BB12 Sunday Afternoon: Brendon's Back

Hurricane Rachel has left the Big Brother 12 house. Now the HGs must begin to clean up the destruction left in her wake... or completely demolish the damaged structures.

For all the details on the everything that went down on the live feeds this morning, including Rachel's departure, Brendon's return and the beginning of the meetings with Brendon, please see Genie's excellent post: Early Sunday - Hurricane Rachel.

1:24pm BBT
Finishing up his chat with Britney in HoH, Brendon's just been called to the DR.

1:25pm BBT
Pool

Ragan: Was it weird.
Britney: No, not at all. We mostly just talked about his vacation.. He had a chef.
Ragan: He was probably telling him how to cook.
Britney: He had a masseuse... He said he wants to talk to everybody.
Ragan: Ragan vs Rachel...
Matt: That mighta been one of the best battles in Big Brother history.
Ragan: You think so?
Lane: Better than Jordan Russell?
Matt: Oh yeah! Cuz it got so personal.

1:30pm
They start talking about past seasons fights... Then chatter about red shirts...

Sunbathers galore..

Backyard Couch
Enzo & Kathy

Whole lotta whispering about Britney and wanting her out this week. Enzo tells Kathy he wants Britny out this week. Kathy says she's on the same page, and she's tired of Britney's game. Enzo too... They agree they have to try very hard for this week's HoH... them and Hayden.

Kathy: Otherwise I'll be sittin' up there next week.
Enzo: You, me Hayden or Brendon. But I think they want Brendon... cuz they figure if they get him out, they can beat everybody, because of the quizzes.
Kathy: She just wants to be in here all by herself...

Enzo: She talks about the same sh*t all the time.
Kathy: And it's always about her. I bet you she don't even know my brother's name.
Enzo: I tell you, if I win HoH, I'm flippin' this house upside down.
Kathy: Me too. My life is in yours and Hayden's hands.

They're bothered by Britney's constant questions...

Kathy: Rachel's only reasoning to get out Matt is because he put her up on the block.
Enzo: I think it's more important to get Britney out.

Kathy, of course, concurs. Talk turns to Britney's wealth and youth, as compared to the rest of the house. Therein, by Kathy/Enzo logic, she does not deserve the money. We return to the chorus: I wanna win HoH so bad.

***Prove it.

Kathy: Notice she don't try to flirt with Hayden.
Enzo: Cuz Hayden knows... If she gets on the block this week, she's gone.

Grumble, geumble, grouse, grouse, Britney. They plan to tell Brendon that Rachel doesn't mind which goes home this week: Matt or Britney.

Enzo: I'm gonna tell him straight up, Rachel doesn't care if it's Britney or Matt. The reason she put Matt up there was because it's easier to spell.
Kathy: I'm gonna tell him that too.
Enzo: Alls we can do is try and see what happens. But if she's in the next HoH, we're in trouble. I know he wants Matt out, but..
Kathy: That can come later.

1:54pm BBT
Enzo: Oh, here he comes... He's comin' over to see what's goin on over here. They got this whole operation going.
Kathy: (laughing) I love you, Enzo. If you and Hayden weren't here, I'd go insane.
Enzo: So the veto ceremony's tomorrow.. It's gonna be intense, cuz we don't know. Really he knows. That's it. I mean, we have a good option with those two, but..

1:55pm BBT - Brendon is out of the DR. He comes into the backyard.

Kathy: Lets see how much ass she can kiss while he's out here. Can I get you a towel?
Enzo: Here he comes...

Ragan sits down to join them. Kathy feigns that they were talking about food... Small talk about the finale...

Kathy: I'm drained from all the dynamics from yesterday.
Ragan: Me too.
Enzo: Yeah, it was a crazy, crazy day.

Kathy gets up to tend to the laundry. Enzo and Ragan start talking about Brendon and Rachel... Ragan reinforces how untrustworthy Brendon is.

Ragan: He keeps saying to me, Ragan, you're an emotional player. I'm an emotional guy, but every move I've made in this game is strategic. He's the one willing to give up the whole game for someone he met a month ago.

Ragan's making an attempt to sell Enzo on the horrors of Brendon... or perhaps he's just enjoying hearing himself pontificate. Talk turns to who Brendon might put up as the ReNom... and how even if Brendon names someone, no one will know until the PoV Ceremony.

