Little do they know, the question was actually referring to the guinea pigs.

Matt has told Parker he would take him off the block, and Parker is hoping that's true as Alex is gunning for him.

The HoH competition is to guess what day certain events occured. Boogie gets the least amount of penalty points and wins HoH. Now the plan is for both guys to work their showmances and get them to target eachother. Erika wants to go to the final 2 with Boogie, but despite their flirting, Boogie is actually more loyal to Will.

Will spends time in the hot tub with Janelle, but when he starts to pull away from her, Janelle gets mad. Erika spies on Will and Janelle talking about getting her out but Boogie interrupts it. Boogie nominates Erika and Janelle for eviction.

The PoV competition is to retrieve houseguest's faces from a goo pool and put them on the correct point of the star. Boogie pulls all his faces out quickly but doesn't notice he's missing one. Will doesn't even recognize all the faces but isn't really trying as he think he's safe. Janelle wins the PoV and Erika thinks she's going out in 4th place again.

Erika tries to convince Janelle that Will is harder to beat and that she'll get major points with the jury for sending him home. Erika promises to Janelle that she will take her to the final 2, and the pair manage to expose some of ChillTown's lies after comparing notes. Now Will starts to sense he's going home.

Janelle takes herself off the block and casts the sole vote to evict. The cocky ChillTown alliance get a shock when she votes to evict Will.

BB7 Week 8 recap - "There's a lot of chill left in town"

Erika wins HoH by stepping higher or lower to questions, and whispers immediately to Danielle that she's safe. Danielle tells Erika she thinks Janelle has a deal with ChillTown, since she voted James out. Danielle and Will talk, where Danielle tries to pretend she isn't mad about him turning on the Legion of Doom.

Boogie seduces Erika to try and not get Will nominated. Will also tells Erika that Danielle might be a bigger threat than Janelle, despite their friendship. At the nomination ceremony, ChillTown stay off the block, and Janelle and Chicken George are put up for eviction.

Janelle tells Erika she's not going after her if she comes off, which pleases Erika. Will is hoping him or Janelle can win the PoV so that they can get Danielle on the block. The PoV is to identify the facial features of the evicted houseguests shown on screen. Boogie throws it. Chicken George takes 20 minutes to get the first one. Janelle puts in an incredible time of 1 minute to win the PoV.

Erika doesn't want to put up her friend Danielle, but Will and Boogie argue that it's the best move for her. When Danielle finds out Erika plans to nominate her, she is hurt. Will has to lock Danielle out of the HoH room to prevent her from getting to Erika. At the veto ceremony, Erika names Danielle as Janelle's replacement.

Both Erika and Janelle think they're in ChillTown, so then Boogie and Will decide to make Chicken George a member as well, putting themselves in their best position ever. Will tells Danielle she's staying, but is shocked that she actually believes it.

By a vote of 3-0, Danielle is evicted from the house.

BB7 Week 7 recap - "Get to steppin'!"

Chicken George wins HoH after guessing what the public answered, and is more surprised than anyone. As it's a double eviction, Chicken George has to make his nominations immediately, and puts James and Erika on the block. Danielle is surprised that he didn't nominate Janelle, since he knows the whole house wants her out. Boogie thinks they can talk him into backdooring Janelle, by telling him James has the votes to stay. But Chicken George has told Janelle and Howie he's not going after them.

The PoV competition sees the houseguests shackled to a post, and having to use random objects to retrieve the key. James wins the veto, and is hoping Janelle will go up in his place. But Will makes an unusual offer to Chicken George - put him up, and allow the Danielle/Janelle feud to continue.

Chicken George tells Janelle that everyone wants her out, but that he can't do that to her. He also tells them to vote to keep Erika since he's in an alliance with her. Boogie confronts Chicken George about Will possibly going up, not knowing he volunteered, and threatens to use the Coup. At the last minute, Chicken George changes his mind, and when James saves himself, nominates Howie.

Howie is confident he's staying as both Boogie and Will have promised him their vote. But James thinks getting rid of Howie will weaken Janelle, meaning Will isn't sure what to do.

By a vote of 3-2, Howie is evicted from the house and has an exchange with Boogie on the way out.

The HoH competition is to answer true or false questions, with wrong answers getting them a pie in the face. Boogie wins and is the new HoH. Janelle cries as she has no-one left she can trust, but later reveals this is just strategy. Will works on Janelle so that he can use her to beat James.

