BB12: Then There Were Four

After quite the Live Eviction Show and HoH Competition, let's peek in on the live feeds!

As it is every Thursday, the game has reset and plans have to be formed again. Alliances will crumble, loyalties will be tested, and resolve will be challenged.

Hayden being HoH will more than likely nominate Lane and Britney; but he could play it strategically and put up Enzo and Lane. It really doesn't matter who he puts up because all the power this week lies with the PoV winner. Whoever wins the PoV, decides who will stay on the block.

Since there is a lot of speculation on this, here is my take:

The Final four sit at the dining table.

They are rehashing the competition with a smattering of Steamboat talk. Talk turns to Ragan

Hayden: What did you say to Ragan when you hugged him (Ragan)?

Lane: I said you did great.

Britney: Boy you were doing some serious campaigning for his vote.

They rib him a bit about that, especially Britney.

Enzo: What did you say?

Britney: I didn't say anything. I just hugged him.

They continue to deconstruct Hayden's eviction speech. Britney is giving him hell for giving Ragan a tribute and not her.

Britney: No more past season. No more. And no more, "that's what she said." I don't want to hear that anymore. (*Amen!)

Lane: He wasn't good at it anyway.

Talk turns to who is sleeping where. Britney asks Hayden if she can sleep on the floor in HoH. Lane objects, asking why she didn't sleep there last week. Britney replies that Lane called Nick a bogey and it was over!

They three tell Britney she probably won't want to come to Steamboat Springs because of the things they have said about Nick.

Hayden: I can't wait for Matt to see Ragan come through the door.

Britney: Why?

Hayden: Cause he said that if I kept Matt, he would keep Ragan under control. But if I kept Enzo, Ragan would come after us...

Britney: When I asked Ragan, he said Matt wasn't lying...

Enzo: Well he's out...

Some light Ragan mocking ensues, and the speculation about what type of Pandora's Box Hayden will get. They're assuming he will....

Lane goes to DR.

Talk turns to Hayden having won 3 HoHs and might tie the BB record with 4 HoHs.

Britney: I wouldn't be upset if Hayden won. You're a good guy, Hayden.

Enzo: It is what it is.

Britney: No time for hatin'. This is it.

Enzo: This is it. If you want to stay you win the PoV.

Pensive silence ensues. Britney breaks it by mocking Rachel for a few minutes.

Britney: Two weeks Enzo and your career begins.

Enzo: I just want to make money. I don't care what I do.

Talk turns to Dr. Will. Britney is called to DR.

Enzo: Yo, what did she (Julie) ask upstairs?

Lane: She asked about the Brigade. It was the coolest thing ever to hear Julie say Brigade.

Hayden: I asked for shirts.

Enzo: We're getting them...

Hayden: It'll crush Britney. I feel bad...

Lane: Who cares? It won't make a difference...

Lane tells them a version of what he told Julie on the Live Show. Talk turns to Hayden winning 3 HoHs which solidifies his win.

Enzo: You win the final HoH, you have my vote. I'd be happy with the 50K. I'd tell them vote for him. I'll take the 50k.

Hayden: Yeah but neither of you bozos will take me.

Enzo: That's why I said that you have to win the final HoH.

They laugh.

Enzo: I'm happy I came up with the name Brigade. The Brigade Final 3. We are doing that right? I will be here next week? I want to battle it out with you two.

They reinforce their Brigadeness... (*out of Diary Room that is...)

Lane: Britney goes why do they call you Beast?

Enzo: Because of the Brigade...

Lane: But she doesn't know...

Enzo: You're the Beast. That's why we called Matt the Brain. He was a small m******er. I'm sneaky that's why I'm the Meow Meow.

Lane: Yeah, but she thinks I gave myself that name....

Some more Brigade talk. They want to win it all - 500K, 50K, 25k...

Lane: what do you think? The two of us go up and make her feel better?

Hayden: It doesn't matter. It's the PoV. You guys have to win it.

