BB day 46

If Mark and Elena do stay on the block until Thursday, and Jessica comes off, unlikely, then Elena would most likely be the one evicted.

'Big Brother 19' Spoilers: Who Are the Week 6 Nominees?

With Josh as the HoH on Big Brother 19, it's pretty obvious that Jessica and Cody are the targets. Or are they? It turns out Josh may have his own plans that aren't the same as Paul's plans.

SPOILER WARNING: This article contains Big Brother 19 spoilers.

Cody won immunity and Jessica is the third nominee from the Temptation Competition.

Josh nominated Mark and Elena.

In Paul's mind, Jessica is the clear target and he wants her out in a major way. But Josh doesn't agree. Josh wants Elena to be evicted because he doesn't trust her. He sees that she's flip-flopping and playing both sides. At least with Jessica and Cody, he knows where they stand.

The most dramatic part is that Paul does not agree with this at all, but Josh refuses to lay down and do whatever he says. Josh is on a bit of a power trip and wants Elena to be the target, refusing to back down. This comes after Josh spoke to Christmas and they talked about not just doing whatever Paul wants them to do. It looks like some of the dogs are starting to get minds of their own.

Still, on Paul's orders, Josh told Mark and Elena that they are both pawns because they are strong competitors who can beat Jessica. Mark accepted this, but Elena fought back hard, arguing that she hasn't won anything and that there are better competitors to use as pawns than her like Alex and Paul. She's not wrong, but her argument fell on deaf ears and only buried her deeper with Josh.

And of course Paul is in the middle, spinning his lies to everyone. He told Elena that he volunteered to be a pawn, but Josh declined, a lie that he shared with Josh so they would be on the same page.

FUN FACT

Jessica is the first HG this season to be nominated three times, by Alex, Paul and Josh. Meanwhile, Paul, Kevin, Matt and Raven are the only four HGs left who have never been on the block.

If Jessica remains on the block then she will likely be evicted, but she still has a chance to save herself by winning POV. In which case she would certainly use it to save herself, leaving Matt and Elena on the block.

'Big Brother 19' Spoilers: Who Won the Second Temptation Competition?

John Kubicek

With Josh as HoH on Big Brother 19, a few people desperately need to win the Temptation Competition to get immunity. But who won it, who is the third nominee and what are Josh's plans for the week?

SPOILER WARNING: This article contains Big Brother 19 spoilers.

Cody won the Temptation Competition and has immunity for the week. Jessica came in last and is the third nominee.

Well, that worked out perfectly for them because Cody is safe and Jessica is guaranteed to play in the Power of Veto competition. It also prevents Josh from nominating either of them. Of course Christmas still has her Ring of Replacement from the Den of Temptation, so if Cody gets picked to play she'll probably use it on him.

On Paul's request, everyone except for HoH Josh and injured Christmas played in the Temptation Competition in order to lessen the odds of Jessica or Cody winning. It seems the competition was similar to one from Big Brother: Over the Top, where one at a time the HGs raan through the house in darkness looking for objects, fitting with the horror theme of the week.

Has the Game Become Too Harsh?>>>

However, this week isn't so simple. Paul is pushing very hard for Jessica to be the target, but Josh wants to nominate Mark and Elena to take out Elena as the target. Josh thinks they can take out Jessica and Cody any time and he knows where they stand, but Elena is disloyal and flips and flops. Josh is adamant about taking out Elena, which is going to cause some drama.

It's interesting to see Josh developing a spine as HoH and pushing back against Paul very hard. This isn't surprising as, late Thursday/early Friday, Josh talked to Christmas and they discussed not just rolling over and doing whatever Paul tells them to do.