Will wants Boogie to put up Janelle and James, so they can send home whoever doesn't win PoV. Will tells Janelle that James is their target, but she doesn't believe them. Boogie nominates the two remaining BB6 players, who both think they have ChillTown on their side.

The PoV challenge is to retrieve the right doll to give to a giant head named Otev. Will throws the competition, but Danielle goes out first. In the third round, Boogie lets Janelle have his doll and gets eliminated. Janelle and James get into a scuffle for a doll in the next round, and Janelle comes out on top. Janelle beats Erika in the last round to win the PoV.

Boogie and Will celebrate Janelle winning the veto, but pretend to be mad in front of the other houseguests. Janelle takes herself off the block and Boogie replaces her with Chicken George. James thinks the Legion of Doom will save him, but Danielle is a little suspicious when Will starts expressing his concerns about James. Danielle offers Janelle a one week truce, thinking she needs ChillTown out next.

By a vote of 3-1, James is evicted from the house.

BB7 Week 6 recap - "I'm here to crush dreams"

The houseguests are visited by the ghosts of former contestants for the HoH competition, and have to answer questions about their apparitions. Erika is the fastest to answer and wins, but Howie is not happy that his buzzer malfunctioned. Due to these technical difficulties, the producers order the challenge to be replayed.

The rematch of the HoH challenge comes down to Janelle and Boogie, which Janelle wins. Danielle is upset, because she knows they could've got Janelle out this week as she was unable to play for veto. Janelle wants Erika to go up, but James argues for Marcellas to go.

The houseguests are also given a chance to win a special power called the Coup D'Etat, and their first clue to the answer is a goat in the house. Danielle and James are the first to guess, choosing "do not assume" and "pull the wool over your eyes".

Will argues to keep Danielle. James also wants Chicken George out, as they mistakenly believe he promised Kaysar he wouldn't vote for him. Janelle puts Danielle and Erika up together. Erika thinks it's funny that in the space of 14 hours, she's gone from thinking about who to nominate to being nominated.

Will tells Danielle they're willing to throw the veto to let take herself off. Boogie and Erika start to get close, and Boogie gives her a mock proposal. Suspecting he might the the replacement nominee, Marcellas tries to repair his relationship with Janelle, telling her he still wants to go to the final 2 with her.

The second clue to the secret power is a needle and thread. Howie guesses "wolf in sheep's clothing" on Janelle's request, but tells everyone he guessed "spool of lies". Will and Danielle think it's a stupid answer and not his real guess.

James is picked to play in the veto competition, and is wary about using it if he accidentally wins it. The competition is to try and beat a time set by an ex-houseguest, with the lowest bid getting to play. Will succeeds at sushi-eating and gets to eliminate Marcellas. James beats the flamingo toss and eliminates Erika, despite Janelle telling him to go for Danielle. James throws the next task and Will throws his, giving Danielle the PoV. But Janelle and Howie have both noticed James' blatant throw, and aren't happy.

Janelle confronts James about not eliminating Danielle, and doesn't buy his excuse. Janelle asks James who to put up to ensure Erika goes and is considering Boogie or Will. James goes to ChillTown and tells them to fix the situation.

Janelle feels bad about potentially putting Marcellas up, but Will assures her that he's not going home. Danielle takes herself off the block, and Marcellas goes up. Marcellas is paranoid he's going home, despite what Janelle says.

Danielle has promised Marcellas that he would tell him if she wanted him out so she's not sure what to do when her alliance suggests he has to go. Marcellas asks Chicken George for his vote, pointing out Erika has taken him out of two HoHs. He also confronts Boogie and Will, as he knows they've been wanting him out for a while.

The third clue for the special power is a grim reaper, making Boogie think his guess of "you reap what you sow" is right. Julie informs Boogie he has won the Coup D'Etat, and can overthrow the HoHs nominations at one of the next three evictions.

By a vote of 6-0, Marcellas is evicted from the house.

