get jelly beans and jerky.

Dominic makes a pitch to the veterans. He wants to team up with them because his back’s against the wall and he’s out of options. Well, that’s an appealing proposal.

Cassi tells Jeff & Jordan they’re not her targets. Brendon & Rachel are, though she’s not opposed to getting rid of the other new people either.

So now it comes down to a choice of two. The other two girls hate Cassi. Shocker. Jeff & Jordan would like to target Dominic, though.

Nominations
Jeff is automatically safe.
Daniele and Porsche are also automatically safe.
Rachel & Brendon are safe.
Shelly & Cassi are safe.
Kalia & Lawon are safe.
Adam & Dominic have been nominated for eviction.

How long can one of the “greatest players ever” last without America pulling the strings? In Big Brother 13 Episode 13, we got our answer with the departure of Evel Dick: a couple of nights. The situation on the block remained unchanged, and tonight either Porsche or Keith, both disasters at playing this game, will be going home.

The Regulators want Porsche gone, for good reason. She’s clearly not on their side and has never had any interest in being there.

The veterans have realized something. They need to stop hiding up in their room alone away from everybody else. Actual veterans would have realized that long before now.

Brendon & Rachel get into a stupid fight because she told people she calls him Bookie. His poutfest is the result of his insecurity in his masculinity. Is this really happening?

Shelly and Adam are the potential swing votes that they hope to sway. Shelly is told that they want to get rid of Cassi. Their strategy to get Adam: think of their nickname. Really? Kalia doesn’t seem to be on their radar, in spite of how much she hates Keith.

Votes
Dominic: Porsche
Brendon: Keith
Jordan: Keith
Cassi: Porsche
Lawon: Porsche
Jeff: Keith
Daniele: Keith
Adam: Porsche
Kalia: Keith
Shelly: Keith

By a vote of 6-4, Keith has been evicted from the Big Brother house. In spite of Porsche being more like a Kia, Keith’s big mouth got him in trouble. Congrats to Shelly and Kalia for giving away the numbers, but unbeknownst to them they’re on the bottom of either totem pole, so I don’t know that it really matters either way. For the time being, though, it puts them in a good spot. The other newbies will go after the veterans, while the veterans will go after the other newbies. Being in the middle has its advantages at this stage of the game, no matter how much Rachel hates floaters.

Rachel is not eligible to compete as outgoing HOH. Daniele and Porsche are also out because they have golden keys.

The HOH competition is mini golf. They have to get closest to the hole in 1 without landing in the water hazard. Dominic gets a 6. Adam gets an 8. Cassi goes in the water. Shelly also goes in the water. Lawon follows suit. Kalia ties Dominic. Jordan takes the lead with 3. Jeff and Brendon throw it to give Jordan the HOH.
