Big Brother 9 Episode 22
Posted by Shane on Tuesday, April 1, 2008 at 8:09 pm
Natalie took advantage of her newfound HOH power and nominated James and Joshuah in Big Brother 9 Episode 21.
James is getting tired of being on the block. It’s really simple. He played way too aggressively and lied without provocation. He made his own bed, and now he’s going to be seen as a target for the rest of the game.
Sheila’s there to tell James he’s going to win veto. Then she offers a pep talk to Joshuah as well, within hearing distance of James. Rather than just keeping his mouth shut, he goes to confront everybody. Typical James. Once this is apparently all over, he still can’t leave well enough alone. Now it’s time to go do his best Chelsia impersonation and fight with Sheila and call her a two-faced bitch, which may be true but still. Dude, somebody medicate this guy already.
James still can’t figure out why the house voted him back in if they now all want him gone. He made them want him gone. Doesn’t he get it? Wasn’t he supposed to change his strategy to something that didn’t suck?
Natalie picks Ryan for the veto (houseguest’s choice).
Joshuah chooses Sheila at random.
James chooses Sharon at random.
The veto challenge is a guessing game. They must identify how many of each item are in each container. If you don’t want to answer, you can just fold and let other people eliminate themselves. James is just going to keep folding and watch the others drop. Smart strategy. Uninspired challenge design. Sharon and Joshuah are out first. Natalie gets a point. Natalie is eliminated on the next round. Ryan gets a point. Sheila gets the next point because the other two folded. James finally stays in and gets a point because the other two fold. James stays again and gets a point again because the other two fold. For the second time in a row, Ryan was closest but folded. James gets the next point and wins the power of veto.
Good news for James. Bad news for Josh. For the first time, his ego is not showing its head.
Josh is assuming that Sharon’s going up and he’s heading home. She tries to comfort him, but the odds he’s wrong aren’t very good. She quickly realizes resistance is futile.
After some crying, though, Josh decides he’s not done after all. He goes to Natalie to make a deal. He wants to get a tie, which she will break. All this is going on while Sheila’s in the bathroom telling Sharon how great her friend is. Can’t say I blame him. He thinks he’s got James and Ryan. They’re not going to tell Adam or Sheila. He agrees to give Natalie two weeks of safety in exchange. But I do wonder: why would she trust Josh and James?
James takes himself off the block and tells people they need to start winning. Why? Losing everything hasn’t harmed Adam or Sheila any. As expected, Sharon goes up in his place.

[…] Last night, James went off the deep end but managed to stay composed enough to win veto again. In his place, Sharon was nominated, again as a pawn. This week, however, her partner Joshuah had other plans. He tried to get her kicked out of the house and believes he’s managed to secure Ryan’s and James’ votes, which would be enough to force a tie. In order to get Natalie’s vote in the event of a tie, he’s given her a guarantee of two weeks of safety. I can’t see the logic behind why she’d stick with this plan, though. […]
