Episode #10 - Not Even on the Block

Dodger: "I heard from someone that Mulan and Pocahontas were both targeting you as a back-up because they thought you were close with me. But now I'm hearing differently from Mulan and what she's saying makes sense. So I'm not sure who to believe.

Please don't tell Mulan. It would just make her feel more at risk and I'm not sure she should feel at risk at all right now."

Elsa: "I won't tell her. Wow so maybe someone is trying to play games with us."

Dodger: "I'm honestly confused and don't know what to think right now."


A flashback of right before eviction when Mulan and Gaston had a heated discussion about the game.


Mulan: "Seriously? You put me up? I thought we weren't just allies but friends? And to top it off you don't even message me telling me anything about it?

So I'm going home right?"

Gaston: "This was NOT the plan! Pocahontas told me she won veto. The plan was suppose to be to take one of you off and backdoor dodger so that he didn't have any time to talk to people and gather votes. Why do you think I went to sleep immediately after?? I thought it was ducking solid! Do you really believe I want two of the people I've been working with being evicted?? I even told Narrissa about this plan! It was set in stone!! Had I known she done so poorly I would have never put you both up!!"

Mulan: "Ugh, tbh I think you can trust Dodger. I've been speaking with him and his not that bad I think his alone in this game quite a bit.

I know that Pocahontas wants Elsa out though? Why do me you and Elsa not have a room btw?

It wasn't so much that I don't trust/believe you, it was more because I woke up cause I went out last night and saw that I was up for nominations from someone who I thought was a super close ally to me. Then Dodger wins veto and uses it on neither of us, so it just looked like you guys had worked together to split me and Pocahontas up.

It's fine, I'm really not mad it was just a shock. I know that people are talking about this girls alliance but this was made WAY before me and you started getting close. I have been in an awkward situation because I wanted to work with you more than I wanted to work with them etc. I never mentioned you to anyone because you were someone I didn't want people knowing that I was close with.

I knew I could count on you when I needed you later down the line. It's fine though, if I do end up leaving I will really have no hard feelings it's all a big misunderstanding and a lot of that is partially my fault cause I haven't been 100% honest because I was scared.

I wish you nothing but luck in the game <3"

Gaston: "Girls alliance? To be honest, I hadn't even considered it.

And I can see how this looks like we're working together, but I want him out 100%. No one can beat him if he makes it to the end. I know that. And It's okay if you weren't 100% honest. Sometimes you have to hide certain things from your alliance members... no big deal. As long as you have good intentions, that's all that matters."

Mulan: "lol. Am I going home? What the hell is going on Gaston? I'm super sad."

Gaston: "Dude, you're not going home. I want the girls here 100%. I took Queen off to make it seem like you still hate me, which you probably do. Anyway, I wanted another guy up, so that I could pitch to Elsa to keep you. You have to trust me. I know it's hard, but you have to. I set this up this way for multiple reasons. It doesn't make sense, I know, but it makes sense for us in the long run. I don't want you going anywhere."

Mulan: "Dude? I am not in my warrior costume today. Okay, I trust you, I just need to be updated in your thought process every so often x"


And now, the 9th Head of Household challenge.




Elsa: "What?"





Neal Cassidy: "PM me the right number."

Elsa: "12"

Neal Cassidy: "No"

Elsa: "I get it now."


After a short time




Gaston: "Wow. Congrats Dodger."

Queen Narissa: "Congrats Dodger"

Olaf: "Congratulations dodger!!"

Dodger: "Thank you everyone."


Dodger goes for a walk in the backyard to get his juices flowing. Gaston was already out there working on his muscles.


Gaston: "Ha! Me too! Congrats man! Did we just alternate wins? Ha!"

Dodger: "Yeah I think we just alternated wins. And we probably alternated POV too."

Gaston: "I'm just hoping that last one was quick enough."

Dodger: "Alright. Nominations. This is going to suck no matter what. Thoughts?"

Gaston: "We are in sync, as I did not open my phone until the second round!

Thoughts:

There's
Queen
Olaf
Elsa
Mulan

Mulan didn't show up, so to me, that's an easy target.

