NOMINATION NIGHT


Big Brother Episode #9 * July 27, 2002



------------------------------------------
Previously on Big Brother 3
------------------------------------------

As the show opens we hear the announcer say: PREVIOUSLY ON BIG BROTHER....Danielle won the veto competition and chose not exercise that right and instead chose to leave the nominations as they are. That left Josh feeling vulnerable. They then showed a clip of Josh telling Danielle that everyone was telling him that this was his last chance. Tonya also thought she was safe, after being told that she was merely a pawn, a confrontation left some HGs reconsidering their votes. They then showed a clip of the confrontation between Amy and Marcellas and Tonya, where Tonya stated to Amy, "I'm not one to screw with!" Half of the houseguests had to eat peanut butter and jelly for the week, and that left some of the HGs with frayed nerves. They then showed clips of the PBJ HGs saying that they felt weak and that they are very sick of sandwiches. Amy who had not had to eat PBJ purposely made dinners that were very aromatic and would smell up the entire house. They then showed the live eviction where Tonya was voted out by a vote of 5 to 3, and all of the HGs walked her to the door and said goodbye. Next came clips of the HOH competition in which Roddy came out the victor! He left no one in the house feeling safe. Who will he nominate next on BB3.


-------------------------------------------------------
The Loss of Tonya Hits Hard
------------------------------------------------------

After the BB theme song, they re-showed the clip of the eviction and then Chiara in the DR saying that she is really upset because Tonya is the one she spent the most time with in the house. Next it was Josh in the DR saying that he was shocked because he thought that the women would stick together. Then it was Amy in the DR saying that she was "tickled pink" that Tonya was evicted and that she didn't even hug her goodbye. Lastly it was Marcellas saying that Tonya had made a few mistakes that had truly shown who she was.

The aftermath of the eviction was an emotional one for Josh, who they showed walking into the washroom looking very shocked and a little relieved. Also for Chiara whom they showed hanging her head and then laying in her bed sobbing, with a voice-over of her stating that Tonya was her favorite person in the house and the only one she could be herself with and now it was "gonna get a little lonely." Josh suspects that Lisa voted for him and Lisa states that she did in fact vote for him. He says that he knew from the start that he could not trust her and he doesn't think that his condition has improved any more that it was last week. They showed the HGs milling around after the eviction and Josh picking up his suitcase and he and Amy taking it back to his room, with a voice-over of Amy saying that she is glad that Josh has gotten to stay in the house and that she has been one of his biggest supporters. Josh then hugged Amy and said thank you for helping to keep him in the house. He proceeded to the LR where he also thanked Jason and told him that he had his back and that the lack of his vote would have really hurt him. Next, he proceeded to the yard where he sat beside Chiara and told her that he was happy but it was bittersweet because Tonya had to go. They then show Chiara in the DR saying Josh can say anything he wants about being sad but she doesn't believe him and she thinks he back-stabbed her. Their conversation in the yard continues with Josh saying that he wished that Lisa wouldn't have voted against him. Chiara said that Lisa thought that her vote was her vote and she had to use it the way that she saw fit. Then Josh and Chiara hugged.

Marcellas was in the DR saying that he and Josh have made some kind of peace, but that he doesn't trust him as far as he can throw him and that Josh really wanted to stay in the house and "sometimes sheer will can move mountains." Switch to Chiara and Danielle in the BR talking. Chiara wanted to know why Dani had voted for Tonya, Dani said that she did it because she didn't respect Tonya as a mother and the last straw was the confrontation with Amy and Marcellas. She didn't like the way she had said not to mess with her. They then re-showed the clip of the confrontation, Chiara said that she was most upset because Tonya shouldn't have been up for nomination in the first place. Dani in the DR " I figure 2 down and 8 more to go, better them than me, It's all about the money 500Gs!"

