It has put a strain on our relationship, says James.
Natalie wont talk to James, unless shes criticizing him.
We should have trusted the people that got Paulie out, she tells him.
I never really trusted Core and Nicole.
It hasbitus in thebutt.
Such butt-biting will not stand.
Staring at her eviction, Natalie makes a bold decision.
I guess Ill get dressed cute every day, she says.
Because it might be my last week.
The other duos watch the fireworks, plotting, encouraging.
The boys agree James is getting a bad rap and in solidarity, plan to keep him around.
Paul and Victor are working James, dreaming of a final-act power trio.
Nicole is onto them as weve learned the past few weeks, Nicole doesnt miss much.
Seeking a happier dream, or at least a less terribly real nightmare, Natalie goes to the bedroom.
Im sleeping in the other bed, she tells James.
I want to sleep alone.
Where did it all go wrong?
Havent they been firmly together, showmanced in the eyes of God and Julie Chen?
Stop fighting with me!
A spotlight falls on Natalie.
All sound fades away.
I cant wait for Thursday, she says.
a violin begins playing on the soundtrackCant wait for my jury eviction.
Cant wait to meet Julie.
Cant wait to go to Jury.
Cant wait to make it across the border.
Cant wait to see my friend, and shake his hand.
Cant wait to see if the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams.
Cant wait heavily guarded.
Cant wait into the sea.
Kill and be killed.
Head in a bag.
Im sad, too.
Ive been sad a lot through this game.
Sensing his moment arrived, James goes on a suicide run.
I pretty much sheltered you from this game throughout the whole game, he accuses.
You think I wasusingyou?
You got into a showmance with Victor, that didnt work, says James.
You were flirting with Corey.
You started doing your fling with Paulie, you kept it a secret til you got mad at him.
James walks outside, sees the other houseguests.
I just let her have everything, he says.
In more ways than one, man.
In more ways than one.
Jeff and Jordan join Julie onstage to announce the impending birth of our savior, a boy.
Do they have a name yet?
Is Moonves a possibility?
Inside the Jury House, the evicted houseguests welcome the newest exile.
Alas, poor Big Meech!
This is good news for Paulie, at least, who declares his full-throated endorsement of Corey.
Was that your closest ally, Corey?
FAST ZOOM ON ZAKIYAH, always the bridesmaid, never the Corey.
DaVonne marvels at Nicoles ascent in the late stage of the game.
I might have a little beef with her, but shes doing the thing!
Question: Can DaVonne host the new CBS All-AccessBig Brother?
Answer: Yes, she can.
The time has come to vote out another houseguest.
Its a landslide, and Natalie is evicted.
Outside, she declares that counter to all the rumors going around she didnotthrow James under the bus.
She just went to the other houseguests and told them she was wrong to trust James.
But she didntliterallythrow James under a bus, because there are no buses inside theBig Brotherhouse, silly!
Anyhow: That was Natalie.
So much for her!
The houseguests begin the HOH battle.
How will the balance of power shift in the new week?
Can James regain momentum?
Or will one dynamic duo emerge victorious?
