To summarize, the Sixth Sense was almost exposed.......... almost.
Following Shelli's grueling punishment, her and Clay plotted their pitch to James. They planned on throwing Steve under the bus. Their additional pitch to James was that they (Clelli) would remain a huge target in the house, and they told Meg/James to feel free to put them up next week if their side was to win HOH again. When it came time to throwing names around, Clelli mentioned that it would be beneficial for all their games if they sent a floater, like Steve, home.
"Steve" was the wrong answer. I genuinely believe that James would have been fine using the POV to make a big move, but Clelli were not giving him enough information. James was practically begging them to throw anyone under the bus, but Clelli wouldn't budge. The conversation ended and Clelli were content with their attempts at throwing Steve under the bus. Meg and James quickly decided against it.
Next, Meg and James pull Austin and the twins up to the HOH room. The plan for the Sixth Sense was for everyone to throw Steve under the bus in order to make James think that backdooring Steve is what the house genuinely wanted. However, neither Austin nor the twins pushed hard for a Steve backdoor and instead Meg attempted at solidifying an alliance between the five of them + Jackie. They also talked about the vote where James expressed his wish of seeing Shelli voted out. Austin and the twins agree to vote whichever way James wants.
Meanwhile, Clay and Shelli sit in the backyard thinking their conversation with James went well. They are approached by John who admits that he told Jackie that if he were to have won HOH that week that he would have nominated her, and that it was Clelli who were the ones that were in his (John's) ear about not being able to trust her. This ensues epic Shelli tears, and John apologizes for throwing them under the bus but claims to only have done it to mask their "alliance". Clay and Shelli are convinced the reason Meg/James were acting strange toward them was because of this, when in reality Jackie hadn't yet told anyone that John told her that Clelli felt threatened by her.
Shelli storms into the bathroom and corners Julia. Shelli tells Julia that she is upset because she doesn't feel as if anyone is sticking up for her and Clay after all they had done for Austin and the twins the week prior. Julia escapes the conversation and runs up to the HOH room, claiming that Shelli was being a "bitch" to her. Julia is not happy and declares that Shelli had made her decision to vote her out this week an easy one. Later, Vanessa (Derrick) gets wind of what happened with Shelli and attempts to diffuse the situation. She tells Austin and the twins that Clelli staying in the game is better for them and that a Steve backdoor would be ideal. At the same time, James is telling Steve that people had been throwing his name under the bus.
However, Clay and Shelli still ain't happy. Shelli considers throwing the entire Sixth Sense alliance under the bus in order for James to use the Veto. This scenario becomes more of a potential reality after Meg tells Clelli that Austin and the twins were not pushing for a Steve backdoor. This infuriates Shelli and she tells Meg that she has "so much" information to tell her, but ultimately decides against it. Clay and Shelli were microseconds away from spilling all the beans.
The night progressed and nothing more much happened in terms of gameplay. Clay, Shelli and Vanessa kept pushing Austin to throw Steve under the bus, and Shelli eventually outed "Judas" to James. James was clearly not content with Shelli's refusal to throw names out there. He flat out told her and Clay that if she didn't start throwing names, he wouldn't use the Veto. Also throughout the night, James, Meg and Jackie continued to piece the Sixth Sense together themselves, reasoning that there was a high possibility of a certain group working together based on Shelli having pushed for Austin to stay the week prior, which she ended up having admitted to Meg during her struggle of whether or not to expose the Sixth Sense. James considered using the POV but ultimately decided against it. Nominations are staying the same. Shelli tried.
Shelli is so dumb. I would have spilled the beans when giving the opportunity. What's the point of keeping an alliance in tact when you won't be around?
CourtneyYates I don't think Shelli wants to tank her game like that because she believes she's staying this week as Clay continues to tell everyone to vote him out.