BB7 Week 5 recap - "I have a web of deception and I'm ready to catch a whole bunch of houseflies"

The HoH challenge is to be the last one on a spider web. Will drops off first as he wants to be able to pick an egg, but he gets nothing. When James drops off next, he gets a vote nullifier. The rest of the houseguests encourage Chicken George to jump off to get the slop pass, but he misses out when Marcellas falls before him. Howie is soon the last of his alliance remaining up against Danielle and Erika, but can't take any more. Danielle wins the HoH, scoring the first week in power for the Legion of Doom.

Danielle tells James that she wants to put him on the block so that she can compete in the veto against Janelle. Despite the risks, he agrees. Marcellas tells Danielle he wants Kaysar and Janelle up, which surprises Danielle as he had previously been very close with Janelle. Danielle talks to Kaysar to ask why they didn't put up ChillTown last week, but Kaysar stalls on an answer.

Danielle nominates James and Janelle for eviction. Kaysar and Howie are shocked that James is on the block and buy into his act, but Janelle is a little more skeptical. Despite getting the slop pass from Marcellas, Chicken George is having a tough time in the house and is considering quitting. Danielle talks him out of it, and now they have a deal til the end.

Danielle is happy with how the veto draw turned out, as with Will, Boogie and Marcellas playing, it's five people against Janelle. The PoV is to lie in a grave and face temptations. Danielle is willing to give up anything to win the veto, even the phone call from home. Boogie and Will take the prizes, meaning Janelle gets the veto.

Daniele is pissed that her allies are so greedy, and has to take solitary confinement. Will and Boogie know that once season 6 is broken up they'll be the most obvious pair in the house, so are in desperate need of a new scapegoat. They decide to pick Marcellas, blaming him for taking the money.

Coming out of solitary, the houseguests catch Danielle up on the situation, telling her everyone wants Marcellas out. But when Janelle vetoes her own nomination, Danielle puts Kaysar up instead. Kaysar campaigns for votes to stay, starting with Erika. And for once, ChillTown are in a position where both sides want to work with them.

James uses his vote nullifier on Janelle, cancelling one of the votes against him. By a vote of 5-1, Kaysar is evicted on his birthday.

BB7 Week 4 recap - "I want to start the revolution"

The contestants have to eliminate eachother from the new HoH competition after answering questions about words, and Janelle is the last person standing. Will is glad that Janelle is the one who won, since she's been flirting with him a lot.

James thinks Boogie needs to leave this week, but Janelle wants to get out Diane as there'd be no repercussions. James tells Diane she needs to go to Janelle and plead her case to not get put up. Will proposes to Janelle that they join forces with ChillTown to eliminate all the floaters.

Janelle is worried that the rest of the house won't like it if ChillTown is safe again, and James is also encouraging her not to align with them. Will however tries to get Janelle to go after Erika, even saying he's willing to go up on the block next to her. Janelle nominates Erika and Boogie, claiming Erika is a pawn, but her actual intent is to get a floater out.

The house is given wake up calls all through the night as part of the PoV competition. Janelle tells Howie not to let Erika or Diane win, which surprises him as he thought Boogie was the target. The players are then called outside and put in chairs and asked to make out the words on the screen. Will is out first, putting extra pressure on Boogie. Diane ends up targeted by Howie, Boogie and Janelle for the hindrances, which surprises her. Boogie gets 3 questions right to win the PoV, and injures himself kicking glasses in celebration.

Marcellas is frustrated that Janelle wants to nominate Diane instead of Will, seeing it as a cowardly move. James questions Janelle on why she went after Diane, and Howie reveals that she wasn't targeting Boogie after all. Will tries to convince Janelle that it's in her best interest to break away from her alliance. When Boogie uses the veto on himself, Diane goes up.

James feels so screwed over by Janelle's decision that he decides he's done with the season 6 alliance, telling Danielle if he gets HoH next week, he's going to backdoor Janelle. Will and Boogie almost can't believe it when Danielle tells them that James is now on their side.

Diane campaigns to stay, but finds out a lot of the houseguests have already promised not to vote for Erika. Erika is also hindering Diane by popping up whenever she tries to have a conversation. Danielle considers keeping Diane just to piss off Janelle.

By a vote of 7-1, Diane is evicted from the house.

BB7 Week 3 recap - "Slop is Satan's oatmeal"

The HoH is an observation challenge based on the competitions so far. James wins on a tiebreaker. Howie wants to take out powerful players, and Janelle suggests Jase. But James thinks there's positives to taking out Chicken George - he's not on their side and it'll look like they're doing the house a favour. He's also been spying on James' conversations whilst cooking and cleaning.

