He tells her that she needs to stop worrying about him and that she can’t afford to make enemies, tells her that she needs to control herself. She reminds him again that she has to fight every day.

She tells Shelly and Jordan she doesn’t want Brendon doing the hot dog contest because he will complain about his stomach hurting later.
Kalia and Porsche are outside working out, while Adam is laying on the hammock. Everyone is now admiring a preying mantis they found in the yard earlier.
Brendon is asking Daniele what the rules are regarding someone stealing stuff. Daniele says she thinks the rule is that you can steal it, but you can’t damage it.
Most of the HGs in the backyard, a few which are drinking the wine. Brendon informs Rachel that she has had enough wine, she is already buzzed.
Shelly and Daniele are in the kitchen, and Shelly is complaining that she hates liars (re: Rachel telling Porsche that Shelly would put her up if she won HOH). ‘When do we get rid of her?’ to which Daniele replies ‘Last week’.

Adam finishes all 10 hot dogs, buns and even a raw egg in 4 mins!
9:45
After the contest, Rachel starts talking to Daniele about Kalia’s vote. Rachel asks if it is a 3-3 vote, will she vote Brendon out. Daniele hesitates with her answer as she tries to find a way to word it carefully. Rachel says the newbies haven’t won much, and Daniele says Kalia and Adam both just won a comp. Rachel tells her about Porsche saying that it hurt her the last time she voted to keep Brendon, so they won’t get her vote. Daniele tells her she will try, but Kalia plays with her emotions, and she doesn’t think it will happen. Rachel tries to convince Daniele that if Brendon leaves, she will be a bigger target in the house... but Daniele isn’t buying it, but she does tell Rachel that she will have her back if Brendon leaves. She tries to explain to her that they need to stop winning every single comp, you have to know when to hold them and know when to fold them. She tells her that “if” Brendan does leave that she will have a target off her back. She tells her that she is so close and they need to work together and make the best of the situation that they can. She tells her that her instinct has never been wrong and she finally decided that she had to either go big or go home, so that is what she did.
She promises her that after this week she will have her back and she has to depend on the fact that Rachel has hers. Rachel tells her that she is confident that she is going to win this upcoming HOH, Dani tells her that it is going to be True/False. They continue to talk as though they will be a team after this week and Brendan leaves. R says that she and B both agree that he would never make it to the end because everyone in the house is threatened by him and he would constantly be on the block and fighting to stay. R says that Jeff is not as great a competitor as he thinks he is. She says that she can not depend on him to keep her safe and Dani agrees. R says that she is so frustrated that Jeff is going to make it further than her and Dani tells her that she is selling herself short, she tells her that if she is team Dani then she needs to be more confident and stop selling herself short. She tells her that there is a difference in being confident and being cocky. R tells her that she will have her back and D tells her that she will do the same. R says that there is no competition against her and she starts taking trash about Adam and the other HG saying that they have nothing on her. They both promise to each other that they will keep their alliance a secret. The conversation turns to them going over the votes this Thursday and who they think will leave on a double eviction week - R thinks it will be Kalia. D says they will talk about that when the time comes and at 10:21 they thank each other for being on the same page and R goes downstairs to sit with Kalia, Porsche and Shelly while Brendan and Adam shoot pool.
Jeff and Jordan outside on the hammock. Jordan is worried on whether they are making the right decision. She is worried that if Shelly wins HOH, she doesn’t know who she will put up. She sees that Daniele is very talkative and been downstairs much more this week. Jeff has noticed that Shelly is kissing Adam’s and Porsche’s @$$ now. Jordan asks Jeff if he trusts Adam all the way - he says Yeah, as much as you can in here.. they think something is up with Shelly..
something is not right, but maybe Shelly is just playing everyone else, and is truly on their side.
Jeff thinks the next comp will be physical, they hope it isn’t questions, if it is T / F that is a crapshoot. Jordan thinks it will end up being her and Rachel against everyone. She thinks that Dani will just have the others do all her dirty work. They both agree that it is weird that Shelly and Dani are getting so close, Jeff agrees that she is kinda ignoring them. Jordan says that they should probably call her out on it - ask her why she is all of a sudden not as close to them. Jordan wants the order to be Dani, then Porsche, then Kalia. Jeff says Adam explained that if him and Rachel go on the block next week, they only need three votes to save him - Adam, Jordan and Shelly. Jordan says that’s right, we can’t get rid of Shelly yet. Jeff says if he wins, he will put up Dani and Kalia, because they can’t take their best friend off. He says that Dani is not his target, Kalia is. He will put her in the same situation that Kalia put him in. They say they have to win next week, because Adam and Shelly are cool with the others.
10:24
R takes B to the bathroom and fills him in on the convo and tells him that D says that she is not going to save him. She tells them that their only chance of him staying would be if Kalia or Porsche will vote to keep him and she doesn’t think that Porsche will do it but they may have a chance to work with Kalia. He tells her to just stop worrying and he goes into the kitchen to make coffee. After R uses the bathroom she goes up to B and talks very low and then B says that they are just going to have to wait and see what happens. Rachel goes to the refrigerator and offers him a beer and opens it and he ask her why she does it, she laughs and says it because it is Porsches’. He gets angry and tells her to come with him into the HN room and she goes in there and ask him not to yell at her. She tells him that he should have not come back because he is just going to turn around and leave. She argues that she doesn’t care, He tells her that she is making him livid right now because she is making it so hard for both of them. She whines that she is going to be the #1 target and he replies that it’s because “You make yourself the target”.
He is breathing heavy and is visably angry and she is non chalant about the situation. He says that he feels that she has given up and she argues to him that she is fighting, but she just fights in a different way. So he tells her that she should just play her ‘Rachel game’ and make herself a huge target. He tells her that she knows how she is behaving and her attitude is shitty, he says that everyone wants him out because he is the best competitor. He tells her to get off her ego and says that everything is about her. He tells her that her attitude is disturbing to him and he wonders if she is going to be like this after they are married. She tells him that he is so emotional and that he acts crazy sometimes, he tells her that it is because of her and the things she does. He tells her that he has fought hard so that she could stay in the game over him. He gets angry and hits the bed and says that she does not know what is going to happen. He is frustrated so much because she can not control herself, he stands up and says that he is done, she tells him “Good, be done just go”, he sits back down next to her and tells her that is he leaves then he leaves but he is tired of her saying that she doesn’t care, she immediately replies that she doesn’t care. He whispers something to her and she answers him in a normal voice and he shhh’s her and tells her that he is going to have to go to the DR and vent, she tells him to go ahead and do it. He just continues to tell her that he is frustrated and starts to lip talk and the R says out loud, “Then talk to me like an adult”. He hushes her again and they continue with their argument in a very low whisper. Brendan asks her if she ask who opened her beer is she going to say that it was her and she says no, so Brendan says that he will say that he did it. They talk in low whispers and she just responds with “No, because you will yell at me”. He tells her that she needs to learn to let things go and that when the show is over they are going to spend lots of time in therapy. She tells him that she just knows that people are talking about her behind her back and he again get frustrated with her. He reminds her that Janelle was probably the best competitor in BB history and she never won. He wants her to just be his fiance and hug him. She reminds him that she fights every single day to be here and he just asks her to stop saying that because she says it over and over again. She remind him that she loves him and that they are getting married and she hopes they don’t fight like this when they get out. Production saves everyone and calls her to the DR. It ends (finally) at 11:01 Porsche meets them at the door when they open it and asks them if they opened her beer and Rachel says “No” and P says that she almost spilled all of it because when she went to get it out of the fridge it was open.
10:41
Kalia and Dani in the kitchen, K ask D to go upstairs. She goes over her convo with R and D tells K that if she wins HOH she has to put up J/J and K says ok. D starts to go over the scenario she explains that if J/J vote to keep S over B that they are stabbing R in the front and she will be with them 100%. Dani tells her that if B leaves that J/J need to go up and they need to send Jordan out. If R gets HOH she says that she would also put up J/J because she will be so angry. She continues to point out with jellybeans how the votes will go.

