11:04 PM BBT Becky is up.  She takes out 8 pins on her first throw and then misses on her second throw.  Vanessa is up...she gets 5 on her first throw and none on her second.   That’s the end.  First place is JS...Jackie and Shelli...with 128.  JJ is second with 120.  Third place with 109 is MA.  Fourth place is BJ with 100.  Final place was “reigning losers” with 80 points.  Steve requests a racking bonus, so the final place team gets 81.

 

11:09 PM BBT With the bowling game done, HGs have dispersed to different parts of the house.  James and Austin are hanging out near the DR door and watching the goings on in the KT and LR area.  Steve asks Austin if they will be chessing tonight and Austin sounds annoyed as he agrees.  As Steve moves away, James and Austin joke about Steve being his “son.”  Austin says the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.  Austin says he is getting ready to focus. 

 

11:15 PM BBT John and Steve are sitting in the LR talking about spring break.  Steve says he is going to need an internship when he gets out of here.  Vanessa and the twins convene in the CBR.  Liz is upset with Austin because he ignored her the last hour and is hanging out with “you know who” [James]  Austin didn’t talk to Liz at all during the bowling game.  Vanessa tells Liz that she has nothing to worry about because he is completely smitten.  Vanessa thinks that Austin is probably campaigning.  Liz says that if anyone asks, she is mad at him.

 

11:17 PM BBT Vanessa and the twins discuss whether Austin knows things that he is not telling them.  Vanessa thinks that he knew about Vanessa being the replacement nom and didn’t say so.  Julia thinks that Johnny Mac is acting really weird.  Johnny has told Vanessa that he is down and feels like giving up.  Julia comments that he has given up this entire time.  They decide to practice.  How many times does Shelli spin?  2.  Clockwise or Counter-clockwise?  Counter-clockwise.

 

11:20 PM BBT Liz is called to the DR.  Vanessa tells her “you have to go say goodbye to me.”  Liz says she already did it. Vanessa and Julia keep talking after Liz leaves.  Vanessa wonders when they will find out how the others are voting.  She wants Julia to ask, but Julia wants Austin to do it.  Vanessa encourages them to start speaking for themselves instead of letting Austin speak for them.  They talk about Liz and Julia being individuals too.  Vanessa tells Julia she can do it, and at least now she has all the info because she doesn’t have to switch out anymore.  Julia asks about what happened with Clay.  Vanessa gives the highlights but says she still doesn’t know what it was about.  Julia thinks they will know tonight about votes.  Becky wants to talk to the three of them [Austin, Liz, Julia] ...probably to talk votes.  Julia plans to just listen.

 

11:25 PM BBT John, Shelli, Austin, Steve, James, Meg and Becky are all in the LR.  They are commenting on the Voodoo doll and asking why they called it female.  Austin is calling Steve “son”.  Steve is uncomfortable with it. 

 

11:27 PM BBT Vanessa and Julia are talking about targets.  Julia talks about making big moves.  She doesn’t want to put up Johnny Mac and Steve.  She wants to get out someone like James or Jackie.  Vanessa advises her to do big moves to avoid the reputation of just hiding behind Austin.  Julia points out that Austin hasn’t even been on the block.  They talk about Austin’s performance in competitions. Julia feels like Austin is not trying.

 

11:30 PM BBT Vanessa tells Julia that she is going to go talk to Becky and get it over with and try to find out if she is going home or not.  Then she’ll come back and think about her speech.  Before she goes, they do some Jedi training.   Upstairs in the HOHR, Meg and Becky and Jackie are doing their own Jedi training. 

 

11:38 PM BBT Steve is taking a shower and James says he wants one too.  John and Shelli are lounging in the LR without talking.  Austin talks to Vanessa in the CBR and tells her it’s awkward but they are trying to avoid talking to her about it until tomorrow.  Austin asks Vanessa if she is studying with the girls and she says yes.  Austin says he can’t even study because he has to follow this around.  He goes to the HNR to talk to James and mentions studying.  James points out that Liz and them need to study too.  James says it will be too obvious if they are all studying together.  Austin says he wants to study with “you guys” and he wants to compare notes with James.  They make a plan to study with different groups to gather more information.  Austin doesn’t think Johnny Mac is studying with anyone.  Maybe Steve will.  James says they are at a disadvantage because they are going up against 7 or 8 people.

 

11:42 PM BBT In the HNR, Austin suggests that if he is guessing he could cough as a signal for letting James know he is guessing.  James starts to agree and then they both realize that signalling like that would probably be considering cheating.  They better not do that.

 

11:48 PM BBT Austin goes up to the HOHR to join Becky, Meg, and Jackie’s Jedi training session.  Austin tells them that he and James decided to split up so that it wouldn’t look too obvious.  Meg asks what James is doing and Austin says that he’s buzzing around the shower waiting for Steve to finish.  Becky brings Austin up to speed with where they are in their drill.

 

11:55 PM BBT Austin, Becky, Meg, and James are still Jedi training in the HOHR. John and Shelli are cleaning up in the KT.