----------------------------------------------------
Roddy’s Reign as HoH
----------------------------------------------------

Next it was clips of the HOH competition in which Roddy was the winner! Roddy in the DR "This week has been a freebee for me; I don't think I could have planned it better." Dani in the DR "Roddy is a huge threat to me, I think of everybody in this house he could win it, I think he needs to go." Eric in the DR "When I found out Roddy got it, I was ecstatic, he is my #1 ally in this game!" they then showed all of the HGs entering the HOH room to look at all the things that Roddy got. Roddy in the DR "I really think I know now who I want out, who I'm not afraid to offend and who I want as an ally. I'm feeling pretty confident." Chiara in the DR "I was overjoyed when I saw that Roddy had won." Amy in the DR "I just hope that Roddy is smart enough to make his own decisions and not let Chiara influence him." They cut to Chiara and Roddy in the hammock talking about whom he is going to nominate and Chiara says she knows he’s not going to nominate Gerry, and Roddy looks at her like shes got 2 heads and says that the bloodbath is just starting. They then show clips of Josh, Amy, Marcellas, and Gerry. Marcellas in the DR saying that part of his fear with Roddy as the HOH is that Tonya and Chiara were very close and he’s afraid that Chiara might try to influence Roddy to get some revenge. Dani in the DR saying that Roddy makes her nervous.

They next show Gerry asking Roddy if he can come in the HOH room and talk to him, and Roddy says sure and asks him to close the door. Cut to Marcellas outside telling the others that Gerry was in the HOH room with the door closed and is "pleading for his life like a prison b**ch." and that he will never do that. Cut to Roddy and Gerry in the HOH room. Roddy says to Gerry that if he does not put him on the nomination list, then does he have Gerry's word that he will do the same for him if he gets HOH later. Gerry agrees. Roddy in the DR " I don't want people to think that I didn't put them up because I like them, I want them to make a deal with me." Cut to Josh and Amy in the BR saying that they hope that Roddy puts Gerry up. Cut to Roddy and Eric in the HOH room saying that they like Josh but that he's too paranoid and ungracious and they don't trust him, and then Josh knocks at the door and comes in to say thank you for sticking by him and that he's glad that he's one of the three. Eric gets a look on his face like he's not so sure. Roddy in the DR saying that he has to keep his thoughts and strategies to himself because people are starting to get suspicious of him.

----------------------------------------------------
Workouts, Ramblings, and Budding Romances
----------------------------------------------------

Starts with the HGs working out in the yard. All the HGs say that they enjoy the AB classes that Dani runs. Dani says that she thinks that Gerry trying to do laps in the pool is ridicules because the pool is so small. But, they say it must be working for him, ridiculous or not because he is losing weight. Next they show Roddy listening to Beethoven and reading and Jason says that Roddy is a walking encyclopedia. They then show random clips of Roddy spouting tidbits of information. The other HGs say that even though it is informative, that sometimes Roddy can be a little over-zealous. He has a tendency to ramble on...Even though he is interesting and extremely funny. Jason says that he feels that Roddy is like a big brother to him. Sometimes teasing and sometimes protecting. Marcellas said that he thinks that Roddy is the perfect man.(Like we didn't already know that) Cut to Chiara saying that she is definitely the closest to Roddy in the house, they then show clips of Chiara and Roddy in several different situations. Jason then says that he thinks that Chiara is wonderful but she says things that make him turn 15 shades of red, but then 5 seconds later says something that makes him feel great about himself. Chiara in the DR says that there is no one that she would rather have a crush on her than Jason because he's a great person. Cut to Lisa asking Eric if he thinks that she is cute, he (of course) says yes. They then show random clips of Lisa and Eric together with a voice-over of Eric saying that he didn't expect to get into a relationship in the house but that there was an instant attraction to Lisa. They then show them in some romantic clips of them kissing and getting into bed together, with a voice-over of Lisa saying that she came into the house very strong and anti-male but she had an instant attraction to Eric. Next, clips of romantic conversations and touching in the dark.(WOOOHOOO)

----------------------------------------------------
Weekly Food Competition
----------------------------------------------------

Starts with the food competition, the HGs say that the worst thing that could happen to you in the house was that you might have to eat PBJ. They were given a "BATTIQUE" game earlier this week and Eric says that they don't give them things to do for no reason, so it must have to do with the food competition. And it did. The HGs were asked to go outside and there in the yard was a large Battique game and the game pieces (all various shapes and sizes) with different types of food on them. The board is two panes of glass in a frame, so that the game pieces can be slid down in between them. The object of the game is to get as many pieces in the frame as you can without any pieces sticking out the top.

