We all thought we knew how Big Brother 11 would end but with the 2nd HoH now over and the finale night changed just a bit things will surely be rocky come Tuesday night. Following the eviction of Michele we got to see the first part of the last HoH begin. Tonight the houseguests remained on the log, well on TV at least, and we saw them get pelted by ice, rain and wind. Natalie seemed to be having the worst time of the three as she almost slipped off at least once while Jordan had a hard time only once the ice started to fall. Kevin was shaking a bit, but I think it was all a ploy to help Jordan fall and that she did. After trying to warm up, the log suddenly jolted and Jordan went slipping to her HoH doom. That left only Kevin and Natalie left to win and although it was planned for Kevin to win, Natalie didn’t go out without a fight. A few nights ago the duo discussed that Kevin would win the first part and then Natalie would go to the second, since she’s better at mental challenges. Natalie didn’t want to just give the HoH to Kevin, which made him wonder what was going on, but after swearing up and down that he would take her to the final two Natalie finally jumped off. Making Kevin the first part HoH winner and somewhat sealing Natalie’s fate.
The show then went back to live and Julie revealed to us and the final three that they would all be staying in the house until finale night. I think they thought it was a final three for the win at first, but Julie then revealed that they would play for the second HoH tonight and everything else on finale night. The last part of the HoH, eviction, jury questioning and live vote will all take place on next Tuesday’s finale. That is a LOT to cram into a two hour block and have it be live…. it should be fun. After freaking out the final three Julie then showed us Jeff’s time in the jury house. It seems the clouds have passed as Jeff, Russell and Lydia didn’t hurt him too bad but they did celebrate like they just won the $500,000. Jeff took it all in though and laughed with them, seems the jury isn’t as harsh as they make it seem when they get evicted. All seem to be rooting for Kevin to win, except for Russell. I think the best shot for either ladies to win it is to take each other, the All Stars agree as well.

We all know that lying is a big part of Big Brother but who seriously lies about getting engaged? Natalie apparently as she fell into the HoH power trip role that we all expected she would. Following the eviction of Jeff there were different emotions throughout the house. Kevin was happy that he made a big play and could look good to the jury for sending Jeff home, while Natalie was happy for getting revenge as Jeff was the reason Jessie went home. Michele wasn’t happy but she wasn’t exactly sad either. She was more angry that she is the new “big target” and realized she had to win the PoV to stay. Jordan was the obvious one to be upset and realized she was alone in the house. She could still have Michele is she played her cards right, and I think she has, but feels she’ll be going soon as well.
The game then shifted to the final two as everyone was thinking who they should take. Natalie and Kevin have been together for awhile now but Kevin realized that Natalie would probably beat him in the end, so he made a move to get Michele on his side. He offered her the chance to pair up and take Natalie out, probably at the perfect time to considering what she did about 15 minutes later. While Kevin was out of the way the three girls met in the kitchen where Natalie revealed that Kevin would be going up. Michele and Jordan were shocked as they knew the two were close but only Jordan seemed to buy the idea that Natalie really wanted Kevin up. Natalie spoke to her alone a little later to make Jordan believe they could be final two. Jordan seemed to like the idea at first but remembered later that Jeff told her to stick with Michele, which I think is probably her best bet now as well.

Big Brother always has twists and turns and tonight the last person I wanted to win HoH did… thanks to a lucky guess challenge. Following the Power of Veto ceremony Jeff and Jordan knew that one of them were going home and that it would most likely be Jeff. The two spent their last days together just trying to have fun and Jeff pumping Jordan up for a possible win. She almost wanted to quit at one point but thankfully she stayed. As the two spent their time hoping for the best, Natalie spent her time claiming all the power. She claims that she sent Jeff home this week and totally forgot that Kevin was HoH. I’m glad that Kevin finally sees that Natalie can’t be trusted, sadly he didn’t do anything about it.
Although we all know what was about to happen, Jeff did try to sway things to his side by offering Natalie a deal. He and Michele discussed what they should offer and the deal was “sweet”. The deal was that if Natalie votes to keep Jeff then Jeff and Michele would throw the HoH to her, giving Natalie a free shot to the finals. It was kind of stupid for Michele and Jeff to do, but I guess it was a last ditch effort. It seems that Natalie was somewhat buying into it but we’ll see if that’s true a few lines down.

