TEACHER GETS EXPELLED 4-0

Gerry opens what could be his last day in the BIG BROTHER House with a quote from Winston Churchill: "You can lose every battle but the last one." He adds that he is aware of the generation gap between himself and the other HouseGuests and is aware that it has affected his performance in the game.

Roddy sits with Gerry in the hammock and rehashes the demise of all alliances in the game, from the all-girl and all-guy groups to the couples and the original hot tub alliance. Gerry recalls Roddy's statement that in the game, memories fade, but points out that he remembers that Roddy was a component in almost all the alliances that existed. In the Diary Room, Marcellas says, "perception is everything," while Gerry tells Roddy that the perception is that he's smarter than everyone else in the House. Gerry adds, with no disrespect intended, "You're not."

As Marcellas says, though, perception is everything, and Lisa says she thinks that everyone will be going after Roddy next week. Marcellas agrees, saying that a battle of wills is developing between Roddy and Danielle, each of whom is scared of the other. Roddy and Danielle both make overtures to Lisa to get her on their side, but Lisa comes away wondering why everyone "buckles under" to Roddy. Jason, Danielle's silent partner, tells her in the hot tub that he never feels manipulated by her when they talk, whereas with everyone else he does feel that way. Amy offers a different opinion, saying that she wants Marcellas to win HoH because she thinks he'll nominate Roddy and Danielle against one another.

THE GROUP DISCUSSION
Host Julie Chen talks to the group, with Amy and Gerry in their places as nominees. She starts by asking Roddy how he feels to not be nominated for the first time in two weeks. Roddy says it feels like he's "been paroled," but is sad because of the bond he's formed with both nominees. Julie follows up and asks him which departed HouseGuest he misses most. Not surprisingly, Roddy answers Chiara, both for the intense bond they shared and for the fact that she is the most recent evictee. Julie tells the group that after tonight, with half their original twelve gone, the Map Room (or High Rent District) will be closed, forcing one of them back onto an army cot. Danielle says that she's already agreed to take the cot, but adds that she has her eye on the HoH room. Danielle also takes an opportunity to thank America and her husband Javier for the inspirational video message she received after winning the last America's Choice Competition. Julie talks to Jason privately in the HoH room about his tumultuous reign, asking him about his decision to nominate Gerry and Amy. Jason says that he simply has trust in Roddy as an ally and stands by the fact that he gave his word to Roddy and Chiara before her eviction. Julie asks Jason about his repeated refrain that Roddy has "looked out for him" during the game. Jason explains that, based on things he's heard, Roddy has stood up for him and prevented him from being nominated. Jason adds that his tough decision regarding nominations has given way to an easy week, made easier by the perks of power, specifically crediting Dunkin' Donuts for the "sugar buzz" the House has been on all week.

WHERE'S THE FIRE?
Back in Connecticut, Eric has rejoined his other "family," his fellow firefighters, most of whom are ready and willing to bust his chops for things he did in the House. They make fun of Eric for his frequent appearances without a shirt, and laugh that when he left he swore he wasn't looking to "hook up." Eric says that everyone is curious about his relationship with Lisa and is pleased that he doesn't regard it as just a fling. He admits that he was hurt when Lisa didn't vote for him to return to the House, but understands now that it was a strategic move on her part, and it wouldn't have mattered overall, since he didn't have the votes to go back in anyway. In the House, Lisa says she can't wait to have her first date with Eric without cameras.
