Jeff pwns Russell
This recap & analysis is by Capgirl, originally posted at BB Chatter:
I've watched it back a few times now, and Russ openly admitted that what he said didn't matter, what deals he may or may not have had didn't matter... he was just angry that Jeff broke his word. This shows Russ is holding himself to a different standard. Also, Russ started that fight, no doubt about it.
Jeff's comment about the neck stabbing came AFTER Russ's threat.
But, it's all hilarious because Russ says what he says doesn't matter. He essentially negates his own arguments, and probably his own threats too.
Per Russ, "I could have told them the sky was f*cking pink. If I wanted it to be pink, it could be pink. What I told you may have been different than what I told someone else. So how do you know what I said to you wasn't true?"
In other words, Russ is telling them his word is probably crap but you just have to trust him, and how dare you question the idea that his word might actually BE crap, even though he just told you it was.
I don't get all of the Jeff hatred all of a sudden. From the day the feeds started we've all known that Russ has deals with everyone. And Russ is so predictable that we all knew he'd react this way. Russ was bested by his own rather lame game play. Russ is pissed that he got caught...and he's using threats of violence, which may or may not actually be threats because he might not really mean what he says... but we just have to believe him because he says it?
Here's the transcript of the start of the fight:
J: What's up, yo? You want to talk about it?
R: Go for it.
J: I mean, you got anything to say?
R: Huh?
J: You gotta know it was a smart move on my play. [pause] You don't think so?
R: [pause] [quietly] ... I just--
J: Huh?
R: It's....
J: Dude, I know you're upset now. But, you gotta think about what's best for you in this house, you know?
R: Do you know what you said right there?
J: What'd I say?
R: When you were sitting right there?
J: What'd I say?
R: You said,"If any of us change the f*cking plan, I'll go after you and your family." Do you remember that?
J: [while swalling a drink] Mmm-hmm.
R: Do you remember saying that?
J: Yeah, I do.
[pause]
J: But who broke the plan first? We had a Final 4 deal, not Final 2 deals on the side, so who broke the plan first?
R: That's not what you said. You said--
J: You're answering questions like -- when you and Michelle, when I was asking you questions. I'm saying, "Who broke the deal first?"
R: No one broke the deal...
J: And I answered your question.
R: We said Final 4, right?
J: Yeah, Final 4.
R: That's it. That's all we said.
J: And you and Michelle have a Final 2 deal, so that's breaking the Final 4 deal.
R: That doesn't matter. No, it doesn't break the Final 4 deal--
J: How are you're looking -- you're jumping the gun, man.
R: It doesn't break the Final 4 deal because the Final 4 is before the Final 2. So it doesn't matter. I could have told them the sky was f*cking pink. If I wanted it to be pink, it could be pink. What I told you may have been different than what I told someone else. So how do you know what I said to you wasn't true? That's what I'm saying?
J: I do know!
R: You probably said sh*t to everyone else in this house... right? Exactly!
J: Sh*t about what?
R: I could say anything to anyone, but it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter at all.
J: Apparently it does, because I just used the veto and obviously it does matter because you were saying sh*t and I just caught you.
R: No, no. I said we would do the Final 4 and then came back and you sat here- you sat right there and you said, "If one of you go against it, I'll come after you and your family." Let me tell you this, right now. If you don't f*cking win this game, you better hope to God you don't come to that f*cking Jury House. 'Cause I will mop your face all up and down the ground and I f*cking meant it.
J: [laughs]
R: I'm just sayin' that because don't ever threaten me. And don't ever threaten my family...
J: Honestly, I will lose five hundred thousand dollars and bust you in the mouth right now if you talk to me like that again. okay?
And that's where the explosion of F-bombs is set off with threats of neck-stabbing and security and what-not. But, I think people missed this beginning, and totally important revelation from Russell. His word is crap, and he knows it. If he tells you the sky is pink... then the sky better stay pink in your eyes, even though he's telling your neighbor it's blue and another neighbor that it's purple.
It's funny to watch him.
I suppose it's like a used car salesman who says, "I'm a crook and I will tell you anything to sell this car..which by the say has really low mileage, only one owner and was really well cared for and if you don't buy it, you're an idiot."

Russ did in fact respond to jeff with a “UH HUH” when asked if he thought it was a good move. Jeff, although he says he’s joking, has been making threats of violence throughout the game. The deal made was for the final 4 not the final 2…so realistically, Jeff broke the deal 1st. JMHO
