Its pretty clear Dan is doing anything to stay out of the hangmans noose here. I can't fault Frank for teaming up with Dan he needs somebody to work with him. Jen will but not alone only if he has some numbers
Spoiler!
Oh yeah, this is his hail mary pass... he's not here to win 500K for anyone other then him. So everything he's doing is completely justified... he's an ass for doing it but you gotta do what you gotta do.
I just hate Frank... he get's pissed at people for not just handing him the game. I mean he's furious with Ian right now for being part of the Quack Pack... despite the fact that 1 week after Ian did that he and Boogie were making the Silent Six? He's hated on Dan for plotting to "scumbag" him and a week later he's a half second away from backdooring him? He's just a rank hypocrit. He's Rachel from Season 12... #### social/strategic game and all comps. He doesn't deserve to win. Right now the only ones that do are Dan, Ian, and Britney (and I dislike Dan) I hate having to root for Dan to win.
ya great move by Dan, but he doesn't realize how much he is potentially screwing Danielle. Or he does and he just doesn't care.
It's a great move for Dan because he stays, but Danielle/Frank/Jenn are now in an alliance where Frank can't play for 2 HoH's, Dan throws HoH's, so even if Britney goes it's Danielle and Jenn vs Shane/Ian/Joe
makes less sense for Jenn because she was going to float her way to the f5 at least, now if Britney stays it's her vs Britney/Shane/Ian/Joe for HOH next week, and when Frank inevitably wins Veto she is on the block
I think if Dan really was caring about further than this week he would have talked frank in to putting up Shane or somehow Joe if he could
Spoiler!
This is way is better for Danielle. She doesn't have to choose any sides. She's probably safe for the next 3-4 weeks no matter what and can play both sides. If she's off the block she has to choose sides and vote Britney out. This way there's zero blood on her hands. I'm sure they can sway Joe. He'll vote what the HOH wants. Otherwise, he's choosing a side which he hasn't done to this point. Danielle's chances of staying are closer to 80% which isn't as good as the 99% if she was up against Dan but her chances of staying in the game longer have gone way way up.
Also, no question Dan has planned this from the start. The way he selectively goes through talking about everyone, then gives his "no game playing" speech and THEN lays the hammer on Danielle before immediately talking to Frank right after that. Master plan, no doubt.
Give it 8 hours or so... S12 Britney was always a mess before she needed to go to work. She knows that she has Ian's vote and that Joe said she has his... once she emerges from her fountain of sad she'll go to work on Shane (who'll go to work on Joe). Tough choice for Shane two people that (he thinks has his back) have his back and he's got to make a choice. Regardless of what happens I hope we have an Ian HoH on Thursday continue the epic. See how long it takes Frank to rat out Dan & Danielle.

Danielle is looking good either way If she plays it right. If Britney stays she can claim the what just happened and roll with the Dan is so slimey how did he trick Jen into using Veto. Point the finger at Frank etc.
or
If Britney goes she could still roll with either alliance. Depending on what way she wants to play it.
If Britney gets knocked out Shane will be reeling, and Ian will be in big time panic mode.
Franks days are still number not being able to play HOH for 2 weeks.
If Dan wins HOH this game will get even more wild.
Don't forget he threw comps until it was gametime when won BB.
Shane has apparently decided to keep Danielle. He told Danielle that she is safe and he is voting for her. He is asking her who he should up for HOH if he wins next week. He is saying Frank is the guy he wants out. Seems Britney has come to terms that she is gone as well. Britney is pumping up Danielle telling her that Shane, Ian and her need to work together and win HOH next week. Funny that nobody knows about Danielle/Dan/Frank/Jenn's final 4 deal. Danielle is sitting pretty. She should try and get Joe out next week and then she has everybody on her side. By golly, Dan's plan worked! Like I said before, Dan is amazingly good.

Whoa... slow down, it's been three hours since ceremony and there are three days until eviction. That's a lifetime in the BB House. I really really really hope Ian wins HoH on Thursday. Better TV.

It's a done deal. 3 votes is what it takes and the 3 votes are not changing. Already been talked about in the open.

it's nowhere near a done deal
Spoiler!
he has been telling Britney to keep fighting, and mentioned talking to Joe about it
he's told Frank/Dani he will keep Dani
told Britney/Ian he will keep Britney
until you can see his Diary room session I don't think anyone really knows
and even if he had made up his mind, there's 2 days for all of them to change their minds
yesterday it was 99% Dan was gone
As was said above Britney is just extremely emotional and saying let me go etc., once she realizes Dani was involved all hell could break loose. She did this in s12 but the brigade was obviously not going to turn, nowhere near the same scenario here.

thanks for posting. After i viewed it CBS must have already yanked it. I was suprised Dan didn't have a verbal blasting of Danielle its kind of just the way she reacted afterwards. When women turn on the waterworks all bets are off. Not what I expected at all. Dan was very calm about the whole thing and everyone didn't seem particulary offended until Danielle started balling. They were all moved at what Dan said about them idividually and were more or less kind of more or less a "huh" type of reaction after what he said to Danielle. I think there would have been little anger towards Dan if Danielle didn't start sobbing and sobbing. Danielle is so overly fragile anytime the game isn't all roses, her heart is too easily broken for a show like this. You would have to be a hardened person somewhat to succeed through BB. With that said it was a bizarre BB moment

Non-update: Shane told Joe (in private) that he's 50-50 on who to keep/send home.
Spoiler!
he's begging to be told a side, all it needs is for them to realize that the fact Danielle is still talking to Dan means that they are working together
Danielle has to crack at some point as well, I think once Britney gets in fighting mode and stops feeling sorry for herself she will figure it out and they will go for it
