Back in the house, before the eviction ceremony Allison informs Josh and Sharon that the house is now voting for Amanda and Alex. Josh and Sharon want Matt and Natalie out, but agree to vote for Amanda and Alex so that they don't have a target on them being the odd man out. Josh then tells Allison that he is gearing up for the HoH competition and win he wins he has all the right comments to say to someone. Allison asks if he is referring to her and he tells her, "Oh we will see." Allison looks like she doesn't have a clue why he is upset.
The competition takes place, Sharon and Josh win and the only ones that are happy for them are James and Chelsia who feel safe from nomination. Allison makes a remark that they are rubbing it in everyone's face and that no one is happy for them. They go back in the house and the argument continues between Allison and Josh. James pulls Josh away.
Ryan asks Allison what she did to piss off Josh and Allison plays dumb. Ryan asks Josh and Josh says he doesn't like how she looks and that she is a stuck up snob. At this point Ryan thinks that Josh is psychotic and has shown that by first going off on Amanda for no reason and now going off on Allison for no reason. In the DR Allison throws a hissy fit and says that she is going to put up with any man talking to her that way or treating her like that. We found out from the live feeds that Allison felt "threatened" and Allison even stated that Josh threatened her, causing her to get BB to rule that Josh must stay 5 ft away from her. Josh is later shown laughing with Natalie and Sheila about how stupid Allison is to say that he threatened her.
Allison proves she is the definition of clueless when she tells Ryan that everyone in the house is intimidated by her and that that is the reason why they want her out. Ryan still being clueless himself about the whole lesbian lovers lie Allison started with Sheila doesn't bother to argue with her. However that later backfires at him when Allison starts accusing Ryan and Matt of not sticking up for her. Ryan is clearly starting to second guess her reasoning's.
The unveiling of the HoH room brought excitement for everyone except Allison who went to bed. Josh and Sharon both got pictures of their family which they loved. Then Allison saw a picture of her and Jacob which she exclaimed that she "hated!" The house guests spot a princess tiara which they assume belongs to Sharon. Some are shocked when Josh exclaims that it is his and starts dancing around with it on his head while he listens to presumably Britney Spears.
In the HoH room Josh tells Sheila and Adam that he is so pissed at Allison because he knows she was behind the whole lie. Being gay he does not find the joke a bit funny because it is such a sensitive subject. He says that he knows Sheila didn't instigate it and that all the stories were pushed on him by Allison. Josh then goes outside because he feels that Ryan should know the truth about why he is after Allison. Ryan is shocked to say the least that Allison made up that lie. Josh leaves and Chelsia fills him in on all the details.
Ryan then goes to confront Allison who says that it was only a joke, that it only lasted a week, and that Chelsia never believed it. When Ryan tells Allison that everyone did believe them and that it was 11 days and not just a week Allison replies, "So what?" She tells him that it was a stupid joke and all Sheila's idea. He tells Allison that it makes her look manipulative and Allison calls him a jerk, telling him that she doesn't want to play the game with him anymore.
Before the food competition we got to see a little love in the house! In bed Natalie tried to cuddle up to Matt who rolled over and told her no...she finally gets him to make out for a bit. He stops, says that is all she gets. He tells her that he doesn't want her getting emotionally attached to him and that he never wants her to say she loves him. In the DR later Natalie says that he confuses her.
The food competition was a fun one, albeit maybe embarrassing one for the ladies. It was called "Big ASSparagus" and while the house guests at first thought they would be wading through slop in big overalls, it was really about matching up pallets of asparagus to your partners weight. Each of the four non-head of household couples, represented four food groups. If they guys guessed the girls weight within 10 pounds with the asparagus they get their fill of that group of foods that week.
So the men put on farmers overalls and the women put on asparagus costumes complete with a hat made out of
asparagus. They women sat on one pallet while the men filled up tubs with asparagus and lifted them (with the help of the HoH couple). They had 5 minutes to get the weight as close as possible. At the last minute both Matt and Ryan add a little extra asparagus to their piles.
The results were good for the house guests...for the most part at least.
James and Chelsia went first. Chelsia weighed 117 pounds and James had 113 pounds of asparagus. The house was thrilled because it meant that they got beverages and snacks all week.
Adam and Sheila weighed in next. Sheila weigned 131 pounds (she claims that the hat weighed at least 15) and Adam had 140 pounds of asparagus. They won fruits and vegetables for the house. Sheila was happy because together her and Adam finally won something and Adam was happy because he felt like it got her off his back.
Remember the extra asparagus that Matt added at the last minute? Well he should have added a little bit more. Natalie weighed in at 116 pounds, but Matt only had 99 pounds of asparagus on the scale. The house lost out on the carbs and a feast for the week. Natalie felt like they let the house down.
The little bit extra definitely helped Ryan and Allison though! Allison weighed in at 120 and Ryan had 110 pounds of asparagus. Because of that little bit extra they got the house meats and cheeses. Overall the house was very pleased...even if they weren't wearing the most complimentary outfits.
After the food competition the fight between Josh and Allison started up again. This time she came into the kitchen and picked it with him. Sheila tried to get Allison to leave him alone but she wouldn't. Josh heads upstairs and Sharon tells him that he has to stay away from Allison. She tells him to discreetly have all the house guests except for Allison and Ryan come to the HoH room. Josh calls them all and tells Ryan that they are not invited. Very discreet!
In the HoH room Josh explains to everyone why he is so mad about the lie and tells them that he is not going to take Allison's bait. They all agree that Allison needs to go up for eviction and wonder who they should put against Ryan and Allison. Sharon said they had to talk about it. Downstairs Ryan tells Allison that this is all because of her lie. She tells Ryan that she can get Josh to turn and be on her side again. Ryan walks away. Later Allison goes up to the HoH room to kiss Josh's ass and try to get him on her side. He plays along but neither of them are stupid enough to believe that everything is OK.
Before the nomination ceremony Allison says that she knows she will go on the block and that there is only so much manipulating she can do. Adam and Matt are both concerned that they will end up on the block. James says that because they were so successful the previous week, that he and Chelsia have a target on their back.
The nomination ceremony itself wasn't much of a surprise. Allison and Ryan were nominated, as were Matt and Natalie. Josh says it is because they are the two strongest couples in the house, that it is a game and there is only one winner. Afterwards Matt is pissed because he is nominated again, for the second week in a row. Ryan knows that it is because of Allison's like and says it is her fault. Allison tries to get the last word in saying that she is going to fight for the POV, win it, and then start getting her revenge against Josh. Thankfully though the editors let us have Josh's last word instead. "Allison messed with the wrong man. She lied, back stabbed and manipulated." Go Josh!
