Previously, Kaysar’s out. Janie’s HOH again. A new secret power is revealed. Janie nominates Dani & Erika. LOD saves Dani in the veto competition which makes Janie and Howie suspicious of James. Chilltown convinces Janie to put Marcy up!
Present Day BB
Chenbot welcomes us to the show and promises us a couple surprises tonight.
But first...Chenbot wonders if Chilltown has been calling the shots while Janie has been HOH.
Erika, in the DR, say she was SHOCKED that Janie put Marcy up on the block. Then she was relieved because she felt safer against Marcy. Then, you guessed it, she started crying.
Marcy in the DR explains that Janie told him she put him up but he is safe from eviction. Then Marcy, being the completely level-headed and totally un-dramatic person that he is says, “The pages of BB history are LITTERED with the CORPSES of people who thought that they were safe.” Because Marcy knows...once the Chenterview is over, she takes a knife to their jugular...or, you know, they go on The Early Show. Same difference.
Erika, Dani and Marcy, in partial uniform, are in the Red Room. Marcy assures Erika he will not campaign against her. She gets up and leaves the room and without one moment’s hesitation, Marcy leans over to Dani and whispers that he still needs her to vote for him and promises that if he stays All. Hell. Will break. Loose. “Hell, Yes!” Hell, yes it will Marcy, because if you stay in that house any longer I will walk to LA and drag you out of that house by that stupid little sleep mask that is affixed to your head. Seriously, Live Feeders, did Will play a prank on Marcy and put super glue on that thing? Does it ever come off his head? It’s not a hat...or even an accessory! You would think Marcy would know that!
Dani in the DR feels stuck. She promised Marcy she would let him know if she ever had to vote him out but she has a friendship with Erika. Sadness ensues.
LOD in the Back Yard. Will initiates the “Get Marcy Out” talk with the group. Mike backs him up and this may be the one and only time I will co-sign ANYTHING that comes out of Mike’s mouth. Mike says in the DR that they got Janie to put Marcy up by promising that he is the pawn but Mike has never trusted Marcy. CT wants Marcy out. James says the best case scenario would be for Erika to get HOH next, take Janie out, then the LOD can take Erika out the following week. No, James, best case scenario would be in the LOD, minus Will, ask BB for their DORs now!
In the DR, Will likens CT to the Beatles with Will being the Paul and Mike being the John. That makes Erika the Yoko and Yoko is ruining the band and needs to leave.
The LOD discuss that if they take Marcy out this week against Janie’s wishes, there is no turning back and it is on. Or maybe it’s AWWWWNNNN. No, I think it is just Oooonnnnnn. Will tells the other LODers that he is glad he is on the good side of the LOD because the other 3 are MEAN!
In the Red Room, Erika guilts Chicken George with a good old “I am relying on you, Georgie.” George says he knows and reassures Erika that he has her covered. Whatever that means. Chicken George covering you doesn’t sound like the safest position in the house.
Marcy, in uniform, then corners CG in the bathroom – in a totally non-campaigning manner – and reminds CG of all the ways that Erika has screwed George over in the past. You know, it occurs to me that this would be a fabulous strategy if Marcy was campaigning...but he is not. He’s just having a conversation. With a man who dresses like a chicken. In a bathroom. Not. Cam. Paign. Ing.
Marcy and Janie in the Red Room. What is that you ask? Is Marcy in uniform? Why...Yes. Yes he is. I hadn’t noticed. Thanks for asking! Poor, poor Janie still believes that Marcy is safe with all her heart and tries to reassure him. She tells him CT PROMISED they would vote against Erika. And you know CT. Their promises are worth their weight in, well, CT promises. Marcy goes directly out, still in uniform, to the Back Yard to confront CT about their promise to Janie to keep him. They half-assedly reassure Marcy that he is safe. Once he is out of earshot, Mike says “Sucker!”
