Usually I hate when they recap the eviction in its entirety, but this was by far my favorite eviction
ever so reliving it was just the icing on my "Gnat is outta here" cake! The look of sheer desperation and dismay was priceless. The best part about it was that 30 seconds before Sheila put her out on her tookus, she totally screwed herself by admitting her loyalty was to the boys. Sheila was smart to take advantage of that and use it in her eviction speech. Thank God my cohort Adam did the recap for that episode because someone would have had to peel me off the ceiling for me to do it. I was on fire with glee.
Ok so Adam was a big jerk and sold out Ryan by mouthing to Gnat that he was the vote for her to stay. This was despicable. The least he could have done was not verbalize it. If he wanted to give a knowing wink or even a glance I could have overlooked it, but he said it right in front of Ryan. What a moron! I'm glad Ryan called him out on it. I can't believe Adam tried to pass it off as him saying "what do you want me to do" instead of "I voted for you." Maybe this will make Ryan turn against Adam and stick with the ladies for the final three. We'll have to wait and see what happens with the veto.
The funny (yet annoying) part of the HOH comp was the question about the existing relationship in the house. Since we knew this was the guinea pigs, the conspiracy theories by the houseguests were rather hilarious. Sheila and Adam are related, Sheila is Sharon's aunt, maybe two of the final four are related and they don't know it! All made me giggle. I'm not going to get into what a ridiculous question it was and how it pretty much threw the game to Ryan. Ultimately, Sharon tanked it on the final question so we were subjected to more pictures and even a letter from Vile Jen in the HOH room. She went on and on about how she loves Ryan and supports him and that she can't wait to get her grubby hands on his winnings. Ok she didn't say that last part, but I bet somewhere she's thinking it. Oddly, the letter didn't mention anything about calling him a racist. She is the only downside to him winning. Otherwise, Ryan has played a great game.
Finally we heard Adam give his loyalty to Sheila after weeks of her claiming they were together to the end. I don't really know if this is for real, but I kind of hope so for Sheila's sake. I don't really see her winning, but I'd feel a bit bad if she went out like Natalie. She may be a nag but she's no Gnat. If they manage to stick together to the final two, it could be the most amazing pair sincewell, ok last season. But it's still amazing considering how much they hated each other in the beginning. Who would win in an Adam-Sheila finale?
I'm having the same doubts about the Sharon-Ryan alliance. I think they were smart to pair together, but would Ryan save her if he won the veto? Why are they so afraid about exposing their alliance? There is only a couple weeks left. It seems that Sharon is more committed to this alliance than Ryan, but after Adam stabbed him in the back who knows? If Ryan wins the veto and keeps the nominations the same, Sharon should see this as a betrayal. He may claim he can make Adam vote the way he wants, but he shouldn't be so sure. I'm so confused!
The luxury competition actually yielded a pretty interesting prize. The winning pair gets to go to the premiere of "What Happens in Vegas" (the new movie with Kutch and Cameron Diaz) in Vegas with tons of free accommodations, spa treatments and a shopping spree. They also got to view the movie that night. The losing pair gets chained together for 24 hours. All they had to do was smash bottles over each other's head and find dice rings in the bottles. Whoever found the most had a bigger chance of winning the grand prize. With six of the nine rings in their favor, Sharon and Ryan were the victors and Adam and Sheila got the handcuffs.
After the luxury comp, the house guests got the "final four" table and the reminder that the end is drawing near. Even though two people are going on the block, the nominations mean nothing until after the veto. Whoever wins is guaranteed the final three with the HOH. No one but Ryan is safe. In the end, Sharon and Sheila were nominated but Adam could easily be going to the jury. This is what rules about this point in the game. The feeds may be boring, but the stakes are high. The veto holder is the lone vote (unless Ryan wins) so who would Sheila evict if it's between Sharon and Adam? What would Sharon do? Adam? I think everyone is aligned with everyone at this point so it's anyone's guess. I can't wait until Tuesday. What do you think will happen based on who wins the veto? Where does Ryan's loyalty lie? Are Sheila and Adam really sticking together? Tell me your thoughts and then check back here to discuss the veto. -
