If you were Aaryn and you became HOH, you'd be pretty excited, especially considering that your alliance has been picked off one by one each week, right? Oh wait, you made a deal with Helen and Elissa that basically rendered you powerless so... ya know... enjoy the HOH room and the letter from home because that's about the only bright spot here.

Word gets out about the deal that Aaryn made, and everyone assumes it's Elissa. Wrong! It was Jessie who told Candice who told Helen. Candice asked Helen to keep her and Howard safe but Helen interpreted it as some kind of threat, making sure that everyone knew about it too. People can throw out Aaryn's name, or Howard's, or Amanda's, or McCrae's but it's Helen everyone needs to watch out for!

Howard, Spencer, and Candice all try to encourage Aaryn to take this opportunity to make a power move but Aaryn seems set on keeping up her end of the deal. Once this week is over, she's going to go right back to being a target but she seems to be naively hold out hope that the attention will be shifted away from her. Candice especially feels that she didn't get anywhere in her conversation with Aaryn and takes out her frustration on Howard, telling him to leave her alone and not talk to her anymore. Paranoia is definitely getting the best of her this week, and she's feeling like he's just running game on her and nothing more.

CBS Crossover Alert! The houseguests gather in the living room for a special message from Poppy Montgomery, of the CBS show Unforgettable. She reveals that this week's Have Not competition is a two parter. In round one, teams of four stack pieces of evidence onto a table and in round two, they have to put it back where they found it. Andy, McCrae, Elissa and Aaryn fly through both tasks, while the other two groups talk over one another and frantically try to fix their mistakes. While Andy celebrates FINALLY being a Have for once, Gina Marie, Amanda, Candice and Judd accept the fact that slop is in their future.

Well, it would've been nice to see Aaryn make a power move but she did exactly what Helen and Elissa wanted, nominating Howard and Spencer for eviction. It'll be interesting to see who America chooses as the third nominee, and I'm doubtful it'll be Elissa again, since I'm pretty sure viewers were confused last week and thought they were voting her MVP. Facepalm!
