(episode 14, continued)

While all of the other houseguests are in the HOH, James and Sarah discover a fiesta in the backyard, complete with blue margaritas, snacks, and zombies. Oh, wait! They're actually doll-like pinatas which are to be decorated by the HGs to resemble themselves. Jennifer soon discovers the fiesta and although James and Sarah encourage her not to tell the others, she hauls a pinata up to the HOH to show the other hamsters. The dummies come running and screaming to see the dummies.

In cruel BB fashion, those on the PB&J diet aren't allowed to eat or drink any of the good stuff, but they are allowed to eat paste and sniff the Sharpies. Most of the pinatas suck, but Janelle's looks like a real blow-up doll, which should be kept away from Howie, and James' is complete with halo, POV medallion, and two (blurred) middle fingers.
(see the screencap thread for some other highlights!)

The BB editors have some fun with Howie's Diary Room confession by superimposing the pinata's head over Howie's and making it appear to talk. The dummy am funny.

Sarah approaches April and asks what she did to make everyone so mad. April tries to explain that it was the lying, and that James has Sarah do his dirty work, etc. James appears and berates Sarah for talking to the others. Sarah whines that she just wanted to know what she did to make them mad.

James and Sarah then try to convince Janelle that they have been honest, and that the other team has been fueling the fire by spreading lies. Janelle is confused about what to believe. Sarah tells James that she's going to make the others' lives a living hell. Aww, don't go away mad, Sarah~ just. go. away.

Recap: Thursday, August 11, 2005
Episode 15

The show opens with rehash from the last episode, then we find Julie Chen live at FOTH. She announces that America is on pins and needles, because of the America's Choice reveal. I think she got that wrong~ actually America wants to stick pins and needles in their eyes when she's onscreen.

She shows us a peek of the houseguests, live, inside the house. They sit with fake smiles plastered on their faces, anxiously awaiting what the evening will bring.

Now we have to endure more Veto ceremony rehash, complete with nomination ceremony flashback, then we are treated to Howie in DR, discusses his reasoning for nomination. Or, lack thereof.

Ivette has a minor freak-out after her pawnimation, because no one has reassured her that she's ooookay. Beau consoles her, then April walks in the room and asks what they're doing. Beau says they are merely relaxing. I don't know how anyone could believe that, because being in the same house, let alone the same bed with Ivette is a far cry from relaxing.

April nervously leaves the room. Ivette flips her the bird, and says she doesn't trust her or Jennifer. April goes directly to the HOH, where she and the HOH team discuss the possibility of evicting Ivette instead of Sarah. April says that Howie put a big question mark in her head about Ivette during an earlier conversation, because of her relationship with James. Howie plays on these doubts by saying that if they're not sure what Ivette is really up to with James, then she could be a big threat. April comments that Ivette hasn't said one word to her since the previous day. Is she complaining about that??

Rachel asks where Jennifer is, because she wants to talk to her. April says that Jennifer is working out with Maggie, and says she assumes that Jennifer is not telling Maggie about the possible new plan concerning Ivevictette.

(episode 15, continued)

Footage of DR voting commentary from Janelle, who states that Ivette is her worst enemy in the house, then April, who says that Ivette gets everyone all riled up, and she just wants the house to be calm, and finally Beau, who says that he wants to keep Ivette in the game because they are partners and he loves her to death. April comes back with some lame comment about cutting off the tail of the snake by voting out Sarah. Janelle then states that Sarah doesn't pose a threat to her, other than that she's working with James, who Janelle doesn't trust. In his kettleriffic commentary, Beau says that Sarah is annoying and naive. He votes to evict Sarah.

We come back to the live show with Howie in the HOH room, alone with Chen. Poor Howie. She asks Howie about his tough week of nominating Sarah and James, only to have James win the veto. She wants to know if Howie regrets his decision. Howie basically says he doesn't. Yet. Julie reminds Howie that James said he wouldn't put Howie or Rachel on the block, and wants to know if he belives that. He doesn't. Then Chen wants to know who Howie would like to see return to the game. He says that Kaysar was the brains around there, and that he's been getting headaches trying to think for himself. He'd like Kaysar back so that he can stop thinking. Stop thinking?? Howie, you never even started!! Howie also says that it would be great for Michael to come back to stir things up and to be an ally. Having Eric back wouldn't be a problem for him either if he could come in and start some shit with James. FINALLY Chen wants to know what surprised him the most about being HOH. No surprise to us that he rambles on about how stressful it was. You know, having to think and stuff.


We return to more DR voting footage. Maggie says that people see Ivette as a bigger threat than they do Sarah. Jennifer states that she and Ivette haven't always gotten along, and that she's a loose cannon and a wild card. Rachel comments that if Eric comes back, Ivette will "cling to him like Saran Wrap," and that those two, combined with Maggie would make a pretty strong, (she forgot "annoying"), team. James claims that people are evicting Sarah to keep him from having any friends in the game. Again with Maggie, who says that getting rid of Sarah would weaken James, and that what she's ultimately going for. Jennifer then states that she has a lot of good reasons for getting rid of both of them, but still doesn't know who she's going to select. James votes to evict Ivette, giving Sarah a sympathy vote.

The two nominees are then allowed to say their final words. I only wish they really were Ivette's final words. Sarah blathers about how it's a game, there are no hard feelings, and that they are all her friends, and that she feels that she's made lasting friendships in the house. Funny that she hated everyone just yesterday. Then she talks about her relationship with James and tells him she loves him.

