Coaches are Still in Charge
In the opening theme music for this episode, I noticed, that
when they showed the pictures of the house guests instead of having a black and
white picture of Willie they had a clip of him being kicked out of the house. I
thought that was great. Even though he is no longer in the house Willie gets a
lot of air time this episode, everybody is talking about him. Some of the house
guests try and explain what happened during the fight, with Ian saying that he
want to break them up but was in a towel and extremely scared.
Is it just me or is Janelle playing everyone really well?
She has been in the HoH room for almost the two first weeks but none of her
players have ever been HoH. She’s playing Boogie so well that he tells her his
plan. He wants to put up JoJo and one of his own team, so that Shane cannot
play in the veto competition, in order to backdoor Shane out of the house.
Frank doesn’t seem to ok with putting up someone from his team as a pawn.
This episode has the nominations, the veto competition and
the veto ceremony so they decided to move pretty quickly over the nominations.
Frank decided to nominate the easiest choices in Willie’s alliance of JoJo and
Shane. The fact that both Britney’s players get nominated makes her feel embarrassed
and disappointed in Willie for putting their team in this position. Britney
tells JoJo and Shane that they need to re-integrate themselves into the house
after what has transpired. JoJo is super pisssed and might pull a Willie
because no one hugged her or Shane after they were nominated. Not hugging
someone after they’ve been nominated in the Big Brother house is like walking
right by someone after they’ve said hello and tried to shake your hand.
The players for the Veto competition are Frank, JoJo, Shane,
Ian, Wil and Ashley. This looks like it will be an easy win for Shane, Frank,
or Ian. Frank also makes Joe the host fro the competition, which is awesome for
him because now he has an excuse to be extremely loud and obnoxious.
We take a break from the game to learn about Ashley’s ideal
man. While describing him she lists off everything that he is going to need to
like including, eating food and sleeping (I don’t think she said breathing but
I’m sure she wants someone who likes breathing). Ashley needs a man who
literally likes everything.
The competition for the Veto is a memory/chip dipping/fiesta
contest. All the competitors were dressed in nacho chip costumes. The goal of
the game was to find menu items in the kiddie pools filled with cheese, salsa
and guacamole. Then they have to take the menu items and recreate the master
menu, when their done they ring their bell. The contestant with the most items
correct in the least amount of time wins.
Ian thinks he has this game in the bag seeing as how he “practically
has a photographic memory.” The
competition is pretty close but Shane rings his bell first. Ian finishes second
and then JoJo, Frank, Wil. Ashley takes her time so that she can make sure she
has them all right. After she finishes Joe yells out the result. Everyone but
Ashley got all the menu items right, the one who finished fastest and the
winner of the Golden power of Veto ends up being Shane. He celebrates his win
by jumping into the pool of guacamole. Britney is so excited she jumps into the
pool with Shane. (Maybe a little too excited Britney?)
As soon as the competition is over Shane goes to see Boogie
and Frank in order to make a deal. Boogie and Frank see Shane as an asset so
they are very open to aligning with him. Boogie even says that “I’m presently
treating Shane like that wounded animal you find in the woods that’s got its
leg caught in a bear trap. You pick up that animal, you walk it back to your
cabin and you nurse it back to health. And then you know what you have? A very
loyal pet.” Shane leaves the Head of
Household room by thanking Boogie for the opportunity to talk with him. Shane
is not a leader in this game, if he was he could win the whole thing but
instead he is a follower and will be used by Boogie and Frank to further them
along in the game.
Danielle knows that she is going up after Shane won the
power of Veto. Dan tries to pull a coaching tactic where he tells her she’s on
her own and has to do it herself because he can’t help her. I’ve coached both
guys and girls before and I know for a fact most women do not do well with the abandoning
tactic. And most of the time men only get it when they are on a team because
when you “abandon them” (that’s such a harsh way to describe it but you
basically leave them to do it on their own) they have a group of people to help
support them. Needless to say when Dan decides to play this card with Danielle
she is completely alone and breaks down.
Side Note: I have a feeling that once a coach loses all
their players they will re enter the game. I don’t know if they will play for
another coach or if they will play without a coach. This is just a theory and
by no means is based in any truth.
Shane with a last minute play to Frank, after seeing Danielle
crying, to try and get him to put up Wil in his place instead of Danielle.
Frank tells Shane that he’ll think about it but Frank doesn’t want to step on
any ones toes except for the people who tried to get him out last week. He doesn’t
want to make more enemies. During Shane and Franks private discussion I swear
Frank was trying to impersonate Matthew McConaughey.
At the Veto ceremony Shane obviously takes himself off the
block which means Frank has to replace his nominee. Frank does not surprise
anyone by putting Danielle on the block, he keeps his speech short and doesn’t
really explain his decision only apologizing to Danielle.
Tomorrow either Danielle or JoJo are going home, eliminating
Dan or crippling Britney with only one player left in the game. After this week
it will start to get tough to stay under the radar with Boogie and Janelle’s
team realizing that the coaches with one player left could be their swing vote
when they go after the other team. Something is about to hit the fan and for
right now the coaches are still the ones throwing it.
