Big Brother US Series 8 – Week 2
Dick and Danielle: Father Daughter Duo To Face Eviction on BB
Jul 27, 2007
After a depressing 10 to 1 vote, Carol is sent home packing despite her efforts to keep herself in the house. Sick of Amber’s constant tears, viewers and people in the house were most likely hoping she’d get the boot out there!
More interestingly in this episode (before the eviction ceremony) we finally get a glimpse into the drama behind Danielle and Dick. Via video, Dick’s mother reveals to America that part of the problem between this father and daughter duo stems from Dick having Danielle when he was a mere 23 years old. Nevertheless, Dick is determined to save their relationship and tearfully reveals his feelings about her in the diary room.
Meanwhile, Eric (America’s Player) is challenged to reveal a personal story about himself to Kail. He completes the task with flying colours, even adding some tears to the mix to make his story seem more believable. Completely unaware she has been set up, Kail truly believes Eric confided in her because she is a mother and is compassionate and nurturing.
New HOH
The House Guests compete for their second Head of Household (HOH) competition. Much to everyone’s dismay, Jen wins HOH. The House Guests surprise viewers when they all choose to distance themselves from her until she makes a decision of who to nominate for elimination.
While Dick and the others are disappointed with Jen’s win, Kail is super happy that she was nice to Jen as she is pretty sure that will make her safe…or will it?
In the meantime Danielle is convinced she will be nominated because Jen is obviously jealous of all the attention Nick gives to her.
Proving just how bratty and selfish she really is, Jen’s not impressed when her HOH room is revealed. Why is she not impressed? Because some of the pictures on the wall are of her without makeup! That’s right! Jen can’t bear to look at her makeup less face so she takes down the one picture of her and her mother.
While everyone is trying to influence Jen’s decision for eviction nominees, Eric is given the task from America to try to swade her vote towards Jessica. However he loses the task when Jen decides to put both Danielle and Dick on the block for eviction.
Power of Veto: Father or Daughter
Winning POV two weeks in a row, Danielle is faced with a tough decision however in the end she decides to save herself using the POV to take herself off the block. Leaving a vacancy in one of the elimination seats, Danielle st4eps down from the hot seat and turn the spotlight onto Jen who has to put up a replacement. Shocking everyone, Jen nominates Joe. Unfortunately America’s player Eric lost this challenge.
Has Dick ruffled enough feathers to get him kicked out of the Big Brother house or will Joe and his catty ways get him the boot?