James asks Will if he minds going up as a pawn, since he has claimed he wants to go home. Will asks James about his position in his alliance, and James admits he thinks he'll be the first person out. Will offers him an alliance with himself, Boogie and Danielle, and James seems interested. Danielle however tells James that keeping Will might backfire, since Chicken George is not a threat.

James nominates Will and Chicken George. Will has no fear about being nominated. James talks to Jase about how Chicken George doesn't deserve to be here, and they agree to take the strong players to the end. Chicken George is intimidated about going up against the best player in Big Brother history and knows he has no chance unless he wins the veto. Howie is sad that his apprentice may get voted out.

The houseguest have to perform certain tasks to win the PoV. Will is the first to drop out after refusing to eat slop, and Boogie can't do it either.  Everyone else agrees to burn their clothes and take a blueberry bath, but James and Jase aren't willing to sit out of the next veto. Kaysar and Chicken George both take a haircut, but Chicken George wins the PoV when he agrees to spend the rest of his time on slop.

James is pissed that Chicken George has managed to save himself. Janelle suggests putting Jase up, but James doesn't want to go back on his word. Kaysar tells Jase that he's going up, and he throws a tantrum. Marcellas then gets into an argument with Jase.

At the veto ceremony, Will gives a speech that he hates everyone in the house and he will throw every competition if they don't vote him out. Chicken George gives a positive and inspirational speech, before using the veto on himself. James puts Jase on the block, as expected.

Will thinks he has got rid of the target on his back by letting everyone think he doesn't care. Jase knows he doesn't have the votes to stay without talking to the BB6 alliance so makes a deal that he won't go after them. Danielle had been in Jase's corner but when she hears about the deal, she doesn't like it.

By a vote of 9-0, Jase is evicted from the house.

BB7 Week 2 recap - "If Howie and I got into a battle of wits, it wouldn't even be fair, because he's unarmed"

The houseguests have to guess Alison's answers to questions in order to become the new HoH. Kaysar gets them right and is the new HoH, and James is the only one of the season 6 crew that hides his excitement. Will and Boogie think they're going up, but Diane and Nakomis also feel vulnerable after being the only votes to evict Danielle.

The food competition is to pull rats out of slop. Much like the house, the teams are divided between ChillTown's friends and the season 6 crew. Nakomis loses the challenge for her team by pulling up a bandanna instead of a rat. The losing team have to eat slop for the week.

Kaysar talks with his allies and they decide to try and pit Nakomis and Diane against ChillTown. Will wants to cut a three-week truce with Kaysar that they'll go after the floaters. Kaysar asks them up to the HoH room and proposes the same thing. Kaysar nominates Diane and Nakomis.

The PoV competition is a golfing game. James throws the competition so he doesn't came on too strong again. Nakomis is out first after Erika gives her an extra ball. Erika scores another perfect shot to win the PoV.

Boogie gets a birthday surprise that includes Erika covered in whipped cream. However, half the house can't enjoy the food because they're on slop. Will enjoys taunting Howie with the food. Marcellas and Janelle try to convince Kaysar to put up Will or Boogie. Will stirs the pot by telling Kaysar they don't want either of the nominees to go, and when Kaysar asks for them to suggest someone else, Will volunteers.

Erika decides not to use the veto. Diane and Nakomis vow not to campaign against eachother. But Diane's tears are working in her favour as Marcellas is convinced Nakomis is the bigger threat. Nakomis goes to Kaysar and pledges loyalty to the BB6 alliance, whereas Diane does the opposite and pledges to the rest of the house she'll take them down.

Danielle has a theory that Jase has a secret alliance with Diane, which she calls the "Mr & Mrs Smith" alliance. When Marcellas confronts him about it, Jase gets nervous. The alliance is then confirmed in James and Janelle's mind when Jase insists that Nakomis is a stronger player.

By a vote of 8-2, Nakomis is evicted from the house.

BB7 Week 1 recap - "Her jugular is exposed, and it is too juicy"

14 all-stars return to the house for another shot at winning the game, and old rivalries flare up quickly. Mike Boogie lets it be known from the start that he wants Kaysar gone, but Boogie and Will are both targets themselves as everyone knows they're together.

