Here is the next round, a day late because of The Amazing Race:Previously on Big Brother 13: What If? Jeff came back to the house after America chose him to compete against Brendon, but he lost the HOH competition to Kalia. Then he had to watch as Dicque and his girlfriend Jordan were nominated, knowing full well that he was probably the target of a backdoor nomination.
Worse yet, he lost the PoV competition to Cassi, who was going to send him to the jury. Although Jeff & Jordan tried to talk Cassi into leaving the nominations where they stood, Cassi used the PoV on Dicque and Kalia backdoored Jeff. In the end, there was a tie vote which Kalia broke and Jeff became the first jury member.
With Jeff gone, it’s time to figure out who the next HOH will be. This competition is called All Washed Up. On the Chenbot’s go, each houseguest will fill up their cup with as much liquid soap as they can, from a barrel, and transfer it across the yard to a bowl. As the bowl fills, a ping pong ball will rise. The first houseguest to fill the bowl to the point of being able to grab the ball and remove it will be the new HOH.
But here’s the thing – the floor they have to walk across between the soap and the bowl is very slippery. It’s like a giant homemade slip-n-slide. So they can’t move too quickly. And that cup they’re using to carry the soap? It’s really small.
And they’re off! Each houseguest is trying a slightly different strategy. Some are taking big, slow steps. Others are sliding their feet. Still others are moving quickly and just sliding at the end. But it’s not slippery enough yet, so more soap is dumped from above them.
Porsche tells us the course is slippery. Jordan knows she has to win or hope that Shelly wins in order to keep herself off the block. Shelly feels the same way. Dicque isn't worried -- he thinks the others are too dumb to go after him.
Cassi, meanwhile, is aware of Jeff's warning about Dicque and she thinks if she or one of her side is the new HOH, she should convince that person to backdoor Dicque while putting up the obvious targets of Jordan and Shelly. Dominic is determined to win something since the first PoV win.
Between the eviction and the HOH competition, Jordan is crying as Shelly consoles her. Cassi is also sympathetic. We go back to the competition, where it looks like Dominic is leading the pack. Kalia and Porsche both hope that one of the Three Amigas is the new HOH. Shelly thinks she’s the only person in the house who knows what a dishwasher is, since no one else cleans. Apparently Adam wanted a Slip N’ Slide for the house, and now he has one.
People start falling. Porsche questions the rain, since it doesn’t usually rain in L.A. Jordan slips, and there are so many bubbles on the course that she actually vanishes for a few seconds. Shelly thinks Jordan's adorable in the humilitard and bubbles but is too worried about losing to think of Jordan.
Some time later, Kalia tries to cheer on Porsche and Cassi. Cassi urges her to cheer on Dominic as well. Dominic is still in the lead, with Cassi in second and Porsche in third. About an hour into the competition, the soap is starting to affect people’s vision, especially Jordan and Adam’s. Adam wipes out, falling hard on his butt.
Dicque checks out the competition, noting that the top three are still the top 3. He slips at that moment. Shelly is giving the competition her all. Dominic is glad that he's doing so well and hopes that he can win this one. Kalia thinks it would be amazing if Porsche won.
Dominic keeps pulling away from Cassi and Porsche, who are both trying just enough to make sure nobody else wins. After an hour and a half, one person extracts the Ping Pong ball:
Chenbot: Congratulations, Dominic, you are the new HOH.
Dominic cheers and hugs Cassi, Porsche and Kalia as the last one gives him the HOH key. He's thrilled that another veteran or at least an ally of the veterans will be in trouble. Porsche is a little frustrated at not winning but is happy that a newbie won. Cassi is glad that Dicque didn't win.

Okay, Dominic is the new HOH. Now it's time to decide both whom Dominic will pick as the Have-Nots (who will have hard boiled eggs and jalapenos as supplements) and who will be the next nominees. I'll take votes until tomorrow and the two (or three) people with the most votes will be on slop, hard boiled eggs and jalapenos while the next two with the most votes will be the nominees.
