Watching Russ and Michele get along, you can't help but think, "How long will this last?"

Here's an example:  At 7:20AM , our live feed updater observed  Michele having one of her nightmares which startled Russ awake.  When trying to calm her she rolled over and looked at Russ strangely and rolled back,   Russ then put one of his blankets on her to totally cover her up.  SueZqueZ the updater wrote,  "It was very nice gesture on Russ's part and he handled it caringly,  IMO." 

Kevin and Natalie went to bed early, and there were no cameras on them. 

9:05AM BBT:  FotH Time to wake the hamsters. 9:21AM BBT:  Michele and Jeff are up. 9:45AM BBT:  Jeff & Jordan talk game between giggles.  10:00AM BBT:  Michele is sitting alone at kitchen table painting her nails.  Jordan is also in the kitchen now.  10:10AM BBT:  Natalie is at the kitchen table with Michele and Jordan.  The house is quiet,  everyone in anticipation of the PoV contest.  Now Jeff joins the kitchen group. 

10:40AM BBT:  Michele goes up to the HoH room and Jeff asks what up with Russell,  she says she hasn't talked to him.  "So Russ hasn't said anything more about taking one of us out."  Michele: "Nope."  They confirm that the plan is to evict Kevin this week,  Michele says she hates Natalie,  Jeff interrupts and says, 'Yeah but Kevin's the better player." 

12:30PM BBT:  Jeff tells Jordan about his brief conversation with Michele,  and how she must be lying,  because if Russ has a final two deal Michele there has to be a plan to get rid of either himself or Jordan.    Jordan:  "Maybe we should backdoor Michele to break them up?  Since Russell doesn't like anyone else and won't make a final two deal with anyone."   Jeff gets mad at Jordan because she didn't ask Michele any questions while she was listening to music earlier.  Jeff is pissed that Jordan makes him do all the dirty work and blames him for everything.  "Well Michele is more your friend than mine,  you'd get more out of her than I." Jeff says to her.  Jordan says fine she'll asks Michele questions next time Michele comes up.  As if on cue, Michele walks in the door."  

Jordan says how Jeff is always yelling at her so Michele hugs her.  Jeff says he's a loud talker.  Jordan asks what Michele thinks of things and Jeff starts playing around with Michele, asking why she hugged Jordan when she doesn't even know what Jordan was saying.  They laugh it off and Jordan asks against what Michele thinks of things.

12:33PM BBT: Michele says she thinks the nominations are fine and stick to the plan and how she doesn't want to get shanked.   Michele says they're good and they need to get Natalie and Kevin out.  Jeff says next week, one of Jeff,  Jordan,  Michele or Russell  will have to go on the block against Natalie and Kevin and asks how they'll decide who goes up.  Michele says they'll talk about it when it happens and Jeff asks again what Michele and Russ  talk about.  She says they don't talk game but have a final two deal.  Jordan says they need to make sure they three get to final three and Michele better not screw them.

Jordan mentions how much Michele and Russell have been talking lately and Jeff uses the analogy of,  "How many times do we have to suck Russell's dick to get him to come?"   and how Jeff has saved Russell before,  "Does he think he can just skate along to the finish line?" 

12:36PM BBT: Jeff tells Michele that she's been talking weird and that she needs to stop saying 'we' (Michele and Russell)  and let him come up to HoH and ask if Russell is safe himself. Michele says she understands and knows she's safe and Jeff mentions Michele is not safe if she's with Russell.  Michele says she's been sticking with their final three deal.

Michele says that they need to keep winning and Jeff says that's a lot of winning.  She asks if Jeff wants Russell gone this week and Jeff says they have to wait for the veto and that he hasn't thought about it. He states that he may have to think about it and change his plans.

Michele says ideal situation is Russell wins HoH next week so he can't compete in HoH the following week.  Jeff says ideal would be Russell wins next week and get Jeff out,  as that would be best for Michele and Russell.  Michele states she won't vote Jeff out and says she sounds shady but isn't.  Jeff agrees but says that Michele and Russell must be talking game and would think of all scenarios.

12:40PM BBT: Jordan talks about how Russell might put Jeff and Jordan up next week,  as he wouldn't put Michele up because of their final two deal and wouldn't care about Natalie being in the house.  Jeff agrees and says they can't do anything until the veto competition.

Jordan says that they haven't talked much lately like they have before and Michele says she doesn't need reassurance and not to take her as a threat because she hangs out with Russell.  She says Russell would go crazy if she didn't talk to him and Jeff and Jordan agree and understand.

