New week in the Big Brother house and America's favorite groundskeeper, Donny is gone. It's Nicole versus the rest of the house, will she be able to win HOH and keep herself safe this week?

The episode begins with the HOH competition. While the houseguest struggle making it up the slippery slope of the HOH comp , we get a flashback to Frankie trying to flip the house last minute to evict Nicole last week. Derrick shoots the plan down and Cody ends up telling Nicole that Frankie is trying to flip the vote. Nicole is not happy and looks like Frankie may have another target on his back.

Back to the HOH comp and the houseguests aren't looking any better, Derrick and Victoria can barely stay on their feet longer than five seconds. Derrick realizes that he's too far behind to even have a real shot at winning so he decided to take the temptation and fill up the smaller bowl for $5k and 5k 'hollas'. Two hours in and the houseguests are getting tired. Christine,Nicole, Caleb and Frankie are in a four-way tie. Derrick finishes his smaller bowl and wins $5k. Nicole has fallen behind Christine and Caleb so she throws out a little tip to help Christine. I get what Nicole is doing but that tip won't keep her off the block if Christine wins. It comes down to the very end but Beast Mode Cowboy pulls through and wins HOH. Nicole is definitely not safe but let's be honest, in order for her to be safe she needs to win these competitions.

Team America Update: Frankie thinks that Donny didn't pull his weight in TA. I'm sorry, have you guys not won money?! He also says that he doesn't care that America probably hates them now that Donny is out. Frankie says that America will learn to love them.Derrick even realizes that Frankie should probably stop talking. In DR, Derrick tells America that he doesn't want to be guilty by association. That's funny Frankie, I'm sure that America won't learn to like you especially with comments like these. But hey, I guess when you're a social media mogul you don't care about the viewers that voted you as a member of TA in the first place.

Frankie's crazy comments continue when he starts to attack Christine for talking to Nicole. Christine says that Nicole is her friend and she's not going to stop talking to her just because she's going on the block. Frankie counters by saying that Nicole shouldn't get any special treatment. Aww Frankie, you're right. Nicole shouldn't get any special treatment but you're allowed to get out of being a Have-Not week after week over a medical issue. Special treatment?! No. Of course not.

Caleb has to choose the two Have-Nots for the week. Derrick volunteers because he just won $5k but after that there's just silence. No one else wants to volunteer since they have all done it twice besides the mogul Frankie. So Christine points at Frankie to do it but Caleb ignores it and chooses Nicole. Nicole was a Have-Not last week and she's probably going on the block this week so that was so nice of Caleb to make it even worse.

Since there's no more Battle of the Block, CBS is definitely grabbing for footage for these nomination episodes. So this week, we get a segment on Christine's giggling. It's all about how Victoria thinks Christine is fake and there's no way that she could actually think that everything is really that funny. So...yeah that was Victoria's contribution for the week.

Time for the nomination ceremony. Clearly, Nicole is going on the block but who will sit next to her? Only Beast Mode knows. Caleb calls everyone inside to begin the ceremony. Caleb nominates Nicole and Christine. If Nicole wants to save herself, she has to win the POV. And who knows what would even happen then?! It's going to get a little messy,that's for sure.

Find out who wins the Power of Veto, Wednesday at 8/7c on CBS.