Ragan: I think he's gonna try to make seals with everyone.. Because he knows his back is up against a wall. If he doesn't win PoV, he's gone.
Enzo: He's gone.
Ragan: How fabulous would that be? No Rachel. No Brendon.
Enzo: What does he want to see everybody one by one again?
Ragan: I think so. He wants to make a deal with everyone ... Britney came down, and she got the impression he wanted to talk to everybody. Everybody but me.. There's no point in that.

Talk turns to the HoH Comp from this past Thursday that'll be airing during the Sunday show tonight. They're both dreading it, because they performed so badly.

Ragan: I punched myself in the face.. and all my DRs are crying.
Enzo: At least you won a PoV. Why can't they make HoH a pool game?
Ragan: You sound like Brendon now.

Ragan: I wonder who it's gonna be... Everyone was talking at the pool, then he comes and it's just like..
Enzo: I know..
Ragan: And the f'd up thing to think of is..
BB: Matt.. Ragan.. Please go to the Diary Room.
Matt: Do we both go?
Ragan: We're like the same person.

Ragan heads inside.

**Oh, that'll help ya with Enzo.

2:20pm BBT
Matt comes out to the couch, just having finished his DR and tells Enzo it was the same thing as last night, just not in pajamas. Then he checks in with Enzo about who he thinks Brendon will put up. Enzo's detail sharing with Matt is seriously curtailed. Kathy comes outside an joins the boys on the couch, ending the current line conversation. Talk turns to when there might be another Luxury Comp and what it might include...

Kathy: I'd like to see Matt wearing a unitard, with little slipper feet in em.
Matt: I don't care. No punishment to me. I'm gonna go lay out.

Enzo: He's nervous.
Kathy: She's not.
Enzo: He says he thinks that he'll put up Britney.
Kathy: She'll talk him out of it.
BB: Kathy, please come to the Diary Room.
Kathy: Gosh, Ragan, you couldn't stay til I finished eating.

2:24pm BBT

• Ragan rejoins Enzo on the couch.
• Matt's on the floatie in the pool, chatting with Britney, then Lane, about Adderal
  
• Brendon's stretched out on a chaise lounge by the pool.

2:27pm BBT
BB: Hayden, please come to the DR.
Enzo: Man, these are fast.
Ragan: It's only one line.

Talk turns to food: cereal and junk food... Then how much they are disgusted by escargot.

Ragan: Rachel's like, I love escargot.. Because you are one of them. My favorite line that I said to her...

2:29pm BBT
Matt & Lane
Pool
Matt: Do you sometimes get scared telling the DR the whole plan, because you wonder if they...

Bubbles!

CUT TO:
2:32pm BBT
Matt's in the Pool, Ragan's got a leg in... Their discussing the coming week. Ragan wants everyone on the same page to get Brendon out.


Ragan: Probably somebody in the friendship of 6 people is gonna go home this week.
Matt: yeah.
Ragan: And if we survive this week, we're that much closer to the final 5.
Matt: ... Brendon...
Ragan: I think it's very important for everyone to go into this coming week with the same plan. And nobody can do sheisty stuff. Cuz then that's what I'll do.
BB: Lane to DR.
Ragan: I told Lane I wanna pick his brain..

CUT TO:
2:36pm BBT
HoH
Brendon & Kathy

Brendon: I wanted to talk to you, because I think she probably told you the most.
Kathy: Me, Hayden and Enzo.

Chatter to make Brendon smile

Kathy: She misses you terribly. She loves you more than anything in the whole wide world. She wanted me to emphasize that she does not want to see you in that house. She said for me, you, Hayden and Enzo to stick together, no matter what, or the 4 of us will all walk through that door. She was glad about your nominations. She wants Britney and Matt gone. Her reasonings for Matt are that he put ya'll all the block. Britney gets in her head. To me, Britney's the biggest threat. But that's gonna be your ultimate decision. There was many fights last night.
Brendon: Enzo and Hayden broke it down for me.
Kathy: The Britney/Enzo thing was messed up. I have never seen him so upset. Rachel was like, " I have no reason to Lie," Which is true. She has nothing to lose.

Kathy's doing a hard sell on getting Britney out.

Kathy: Anyway, she said we need to stick together, or we're out. Me n you. One after the other. So we've got to do something to win.

Kathy backtracks to Rachel's eviction and says she's happy she got to clear up her vote with Rachel, and it was all relative to the saboteur. They both agree that no one in this game cares a hoot about the saboteur..

