The episode revolved around Jessie finding out that she was the target all along. When the discussion went back to Judd being the MVP, someone said he probably wasn't because he hadn't campaigned against Amanda, Helen refuted that by saying that he could have been using Jessie as his mouthpiece. That infuriated Jessie who confronted Helen about being on board with eliminating Amanda. Helen backpedaled as fast as she could, saying she had no recollection of telling Jessie she wanted Amanda gone. Helen really looked foolish doing so because everyone heard her and knew she was lying.
Next, Jessie told GM that Aaryn was saying bad things about her. GM blew up and went after Aaryn, following her around like a frustrated kid. GM really does behave like a toddler at times. She woke up the whole house to expose Aaryn but she was the one that looked bad instead. (Not only by her actions but her face also. She had no make up on and I can just imagine how bad she must look in HD!)
Jessie was voted out 6-0 so we have to see Spencer's ugly face for one more week. I don't understand how Helen thinks Spencer will help her game more than Jessie but she wanted her vote to be the last word in her argument with Jessie. If that is a win then it is a Pyrrhic victory. Once more, Elissa voted for the person she liked more. It must be the new math she's using where subtracting friends adds jury votes. The ratio of jurors that don't hate Elissa is growing but the proportions of them that don't care for her is a bigger ratio.
The goal of the competition was to identify a challenge through a song. The first to ring in with the correct answer of either HoH, Veto or Have/Have not would survive and choose the next two to face off. I don't remember the exact order but no one put McCrae against Amanda until Aaryn won her question and had no one else but them to put up. Helen and Elissa were eliminated early on. Amanda beat McCrae in the next to last question but then Aaryn won the final question and is HoH for the 4th time, not 3rd as Chenbot mistakenly said at first.
Aaryn told the Chenbot that winning Hoh is nice for the protection it offers but it has it's bad side.
At the end, Julie confirms that there will be a returning player. The 3 present jurors and the one that will follow next week will compete for the right to return.
