Memphis is going to find out about the beach trip one way or another. Dan doesn't stand to gain anything by giving Memphis time to think about it. You saw how shocked Keesha was when she found out. Dan's best bet is probably to keep his mouth shut and let Memphis find out DURING the jury questioning rather than beforehand. It's not like if he tells him beforehand Memphis is going to go "Oh, ok well thanks for telling me. I wont hold it against you." The more notice Dan gives Memphis, the more time Memphis has to figure out how to use the trip against him.

And Dan can always tell Memphis afterwards that BB didn't allow him to say anything about it. Memphis believes everything else Dan says, so he'd believe that.

Dan wont have any reason to lie to Memphis about it. Plus Memphis might be annoyed by it but he knows he would've done the same thing if he had won the lux comp (taken a jury member and not tell anyone in the house).

I don't know. I don't see how Memphis can use it against him. The jury already knows about the trip and they're all strong-willed people who have already decided how they feel about it. I can't imagine what Memphis could say about it - even if he has days to consider it - that would change their minds. Most of them probably think Dan's a plant and a little shit and are angry with him for taking Michelle and not them anyway. But I'm still glad he played big and took a juror instead of pussin' out.

Even just saying something like "I know I didn't have the chance to work you guys over with a private trip to the beach but..." would pack a big punch if Memphis opened with that in his speech to the jury. If Memphis finds out during the jury questioning he wont have time to really process it and think about the magnitude of the prize and how it could affect not only how Michelle sees Dan but how the other jurors who weren't chosen might.

Seriously, I dont think giving Memphis advanced notice could benefit Dan so why would he bother? You said it wont matter anyway but it might if Memphis figures out ANY way to use it. Dan stands to gain nothing at all by telling Memphis and I don't think Memphis will be any more or less mad/upset/irritated by the news if he learned it during jury questioning vs. learning about it beforehand. The only reason Dan told Keesha beforehand is because he wanted to make sure she heard it from him before she heard it from the jury so that he wouldn't risk losing her vote if she felt like he lied to her.