Ivette starts by thanking her girlfriend and family for being her heart and strength in the game and then says that she's made some beautiful friendships and some life-long friends from the game. She thanks Beau for bringing her here, and says that he's a amazing person and an
amazing player. *coughbullshitcough*. Of course her speech would not be complete without a cliche, so she ends by reminding the HGs that actions speak louder than words. And Ivette speaks louder than actions.

(episode 15, continued)

Back in the studio, Chen first calls in Michael, who disappoints me by not grabbing Chen's ass or burping in her face. She asks him what he would do first in the house, he states that he'd have to catch up on what has happened since he left. Then Chen asks him who he most wants to see in the house. He says Kaysar. And Janelle.

Next, Chen reveals that Eric was the next one evicted by bringing him into the studio, and we noticed a pleasantly surprised face on Michael, although he and Eric hug and make nice. Eric bullshits that the issues between them are over and that they've made ammends. Chen wants to know what to expect from Eric if he returns to the house. Eric admits that he'd be the same as before, so just assume that we can expect nothing but the same annoying Eric.

Finally, Chen reveals Kaysar. Eric and Michael seem shocked. They hug. Eric calls them the Three Stooges. Chen wants to know what to expect from Kaysar, and he assures her that he wants to get back in there and stir things up, and that he's got more surprises in store. She wishes them all good luck.


Chen shows the hamsters the guys in the studio with her. They are happy, and yell shout-outs. STFU, Ivette! Then the two with the most votes are instructed to get their bags and go outside to the FOTH. No surprise~ it's Eric and Kaysar. She bids Michael adieu.

After the longest commercial break since the BB5 finale, we are taken inside the BB house, where the HGs are told that one of the evictees is about to return, then we go back outside to hear Chen announce the winner... It's KAYSAR!

Inside the house, the doorbell rings, and Kaysar enters. There are happy, hugging hamsters everywhere, ('cept for James). Kaysar is knocked to the ground, and Howie appears to have been slightly injured. They tell Kaysar he looks great and wants to know where he's been.

Chen announces that Kaysar received an "overwhelming" 82% of the vote, then she tells us to stay tuned for the HOH competition. After a break, she welcomes Kaysar "home", then sends everyone out to the BY for the HOH comp. They are all wearing workout-type clothes.

In the BY is a building with glass walls and roof. There is a large turntable in the middle with colored boxes on it. This is an endurance comp, called Pressure Cooker. Each HG has to enter, (except for Howie), find a button, put their finger on it and never, ever let go. If they do, a surprise box will open with a prize inside. The prizes could be good or bad. They do win that prize but lose their chance at HOH. They also are to stay inside the box until two other HGs lose, then they can leave the box in groups of three.

Everyone finds a place, and presses their buttons. The game begins, and Julie starts the fun by opening one of the boxes right away. It's full of FLIES!! The houseguests scream in disgust as I giggle with glee. The show ends and everyone in the Western Hemisphere fires up their Real Player to watch the live feeds.

Be sure to tune in on Saturday to see if anyone has been eaten alive in the Pressure Cooker.

(episode 16, continued)

Back to the Pressure Cooker after two hours have elapsed and all the HGs are still in. James has on Sarah's scarf that he sprayed with her perfume before she left. It will give him strength in the contest. It will also come in handy when he needs to muzzle Ivette later. James says he's in it for revenge. The others are there to make sure that James doesn't win.

Time for yet another rehash segment where Kaysar re-enters the house and the ensuing mob scene. James notes that the people that voted for him to be evicted last week are now kissing his but out of fear or retaliation. Barely masking their disappointment, that their beloved cult leader didn't return, Maggie and Ivette hug, and whisper that they're back to square one, then as the others gather around Kaysar, Ivette calls out, "Eric!?!" between the cracks of the closed door. Pathetic much? Maggie admits that she's sad, and she thought for sure that he was coming back. Ivette DRs that she was just certain that America had fallen in love with her Cappy the way she did, and when the doorbell rang, and it wasn't him, her heart was crushed. Who wants to be the one to tell her that Eric got less than 18% of the vote? Get in line!

We return to the Pressure Cooker, where some flies still linger, including April. Everyone is still in the game, as they bring Kaysar up to speed on the past week.

In the "Beau's chocolate pee-pee" segment, the hamsters gawk at Beau's, *cough*, member in the shower. Apparently it's huge, although you might want to ask Jennifer for a compare and contrast report. She even went back for a second peek, as did April. Everyone screams and laughs while Ivette sings a pee-pee song, as if she knows what she's talking about.

Now we're at the five hour mark in the HOH contest, and amazingly, all of the hamsters are still in the Pressure Cooker. Howie reminds them that they're not allowed to sit or kneel, only squat. Also, he is allowed to open one of the surprise boxes. It's a dead fish and it stinks. April knows all about that.

At midnight, after six hours, Howie announces that the food restriction is over, and the storage room is full of food. The hamsters salivate.

Now we arrive at a segment where Rachel admires Jenn's "dancing", so Jenn gives her a lesson. Rachel will need more lessons. Actually she'll need lots and lots of lessons, but hopefully not from Jennifer, because there's only so much of that shit I can take. Jenn tries to teach Rachel how to move like a snake. She could probably teach her how to act like one, too.
