Lisa in bathroom. Eric outside the door, "what are you doing in there, babe?" Downcast response, "Nothing" Cut to Lisa in DR "I basically went to the bathroom because I wanted to breathe" [cut to shot from above of toilet & Lisa standing to the side, looking down.] Eric asks, "are you coming out?" "No" "what do you mean no? I’m going to open the door. If you’re on the can I’m going to see it." Lisa (teary laugh) "I’m not." Eric brings her out and they go off to talk. [shot of Marc & Gerry outside HOH room] Marc sympathizes with Gerry about the difficulty of doing noms and they hug. ------------------------------- Talking about Gerry ------------------------------- [cut to Chiara, Eric & Lisa in HRD talking about Gerry] Chiara sitting against headboard, Lisa lying across bottom of same bed & Eric on chair to the side. Chiara: "I hate him" Eric is upset about losing HOH competition, "I mean, why do you think I was so upset yesterday? I mean, all I had to do was get that #@*&! Questions right" [edited shot of end of comp] "I mean it’s pretty evident he’s not going much further in this game." [head shot of angry Chiara] "I want that guy to walk out with shame. Because for all his bull— antics in that POV speech [clip of Gerry’s speech with his hand on heart, choked-up voice, saying ‘my soul is not for sale’ cut back to Chiara] "He’s playing just as dirty as anyone." Eric: "Then he goes after two people for sleeping in the same bed." [cut to Lisa in DR] "I had a very strong feeling that Gerry was going to break up the couples. The reason he did not put up Josh is because he believes Josh is more disliked than he is" [cut back to Chiara talking about Josh not being chosen] "It sucks that it's about the game and not about someone who has been around for 3 weeks terrorizing him." Gerry, Marc & Josh in HOH Gerry (upset) pacing around, "God! That sucks!: Josh (standing, arms crossed): "It’s done." Marc (sitting) agrees, "It’s done." Josh tells Gerry he handled himself very well. Danielle, Chiara & Lisa at table on patio Lisa (shuffling cards) "I don’t know why I feel like this but I feel I’ll be here to see Gerry go." Danielle: "Yeah, it will be fine for us." [edit to Lisa in DR] feet on chair, resting arms on knees, wearing all black hair pulled back in ponytail. "I know I’m not going anywhere. I think that the girls are going to be around still to see some of the guys dwindle away." [edit to bathroom] Roddy & Eric (whispering very softly) Roddy: "You’re definitely safe" Eric: "I know" Roddy: "It’s not even a question." [edit to Eric in DR] "I really don’t think I’m going to lose against Lisa. I think I’ve got the guys’ vote and even if I get a tie vote – all I need are 3 votes. Gerry wants her gone. He’s not getting rid of me before her – that I’m pretty certain." ------- HOH ------- Gerry lying on messy bed, black socks on the floor, lots of rumpled bedding. He’s picking at the skin on his heels. Chiara comes in with a folded towel. As she turns to leave after putting it on the bed Jerry calls her back. She tells him she understands his noms [cut in edit of her in DR explaining that while she dislikes Gerry she plans on staying on his good side] She and Gerry briefly discuss the importance of the POV. Roddy & Danielle in hammock Both are sitting upright with feet on the ground, discussing Gerry. Roddy: "He’s not a bad guy at all..he’s a much better person than anyone has given him credit for." Danielle: "He has to be. I mean, he’s a teacher with handicapped children" Roddy: "He has two masters degrees." They discuss Gerry’s feet Danielle: "Except for those feet!" (Roddy moans) Danielle: "He has to do something about those feet!" (Roddy groans) [edit in shot of Gerry sitting at outside table clipping his toenails." Roddy "What can you do about feet?" Danielle (looks directly at Roddy): "He can soak them thangs in the hot tub, get a little brush, he can scrape at it, that’s all you have to do." Roddy: "Yep." They discuss POV Roddy: "Who will be put up?" Danielle: "Probably Jason" [cut to Roddy in DR, "I’m scared of the veto. Everyone is"] Josh & Gerry in HOH Josh: "You are truly a man of your word Gerry. As far as I’m concerned I’m with you as long as possible." They shake hands Lisa tells Roddy & Danielle Lisa in yard that she thinks the good hearted people should win. Roddy encourages her to talk to Gerry. Danielle seconds that suggestion. [cut to Lisa in DR, "Everyone knows that Gerry and Josh are the next two