"I cut him!" Tahan's reaction just makes it better, haha.
That's second to "I'm in the pool" but that's been linked already.

Tim comforts Ben (sorry for the low quality, doesn't seem to be on YouTube, unless you go looking for the fragment in the episode). Whether you're in the fake or not fake camp, I think that was a genuine moment for him. It'd be hard to be lifted out of life into this intense, fun experience with all these great people, and to know that it can't last forever and you have to go back. Getting a taste of some other life only makes the contrast hurt more.
I can see how the contrast makes the fear of returning to a lonely life greater.
But, this season of this show, shows possibilities of a richer life for everyone if they open themselves to new experiences and new people with curiosity and enthusiasm.
At least that is what I've learned from it and why I love these housemates - and all their failings and arguments and sometimes incredibly irritating behavior-just makes it all the sweeter.
I am sure that Ben saw that side of life in the big brother house too.
