Recap: Live-feed mini Yakdate, Sat. Aug 7

Another day in the BB house. What will the new HOH, noms, and Saboteur bring to the houseguests? Continue reading below for your recap and don’t forget to join our forums for everything Big Brother and MORE!

Saturday began in the BB house with the houseguests being allowed to go into the backyard after a long indoor lockdown. It looks as if Big Brother built another game for the houseguests to practice that will more than likely be used for the POV comp. It looks like it’s some sort of bowling game, but it seems like everything is wet (the lane, the balls, etc).

The houseguests spent most of the night (before they went to bed) practicing for the Veto comp they expect to be today. (The Yak apologizes for no Friday update. You can check our our live feed threads, but Rachel/Brendon have been nominated. Matt opened Pandora’s box. We are not sure what he receives, but that unleashed the Saboteur on the house. Ragan accepted and sent a message to the houseguests to watch their back before he stabs them in the back. Rachel also called Ragan and Matt out on an alliance and Ragan seemed to fight back for a few minutes.)

Late into the night, Rachel broke down in tears again. And Brendon tried to console her again. It seems that no matter how hard Brendon tried, she seems to push him away or make it hard for him to support her.

The houseguests woke up around 830am BBT and find to be on another indoor lockdown. Not much happened as they all stumbled out of bed and thought about migrating to their “I don’t sleep here just sit with my eyes closed” spot for the day. As the morning went on, Veto players were chosen. Since Ragan won his Veto Ticket in the last competition, he opted to play in this one. There are 7 players for this week’s veto then. Matt, Brendon, Rachel, Ragan, Enzo, Britney, and Kathy will be playing. While we’re talking about Veto, we’d better note that Brendon did tell Rachel that if he wins Veto, he will use it to save her … Take that as you may. Meanwhile, it’s looking like that if the Veto is used, Kathy will be the replacement nominee.

Oh how I love this! Rachel: Apologize! Kathy: No! It’s like Santa dropped a gift into my lap. ~ Kristin

Feeds came back around 3pm BBT and we find out that Britney won the POV yet again! Brendon, do these balls belong to you? Rachel dropped them. ~ Kristin

Of course, that didn’t make Rachel & Brendon look too pleased. Jeff & Jordan also made their visit to the house during the POV competition. Britney commented how Jordan’s face looked like she did NOT like Rachel much at all. Kathy apparently beat (and eliminated) Rachel from the POV competition and Rachel did not seem to take that lightly. Not long after, a fight broke out between the two of them in the Cabana Room. Rachel is mad that Kathy cheered when she made it farther in the game. Rachel admitted to picking Kathy to play in POV because she thought she could beat her. Rachel wants Kathy to apologize because she suspects that Kathy talks about her behind her back and for cheering against her in the veto comp. Kathy refuses to apologize and Rachel did not seem to let up, at all.

I think I actually see a puddle of pee under Brendon. ~ Yellowdog

It did not take long for Brendon to nearly lash out against Lane. Rachel commented on how they’ve fought so hard to stay there and everyone else is making it personal against them. She feels betrayed by Kathy and just wanted an apology from someone she thought was a friend. Rachel continues to cry and profess her “genuine love” for Brendon and why it sucks to be up against him on the block. She even went so far as to compare it with Britney and her fiance (bold?). Hayden tried to remind Rachel that her comment about the “life vests” post-HOH is similar to Kathy celebrating, especially since Kathy has rarely been picked to play in competitions. Rachel understands but claims to have at least apologized for that comment. Now she just wants Kathy to apologize…

Later in the day, Britney and Rachel discuss the possibility of Britney using the POV on Rachel. Britney told her straight up that she will not be using it because it would put a huge target on her back. She wants to be friends with Rachel and doesn’t want this to be personal. She says that if she were to use it, it would look bad in front of everyone, especially with the Saboteur suspicions going around. Rachel kept offering Britney the $5000 that she won and claims that she would use the veto on her if roles were reversed.

Many of the houseguests commented on how cool it was to meet Jeff/Jordan today. Jeff seemed to have liked Enzo and they say Jordan is a lot prettier in person than she is on TV. They also thought Jeff would be taller. Meanwhile, Rachel and Brendon continue sulking into the night as they commiserate being on the block together. Brendon said he will write her a poem per day; he has the inspiration. They believe that they were each put in the house to meet each other.

And we leave you with a very flattering picture of the Meow-Meow.