Olaf? How much do you trust him? Do you think he'll help you when you need him?
Elsa? Same for her? What does she offer you? Does she give you any information? If she doesn't that means she doesn't trust you.
Queen? - Does she benefit your game by staying? Has she made a strike against you?

And I probably won veto (hopefully) so with that, I can take off whoever you want if you change your mind..."

Dodger: "Mulan is the only one who has made a strike against me. I hate to do it because I do like her and she's becoming a yo-yo.

Queen I trust in some weird way. But I did nominate her.

I trust Elsa I just think she's torn with Mulan.

Olaf. I think he's desperate. And I hate to do this.

I'm thinking nominate Queen and Mulan. If you win the POV then take Queen off. It will be between Elsa and Olaf and Olaf can't hold that against me too much.

Would you be alright with that?"

Gaston: "Yup. They all gotta go sometime. It sucks. Trust me, the last round was incredibly hard for me to do, but she had to go. She was coming after you hardcore and that's not good for the both of us.

If you want me to use veto I am fine with that. Narissa also went for veto.. So there is a possibility that she won... just throwing that out there. Either way the plan will remain the same. The veto gets used."

OK. You're going to hate me for this but I've thought it out and checked my facts.

The POV winner was probably Gaston or you if you played for it. I already asked Gaston and he said he'd use it to save you. Olaf played for HOH. I nominated you last round so that's expected this time. If I nominate Olaf when you're available he'll be upset. But if I nominate him when he and Elsa are the only 2 possibilities he'll understand I think.

I'm nominating you but I already have it planned that you won't stay on the block.

Then I get this

This is super risky, and I may be starting a war with this guy, but I want to take you off the block. I don't want you getting evicted or anything like that. This game is super weird and you need someone to trust. I think I can trust you.

Dodger was ready to nominate.




Dodger: "Nice gif.  I got street savoir faire! I also have hotdogs.

Here goes

The players look at everyone in shock. Neal comes in right away to announce the veto winner.

Gaston's Diary Room

Dodger asked me if I were to win POV would I use it on Narissa. Of course I'd use veto to take Narissa down! In fact, that's been my plan since he won... It would strengthen our bond and she'd think I'm with her 100%... duh of course! LMFAO

Queen Narissa: "OMG cover that up.


Dodger I still have some apples for you, they are very yummy"

Olaf: "Congratulations Gaston!!"

Dodger: "You can force feed me all the apples you have when this is all done. "

Gaston: ""

Elsa: "Lol Gaston. Thanks Dodger."


Gaston and Dodger go off to the kitchen quickly.


Gaston: "Okay, so I won. Crazy. Are these guys throwing comps orrrr?"

Dodger: "Throwing competitions this late in the game without a 3-4 person alliance from the beginning backing you... That's crazy.

Try to give it a little time so it sounds like I'm asking you to not use it."

Gaston: "You want it to seem like you don't want me to use it? Just want to clarify."

Dodger: "Actually screw it. Post whenever you want. We can get this over with early for once."


Things were moving along quite rapidly tonight. Gaston already made up his mind about the veto.


Gaston: "Hi.

This is the veto ceremony.

I have decided

Spoiler:

"

Queen Narissa: "  Thank you so Gaston, no apples for you"

Dodger: "I get all the apples!

This is hard.  To replace Queen Narissa I nominate

Dodger's Diary Room

I fell into a great ally. I need to make sure I don't screw this up for him. Next challenge, I'm making sure to read all the rules (it's no secret I notoriously suck with question-based, trivia-based, and first to answer challenges, though... I think maybe I see something that requires me to answer a question, or anything remotely similar, and I panic... heh). Can we do another writing challenge or something? Maybe a game of poker? <3

Olaf's Diary Room

Darn nominated again. It would have been nice if dodger had the audacity to tell me that I was going on the block. Apparently he isn't brave enough to do so. This tells me that dodger and Elsa are a pair. I also believe Queen and gaston are a two. I hope Mulan isn't with them or I am out. Knowing my luck they are a group of three and I will be out. Just will have to wait and see I have asked everyone to stay. So I know I've tried.

Quote :

Gaston's Diary Room

Now, I plan on keeping Olaf here and getting rid of Mulan if I have the votes... Olaf will be my #2.