The Chenbot’s back!!! She wants to talk to the House Guests. Why, Chenbot, why??? House Guests are all in prom attire and...it is a hot mess. I am going to be honest. Howie is sporting a Porn-stache and hair that is rivaled in size only by Will’s. Dani’s in a pink satiny number. Marcy is in a 70's inspired brown tux with his Afro wig. Mike looks like Mike. Will looks relatively decent but his hair gets bigger every second they are in that house. Janies looks pretty much like Janie in a red gown. James has, for some reason, slicked his hair down all “Revenge of the Nerds-esque”. Was Erika there? I missed her. Let’s not even talk about George. It’s one of his normal “Look at me, I am so wacky and outrageous” outfits that is neither wacky nor outrageous. More just sad.
Hey look at that! The Chenbot must have gotten her personality upgrade installed! SWEET! First, she shoots Howie down when he asks her to prom. Then, she mocks Howie’s fake “Spool of Lies” Coup guess. Finally, she totally calls Mike out for screaming like a little bitch and knocking Janie and Erika out of the way when the big scary “ghosts” were in the mirror. Chenbot even shows them a still frame of the action. Heh. Mike is such a turd. Heh. I just said turd.
Commercial
It’s Live Show Boring Filler time! This time, starring Dani’s and Janie’s moms to discuss the huge rivalry between the two. Here’s the gist of the filler. Janie’s mom says Janie has always gotten attention from boys and has been selective with girlfriends. She thinks Dani is onto Janie being smarter than she is letting on. The two are very similar and should have teamed up. They would have ruled the house.
Dani’s mom uses lots of describing words : Go-getter, spunky, tomboy, pistol, analytical, a leader, can adapt, a fighter – just to name a few. She says once Dani thinks she has gotten Janie, Janie wins veto. Then Janie thinks she has gotten Dani, Dani wins veto. Says it’s a war and she wants to see who will win.
Commercial
Chenbot interviews Janie in the HOH Room. Chenbot asks what Janie thinks about James since she was questioning his loyalties after the veto. Janie wants to believe in James, but he has been acting very shady and keeps saving Dani.
Chenbot wants to know how Janie’s relationship with Marcy is. Janie says they are trying to mend their friendship and that it was rocky last week when Kaysar left, but it is much better this week. How very peculiar...the week that Janie’s alliance was not in power, Marcy is a bitch to her. The week Janie is back in power, all of a sudden Marcy likes her again. I must say, if Marcy ever played the least bit shady, I would think that all that was not just a coincidence! Good thing Marcy’s integrity covers ALL levels. All of them.
Chenbot would like to know if the secret final 2 alliance, that Marcy and Janie had in the beginning, is still valid. Janie doesn’t feel like she can trust Marcy anymore and she would like to go to the end with an S6er. James was so very dead on about her!
Before the 3rd Coup d’Etat clue is revealed, there is a rehash of the first two clues – The sheep and the Spool of Lies – and the guesses this far.
The 3rd clue of a Grim Reaper is revealed. Take ‘em! Take ‘em all!! Mike is shown in the DR guessing “You reap what you sow.” Damn. That’s it. And a clip is shown of Mike, later, being called into the DR and being told that he has won the Super Secret Power. Chenbot explains
The power can be used once in the next 3 evictions. He can overthrow the HOHs nominations right before the live vote and put up any two houseguests (sans HOH and veto winner). The other house guests must vote immediately. If there is a tie, he breaks it. He cannot tell anyone what the power is and no one else will know what the power is or who has it until it is used. Mike tells BB, for the first time, he is speechless. Well, Thank You, BB! However, it doesn’t last long.
Commercial
Before the live vote “The Winner” (aka...Mike) is given the opportunity to use the power they have won. “The Winner” declines to use the power this time. Ughhhh. Mike as “The Winner” does not ring any bells for me. The voting will go on as normal. Nominees are given a chance to give a speech. Erika’s speech is basically “Keep me and use me in your strategy. I will do whatever you want. I would like to stay.”
