Welcome to the nomination ceremony. I've unexpectedly won another Head of Household competition, which means it's my duty to nominate two people for eviction this week.
When I first saw that I had won, I was happy and nervous at the same time. Happy that I had made the final 6, nervous about making the nominations and getting my hands dirty...again. I'm going to apologize here to those who don't receive their key. This isn't personal, it's solely strategic. I do believe that everyone left in the game is a legit threat in their own right.
We've come to a point where there aren't that many options anymore. I had to look at the house as a whole, people's relationships with me and with others, really look at the dynamics, try to figure out exactly where I fit into people's plans. I'll try to explain my decision a little bit at the end, I'm expecting people to be disappointed, maybe a little confused...
I'll pull the first key...

Nathan, you are safe.
As you can see, I've nominated Sarah and Nakomis for eviction.
I like you both. That's not what this is about. I feel terrible, but I have to keep reminding myself that we are playing a game, and hopefully you both realize that this is what I feel is best. For a while now, people have been telling me you are the ones to look out for. Both of you are extemely good players. I believe that the two of you are closer than you let on, and I know that others agree...and at this point in the game, a pair, especially one like you, is deadly. If I'm wrong about this, then I'm sorry. Individually, you're still big threats. Sarah, you've won 3 vetos in a row, that's pretty impressive. Maybe you'll make it four.
You've also been playing it safe, trying not to make waves but people have taken notice. Nakomis, you've won 2 HOHs, and I'm expecting if you survive this week that you'll win the next one. You've also seemed to not make a lot of enemies...actually, neither of you have ever been nominated until now, thought I'd give some people a break. Still I wanted to give you each a shot at veto. So good luck.
If you've got questions, you can look for me later.
The nomination ceremony is ended.
