Big Brother's Head of Household Shelli Poole determined the week's two official eviction nominations following the Power of Veto competition during Wednesday night's broadcast on CBS.

Big Brother's thirteenth episode began with Jason Roy and John McGuire on the chopping block. John was part of Shelli's alliance, so he had just been nominated as a pawn. It was Shelli's plan to get rid of Jason because they weren't close with one another. Shelli had also been informed by Audrey Middleton that Jason was going after her.

Shelli had confronted Jason about his conversation with Audrey, but he denied saying anything negative about Shelli. Therefore, the HoH wasn't sure whether to believe Audrey because she had pretty much been Public Enemy No. 1 in the house.

Shelli started considering whether she should attempt to evict Jason or Audrey. Shelli told Jason there was a chance she could save him, but he still felt he was going home unless he won the upcoming Power of Veto competition. 

Audrey was mad at Shelli for throwing her under the bus with Jason. Audrey told James Huling she had been loyal to Shelli and Clay Honeycutt but the couple was crazy to think the house wouldn't eventually try to split them up. Audrey was saying they were viewed as a dangerous power couple.

James didn't know why Audrey was confiding in him, so he ratted her out to Clay. James assured Shelli and Clay that he was on their side. Audrey continuously made Clay and Shelli paranoid because she was always strategizing and worried about her position in the game.

Audrey then cried to Clay about being alone, but he assured her that she was safe -- without promising she wouldn't go up on the chopping block as a replacement nominee, because Shelli was weighing the pros and cons of targeting her. Shelli thought Audrey was a good friend but they weren't on the same level game-wise.

Shelli was upset because her goal was to protect Audrey, so she'd feel terrible to nominate her. Shelli could've sent Audrey home already on numerous occasions.

The houseguests then picked who would play in the Power of Veto competition. Shelli, her two nominees -- Jason and John -- were set to play in addition to three people selected at random. Those chosen houseguests were Vanessa Rousso, Meg Maley and James.

James wanted to win the veto so he could pull Jason off the block. Jason felt good about his chances because half the people in the competition would save him, while he might be able to convince the other half to keep him around. Meg told Shelli that if she nominated Audrey as the replacement, she would definitely go home. Vanessa also noted that vote would be unanimous.

Vanessa ended up winning the chemistry-class themed PoV competition.

Afterward, Clay got into a little argument with Audrey about how loyal Shelli had been to her. Audrey cried, saying he was trying to make her feel so ungrateful and unappreciative. When Clay called Audrey out for being paranoid, she lied about having asked him to swear on his life she'd be safe. Audrey denied ever saying that, and the lie infuriated Clay even more.

Audrey said in the diary room that Clay has an A-type personality, meaning "assh-le."

Shelli then confronted Audrey about her lack of trust. Audrey blamed her confusion on other people chatting since Day 1. Instead of smoothing things over, Audrey made things worse by just bringing up other issues.

Audrey also attacked Vanessa for being "an amazing manipulator" as shown in her Jeff Weldon blindside. Vanessa argued it was Jeff's fault for making a scene and her initial plan was to go after James. Vanessa said she didn't manipulate the situation at all.

Vanessa ended up using her PoV to take Jason off the chopping block. Shelli named Audrey the replacement nominee. Audrey didn't take the news well at all because she didn't even show up to the nomination ceremony. Jason noted it was "about damn time" she was put on the block, although he felt bad for her at the same time.
