Round Four! Allison and Joshuah Fight! Big Brother 9

Judith Blakley
Just prior to the Nomination Ceremony where Joshuah and Sharon nominated Ryan, Allison, Matt and Natalie, Allison changed tactics and decided to attempt to make amends with Joshuah. As time goes on in this Big Brother house, it has become apparent that Allison is passive aggressive in her behavior towards people. A perfect example of that is that when she came upstairs to the HOH room to try to make amends with Joshuah, she came in asking if she could talk to Sharon. Joshuah said "I don't care." And instead of talking to Sharon, Allison spoke to Joshuah. This is the same thing she did outside the previous night. She told Ryan she was going to talk to Sharon about something Sharon had said about her, but she did not do that. She started by asking Sharon if Sharon was mad at her. When Sharon said "No, we're good." Allison started to walk towards the house making a speech about Joshuah towards Sharon in front of Joshuah in order to bait him into an argument.

For readers who missed all of that drama, you can catch up by reading my articles "Restraining Order Issued in the Big Brother 9 House" (CLICK HERE), "Round Two! Allison and Joshuah Fight in the Big Brother 9 House" (CLICK HERE) and "Round Three! Allison and Joshuah Fight Again! Big Brother 9" (CLICK HERE).

Allison started off apologizing to Joshuah about last night. She said that she only watched one season of Big Brother and was not aware that people played mind games on the show, so she was not prepared for that.

Allison Throws Shelia Under The Bus:

Allison blamed the entire lesbian couple thing on Shelia. She said that she wanted to be truthful to everyone and that the whole thing was stupid. Joshuah said it was a stupid thing to do. Allison agreed. Allison said that she knows it was a hurtful thing to do to lie about something like that, but that Shelia pushed her into doing it. Allison said that Amanda had made her life miserable by that time and she was weak and agreed to it.

Sharon tells Allison what Natalie told her how Allison wants to get her and Joshuah out of the game and that Allison is telling people that Matt has her back in the game. Allison said that she would love to have that conversation with Matt and Natalie because she never said any of that.

Allison changes the conversation back to the lesbian story and blaming it all on Shelia. Sharon said that she heard the lie from several different people and all their stories match. Allison swears on her mother's life that it was Shelia who started the story. Sharon reminds Allison that Allison told her earlier in the game that it was her (Allison) who started the story. Allison denies it and said that she would pull Shelia into the room to debate it, but that there has been enough drama in the house already.

Allison told Sharon and Joshuah that she adores them as people. Allison told them that Shelia talks bad about everyone in the house, including them, and it annoys her because she is not that type of person. She reminds Josh of the times that he came to her to complain about the way Shelia was treating Adam.

Allison Throws Ryan Under The Bus:

Allison told them "From the get-go, there has been a real disconnect between Ryan and me. We have not operated as partners at all." She then told them that she "Did not understand why Ryan was so gung-ho about keeping Matt and Natalie... Voting out Alex and Amanda was not my decision."

Sharon said she feels badly for Alex about how he did not campaign thinking he already had the votes to stay, and how Allison kept coming to her and Josh saying "'We've got to get Matt and Natalie out' and then..." Allison said "I hear you, but don't, like, put that on my shoulders...if I hadn't voted with Ryan, we would have been the ones evicted." Sharon said "I was bawling when Alex and Amanda got evicted." Allison repeated that it was not hers, but Ryan's decision.

Allison Tries To Make A Deal:

Allison asked Josh to look at her and then said "Josh, you know how much I love you." Josh said "I know, but I don't understand why you told everyone that I said I would slit your throat." Josh told her that the producers played it back for him in the Diary Room and it was never said, which is why he is still here in the game. Josh also told Allison that it was him who came up with the five feet thing, not the producers. She said she did not understand. Josh said that the producers asked him to give her her personal space and he asked them how much space while suggesting five feet, which the producers agreed to. Allison said the producers must be telling them different things, because they told her something completely different. Josh dismissed her with "Okay, I'm tired... I have a great team.. Best of luck when you're put on the block."

Allison tries to make a deal with them by telling that she and Ryan will do whatever Joshuah and Sharon tell them to for the rest of the game. She believes she and Ryan would be the best couple to take to the final two because nobody would vote for her and Ryan to win the money.

Allison Throws Ryan Under The Bus Again:

Allison explains that she had just come off the block after fourteen days and she told Ryan that she would do whatever he wanted. Sharon told Allison that she felt betrayed because they did not use the Veto last week because they were counting on Allison and Ryan's vote to keep Alex and Amanda. Allison said "I was exhausted, I really didn't care, so I went along with Ryan without asking any questions."

