Big Brother Week 8 Recap and Updates

Unfortunately, the HOH competition from last week was not on feeds but it has been quite a week in the house.

Victor won Head of Household for the second week in a row (and two out of three HOH). Immediately he and Paul agreed that now was the time to get either Paulie or Corey out. Victor has his sights on Paulie because Paulie backdoored Victor and got him evicted.

To that point, everyone has their eyes set on Paulie. The spell has been broken and everyone now realizes that from the point that they did a reverse on Frank and took his power away all the power has been with Paulie and the only people that have been evicted have been who Paulie perceived as a threat.

Victor nominated Paulie and Corey. Nicole got mad (again) at Michelle for laughing during the nominations. Apparently Nicole only has a problem with laughing when it is her or her showmance involved as during all the other laughing fits she remained quiet.

The players for the Veto were Paulie, Corey, Victor, Paul, James, and Nicole. Zingbot came out for his yearly appearance which led to the competition. Victor eventually won the Veto and unsurprisingly did not use it.

I see no reason why Paulie will not be evicted during tonight's show with the only potential vote for him coming from Paul.

Rankings

8. Paulie - Paulie got so comfortable and cocky in his game playing that he never realized that a revolt was coming. Once put on the block he had one of the most amazing melt downs I have seen in recent Big Brother history. He swore up and down that if, once he got to the Jury house, he did not have a chance to come back into the game he would just quit. He received a punishment during POV that he had to make pies. He routinely would not make pies when signaled to which caused him to have to go to DR. He has paved his way to be voted out tonight.

7. Corey - Corey was caught in the clast radius of Paulie's game being blown up. He is safe for this week but maybe not from next week, depending on who wins HOH.

6. Nicole - She has done nothing but complain and mope

for the last week. Since she is completely tied to Corey and Paulie her game has essentially been destroyed. She has routinely tied herself to the wrong side of the house and is once again on the outs.

5. Michelle - She is still on the outs in the house. She continually says that she is not a mean person and does not talk crap about anyone in the house right before she starts in on someone. She remains under target as long as Corey and Nicole are in the house or targets. The only way her game suffers is because of herself.

4. Natalie - She latched herself onto James and has rode that train through this season. She definitely is no in the playing for winning the game but she could make it to the end to ensure that someone else wins. She has zero wins in any competition, but was able to completely throw Paulie off his game.

3. Paul - Paul has stayed under the radar all season and may have the best chance to win the game.

2. Victor - He has completely changed his game since coming back in the house and is now a favorite to win the game.

1. James - He has his fingerprints all over the game without being really suspected by anyone in the game. As long as he keeps Victor in the dark he should make it to the end and win the game.