to go." She is prepared to make a pact with Gerry and asks him in a private talk in the HOH room why he would nominate her instead of Josh. She lists all of the mean things Josh has done. Gerry saw her attempts to save herself as a ploy and explained to Lisa that the game is about strategizing to survive as long as possible. Lisa & Eric in the hammock talking about making a deal with Gerry. Eric: "At this point I’m prepared to make a deal and next week his ass will still be hash." -------------------------- Funniest Scene Ever! -------------------------- Night cam. All in bed. Overdub of eerie music. Loud sound of crunching --- It is Danielle grinding her teeth! [diary room edits] Danielle: "When I’m under stress, I grind my teeth." Chiara: "OMG! The rock chewer?" (she laughs in disbelief) "It is literally the scariest thing you can ever hear in your life." Roddy: "I don’t know if it’s really cold on her side of the room but she’s chattering away. It sounds like she’s breaking rock candy with her teeth." Marc: "I’ve never broken a bone or anything but her teeth grinding are how I would assume broken bones grinding together would sound." Danielle: "The only way the teeth grinding is going to end is when they anounce that I have won the 500,000 dollars – simple as that." ------- POV ------ Turn Over Gain. Each hg stands on a veto symbol. They move one square at a time, taking turns. After stepping off a square they flip it over and it become ‘out of play’ and can’t be stepped on. When there are no more moves left a person is out. The last one standing wins POV. Before the POV competition Lisa and Eric talk about saving each other. [diary room edits] Lisa - wanted to win it in order to save Eric from a week of stress. Josh - wanted to secure Lisa’s exit from the house Chiara – "if Lisa gets saved then I might get put on the block" Danielle – wants POV so she can leave the noms alone. "I need to get Eric out of the game and keep Lisa in." Roddy – did not want the veto, "Because I care about Eric and Lisa so much and do not want to lower the hammer." Results of POV Roddy is first out Jason is 2nd Lisa is 3rd Marc is 4th Josh goes next Down to Danielle and Chiara Chiara wins. Gerry and Josh wanted Danielle to win. Chiara checks with Roddy about who to veto Chiara asks Roddy what to do. One idea – go to Gerry and ask him to put up Josh if she saves Lisa. She will protect Gerry for another week. Roddy is afraid that no matter what Gerry says he will put Roddy up as a replacement. Who will win America’s Choice? Scenes are shown of hg’s talking about what they miss. Shot of Gerry emotionally kissing pictures of his family. Danielle misses her girls. Everyone longs for different aspects of their home towns and people in their lives. The girls talk about how much they miss sex. Danielle hopes her husband is working out because she is going to have some serious needs when she gets out. More from Eric about Gerry He is chopping vegetables in the kitchen and telling Lisa that he plans to make Gerry miserable in the coming week. He goes to talk to Gerry in HOH room and tried to convince Gerry to get rid of Josh. Josh was listening outside the door and the two inside the room were speaking in audible tones. Josh is mad. He goes to Danielle and tells her that if Chiara uses the veto Gerry & Eric will convince her that Roddy won’t be put up and it will be one of the other players. Danielle is concerned. He wants Chiara to be convinced that if Eric is saved Roddy will be put up. Danielle is thinking about how to proceed. [cut to Eric telling Lisa that he took care of things and that the conversation with Gerry went ‘extremely well"] [cut to Josh in DR talking about Eric, "I think that him going into the HOH room has now cost him his stay in this house. Josh indicates he did not appreciate Eric trying to save himself or Lisa at Josh’s expense.’ [cut to Eric in DR saying he would love to see Josh on the block and "Totally flipping out." Eric and Lisa A few scenes of intimate moments, at night, together in bed whispering and preparing for the rest of the week. They talk about how much they appreciate each other. In DR Lisa is teary as she talks about their separation and how it is very unfair. In the DR Eric talks about how they are having a concentrated form of courting and that this is a great way to test a relationship and that he and Lisa are getting along extremely well. America’s Choice Announcer: "Which HG would you like to receive a letter from home." Names disappear from the screen in the following order: Lisa, Gerry, Marc, Josh, Eric, Roddy, Danielle, Chiara….JASON Jason gets a letter from his mom. He cries all through reading it. Edited in is a scene of his mother at a table writing the letter and overdubbed is her voice reading it: Hi Jason, it’s Mom, I just want you to know how proud I am of you and the way you are living your life in the house. Your Dad, Joshua, Cazra and I miss you so much and all we do when we are together is talk about you and Big Brother 3 [Josh broken up, really crying] All of Mobile is watching and supporting you. [Josh sobs "Thank you guys, thank you Mom"] We spent last week at the beach and it was a wonderful relaxing time. The only thing missing was you. Your dad is working hard in between BB3 updates and live feeds. You would be so proud of your brother. Joshua has become the family spokesman and he is actually enjoying it very much. Cazra got a k-5 teaching position. What a blessing she will be to those children . [Mom is crying] My love and prayers are with you as I say goodbye. [cut to Jason reading the last bit to the rest of the hg’s in the living room] Please give a greeting to all the house guests. They are your family now and I can tell you really enjoy and care about them all. May God bless and keep you until we are all together again. I love you. Mom Danielle sits next to Jason and rubs his arm comfortingly. Josh gets up and hugs him and tells Jason what a special person he is. [cut to the hg’s in DR talking about Jason] Chiara: "Aaaah, Jason" Marc: "he is such a nice guy" Josh: "God, if only I could make my bed that well" Roddy: "He is genuinely the nicest person I might have ever met in my life" [cut to Roddy telling Jason he is the only person he trusts 100% in the house] Eric: "I heard the kid say damn. Crap is the worst thing I ever heard that kid say in his life." Lisa: "I don’t see him stragetizing to win this game." Danielle: "People think Jason is this gullible kid [blows air through teeth] Jason playin awl dem fools" [cut to scene of Jason, Marc & Danielle in bedroom with door shut, at the end of a strategy session. Marc is under the covers, Danielle is sitting down & Jason is standing. Jason is whispering so softly the show uses subtitles, "Josh asked me, you know, he’s kinda trying to pry about you guys. I just told him, I said I don’t know what they are doing." Jason finishes, "But an hour ago I wasn’t lying." All laugh. Danielle: "Jason has a dark side to him. Jason’s dark side is ME." [cut back to the three in the room, Jason talking, "Do you think right now anybody knows about us, what we’re doing? Cause that’s the way we’re going to be strong. We have to appear like there’s problems between us. We might even have to stage a fight at some point" Danielle, "ooh! That’d be fun!"] Danielle: "if they think Jason is not playing the game they’re stupid!" [cut to Chiara: "Jason is not a threat to me at all – absolutely not a threat to me."] Danielle: "….and that will be their downfall." Roddy: "If Jason were scheming everybody then he deserves the Oscar for the next five years. Cut to scene of Jason & Danielle, alone, touching hands, Jason whispers "We are going to be the last two." Chiara & Gerry in kitchen. He is washing dishes as she dries. She asks who he would put up if she saves Lisa. Gerry stares at her hard and says, "Well, I have been asked to put up a certain person." POV Chiara asks Roddy "How are you going to be if Eric leaves?. He responds, "I’m not going to be one bit happy." They discuss the implications of Eric’s departure. Lisa could vote Roddy out, she is a threat. For Chiara her feelings about Lisa are personal. She finds Lisa annoying, she is not like Chiara’s other friends, who are ‘awesome’, Lisa whines [chiara imitates]. Roddy says that Eric would be protection for them. Chiara does not seem convinced that Eric would look out for her and Roddy disagrees and tries to reassure her. The Decision Chiara asks Lisa & Eric to give reasons why they should be saved. Lisa has no reason, she knows that Chiara loves them both. Eric also has no reason and, knowing what a tough position the POV holder is in, he would understand if Chiara does not exercise it. Chiara has decided not to use the POV and to leave the nominations standing as she loves them both and is only thinking about how someone else she cares about would be put up as a replacement. End of show. |
