‘Big Brother 18’ live feed spoilers: Conversation preparation

Yes, this is where we’ve come on “Big Brother” this week: Rather than updating on things that have happened, we’re left instead to speculate on things that are going to happen, presumably, later tonight. In other words, it may best to have the live feeds on standby if you’re a subscriber just in case anything happens.

For now, what we’re hearing is that Michelle is going to make an effort to (finally) have some sort of conversation with Nicole and/or Corey about the course of the week and try to make a case to stick around. Given that she hasn’t spoken to her roughly all week, it’s probably going to be weird. The house is extremely fractured right now, but the oddest part of it is that nobody on the James / Natalie / Michelle side is extremely aware of it.

From here, James is going to go in and operate as the “closer,” sealing the deal to ensure Paul goes home. We can’t see this doing anything to change Nicole’s mind on the plan. While Paul may be threatening, it makes no sense for her to keep someone who is targeting her over two people who almost certainly go after her next week. Maybe we could see Paul / Victor pulling something at final five, but they’d split up James and Natalie way before Nicole and Corey. In turn, this is dirty work that neither Nicole nor Corey would have to do in order to take their one-time allies out of the game.

At this point, using the “America likes us better” argument could be one of Michelle and James’ only moves, but they’re probably not desperate enough to go there since they believe she’s safe. Also, it’s an ironic argument since most of the internet doesn’t agree. Casual fans may at least be on their side.
