His head touched the glass. Right now, Maggot is beside herself with joy. Janelle and Howie have taken Kaysar into the workout room to update him on everything. It’s their first chance to talk.

This was the deal: Jen swore on her life that she would put up Ivette and Beau for the purpose of backdooring James. But Maggie just told her in the sofa room, “We’re gonna tell you who to put up and it’s not going to be any of us”. Like Dio predicted, they’ve already started working on her.

From the get-go, with nothing but pictures and first night actions to go by, I had picked Maggie as my bet (with my wife – a $5 bet) to go all the way, or at least further than her pick. I liked her at first.

Now I see Maggie and “The Friendship” (sounds like “The Craft”) as malignant and to be dispelled a.s.a.p. (not until after James, though), with the sole exception of Jen. I like Jen.

This action with Jen by Maggie is really disgusting. Hope they show that in the hour-long summary shows.

Let’s hope Jen gets sick of being bossed around. April’s already on the verge of jumping sides already because she can’t stand Ivette. She and Jennifer must both know that once Maggie & crew have used them to their advantage and Kaysar’s team is out, they’re the first to go.

Is there going to be another twist, or was the pressure cooker HOH competition the surprise of the week, I wonder?

Wow…who knew they taught strong-arming in nursing school? I honestly think I hate Maggie more than Crappy. At least Crappy was a bossy self-proclaimed leader on his own authority and confidence. Maggie’s bossy self-proclaimed leadership is borrowed based entirely on her pre-existing relationship to him.

I think America couldn’t stand hearing the word “Cappy” any more. It made me want to throw a hammer at Ivette’s head.

It’s now official: Jen has told April that she has no intention of keeping her deal with Kaysar. Pajama party in the HOH room. Except Beau, passed out.
