Big Brother Summary for September 1st  9/1/05

The show opens with Julie revealing that this is another double eviction night. The new HoH will have to nominate 2 people tonight, with another eviction on Saturday.

Scenes from the past week: We see James trying to talk Ivette into voting out Howie. Ivette says that she is able to bond with James. She goes to Maggie and the rest of her group and talks to them about keeping James. James has a plan that if he can get Ivette and Beau to vote for Howie, then maybe he can get Janelle to vote out Howie also. Janelle says she doesn't know since Howie hasn't done well on the competitions maybe she should keep James. James continues to work on Ivette. 

Back to live show: Janelle says the call to Michael meant so much to her and she thanks the viewers for letting her have the phone call. Julie asks 3 of the HG's questions from the viewers. She asks Maggie how she has lost so much weight. She says that she is working out a lot and that she owes it to the people in the house also. Julie then asks Ivette if she won HoH, what would she want most in the HoH room. She says a picture of her girlfriend. Julie then asks Beau after living in the house, who would the worst permanent roommate. He says Janelle because she leaves clothes all over the house. 

We go to April's family and friends. Her friends think she needs to be less vocal with her feelings. Her husband says that at first Howie seemed like a funny guy, but now he doesn't like him for the way he treated April. He thinks April is doing great in the game and has a good chance to be there at the end. Julie interviews April next. April just wanted to come into the game and play under the radar. But the minute she felt she had to step it up, she did with the HoH competition and the Veto competition. She says she is in an alliance with Maggie now. 

We go to the jury house now and see how Jennifer and Rachel are doing. She says that Rachel is the one person she would like to see the least because she is boring. Of course, she hugs Rachel when she shows up and acts excited to her. She takes Rachel for a tour of the house and they watch the events from the past week. She tells Rachel she knows her group and is happy with Rachel being voted out. 

The vote will be live. All of the HG's vote for James so by a vote of 4-0, James is evicted from the BB house. Julie asks James how he survived all these weeks. He says that they screwed up so bad and didn't get him out. She asks James if he would have stayed true to the first alliance with the 6. He says definitely. James says that he will stay friends with Ivette out of the house because she is an amazing person. 

The HoH competition is called Playing It Straight. Each HG will have 2 chances to roll the ball down the beam. There are different point values on the beam. Maggie goes first and gets 2 points, then 5 for a total of 7. Then Beau gets 5 with his first roll, then 6 points with his second roll, for a total of 11. Ivette gets 5 on her first roll, and 4 for her second roll, for a total of 9. Janelle gets 6 points on her first roll and 2 on her second roll. Howie goes last. He gets 6 points for his first and second roll, for a total of 12. Howie is the new HoH!

The HG's are then told that it is a double eviction night. Howie is then told he must nominate 2 HG's immediately. He nominates Ivette and Beau. Julie says a surprise visitor will stop by on the Saturday's show.