Porsche goes up to the HOH and tells D and K about her beer being open in the fridge (Rachel opened it earlier). P is scared to drink it cause she thinks someone but something in it! K tells her to go and get it and they will split it. Porsche start rehashing Rachel campaigning for Brendon. Dani asks her if there was any way she would keep Brendon in the game, she says no...

Daniele jokes about her conversation this morning with Brendon about people stealing your stuff, and he thinks it might have been Shelly that took it (it was Porsche).

Jordan tells Rachel that she told Shelly earlier that they need Rachel, she can’t put her up if she wins HOH (if they kept her), and Shelly agreed.

She continues to say that all four of them did that. Shelly starts working on Dani again with her “I’m so glad that I got to know the real you this week” and Dani says “I know, me too”.

Together they make a promise to each other that no matter what happens they are there for each other.

She spends the next twenty minutes reassuring her that they are good.

They both don’t understand how R can be friends with someone that is constantly making little jabs and comments about her both behind her back and to her face.

Adam is sleeping and J/J are outside - waiting for it to be safe for them to go to bed.

Dani and Shelly in the living room talking very quietly, Shelly is just shaking her head yes and saying “right” every second or so. Dani seems to be discussing how she thinks that Rachel is going to get votes to keep Brendan but how she doesn’t feel that she has the votes. Porsche walks by and Dani tells Shelly that she finds her disgusting. Dani confides to Shelly that she needs to make moves that show that she is trying to get out from under her father’s shadow. Shelly tells her that she has every right to want to do that. She tells her that she is playing a wonderful game and she is proving that she is deserving to be here every day.

Jeff says that his main target is K and Jordan says hers is P. D tells Jordan that K has always told her that no matter what happens she will never put Jordan up. Jordan says that she doesn't understand that because she doesn't talk to her. Jeff says that he is going to tell R and B to their face that they are not voting for him to stay. They all agree that R is crazy and that she is impossible to control. Dani says that next week would have to be Rachel, Adam or Shelly. Jeff tells her that for sure he will put up Kalia, because of what she did to him, and says he also isn't sure about Porsche. Jeff asks, "so where do we go from here", and Daniele says that they (J/J) are not her targets, and she can promise Kalia will not put up Jordan. After about two hours of discussion, they end the conversation saying it doesn't make sense to go after each other. They can work together to get the others out (R/A/S/P/K). The three of them agree that they are all on the same page and agree to trust each other regardless of what they hear and go inside to bed.
After the talk, Dani heads up to the HOH room and Jeff and Jordan have a quick discussion in the bathroom.. they talk over some of the points Dani made, and seem to have noticed that Dani kept bring up Rachel, Adam and Shelly as targets, and it doesn't seem like they can trust her. Regardless, it seems that Brendon will be going home.
At 5:30a, Jeff and Jordan head to bed.
Will the Jeff, Jordan and Daniele deal stick, or are Jeff and Jordan on to Dani's plans? Is Brendon guaranteed a second exit from the house? Where will Rachel's allegiance fall if her Bookie is evicted?