The first HoH competition sees half the houseguests sit on a platform whilst the other half tries to knock them out with an asteroid. The winners from both groups will become the co-HoHs. Marcellas and Danielle target eachother as they still have bad blood from their last season. Will tries to ride the asteroid, but fails. Jase aims for Janelle, but knocks off Alison. Jase is the winner from the first group and Janelle wins from the second group.

Janelle and Jase have to agree on nominations or face being nominated, but Jase isn't being helpful in suggesting names. Danielle has an idea that if Jase deliberately doesn't agree to Janelle's nominations, they could use it to vote Janelle out. The scheme however gets back to Janelle, and she decides to go after Danielle because of it.

Alison comes to Jase to be part of an alliance to get the BB6 people out, but Jase has already managed to infiltrate their group. Jase and Janelle nominate Danielle and Alison for playing too hard. Danielle's response is to blame Alison for the scheme. Marcellas wants Danielle out, but Erika argues that Alison is better at competitions.

The houseguests are informed the first veto competition is a diving competition. But it actually turns out to be dumpster diving, as the contestants must rummage through trash to find veto symbols. Danielle, Kaysar and Janelle are all in it as Will commentates from the sidelines. Janelle pulls away to win the PoV.

Janelle decides not to use the PoV. Alison appeals to James for his vote, but curiously tells him that she's going after the other people from BB6. Boogie is skeptical of James when he hears he wants to vote out Alison, as he wants to keep her so that she can get into a catfight with Janelle.

By a vote of 8-2, Alison is evicted from the house.

BB6 Week 10 recap - "One played as an open book, one played as a closed book"

The first part of the HoH challenge is to stand on a rotating safe lock whilst holding onto your key. Janelle struggles and is the first one off. Ivette tells Maggie she can't jump off because Janelle will vote her out, and goes on to win when Maggie slips. Ivette also gets the combination to the final safe, and wins a motorbike.

The second part of the HoH challenge is to work out the combination to a giant lock, using clues. Both girls try their lock several times but have answers wrong. Janelle wins and moves on to the final part. Ivette isn't sure what she's going to do, but Janelle tries to convince her to choose the money over her friend.

The third part of the HoH challenge is to guess statements made by the jury. Ivette wins HoH on a double tiebreaker. As the final HoH, Ivette gets to evict the last person from the house. She decides to evict Janelle from the house.

The final 2 get questions from the jury. Ivette says she played with integrity. Maggie says she played strategically but tried not to take the spotlight. Ivette is asked if she made a $500,000 mistake by taking Maggie, and she says she couldn't break her promise. Maggie is asked who was responsible for Kaysar getting backdoored, but Ivette takes the blame.

By a vote of 4-3, Maggie wins Big Brother 6.

BB6 Week 9 recap - "I don't want to slander anyone on national television, but her girlfriend is ugly as Hell"

The HoH challenge is to use magnets to answer questions. Maggie throws the tiebreaker so Ivette wins, and she celebrates by running around the house. Now she wants to fulfill her promise to Beau that she will take out Janelle. But Janelle plans to win the veto and the make a deal with Ivette that they'll take her to the final 3 if she votes out April.

The PoV competition is to light up the three names that make up the morphed face. April loses time by not turning her lights off. Howie gets stuck on one that includes his own face. Janelle goes last and although she initially thinks she's done horribly, it turns out she won.

Ivette comes to Howie, saying she's considering turning on the Friendship for a better chance at winning. Janelle takes herself off the block, and Ivette nominates April. Ivette doesn't want to leave a strong pair in the game, but is annoyed by April saying she doesn't need the money.

After a 1-1 vote, Ivette breaks the tie and evicts Howie.

The HoH competition is a game of before or after, and Janelle wins. The girls now have to turn on eachother. Janelle offers to let the girls sleep in the HoH room with her, but they decline. Janelle tries her best to be likeable to the Friendship, knowing she will need to sway a few votes to win the game.

Janelle talks with April and asks her if she will vote out Ivette like he wants. Ivette doesn't like that April might be making a deal. Then when Janelle nominates Ivette and Maggie, April asks Maggie not to fight for the veto.

The PoV competition is to match up the houseguest's faces to statements. Ivette wins, and her excessive celebration annoys April. Ivette uses the veto on herself, putting April on the block. Ivette then gets offended when April blames her bad behaviour on her.

