Memphis tells us that he thought he could trust Dan to not be an idiot but now he knows he's wrong and has to take the game into his own hands. LOL. You do know that means you'll actually have to win something that matters, right? He gossips with the girls about what a dumbass Dan is, like the Renegays meant nothing to him. Time to see the HOH suite! Pictures of Rerun's family are everywhere. Just kidding, it's lots of football stuff and a t-shirt from Monica that says TAKEN in all caps. Because even Dan's t-shirts have to yell. Controlling much? Probably just as well. Dan seems like he could use some guidance. Or beatings. We are shown a pic of Monica, and she doesn't look like a rhino at all. She's actually really pretty. Of course Dan looks like Keanu Reeves in that shot, so I don't know how trustworthy the photo is.
Ted: OK wait. If you guys are really us, what number are we thinking of?
Memphis thinks Dan is a giant pussy and tells us that you would never see him in a shirt that says taken. Well, maybe now that you have a full fledged automobile and you won't have to pick girls up on your bike anymore you might get to reconsider that one, womanizer. Dan says that he needs to play the game harder and weaker for his girlfriend. You know Monica's gonna beat his ass like a runaway ho when he gets home. He says that he really does love Monica, but he needs to seem as weak as he can to the other houseguests. Well, tell everyone about your deal, then. Nope. Instead, he conjures up some fake tears while he reads his letter from his girl.
Dear Dan,
No one has taken out the trash since you left you motherf***er, and if you left me to do the dishes and pay the bills all this time and you don't come back with half a million dollars, I swear to God (and I'm wearing my crucifix) that I will cut your balls off and feed them to you, you weak stupid man. Don't suck, Monica.
PS Your football team lost. AGAIN. Loser
He doesn't conjure up any actual tears during the reading of the letter, but Renny falls for it anyway and tells us that a man who can show his emotions is a real man in her book. Later, lying around with the other HGs in the living room, she tests her theory about Dan's manhood and asks him how many girls he's dated. He doesn't know if she means girlfriends or dates, and she rolls her eyes and says it's an easy question. How many damn abortions have you paid for? He refuses to understand what she's asking, so she starts screeching because he won't eeanswer! Eeanswer the queastion! LOL. He pisses her off, which redeems him a little bit in my eyes. At least for now. She stalks off mad and screechy.
Later that night, Rerun comes to talk with Dan in the HOH suite and gee whiz, guess who he wants to put up on the block? Memphis! Dahdoink! Dan tells us that if he puts up Memphis he risks turning Memphis against him and losing his strongest ally in the house and it might backfire on him. Ya think? Cut to Memphis stuffing his face in a really loud hoodie.
I shaved my chest for this?
The next morning, Memphis finds Dan outside and asks if Rerun tried to get him on the block. Dan admits to making a deal with Rerun. "Nothing physical." Memphis high fives him for not giving up his sweet little ass that easy and keeps probing. Dan says he is letting Rerun choose someone to go on the block, but asks that Memphis trust him. Memphis reminds him that it doesn't matter whether or not he trusts him because Dan doesn't have a vote. Dan stares off in space trying to remember if that's in the rule book somewhere or if Memphis is just trying to scare him.

In typical true BB fashion - at this point - I get tired and bored watching all the idiots in the house - except Renny! (TEAM RENNY)
But Flipit - I continue on just to enjoy for your recaps even more!

Did Dan's girlfriend look identical to his sister from a few weeks ago, or am I just crazy?

It just amazes me when people over think the BB game. "Rerun is shivering and shaking and couldn't win a contest to save his life, so maybe I should make a deal to give him all the power this week? That way I can piss off my alliance AND not get to compete for the next HOH! Brilliant!"
Note to Dan: You don't need to keep up the "make the other houseguests think I'm a weak pussy" charade. Trust me bro, they're convinced.

"He considers putting Rerun and Michelle up, but he knows that whoever stays in the house will be coming after him. Yeah, but guess what? Neither one is aligned with ANYONE, so who cares?"
If he were to put up Ollie and Michelle, he would lose 2 potential jury votes. This way, he only loses Memphis, who may still vote for him, depending on who else is in the final two
Did anyone notice near the end when Memphis made that remark about Fr. Dan. I did not understand what it was supposed to mean but I think its safe to say that it was a cheap shot at Dan's religion...Wasn't it Memphis who was mad about people taking shots at Dan's religion a few weeks ago. Yet, now that you are mad at him, you have a right to make similar remarks? What a hypocrite. I'd be happy to see him go soon, although Jerry needs to go first.

