Audrey’s advice – “Relax have a good day don’t try to overthink anything”

The afternoon feeds were dominated by Austin trying to recover after Jace became the replacement nominee. Austin and Liz were looking for votes, questioning where Jeff and Jason stood, and increasingly blaming Audrey for the conflicting information moving around the house.

At the same time, Audrey, Clay, Vanessa and Shelli were discussing overlapping alliances of their own. Austin believed the game was becoming a numbers battle and started looking for a way to pull together players outside Audrey’s group before Jace’s expected eviction.

3:00pm Cabana Vanessa and Audrey They think Clay is the common denominator in the house because everyone trusts him. Vanessa says Clay started the rumor after overhearing the two of them talking. Vanessa tells her that Austin likes Audrey. Vanessa wants to get the “Five” together and make a final five deal. “At least we can have some allies we can count on” 3:09pm Hammock Austin and Liz Austin tells her that Liz needs to talk to Jeff and make sure he knows Audrey is making it up saying Austin was targeting Jeff. Austin says Audrey wants to call a house meeting. “Audrey is f***g running this f*****g game everyone is afraid of her” Austin wants to call a house meeting and tell them Audrey had a final two with him. Austin – People are starting to talk.. Liz – I just hope we aren’t the next two Austin – If Audrey is in charge we’re f*****d Austin – We can’t trust Clay Austin is worried he’s losing Vanessa right now. He’s thinking they have to pull Day in. He believes Clay and Audrey want them to target Day. Austin plans to talk to Jason. He isn’t sure whether Jason is with Audrey, but decides it’s worth the risk. Austin thinks they can get the votes to keep Jace. His seven votes to save him include Jeff. Austin about Audrey – She’s a chameleon, she’s a changeling Austin says if Jace goes home they will be seen as vulnerable players. That is a plus, but they also might get taken out as easy targets. Austin says it’s all about the numbers; they need enough votes to flip the house. Austin – Audrey and Clay are going to win this game right now Austin isn’t after Jeff anymore. He wants to work with him. Austin tells Liz to work on pulling Jeff in. Austin says if he wins HOH he’s taking Audrey out. He’ll find a way. They are shocked Clay is really working with Audrey. Neither of them trusts Shelli. Austin – “She’s a sheep” Liz – Does Audrey trust you Austin – “It doesn’t matter if she trusts me or not she’s using me” Austin thinks the only thing that matters is if they can trust Jeff. He brings up Jeff telling him he had a major fight with Jackie coming in and wants her out of the game. Liz saw Jeff and Jackie talking earlier. Liz says James was super creepy the first two days. “He says really disgusting things” Austin – I know I’m sorry Liz brings up a comment James made to her that bothered her. Austin reacts with surprise. Austin is worried that things have been messed up between him and Vanessa and hopes that she realizes he’s not lying to her. Austin – I hope I didn’t lose her cause Audrey is trying to flip things Austin – “in all due respect I don’t care I don’t care what the rumour is leave me alone.. no more of this sh1t” Liz says her plan is to work on Jeff. Liz says Clay has no backbone. He’s being manipulated by Audrey. Austin thinks Clay is very smart and can lie straight to your face. Austin mentions Audrey is playing too hard too fast. If she would slow down she would be deadly. Austin boasts he’ll call a house meeting and blow it all up if he has to deal with another Audrey move. 3:26pm HOH Audrey and Clay Audrey says Vanessa and Austin want Clay out next. Clay – really why Audrey – you’re playing too many sides.. joking.. Audrey says Vanessa is a question mark but wants to have an alliance conversation with Shelli, Audrey, Austin and Clay. Clay asks if they need that. Audrey – I have alliance whiplash.. No we don’t… however if she wins HOH we’re safe Audrey suspects Jeff is pushing his own agenda. “You and Shelli both heard from Vanessa’s mouth that she doesn’t trust me” Clay – No… You said that last night Audrey – no.. Clay – I never heard that Clay explains that Vanessa told him she does trust Audrey. Clay tells Audrey his two main people are Audrey and Shelli. Audrey – Vanessa is also under the impression that you are trying to bring in Jeff. They agree Jeff makes side comments when he’s emotional. Clay says their alliance of eight is ride or die. If they can get to the final eight, they have their inner five alliance. “We’ll be sitting pretty.. it’s imperative these 8 don’t turn on each other.. we can go to the final 8” Audrey jokes about what could happen if Shelli cuts Clay near the end. Clay – y’all have to send me a cheque They agree they cannot trust Jackie and hope Jeff is serious about taking her out when the time is right. 