Mulan: "Lol this is disgraceful."





Olaf: "

I would like to stay in this game I hope you keep me.

"


Dodger and Gaston go up to the HOH room and don't even give a poop on who sees anymore.


Dodger: "lol! I feel like Olaf is onto me.

It's up to you if you'd rather have Olaf or Narissa on the block. Olaf was our babysitting task though. And I think you have a better relationship with Narissa. So it would work out."

Gaston: "Olaf is freaky, man. He should go. TBH, I wish we got rid of him pre jury. He's a wildcard."

Dodger: "What did he do?"

Gaston: "I don't know. I just have mixed feelings about him. He's helpful for now, but sooner or later he will be a nuisance. Mulan can go too though. I don't really care."

Dodger: "After this round no one else is really helpful and it's nominating them or we'll be nominated by them. No way around it. There will be us and 3 other people. Elsa won't want to evict Mulan. So it will be you and Narissa if you evict her. Mulan is more threatening than Olaf though.

I'm leaving that one up to you guys though."

Gaston: "Yeah, I'm thinking about it in pairs:

Elsa/Mulan

Olaf

Queen

You/Me

We break up the next pair... as simple as that."

Dodger: "Yeah. Sounds reasonable to me."


Mulan smells what the rock is cooking and she pulls Queen N in the pantry.


Mulan: "Why are you not even speaking to me? What the hell is going on? I had your back..."

Queen Narissa: "Sorry I was yesterday, not ignoring you. I have no idea why gaston kept me unless it was their plan all along"

Mulan: "Okay, I don't know what is going on. Apparently Lady told them all about our girls alliance"

Queen Narissa: "I have no idea whats going on, no one will tell who told about the girls allaince. Im sure you will be going tonight and I will be next because I cant be here for the comp tonight"

Mulan: "God, how did we not see this coming! It is so sad that someone like Olaf who has literally done nothing will stay over us two."





Queen Narissa: "I know, people probaly figure he will be easy to beat in the finals. I guess it was that one comp we lost, its been down hill since, the girls morale is low"

Mulan: "And I really thought we stood a chance of winning. They're super slimy at this rate, that fake "I was gonna put Dodger and backdoor him" plan from Gaston was so transparent that I thought I was Ariel in the sea again.

Literally, I hope there is some kind of twist where someone can come back and cause some chaos because they are all super tacky."

Queen Narissa: "I hope so to. Im keeping you but I dont think it will help. Maybe we can talk elsa into going against them then us 3 can make it."

Mulan: "Gaston is saying that he voting to keep me and that he wants Olaf out? This is so weird. I am going to go all in for the HOH if I stay we need to get some power back."

Queen Narissa: "Well Elsa wont answer me so if she will talk to you and you explain that she cant beat Gaston and Dodger in the finals because of their wins maybe it will work"

Mulan: "poop on this Elsa Gretel, she is a super HOLD THE DOOR. Right now Narissa it's only me and you I feel. Wow that block on swearing made me look like a mad person. "





Queen Narissa: "Maybe you can work on Gaston. I will vote Olaf but I will probaly be the only one."


Queen N decides to try again with Elsa.


Queen Narissa: "Hey congrats on being safe. Any idea on the vote"

Elsa: "No. Ahh! I like you both."

Queen Narissa: "LOL im not even on the block its Olaf and Mulan"

Elsa: "Lol I missed veto. What did you do?"

Queen Narissa: ""


Elsa excuses herself to go get herself a snow cone. On her way, she bumps into Mulan.


Mulan: "Would you vote to keep me? I really don't want to leave."

Elsa: "I want to. I think I will keep you though."

Mulan: "Lady said that me, Poc and her had a room? That isn't true. I do however have a room with Narissa/Poc/Lady/Me but that was from a few rounds ago. If you want to know what happened here is the story:

They formed an alliance together and this was before you used the veto on me. When you used the veto on me I insisted that we drop that room and set up a room with you instead. Thats when Neals Angels was created. I am 100% close with Pocahontas but I am equally close with you followed by Gaston I guess? So I was kind of put in an awkward situation which is why a few rounds ago I mentioned Gaston and Dodger to you because I wanted to do something."

