Episode BBAU 2020 - Episode 12 Discussion (30 June)

[Columbo]

The footage of Daniel with his girlfriend was very touching I thought. Showed a sensitive side to this most alpha of leaders.

 

[Spectator O.O]

Daniel comes across as very self deprecating.

To me that's fake. He knows he is arrogant and comes across that way so he acts self-depricating but it's designed.

It's kind of telling that I couldn't even remember who was evicted last night. So boring. Hopefully the Covid 19 stuff will be fun viewing.

Doesn't seem fake to me, and I'm a world class spotter of fakeness.

I don’t really like the way these guys talk to BB. Have some RESPECT newbies!

It really goes both ways. This years' BB is a bit pathetic, doing reverse kisses to housemates, telling housemates that Chad is "hot" and generally not coming across as a boss.

I think Marissa does deserve to win, but am not holding my breath. She's been at a disadvantage from day one in being the oldest woman by a country mile. She's been put up for eviction more times than anyone else left in the house. She was Ang's number one allie and friend in the house so is obviously not a dickhead, and seems smart and reasonable, capable of critical thought, and she made the correct assessment on that stupid bro deal that brought Angela undone. She's showed real kindness to others; I appreciated those heartfelt words of consolation to Hannah on her eviction. She really pushes herself in challenges and holds up against hideous men half her age who are allegedly athletes, etc. She's the true Survivor of this year's badly edited Survivor in a Box. But without reading any spoilers, I think one can safely assume it will be a hideous male who wins.

Agreed 100%. Shame she hasn’t been getting as much air time.

I don't understand how being the oldest woman in the house and being put up for eviction loads of times mean you deserve to win big brother.

It worked for Terri.
*shudder*

Her age could of easily put her in the position to be considered an outcast, but she’s made effort to fit in with the group. She’s formed good, solid, trustworthy relationships, hence being saved from those evictions she was put up. And she’s also suprised me that she knows what she s doing by realising the deal with Matt was not a good one and voting Ange out and more stuff but i can’t remember.

For me, it's most about having the best social morals and thus the most deserving.

Manufactured by the producers to justify a floating turd winning the series...

So in one of two of the weekly deleted scenes that Ch 7 can afford to share with us, Chad breaks the rules by sleeping.

How is it that in the episode (4?) where they had to catch the ball that went along the tracks, Kieran was asleep, and it was daytime, and somehow that was OK?

That was ok because it fitted their narrative/challenge.

Not sure where to put this so I'll run with it here:

Tuesday: One gravity-defying challenge and two unbreakable bonds but the big power sits with a little package.

I assume this translates as Sarah winning the Nominations Challenge. Unless there is some power twist literally delivered in a little package?

 

[timmy]

Unless there is some power twist literally delivered in a little package?

Maybe I am overthinking it, but maybe there are two chambers of four people for the water challenge after all? At a guess, they need to unlock the gold padlocks to release a key from each one, then use those keys to unlock the bigger padlock which has a cannister attached. The cannister could be the little package. Assuming there is no eviction on Sunday and one on Monday there'll be eight HMs left for Tuesday's episode.

I'm hoping the canister contains tear gas.

Please stop getting ahead of me regarding initiating the discussion of future episodes.

I considered starting a Tuesday thread for this!

Maybe mods will move my Tuesday-related posts to it when Tuesday comes around.

 

[the Theorist]

There is nothing wrong with mentioning a future EPG, @timmydownawell.

@Gayspie just has a complex when it comes to episode threads, haha!

How has she shown she has the best social morals?

Or the producers realised how awesome the Alpha alliance is and arranged a little surprise for Daniel?

I don't think Marissa does, nor is she the most deserving.

How has she shown she has the best social morals?

I don't think she has, she has shown to be a temper head like Casey, which many people have insulted Casey for. So she definitely isn't up there and she doesn't have the best morals, as she's very similar to Casey and if people are insulting Casey, then insult Marissa too.
