Well, it sounds like he's ready to play without Daniele. How much of this is anger after their discussion or the real deal, I don't know.

Jen said if she gets HOH she will put Dani up again....ED said she should do what she has to do....the umbilical cord is cut.


Does Dick mean it or is he playing Jen?

I call her acting like a brat because I was her 20 years ago. I was whiny, selfish, and pouted until I got what I wanted.

Her biggest complaint against Dick are some hurtful words he said that she will never, ever forget. Has she said what those words are? Maybe he called her a whiny, selfish brat. I know I was called that. The words hurt because I really didn't think I was a brat. One day I finally understood the world didn't revolve around me. Maybe Dani is figuring that out too.

Exactly Njbbwtchr - it is unfair to call Dani a brat because sometimes she is sleeping and she is not bratty then.

Just because he was somewhat around doesn't mean he was a mature, selfless, loving, father.

Maturity is a word that is much overused when trying to win a debate. There are many even here on this forum who profess to be mature, but sometimes they don't act that way. We all fall into that catagory even as adults. I have flown off the handle many times as an adult and behaved immature, and anyone who says they haven't are in denial or flat out lying.

So far in all their talks I have seen no indication of her being abused or ignored by her father. What I have heard is "I'm frustrated, because you don't know what I want." "you got mad at me because I bought you Spice Girl tickets that you wanted and I sent you with Janine (I'm assuming, wife #2) so you guys could bond." "we were good friends and then you got mad at me for calling you back too many times." "after not speaking to me for months because I didn't return your phone call soon enough you call and want something from me (video games) and when I refuse you decide you aren't going to speak to me again." "I email and write to you and the only contact you make with me is a very nasty letter that cut me to the bone." "I love you Danielle, but I don't know what you want from me." Her only response to this is "the only one in my life I consider family is my grandmother." Who by the way she doesn't speak to either.

This sounds to me more liked a very spoiled young lady who has used her father not being a perfect, mature parent as a scapegoat for everything that ails her. It's a convienent excuse and using guilt to get what you want is what little kids do.
Until she accepts the fact that much of what happens to her in life is based on the decisions SHE makes and not on what her daddy didn't do for her, she will never mature.

Cricket, I agree. I don't think Dick having these conversations with Daniele specifically for the game- I believe it's personal and from the heart, but he certainly uses them and his relationship in general with Daniele as an advantage in the came. The same can be said about Daniele too, but not to the same extent as Dick.

It's because some people who like Dick can't seem to allow that he could be at fault. He's perfect, so it must be Daniele who is the 'bad' one.

Jen ... I've read your postings from last night to the present. Nobody has said that Dick is "perfect." From the other side, you've thrown stones at Dick and championed Daniele to the extreme.

Care to say why you can't admit that they both share some blame?

Is anyone awake in the house. I'm at work and was hoping for a fun light hearted read for lunch.

I'm so over the D and D debate. I think we are just repeating how the guests behave in the house. Both sides not listening to the other and only trying to find quotes etc to prove their point.

It's funny how we always seem to mirror behaviour that is going on in the house.

I'm completely with you there, Chere. What else would he have to talk about if not these conversations that a mature parent would keep to themselves. How is she ever to trust him with her confidences otherwise?

If those who think they shouldn't be doing this on bb, what makes them think that Dr. Phil is a better forum, it's still TV.

I don't know who suggested that about Dr. Phil, and I think they were joking around... but Dr. Phil would be a better forum. It has a completely different purpose and agenda than BB, BB, which is purely at core, a game show. And both shows put family drama on TV for entertainment value and ratings, no doubt. But Dr. Phil has a more acceptible agenda for doing it, imo... plus it is voluntary for the family. This was a sick joke BB pulled, to put two people, estranged from one another, on a show together, unbeknownst to them.

I have a question about this

Then Nick came out and got Dani and hugged her. I think they asked him to go get her instead of waking everyone up to get her, too. I suspect we'll have a big ED show tonight.

When he got her up, was she in her bed or his? The last they showed on the feeds last night it looked like they were going to sleep in his bed. Just wondering.

Vincent said she doesn't talk to anyone in the family including her grandmother. I'm partial to thinking that has something to do with the grandmother and Dick trying to work out their diffences and Dani isn't the center of grandma's world..but that's just my opinion.

Dfng, I would hope that Alison G. is not getting positive feedback on this brainiac idea of hers re father/daughter conflict in the house. I also hope people are asking Showtime for their money back, lol. Julie is promising something completely different than what people are seeing on Showtime.

I thought he said she didn't speak to the Step-Grandfather, the one the Grandmother is married to now.

Cricket, I don't know what you are talking about. I love the Showtime experience. What has Julie promised? She can't predict what is going to be said or shown during those hours. Is it because some who may not have the feeds get to see for themselves what is happening instead of going by the postings of others whose judgement might not be honest on the whole based on their personal feelings.

I took from this that she does talk to the Grandmother. If Dick was living with the Grandmother, I could see where she might not come around that often.

I notice Daniele says she's close to her grandparents... are you as well Vac?

Grandparent*... she doesnt talk to my grandpa anymore either ;)

Paternal, although my grandpa isnt my dads real dad. Long story short, My dad never knew his real dad, his mom married someone and that man adopted my dad as his own, they divorced, and my grandma later married the man I know as my grandpa

As much as I love BB, I really hope the ratings aren't improved as a result of the Dick/Daniele storyline. If this twist turns out to be a ratings success I have a feeling that we'll never see BB in the format of 12-14 strangers again.
