On tonights show....  reaction after Howie wins HoH, plotting, food competion, more plotting and discussions of who they want to come back and finally nominations (just my guess).

The recap of the previous weeks goings on is first.  Finishing with Howie winning the HoH and being told an HG will return.  Roll the opening song....  Interesting - only the HGs still in the house are shown by name.

Maggie is in the Diary Room saying she accomplished her goal of getting rid of a strong player.  Others comment on him leaving.  James says it stinks that he is gone (James voted to evict Janelle).

Rachel admits she kinda let Howie win - or rather didn't try very hard to win it once it was between her and Howie.  Maggie says she doesn't know who Howie will nominate.  April says the HoH game showed who was with who and grouped with who (by how people were eliminated).  Maggie feels like they are in trouble and she might be nominted.

Ivette eliminated James from the HoH competition so she is concerned that he will be mad at her.  We see James mad that she did eliminate her before Janelle. Now the discussion is about the returning HG.Maggie says if Eric comes back it would be awsome.  Janelle would like to see Michael or Kaysar.  There is talk in the gold room by Janelle, Howie, James and Sarah - they are worried that if Eric comes back Maggie and he will be too strong.

Howie gets into the HoH room  - lots of food and pictures - I guess Howie actually was a male stripper for a while and the Hgs get to see a pic of him from those days.  He is disaapointed he didn't get a light saber (from Star Wars).

Howie, Rachel and Janelle huddle in the HoH room (note - this conversation happened very late Thursday night - after Howie had spoken to Ivette, Beau, April, Jennifer AND Maggie - I bet those conversations are shown later).  Howie talks about nominating James and Sarah - Rachel is worried that if they do and James wins the POV that they will be his enemy in the house.  Rachel suggests nominating Maggie and someoen else and then at worst they get Maggie out, if someone wins the POV they put up James and he goes (called 'backdooring' him).

Commercial 

April and Jennifer talk to Howie (this conversation happened BEFORE the one just shown before commercial).  April pushes to have James put up with Sarah.  Ivette and Beau come in - same thing - James and Sarah - Ivette says if you put up James and Sarah we will put up the other person next week.  James enters...  James is very nervous.... he tells Howie and Rachel he has been playing with Ivette and Beau.

(In the middle of this we see a clip of James saying to America to send Eric back in because James will send him right out - not shown is James also saying he would like to see Kaysar come back in).

Now Maggie comes in with the same proposition as the others - put up james and Sarah (again - all this occured BEFORE the conversation between Rachel and Howie - and thats a perfect example of editing).  Howie gives Maggie his word that Sarah and James are going up.

A lil segment on April - she has a messed up tailbone so she was telling people she had a tail - its just a silly segment.

More plotting - Rachel and Howie go round and round - Rachel is really upset that Howie made deals with the others.  She says he screwed everythign up (not 'furious' more extremely dissapointed - or perhaps like Mo from the Three Stooges smacking Curly for being a numbskull).