12:45PM BBT: Jordan says that they talk to Natalie and Kevin, but not about game.  Michele says how Russell has stated he shouldn't have talked game when other people could hear him.

Michele mentions how Russell asked her in the green room what Jeff said to her and Michele says how they were just napping and how Kevin was in the bathroom and wouldn't have said anything to Russell then even if she had anything to tell him.  Jeff says he didn't say anything to Michele earlier and how Russell should come talk to him.

Jeff tells Michele to put in Russell's head that he better stick with the plan or he'll come after people's families (because they swore on their families) and Jeff smiles and says he is joking.

They talk about how Russell doesn't come upstairs and Michele says Russell said it would be awkward.

12:52PM BBT:  Russell goes to the kitchen, gets a drink and heads upstairs.  Jeff asks if Russell came up earlier and rang the doorbell and Russell says yes.  Jeff explains that he was sleeping with the headphones on and Jordan didn't want to talk or answer the door.

12:55PM BBT: Feeds also show Natalie and Kevin sleeping in the red room.  Upstairs,  Russell shows them his impersonation of Casey smoking.  Jordan says people wearing costumes this year is bad luck (Casey=banana=evicted.  Lydia=Captain Unitard=evicted).  They talk about Casey's goodbye speech and his comments about Ronnie and Jessie. Russell says how Casey would say 'smmmedium' which would be a small/medium t-shirt and FotH.  (Maybe BB doesn't want the advertisement for Casey, as he has t-shirts available in sizes s/medium/Jessie's size, large, extra large, etc.. but the HGs don't know this.)

1:00PM BBT: Feeds back. Natalie/Kevin are up and whispering about the veto.  Kevin says if they (Jeff and Jordan) don't use it on them, they'll be screwing them.  Natalie wonders why would BB tell them to put their sneakers in the SR (guess that's what the FotH was for).  Jordan comes down and Natalie asks again why BB needs their sneakers in the SR. Jordan tells Natalie and Kevin how Russell rang the doorbell earlier and Russell is probably mad at her.

Natalie asks her if Russell has asked them anything and Jordan says no,  but thinks Russell is paranoid and they have to win the veto because she doesn't want Russell here. Natalie says she plans on winning it and Jordan explains how Jeff wants to win it because he wants to be in control.  Jordan assures them that they can get Michele to use the veto.

Jordan continues spilling info,  telling them Michele and Russell want Natalie and Kevin out now.  Jordan says if they win PoV,  whichever one (Natalie or Kevin) want to be taken off, they'll remove.  Natalie and Jordan start bashing Russell,  saying how he wears Casey's shirts and claims he was BFFs with Braden.

Upstairs, Jeff, Russell and Michele seems to be talking about non-game stuff.

1:20PM BBT: Natalie thinks the veto will involve water and Kevin hopes it's a messy PoV.  Natalie starts talking about what production says when it's veto time,  causing a brief FotH.  Jordan tells them she's going to lay down,  goes into the pool room and closes the door.

Natalie explains to Kevin how she's been up since 6:30 this morning.

1:25PM BBT: Jeff, Michele And Russell talking sports, not game.  Natalie and Kevin are going over the weeks events.  They're having trouble remembering what happened what day.  Kevin/Natalie get out what looks like a Chinese Checker board and they have marbles as days on their calendar.  Kevin/Natalie quizzing each other about what numbered day stuff happened.   It sounds like they have it down pretty good.

1:50PM BBT:   FotH  We believe the PoV contest is starting. 
3:00PM BBT:  Just to let you know I didn't go out for coffee,  there's no change,  it's still FotH.
4:00PM BBT:  Still no change,  it's  FotH.
4:20PM BBT:  Feeds back  Jordan said she can't believe she was the first one out.
4:25PM BBT:  Kevin and Russell don't look happy,  Jeff does,  he said: "Jeff said comps are funner when you win" 
4:30PM BBT:  Confirmed: Jeff won PoV  Jordan asks Jeff if he's excited that he won and he says yes, as he has all the power now.   Jeff and Jordan laugh at how nervous Michele was during the competition. Jordan sings 'Cry me a river..' Jeff is shaving as Jordan is in the shower.

Downstairs, in the bathroom, Michele, Kevin and Russell are silent as Natalie is in the shower.  Seems like the competition was a seek and find veto. It involved banana peels and judging from their clothes, mud. 

Jeff says he'll have a good DR session and FotH.
4:35PM BBT:  Jeff says,  "I think I'm going to pull the trigger on him. [Russ]"  and thinks it's the smartest move for himself to get Russell out now.  Jordan is out of the shower.

Natalie is now out of the shower downstairs.