Enzo: It's better to put us up and F with her head. Make her feel safe. Talk to her. Reassure her.

The plan seems to be to put up Enzo and Lane to give Britney a false sense of safety which is seriously underestimating Britney.

Talk turns to food. Brigade Burgers anyone? Their cups and cutlery is back but they hadn't realized it until now.

Hayden is making Turkey aka Brigade Burgers and Bitney is critiquing his technique.

She seems a little testy tonight, no doubt worrying about her position in the game.

Lane seems very pensive as well. Maybe he is as disturbed at Britney's shoes on the counter as I am... Britney leaves. Hayden and Lane wonder if she overheard them because she overheard Enzo. Hayden and Lane reconfirm Final 2 but we know how firm that is in Lane's mind... Lane says that Hayden winning HoH was the best case scenario.

Hayden: I've been straight up with you since day 1.

Lane: Oh yeah. Can't say the same about Enzo. (*Or you bud...) Julie asked me who I would take between you, Enzo or Britney, and I said you.

Hayden says that a good chunk of the 500K should he win will go to his mom.

Britney is napping in Taj probably trying to process what she overheard. The others gather in the Cabana.

Enzo: Why she taking a nap? She stressed out?

Hayden: Do you realize a one in four shot of winning?

BB: Lane.

Lane: Whaaaaaat!

BB: Please go to the Diary Room.

Enzo: If he wins PoV, I hope he knows to vote out Britney.... I want Brigade Final 3. That's why I asked for the shirts.

They both want to chill with some burgers and beer.Hayden goes to the bathroom and Enzo daydreams.

Whatcha thinkin'? Dreaming of fame?

Talk turns to the HoH Competition for the 20th time tonight...

Hayden: I was working as fast as I could through the chicken wire and I was worried that I....

Enzo: You had lost your ball...

Lane comes in from DR. Talk turns to food and how hungry they are. Hayden wants to wait for the lock down to be over but Enzo says to fry the burgers.... (**If the Lock Down sticks, the chances for a luxury comp increase.)

Enzo: Yo, if you (Lane) win PoV, you need to vote Britney out. We're going to final 3 right?

Lane: What are the chances of me beating you over her?

Enzo: You're beating me. She won a lot of sh*t...

Lane: You think they will vote that way?(The jury voting for who played the game best as opposed to who they like.)

Enzo: Just vote her out, yo. You got my vote.

They all three are trying to convince each other that they have no chance of winning the 500K. It's hilarious.

Hey! What happened to the fishies????

Hayden goes to get chips and salsa.

Enzo: You voting Britney out? You voting Britney out? You voting Britney out?

Lane: Yeah.

Enzo: You can't look me in the eye when you say that. You know everyone wants the Brigade in the final 3.

Lane: But you will beat me in the final 2.

Enzo: What are you talking about?

Lane: Ragan told me...

Enzo: Ragan! Come on!

Hayden is called to DR. Britney is up. She seems in a better mood.

Enzo: Come on. Let's do this! Let's see the HoH room... Oh is this a picture of your sister? Oh is that Milk Duds? Your sister looks so small. Is that Kristen before she came to the house?

This is it folks! The whole house in one room....

Talk turns to Facebook, emails and phones. Lane tells them that his phone number is on the company website. They talk about LG and Enzo becomes grammatical saying it should be LIG for "Life Is Good" (but it's really Life's Good = LG)... Britney tells them who she has on her Facebook including Nick's brother's fiancée whom she says they hate and make fun of them all the time...

Lane: I used to be a collector.

Britney: Of phone numbers?

Lane: Of pictures...

Britney: What do you mean?

Lane: Huh?

Britney: What do you mean?

Lane: I'm just kidding... (**Not from that expression I just captured you're not... heh)

Britney is called to DR and the other three discuss that Britney won't be going to Steamboat Springs with them because Nick won't want to go.

Then they visit napville and for some reason the flamingos have taken up residence on cam 3....

Britney's marathon DR session continues, and in the Cabana, it's still naptime... complete with snoring...
