7:30 BBT Bowie and Red are looking for dessert ingredients in the storage room. They keep coming up one ingredient short Cocoa? No. Cream cheese? No. The majority of the other HG are in the LR with blankets and pillows. Indoor lock down. Reilly is absent and rumored to be in the DR. Harry Potter discussion has begun Hisam is explaining the different houses and the Sorting Hat.

9:00 BBT The Brit monologue continues in the HN room... The worst part is she has to play in the veto tomorrow with her best friend, who she can't even talk to because it is better for their game. It's the one person who could maybe make her feel better. She just want to sit in front of her computer and do like 4 hypnosis sessions in a row and see her clients feeling better. That's the best feeling in the world when they thank her for making them feel better. That's the best feeling in the world! She's most comfortable watching what's going on, not doing it. But she wants the full experience. She wants to be a Have Not. She wants to have to be in that room. Big Brother is just who can make friends the fastest. Someone compared her to Sara Beth. Sara Beth didn't seem fun, she was so serious. She was an outcast. She wants to stay there all day and not go to the birthday party. She wants to listen and not talk, but you have to talk or people won't want to work with you. Jasmine is a diva. She knows she hurt her foot, but she is so picks. Nicole is so controlling. Alyssa's really sweet, but she's really flirty. And that's something she's not willing to do. She's not going to talk bad about people, because these people are amazing and she really loves them a lot. She forgot how good it felt to just talk. She has all these thoughts that have to be pushed down all day long. She just wants to tell someone how she really feels. Why is it so hard to be happy sometimes? Why do our brains work this way? She knows her Aunt Jane and her Grandma are looking down on her, cheering her on. She feels them and gets full body tingles when she thinks about them. She just doesn't want anyone to ever feel alone. Ever. Ever, ever, ever. It is the worst feeling ever and it hurts, It physically hurts. How does your brain make you hurt? She does some shout outs and then proceeds to hypnotize herself so that she can feel better. (and on that note... I'm out.)

8:30 BBT Brit has been in the Have Not room having a melt down for quite a while. She has been doing a monologue about how everyone back home (including her husband and his family) must think she is a psycho. She knows she's acting crazy. She is rambling... No one in the house likes her. She needs alone time and she can't get it. She misses feeling understood. She feels like she is letting her family down, her clients down. She feels like she is spiraling. She knows what she needs to do she just can't do it. She is an introvert and can't understand how she passed the test to be in the BB house. (She is seriously sobbing) She wants to be alone but doesn't want to be the kind of person that wants to be alone. She wants to be fun. Why can't she be like Alyssa? She's cute and pretty. Everyone jokes with her. She doesn't offend everybody. She feels like she tells a joke and no one laughs and then someone else tells it and everyone laughs. She feels like a reject and wishes she was better prepared for this. She says if Steven were here he'd hug her and tell her it was ok and this is her dream and she needs to do this thing. Being here brings out every insecurity she's ever had. She finds it difficult to make friends in the house. She feels she should have figured this out in elementary school or middle school, not in the Big Brother house. She likes to be home, reading, working with her clients. She misses making people feel good. No wonder she's on the block! She hypnotized everyone to have the best week ever and now you're on the block. She just wants a hug. Like a real hug, not a pity nomination hug, like a warm hug. She could stay there the rest of the day. Stay there and think. Do some self hypnosis and feel better. But she knows that's not what she needs to do. Maybe she has social anxiety? She feels like she's not herself here and she doesn't know why. She feels like she is sharing the worst parts of herself and there are good parts, she just doesn't know how to share the good parts. She has PCOS. She doesn't want to use that as an excuse. She knew going in that it would be a disadvantage. Nothing has been mental so far. (Ya think? ---Monadyan)

8:15 am BBT. Michie enters the hoh bedroom with a BAM! he throws on the lights and announces his spread! Christi, Sis and Holly are asleep in the bed. They do not seem to be as impressed with the offering as Michie is until he leaves, then they hop out of the bed and ooooh and ahhhhhh at the food!

8:00 am BBT Michie is still preparing breakfast. 6 slices of French toast, a huge pan of scrambled eggs with sliced cheese and parmesan, to go with the 3 bowls of cut up fruit. The bacon and french toast are in the oven. Bagels just popped out of the toaster and were schmered with cream cheese and grape jam. He's going to great effort to display his creations on trays. He underestimates the size he needs though and upsizes often. He is basically dirtying up every dish in the house!

