7-25-03 - FOOD COMPETITION: PARATROOPERS
Dressed in camouflage, the HouseGuests head outside for a Food Competition called "Paratroopers." The HouseGuests are eager to win some grub, and the competition begins. Miniature parachutes fall from the sky, each carrying a colored capsule representing a type of food. The HouseGuests must catch as many parachutes in their helmets as possible without using their hands or picking up fallen parachutes from the ground. As a special treat, there are a few capsules that, if caught, will win the housemates all the Burger King they can eat. In a much-needed victory, the HouseGuests win plenty of food for the week, including t-bone steaks, beer and Burger King!
7-23-03 -HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD COMPETITION: MAJORITY RULES
The HouseGuests are randomly broken into groups of three. One group at a time must take their place at a stand, which is equipped with a buzzer. Julie asks BIG BROTHER trivia questions, and the first person to buzz in gets the option to answer. The first person who answers correctly moves into the winner's circle, the other two are eliminated from contention, and the next group of three takes their place at the stand. The winner of each of three rounds face off in a final round, and the final winner is the new Head of Household! In the first round, Jun, Justin and Jack face off, and Justin moves on to the winner's circle. Next up are Alison, Erika and Dave, and Alison moves up when she is able to recall the color of Jee's duck from the "Duckball" competition. Finally, Robert, Nathan and Dana are up, and Dana quickly answers that there were ten casseroles in last week's Food Competition. Dana, Justin and Alison move onto the final round, and after Alison and Justin are disqualified for answering incorrectly, Dana wins, becoming the new Head of Household!
7-22-03 - POWER OF VETO COMPETITION: DUCKBALL
The HouseGuests head outside and discover that this week's Power of Veto Competition is none other than…Duckball! The backyard has been transformed into a peaceful pond setting, complete with a beautiful bridge and plenty of ducks to chuck. HouseGuests are given three ducks to toss in the pond, where a Veto symbol floats in the center. If your duck makes it into the Veto symbol, it's three points and a bonus duck. If the duck hits the top of the Veto symbol, the reward is two points; one point if the duck lands within the circle that surrounds the Veto symbol. Michelle--a nominee with a lot riding on this competition--is up first, and gets two points. Her fellow nominee Erika is up next, and is discouraged when she only earns one point. Dave and Justin prove they're master Duckballers, earning an impressive seven points each, which brings the game into sudden death. In the end, David wins, 9-6, and is given the Power of Veto.
