RETURN OF THE JEDI
Yes, Howie is a Jedi, a man who dedicates himself to the Jedi arts 24/7. Kaysar confirms his Jedi status and his spot-on light-saber sound effects. Howie assures us that he uses the force for knowledge and self-defense, never for attack or aggression. As a Jedi, Howie feels he can accomplish something real in life, something of essence. It isn't until Kaysar points out Jedis don't have sex that Howie retorts, "You tell Annakin that!" "But he went to the dark side," Kaysar shoots back. Howie's Jedi joy is momentarily dampened as he contemplates the celibate life ahead of him, practicing his new signature, Darth Howie.

Even Ivette comes to Kaysar to plead her case, but Kaysar is not impressed. The same happens with Sarah's visit, as she pleads for anyone but James to go up on the block. James visits soon after, asking Kaysar to put Janelle on the block, warning that "alliances are forming every day." Kaysar sums it all up perfectly as he smiles, "The house is going nuts!"

STRAIGHT OUT OF LEFT FIELD
Kaysar, proving himself a top strategist, calls everyone to the Nomination Ceremony. With little pomp or preamble, he gets to the point. And what a point it is: nominating beloved Maggie and James for eviction. The silence in the room is deafening as the HouseGuests slowly comprehend the consequence of the nominations. The ripple effect will last for a week at least as they consider the upshot and downside of the situation. "It's just chaos in the house now!" Kaysar smiles, and how we love it.

The Power of Veto can save either James or Maggie, but if they are saved, who will replace them on the block? And is that part of Kaysar's master plan? Find out on the next riveting episode of BIG BROTHER 6, Tuesday, July 26, at 9 pm ET/PT, only on CBS.
