Austin decides to tell Jason about the twin twist. He makes it sound like a complaint about Liz not being around, and reveals that the other twin’s name is Julia. Austin also says he would be fine if Julia went home before the jury house. Of course Jason turns right around and tells Meg. The pair then tells Shelli and Vanessa, who pretend they didn’t know about the twins. But they’re shocked to hear that Austin was planning to turn on Julia.
2. Vanessa tests Austin
Vanessa decides to ask Austin about what happened with Jason. She wants to see if he will tell her the truth. But instead Austin is vague about the situation and says Jason was the one who brought it up. So Vanessa tells Austin she doesn’t want Jackie knowing that they’re working together. When he leaves the room, she reveals that she knows he’s lying and is ready to evict him.
3. Julia learns the truth
Vanessa promises Julia that she and Liz are going to be safe for the week even if they are put up. She asks Julia if Liz is really into Austin, and Julia says no.
