We met the houseguests in Big Brother 12 Episode 1, and then Hayden won HOH.
The question of the night remains: who’s the saboteur? Oh, like they’re going to tell anybody.
Andrew has decided he trusts Enzo.
Brendon is getting Rachel to fall for him when he says he’s a physicist. And yet he coaches a high school swim team. Either way, he doesn’t seem to be too concerned about keeping this a secret because he’s just telling random people really early. Annie’s sitting there watching this discussion, and she’s completely out of place.
Unlike everybody else who thinks it’s either Brendon or Andrew, Kathy’s theory is that the saboteur is a likeable girl.
Annie tells Ragan that she has a girlfriend. He’s obviously gay and is happy to not be alone in the house.
Hayden is observing Rachel and Brendon, seeing a showmance in the process of being formed.
Enzo goes to Hayden and says “Godfather, I need your help,” or something along those lines. He knows that you have to kiss up to the guy at the top. From there, he wants some brains in the operation, and he picks Matt. They also want to drag Lane into a foursome because they need some muscle. Matt is going to venture to say this is the strongest alliance in Big Brother history. So basically they should be history pretty quickly. The alliance is called “The Brigade”. Yeah, Lane doesn’t know what a brigade is.
For the challenge, they split into three teams of four. The losing team will be the have nots for the week. Andrew says that he will be unable to eat at all if he loses because slop is not kosher. Oy vey. I plan to have no sympathy for him since he’s doing it to himself.
Pink: Monet, Enzo, Britney, Lane
Green: Brendon, Annie, Kristen, Andrew
Blue: Matt, Kathy, Ragan, Rachel
They head out into the backyard, where they see a giant bucket of popcorn. Then Hayden joins them dressed as a fairy. One person from each team must jump into the caramel and then seach through the popcorn for Big Brother’s teeth. Brendon loses his shorts in the process as he goes against Matt and Monet. Rather than putting them back on, he just leaves them off so that Rachel can stare at his butt. Matt gives the blue team the lead. Kathy takes off after him. Brendon returns to tie it 1-1, and then Monet is next. Annie takes the lead for the green team. Enzo scores to tie the game at 2. Kristen laps Kathy to return with the green team’s third point. Andrew returns with the fourth tooth. Ragan makes up some ground to at least not be in last any more, as Britney seems to be dying on this course. Brendon makes it 5 for green. As Kathy flails about hopelessly, blue team heads back to last again. Enzo ties the game at 6, and rather than letting Britney sink them again, he decides to get a second tooth he finds as close to her as allowable. This prevents her from having to dig, but it’s still not enough to prevent the green team from winning. Lane finishes things off for the pink team. Meanwhile, Kathy’s still stuck in the caramel. Matt questions how she can fight crime if she can’t even get out of the caramel. Is she the saboteur?
This loss makes Matt, Kathy, Ragan, and Rachel the have nots, which means they will be eating slop, taking cold showers, and living in the have not bedroom. The beds are chase lounge chairs (at least they’re not hard), and there are jars full of bugs everywhere.
Kathy gives Britney a lecture about how she was struggling in the challenge. Wait. Britney was the one who was struggling? While she did horribly, Kathy was the one lying there all day.
The saboteur has struck again. There’s an X over Kathy’s and Britney’s pictures. Kathy pretends it doesn’t matter. Britney doesn’t hide that she’s angry. If you want something that’s going to cause drama, this is probably it. Britney’s already decided Kathy is her enemy.
