Episode #45 - Worm

I also want to take this moment to say that even though I give Red and Jiminy a hard time, it's only to give them a villain edit. I appreciate all players who put in the time for this game. <3

Belle French's Diary Room

I decided to go with evicting Hook because as much as people claim that Hatter may be throwing all the comps, there's no real proof to show that he's doing that. So I just have to go with what I've seen, also Hook hasn't actually talked to me to try to pitch a case to save himself while Hatter actually did take the time. He's still going to go unless Jiminy did a major mind change like he did in the round with Mulan and Genie, but I tried.

Jiminy wants to take me to the finals and while I like having half the f4 want to take me, the fact that he managed to survive to finals would be a great selling point to a jury. Also he's won a lot of comps and made a lot of moves to get rid of big players. Taking him to finals would have to purely bank on them being bitter and not recognizing what big moves they were. But if they're not bitter and find it impressive he made it that far when so many people were after him he could talk his way into a win.

Captain Hook's Diary Room

Hatter is gone. Sad *cries*

I only have Red, but it's just not the same. Hatter was my bro for life. His name is in yellow now. I can't deal. I need a minute.


EFF YOU JIMINY!!!

Captain Hook: "I guess we are just Red Hook now. lol Red Hookers"

Red Riding Hood: "Red Hatted Hookers. Haha.

This sucks so much. So so much"

Captain Hook: "I know. I decided to reach out to Belle. She claims she does not want Jiminy in finals either because he will win, but I don't know if I can trust her so I am not getting my hopes up. Hopefully me or you win the challenges."

Red Riding Hood: "At lease she's on the same page. I'm hoping... I think we can pull it through. I will meditate if I have to. lol"

Captain Hook: "haha yes I will do that too."

Red Riding Hood: "Good Luck!"


Time to wake these people up and throw the last Head of Household on them.

Jiminy Cricket's Diary Room

Kind of sucks Belle is going to win this HOH. Red and I definitely wanted Hook to be HOH so it wouldn't matter if he won veto too. Now tomorrow truly is due or die, must win or I am done.


I remember earlier in the game, a veto where Emma posted things to find in the IMDb site. Belle posted an answer before you even edited to be able to find lol.... and red flag, she is using a board reader.


Doesn't work 100% of the time, but if it is who has the most by the end of the hour... put your money on Belle kids.


It is what it is, I'd be abusing it were I eligible to compete, but ughhh.

After some hard work, a winner was crowned.




Jiminy Cricket: "Interesting. Congrats Hook."

Red Riding Hood: "Congrats, Hook!"

Captain Hook: "I looked over my answers and everything is right.

I will be back in about 10 minutes to make my nominations if I am really the winner. lol"

Belle French: "Congrats Hook."

Emma Swan: "Neal looked over them and seems to think my count was good.


I would hate to take it back later but Congratulations Captain Hook you have made finals."

Captain Hook: "Thanks!!! Smile

As you all know, these noms don't mean much at f4, but I choose to nominate Belle and Jiminy."

Jiminy Cricket: "But what about our final 3 of you me and Hatter?


This is brutal. Ultimate Betrayal."

Belle French: "I understand"


Red runs over to congratulate Hook personally


Red Riding Hood: "CONGRATS!! I cannot wait to squash that little bug!"

Captain Hook: "Thanks! That was such a stressful challenge. I have a headache now. Sad

We have to get that POV tomorrow!!!!"

Red Riding Hood: "You beat me by one! So funny.

Let's get that veto..."

Captain Hook: "Has Jiminy been talking to you trying to get you to keep him if he doesn't win veto?"

Red Riding Hood: "Nope. I think he knows he doesn't have a chance in hell with me. I wouldn't even look at a PM if he's sent one, but I will quote if one comes up. We all need a good laugh here and there.

Belle has reached out though. She says she wants F3 with you and myself. I even did a DR about it. I want him to pay for ruining our F4. Though I'm sure Emma thinks I'm crazy by now. haha"

Captain Hook: "He hasn't written me either. I think he is so freakin' confident that he is going to win tomorrow. Just like tonight how he was saying he would have found all 101 signatures. Rolling Eyes I wanted to rip out his throat with my hook. I can't stand him!!!

A f3 with you and Belle would be awesome!!"

Red Riding Hood: "I know. I read that and rolled my eyes so incredibly hard. How obnoxious? I believe that if he doesn't win veto he won't bother with us either... But who knows??

Yeah. Belle seems like a nice girl and she's not as annoying as Jiminy. It's mean to say but its true."