7:00 am BBT. Michie is up in the kitchen making fruit salad. Cantaloupe, honeydew, orange, pineapple, grapes, banana and kiwi. He also has a pound of bacon in the oven covered in brown sugar. Interesting... he cut up the pineapple core included. He has a big bowl of fruit cut up as well as piles on the cutting board.

7:20am BBT Cliff says OVI confided in him yesterday that he was Student Body President at college. He sees this as an accomplishment and will keep his secret with the HG. He thinks it may have been a mistake for Ovi to tell him though, because if he can campaign and win at a huge school like Tennessee, he might not necessarily want to sit next to him in the final two making arguments about who should win. Knowledge is power! [Cliff is certainly thinking ahead. ~Monadyan] He says he hopes he is entertaining and that people see him in the right light. A guy that is playing hard and having fun. He thinks he probably portrayed as the dad figure. David used a word last night to describe the mentally challenged. That doesn't seem smart at all. We are all being careful with what we say. He says They all called David out on it and he didn't apologize. David is up and walking slowly from the bedroom upstairs. He pauses a long time at the top of the spiral staircase than moves slothlike down the stairs and strolls gingerly to the WC. Cliff hears him walking and pauses his thoughts. 7:30am BBT David exits the WC, washes his hands with soap and dries them. Cliff hears him and says, "washing their hands, that's good". David moves out into the back yard where he stretches and rubs his eyes. Cliff talks lower. More about David saying "the word". He hopes he will never say anything like that but if he were to he would apologize and is shocked David didn't. Cliff wants him to own up for saying it. People out there heard him say it, screenshotted it and are talking about it. He hears the person and says he's not going to talk about game play anymore. He's going back to bed. He shouts out to his family and apologizes AGAIN for not shouting out to them last night. He gives a shout out to TexAgs. We know things! Shout out to George Strait and says what he wouldn't give to hear Troubador right now, to remind him of who he is and why he is there. He'd love to hear a George Strait love song right now, the Pure Country Soundtrack. His playlist: Anything by George Strait. Robert Earl King, look him up. Gringo Honeymoon, Merry Christmas From the Family is hilarious. The Road Goes on Forever. Roger Kreeger, Corey Morrow, Clint Martin, Jerry Jeff Walker. Cliff shows his patriotism by pulling the blankets down and showing his white star covered navy boxers. He says we are in a great country. What happens between consenting adults is fine, but he will leave that one for another discussion. He remembers the bicentennial in 1976 and thinking about the year 2000 and how far away it seemed at the time. He recalls 53 years ago celebrating the 4th of July in a house in Rockwell, TX, that is no longer even there, thinking about a time that is now 19 years in his past. What a journey his life has been. Happy Birthday America! The stuff you do well, you do incredibly well, the stuff you don't do so well, I think will change faster than anyone else out there. He has seen a lot of changes, most of them for the best. Who would think that a gay broadway dancer and himself would be so close and that he would be close to a bi/lesbian woman from NJ? He never even met anyone from NJ. He loves the diversity of this country and believes that is what makes us strong. The house is diverse and everyone has different beliefs, they don't talk about the political ones, but he knows there are different beliefs. He says he is a Libertarian and he knows people think different from him but they aren't evil. They might be misinformed. He says a terror attack would bring the country together again. He hates that thats what would do it, but... David is in the kitchen washing dishes. David speaks out loud a minute and says that the room upstairs really sucks, it's cold, he feels sick and he doesn't want to sleep up there every night.

