Lisa | Monday, August 14, 2000 - 08:07 pm  August 14 - Day 41 Day 39 is shown, with George telling BB in the Red Room that, since Karen' temper tantrum regarding the nominations, his thoughts have changed about her. He said he finds he is more reserved around her now, more guarded about what he will tell her, and believes that she does not deal with stress well. Later, Brittany dyed George's hair blonde. That was only the first step; the second step was dying it blue. When asked if he liked George's new look, Eddie replied that it brings out the color of George's eyes. George repeated over and over, "I kind of like it"... George and Eddie shared their regular night-time chat, with George telling Eddie he doesn't believe he'll get a job in construction once these days are over. Eddie agreed, calling George a blue-haired freak/roofer. Day 40 - Jamie dyed Brit's hair green, while George and Josh (with a new nickname "Sloshy") finished making the home-made wine. Sloshy tested the wine, and told George it was very good. George tested it and didn't think so. The group was given their next weekly challenge (#6). It was called the Interstate Road Trip, and the house guests were provided with a map of the U.S. and told that they must memorize all the interstate routes between major cities. On Friday at noon, they will be asked to name the highways between certain major cities. Karen told the group that this challenge will be easy for her, however, she won't be in the house on Friday, so it's not up to her. No one replied to Karen's comment. After some discussion, the group agreed to wager 20% of their grocery money. That evening, Brit gave both Curtis and Josh hair highlights. Later, Cassandra and Curtis talked privately out at the pool. Cass told Curtis that she's not too upset about being nominated, that she does think about it, however, is not stressed about it. She also said that she believes she will be the one to leave the house on Wednesday, due to the generation gap between her and the young ones in the house. She believes that the public will consider her expendable because she has no niche in the house, is not loveable like Karen and Josh, and could be seen as quite cold due to her lack of interaction with the other house guests. After quite a bit of drinking the home-made wine, Josh and Karen discuss the differences in being 23 years old (Josh) and 43 years old (Karen). Karen told him that at 43, she really knows that what is right and wrong is not the only answer, and that life is short, therefore, she has begun to justify things and has become selfish. After asking Josh if she could be blatantly honest with him, she told him that it was his inconsistency with the Brit/Jordan scene that bothered her about him. Jamie interrupted the two's discussion with hugs and kisses goodnight. When she left, Josh confessed to Karen that he has never met anyone in his entire life as much like him as Jamie is. Every day he tries to hide his feelings and pushes it away. He wishes that it was only Jamie he had shown interest in from the beginning. He said that he told everyone he looks at Jamie as a sister to take away any attention from her, however, feels that he belongs with Jamie. At bedtime, Karen used the toilet leaving the door open for Brit and Cass to watch her. Both laughed and closed the door, reminding Karen about the Internet cameras. Karen continued to push the door open over and over again. She then came out, dropped her pants to her ankles and mooned America. Brit walked away laughing, and told Cass Karen is now her responsibility. Day 41 - Cass and Eddie talked about the nominations, and Eddie said that everyone always thinks he nominated them. Cass said she doesn't think they will make it through the next 6 weeks the way they've been going, and thinks everyone will self-destruct. Eddie said Jamie told him he should not have nominated her, and that you should only nominate the people that would nominate you. The group later discusses careers and Brittany told everyone that she has really proven herself at work, however, if she were to show up with pink hair, she'd be fired. George said he has hired many people with tattoos, piercings and even jailbirds. All people need to be given a chance. The show ends with the group eating dinner in fast forward mode, with Chiquita begging for food. |
