America's Player time. America decides not to fuck with Eric, and orders him to vote out Jameka. Eric is relieved; he needs "fighting this battle by [his] side." Dude, it's not Normandy. Calm down.
Eric takes Daniele outside and asks her -- as a friend, and not because he's going to try to change her mind or anything -- whether she'll be voting out Jessica. Daniele takes about ten minutes to answer, and then does so with her terrible poker face of a grin, "No, you're good." So convincing! Eric's even sweatier than usual as he says that Jessica would kill him if she knew he was doing this, but he's begging Daniele for Jessica's life. Daniele: "No worries." I swear, I cannot believe Eric bought this shit. She's not even trying.
And then we have to get another eyeful of Julie, who tells the houseguests about the "worldwind [sic]" that is tonight's episode. Everyone looks freaked out, and then Jessica and Jameka are dancing for their lives. Jameka hopes her time in the house isn't over. She's been true to her world throughout the game. Jessica didn't think anything would be harder than sharing the house with her childhood rival (remember that?), but that being nominated against Jameka was worse. She'll be happy whether she stays or goes. To the votes!
Eric is first. Julie uses their time together to tell him that America will still be texting in their votes as to whom Eric should try to get nominated, and that Julie will let him know his target by asking him or her, after the HoH competition, to lead the houseguests back inside. Boy, that's a lot of pressure on Julie not to fuck it up and be all like, "Houseguests! Eric, can you lead...I mean, can you...Zach is...Jameka...But first!" And then she just spontaneously reboots herself.
Anyway, next is Dick. He votes to evict Jessica.
Julie weirdly vamps with Daniele for five minutes before finally remembering to ask for her vote. Of course, she votes with Dick, to evict Jessica.
So Jessica's out. She looks momentarily surprised, but manages to keep it together. She walks straight past Dick, Daniele, and Zach, who all make themselves scarce. Eric hugs her like he's drowning and she's a styrofoam cooler that happened to float by, and she gives him the briefest peck in creation, hugs Jameka, hugs Eric again, and leaves.
