LUXURY COMPETITION: Surf's Up
WED 9.18: The HouseGuests have two rounds to ride a hydraulic surfboard. The two with the highest cumulative time win a cruise on the Pacific Ocean and, more importantly, a chance to be out of the House for a while. They must remain standing on the board, and can't touch it or grab it to regain balance. Every 15 seconds, the difficulty level of the board is increased. Lisa gets a combined 1:04, followed by Danielle with a 1:43. Jason stays on for 1:56 and Amy lasts 2:04, giving the trip to the Southerners.

LUXURY COMPETITION: Phone Home
SAT 9.14: The HouseGuests each are granted a three-minute phone call home from T Mobile, plus a $1000 gift to a relative. However, there's a twist. Calling them into the Diary Room one-by-one, Julie Chen offers them $5000, then $10,000, and finally $15,000 in addition to their already awarded prizes. The catch is that if they accept the money, the other HouseGuests lose their phone calls and $1000 prize. To entice them further, Julie tells them that nobody will find out that they said yes, unless they themselves tell them. Danielle comes in first and accepts the initial $5000 offer. Amy goes next and holds out for $10,000. Lisa refuses all three offers, saying the phone call is more important to her. Jason holds out, but accepts the $15,000 offer. Amy wins the phone call by virtue of her cell-phone having the lowest number printed under a strip of yellow tape.

FOOD COMPETITION
SAT 9.14: The HouseGuests, wearing oversized suits made of sponge, have to soak up the water from two large kiddie pools, then transfer it to seven empty, smaller kiddie pools, each representing a different day of the week. If they raise the water level in the smaller pools to the proper level, they win a theme meal for that day of the week. The HouseGuests win Italian food for Monday, Surf and Turf for Tuesday, Japanese food for Wednesday, lose out on Mexican food for Thursday, win Southern BBQ for Friday, lose Indian food for Saturday and win Chinese food for Sunday. For Thursday and Saturday, they will eat PB and J.

HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD: The Dinner Party From Hell
THU 9.12: The HouseGuests get dressed up for a formal dinner party, unaware that they'll be eating the grossest foods imaginable. Lisa and Amy are on one team, Danielle and Marcellas on the other. For the first two rounds, one HouseGuest from each team has a minute to eat the food in front of them. Each round represents two days of regular food. If they can't eat all of the food, they'll be on PB and J for those two days. In Round One, Lisa has to eat the sexual organs of a sea urchin and Marcellas has to eat escargot. For Round Two, Danielle is served boiled pig's feet in kraut and Amy gets poi. In Round Three, the portions and time are doubled, but both HouseGuests can eat. Marcellas and Danielle get jungle curry and Amy and Lisa get haggis. No one successfully eats their food in the allotted time, putting the entire House (including HoH Jason, who didn't participate) on PB and J all week.

VETO COMPETITION
THU 9.12: The HouseGuests have to cross a grid containing photographs of the evicted HouseGuests in the order of their eviction. Complicating things are the laser beams criss-crossing the board. Every time they break one of the laser beams or touch the carpeting between the photos, a :15 penalty is assessed. An additional 1:00 penalty is assessed if they step on the photos out of order. Amy goes first, making it through in 1:04 with :30 in penalties. After deciding she didn't want to win the Golden Veto, Lisa walks across the board without trying to avoid the beams. She makes it in :21 but with 3:45 in penalties. Danielle is the slowest at 1:34 plus 3:00 in penalties. Jason takes only :28 with 1:30 in penalties. Marcellas wins the Competition, getting across in :52 with only one :15 penalty.

HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD: And Then There Were Four
THU 9.12: Amy, Danielle and Lisa are asked a series of questions about the four remaining HouseGuests. To answer, they step on a number they believe best answers the question. After six questions, the HouseGuest with the most correct answers wins HoH. The Questions were:
  1. How many of the four remaining HouseGuests has been HoH at least once. (The answer is 3. Everyone gets a point.)
  2. How many held the Power of Veto? (The answer is 4. Danielle gets a point.)
  3. How many failed to get 15 food vouchers in an earlier Competition? (The answer is 3. Lisa gets a point.)
  4. How many had their gnome survive intact? (The answer is 1. Amy and Danielle get 1 point each.)
  5. How many opened their Veto box in an earlier Veto Competition? (The answer is 2. Everyone gets a point.)
  6. How many gained more than 3 pounds during the brownie eating Food Competition? (The answer is 2. No one gets a point.)
Danielle wins the HoH Competition.
