Okay, last night was a nice little jolt of Red Bull in a rather Chamomile Tea season thus far. Andrew's speech was stupid and desperate, but SOOOOOO entertaining. I think he knew he was going home and it was a last-ditch effort, but as Julie pointed out in an awesomely snarky manner, why didn't he use his knowledge of the secret goings-on in the house to his advantage during the week instead of looking like a huge untrustworthy tattle-tale snitch
right before everyone votes?!?! Bad strategy for Andrew, but fun for us to watch! Which leads me to episode highlight #1: Britney and Rachel's reaction in the Diary Room hallway during the voting. HEE!! And that shrill little cat fight with Kristen? How fun was that? Not only were we reminded that Kristen lives in the house, but that she can also be a loud stanky bitchface.
Matt's wife. I...um...wow. I can only say, they seem so perfect for each other. Eye for an eye...tooth for a...AAACK!
I concur on the Ragan quote. Hilarious! And watching the choices being made for contestants during the HOH competition was particularly interesting, especially after Andrew shed a bit of light on some of the house guests. Which leads me to episode highlight #2: Rachel choosing the contestants after winning a round against Brendon...
Julie: "Rachel, please pick the next two contestants."
Rachel: (distractedly) "...oh, yeah...um...
HAYDEN AND KRISTEN!!"
I nearly sneezed Coke Zero on my new coffee table. And watching Rachel suddenly realize she was winning round after round created a rather surprisingly exciting air of suspense. When she finally won and the Tool Brigade ONCE AGAIN had their worst fears realized, I was a bit light-headed from the rather unexpectedness of the season getting somewhat fun. Now, if only Kathy, Britney and Ragan would join forces with Rachel and Brendon, we could actually have a show here, people!
