The House is up in arms over the deal Jee made to win the Power of Veto, which left the rest of the House on the PB&J diet for one week. Guaranteed to have complete control over the nominations as both Head of Household and POV holder, Jee nominates opposing alliance members Jack and Erika. In his third win in a week, Jee wins a special Competition that awards him McDonald's food for five days, further infuriating his housemates. As expected, he keeps his nominations intact, but will secret talks between Jun, Alison and Erika shake things up in the House?
WHAT WOULD DARWIN DO?
While the rest of the House is upset with Jee for taking a bribe in order to win the Power of Veto, Jee is upset with Jun for questioning his motives in front of the other HouseGuests. Jee says that Jun was intentionally making him "look like a target," but Robert tries to assuage Jee's fears by reminding him that "everyone's a target" at this point in the game. Jee finally confronts Jun in the HoH Room, and Jun tells him to "calm down," and assures him that she questioned him in front of the other HouseGuests in order to "defend" him publicly. Jun continues, telling him that "everyone is talking" behind his back since his double win as HoH and Power of Veto holder. Despite these words, Jee is not deterred from winning in the future, saying it's "survival of the fittest."
Still upset with Jun as the nominations approach, Jee considers nominating her, saying she is "digging her own grave." However, in the Nomination Ceremony, Jack and Erika find themselves on the chopping block. Jee tells them that his decision is "not based on revenge" for Erika's nominations last week, but adds that it is the "best strategic move" for himself and his alliance. And although Jack and Erika both say they will not campaign against each other, it seems as though they are both willing to do what they can to stay in the House another week.
THEY'RE BAAAAAACK! GNOME-A-PHOBICS BEWARE!
As always, the House is buzzing after the nominations. Jee and Robert approach Alison (whom they now consider the third Stooge), and tell her to vote Erika out, with Robert calling Erika the "strongest player." But girl power hits the House in full force, as the remaining femmes unite to fight. Jun, Erika and Alison join forces, knowing that with so few players left in the House, three is a powerful number. This week, Alison and Jun are two thirds of the vote, and the two realize that--for this week--they control the eviction. Alison tells Erika she is safe, and the three women make plans for Jee's eviction the following week. As they say, hell hath no fury…
Remember those adorable (or if you're a gnome-a-phobe, TERRIFYING) gnomes from season three? They're back, and so is gnome-lover Marcellas! The HouseGuests put on coveralls and head to the backyard, where they find hundreds of gnomes. Marcellas's voice comes over the speakers and warns them that "the gnomes have returned and they're mad as hell." As host of the Competition, Marcellas explains the game to the HouseGuests. Inside some of the Gnomes are golden tickets. But the gnomes must be smashed to smithereens in order to find them. The first HouseGuest to find three golden tickets and hit the buzzer wins a McDonald's meal a day for five days. The winner also gets to choose a HouseGuest to join him/her each of the five days. However, some of the gnomes have black tickets inside; find a black ticket, and you're disqualified.
Perhaps letting out some aggression from the pressures in the House, the HouseGuests apply their hammers to the defenseless gnomes. Robert, Jun, Alison and Erika each get black flags, disqualifying them from winning, and Jee and Jack are neck and neck with two golden tickets each. Jee is first to get three golden tickets, winning the McDonald's food, and the third competition in a week.
