Ocean Island's Live Feed Summary

August 31 2002

Roddy scrambling eggs and serving up refried hash. . . Danielle talks to the devil . . . Amy sees so much light she has to put on sunglasses . . . Jason keeps his shorts on. . . . Ass scratching . . . Amy takes on the powerhouse.

Here are some random revelations from Houseguests on Saturday:

Roddy says one of Josh's biggest regrets is that he didnt appreciate things and take advantage of them.

Lisa thinks its important to be unbelievably pretty even when you roll out of bed in the morning.

Roddy: "Do you realize Josh had his shirt off for a month? All I remember is his picking pimples for hours each day. I was scratching my ass one day and realized there are people all over the world seeing me."

Roddy became irritated with Amy because of her singing.

Danielle has had some exposure to the BB internet boards. She is aware that Monica's 'breakdown' last year was covered word for word.

Roddy's last relationship broke up because he didn't want to get married.

Jason says he always gains weight when in a relationship.

Roddy told Danielle she was magnificent.

Lisa starts saying she couldn't believe the one night Chiara started saying she had an affair with her father's . . . and FOTH.

Roddy claimed to be a christian. He said "The first time Jason said grace I almost fell down on the floor. Someone with genuine, old-fashioned faith that is not celebrated in this world. It was the only emergency DR I ever had. Sometimes the world sucks and to see someone like that gave me hope for the first time in a long long time." One report had him saying "I am not a bible literalist but I believe in Christian ethics."

Someone came up to Amy when she was in Margaritaville and told her that Gerry couldn't be trusted.

If you recall the moment Roddy started crying about his best friend who had died, and Chiara had no reaction to it, Roddy said that was one of the few moments when he wanted to get out of the house.

= = = = =

Roddy claimed to Amy that he was consistently honest in the diary room. However, a while back he told Chiara that he was not being totally honest in the diary room. Which reality is it?

Early in the morning, before going to bed (about 6 am) Roddy talks to Danielle. They seem to be honest and open, but Roddy is doing all the talking. The gist of the conversation is that Roddy feels things are unfair and that Danielle said she trusted Roddy when she didn't. Danielle admits she has been afraid of him. Roddy insists again and again that he trusts Danielle. The implication is that she should trust him. This appears to be the only card he is working.

During the day, Amy won POV. Lisa, Danielle and Jason discuss voting her out. They think she may use the POV on Roddy. Jason feels they can work her and maybe get her to promise not to use it.

Curiously, Danielle claims to Lisa that Roddy wouldn't talk to her last night. She adds, by the way, that Lucifer was the most beautiful angel in heaven. For those not in the know, Lucifer fell from heaven and became the Devil. That's why Danielle calls Roddy the devil.

Amy claims to Danielle and Lisa that she is not going to use the POV. She states about how she told Roddy she would take him off the block, but couldn't get the same promise -- or any promise -- in return. Amy: "I have never been played so hard in my life. He went through every weakness that I ever had. He played me like a violin. He’s not as smart as he is, or he wouldn’t of worked me so hard. I am astounded by the things that he said. So, when he asks me what I am going to do, I am going to just say that I will have to get back to you. I’m gonna let him kiss my ass for the next two days and let him think what ever he wants." Lisa responds. "Welcome to the game, Amy."

Later, Amy gets into it. She wants to toy with him. She spent a considerable amount of time practicing responses, and fake facial expressions. And yet, there's a tear, here or there . . . boy, she sure grew up fast.

Jason talks with her and Amy asks him if he has ever 'been played like a violin'. He says he has but doesn't want to talk about it. Amy says she is so happy she found out about the truth, but she doesn't tell him what it is. He tells her she seems empowered. She's apologized to Chiara in the DR, and decides to use her knowledge to help people.

There's been a lot of talk about a massage, but it's not clear if that is the luxury challenge this week or something else. Jason is aware of WillMega from BB1's hostile massage of Eddy. Jason will leave his boxers on. Lisa tells him he doesn't want to ask for an Asian massage, which involves a sexual component. Then a strange coffin-like blue box appears on the basketball court -- it's a water massage machine where the person inside doesn't actually get wet, a kind of aqua massage apparatus. Both Amy and Jason apparently have won a massage in connection with the POV competition.

The whole massage thing gave everybody a break from strategizing all the time. They laughed and made jokes, and read the manual. Amy and Jason had their massages. Amy laughed; it tickled. Jason liked it. The machine went 'swish, swish'. This put Roddy to sleep.

Then Amy finally got down to Roddy. She told him she was not going to use the veto because if she does she'll be out. Roddy is frustrated. Roddy is playing the card that if she takes him off the block, it'll be a personal gain for her and for her honesty; after all, she doesn't care about the game anyway, so why wouldn't she do it for that reason?

Roddy gets angry and tells her she is making it easy on Marcellus. Roddy says he would hate to see Marcellus get what he wants. "He's the new Josh." She questions him on his inability to promise her anything in exchange for her taking him off the block. He says he's not sure where he stands and that is why he can't do that. He's angry and working her hard, trying to get her to use the POV on him. He asks her to be nice in her speech if she does choose not to use the power. He says how disappointed with how things have gone in the house. He again brings up the fact that his grandpa is watching. Then when their conversation was over at 2 am, Roddy started working out a lot.

Then Roddy get a chance to talk with Lisa. He seems more accepting of the fact that he is going to be going on Thursday. "I've been trashing things in my life, over and over. Even if I go on Thursday, I've really been lucky, really been blessed. That's whats strange, it looks like things are bad, but I really don't recall ever feeling bad here." Maybe, on second thought, he says a few times with Chiara.

He says he has been lucky, had a great experience. He talks about himself, about how he sees the richness of life and the world sometimes, he tries not to miss a minute of it. He's not unhappy. He tells Lisa he referred to her as a thoroughbred when he first met her.

Lisa: "I've got to stop 'giving away the goods.' But if I did stop, it just wouldn't be me. When I am interested romantically, I give a lot of expressions of my self. If it is too much then, I might stop myself from expressing that, but it just wouldn't be me. My expressions are free, not dependant on -- whatever." Roddy: "Whoever he's going to be, he's going to be the luckiest guy in the history of the planet."

He adds, "I keep everything inside. It has been very difficult for me . . . probably I said some stupid things, said things I wish I hadn't said. . . . I'm so glad I kept things inside (for the most part) because if I had been more verbal I would likely have said more things I regret. One of the reasons Josh liked me so much is because I would tell him about the small things I notice and I would point them out to him. Little things that meant so much to me, like you know how when you walk on a beach at night and it feels alive and new -- the amazing clouds -- and similar amazing things in life that are small like that; that is how I feel here. " These are a writer's sentiments ... the writer's way of looking at the world, to notice the details and point them out to others.

Lisa laughs. "I've been depressed all day because of you. Yesterday you asked me what is the most romantic thing a guy has done for me. I've been thinking about it all day. I've been thinking about it every hour." Didn't she say that the dinner with Eric had been the most romantic thing that had ever happened to her? Did she forget about it? Did she forget Eric?

It ain't over till it's over. . . .

And that was Saturday August 31 at Big Brother House!