6:40am BBT Happy 4th! Cliff hopes everyone gets fried chicken and potato salad and mashed potatoes and watermelon and sweet tea. He wishes they would get something too so they wouldn't have to cook. He feels bad about Ovi and is happy he has a chance to fight his was through and maybe come back to the game. He thinks having Ovi in the house is good for his game because he has a good relationship with him. Ovi wanted to make an alliance with him but he doesn't think its a good idea. He will tell him that when/if he gets back in they can talk about an alliance. He thinks Ovi will be so excited and start bugging him with names for their alliance. He was worried when Julie started talking about a twist, he was worried that an alum would come in the house. Not Paul! Nooooo. He is happy that David gets to experience things in the house too. He doesn't know what it is about David but he has absolutely rubbed Cliff the wrong way. He says they are all Type A personalities so he doesn't know why David gets to him, but he does. He thinks David is dangerous and a threat to all of them. He says he seems to have close ties in the house despite only being in the house a few hours. As far as the HOH, he went in thinking he really didn't want to win, so he was happy to throw it, but he didn't throw it, he honestly missed that question. Had he won, he had targets though, and would have put up Kemi and Jessica. He got nervous when he realized it was Jack and Jessica as the last two because he doesn't know where Jessica's head is. He said they have talked about her being the plus size gal and he being the old guy. He is happy Jack got it and Jack has already told him that he is safe. He believes Jack, he has other targets besides him and he'd be shocked and a little perturbed if his name showed up. He thinks they have the same targets though. He has to get to work today. Talk to every single person and be friendly to them all. It is working so far. He asks for thoughts and messages if any of the houseguests in there don't like him. Davis has already gotten under Michies skin and maybe because Michie was responsible for Daving being banished. He is worried that Michie will clash with David and that would be bad for Cliffs game because he (Cliff) is aligned with Michie. [?] 7:00am BBT Cliff says when he came in the house his plan was to create bigger targets than himself, and he has accomplished that. He thinks the other HG are comfortable with him and feel safe with him. It's hard though because there are 16 people in the house to please. It is day 16 and he feels like he is entering the middle game. He's not coasting, he's stabilizing and maintaining relationships. He feels like he is no longer the old guy target anymore, he has gotten past that. The showmances and relationships are forming. Nick and Bella are an item and assumes they are a voting block. Jack and Sis seem to have a relationship, and hes comfy with Jack but sees him as a scary player because he was deceptive to Ovi so he could do it to him too. He doesn't necessarily trust Christi, but he's ok with her. Kemi talks enough to him that he doesn't think he would be her primary target. Nicole and he have a final two so he's OK there. [?] His core alliance right now is Michie and Holly. Kat is in there but she is just not meant for this game. Cliff says she had all these followers and she's not a fan. Holly isn't either and she is playing the game with emotion because she doesn't know enough about the game to play it any other way, but he is OK with her. He tells feeders to go back and look at 4:00 to 4:45 PT. Michie talks about telling Kat that he can't work with her anymore. At 10:01 this morning he is going to pull her aside and tell her he can't do it anymore. He says during a commercial break after the votes had been cast, Kat was squeezing his hand, he was sitting next to her, she was asking, am I good? Am I good? She was so paranoid, so nervous, so unsure of her position. He says she is going to be like that every time they have nominations. He feels bad for her but he doesn't want to work with her. maybe she is fooling all of them and shes the brains and playing all of them. He doesn't think so, but maybe. Cliff has noticed Kat and David in the boat room talking one-on-one. He thinks this might be a thing to note because he knows David is coming after Michie and he knows Kat is looking for a showmance and she shouldn't be talking to David alone. Michie noticed it and others did too. Michie talked about the RV group last night. He doesn't think it's an alliance, but it is Kemi, Jessica, Nicole, maybe Bella, maybe Sis. He thinks Michie would target Kemi and Jessica first. he wants to protect Nicole and bring her in as a floater. No one would suspect that they are tight. He needs to make sure they are on top. He has to do what he can to protect her the next few weeks and keep everyone from finding out they are working together. Synopsis he says: Michie is worried about Kat. David is a potential threat. game talk: Jack called a house meeting and told everyone that we are not going to talk to David and Ovi about game strategy. we are going to keep them in the dark. He told them is the house meeting in front of them which he thinks might not be a good idea, but he (Cliff) told David that he'd fill him in on game talk. He wants to cover his bases and make sure David has bigger targets if he comes back.

6:20am BBT Cliff is up, pottied and on his way to the boat room to begin today's version of Cliff's Notes. Wearing his patriotic boxer shorts and his Texas A&M hoodie, he settles in to the comfy seat, pulls up the blankets and begins his soliloquy... Good morning live feeders and my wonderful amazing family. He wanted to be sure to get up early this morning to insure he had live feeds on him to apologize to his family for not giving them a shout out during voting yesterday. He feels horrible, he had it all planned. And it went like this... I with a sad heart vote to evict Ovi. Escapee 143. I feel horrible, I was going to shout out to my family during the live vote. He said JUDY Chen once during the show, and this caused him to forget the shout out because he was too worried about saying JUDY Chen again. He asks the live feeders to let his family know that he's sorry. He feels bad about Ovi fighting all day yesterday to stay in the house. He wanted him to know he was going home but he couldn't tell him. Jack and Jackson were telling him that he was safe and he hates that they promised him that because it was untrue. 12-0. Cliff is happy it was 12-0 because had there been any votes to keep ovi it would have cast suspicion in the house and the house doesn't need that.