Brendon sounds like he's leaning toward Britney at the moment... but his key point is that Ragan, Matt and Britney don't trust each other, and that's where the four of them - Brendon, Kathy, Enzo, Hayden - have an advantage..

Kathy and Brendon are both staging a cleaning revolt. hehe.

Kathy: Like I said, I trust y'all 100%. They don't really talk to me anyways.. except Britney, and it's always surface. I'm not down. I'm just here. I'm 40, not 20, and I don't care about the stupid things you care about. Anyway.. the look on their faces when Rachel came in was just priceless. She didn't even know you were HoH until I told her.. and we came running up the stairs and the door was locked.
Brendon: So she knew I opened up Pandora's box.
Kathy: Yeah, they told her. And she said it's my job to keep you happy..

Kathy continues sharing the minutia of Rachel's visit, per Brendon related details... It's sweet, and it appears quite genuine... or Kathy's a tremendous actress.

Kathy: She tore em up last night. Ooof! Tore em up.

Talk turns to Britney's goodbye message to Rachel. More fodder for the Britney fire...

2:55pm BBT
BB: Houseguests, this is a lockdown. Please go outside...
Brendon: Damn..
Kathy: I had the key, because of the message she left you... She wanted to make sure no one else saw it.

They walk down the stairs from HoH. Kathy makes quick pit stop. Brendon heads outside.

Brendon: Hayden, you wanna play?
Enzo: We're havin' a tournament.
Brendon: A day tournament? So are we gonna have a night...

3pm BBT
Happy Campers chatting, scattered around the backyard...

• Hayden & Enzo are playing pool.
• Brendon's on the couch, telling Kathy, Britney and Lane about his time outside the house...
  

3:04pm BBT
Hayden and Enzo trade places with Lane & Brendon..

This feels like an excellent time to have a little break and dinner before the Sunday Show Viewing Party. I'm not going far! In the event anyone's head explodes or we get a visitor from another planet dropping into the backyard, I'll add it. ;)

4:27pm BBT
Bathroom
Cams 1/2
Enzo & Hayden

The guys are nervous, because Matt's not. Both of them are wondering if Matt sold them out to Brendon...
Lane: Why should he be worried? He thinks he has us.
Hayden: So Matt think he has Ragan, Britney, one of us...
Lane: He knows he has one of y'all's votes, Britney and Ragan and Kathy...
Enzo: Why would he think he has Kathy when she overheard them talking about her.
Hayden: Kathy's playin' the game.
Enzo: Do you think he ratted on us? Why isn't he at all worried.
Lane: Well, he's already ratted on us. He ratted on Hayden when he and Kristen were up.
Enzo: Do you think I should go up and talk to him? Is he real tired? Let's wait til everyone goes to bed tonight..
Lane: I'll be the last one to talk to him before he goes to bed tonight.. That way it'll be the 1st thing in his head tomorrow. You'd think Matt'd be worried about going up, especially against another Brigade member... Say it's me and Britney up there.. Matt's with them.

In case you were wondering, Matt's still quite out of the Brigade. It sounds very much like they're still planning to push for his ouster this week.

Enzo: We gotta win the next HoH. We win, we put up Ragan and Britney. We're gonna get dirty now. Our cards are gonna show. This guy (Brendon), he's got me and Hayden's back. That's it.

Hayden goes into the WC. Matt comes walking up, asking about who's next in pool. The party breaks up.... They head back outside for more pool.

4:40pm BBT
Backyard - Couch
Matt & Lane

Lane: (kidding) I think I'm just gonna bully Ragan into giving me the PoV. Think that'll work?
Matt: Yeah. I don't have 5 grand, but I have 5 fingers that make up a fist. Why not?

Ragan comes out and joins them on the couch. Britney too.

Matt: I just want the saboteur video to play.
Lane: Every time it just gets stupider and stupider.
Matt: Ever time it just implicates someone knew. Who's next? Lane? Ragan?
Lane: (in Saboteur voice) It's the Saboteur. I'm still in the house. I have a beard.

Britney wonders if it's Rachel... Matt takes it a step further...

Matt: That's probably why she came in here, to get more info for the next video...
Lane: What if it said, "Did you like the food I gave you, and I don't have a small brain."
Matt: I think she already shot the video revealing herself while she was here...
