The remaining HoH, James, talked to Jason Roy, who got dethroned from being HoH, about how there were 16 houseguests total and three of them couldn't vote because they were the HoH and the nominees. So the pair determined they needed seven votes total to backdoor Jace and get him out.
James and Jason were already in an alliance with Audrey Middleton and Da'Vonne Rogers. The guys decided to try to get Meg Maley and Clay Honeycutt on their side. Clay was really excited about working with James because he liked him and thought he could trust him. Da'Vonne, however, noted the alliance was "temporary" and "shaky" because there were players she wanted to take to the end but there were also houseguests she didn't trust.
Jace then randomly streaked through the house. Austin said Jace had to keep his cool because he'd be associated with his behavior in the house. Austin could see Jace getting on people's nerves because he was so vocal, so he tried to nip the idea of Jace being a target in the bud.
Austin and Jace then joined Audrey and James in the HoH room, and Audrey spoke about making a big move.
Austin corrected her by saying it's nearly impossible to make a big move on Week 1 because no one has really established themselves in the house yet. Audrey argued, however, it would be a big move to backdoor the former HoH. Jace liked that idea, although Audrey was totally fooling them, and suggested they should call their foursome "Cloud Town." James also pretended to be onboard, but Jace was still his No. 1 target.
Afterwards, Jeff Weldon and Da'Vonne got into a little tiff because he called her out for creepily lurking through his bedroom. She got pissed because she said the whole house belonged to everyone, and then Jeff apologized, but she knew he was just trying to do some damage control. Shelli Poole and Clay were in the room at the time, so Da'Vonne felt she could no longer trust either of them. Da'Vonne had started out the game in an alliance with Shelli and Audrey, so that appeared to be crumbling.
Jeff confided in Clay about how he thought Da'Vonne was acting like a "b-tch." Clay tried to make things right with Da'Vonne, but she just left the conversation thinking he was a big, fat liar. Clay called her out on having a negative attitude and Da'Vonne cried even more.
However, for the sake of their alliance, they both put on a good face for one another. Da'Vonne, who recognized Audrey had put Clay up to saying sorry, wasn't going to forgive Clay, and Clay was simply annoyed with her and being insincere.
Because Da'Vonne was fighting with houseguests and getting so emotional, Audrey said in a confessional that Da'Vonne was going to be a liability to her game. Audrey kept asking her to keep her cool and relax.
It then became time for the Power of Veto competition. James, Steve and Jackie played as well as John McGuire, Jason, and Becky Burgess. Steve ended up winning the competition.
In the middle of the night, at about 5AM, Audrey gathered her troops into one bedroom. She tracked down Jason, James, Jeff, Meg, Shelli and Clay. She wanted to get everyone onboard with the Jace vote and thought they'd be a solid crew for her to work with. But because of Audrey's paranoia and constant strategizing, James questioned whether he wanted to continue working with her. Jeff also dubbed her a huge "sketchball."

Jace later cried because he thought he was tight with James but James went back on his word. Austin grew worried about his best buddy, and Jackie said in a confessional she needed to make sure people wouldn't flip on her.
