BB: Mr. Brightside AKA Ice-Cold Savage

JC and Brett are back together. JC got stuck as a Have-Not, when it was Angela’s turn (she’s only been a Have-Not once, before). Meanwhile, this is JC’s second time as a Have-Not. This occurrence will definitely feel to JC, like #Tangela is getting the opportunity to conspire against him. JC will then plot a counter-attack.

It’s not as easy to do, in truth, as it is to do, in theory, but JC is going to rally all of the misfit toys, on the bottom of the island: himself, Brett, Hay, Sam – and lead a revolution.

This is a case of ‘the enemy of my enemy, is my friend.’ Rockstar recanted and made a secret pact with Brett, after banging pots and pans at him, and this bought her a few more weeks of safety.

JC needs to, as I said before, drop his crush on Tyler, ignore his utter dislike for Angela, for a moment, and work with her and Kaycee to get rid of Tyler – since Tyler has outright defied JC, when it comes to taking out Angela and Kaycee. That’s what you get, Tyler, for turning down a promising idea, for a big move.

If Hay wasn’t the only one up there, in front of the pie of doom, Tyler would have thrown the last HOH comp and would have been able to compete, for HOH, next week. But Hay was up there, so Tyler had to win, instead of taking a chance on a Hay HOH week, even if there was a strong probability Sam would have gone home, instead of Tyler.

So, Tyler is HOH – but that makes him vulnerable, next week – when he can’t cuddle with Angela, up in the HOH room. What’s the post-HOH plan? Angela, Brett, Hay and JC need to strike now! Tyler’s defenses are down. It’s like the Death Star. Get a shot in, before the shields come back up.

Tyler is trying to angle for Kaycee or Angela to do his dirty work for him and get rid of JC – since if JC goes to the jury, hating Tyler, there’s no way Tyler can win. All of the people who Tyler has promised a Final Two: Kaycee, Brett, JC and Sam (even Angela, if you count showmances) need to compare notes and exchange receipts. Get out the snake!

My money is on JC, since Hay is still bumbling around, running into walls. Like Scottie, Hay doesn’t know when to stop talking.

Hay asks Tyler if Brett, Angela, and Kaycee are all in an alliance, with him (Level 6/4) – because Hay caught them, all celebrating together, last week. What do you think Tyler is going to say to that question, Hay?!?! Of course, Tyler is going to deny and make up a cover story!

Hay then asks Tyler if she is the target, this week. What do you think Tyler is going to tell you, Hay!? Of course, Tyler denies this. Even if Hay was the target, Tyler wouldn’t tell her this, to her face! Why ask?

Later, in the hammock, the continuously beleaguered Scottie asks Hay, to her face, if she has Final 2s, with almost everyone in Foutte, including Scottie. Why would Scottie ask Hay that?! There is no way, on this green earth, that Hay would ever admit to multiple Final 2s, to Scottie’s face. Of course, regardless of the truth, Hay is going to deny this and say she only has a Final 2 with Scottie. Again, don’t ask!

Scottie then tells Hay that he is the pawn. Wino Hay cries into her alcohol, that night – and doesn’t realize that, what else would Tyler tell Scottie?!? On what planet, would Tyler ever tell Scottie, to his face, that he’s the target?? Of course, Scottie’s the target, Hay!! Kaycee eventually comforts Hay and Kaycee didn’t use the veto, so Scottie is going home (yet again).

Whether it’s Hay or JC, someone needs to fire the first round, at Tyler, for the sake of the season, at least. Geez! Get out that fake Savage, Tyler.

Hay’s youth is showing. She’s very smart, but only 21 and impressionable. She’s mature, an ‘old soul,’ for her age but her adult life has only just begun.

Hay is completely on the outs and it’s really sad. However, especially since production is giving her a bulletproof edit, because she is so young, CBS might think they have a winner – a new, young star, who can come back in future BB seasons and play better – like Boston Rob when he first started out.

Then we can see the evolution of Hay, throughout the seasons of the show, like the aforementioned Rob. That might be a better future for Hay, after striking out, this season.

JC has been getting into real hot water, with Tyler, but if he can cease and desist, I will continue to support him. What’s going for JC, strategically, is that Tyler needs him. JC isn’t going anywhere.

On the personal side, JC should dump his romantic feelings for Tyler, like he did for Fessy. Only talk to Tyler on a game level, because right now, JC is coming on too strong, and I don’t want JC to take himself out of the game.

My strategy for JC (and Kaycee) was to avoid being HOH, since that puts you on the spot and forces you to show your cards. However, if you are going to remain in the shadows, you also have to be ready to go up on the block, as a pawn.

The division of labor that has worked for Level 6, is that people like Tyler and Angela, take the heat, as HOH, and the ninjas, the shadow masters and the moles, like Brett and Kaycee, take a different sort of heat, going up on the block, next to the target.

JC hasn’t touched the block, which is great. But he hasn’t taken the other role, as the ‘face’ of the organization: the HOH. I don’t want him to touch the block, so it may be time for JC to win a HOH and put some muscle behind his punch.

JC really wanted to win the last HOH, with the spinning and the pie of doom, but he was first out, as usual. Still, for this week, at least, JC will get what he wants: Kaycee won her second veto; Scottie will go home (again).

JC has also calmed down, to Tyler, at minimum, on his real plans to evict Angela and Kaycee. However, next HOH comp, JC needs to push his crushes, on Tyler and Brett, to the side and put the pedal to the floor. This is JC’s time.

This battle-back is just a setback (Rewind. Groundhog Day, Doctor Who). Get rid of Scottie. He was already voted out and has outlived his usefulness.

Scottie doesn’t know when to stop talking. The juice isn’t worth the squeeze or having Sam (!) as a swing vote. Hay just needs a light touch, and she will get rid of Sam, and then be evicted, the week after.

A bitter jury is a lame tactic, but it’s still a tactic. This is why I have been pushing for the Level 6 civil war to happen sooner, rather than later – so that there will be, at least, someone from Lvl. 6, in the jury, with enough BB mist, to sway the vote. It’s a counter-intuitive strategy, but going forward, it seems jury management will include more than just GBMs.

August 24: “This doesn’t make sense.” RIP Scottie

“Yes, Level 6 doesn’t care about Bay and Rockstar’s jury votes, but as more Foutte members join the jury, they will form a voting bloc, with their own definition of reality and their own demands for justice. By the time the Level 6 people hit the jury, the narrative, for the finale, will be set, and it will be too late.”

I am glad #Tangela will be cancelled, even post-BB20. I never saw the attraction. Their personalities just don’t click. Angela, the Queen, deserves someone better than the villain, ‘Interview with the Vampire,’ Tyler.
