Whoa! Sometimes Big Brother takes a little while to get going. Let's face it, as much as we hate Scott and Jase and their antics, they were carrying the house. Yes, you can make a case and say if Scott and Jase weren't around bullying people, there would be a more interesting dynamic in the house. Still, they are in the house, and so we have lived with what they had to offer. Some of it was memorable, some of it was not. Overall, I think that many people had a feeling that Jase and Scott, with the help of their Horsemen brothers Drew and Michael, had a stranglehold on the house and were really just biding their time until the game was over. On paper, it looked like the Horsemen had everything wrapped up. But Big Brother isn't played on paper, it is played in a house in the Valley filled with lots of Ikea (probably the store in Burbank).
Now, the good people at Too Much Free Time wonder if Julie Chen is preggers. I'm not sure if Julie, or the Chenbot as they say, has got a little bun in the oven, but maybe I was too distracted by her cameltoe. Anyway, you decide. She did sport a slightly less luminous pair of pants with a lime one-shoulder number. Bet she goes for the shiny stuff next week.
Anyway, Julie is pretty polished at saying "Project DNA" these days, and the status of Project DNA happened to be a major focal point of the house this week. Adria and Natalie happened to be up for eviction this week along with Holly, our favorite Nobel Laureate from the other side of Mulholland. For the conspiracy theorists out there, this was going to be a banner moment of the show. Would the producers somehow fudge the results in order to keep the bombshell that is Natalie and Adria alive?
From the look of things, the producers didn't meddle. Adria, with obvious incentive to keep herself on, worked the house hard. She was in tears after her nomination and desperately tried to make her case to everybody who would listen. Once again, she counted on Karen, Diane, Will, and Nakomis to vote for her to stay. Similarly, she knew the Horsemen who were able to vote, Michael, Scott, and Jase, were against her. Adria's options were to work on Marvin, who could either keep her in outright, or vote for Holly and send it to Drew for a tiebreaker, thereby forcing her to try and convince him.
Adria tried first with Drew, because she has a good relationship with him. They have mentioned before how they had a brother and sister relationship. You might have noticed, but Drew reads The Bible a lot. And speaking of The Bible, you think that being the only book in the house, they may have sprung for a hardcover. It's like some intern left it lying around on accident and they just left it there. And couldn't we get a translated version of the Torah or Koran in there as well? Perhaps the Tipitaka for Holly? But I digress. Adria shares a love of the scripture with Drew and they seem to talk about their faith a lot. Ironically, she makes a similar religious-type appeal to Marvin, telling him how she was put there by a higher power to help the righteous. I am sure that Adra is very pious woman with deep convictions, but as Jase and Marvin were saying later on, God wouldn't want anybody in their house.
It seemed like doom for Adria, but the Horsemen were definitely getting restless. Drew made an appeal to get holly out because he wanted to keep the horsemen together, then was intimidated by Scott and Jase. Scott had a change of heart, or at least realized that Holly would not sleep with him, and suggested that they flip a bitch and vote Holly out. Tome ese Jase! The horsemen then began to go over the scenarios in their head. Unable to keep track of five people on each side, they decided to use some visual aids to help them. "Get the LifeSavers!" says Scott, and so with the aid of the, uhhh, fruity candy, the boys went over the voting scenarios in the open. Jase kept wondering why they were voting out their ally Holly, the cheeze-it in this ensemble, because they would lose numbers. He is probably right, but we all enjoyed thinking Holly would go and the balance of power would likely change. Things got downright snippy as Drew called out Jase for spending 5 minutes with the Horsemen and 24/7 with Holly.