Captain Hook: "haha it is not mean at all compared to the stuff I said about him in my DR. He just annoys me so much.

I doubt he writes us either, but idk. He is too into this game, I just don't see him going without a fight."

Red Riding Hood: "Well he has no shot so... Lol."

Captain Hook: "Exactly. lol"


Pretending she has to get some shut eye to be energized for veto the next morning, Red leaves and sneaks into Jiminy's room.


Jiminy Cricket: "If Belle doesn't win veto, we are GOLDEN. It is 3 vs 1 and they don't realize I am not the 1 in the situation."

Red Riding Hood: "He beat me by 1. -_- I had quite a few misspellings...

This is good news!!"

Jiminy Cricket: "I know it is strange to be happy you lost, but Taylor Swift it and shake it off.


This was ideal. Now Hook is in finals, and all we have to do is ensure we are sitting there next to him.


Worst case, Belle wins and you go and represent! Best case, you and I crush Hooks game tag team style during jury Q&A.



Though I have been thinking. Just has to know about our Final 2. Tink must have said how we had a final 3, and they are smart enough to piece everything together after that."

Red Riding Hood: "I know, because this gives us the power to vote andddd it grants us the opportunity to make one final big move.

I do wonder if Tink has mentioned it. Those wheels are probably turning... These people are so gullible that if you peed on them, they'd think it were water. It's crazy."

Jiminy Cricket's Diary Room

This is why I need to be more optimistic.



This was the perfect scenario. Hook winning opens up options that were not available were Red or Belle to in it.

It maximizes our opportunity to keep me.


It is redundant at this point but:

If Red or I win veto, we take each other. Duh.


If Hook wins veto.. he keeps Red off the block under the assumption she will evict me, and then she doesn't and we put the final nail in the coffin of Hook's sub-par game.


If Belle wins.. I am up unicorn farts's creek.




But I will be optimistic. In this situation, Red and I do not necessarily HAVE to win. It is just a case where Belle can not. That favors us odds wise.





Preferably I would like to win, but the cocky cricket side of me wants to throw it to Hook just to have him look silly to the jury.



I am very happy. Final 4 (at least) and another great, fun, game under my belt. Thank you hosts... I do believe this is one of my last DR entries. Thank you for everything!

Red Riding Hood's Diary Room

Like I've said before, I'm not sure if I will be able to beat Jiminy in finals. I know people value comp wins a lot in these games, but that doesn't mean I'm going to turn my back on him. And also let's be real... I threw 97% of comps... I'm hoping if I express that to the jury and ultimately the strategical moves I've made... It will influence them to vote for me. I plan on expressing that I didn't need comp wins to successfully boot people in this game. I never was a target (even when people KNEW I was lying to them... heck I even got Hatter/Hook to THROW a veto to me).... I think I played a stellar game, and I hope the jury sees that.

But... let's not get carried away. Just one more comp away from jury. I definitely don't want to be Vanessa'ed. But also... Jiminy winning is me winning, so as long as one of us wins... I'm stoked. We helped each other so much and we played brilliantly. These jurors won't know what hit them.

Red went back to her room, she noticed Belle was still awake.

Belle French's Diary Room

I've decided that Jiminy can't make the finals if Hook, Red and I have anything to say about it. I don't dislike him anymore, but he's made some pretty impressive moves to evict big names. He could talk his way to a win pretty easy if they decide to vote on gameplay and not personal feelings. We just have to make sure he doesn't win Veto. Everyone (unless they're lying) says that they want me in the final 3, even if they don't think they can beat me. They just want Jiminy gone. Of course I like that, but I'm not discounting a surprise..

Red Riding Hood: "I know I for sure want you in F3, so if noms stay the same... that's where I stand."

Belle French: "I want you in f3 too. Just curious, who would you want as the third person? I personally know who I would prefer now, I'm wondering if we're on the same page."

Red Riding Hood: "Well Hook is already in F3, and if things go as planned, we will be there too. Let's do this girl!"

Belle French: "I know, I had a bit of a brainfart. I guess I meant if you had had the choice between Hook and Jiminy who would you have gotten rid of?"


Red pretends to fall asleep.


It was already light out, the players got ready and went outside for their last challenge of the season.

Captain Hook's Diary Room

YESSSSS I won HOH tonight which means I am in finals!!! Very Happy I honestly didn't think I would make it this far. Coming into the game, I hadn't played in a while and the cast was huge. I thought I would be one of the first out. lol but I a so happy to still be here. I don't know if I can win, but I am going to try my hardest.

