This article contains spoilers from the Big Brother live feeds that have not been revealed in the episodes yet, including who won the Veto and whether or not it was used.
Here's the breakdown of where things stand in the Big Brother House as of Tuesday evening, immediately following the Veto ceremony:
Head of Household
Shelli
Pre-Veto Nominations
John
Jason
Won the Veto
Vanessa
Veto used on...
Jason
Veto replacement nominee
Audrey
On the Block
Audrey
John
Vanessa won the Veto, used it to save Jason, Audrey was nominated -- though it sounds like she decided to sit out the actual ceremony -- and if the house gets what it currently wants, Audrey will be evicted on Thursday night. Of course, there are still a couple of days between now and then, which leaves plenty of time for more twists and drama.
Audrey's name has been tossed around as a backdoor open, pretty much since Battle of the Block happened. Shelli has been trying to work with Audrey, but things keep getting back to her and Clay that suggest Audrey can't be trusted. From a feed perspective, I can see why Audrey would be very hard to work with. Truths and mistruths seem to get mixed up when Audrey talks and relays information, and it's really difficult to know which is which. It can be difficult to keep up wiht her when she's explaining things, which may be her intention. It worked well enough for her early in the game, but people seem wise to it now. Between that and the things Shelli's been hearing from other people about Audrey's conversations, not to mention the conversations Audrey has had directly with Shelli and/or Clay, it seems like Shelli has reached her limit.
At this point, it looks like Audrey failed to prove herself loyal and trustworthy enough to be an ally to Shelli, Clay and the rest of their small group, and she knows too much to be kept in the game. Her credibility is shot, so there's a good chance she'll go on Thursday, barring a major twist or some other event in the house that turns people toward her and/or against Johnny Mac.
The Feeds don't show ceremonies, so we didn't see this one play out, but from the sound of it, Audrey didn't show up for the Veto Ceremony, and missed her own nomination. This happened after she spent what may have been hours in the diary room on Tuesday, while the rest of the house wondered what was going on and when the Veto ceremony would take place.
Was she sick? Or just too upset to do the ceremony? It's not clear, but hopefully Wednesday's episode will fill in some of the blanks. And it'll be interesting to see how the Ceremony played out.
In the meantime, I'm glad Jason has been taken down. I didn't like seeing either Johnny Mac or Jason on the block, but of the two of them, John is safer there than Jason would have been. By a small margin, but still, better safe. As for Audrey, it seems like she's not taking this well, as she's been off the feeds since she emerged from the diary room before the Veto Ceremony(she quietly went to the Have Not room, and I don't think we've seen her on the feeds since).
There was a brief snippet of feeds between fish where Vanessa said she went in the HN room and offered Audrey some Advil, so it doesn't sound like people are being harsh with her. It's all game. Of course, in the Big Brother house, game and personal tend to blend together more and more with each passing week.
We'll have to wait and see if she bounces back and tries to fight for votes between now and Thursday.
