Tonight is the night: eviction night, the jurors battle to return and the new HOH competition!

Aaryn nominated Spencer for a replacement nominee when Elissa went off the block by winning veto. Aaryn said this is the corner she was pushed into, IE she played Amanda’s game for her. Amanda wants Helen gone.

Helen knew that Aaryn was being bullied into this when she really wanted Amanda up. Helen tried to get Elissa, Gina Marie and Aaryn on her side, saying otherwise Amanda will run this game. She thought she had them all. Helen talked to Andy truthfully and said that he is the swing vote, and if she leaves then it will be because of his vote and then he will be a target, not Amanda and McCrae. Helen tried to paint them as evil, which Andy didn’t like. Andy acted insulted that she would even question him. Aaryn said Amanda and McCrae would find out about this conversation and come after her . . . Helen said if nobody tells them then nobody will know. Of course Andy the wuss went right to Amanda to tattle!

Helen knew Andy was a liar and then went to McCrae to try and keep her. Helen made a pitch to him as to why to keep her over Spencer. McCrae was a wuss too though and was just taking orders from Amanda. Helen then got personal, talking about how marriage is hard and this is a sneak peak of his life with her. She said Amanda bullies and pushes him around, he needs to stand up to her.

McCrae of course told Amanda what Helen told him. All these men are so whipped by Amanda, who can’t win jack snot on her own! It’s amazing! Amanda acted like she was an awesome person and then tried to get people to tell her if they thought she was a bully. Of course nobody would! Spencer said she was “assertively honest.” Nice, as if Amanda will understand that phrasing!

Helen got others on her side and then pressured Andy saying if he votes Helen out, as he is the swing vote, then they will target him. In the feeds however Elissa screws things up and it seems that the house swung back to getting Helen out . . . .

We then went to the living room for the live vote . . .

McCrae, Amanda, Andy (WUSS!), and Gina Marie (WUSS!) voted to evict Helen.
Elissa voted to evict Spencer.

Helen was officially evicted . . . but perhaps not for good!

Helen was told about the eviction and said her goodbyes to all, crying as she went out the door. She graciously hugged everyone.

Helen talked with Julie. Helen knew that Andy’s loyalty was with Amanda and McCrae, but she felt he wasn’t hateful or malicious against her. She only wanted him to take out a huge player, but he wouldn’t do it. Julie asked her if she wished she targeted Amanda sooner? Helen thought Judd was a bigger threat and Amanda already had a huge target on her back, so someone else would take her out. However everyone is scared of Amanda, so it never happend.

After she watched her goodbye vids, Julie then told Helen that she and the other evicted jury members will fight to return to the game!

We saw a bit of Judd and Candice in the jury house, along with Jessie eventually join them. They have been in the jury house, and Jessie filled them in on what happened since they left on double eviction night. They then found out about the chance to play to get back into the game.

The four jurors where gathered to play to get back into the game. Julie told them the houseguests had no idea about this, and she decided to break the news to them live! The houseguests were also dressed for an HOH comp. Amanda of course wanted to crap her pants!

The jurors entered the house and everyone hugged and acted sweet and nice of course. They all then went to the backyard for the Jury and HOH comps.

The two games were played in one big comp. They were lined up on a wall and each stood on a small platform. It was an endurance comp. Balls were to be thrown at them (tennis balls). The first to catch 10 balls without falling off would win HOH. If a juror does this, they are HOH and back in the game! I’m not sure what happens if a juror doesn’t win? Does this mean no juror comes back? Or the one who does the best comes back? It seems the later is the case if Julie’s words are to be understood. My guess is if a non-juror wins, then the juror who then catches 10 or is the only one left standing comes back. Of course it wouldn’t be an endurance comp without distractions. The pedestals they are go up and down, and they are shot at with water.

I’ll update with the results when I know them!

Results after the jump!