Ivette casts the lone vote, and evicts April from the house.

BB6 Week 8 recap - "Lady luck does it again"

The HoH challenge requires houseguests to step higher or lower to questions and April wins. April wants to backdoor James as this is the last week possible, but she needs Howie and Janelle's help to do it. Janelle's main concern is that Ivette would not use the veto, so asks if April would consider putting her on the block. Ivette has been campaigning for Janelle to go, due to her close friendship with James.

April nominates Howie and Janelle. When April tells him she won't be picking him for the veto, James gets suspicious. Ivette tells Maggie that she wants James to stay, but Maggie isn't on board. When James is left sitting out of the veto, his fear of being backdoored is confirmed.

The PoV competition is to find keys unlock veto symbols. Janelle's strategy is to put all her keys in a corner. Beau takes an early lead, but April comes from behind to win the PoV, proving everyone who said she was weak wrong. There is also a silver veto up for grabs with the combination to the second safe, which Janelle wins.

Janelle finds a trip to the Bahamas inside the safe, which makes Ivette jealous. And when the viewers choose Janelle to win a phone call over her, the jealousy intensifies. She's even more upset over the fact the phone call was from Michael, who she only knew for 2 weeks. James tries to manipulate the situation to get Janelle voted out instead of him.

April uses the PoV on Janelle and James is put up in her place. James doesn't think he has much of a chance up against Howie, but Ivette helps campaign for him. James also tries to convince Janelle that he'd be a stronger ally for her than Howie.

By a vote of 4-0, James is evicted from the house.

The HoH competition is to roll a ball along a beam to score points. Howie gets a perfect 12 to beat Beau and win the HoH. Howie has to make his nominations immediately, and puts Ivette and Beau on the block.

April and Maggie decide to partner up. Ivette however tries to convince Maggie to use the veto on her so that April can go home. The PoV competition is a game of craps. After an initial 4-way tie, it eventually comes down to Janelle and Maggie, and Maggie wins.

Maggie wants to talk to Howie alone but Janelle doesn't let her. Maggie encourages the Friendship to tell her what to do with the veto, and they convince her to follow her heart. April feels betrayed when she hears Maggie wants to keep the pair in the game, but in the end, the nurse leaves them on the block.

By a vote of 3-0, Beau is evicted from the house.

BB6 Week 7 recap - "Hurricane Howie may have to batter down Busto Island again"

Janelle wins an intense HoH challenge by answering questions about the evicted houseguests, and is told by Julie to make her nominations immediately as part of a double eviction week. She puts Jennifer and Maggie on the block, telling Jennifer to pack her bags. Howie also rubs the victory in their faces, pissing off Rachel for being too overbearing.

James tries to mediate the arguments in the hopes of playing both sides. Rachel tries to get James back on their side by telling him that they'll help him evict Maggie if he lets them evict Jennifer first. April wants to win the veto and take Jennifer off, hoping that she'll be able to get Ivette out.

The PoV competition is a hockey game, where the players must score 6 goals in the fastest time. April is happy just to beat Howie. Despite coming close, Jennifer is unable to beat Janelle's time and Janelle wins PoV.

James tells Janelle to put Ivette on the block so they can get Maggie out. At the veto ceremony, Maggie is stunned when Janelle takes her off the block, and Ivette is put up in her place. Although Jennifer still thinks she's the target, Ivette isn't comfortable, especially since Janelle accidentally said "evict" instead of "nominate".

By a vote of 5-1, Jennifer is evicted from the house.

The second HoH challenge of the week is to answer questions about the house. Beau beats James in a tiebreaker to become HoH. Beau wants to put up Rachel and Howie, but Maggie doesn't want to take too much attention off James.

Rachel wants to sacrifice herself for Howie, but Howie feels his behaviour has made him the target. Howie is willing to streak if they promise to keep him, but Maggie refuses.

Kaysar walks back into the house after being voted back in by the viewers. He then immediately gets stuck into the new HoH challenge, which is to stand in a pressure cooker holding onto a button. Eliminated contestants able to pick boxes with a possible prize. Beau is the first one out and pisses everyone off when he gets drunk off his Martini bar. Janelle and April are the next out, with April pretending she let go by accident. When James surprisingly lets go, Maggie drops out next so she can pick a box. Kaysar is the last to drop out after 12 hours once he gets Jennifer's word that she will backdoor James.