Elsa: "Oh ok. I get it. I guess people were worried about that. But also Boo. You had a room with her and Pocahontas too right? The Spice girls.

I heard that you or Pocahontas said I told people about our alliance?"

Mulan: "Sorry but I haven't really been active the last couple of days so haven't really spoken to anyone. It wasn't me who said you had told people about the girls alliance, however I did have my presumptions.

Yes there was a room with boo and Pocohantas but I guess that is kind of irrelevant now seeing that boo and Pocohantas are out.

I guess all I can really say is who do you think can further your time in this game?  I personally think I can help you way more and I have your back regardless of what others have said."

Elsa: "I know I'm keeping you."


Dodger asks Elsa for a moment of her time.


Dodger: "Please save Olaf and vote to evict Mulan. I know that's a lot to ask and I understand if you don't. But please at least consider it."

Elsa: "I am thinking. Ugh why did Gaston do that!"

Dodger: "People did a lot of unexpected things this round.

It's alright."

Gaston's Diary Room

Changed my mind... Maybe I'll keep Mulan.

Would Mulan meet her end soon after her good friend Pocahontas or would poor innocent Olaf get the boot? The players were ready to vote.




Olaf: "Some people are worth melting for. Good luck all!"

Queen Narissa: "Bye Olaf"

Wow some of you are harsh when I was nothing but sweet

I agree Olaf <3 haters to the left to the left

Sorry Olaf.

Good episodes, Emma. If you could make me look more like a hero... maybe edit a few things here and there... that'd be great. I'll have my people your call people? K.

I'll be waiting <3

lol, Olaf.  A lot of the banter is playing to how each thought the other perceived you... and people let on that they perceived you poorly to try to deflect from actually liking you and wanting to work with you.  Don't take it too seriously.

And Emma!  That Diary of mine about a "great ally" was from the following round, after an earlier entry about how I was sure Gaston would screw me over with the nominations when I didn't think I'd won POV.  Just sayin'! But I like how you're making me look super-loyal but kind of clueless in contrast with Gaston. <3

Ooops I thought it was because you were worried he would nominate you

Don't worry, my edit its terrible too, buddy.

Ha! I actually like both of our edits. I don't think either is 100% accurate, but it adds a lot of intrigue to the episodes. I love how Emma often contrasts our diaries - makes for great episodes.

He should have been. LOL kidding.

I love this!

You know what, I'm done. All this negativity about my writing has pushed me to the edge and I'm cancelling the season.

I'm just pulling your d***. - Veronica

Where is that from? 10 points to whoever gets the reference.

Heathers


I'm clearly joking lol

*GASP*

You only have 2 more episodes to go (I think?). Don't stop now! You can do it!

Really, the episodes are great, and thank you for writing them.

Welcome, and thanks yall for reading them and for the material. I have to finish this before the weekend ends as I will be away/busy all next week. So expect a finale by Sunday.

Make sure to use a great photo of me. Remember... I'm the star. (Sorry Dodger) lol

Great photo - that reminds me. I'm still mad you guys never used the photo of me using the fire hydrant as a bidet. Except in Neal's interview - which also reminds me, I really think our discussion of quantum physics was the highlight of the game. You're the worst, Emma.

My interview was great. Can I post mines? It was really good.

Dodger don't worry I don't usually take these things seriously it's a game lol.

I am glad to know I got evicted when I thought I did. I am still unsure on the where the confusion came from. I was worried I missed something.

I was going to discuss quantum physics with everyone in their interviews, but I got lazy and forgot lmao

Out of curiosity, who was nominated more: Mulan or Olaf?

Olaf: 3
Mulan: 4

I made charts of everything, and maps connecting everyone (ha!) throughout the game, and that seems to be the count. On that note, Olaf - yeah, you were right. I almost corrected it, but it didn't seem that important and I didn't want to intrude on Gaston's conversations in the jury thread. I think it was just a simple case of miscounting. Still a great job and you made it really far.

Since I never got my interview you will never know my thoughts on quantum physics although I enjoy the mechanics side more but it is a shame.

I am kinda interested in seeing these maps and charts seems like an interesting way to spend some time. I am glad I knew when I went, I already have the airhead reputation didn't need to add that to it.