After Roddy had read the rules and had informed them that they would be working as a group, Dani went first and picked the game piece with sweets on it (which included liquor). She dropped it on the left side on bottom. Josh was a little upset because he thought that sweets were not a necessity and the piece was rather large and took up a lot of room in the frame. Next was Amy, she decided not to pick the Cheese piece because she thought that people might think that she was being selfish. So she picked seafood. She dropped that one in. Third was Marcellas and he picked poultry. Lisa was next and she picked the mystery prize (which had a ? on it and was going to be a surprise for all the HGs). Next up was Josh and he chose meat. Eric was next, and he chose cheese (because Amy loves that more than life). Gerry picked condiments next (because it was the only piece that he thought would fit). Last was Jason, and he had snacks, but he could not make it fit. They had to remove the snacks but got to have everything else. Roddy then revealed the mystery prize. All HGs would get their favorite sub from Subway everyday for lunch that week. When the HGs reentered the house there was a six foot long Subway sub on the kitchen table for them to enjoy. They all dug in.

----------------------------------------------------
Eric Talks in his Sleep
----------------------------------------------------

The HGs then started to discuss Eric and how he talks in his sleep. They say that he says full sentences and has complete discussions with someone in his head. They then show random clips of Eric talking in his sleep.

----------------------------------------------------
Gerry Quotes Shakespeare
----------------------------------------------------

The HGs reveal that Gerry is given to quoting Shakespeare. He quotes it often and at inopportune times. They say that a lot of the time that what he quotes does not even make sense or isn't relevant to the conversation. They showed a few examples of his quotes and then showed an instance where the girls were in a BR and were talking girl talk and Gerry just stuck his head in the door and said "If a man is alone in the forest and he says something, is he still wrong?" The HGs are baffled as to why he would say something like this or what it meant.

----------------------------------------------------
Who to Nominate?
----------------------------------------------------

Josh then tries to convince Roddy that it would be best to nominate Lisa and Marcellas this week. He says that way Lisa is sure to go and that will ensure that Chiara will have a firm position in the group.

Cut to Gerry and Marcellas outside and they are discussing who they think that Roddy will put up. Marcellas says that he thinks he will put up the one who is the biggest threat, and Gerry says that he should break up the couples. Gerry says that those four people always vote as a block and it would be smart to break that up. So, if he was smart that he should put up Lisa and Eric.

Amy and Josh are in the BR and they are also discussing who he will put up and Amy says that she is not ready to go home. Josh told Amy that he had a plan that would make her safe for about 2 weeks. Josh in the DR says that he can get Amy to do whatever he wants, he can get her to vote the way he wants her too and if she gets HOH he can still get her to do what he wants. He then goes back to the HOH and tries once again to convince Roddy of who he should nominate. Roddy in DR says that Josh comes to him every 5 minutes with a new suggestion of who to nominate and its getting on his nerves.

----------------------------------------------------
America’s Choice Question
----------------------------------------------------

The HGs would like some private time... They ask for viewers to vote on who they would like to see have a private dinner with the guest of their choice.

----------------------------------------------------
Segment Five: The Nominations
----------------------------------------------------

The nomination process begins with Roddy going to the wall with all the HGs pictures and keys and collecting all the keys and returning to the HOH room. He then selects the keys that go into the red bag and puts the remainder of the keys in the nomination box. He then goes outside and asks all the HGs to sit at the kitchen table. He carries the box out to the table and begins by saying, "I put a lot of thought into this and I'm keeping my word about things. I realize that people do things because they have to do it and not because they necessarily want to do them, and with that said, I will begin by pulling the first key." He pulls the first key and it is Josh's and he is safe. Josh then pulls a key and says "Chiara you are safe." Chiara pulls the next key and says "Gerry you are safe." Gerry pulls the next key and says, “Danielle you are safe." Dani pulls the next key and tells Jason that he is safe. Jason pulls the second last key and tells Eric that he is safe. Eric then pulls the last key and says, "Lisa you are safe."

Roddy stands up and says, "I have nominated Amy and Marcellas, I will tell you why." He then proceeded to tell Amy that it was because she never thought of others, she only thought of herself and when you live in a house with that many people that you must think of how your actions affect the other people in the house. He then turned to Marcellas and said that he chose to nominate him because he would be Amy's biggest supporter and he thought it would be best to nominate him, too. He said it was purely strategy.

----------------------------------------------------
Closing Segment
----------------------------------------------------

Marcellas and Amy in the DR and Marcellas says that every time that they put up someone as a decoy, that person always ends up getting voted out. This week he is the decoy, so now he's out and he started to cry. Cut to Josh saying that it sucks that he will be losing Amy because he can control her. Cut back to Amy and Marcellas in the DR and Amy says that they can all kiss her ass.

The announcer says "Who will win the veto competition and will they save Amy or Marcellas, or will they leave the nominations the way that they are? Find out on the next Big Brother!"
