We have a three-way tie between a veteran (not Dicque) and two newbies, so I'll have to break the tie:

Cassi isn't happy at being put on the block since she knows Dominic has support from Keith, Lawon and Porsche. She's planning on throwing herself on the mercy of the vets but only if she or Dominic doesn't win the POV.

Dominic is determined to win the POV. He knows that if he doesn't or if Cassi doesn't win it for him, the veterans are more likely to vote against him! Rachel says that she is torn between her desire to evict Cassi and Brendon's insistence that Dominic is a bigger target.

Jeff wants Dominic out more than Cassi, thinking that Cassi is less likely to turn against him than Dominic is. Kalia is upset that she and Keith aren't on the block as she wants to get rid of Keith.

After the nomination ceremony, Rachel calls Cassi up to the HOH room. Brendon and Dicque are there as well (Daniele is resting in her bedroom). There, Radon tells Cassi that she will be safe if she throws the POV competition to them.

Cassi says that although she's tempted she can't really throw the POV competition to them as she thinks they'll respect her less if she actually agrees. She points out that Rachel last season seemed to base her decisions on how well people did in the challenges.

Rachel can't believe Cassi won't do what she says and calls Cassi stupid. Cassi leaves and Radon bashes her for her so-called "idiocy". However, Dicque respects Cassi for wanting to compete and save herself.

Cassi goes down and tells Dominic about Radon's offer. She adds that she'll only take it if she loses POV to them, but that she plans to give it her all before then. Dominic is happy that Cassi plans to go all-out for the POV.

Meanwhile, Daniele is not feeling well at all. She thinks that she's come down with a cold or the flu and wants the medic to check her out. Dicque is not happy with this turn of events, as it means Daniele might be out and he won't get to compete until the Top 10.

Adam, Cassi, Dominic, Keith, Lawon and Porsche are all in the library bedroom talking about what they should do in case Cassi or Dominic wins the Veto and takes themselves off the block. They decide to get Rachel to put up either Lawon & Shelly or Keith and Kalia.

Dominic tells us in confessional that the newbies really want Rachel to put up Dicque and Daniele but they doubt she'll do so. They also doubt she'll put up Jeff & Jordan. Still, Cassi plans to at least float the idea around in case she or Dominic wins the POV competition.

Meanwhile, Daniele is checked by the medic. She's now having chills. Daniele has the flu and she must decide whether to stay in the House or leave. Daniele doesn't want to give the flu to her father, so she decides to leave. She goes to the Diary Room to confirm her decision.

Dicque is called to the Diary Room and is told Daniele has the flu and has chosen to leave the competition. He is not happy with this turn of events and when he leaves, everyone can see he's not happy.

Then Rachel is called in to be told the bad news. She emerges with a card in her hand from production, which tells the other houseguests (except for Dicque, who already knows) that Daniele came down with the flu and chose to leave. This means that Dicque will get the first Golden Key and will be guaranteed a spot in the Top 10. Although he will be allowed to vote, he will not be able to compete in competitions.

Dicque notes in confessional that this means the veterans might be screwed. Although he can still vote, he can't compete and he's now stuck with at least one person he can barely stand -- Rachel. Dominic, meanwhile, is thrilled with this latest development, since this takes away a vote from the veterans. Still, he knows he must win the POV competition or hope that Cassi does so.

****************************************************************

Okay, I chose to have Daniele get the flu and have to leave. This means Dicque has the first Golden Key. Now I want you to decide which pair will compete with Radon and Caasi & Dominic for the POV competition. Then, I want you to vote on which person wins the POV competition. I will take votes until tonight and the one with the most votes will get the Veto.

I want either Cassi or Dominic to win the Veto (preferably Cassi as I liked her more), so if there is a tie between a vet (especially Rachel or Brendon) and either Cassi or Dominic, I will break the tie in favor of Cassi or Dominic.