Jeff and Jordan make fun and laugh at Michele during the veto competition.

Russell looks defeated and as if he's about to cry.

Jeff and Jordan start talking game.  Jordan thinks Russell will target her next week if he stays.  Jordan thinks Jeff winning the PoV is a sign and he should use it to get Russell out. The talk they had earlier with Michele shook their confidence.  Jordan:  "We got to get both of them out."  [Michele and Russell]

4:40PM BBT:  Jeff and Jordan agree that Russell was hoping Michele would win the veto.  They also agree they must break up Michele and Russell and how Michele is not telling Jeff and Jordan everything that Michele and Russell discuss.

Jordan wants Natalie to be saved so Kevin knows how it feels to be on the block but Jeff disagrees.  He wants to save Kevin because he's a better competitor and they'll guarantee Natalie's safety.  Jordan tells Jeff that Natalie told her that if they save Natalie this week,  she promised her word that she will NEVER put Jeff and Jordan on the block (will be hard next week when there's only five people left in the house.)

Jordan told Natalie during the veto competition (when they were both out) that she was safe and Jeff says he still has a few days to think about it, but they agree to backdoor Russell. Jordan says they also need to get Kevin out because he's good. Jordan says she might not be able to beat Michele in the end and Jeff and Russell final two would be neck and neck and Jeff agrees and Michele and Russell need to be broken up.
 

Jeff says the ceremony isn't until Monday's so he has time to think about every angle  Jordan says that if Natalie and Kevin approach her, she'll tell him to talk to Jeff directly. Jeff says to tell Natalie and Kevin that Jeff hasn't made a decision yet, so Natalie and Kevin might offer more and be more grateful when he saves them.  Jordan says if she wins HoH next week, she'd put up Kevin and Michele. FotH.

4:55PM BBT:  In the pool room,  Russ whispers to Michele that if he goes up,  he's going to be "frickin' pissed."  When he goes to the bathroom to wash his face,  he has a slight battle for sink space with Natalie. 

Jeff farts again and Jordan asks if he's this gassy all the time and he says no.  He wonders if BB will do a segment on him farting because he was asked about it in the DR and Jordan was asked about it, too.  Jeff says Russell is shitting right now [he means like, "scared"].  Jordan says Russell will either go vocal on everyone or be quiet and try to get votes.  Jeff says Russell will try to get Michele/Natalie/Kevin on his side and that he'll do their dirty work for their votes.  Jordan tells Jeff he better tell Natalie and Kevin they will vote how Jeff wants before he removes one of them, to secure the votes to get Russell out.

Jeff goes downstairs and Kevin asks if he wants a pizza. He says no and Natalie chimes in if Jordan wants one. He says he thinks so. [Kiss ass.  -laladoopiedu]

5:45PM BBT: Russell is alone in the green room.  Everyone else is chatting about 90210 at the dining room table.  Jeff and Jordan and Natalie leading the conversation.

7:50PM BBT: Natalie and Kevin discussing what they should tell Jeff and Jordan.  Natalie says to tell Jeff that Russell is paranoid because he's been talking shit about Jeff and wants Jeff out next.  They're talking about how to word things to Jeff so they can go back on their word if they need to.  Natalie says she's been thinking of telling Jeff and Jordan that if she gets HoH next week, she'd put up Michele and either Jeff and Jordan.  This way, she ensures the votes for Michele to leave because Kevin isn't on the block and Jeff and Jordan like Michele and might want to keep her.  She then tells Kevin not to say the same thing to Jeff and Jordan.

8:00PM BBT:  Russell gets up to got outside and Jeff is behind him,  but whispers to Jordan that Russell is so mad,  bitter and knows he's going home.  Jeff admits he was being cocky toward Russell.  Jeff and Jordan think Russell's saying he was close with Casey was crap.  They continue to state that Michele doesn't want Russell to go cause she knows she's the next to go after Russell.  Jeff says he cant think of a better scenario than getting out Russell this week,  then having Natalie and Kevin go after Michele and having Michele go after Natalie and Kevin.  They discuss Michele and how she's trying to focus on Kevin.   Jeff says Michele knows if Russell leaves,  Michele is the new target.  Jordan says how she was pissed Michele followed her up to the HoH room.  Jordan thinks Natalie's word is better than Russell's  because they've saved Natalie twice and she owes them and Jeff says Russell knows he's fucked.  They hate how Russell thinks him and Casey were BFFs.

8:12PM BBT:   Michele comes up and says someone just stole her comforter while she was sleeping just now.  She says Natalie and Kevin just removed her blanket while she was sleeping, as it seems they're doing something with all the pool room blankets.  Jeff says that doesn't make sense and heads downstairs to see what's up.  Michele gets into the HoH bed.