Marcy – Holy Bittercakes, Batman. Here we go... (bolding is mine)
“Um, no big speeches. (Riiiiiigghhhht. Here goes the little speech) We each get to choose how we play this game. If you want the game to be about lies and scumbagging (scumbagging? Sounds dirty) each other and you can live with that when it’s over, that’s great. I’ve tried to be honest. (Really?) I’ve tried to be friends with everybody (ummm, really?) and I hope that you guys know that’s what I wanted. So if you can lie to me in my face, (like actually INSIDE your face, Marcy?) and send me out under these circumstances, that’s all I can do. I want to stay. All I can say is please”
Okkkkkk.....Vote Time! Mike goes. Then Howie, James (who looks really sad for some reason), Will, George, then Dani. Marcy is voted out 6-0. And this is how Marcy CHOOSES to play the game. He stands up, claps his hand together, gives Erika a quick hug, walks towards the door, gives Dani a quick hug, totally blows past Howie who is waiting to give him a hug and says “Thanks, guys” and pouts out the door. Goodbye!
In the quick clip of the Chenbot first meeting Marcy after the boot, the Chenbot’s personality chip takes over again as she asks him if he wore the Afro wig for protection so she wouldn’t hit him again. Chenbot got funny!
Dani & Erika stand in a long, embrace of sadness. Marcy has DIED and now the pages of BB history will be littered with his corpse...AGAIN! There are hugs all around. Dani goes to the Bug Room where James is waiting to comfort her and they begin their own embrace of sadness. Why does this scene seem very similar to James and Ivette last year. What is his deal with the overly emotional women?
Marcy’s Chenterview
Chenbot asks Marcy what he thinks of Janie now, since they had a deal that he was safe. Marcy says she lies as much as she breathes and that he knew she would scumbag him. Why is this a verb now? He says that’s how she has played this whole time. The Chenbot then calls him out on some of the more bitter, dramatic things he has said about Janie. In true Marcy form, when Chenbot does not get one of his sound bites exactly right, he actually interrupts her and finishes it for her. 2 words, Marcy...”Class-say”
He then says that, of course, he thinks the things he said were extreme. I mean, come on. He has been out of the house for nearly 2 minutes. He’s gained clarity. Woah! BS alert ... Marcy claims that he really tried to play this time without talking as much trash. Wow, he was really trying, huh. He thinks that was his downfall. That he just didn’t talk ENOUGH. Uh, excuse me here. Can I get a ruling? Which show exactly have I been watching all season? He says that you say things you don’t mean. Ahh, the clarity of being 20 feet from the door of the BB house. Marcy then admits he would NOT have put Janie up if he was HOH.
Marcy’s goodbye videos go a little something like this:
George asks for the slop pass. Heh. James, for whatever reason, is trying to play it off like he is still just a S6er and that if Marcy is watching this, it must mean CT is coming after them! Good acting, James! Janie seems pretty sincere about thinking Marcy was only a pawn and she feels really bad. She admits she made a stupid mistake. She hopes he can forgive her. I hope he feels like an ass. Will tries to suck up to him and tell him he was a threat cause he was so charismatic. I can only assume this is meant for jury purposes. Dani cries and cries and cries and tells Marcy he is a friend.
Marcy tells Chenbot that he has HATED Dani since BB3 was over four years ago and he came into the house wanting revenge. And in the after-school special moment of the year, Marcy says that he came out with something better...he let go of the hurt. *tears* Then he bitches about going to sequester. And, he’s back!
HOH Competition
Before the comp, Chenbot announces that Janie has won Prom Queen. This was supposed to give her an advantage in the comp, but since she can’t compete, I guess we will never know what that advantage would have been. I choose to believe it would have been the power to fly.
For the competition, house guests have to guess how America voted in the BB Prom Superlatives online. If they guess correctly, they take a step forward. If they guess incorrectly, they stay in their spot. They will be given the voting category and two names of house guests. They will guess who they think won by raising their right or left hand. Let me just say, I would be out at this point because I am horrible at right and left. I really need to do the “L” shape with my pointer finger and thumb before I can remember which is which.
