“Big Brother”: Cleaning Up

by Marilyn Porter

Big Brother Beer PongLet me get you lined up with the “usual suspects” for you BB8 recap goodness.  These are the sources, you know!

Okay, first off, I have to LAUGH MY BUTT off at Nick’s “letter” to Daniele. Especially once it was revealed that yes, he in fact did craft it entirely himself. It looked like a scrapbook page doped up on pepto bismol. Eric found it funny for the same reasons I did. Zack noted with interest the lack of any photos of Daniele’s boyfriend this time. Dick groaned over a photo of him, Daniele and her brother and they all had bad hair in it. All in all? Yet another boring HoH room.

So Jessica tries to cover her butt with Jameka and so does Eric though Jessica is a lot more successful at it than he is. And ya’ll? Daniele is IN THIS this week. Her head is 100% in the game and she has her eyes on the prize. Jameka, in other news, marvels over Amber’s utter lack of vocabulary. I? Am not surprised. That’s pretty freakin’ sad. Eric has a talk with her (making sure not to use any big words, I’m sure) about strategy, supposedly in an effort to soothe her ruffled feathers. Amber, regardless of what she told him, wasn’t convinced. Wow, so she is smart after all!

And now we get to see them playing Beer Pong. I’ve been hearing a lot about this on the live feeds. A very popular game among the houseguests. Eric and Jessica lost a wager where they had to wear each others clothes. And Eric? Did it GOOD. He pulled it off. I’m just impressed that it fit.

Jameka and Amber start to wonder if there isn’t a secret alliance between Dick and Daniele and Eric and Jessica. Gee, ya think? This was after Dick pretty much laid it all out on the line about how he was saved. Well, all but the secret alliance, of course.

The food competition involved Togas which everyone rocked pretty supremely. And Zach? You did not look the best. I did like Daniele’s laurel wreath. Oh, and they had to play oversized beer pong. RIIIIGHT. And Jessica? Toga parties and beer pong are an everyday thing for you? You realize that your parents are paying for you to get an education, right? YIKES. And why am I not surprised that Dick was good at beer pong? Ultimately, Eric won it for the red team (otherwise known as the beer pong devotees) so they got food for the week. They both got the “Feast” though, so they’ll get one really bitchin’ meal. Oh and the table shrunk. Yeah, that usually happens about now. It just reminds Daniele how close she has to be these diseased peasants and how much she hates that. LOL!

In “light and fluffy” news, more flirting is going on between Jessica and Eric. Dick calls them on it and Jessica tries to play it off. Eric seems a little delighted and teases her after which she says she “hates him”. And obviously doesn’t mean a single word of it. Nice try there! And America has deemed that Eric should get Amber nominated for eviction. YAY! Way to go, America. Way to work WITH him for a freakin’ change. He gets right to work, planting the seeds for an Amber nomination. He’s a little “brutal” with his suggestion. Daniele claims not to trust him one bit, she’ll think about it. This week? We decide who he should give a ratty old childhood “woobie” to. I totally think he should give it to DICK. LOL! How hilarious would that be? Not to mention awkward, but hey, you asked.

And now? The nominations! Daniele lets it be known in her diary room confession that she doesn’t want certain members to just skate their way to the finish. So it is with little surprise that Amber and Jameka are nominated. Because they are, in fact, pretty much dead weight. Of course, it could be argued that Zach and Jen are also dead weight, but at least they are easily told who to vote for. And let’s prepare for the water works. It’s going to be an Amber-tastic week, ya’ll! *snort* In other news, Amber believes she’s had a vision that she will win the power of veto and she and Jameka will be in the finale two. And Daniele reveals her true target is in fact Jen. HMM! Interesting!
