For you on the West Coast, there are serious spoilers in this post ! ! !

So as usual, we got Julie Chen’s recap. Rachel and Lawon “LaPawn” are on the block after Jeff won veto, took himself off, and Kalia honored her word never to put up Jordan.

Probably the worst move ever? But maybe not for her! As it seems (from the feeds) Kalia realized Danielle was a sinking ship in the house and she needed a few more friends than just Danielle. Danielle has recently aligned herself with Porsche (since Kalia can’t play for veto).

Kalia seemingly got Danielle in on her plan, and when Lawon volunteered to go up (2nd worst move ever?) Danielle seemed okay, just because nobody knew what the twist was. Lawon seemed sure he would come back with special powers . . . .the Super Gay?

Rachel was thrilled, she felt this was a miracle. Lawon however was sure he would be returning with super powers. Jeff didn’t know if Kalia was brilliant or stupid, but Kalia wanted someone who would leave and return and not be after her.

Lawon tried to pretend he was shocked, pissed and disappointed (Side note: most everyone in the house realized Lawon volunteered to go up). Shelly completely figured out Lawon was a liar and even called him out. He still played his cards. Shelly went to Kalia, who told her the truth about Lawon.

Shelly then played the other side of the house, Jeff and Jordan. She told them that she felt Lawon volunteered to go up and was putting on a good show.

The house started to explode as Rachel’s loose lips started sinking ships. Rachel started talking a little too much about a deal to keep her. We then got to see some updates from Matt and Ragan from Season 12, who as much as they got into fights with Rachel, are still friends with her!

The vote was eventually held, the vote went as follows . . . .
Jordan, Jeff, Porsche, Danielle! (thinking she’d regret it), Shelly and Adam all voted to evict Lawon.

Yup, it was a 6 to 0 vote, Lawon was out . . . . but then Julie told Lawon to hold on and take a seat . . . Rachel said “Shocker!”

Julie said Lawon had a chance to return, but he had to battle his way back . . . . One of the evictees who had been sequestered separately and would be given a chance back. Julie revealed America voted who they wanted back, and that person and Lawon would battle for a chance to return to the game.

After a commercial break we learned more than 2 million votes were cast, and it was close between Dominic and Brendan, but Brendan was the winner of America’s Vote!

Brendan and Lawon faced off in a game called “That’s How We Roll.” Hundreds of balls were dropped into the yard, containing names. They had to pick 14 balls with names on them. They had to pick the names of the 14 original Big Brother Houseguests! There were a whole not of rules should you tie and what not, I couldn’t keep up there.

In the end . . . . the returning houseguest is . . . . Brendan! Lawon was LaPissed! We don’t know what the next HOH contest even is at this point . . . . .
