AND THEN THERE WERE 3
 
If you missed Kaysar on Live! with Regis and Kelly, George's special eviction guest or Dr Will making "sweet sweet love" to a camera in the backyard, pop over the the video downloads section of the site. 

Here we are, another Tuesday and not much is goin...hey! It's Julie. This either means we'll get 6 more weeks of winter (if she sees her shadow) or it's an eviction show. I'm going with the winter thing but let's see what unfolds. It is a live eviction episode. 

Time to catch up on the jury houseguests who were moved from Cabo San Lucas because of Hurricane John. The new jury house is a desert oasis. Marcellas isn't thrilled dealing with Hurricane Howie in any location. Howie and Marcellas trade barbs in the pool. Howie thinks Marcellas was kicked out because they hated him. Howie does NOT like Marcellas. I have a strong suspicion the feels are mutual. So, the jury waits for Danielle and George to come home. Seeing Danielle was quite a shock. Hugs all around. Danielle was honored to see how shocked they were. George sneaks into the house wearing a boxing helmet. They almost spit out their wine seeing George. Howie holds a grudge against George and slings some dirt at him. They watch the DVDs George brought. Howie and George get into in with plenty of ugly. George gets up to leave, having had enough of Howie. Danielle suspects Howie is mad because George outplayed him. Howie continues to rant and James points out the Howie isn't getting that backstabbing is part of the game. Listen to the whole argument/name-calling session. (MP3, 1:14, 289Kb) 

Booger and Dr Will are confident but the eyes are on the Veto prize. They decide that this Double Date plan was a genius plan. Erika suspects Janelle might win and kick Erika out. Dr Will says Janelle might even send him home. Erika doesn't trust them a lot, just enough. Dr Will says he'll send Janelle home if he wins the Veto. Dr Will tells Janelle that Erika is griping about Janelle and everything. Janelle is sick of Erika. Erika, apparently thinks she can beat Chilltown in the final two. Janelle thinks Erika is playing for second-palace at most. Dr Will wants the showmancing and flirtmancing to continue. Dr Will and Janelle get cozy, a little, in the red room. Dr Will plays emotionless and Janelle tries to play that way but she can't. She suspects him of using her emotions against her. 

Time for the veto. Outside is a giant 4 sectioned cubicle, pools with goo and a black curtain. It's the Paris Hilton veto game, (When the) Stars Are Blind. There are clues hidden under the black curtains and the houseguests must look through the goo-pool for houseguest heads. If they solve the puzzle correctly, they will hear a bell. If they hear nothing, they must keep trying. Janelle and Erika were nervous. There are multiple right answers to some clues but only one set of 100% correct answers. Booger wants to get faces oin the board, then work backwards from there. Dr Will wanted to do the same thing but he didn't care...he wasn't going home this week anyway. Dr Will didn't recognize Allison, thinking it was Jennifer Aniston. Dr Will rings first with 9 out of 10 wrong.  Meanwhile Erika and Janelle kep working away. Nakomis and Diane are giving the girls headaches. Janelle got it first, that shouldn't be a surprise. What is a surprise is that Janelle kissed Dr Delicious, on the lips. Erika was frustrated to get that close and lose it. Janelle felt exactly the opposite.  

Janelle has to choose between Erika and Dr Will. I don't think Erika can sway Janelle, although she'll try. She says Janelle can't beat Dr Will. Does she really want to go up against either of them? Dr Will heard what they said and reported it back to Booger. The girl head to the HoH room and Erika tries using the "Dr Will is a  doctor and doesn't need the money defense." Janelle tells her she'll think about it but Erika wants to know in advance if she's going home. Erika promises Janelle that she'll take her to the final two, after pointing out that Chilltown wouldn't look her in the eye and say that. Erika is relentless and wants to know why they should let Chilltown continue to lie. Janelle almost looks convinced and Dr Will thinks he's going home. He thinks it's now a mistake to go with Operation Doubledate, based on Janelle's body language. Janelle doesn't trust Erika but Erika did promise on her mom's life. Late at night, the girls go outside for a smoke and Erika continues making promises and casting doubt on Dr Will's character. They tell each other what Dr Will told each of them, which happened to be exactly the same things. Janelle says she hates Chilltown and Erika hates them more. They say that they screwed up the game. Is this the true Janelle or a great act. 

Time to talk to the final four. Booger is asked about BB:FF. It was a stressful hour for him, especially being on the block. Julie says they've been housemates, bedmates and showermates. Will their bonds continue outside the house? Dr Will says he and Janelle will be close friends. Janelle agrees. Erika says the same about Booger. Outside the house Booger hints that Erika won't be in the final two and that the showmance isn't really real. The house is like an incubator. Dr Will still hates everyone. Janelle is surprised that Danielle is out of the house. What will Janelle do with the PoV? She stands and takes herself off. Booger must name Dr Will as the replacement nominee by default. 

Janelle has the only vote to evict. Firstly, Erika states her case by saying Janelle is a fierce competitor and intelligent. She thinks Janelel will make the right choice. Dr Will says there was alot of hate o nmthe house and now a lot is in the jury house. For his personal safety, she should keep him. Janelle casts her vote infront of everyone and despite being friends with both of them, she's done making mistakes. She evicts Dr Will. Booger seems sad to see his friend gone and this is all new for Dr Will. Janelle talk about how surprised Booger was, cut to a shot of Booger, mouth agape. 

Julie says Dr Will looked invincible. He says that he did the best he could with a giant target on your back. His strategy was to win nothing and he did the best he could in the circumstance. What went rong with Operation Doubledate? You just can't cpntrol everything and you control what you can. Dr Will didn't underestimate Janelle, he underestimated Erika. He thinsk that maybe Janelle made a mistake. It doesn't ruin the potential of a friendship in the future. Was he playing her? Yes, hefeels close to her but it was a game and now it;s different. Yes, there was chemistry but they were playing one another. Dr Will is shocked to have made it to 4th place. What happnens to Booger.Erika now? They're strong and he'll have to fight. Dr Will doesn't think either of them would have made it as far as they did without each other. Dr Will is a competitor and appreciates the game they played. No hard feelings. 

The final HoH challenge is here. Based on past years, this is probably a mutliple-stage HoH challenge with the winners of rounds 1 and 2 competing in round 3 for the HoH. Outside is a mountian or volcano of some sort with rock-climbing grips on it. They climb onto one side of Mount HoH and face outward, grabbing a key over their heads. If they let go of the key or their feet touch the mat, they're out. Last one on the volcano advances to Round Three. With no fanfare, the challenge begins. Booger jumps off in the live finale (after 21 seconds!) with an odd question for Julie about Richard Hatch. He knows they have to take him to the finals. Erika says no way and Janelle will hold on anyway. Booger looks PISSED! 

Back from commercial and Julie reads from her notecard. The ladies are asked to listen up and Janelle let go of her key with one hand. Erika wins the first part live. This has never happened and Janelle protests tha tshe didn't. Wow. All of that work setting up an elaborate endurance challenge for naught. As the show closes, the girls talk and Booger just stares ahead. 

The next episode airs Thursday, September 7th at 8PM Eastern.