Dan can still save his alliance if he or memphis win the veto.
The deal was simply that Ollie picked someone on the block and the other person for the veto.
IF dan thinks strategically, he could either play to win the veto and take off Memphis (OR simply assure that memphis wins the veto) so that Ollie (as stated in the deal) pick the replacement for the block which wouldn't be Memphis!
Again, thats wishful thinking because Dan is in fact an idiot!

Yes, Memphis said if he had to put his faith in "Father Dan," then "God save us all." I thought it was pretty funny. I can see why it might seem hypocritical but he was making it in a diary room confessional and not yelling SCREW YOU PEOPLE HOOOONK JUDAS BURN IN HELL to his face, so that's why I thought it was funny.

how did these two d.r. gems about the competition not get mention
memphis: "i busted one right in michelle's face."
michelle: "i got pounded"

ok next season can we get a nix on people who swear on the bible, catholic schools, or their children and then go back on it? i'm sick to death of that crap. i have no problem with lying in big brother but swearing on things that are supposed to mean something to you is kind of sick.
also.. what was up with the hoh contest? was dan the only one who got the dress in warm layers and wear your rain slicker memo? everyone else seemed horribly unprepared (save ollie with april's gloves but really that was all her doing)

VNeck needs to suck it up and quit being such a victim about being on the block. He is as good as safe. No one will be sad to see Jerry go, Renny will vote with Keisha and Keisha wants him to stay. Even if Hoooonk wins Veto and Keisha or Renny goes up, they have the numbers- they are safe. So except for Dan not making a deal about being safe next week, this might not have been as big as a bonehead deal as it appears.
Time will tell if Dan goes down as the #2 (Dr.Will will always be #1) strategic player in BB history or one of the biggest boneheads in BB History. If he can convince everyone he just HAD to see his Monica and they were as good a safe and survive next week, I think he will take it.
11 of 30 | Posted by mrsc | Posted on August 25, 2008 7:42 AM
Actually, Dan's deal is not so bad....and remember, he only swore on everything for the FIRST deal that Ollie didn't take. On the second deal, he didn't swear on anything/anyone to Ollie. Plus, he made Ollie promise not to tell anyone about the second part of the deal, and Ollie broke that. IF he finds out that Ollie broke that, than he can have an excuse to break his part of the deal.
He's not too stupid, in my opinion. At this point, he's got EVERYONE who wins veto wanting to use it. His alliance would use it to get down Memphis and put up Ollie or Michelle, and Michelle and Ollie would use it because now they think that Ollie will have choice over who goes up. It's pretty genius, in my opinion.

Thanks for the show update. Since I live in Los Angeles I had thought about going "to be part of the live audience" but after your BB report I know I can pass now. Did they ask the audience to smile whenever the camera was on? You look very happy! Almost crazed. I hope Julie has lots of security.
I'm glad everyone is concerned about Jerry's big balls. Maybe, he's got something going on down there and that's why he's been happily married for 50+ years?
Didn't find the Fr. Dan comment offensive.
13 of 30 | Posted by Mr Dangerous | Posted on August 25, 2008 7:59 AM
Mr. Dangerous, if you read b-side's BB blogs @ bsideblog.com, he has gone to two live tapings and blogged about it- and he makes them seem like a really great experience. But he's also a HUGE BB and Chenbot fan, so that could be why.
14 of 30 | Posted by serjen | Posted on August 25, 2008 9:05 AM
Dan's plan could be genius...if he thinks it through.
It didn't matter who Ollie chose to put up. Ollie and Michelle are only two votes. Jerry is on the block. That leaves Renny, Memphis, and Keesha. As long as the remaining two of them vote for Jerry, Dan has the tie-breaking vote.
If (God forbid) Jerry wins the veto, Dan can put Ollie up. Deception and back-stabbing are part of the game, and all the players have used those methods to one degree or another. All the posturing about "ethics" is just that: posturing.
But if all goes as planned, Dan can send Jerry home.
Loved Dan's "covert" shout out to his fellow "Renegade" Memphis during Dan's "why I nominated you" speech.
15 of 30 | Posted by cattyfan | Posted on August 25, 2008 9:26 AM
Is Dan forgetting that Ollie totally broke his word week one by turning on his alliance with Dan and Brian? Dan's an idiot for making the deal in the first place but even more so if he sticks to it. Grow a pair, win the veto and put up Ollie, Dan!
16 of 30 | Posted by carriec | Posted on August 25, 2008 9:38 AM
Dan will keep his word and not put up Ollie if the veto gets used.
The only way the veto gets used is if Memphis or Jerry wins it (chances? slim to none), because nobody else wants to go up in his place. I would love to see either Ollie or Michelle win PoV, use it on Jerry and put either Renny or Keesha up for eveiction. How great would that be? I guess if Jerry wins PoV that scenario plays out as well.
How do so many people use words inappropriately? Reiterate, Rerun? Come on.
And Dan, I expected more out of you... recluse instead of reckless? I don't think you meant Renny lives in seclusion from the rest of the world...but I guess that does kind of describe the houseguests at this point in time, doesn't it?