3:46pm Austin and Steve Austin – they wanted to call a house meeting dude Steve says the only times he’s hearing Austin’s name is sympathy for the Have-Nots thing. Austin brings up someone coming to him and telling him there were lies about an all-girls alliance going around. He then told someone that there are people spreading lies about a girls alliance. Ten minutes later, someone else came to him saying that he was trying to spread lies about them saying they were spreading the all-girls alliance. Austin says it was a trick. They flipped it around and tried to pin it on him that he tried to spread the rumor. “All I was doing was repeating it.. see how that works.. now I’m the target and the target isn’t on the people that started it” (Confusing.) Austin says it’s playing too quickly. He never refers to them by name, just calls them the inner alliance or the ones on the inside, which is basically Clay, James and Audrey. Steve has to piece this together. Steve fades into the background. Steve asks about the votes. Austin says if the people on the outside try to flip it, Jace might stay. Otherwise it’s going to be unanimous. Steve – you need 7 votes.. for Jace to stay Austin – “I told Johnny Mac, me, you, Steve will continue being put on the block and told we’re pawns that’s not how I want to play” Steve thinks if Jace leaves it’ll help Austin’s game because he’ll be seen alone, but the downside is they lose a number, which makes them more vulnerable. Austin says he likes Jason but has never talked game with him. He needs to know if Jason is on the inside or outside. Austin points out that someone is trying to isolate Day so she’s the target. Austin – Everyone (Inside group) is saying to put Day up Steve – wait what Austin explains they are saying Day is the master puppeteer so that everyone targets her and not the inside alliance. Austin still won’t name the group. Austin says none of this will come back to Steve and hopes he has earned some trust with him. He says if he wins HOH, Steve is safe. Steve – so our job is to watch Jason and figure out what is up with him Austin – ya another one is Jeff too 4:03pm Jace and Austin Austin says Clay is not on their side. Jace – he just pulled me aside and said he did Austin – he’s the best ever.. Jace says he got emotional talking to Shelli. Austin says she’s in on it and knows what is going down. There are like six or seven people. Jace – there’s nothing I can do Austin says they need to swing Jason and Day. Jeff comes by. Austin says everybody’s lying. Jace – Everybody’s lying Jeff Austin says he’s so close to calling everybody out, but he’s trying to keep his head down for a week. Jeff – I would love to give you my vote but I gotta give it to Jackie Audrey pulls Austin aside. Jeff says people have been telling him things about Austin. Jeff knows it’s the same person who’s been in his ear. 4:07pm Audrey and Austin Audrey – “You, myself, Clay, Vanessa and Shelli are going to have a private meeting and it has to stay that way it’s very important” Audrey tells him Liz threw Austin under the bus. Austin acts like he believes her. Audrey – “Relax have a good day don’t try to overthink anything” 4:14pm Cabana Audrey and Shelli Audrey says Austin, her, Shelli, Clay and Vanessa are going to have a meeting and form a solid group. Audrey wishes Austin wasn’t in it but says it’s good they can utilize the different groups in the house to target each other. Shelli – I’m up for it Shelli thinks Vanessa and Day have something. She walked in on them talking and when they saw her they stopped talking. She points out James was there too. Audrey thinks she’ll be safe until a group of people forms against her. Audrey says apparently Liz went straight to Jeff and threw Austin under the bus. Shelli – Jeff told you that Audrey – mmmmhhhmmm Called that sh1t 4:23pm Vanessa and Austin They agree that in an alliance with Clay, Shelli and Audrey, they would be at the bottom. They agree Audrey can be trusted more than Clay. Austin doesn’t believe that Liz was throwing him under the bus. Vanessa – you said Audrey told you Austin – Audrey told me… she’s trying to put me against Liz it feels very set up Vanessa says Audrey thinks they are together. She and Austin talk about making their relationship appear less obvious. She tells him he needs to keep Jace cool right now. Austin thinks Jace will eventually confront Audrey this week. Vanessa thinks later on that could be good for them. They are going to get into a room with Audrey, Shelli and Clay and make a deal before any more rumors start. [polldaddy poll=8954355]
