Britney won the power of veto and obviously did not use it in Big Brother 12 Episode 15, meaning yet another showmance will be broken up this week, much to everybody’s delight.
Britney apologizes to Rachel and gives her a hug. That was weird. She does not, however, hug Brendon, who she calls the spawn of Satan. Ragan, likewise, is easily offended by Brendon.
Brendon would prefer to take a dive rather than stay in this game. Rachel could be the wife/mother of his children. This guy’s an idiot. He agrees, too, saying “I guess I’m an idiot.” Even if that quote is somewhat out of context, it’s the only necessary part.
Enzo doesn’t get these people. They’re fighting each other. They should be fighting the Brigade. The rest of the house is just too stupid.
In spite of Brendon’s ridiculous veto ceremony speech, Ragan tells Rachel that she’s at the center of all the conflict in the house. Then Rachel starts crying. Again. Of course, Brendon marches over to defend her, without knowing what the conversation was about or why. Britney and Ragan find this all quite amusing and decide to poke Brendon with a stick.
Ragan’s next saboteur task is to create paranoia that the voted out person isn’t really leaving. Certainly a plausible scenario. Would not be the first time.
Julie asks: who is the most underestimated player left in the game, not including Brendon and Rachel who are on the block?
Matt: Kathy
Lane: Ragan
Britney: Ragan
Enzo: Hayden
Ragan: Ragan
Kathy: Ragan
Hayden: Britney
Rachel: Everybody
Brendon: Britney
Brendon’s ex-fiancee says that she’s heard everything he has said to Rachel. She and her family are amused/grateful while watching him on the show. Ultimately, though, I’m wondering why CBS is giving an ex the chance to air their story. We usually see friends, family, pets, co-workers… but never a bitter ex with an axe to grind.
Votes
Enzo: Rachel
Britney: Rachel
Kathy: Rachel
Ragan: Rachel
Lane: Rachel
Hayden: Rachel
By a vote of 6-0, Rachel has been evicted from the Big Brother house. Brendon did not get his wish, no matter how much of a fool he may have tried to make out of himself. It’ll be hilarious if he wins HOH, though. As she’s departing, he tells her he loves her. Would be nice if she made an effort to respond in kind for once. She says she has plans to move to LA, maybe. Britney’s departing words come off as bitchy. The other houseguests mostly play it smart.
Having made it to the halfway point, Rachel is off to the jury house. Julie tells her this may not be the last she’s seen of the Big Brother house.
The object of the HOH competition is to untangle themselves from all the knots they’re tethered to. They’ll have to deal with mud and chickens, too. Then a storm is brewing. This doesn’t look like it’ll go on for too long, but it will be long enough to continue beyond tonight’s show.