Dan's plan will be brilliant or blow up in his face. Either way, it makes for more interesting BB than it has been lately. So, thanks Dan.
Memphis's gray v-neck shirts are driving me crazy!!!! I keep getting flashbacks to Dustin! Yuck!
19 of 30 | Posted by suckitbitches | Posted on August 25, 2008 12:34 PM
I love the recaps
Just wondering....did anyone else find themselves turning down the volume when Dan came on last night then having to turn it up when the other houseguests came on
His students must be deaf.
20 of 30 | Posted by brittanyro | Posted on August 25, 2008 2:33 PM
Okay...
Dan is definitely related to that insufferable screaming Billy Mays.
I do not have a doubt in my mind.
21 of 30 | Posted by badassbtch | Posted on August 25, 2008 9:22 PM
I think if people watch the live feeds, their opinions of a lot of the houseguests would change immensely.
22 of 30 | Posted by serjen | Posted on August 26, 2008 9:00 AM
Serjen - Without giving away any gameplay or results, give us a little thumbnail sketch of what these people are like on the feeds.
23 of 30 | Posted by Dirty Sanchez | Posted on August 26, 2008 9:07 AM
I watch BB After Dark and it has made me think differently in two ways:
1. It's a lot more boring in the house than they portray in primetime and
2. Michelle is a future alchoholic, if not already.
24 of 30 | Posted by suckitbitches | Posted on August 26, 2008 9:07 AM
dirty sanchez
Without giving away the game here you go
Keesha: talks about the others all the time, bad bad drunk
Reeney: super cool
Michelle: sulky (always)
Ollie: Blah
Jerry: Talks about others all the time
Dan: smart, never gets emotional
Memphis: Blah, hangs with Keesha alot
25 of 30 | Posted by mistichristie | Posted on August 26, 2008 11:29 AM
Thanks Flip it! Loved the letter from home!!! And how adorable you look, even out of focus in the audience!!!
Hmmm, does that mean April is up there with most hated like Jessie!?
I wish Dan was secretly trying to rid himself of Memphis w/out doing the dirty work, and I agree, it's pretty safe unless Renny flips--loved the Dan exchange, we all know she's his first and only GF--why pretend!
26 of 30 | Posted by juddfan | Posted on August 26, 2008 11:31 AM
I think the deal Dan made was pretty dumb, because even if Jerry is the one to go home Memphis seemed pissed and definitely didn't trust him anymore, AND he can't compete for HOH. What I really don't understand is if he's not trying to shake things up and really evict Memphis, why did he give so much power to Ollie to not get his "hands dirty". Like anybody cares or would be mad if Jerry left. And Jerry is only one jury vote who probably wouldn't vote for Dan to win in the end anyway. It just seemed really unnecessary.
"I knew he was a tool, but I didn't know he was this big of a tool. He's a fucking tractor." BEST closing line EVER!!!

"I think if people watch the live feeds, their opinions of a lot of the houseguests would change immensely."
I actually disagree. When I've watched the feeds (on Showtime), it actually reinforces what I already think about all of these people from watching the show. For instance, I definitely find Michelle more annoying than I already did. I find Dan just more cheesy and awesome than ever, Memphis as bland, Renny as ridiculous and hilarious, and so on.
28 of 30 | Posted by schoonie | Posted on August 26, 2008 10:11 PM
I'm still rooting for Dan actually using his brain to psyche people out. His 'loser' strategy is a bit annoying, but it definitely seems a good way to play with these people -- so far, anyone who has shown even a bit of assertiveness has got himself voted out. The rest of the crew are sheep, they're looking for a shepherd, not a wolf.
Though Renny seems pretty cranky lately.
Anyway, I fell behind in watching the eps, this is going to be old news pretty soon...

Dan is a tool. I think we was being recluse with his strategy this week.