Top Chef sent home Eve last week, someone whose name I actually know. Following Eve’s knife packing the house awoke to a new day, but still rehashing the last. The ladies weren’t happy about losing the past elimination challenge while the guys were still relishing in their win. It seems one of the bedrooms has bad luck as both Jen and Eve were in the same room. Laurine, Preeti and Jesse all remain but if one of them leave this time around I smell conspiracy! Into the kitchen the chefs then go to meet Mark Peel, a famous chef from California along with a ton of potatoes. Their task was to create a dish that featured the potato and they had 45 minutes. Everyone was then off to cook their potatoes, some made the potato the main ingredient while others made it only a component. One interesting one was sweat potato icecream…. let’s see if that works. Some drama went done between Ashley and Preeti used Ashley’s water.
It was then time for Padma and Mark to taste the dishes. Nobody really got a bad rating while they tasted and it seemed even the ice cream was good! Surprising, but I guess anything can make an ice cream flavor lately. Most chefs seemed to judge themselves worst then Mark did, he’s a nice judge for once! In the end he chose Eli, Ron and Jesse for the bottom while Jenn (again), Ash (the ice cream?) and Ashley were on the top. Guess Preeti stealing her water didn’t hurt! Jen then took home the win again, after gaining immunity the first episode, meaning she’s safe again from going home. She probably wouldn’t have anyway but I guess it’s nice.

Finally the Mystery Door AKA Pandora’s box was unleashed and it wasn’t as exciting, or maybe it was, then I had expected. Since I can’t complain about no Mystery door tonight, I’ll complain about the show intro. It seems we have gone back in time as it depicted Russell still alive and well in the house with a full color picture to boot towards the end. You would think the editors wouldn’t slack this late in the season! Ok into the game we go and we follow the nominations. Things weren’t looking so great for Jeff and Jordan as they realized that Jordan had to win the Power of Veto for the best possible scenario to occur. The two had a few somber moments while Michele was rather peppy, considering how previous days of tears. Kevin and Natalie weren’t too exciting during the period of time…. I honestly don’t even remember seeing them other then hoping they win veto.
Ok now onto the mystery door which we were teased for two episodes now. It all started when Kevin went into the HoH and saw the door with the questionmark. He read the letter saying that it is Pandora’s Box and that going inside would unleash $10,000 on the house. He quickly decided to enter into a huge room next to the HoH…. now why don’t they just USE it? Oh well, he ended up sticking his hand into the box and were it was then locked in. The house then spewing money in the backyard and the other four were able to quickly snatch it up. Nobody really realized that Kevin was missing until Natalie went upstairs to get him, he told her to find the key to unlock him but she went back down to grab more money, leaving Kevin still chained up. Jeff then ventured into the HoH where Kevin told him he HAD to unlock him or they wouldn’t get the money. That led Jeff to find the key, but he still went back outside to grab some more cash. In the end Jeff took home around $3,000, Michele took home around $2,000, Jordan and Natalie took home around $1,000 each and after being unlocked Kevin took home $600 some dollar. Not bad for living in a house, now if they would only shoot money into MY backyard!

First of all weren’t we supposed to see the Mystery Door challenge/luxury tonight? Guess not since all the filler was so much more important. It all began with the HoH competition and we finally got to see Kevin’s big slip (twice!) that we missed during the live show. That was probably the last time he fell during the entire night though as he quickly rebounded. During the HoH there was a flashback to Russell’s eviction. Michele was the only one upset since the only person she felt aligned with was gone from the house. Natalie was happy, along with Jeff, but for different reasons. Natalie was glad that her plan and lie worked and Jeff was happy that the biggest threat was now out of the competition.
Back to the HoH we saw some more slipping as Jordan feel several times…. not really in a row as they made it seem but she did fall a lot. It was also funny how they showed her saying “slippy” instead of slippery int he Diary Room. She’s the best DR person this season and should come back for an All Stars 2 simple for that reason! Natalie’s slippage wasn’t shown as much as I would have though, considering she fell almost every run down the alley. They tried to make it seem like she was throwing the challenge, which I don’t think was the case. Jeff seemed to believe that though but it didn’t make him suspicious. Kevin wasn’t too happy about it either as he felt she made him the sole person playing for the HoH, even though they were both in danger. When it came down to the end both Michele and Kevin were close but since Michele fell several times, Kevin was able to claim his marshmallow first and won the HoH key.