James pleads to Jennifer not to backdoor him, saying it's unfair. The PoV competition is to toss the coaster with the houseguest's face on it onto the ring of the week they were evicted. Rachel beats Howie to win the PoV.

Ivette proposes that they keep James and use him as a number, and target Kaysar instead. Jennifer talks to all of her alliance individually to see what decision they would make.

Kaysar attacks Jennifer after his nomination, wondering what he did to deserve such betrayal. Howie also feels betrayed and decides not to be nice any more and gets into a fight with April, making her cry. Janelle starts insulting people too, although only Beau fights back.

For the HoH challenge, the houseguests have to eliminate eachother after getting questions right. Howie is the last one standing and becomes the new HoH. Howie doesn't trust James and wants him out...but with the news that an evicted houseguest will be coming back into the house next week, his allies don't want to risk Cappy coming back and re-teaming with Maggie.

April lets Howie know how much she can't stand James, and Howie talks about calling a truce to get rid of James and Sarah. Howie promises Maggie that he'll put the couple up, which angers Rachel when she hears this as the original plan was to backdoor him.

Howie nominates James and Sarah, surprising both of them. Feeling betrayed, James blames Maggie for his nomination and claims everything she told them was a lie.

The houseguests decorate pinatas for the veto competition. Sarah puts a sad face on hers, whereas James adds a veto symbol and a halo. The task is put candy in the pinatas and get the most without going over 20. Sarah targets Howie, whereas Ivette and Howie target James. Howie thinks 16 is enough to win, but James ends up with 18 and wins the PoV again.

The house is pissed that James is safe, but everyone is in agreement to vote Sarah out. April initially volunteers to be the pawn, but then takes it back. Some of the houseguests start to have concerns about Ivette's loyalty after seeing how close she is with James. James uses the PoV on himself, and Ivette goes up in his place.

Ivette starts getting worried she doesn't have the votes to stay, and she might be right since April and Howie both think Ivette is a bigger threat. Jennifer proposes this to Maggie, and she gets worried by the prospect of their group of five turning on eachother.

By a vote of 6-1, Sarah is evicted from the house.

BB6 Week 4 recap - "He must've been a catcher"

Maggie wins HoH by getting her ball closest to the middle hole in a bowling lane. Sarah feels guilty for letting the team down after missing the last shot. Janelle feels that one of her, Kaysar or James will be targeted, whereas Howie thinks they're going to come after couples.

Now that Maggie knows Howie and Rachel are partners, she wants to find out where they stand. Maggie talks to Howie and asks if it was him that suggested she go on the block. She wants to make a deal with the pair, but Howie turns it down after seeing Rachel is reluctant.

James tries to explain himself for turning on the group, but Beau and Maggie aren't having any of it. Sarah tries to throw the rest of her alliance under the bus, saying she doesn't feel her and James are part of the group. But now after seeing what flip-floppers they are, Maggie is considering putting them on the block. James ends up subject to an interrogation from Maggie, which leaves him thinking that she's a cop.

The food competition is for the houseguests to fill in the blanks and match eachother. They win food for the whole week, and also the combination to the safe. Inside are sandwiches, including one that contains a peanut butter and jelly pass. The houseguests each choose a sandwich randomly, and Janelle gets the pass.

Maggie nominates James and Kaysar, which they see as a move of revenge. Janelle is willing to fight to take Kaysar off the block. They're hoping that if Sarah is the replacement, James will be able to swing some votes, therefore only losing them the weakest member of their alliance. James swears on the bible to Ivette that he'll put up Howie and Rachel if he wins the next HoH, hoping to regain favour with their side.

The PoV competition is to throw balls from a spinning couch to get your TV to channel 5. James and Sarah both aim for Sarah's TV, but Maggie manages to turn it off. Sarah manages to score the winning shot, earning the PoV.

Maggie wants Kaysar to go, but Ivette is set on wanting Janelle out. When Ivette asks James if their deal is still on, he says he's going after Maggie now for turning his TV off. Kaysar tries to make a deal with Maggie that if she puts up Jennifer, none of his side will come after her. In the end, Maggie stands by the Friendship and puts up Janelle when Sarah takes James off.

