Bronte doesn't seem long for this world. She majorly own-goaled with her original alliance and feeling like she had to "hide who she was". It's not surprising that someone who was trying to downplay a large part of her personality hasn't really made many real connections, because it's way too easy to stay quiet rather than lie.

Stupid, because "I'm a nerd" really isn't a thing that requires hiding.

Hmm, maybe I spoke to soon. I'd honestly be ok with Brone staying, because she has potential (she seems to have a good read on people) if she opens up a bit more. Tiffany shakes things up which is great and all, but she really is Vanessa's sister.

Immunity for entire teams / roadkill has really messed with things. I appreciate them trying something new, and at least it's not BoTB, but come on. The combination is ultimately just as favorable to majority alliances as BoTB was.

Frank is totally going to try to get Paulie to go after the people that switched. But Tiffany is still going to be target #1.

Day and Nat are probably the top targets but Tiffany is definitely a possibility. Paulie/Frank/Corey won't let another guy go so Paul might not even touch the block.

Paulie won't go after the flippers, so it doesn't matter what Frank says. His vote was strategic. He was in on the house flip. He just voted out Tiffany so it would be 5-4 and Frank might be confused.

Yep, a nice silver lining. I honestly kind of hope Tiffany goes this week and clowns the others in the buyback.

If you want another silver lining Paulie's gonna look like a massive comp threat now. 2 HOHs and a POV. He's going to be a target now. And this week could probably get bloody for him.

So you just sidle up to Frank the Tank, 'eh?
Bad look Bridgette... bad look.
You just sold yer best friend out and that is glaringly apparent now.

I really hate that this Team Mode creates safety buffers but this dumb house can't put it together that it's because there is a buyback.
I'm sure they are expecting it but are doing no damage control for it.

Frank has really come into this game with a complete fortunate flip-flop. He was on the block for the entirety of his first season.
He has yet to feel any block burn thus far this season.

He's deffo working the room with what's presented but that doesn't excuse his slippery tact.

I'd rather Natalie survive because she's sweet if not a bit dingy.
She's adapting to the game and I respect that.
Plus her phone convos with James seem so genuine and cute :3:

edit two breaks in: Day laughing at Tiff at her absolute lowest is a bad look.
I'm off of Nicole now, she has learned nothing the second time around.

Natalie is an angel.
She was the only one that displayed any ounce of compassion.
And the big thing was she meant it.

Paulie has so much Rutgers gear lol. He must really want to represent to wear a Rutgers sweater over his Rutgers singlet in the middle of the summer.

So Corey is dumb, apparently not good at competitions, and has very little strategic input in decision making in his alliance. Therefore Tiffany has decided he's a good roadkill choice to take heat off her because... ???

Basically there are some angles to getting him out via Da'Vonne's own desire for that to happen and some pull she might have to make it actually happen. The episode didn't go into that though.

Corey out blows up Nicole's meat shield and gets her dumb dingy brain back into the game as a free agent.

I found the roadkill comp so strange. What's the narrative and subtext of making the contestants hamsters go into a motor home toilet-themed room that smells like poop and hanging air fresheners on lines?
Is it some Hee Haw / You Know You're A Redneck prime time comedy? Is this toilet humour new or something they've done before?

A whole bunch of people want Corey out of the game because it would free Nicole back up. Corey's basically a good target because Nicole's playing a good social game and he's an anchor around her neck everyone wants to cut.

So they didn't really show any of the mean girl mentality the other HGs have shown for Tiff. It's weird seeing such padded edits for everyone when the past few seasons have had fun blowing horrible people up.

I'm not surprised. They're probably scared to show the nastiness in the house since they're in danger of having no one left to root for. They never blew up Aaryn, Amanda, or Christine until the internet got really pissed off about them ignoring it. And they didn't touch Frankie until the whole house wanted him dead.

Michelle is one of the worst and thankfully has had so little of an edit you forget she's in the house.
She doesn't deserve the edits she gets.

When she get's on the block she'll get a rightful black/white snapflash lookback on her antics.
She's the worst.

Yeah, what the hell was with that veto rule. The competition itself was fine, that particular rule was lame as hell. Should have allowed the winner to choose the next two, as has been done in some HOHs.