Jeff asks Natalie and Kevin and Kevin says they didn't know Michele was under the covers and they barely touched Michele's blanket and Michele jumped up and said 'dude' and they left her alone.  Jeff says Michele says they took her blanket and they say No, they just took Jeff and Russell' blankets.  Kevin says they apologized over and over again.  Natalie says they'll just take the pool room blankets after midnight, as the Have-Nots can't be in there after midnight.  Natalie says that's BS what Michele said.

8:16PM BBT: Jordan, Russell, Natalie and Kevin go outside. Natalie wants to play the card game BS.

Jeff goes to the HoH room and tells Michele what Natalie and Kevin just said and Michele changes her story,  saying they removed her blanket but then put it back on her once they saw her. She asks why they couldn't take their own blankets and Jeff says no one sleeps in the pool room during the day.  Jeff says he understands that Michele may be testy because she's on slop and she says she's just tired of people messing with her stuff for the past few weeks.

8:20PM BBT: Jeff and Russell outside. Jordan and Natalie playing cards at the dining room table.  Jordan is telling Natalie about what Russell said upstairs a few minutes ago. They start talking about lies Russell is saying.

Outside, Russell tells Jeff what just happened in the pool room,  and it's different than what Natalie and Kevin told him.  Russell then says that he thinks Natalie and Kevin are trying to jab him about him being on slop and Jeff disagrees,  saying he told Russell he'd think everyone was trying stones at him since he's on slop.

Russell states his plea that he swore on his father about the final four and has been loyal to Jeff. Russell says he appreciates the up-frontness and Jeff says things are still the same (that nominations will be the same--which isn't true).

8:30PM BBT: Inside, Natalie and Kevin are sharing their plea with Jordan and Natalie says Jeff and Jordan's have never come out of her mouth to target.   [Ha!] Kevin repeats that Russell has admitted to Jeff that he'll backstab to win and this is the only opportunity for Jeff to get Russell out since Jeff can't play HoH next week.

Outside, Russell and Jeff rehash the veto competition.

Kevin says that when he was a Have Not, people slept in his regular bed and he had to sleep in Michele's bed. Jordan tells them to just stay put and Natalie says she knows and Russell is digging his own grave because there's only six people left in the house and no one wants arguments. 

Jordan brings up Russell' personal life and what are lies/not lies.  Of course, Natalie and Kevin agree that Russell has a lot of money and lies about all that stuff. [Jordan just can't keep her mouth shut.]  Kevin says BB found Russell spending money in a bar.

8:35PM BBT: Jordan says she's heard that Natalie want gunning for Russell earlier in the game and Kevin says he was always after Russell and Natalie says she wanted Lydia and then Michele and how she tried to get Lydia out week one,  but Russell had to use the veto and then her clique wanted Braden out since he was close to Jeff and they couldn't get Jeff out. Jordan asks why they didn't like Jeff and Natalie says it's because Jeff was the first athlete to drop during the first HoH competition and Jordan says oh, it must be a guy thing.

Kevin chimes in that he hopes Jeff doesn't forget about all the bad stuff Russell has said about him and you know the DR sessions after the fight.. FotH.

9:45PM BBT: Jeff and Russell playing pool.

Natalie and Kevin whispering in the kitchen.  He tells her not to bug Jeff and Jordan and how Kevin has stopped complaining about things because Jeff hates that.  Natalie says that next week,  they have to break their word and put up Jeff and Michele because if they put up Michele and Jordan, and Jeff wins veto, he'll save Jordan,  he'll be safe and either Natalie and Kevin will go on the block and Jeff and Jordan will decide who goes home.   So they have to put up Jeff with Michele or else Natalie and Kevin will go home next week. Kevin says Jeff will understand that.

Kevin says they must play like their dumb, weak and desperate.

Russell and Jeff just talking about Casey's voice during the veto competition.

Inside, Natalie talks about how Michele winning stuff is just luck and she can out hang and out do Michele in every way (blah blah blah... ) Natalie asks Kevin if he wants to play badminton.

9:52PM BBT: Natalie, Kevin, Jeff and Russell outside.

10:05PM BBT: Natalie and Kevin counting back and forth how many times they can hit the bird back and forth.  Jeff, Michele and Jordan sitting on outside couches. Jordan asks Jeff if he wants to take a bubble bath with her later and he gets excited and Jordan says to rekindle after all the drama tonight

10:19PM BBT: Michele was called to DR. Everyone else is outside on the couches.
