{note - they have not shown if there is any sound on the spyscreen} {As of right now - Rachel has not shown anyone else the spyscreen} Shows Kaysar at 5 am waking for his prayer. Showing everyone else sound asleep - snoring is terrible April says that Ashlea wasnt very warming when they first got in the house Maggie says that Ashlea absolutely needs to win the Pov to stay Ashlea says shes going to pick Howie but she wants him to throw the comp. so that alteast Ashlea would have one less competitor. Hes not sure. Selecting pov competitors Rachel/Maggie Kaysar/Eric Ashlea/Howie Host is Ivette Going to change and going outside - we see metal jungle gyms that have strings, ropes that are wound around, knotted and many of them. Each HG must climb their way through the cage - while tied to the end of a rope. twists and tangles, knots etc... go through the maze to get to the other side and get the veto. Howie - The grass was hot - rug burns Rachel - it was exhausting Ashlea was complaining Kaysar said his body was shutting down - it was exhausting Looks like they are holding a mile of rope with them as they proceed to the next tangle. Ashlea got through and sat down, taking a rest. Howie gets made and throws his rope down that hes holding. Eric- Maggie and Rachel were a step ahead of us but not too far Rachel wins!! They had to release a big veto symbol off the end of the rope so it had to be NOT in a big wad of knot by the time they got out. They are all extremely tired!!! It was really hot - Howie gave up. Eric says that Rachel is a force to be reckoned with. Shes a wolf in sheeps clothing. Commercial

back Rachel has a key - knows it unlocks something but has to think about it. She didnt want to get everyones hopes up but just discovered the key unlocks the cover to the hot tub. She teases the other HG just a little and opens the hot tub. Howie says the hot tub offers a more suductive enviroment for the chicks to make a move on him. HAHAHAHA Rachel tells the story - the puzzle and the secret bedroom. {shes being really bossy} suggests a competition or something so that the really nice rooms get shared by everyone. Hense is the spinning game with the dinner room table. There are 3 safes in the room - Beau says he wants to figure out what they are about. Eric acting disappointed in the diary about how calculating Rachel was with this puzzle, keeping it to herself. Rachel calls everyone to the living room and reads the pov rules. She shows the golden POV. 6 People will compete. The winner can chose to use the pov or not. blah blah This summer there is a twist - there is a chance no one will win the pov. End of meeting Commercial

{The amazing race is looking for teams of two - apply today 8) } back showing the backyard pool some houseguest in the living room talking Eric is telling about his personal life as a firefighter - its his calling. Hes getting emotional telling of his story of 9/11 and his family. Made him realize how important his job and family are. Gets cheers from the HG for doing what he does. Eric and Ivette are in the hammock. Eric says this week you will see alot of the alliances. Eric tells her he doesnt trust Beau. Ivette tells ERic what her pecking order is of the girls. Eric says thats a best case scenerio - could only do that if they each won HOH everyother week. Rachel is still re-reading the clue, in the HOH trying to figure out the puzzle to the secret room. She found the compass in the living room, there were people in there so she couldnt pick it up and look just yet. When they leave she gets the compass, pulls a paper off the back - everything is written backwards - she had to put it in front of the mirror to read it. It gives directions to the secret lever for the door of the secret room!!!!! Rachel finds the door which is behind a dresser - shes cheering for herself - golden room with fur on the beds - there is a big gold key with a little key attached to it. Theres a little door to peek out to spy on the other room. She wants to get out of the room without being noticed!! Kaysar comes by just as she opens the door - closes it, peeks out the window - sarah looked closely at the wall - but not sure if she saw the door or room. What do I do with this info??????????? not sure. Commercial

I too will be glad to help out.

Regardless what the TV Guide is posting - CBS Early Show advertised a minimum of two times during the show today that the preview of the Big Brother house would be tomorrow morning. That would be 6 July between 7 - 9 am est if any of you are still interested. If I am correct - this is the first time that CBS has actually advertised the house preview???? The first came from Diane Henry. the second false alarm came from TV Guide.

I saw the same commercial. It clearly said see the preview tomorrow Why????????????????????? this isn't right, this is torture!

Okay peeps, been intently viewing Cam 1 for the last 15 minutes - I am certain that something has changed in the house!!! I have seen chicks in bikini tops, guys with no shirts and many many different people passing by the fish tank, sitting, standing, talking and one with a duffle bag. Reach your own conclusions but this is exciting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

6:40 est I witnessed ATLEAST 10 people just walk past the fish tank all following eachother leaving one girl(?) sitting in a chair at what looks like possibly the table. I don't know but my thoughts are the HG could very well be in the house!!
