The eviction for Thursday's episode of Big Brother 17 is pretty much set in stone, so now the houseguests are planning for next week.

Audrey Delays The Veto Ceremony On 'Big Brother' By Staying In The Diary Room For 5 Hours

Audrey Becomes House Pariah on 'Big Brother 17'

Audrey is still the obvious target for eviction on Thursday, with the houseguests more or less set to unanimously evict her. Since going to the Diary Room for five hours on Monday, she has taken to her bed, not talking to anyone or going anywhere else other than the Diary Room.

Because of this, the houseguests were scheming on Tuesday, discussing who to go after next week. It will be a crucial vote, since Liz will probably survive the week, which means her twin sister Julia will be allowed to enter the house and compete as her own person.

Austin and Liz spoke about targeting Steve next week, while Jackie and Jason talked about backdooring Austin, with Liz or Steve as potential pawns.

Meanwhile, Shelli spoke with Vanessa about how strongly she feels about Clay, worrying that things might be different outside the house. Shelli is 33 while Clay is 23, and Shelli thinks that age gap will be more glaring when they're in the outside world.

Big Brother 17 returns for a new episode on Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS. The episode will feature the Power of Veto competition and the Veto ceremony.
