Glass House Recap: Temptation, Deceit, & Fake Hugs

Kevin updates Andrea and Mike on the tragic events which have befallen their enemy alliance.  They’re content to just sit back and watch them self-destruct.

Kevin tells Gene he was sickened by Gene’s little Romeo display.  Gene tries really hard to pretend he actually cares about Joy, because he knows the facts are working out in his favor to pull this kind of move.  We do the same thing when in arguments with our husbands or boyfriends.  ”Tell me the last time I said something like that?  You can’t!  Because it never happened!”  In reality, we know we did and we know exactly when and where, but we also know they don’t keep track of stuff like that the same way we do.  

The bottom two this week are Gene and Jeffy.  Holy moly!  Jeff got more votes than Gene, so he picks first.  The look on Gene’s face is pretty funny.  I guess his arrogance worked against him.

Erica thinks she’s got the most votes because she’s honest.  She has a lot of love for Kevin and Jeffy is ready to puke.  She thinks that he’s more likeable when he’s around her.  She believe she brings out the best in Kevin.  It’s like wedding vows you wrote for your groom to say.

Now for the game.  There are puppet show sets and each puppet has an expression on it’s face.  Kevin gets voted “cool”, Jeffy the “crybaby”, and Andrea “happy”.  They have to use marionettes to move face pucks to two different containers.  You can put them in the team container or in the money container.  No one will know where each person will put their pucks.  Jeff, being the team captain, puts his into the money container on every other puck.  Kevin and Andrea are putting theirs in the team container.  That’s actually pretty funny.  Use those a-holes to win this challenge for you!  Jeff just moved up on my list!

Mike is “grumpy”, Gene is “boring”, and Erica is “love-crazy”.  Gene can’t score a puck to save his life for the first part, but then gets the hang of it and throws them all into the team tube.  Mike starts throwing one after another into the money tube, but claims he’s not throwing the challenge – he’s just lining his pockets a bit.  Erica can’t get a single puck to sit on its hand for a while, but then figures it out and puts all of her pucks into the team tube.  This will be a bit closer than the other challenges have been.

They learn that at least one person was tempted by the cash and you see Jeffy start sweating. 

These people have really got to work on their pokerfaces.   

It was a very close game, but team Jeffy was the winner.  Uh-oh, Genie-Poo, I think you might have just lost your paddle for your journey up Shit Creek.  Gene’s team only needed 7 pucks to tie, so Mike screwed them over.  Mike, at least, admits that he took money, so Erica’s pissed that he threw that challenge because now she’s possibly going into Limbo with Gene.
