LIVE EVICTION: LORI VS. AMY


Big Brother Episode #5 * July 18, 2002



------------------------------------------
The Power of Veto Revisited
------------------------------------------

Flashback of Gerry using the power of veto and the speech. Gerry is proud, "I will leave this House a richer man than when I came in, whether I get a dime." Sitting outside with Gerry and Marcellas, Lori calls his speech a "beautiful confession," Gerry says `it was a "manly confession."

Flashback Marcellas says it's like "'Touched by an Angel' vs. 'Baywatch.'" The Sixpack feel betrayed by his use of Veto Power and replace him with Tonya. This makes Chiara and Lisa more comfortable, because now the group has an equal number of women and men. The new group splits along gender lines, planning their moves, looking down the road to when their Group of Six are the last HouseGuests standing. Jason and Danielle remain contented outsiders, willing to "let them fight amongst themselves."

------------------------------------------
Julie Talks to the Houseguests
------------------------------------------

In the Living Room, host Julie Chen talks to the HouseGuests. After first having some audio difficulties, she asks Danielle how she feels about the introduction of the Power of Veto. Danielle says it is "scandalous" and says that whoever thought of that wrinkle is "sick." Julie then asks Marcellas and gives Gerry, a kiss on the cheek, in appreciation. Julie asks Jason about winning the money tree challenge with Lori and Jason admits that the $3,000 he stands to split with Lori has played a factor in his decision, but mostly because everyone else keeps bringing it up. Julie asks if the Nominees have anything to say and we start with Amy. She tells everyone that she enjoyed her "reign as nominee," and Lori calls the entire experience a "great adventure."

--------------------------------------------------------
First Round of Votes to Evict Are Revealed
--------------------------------------------------------

We see the first three votes in the eviction process:

Gerry says some nice things about both Lori and Amy and then votes to evict Amy.

Danielle says that Lori is coo coo for cocoa puffs but because someone rubs you the wrong way you don't go back on your word. She votes to evict Amy.

Tonya says nice things about both then votes to evict Lori.

Vote Tally: Amy 2 Lori 1


------------------------------------------
Family Segment
------------------------------------------

Lorraine, Marcellas' roommate, says Marcellas is her "little brother, like the son my parents never had." She watches him on TV and yells to him, she said that initially he didn't seem to be "interacting with the others." But recalls Marcellas saying there is no runner up in this beauty pageant.

Lori's mother Myrna is concerned that Lori "might be seen as a crybaby" because her emotions have overcome her a few times, but adds that Lori is a "Mom first" who cares more about her kids than anything else in the world. Shows Lori's kids having fun and then her little boy with a BB gun shooting at a hand drawn picture of Josh.

Back to Lorainne: Gerry uses the Veto Power to save Marcellas, she is excited and screaming.

Amy's parents, Fay and Taylor, admit that Amy "comes on like a snob" but is very funny once people get to know her. Her mother is quite concerned about her drinking and carrying on in the house but admits that is just the way Amy is.

Myrna says that Lori's experiences in the House have been "hard to watch," while Fay says Amy has "more confidence, but that could work against her."

Big Brother 2 Update: Nicole, Hardy, Autumn and Kent
--------------------------------------------------------------

Nicole is a DJ on a local radio station, while still happily married to Jeff. She used some of her runner-up winnings to go on a cruise. Of the HouseGuests she lived with, Hardy is the only one she keeps in touch with regularly. Hardy has done some modeling and even did some commercial work with Shannon, despite her unsanitary use of his toothbrush last year. He says that they're not adversaries anymore and maintain a cordial relationship; he also declares that he's "single and available."

Autumn is pursuing her singing career, as the lead singer in a local group and chases her dream of a record deal. She is still with Tony, and her son Justice is doing very well. Autumn also admits to being mortified by watching the tapes of the events that occurred during her time in the house, and that she fought an eating disorder after leaving the House. She has since learned how to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Kent keeps in touch with Bunky and with the people who send him autograph requests from around the world. He's starting a venture with Autumn, Sheryl and Bunky called "Reality on the High Seas," an opportunity for fans of the show to sail with their favorite reality show contestants.

Nicole isn't fond of Josh, and Hardy thinks that Amy is "a little much." Kent warns that Tonya should stay away from "pins and sharp objects" and Autumn hopes that Jason and his "wholesome heart" prevail.

-----------------------------------------------------------
Third Round of Votes to Evict are Revealed
-----------------------------------------------------------

Marcellas votes to evict Lori.

Josh won't break his word on the love of his girlfriend so he chooses to evict Amy.

Roddy stays with the alliance and votes to evict Lori (this is not revealed on camera..Julie makes us wait to see because it is a tie)

Final Vote Tally: Amy 4 Lori 5

--------------------------------------------------------
The First Houseguest to be Evicted is...Lori
--------------------------------------------------------

Julie Chen breaks the news to the group that Lori has been evicted by a vote of 5-4. Lori exchanges hugs and kisses with all her fellow houseguests and asks them to walk her to the door. She crosses the courtyard out of the House and is quite confused as to where she needs to go as is the staff since Julie keeps saying in here in here and Lori is asking where do you need me. She sits down for an interview with Julie. Lori says she wasn't surprised that she was nominated, but that she didn't know "what to believe in that House." She tells Julie that she's not disappointed with anyone's actions in the House, but worries about what she might have done if she had stayed in longer. "The longer I was in the House, the more bases I would have had to cover," she says before watching the farewell testimonials from Gerry, Danielle and Jason.

------------------------------------------
Head of Household: In the House
------------------------------------------

The first eviction is now over and the houseguests compete for the next Head of Household. The Competition is called "In the House" and requires the HouseGuests to answer questions relating to items and events that occurred in the House, using props to signify different rooms (pillow for living room, ladle for the kitchen, lizard for the tiki room and a ping pong paddle with an X for none). All answered the first two questions correctly. Josh, Roddy and Danielle were knocked out on the third question. Eric was knocked out on the fourth question; Jason was out next on the sixth question. (ed. doesn’t look good for the Six Pack). The seventh question stumps Gerry, Tonya and Chiara, leaving Amy and Marcellas in contention. They both get question eight correct before Amy misses number nine, making the next HoH Marcellas. (go come back kid)

Next Time on Big Brother 3...

Next episode of BB: Marcellas has to put two HouseGuests on the chopping block. Will he strike back at those who tried to remove him from the game or will he follow another strategy?
