If Caleb wins, he'll have to crawl out of Frankie's ass first before he does anything Derrick and Cody tell him to do.

Derrick is lying and trying to score some brownie points (good for him). Based on how Derrick and Cody screwed Nicole and Hayden over, I don't know that Nicole is going to trust Derrick again. He burned her once already. I guess we'll see. What she might do is try to get a deal with Frankie going (if she wins HOH tonight), especially since she already knows she'd like to do pay-back to Derrick and Cody anyway. Then she could try to earn some brownie points with her arch-enemy Frankie. As far as saving Nicole........ I know I wouldn't be buying it in a season where all they've ever talked about is getting the big bad Donny out. I think Nicole is smart enough to know that Donny was their #1 target anyway. Derrick's just trying to work it in case she does win HOH tonight.

Yes, and the last thing Nicole and Hayden said to each other when she won the spot to come back into the house was "Derrick and Cody." Hope she sticks to what Hayden would like to see happen, wins HOH tonight, and puts those two up pronto.

I agree that Frankie is playing a better game than Derrick. If given a chance, Frankie will strike first since Derrick and Cody seem incapable of doing it.

Me too. I don't care for Frankie but he's a step ahead of the others in knowing what to do next. I can't imagine he is going to let Derrick keep flying for too much longer.

This is absolutely true. The odds of Donny even making it to the final two are so slim as to be non-threatening. There are too many others in the house who will see to it that Donny doesn't make it there. This week was truly THE WEEK to get a player out who has others that will help them make it to the finals (Frankie, Caleb come to mind). But I don't think Cody is the sharpest tool in the shed.

Derrick is a slimeball, pure and simple and Donny sees right through him. Can't wait to see what they'll come up with once Donny is no longer the target of their attention. Should be interesting to see how they react to learning they are the Nerd Herd 2 / aka Turd Herd.

I so hope Derrick and Cody get evicted before it gets down to the wire. But on the other hand, I would pay money to see the look on Cody's face when Derrick burns him at final three to take Victoria into the final two. Now that just might be worth what has been a LOUSY season of Big Brother. Possibly the worst.

Everything TripTrey said, I totally agree with. Derrick may be the luckiest player eva. He fell into it. No strategy, no mental work. Bonus luck is he has been hiding behind so many others and now that he's starting to be exposed, you can see he already has problems keeping it together. As bad as Zach shoots off at the mouth, I dare say he has shown more cool than Derrick has.

Which is really too bad. Does Derrick think he's suddenly going to grow a pair of balls and nominate Frankie?? I mean, really, for Derrick to be so hell-bent on winning the half million, how does he bank on Frankie leaving the house? Because if he's sitting next to Frankie in F2, Frankie will win. Caleb isn't going to nominate Frank. Donny isn't going to do it since he would rather get Derrick out first. Cody isn't going to nominate Frank, nor will Christine. I don't know what Victoria would do, but she'd first have to win an HOH which isn't likely. Let's see how far Derrick has thought this through. My guess is not very, which at this point in the game is pretty lame. But we are talking about a man who would rather leave fate to the skittles.

It could end up biting him in the ass if the tide turns and Cody gets evicted Thursday night. Uh oh. Zach remains. Now that would be priceless the look on the Frank's face when he sees he's not actually in control like he thinks.

Would love, LOVE to see Derrick ousted by Frankie.

That would be truly awesome if he did that. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I don't know which one I would get the most pleasure from seeing backdoored -- Christine or Derrick. Hate 'em both. And I, too, never want to see this girl again.

Well, I've already gone on record -- I can't stand him. His self-entitlement, not being able to handle the stress, his condescending (and patriarchal) handling of Victoria. His intense hatred of Donny. Putting the blame for inane things onto others (i.e. the mission of voting against the house then pointing the finger at others -- WHICH HE CLEARLY DIDN'T WANT TO DO -- but rammed the blame onto Donny every chance he got -- "He cost us $5,000!!!!!" by refusing to do it, oh, please.....). And the most self-serving line of all was telling Zach when Zach outed the alliance to Victoria -- "You are literally taking food out of my daughter's mouth." Telling Cody he's going to be PISSED if anyone other than he or Cody (read: just Derrick) end up winning BB this season 'cause they clearly have played the best game. He's got sore loser written all over him. Nope. Don't like him and think he's lame as all get out.

ITA with your analysis. That BS group really did set the stage and doomed the rest of the season not only for others in the house but for us as viewers. The two players I want to see go the most are Derrick and Christine. I wouldn't consider myself a fan of Donny, but he's done just as well as Derrick and Christine -- plus without all the inner support. Could Donny have been more aggressive? Yes, but it would definitely have been at the risk of ramping up his already-in-jeopardy position in the house. He did the best he could with what he was given which is sad.

I think ol' Derrick is starting to think Christine is looking better all the time. It might end up being a toss-up between her and Victoria now <shudders>. Especially if he heard Nicole say Christine is 0 for 3 with the jury.

No kidding. The guys couldn't have asked for a better gift than this. I've never seen someone sacrifice their own game so willingly -- so early on and so continuously -- as Christine.

ITA. I would love to see Christine go next before Donny. That would really burn her. They don't really need her after she finishes off Nicole anyway.

Christine just blew any chance of advancing. Even if by some miracle she's sitting at the end, there is no way she will win with this jury. Nicole will see to it. But the guys aren't going to vote for a girl to win anyway. They're the most misogynist group of guys I've seen on BB.

HAHAHAHA Christine is doing the dirty work for the guys. This girl is stupider than I thought. I'm almost embarrassed for her.

Which is why he seriously needs to work a final launch against them. This is about the last chance to do it and it would be squeaky tight. It would require the help of Christine breaking a tie if it came to that. Victoria has no business following Derrick. Donny's been his own man since day one. Nicole will be voted out in the near future as will Christine. Add Zach to the mix and you have three votes to keep Donny in the house. Plus Christine to break the tie. They would have to convince Christine to put up Derrick / Cody / Frankie / or Caleb, of course, to make it work. It COULD be done. And should be done to set Derrick and his crew back a notch. But will it? No.

Exactly. He's terrified of just the IDEA of being nominated. If I was in the BB house and saw someone that visibly shaken by the idea of being on the block, it would be like the elephant in the room. I'd have to nominate them just to get it over with.

His self-entitlement is astounding. They should get rid of him this week.

Why can't she see she has absolutely no future with the Turd Herd? She's the first one to go from that group. Her only shot is to take one of them out this week. She should be working it hard to convince Zach / Victoria / Caleb that all of their days are numbered with the locked down alliance. They should then keep Donny and vote out Frankie / Cody / Derrick (which ever one she puts up as Zach replacement) and make a go of it. Even if she can't pull Caleb in, with three votes (Nicole / Zach / Victoria), it would be a tie and she would be the one to break it.
