Julie gets back on the viewscreen, and the nominee's body language says it all. Spencer lounges back in his chair with his legs crossed like he's not going anywhere, while Judd sits on the edge of his cushion like it's a starting block. Julie "breaks" the "news" to the house about the unanimous vote. As Judd runs to grab his hat and then hugs everyone goodbye, Elissa loudly says, "Judd, this has nothing to do with me." Well, now it does. He's off, leaving behind a house full of weepy, hugging, gullible idiots.
Out in the studio, Julie speaks for a nation when she says, "Uh, Judd? What just happened?" Judd says he got "the good old blindside tonight." He doesn't have any more idea what happened than anyone else, but he suspects that maybe he shouldn't have trusted Amanda and McCrae so much. Julie wonders who's in charge inside the house, and Judd says Amanda and Helen. Even he knows that. Judd runs down way too many names of people he was loyal to, and Julie sends him off to the jury house. Then she's got another week of shows to plug, and she signs off. But not before some customary eavesdropping. Even after that, these people are going to have some explaining to do on Sunday night. Too bad I'll miss it.