7:30 am BBT Cliff got up, ate a bowl of cereal while staring at the memory wall and is now delivering his early morning sililoquy. After the usual greetings and shout outs he's pondering the demise of Ovi. He feels bad about Ovi because he deserves to be there more than Kat. He says Kat doesn't need to be here. He thinks he has votes he doesn't have. He counts the votes against Ovi: Nick, Jackson, Bella, Jessica. He knows that Christie will go with Kat in the case of a tie. Ovi needs 7 votes to win. He has to get Sam, Tommy, Jack, Isabelle, Analyse. Cliff says he will vote with the majority. The other group will benefit him more so what he needs to do today is quiz Jack, Tommy and Sam. He will pledge his loyalty and go with them. He reaches out to the live feeders to tell Ovi that it broke his heart to vote against him. He can't make a power move this week without knowing who is landing where.

7:35am BBT Cliff continues... The cracks are starting to form as he expected. Veto went well, not not as he expected. Sam pulled him off. He is going to tell Sam today that if he wants his support he will help him out in exchange for the veto used on him. He can't figure out why Christie put up Ovi and not Kemi. Ovi told him that he volunteered to go up to help get Kat out. He thinks the Power Kids are : Kat, Jackson, Christie, Jack, Sis, and Holly. They are the cool kids. The other side is Nicole, Jessica, Kemi, Bella and Ovi is trying to land both ways.

7:22am BBT The Cliff Show has begun. Cliff is wearing a hoodie and has pulled up all the blankets in the room atop him and he's going, brrrrrrr.... Must be cold on deck this morning! Chilly this morning, he says. Good morning to my family and all the live feeders out there. Monday morning, day 13, 7:15 our time. 9:15 in Houston. He has 2.5 hours till anyone else gets up. He values his morning private time and hopes he can continue the pattern of sleeping late and getting up early. He does shout outs to his family and he misses them and can't imagine not seeing them or knowing what they are up to for 3 months. Shout outs to BB youtuber, Mad Rose. He enjoys her BB parodies. Shout outs to Joker's Updates and Hamster Watch! [I might not listen so closely, since Morty didn't get a shout out. - Monadyan]

I select Tommy Bracco as my BB token for Morty's BB 21 Monopoly Game.

9:42am BBT Cliff is finally awake, searching quietly for his clothes for the day, trying not to disturb anyone. He heads to the storage room, changes his batteries and puts on a blue button-down shirt. He buttons it wrong, notices his error and re buttons starting from the bottom until it is correct. He looks over the kitchen as he walks by and then settles on the boat room where he crawls in among the pillows and blankets and says, good morning world... Good morning to my wife and kids. I love you so much. Everything is going well, and he will see you in 3 or 4 months. He does a shout out to Mr. Brocco, happy birthday! More shout outs to family and friends. He gives the daily synopsis. Says people are getting scratchy and now people are not as kumbaya as they were in the beginning. He got good news, he is probably coming off the block according to what Nick and Kat told him. He says if it doesn't happen and he looks shocked, it is genuine and he will probably faint. Cliff talks about the possibility of getting HOH and not knowing what to do if he gets it. He needs to pick out some possibilities. He says the person that won the 2nd HOH has never won BB. He is going to have more gray hairs when he comes home from the isolation and the paranoia. He says things are about to hit the fan and these friendships that people think they have aren't real and some of them are about to find out. He knows we viewers want drama and he says by this time next week firm battle lines will have been drawn and the games will have begun. Look for a George Strait song called Troubador as it is his theme some. He is a 54 year old guy with a 24 year old brain. Shout out to George Strait! He thinks about that song all the time that he is in that house. Jackson is up! The monologue might end soon. 9:55am BBT Jackson passes by the boat room and enters the WC. He exits, washes his hands and blows his nose. In that order. Cliff talks about people whispering and looking around and the feeling you know what's going on when you see it. He says good bye from the BB house, for now! Enjoy your Saturday, hug and kiss your wife and kids. 10:00am BBT Jackson, wearing only grey briefs and an eye mask, enters the storage room and changes his batteries. And we get WBRB... wake up time?

9:12 am BBT House guest wake up call and we got to hear the music!!!!! Ocean Avenue by Yellow Card! Jack and Cliff are enjoying the tunes. Bella arose. The HOH occupants are unmoved by the music. No signs of life there. FOTH/WBRB