April lets Kaysar know that James has betrayed them, and he tells Howie and Rachel, who aren't happy. Maggie proposes that their two groups come together to take him out, and Kaysar promises to target James if he stays.

By a vote of 7-1, Kaysar is evicted from the house.

BB6 Week 3 recap - "I sealed your partner's fate"

Kaysar wins the majority rules HoH, saving himself and Janelle from certain nomination. Kaysar, Janelle and Howie all talk in the secret room, and Howie and Janelle encourage him to put James and Maggie up, since they have the most friends. Kaysar wants to try and weed out the secret pairs, so talks with James, who adamantly denies that he's with anyone.

Ivette tries to make amends with Kaysar and tries to get James and Sarah on the block. Kaysar lets Sarah know that some of her allies wanted her and James up, which makes her want to come clean. James tries to convince Kaysar that nominating Janelle will get him in good with the rest of the house.

Kaysar nominates James and Maggie for eviction, making Cappy's alliance squirm. Cappy promises Kaysar he won't use the veto if he wins it, as part of the deal they made last week. If James wins the veto, he wants Kaysar to break the deal and put Cappy up anyway. Janelle is also on board.

After finding a clue on a coaster, Sarah discovers a flashlight in the wall. The flashlight is used to reveal a clue on the fishtank, which gives them one of the numbers to the safe. Unfortunately, the houseguests are unable to correctly identify how many seas are on the map.

In desperation to stay, James and Sarah finally decide to tell Kaysar and Janelle that they're a couple, hoping to gain their trust. Kaysar proposes a new alliance between them, and adds Rachel and Howie to make six. The plan is to take James off the block, and send Cappy home.

The PoV competition involves uncovering squares on a chessboard, moving as a knight. Kaysar and James help close Ivette in, eliminating her first. Maggie is eliminated soon after. James wins the veto and Cappy knows he's in trouble.

Sensing the house has turned, Maggie talks with Kaysar. He lays it all out in the open and confirms the plot to get Cappy out, which stuns Maggie. Cappy finds out he's going up, but James has no sympathy for him since he tried to get him out. At the veto ceremony, James removes himself, and Kaysar nominates Cappy. Cappy feels defeated, but Ivette and Maggie take it even worse.

By a vote of 5-4, Cappy is evicted from the house.

BB6 Week 2 recap - "I'm about to go Latin on his ass"

The houseguests have to avoid being the slowest to answer the true or false questions to be the new HoH. Cappy beats Janelle on the last question to win. Janelle is not happy...and neither is Kaysar. Maggie cries when Cappy gets his HoH room, which makes James suspicious that there's something between them.

Kaysar wonders who the other person that voted for him was. Cappy blames Michael, even though he knows it was James. April is annoyed by Michael being touchy feely with all the women. Janelle is flirting too, playing the guys at chess to find out who is the smartest player.

The houseguests have to eat disgusting treats from the snack shack to win this week's food. April and Maggie feel bad for being unable to do it, so Cappy makes sure to stress that they win and lose as a team. He also lectures the group about not eating the food they won too fast, rubbing Michael and Janelle up the wrong way.

Cappy plans to put Michael up next to Janelle and tell him he's a pawn. Sarah isn't happy with having to lie, which annoys Cappy when this gets back to him. Cappy nominates Janelle and Michael for eviction. Michael thinks it's hypocritical of Cappy to complain about him and Janelle, when he is just as close with Ivette.

Kaysar is starting to distance himself from Michael to avoid becoming a target. April tries to convince Janelle to do the same, but she's not having any of it. Michael's animosity for Cappy rises, as he feels he has been falsely accused of harassment. When Cappy hears that Michael insulted his family the two almost come to blows, and have to be calmed down by Big Brother. Ivette is also starting to get annoyed with Michael's behaviour and that anger spills over onto Kaysar too.

The PoV competition is to use a harness to fly between two platforms to transfer water into a tank. James, Michael and Janelle all win their initial match-ups, leaving a lot of the houseguests very nervous. When the times are revealed, James wins the PoV. He decides not to use it.

The tension between Cappy and Michael has cooled down, and now people are wondering if they're making the right decision since Janelle is a better competitor than Michael. Janelle and Michael have grown closer, having make-out sessons in the secret room.

By a vote of 9-1, Michael is evicted from the house.
