Annie and Monet have supposedly been released from sequester, and Andrew wouldn't have gone after Julie gave away Matt's lie. So those three should be out of the running.

'Should' is an ugly word.

In other news:

Kathy is now heading down Slander Road at top speed: her new belief seems to be that Rachel traded out sexual services for trips, gifts, and other fun stuff which Kathy has probably never been offered as a get-out-of-ticket bribe. Plus Rachel will cheat at the POV draw by taking Kathy's name out of the bag. Kathy supposedly wants to go home instead of Hayden or Kristen, but she's still asking America to vote for her and her friends on any Coup because they're 'the good people'. Does any of this sound hauntingly familiar?

(She also thinks Enzo is Brenchel's alliance partner, and much of the cage has noted her ability to give a four-hour answer to a two-second question. Don't get arrested in that town.)

Even Kathy can't block everything: her presence is shutting Hayden & Kristen down, but that just let Rachel & Brendon get some alone time in. From what was picked up on under-the-blankets audio, the dysfunctionality has been consummated. Toss rice. Or hair extensions. Rachel's. Which both Britney and Matt were wearing last night. (Matt didn't know Rachel had extensions until shortly before he put them on. Geniuses don't look at hair. He also can't tell anemia from hemophilia, so he doesn't look at blood either.)

There was some strategy talk before the sex. Brendon now feels Matt is only loyal to Ragan (when he's really only loyal to Matt). But Matt isn't the backup plan. Brenchel's worst-case scenario -- Kathy wins Veto and saves Kristen -- is to use Lane as a pawn, hoping that at least gets Hayden out. (It's an interesting unawares choice in that it would force the Meow2 to make an early decision, but there's no way to tell how the cage would shake out on that one.) On the flipside, a Kathy veto win is also Hayden & Kristen's worst-case scenario -- Kathy going up to replace one of them would mean a chance for both to stay. Yes, Kathy's good people want to get rid of her. That's why they're good people.

Ragan's sniffed out the twist: he openly believes America's picking out a new saboteur. Now if only he can sniff out all the people talking about getting rid of him...

Britney's comedy routine for the night was her Rachel impression, done up and down the house. (Just in case you were wondering what the extensions were being used for.) A lot of shouting was involved. (Rachel laughed, so Britney's not at much risk for being backdoored over that action.) Britney's first preference for this vote is apparently to dump Kristen: her current closest alliance may be Lane.

Britney may now be 'The Sane One'. Worry.