Sharon told Allison that she is now hearing that Allison and Ryan are coming after them. Allison said that she never said that because Joshuah and Sharon are not the strongest couple. Allison said that she and Ryan are partners and neither of them have told anyone that they would go after Joshuah and Sharon. Allison said "I have literally not been in this game as much as I should have been. I have been exhausted and sick." Allison told them that anyone taking Matt and Natalie to the end would lose.

Sharon brought up the whole thing about Allison telling everyone that Sharon called her a name. Allison tried to blame that on Ryan, but Sharon was not having it. Sharon said that last night, Ryan never said that he heard it, he was asking what happened. Allison changes the subject back to it being Ryan who was "Dead set on keeping Matt and Natalie and I don't know why." She told them that if they had sat her down and told her that they really wanted Matt and Natalie to go, she would have voted that way. Allison begs Joshuah to look at her because she is trying to get past all this.

Allison Playing It Off Like It Never Happened:

Allison said that she thought that Joshuah was just acting yesterday and she was playing along. She offered to continue playing along as if Joshuah is really mad at her, which she suggests would be a great move for Joshuah and Sharon.

Joshuah was called to the Diary Room and Allison asked for a hug from him before he left. He did not hug her back until she insisted.

Allison Messed Up:

Before Allison left the room, she asked Sharon if she could ask her one more thing and she asked if it was really Natalie who came to her (Sharon) and told her that she and Ryan were coming after her and Joshuah. Sharon said "Yes." And even though Allison has slipped up several times while in the HOH room during this conversation, this is the biggest one. Allison replies "I can't believe it! After it was me who..." And she stops herself from saying that she was the one who saved them. Allison said that she cannot believe Natalie said that because it never happened. Sharon asks her not to go downstairs and start more drama with Natalie over this. Allison said she will only tell Ryan, if that is okay with Sharon. Then she promises she and Ryan will vote however Josh and Sharon want them to. She repeated, once again, that it was Shelia who was responsible for the lesbian couple lie. She left after saying that their two couples could be a "Power house."

The Fallout:

As soon as Allison left, Chelsia comes in and talks to Sharon about her conversation with Allison. Chelsia said that it does make sense to use this as an opportunity to get rid of Matt and Natalie. Sharon said "No." Chelsia said they should nominated Matt and Natalie with Allison and Ryan and see what happens with the POV. James came into the room and the girls tell him what they were talking about. He asks them if they are seriously thinking about keeping Allison. When they don't answer, he says that if they do "They must be smoking crack." Chelsia and Sharon begin talking about how competitive Matt and Natalie are. James told them that Allison told everyone that Chelsia said the final two would be James and Chelsia and Joshuah and Sharon. James said that everyone is downstairs talking about it. He said when Allison came out of the HOH room, she was smiling. He said it would be crazy to keep her this week. Chelsia gets angry with James for bringing up how she accidentally told Allison about the final two when she was drunk and she leaves the HOH room.

Chelsia confronts Allison about the whole final two thing and Allison just laughs at her calling it ridiculous. Chelsia is upset about people thinking she wants her final two to be with Joshuah and Sharon and Allison keeps telling her it is nothing. Then Allison tried to sell Chelsia on getting rid of Matt and Natalie this week.

Chelsia made an announcement to the whole house that she never said anything about the final two. Adam and James both speak up and say that Allison had told them that she had. Ryan said he believes the whole thing was misinterpreted. Chelsia goes to bed angry.

James goes outside and tells Adam and Matt that Allison is trying to flip things around and get Matt and Natalie evicted. Matt said Allison did the same thing last week. The guys talk about how Allison messes with people and James said that she is now working on the girls to get Matt and Natalie out this week. They talk about Operation Gardener.

Josh is out of the Diary Room and back up in the HOH room with Sharon. He claims that was a last ditch effort by Allison and he is not falling for it. He said that if Matt and Natalie win the POV, he will put Adam and Shelia up to make them sweat it. Natalie comes up to talk to Josh and Sharon and they tell her how Allison threw her under the bus.

Next, Shelia came up to the HOH room and they talked about how Allison threw her under the bus. Shelia said the whole lesbian couple story was Allison's idea and Allison got upset with her for ending it without telling her about it first.

Nominations were made just shortly after this ended and Matt and Natalie were nominated with Ryan and Allison.
