Mallory’s Position After Episode 7
One event best captured Mallory’s position at the cutoff: Mallory continued protecting Melody and retained her earlier reciprocal deal with Devens.
Devens used the veto on Lyric and named Rome as the replacement nominee. Lyric became safe and told Devens that she owed him, while Jason, Melody, and Rome became the three players headed to the Blockbuster. The competition and eviction had not happened at this cutoff.
Current Position: Rank 5 of 16 with a Total Power Score of 12.

Current Ratings
Clearest Supporting Evidence
| Power | Evidence and Response | Why It Mattered and Where It Stopped |
|---|---|---|
| Referent Power | Mallory continued protecting Melody and retained her earlier reciprocal deal with Devens. | That response supports the rating. The episode did not show the same influence reaching beyond the people named here. |
| Relationships and Information | Mallory → Melody was the most relevant relationship path at this cutoff. | The relationship mattered because it changed a real choice. The alliance name alone did not prove wider influence. |
03
Relationships and Alliances
Most Significant Relationship
Mallory → Melody · Relationship to Watch

Most Significant Alliance or Group
Relationships Remain, but No Group Acts Together
For Mallory, mallory still had relationships to work with, but Episode 7 did not show a new alliance changing a major choice.

Position Analysis
Where Mallory Stands After Episode 7
Mallory’s position rested most heavily on Referent Power. The episode record shows those strengths at work: Mallory continued protecting Melody and retained her earlier reciprocal deal with Devens.
Bottom Line: Mallory could still use several forms of influence (Legitimate 2, Reward 2, Expert 2, Referent 3, and Informational 2). That gives Mallory a usable position without guaranteeing the same response elsewhere. Melody now has the clearest chance to turn that relationship into protection or another game response.
06
Performance, Structure, and Chance
Lyric’s Safety Lock came from Devens’s veto use. Jason, Melody, and Rome still had equal Blockbuster access, while Devens remained safe as HOH. Angela’s punishment and the still-open Round 2 audience vote remained separate from in-house power. The Blockbuster result and vote were outside this boundary.
07
Best Move Right Now
Best Move Right Now: Ask Melody for one clear commitment before the next decision.
What Would Show It Worked: Melody follows through by changing a vote, nomination, protection, or information choice.
08
What the Rating Means
The clearest influence in Mallory’s Episode 7 score came from Referent Power. Mallory demonstrated it through relationships that produced trust or protection.

A Question Worth Following
Does Mallory’s fan standing match the influence RPM recorded through Episode 7? At the Episode 7 cutoff, Mallory ranks 5 in RPM and 3 in the Week 1 fan poll. Inside the house, Mallory continued protecting Melody and retained her earlier reciprocal deal with Devens. After Episode 7, After Episode 7, After Episode 7, Mallory’s in-house responses could help explain the match, while visibility, personality, or the television edit could also shape fan support.

What to Watch For Next
Does Mallory’s most important relationship produce a concrete response?
Why It Matters: The answer matters because Melody can turn the relationship into protection—or show where it stops.