Mad Hatter wanted me to make finals and I did. I know he will be happy. I miss him. Sad

I am praying to God that Jiminy doesn't win that POV tomorrow. I will be sweating blood and tears to get it so we can send him packing. I need some dark magic to use on him. I really hate him.

Emma Swan: "*starts mourning the fact that this is the last challenge*"

Jiminy Cricket: "Hmmmm, at least it is not an all night endurance.


Post!"


After many moons.




Red Riding Hood: "Congrats Hook!"

Jiminy Cricket: "Congrats , good job."


Captain Hook: "lol at that photoshopped pic of me.

I am not using the POV."

Emma Swan: "The 2 you guys failed to find are


What am I? (1 Word) CLUE


My first is eyesight (The letter C for see)
My second is French Her (The letter L for Elle)
My third is YOU (The letter U for you)
My fourth is cell signalling vitamin (The letter E for Vitamin E)"


Jiminy Cricket: "Well, I guess you just made it official Hook.


Well done."

Red Riding Hood: "The third stupid letter... I kept thinking "I""

Emma Swan: "Everyone ready to find out what #2 was? READY TO FEEL SILLY?"

Red Riding Hood: "Yes please, so I can go to bed."

Captain Hook: "Please tell us. lol"

Jiminy Cricket: "Spit it out woman"

Emma Swan: ""Riddle #2" (7 points)

I'm a hole, I crawl and animals should fear me, what am I?

Spoiler:

"

Jiminy Cricket: "Meh, I don't feel too silly for that one."

Captain Hook: "OMGGGGGG lmao"

Red Riding Hood: "Really Emma?? Really??? Really??????? Wtf??? I'm out of here. Goodnight y'all! I'll be back later... I have to eat."

Emma Swan: "True Jiminy but you didn't get any of the others so really.......No Red I need you to stay actually, for real. All jokes aside you have a deadline on an important decision."

Jiminy Cricket: "You are making me into a joke Emma, and you are NOT going to like the punchline."

Emma Swan: "<3 love you always"


Red took some time to think things through, or did she?


Red Riding Hood: "WE DID IT B.I.T.C.H.E.S.!!!!

"

Jiminy Cricket: " "


Red gathers everyone around to render her verdict.




Belle French: "Congratulations Red."

Red Riding Hood: "Hey guys,

In this game, it's important that you find that one person you connect with and trust wholeheartedly, a person you plan on staying loyal to no matter what. With that being said, I vote to evict

Spoiler:

I'm really sorry, but you are a phenomenal little beast, and no matter who you were sitting next to (Hook included), the result would have been the same, because you were the little engine that could. Be proud of the game you played, because you dominated, and you would have taken these finals by storm. Take this as a compliment.

Now for you 2 and all the members of the jury... your wheels are probably turning... What's going on??... Why would she do that... Well... If you all still have not figured it out by now:

Spoiler:

and I have had a F2 deal since Week 1 (shocking I know), and we have been working together ever since. Though he gets a lot of flack for "betraying" you all, it was definitely a collaborative effort. We shared everything with each other, we told each other about every bad word spoken about the other, everything we heard that was going on in the game since week 1 (everything) was talked about. We tag teamed every single aspect of this game, down to this very final move (of me staying off the block to keep him here). It was our little secret, and we both kept it while keeping each other safe, in a very crucial and unpredictable week, and ultimately throughout the entire game. I'm sorry, but I could never get rid of my little bug. I hope you all understand."




Jiminy Cricket: "Well it was a great game ya'll, I had a good time. I'll see you all....





Thank you Red. Words would not do justice for how much of a pleasure it has been working with someone like you. Implicit trust, great strategy, and the ability to keep 1 really big secret.

Belle... you would have won this game and 100% deserved it. You were the underdog in every sense of the word. Hook, thank you very much for not putting Red up buddy "

Red Riding Hood's Diary Room

Woah. I never thought I'd make it this far in the game. Like seriously. If people knew who I was I'd be toast, but considering they don't... mission accomplished... Sure I knew I would at least make jury, but come on... I've been throwing comps... I've shown my cards multiple times... I've gotten people to THROW veto to me (AND THEN I SENT THEM HOME) and people still have taken me far... WTF? What are these people on crack??

If everything goes as planned... Hook, myself or Jiminy would win veto (thing is... I don't even have to win... I'm safe regardless).... and of course... Evict Belle... She's the underdog and has played a phenomenal game in that regard, so there's no way I'm taking her to finals if given the opportunity to do otherwise... She's gotta go... I can't believe that Hook is buying the I hate jiminy nonsense I've been selling... Silly boys... tricks are for kids...
