Well, well, well... did you think Janelle would actually do it? Evict Dr. Delicious? Do you think Erika will stick to her "word on her mom"? I guess we'll see!

To start this, I just wanted to pipe in with my own thoughts regarding last night's big endurance competition. Now, I'm just a watcher of the game, not a player. But, I'd have to assume the players know as much about the comps as I do. When Julie Chen said "for now" in answer to the question whether both hands have to remain on the key, I understood it fine. I think Janelle probably did, too. The "for now" is because once things start moving, smoking, shaking, whatever they're going to do, Big Brother usually sends out a message that they can only hang on with one hand to make things tougher.

That was the biggest fiasco of an endurance comp I've ever seen. While Janelle's removal of one hand from the key was accidental (she was straining to see what the heck Mike did), Mike's leap off was overly dramatic and will probably backfire on him. He knew he couldn't win against the girls in an endurance comp, so he didn't even try. Will and Mike have said on and off all season they wouldn't try at an endurance comp. "Remember Richard Hatch?" Oh, I do. He was my pick to win the first Survivor season. I remember Richard Hatch won. I bet Janelle and Erika remember he won, too. All the more reason to vote out Mike! I still can't believe an endurance comp, which started near the end of the live show, ended before the live show went off the air.

What's that noise I hear? Ah, it's all the eyes rolling out there!

Here are the events from Thursday night after the live show in that Big Brother House of Take That Chill Town!:

• Erika and Janelle are beside themselves with glee. Janelle said Will told her he was the fox and she was the bunny. "Who's the bunny now, BLEEP?"
• Mike went to the Diary Room as the two girls celebrated the victory over Chill Town, chortling and chuckling.
• The girls took a moment to ask Mike if he was okay. He still seems shellshocked. He just mumbled, "I've never been in the house with him..." [Mike was the fourth person evicted from BB2. He really wasn't in the game long at all.]
• Mike talked to Janelle. He said he knew she had to do what she thought was best for herself in the game. He then said maybe he's better off without Will. [As if! Will carried him into the house and carried him all season!]
• Mike tried to work mojo on Janelle to swing her away from her trust in Erika.
• Erika told Janelle he was just trying to play nice so he can be in the final two.
• Erika and Janelle then discussed their final two dresses again.
• Janelle kept imitating Mike's shocked look when Will was voted out.
• The girls decided they'll both make Mike think they're each taking him to the final two.
• Erika told Janelle that she told her he'd jump off. She thinks he'll throw the next part, too. He's sure one of them will take him to the final two.
• They don't think the next part will be on Wednesday because Big Brother gave them alcohol.
• Janelle's pretty upset that she let go of the key with one hand. She had psyched herself to do the comp.
• BB gave them a sushi feast for dinner.
• Erika is still going on about revenge of Chill Town. She's still mad.
• Mike, alone, told the Internet why he threw the comp. He's sure because he's so hated, he's the best choice for either woman to bring to the final two as either should win against him. He said he would, indeed, try at the second part, but he has no worries or pressure — he knows one will take him. [In a way, he's right. Against him, either woman should win. But I so hope they keep the plan to take each other.]
• He also said "America loves you even more now, Janelle."
• Janelle and Erika rehashed the evils of Chill Town and how they affected both nominations and evictions throughout the show.
• Janelle admitted to Erika that Mike helped her in the doll POV comp by pushing a correct doll her way.
• The women just went on forever, happy with themselves, toasting each other, and going over every wrong Chill Town ever did. Mike wandered aimlessly or perhaps he's just bereft.
• Erika told Janelle she told Will the "gig is up" in her redone goodbye video. [Remember... I said she asked BB if she could redo it once the tides turned.]
• Mike slept on the floor next to the bed in the room where the two women took the beds. Very quiet, very subdued.

• All three houseguests slept in until around 1 PM their time (PT).
• Mike played Solitaire while Erika put on her make-up and Janelle worked out a bit.
• Janelle and Erika think one of the BB Staffers in the Diary Room sounds "cute" and "cool." [Heck, I might be able to sound cute and cool if I wanted to... and I'm not quite either.]
• Erika and Janelle hung together, leaving Mike Boogie to his own misery a lot. Whenever all three gathered, there were huge awkward pauses and uncomfortable silences.
• Janelle told Mike if either she or Erika wins, they will take him to the Final Two. [That was a ploy Janelle and Erika previously discussed — leading him to believe they'd both choose him to throw off his game. I think Janelle was ploying rather than being honest with him.]
• Mike Boogie told Janelle that they've always been honest about things and that she shouldn't let Erika "into her head." [Too little, too late, too many lies.]
• Erika asked Mike Boogie if he's okay and he said he was still shellshocked. He's glad there are only five days left and he misses Will so much.
• Erika said she thinks the second part of the HOH comp will be held tonight. Janelle wondered why at night. No one knows.
• Erika wore Janelle's tiara once again, this time with feeling.
• They played cards.
• There was an odd inside HOH lockdown where we actually heard music... real music. Well, mostly rap music, but not the show theme. However, we saw flame/clouds.
• Erika and Janelle went over past comps and BB house events in preparation for a quiz-related competition.
• Both women still seem to be on the same Anti-Chill Town page and the plan still seems to be to evict Mike Boogie and have an all female final two.
• Mike finally joined them and they talked about show-related Internet websites... not this one. I never get a shout-out from BB houseguests. Sniffle.
• Still no word on when the next part of the HOH will happen.
