Big Brother 16: Nominations Spoiler and Aftermath

The Nomination Ceremony began around 10:15am BBT.  Barring any very last minute changes, we expect the nominations to go as follows:

1. Nicole will nominate Amber and Victoria, and 
2. Derrick will nominate Jocasta and Caleb. 

1:14pm Feeds are Back AND Nicole Pulled a Surprise!! 

NICOLE nominated Amber and DONNY.
DERRICK nominated Caleb and Jocasta

Details below... 

Caleb's nomination is completely voluntary.  He wanted to go up so he could save Amber, his reluctant queen,  the agony of being on the block.  Caleb plans to voluntarily throw the Battle of the Block, so he stays on the block and she comes off.

There is no malice in any of the nominations.  All of them are just placeholders.  The mutual intent and goal of the week is to backdoor Devin.  Having Caleb on the block also provides an extra insurance policy, in the event Devin gets picked to play the PoV, he will have to fight for it against "Beast Mode Cowboy."

If you'd like more details, we've got plenty!  Please check out any or all of these previous posts:

HoH Room
Devin and Nicole
Jacosta is in the HoH Bathroom

Devin: I have only 1 question..  Why Donny?


Nicole: It was either gonna be Victoria or Donny.. and Victoria's one of my closest friends in the house.  I don't talk to Donny as much.  I love Donny.  Dethrone me.  I don't care.  I absolutely love him.
Devin: I was more upset when I saw it was Donny and Jocasta.  Amber and Caleb, ok whatever.  But I know in my heart of hearts that they're safe this week, as long as I don't get pulled for the Veto.  That makes me feel good.  Between the both of them
Nicole: We had to put up 4 pawns because you are the target.  It was a hard decision.
Devin: Don't feel bad.
Nicole: I do feel bad.  I freakin' love Donny.  I didn't know what to do.. It was him or Victoria..

Devin: It's a brilliant game move.  I respect that. Just know that at the end of the day, I see it for what it is.  This is a game.
Nicole: It's a compliment, Devin.  People know you're a beast.

Nicole: That was the hardest thing I ever had to do... and I didn't even cry.
Hayden: You only messed up your lines 15 times.

Nicole: They don't show that part.   I felt like Brittany was gonna kill me with her eyes.  Donny was crying to me.
Hayden: He was crying?  Oh shit..
Nicole: I asked him who he trusts, and he said me, but I just put him on the block.  If Caleb decides not to throw it, then he will be on the block.
Hayden: Even if it's still him and Amber, we can easily flip the house and get Amber out.  Honestly, the best case scenario..

They move into the main HoH room..

Nicole: Donny lied.
Hayden: He trusted Christine, but I don't think he does any more.
Nicole: Why would he run his mouth and say that stuff?
Hayden: His head's not in the game.
Nicole: I feel so bad.
Hayden: Donny is awesome, but gamewise, his head is not in the game, because he's so nervous the bad guys are taking over the house.
Nicole: Now he thinks I'm one of them.

Hayden: Know what would've been awesome, since you got 1st draw?  If you put up Caleb and Jocasta..
Nicole: He said I could, but I didn't have any reasons to, and it would've looked really sketchy..  I don't want Brittany to be mad at me, and she is.  Does everyone realize they're not the targets?
Hayden: Brittany was talking to me, and she said, I'm just so mad that the good people keep getting put up.

Nicole: Why the frick is Amber walking around like she's so pissed when she knew she was going up?
Hayden: I don't know.  I don't even want to talk about her.

This is ongoing, but I see Derrick talking to Donny in the Storage Room.. so..

1:32pm
Storage Room
Donny and Derrick

Derrick: Before we left the room, she did have a second person she was planning on putting up.
Donny: And it wasn't me?
Derrick: It was Victoria.  We told her.  She cried.  Someone else came in the room and said something to Nicole.  It spooked her.  I told her to do whatever you wanna do.  She said I'm thinking about putting up Donny.. Whatever you believe is what you believe.  The girl is not bullshitting you.  I think you're pissed off right now.
Donny: I'm not a bit.  I'm not jumping up and down.  I've been on the block before and it's not a good feeling.  I'm  not mad at you.
Derrick:  We have something going on that we cannot talk about.. I know you're concerned about this 8 person alliance. There's nothing more I can say to you about that to try and convince you.  You're going to believe what you want.  If people still think that there's something going on between those 8 people, they're going to find they're sadly mistaken.

1:41 cont'd

Derrick: I can see you're pissed off right now.  I'm a pretty good people reader.  I think that's why I'm here.
Donny: And you can understand that after being nominated twice, I'm not my usual happy go lucky self.
Derrick: I did not nominate you.  What I do know is that we have an agreement outside of what anyone in this house besides Frankie knows, and I hope that you would honor that.  She doesn't trust me.

Derrick asks Donny to keep the communication open with him, and lets him know he won't be camping out in the HoH room alone. 

**Flipping up to Nicole and Christine in HoH..

Christine and Nicole

Nicole: I though that maybe he could forgive me more than anyone else could..
Christine: They're working together. They call themselves the double Ds. 

Nicole: Devin asked me, Why Donny?  I told him, You're the target and we put up 4 pawns.
Christine: Did you say that??! hehehe
Nicole: I was straight up like talking to him.
Christine: Awesome.
Nicole: Honestly, I feel like I did Donny so wrong.  But at the same time, I feel like he screwed me over this morning.  He obviously doesn't trust you if he was telling me to put you up this morning. He had me so convinced that you were after me, I almost called you up this morning.  He's so paranoid about the bomb squad..
Christine: Donny, Jocasta and Brittany.. I was talking to him this morning, and he was like, "So you're not the brains of it"  I was like, NO!  I was the bottom of the barrel.
Nicole: I felt like Donny would forgive me more than anyone else.. even Victoria.  If Donny hadn't done that, it would've been Victoria up there.   Also, I knew I would get Derrick's trust if I put up Donny, cuz he wanted that..

Nicole: Do you understand why I did what I did?
Christine: 100%.
Nicole: I wanted to puke.  I couldn't talk to anyone.  And I'm gonna be freakin' bedless.

Amber and Caleb

Caleb: Don't worry about it.  It's already in motion.  I'm not scared at all.  I done it for you, I done it for the alliance, and I done it for the house.  I will be mentally ready.  Devin will not beat me if he's in the PoV.  You need to calm down.
Amber: I just don't like playing against people I adore.
**I believe she's referring to Jacosta, not Caleb.

CUT TO:

Derrick and  Caleb

Derrick:  Devin knows he's goin' up.  I don't want people to think you and me made a deal like Devin and Pao did.

Derrick: As far as throwin' the comp.. Cuz that's gonna make us look.. shady as shit.

Derrick heads up to the HoH room and tells Nicole that he got into a bit of an altercation with Donny in the Storage Room, because Donny was being condescending. 

Caleb joins them up in the HoH.  Derrick advises Christine to be careful what she says to Donny, because he's sharing what she tells him.. This is ongoing..


The feeds are absolutely buzzing! Spark em up!! If you haven't gotten the feeds yet, here's a 2 day free trial.  I recommend you go with the Season Pass option.  It's a better deal, and it's a one time charge, so there's no cancellation hassle.

Still to come today:  The Battle of the Block!  We'll be back in a bit with all the info on that!  Taking a little break now..  Please mind the critters while we're out.
