Big Brother (UK): NATHAN EVICTED; HOUSEGUESTS CAGED The HouseGuests are playing the game hard, with the Three Stooges flexing their power, Jack and Erika trying to skate by, Jun and Alison floating from alliance to alliance, and Nathan scrambling for a deal that will keep him in the House. Yet despite all the different strategies, deals and alliances, it is clear that the Stooges control the game, for this week at least. In a live eviction, Nathan is evicted unanimously, and the remaining HouseGuests compete for the power in the House in an endurance-based Head of Household Competition that could last well into the night. HE SAID/SHE SAID: HOUSEGUESTS PLAY THE GOSSIP GAME It seems the Three Stooges (or, as they prefer, the Dream Team) have managed to stir up trouble in the House during their week in power, threatening to completely dismantle the original alliance of eight by nominating Nathan and Jack, all the while keeping "floaters" Jun and Alison tightly in their back pocket. Nominee Nate makes a "last ditch effort" to strike a deal with Justin in hopes of ensuring his safety, while Jack says he feels "secure" in the House. Meanwhile, alliance-hopping Alison says the Stooges' behavior is like "Revenge of the Nerds," but adds that she is letting them do her dirty work for her by getting rid of the strongest players. There's so much "he said/she said" going on in the House, it's tough to keep track of who actually said what! The HouseGuests are all talking trash as they try to play on each other's doubts and suspicions. Jun feeds Nate's growing doubts about Alison's loyalty by telling him she's not trustworthy, which causes Nate to confront Ali. This, of course, prompts Alison to confront Jun, who owns up to the accusations. Next, Ali tells Nathan that Justin called him a "baby." When Nathan calls out Justin on this, Justin and Jun inform him of Ali's constant disloyal words, and the confrontation ends with Nathan lashing out at Jun and calling her a "sneak." Later, Nathan tells Alison that she causes "nothing but grief" in the House. Whew! In his attempt to stay in the game, Nathan approaches Justin in the HoH Room, and expresses his regret that they have become rivals "over a girl" (i.e. Alison). Meanwhile, the aforementioned "girl" hovers at the HoH Room door, hoping to hear what Nathan is saying to HoH Justin. Nate suggests that he and Justin "team up," saying "I don't have an alliance with anyone." As Justin considers this tempting offer, Jack and Erika try to guess the Stooges' next move. But with so many deals being made, who can possibly predict the outcome? In the studio, host Julie Chen asks Jun how she feels the Stooges are handling their power in the House, and Jun replies that they treat their alliance like it's a "boys club" and tend to exclude her a bit. Julie then allows Erika to share her thoughts in case Jack is evicted, and Erika says: "He's like my dad in the House." Next, Julie allows Alison a few words in case her "bed mate" Nathan is evicted, and Ali tells Nathan that he's been her "best friend" and "brother" in the House. WELL, GOLLY! IT'S NATHAN'S FAMILY! From their home in Oklahoma, Nathan's family shares their thoughts on all the goings-on in the BIG BROTHER House. First, his mother explains that Nathan was raised with three girls, possibly as an explanation for Nathan's oft-mentioned "feminine side." She adds, however, that Nathan has always been a "stud" and a "pretty boy." He's quite at home with all the female attention in the House, just as he was outside of the House. But what does his family think of his relationship with Alison? Nate's mom says that their initial romantic sparks have turned into a "brother/sister" relationship, and she's disappointed that Ali "turned on him." Little sister Lindsay sticks up for big brother Nathan, saying Alison has "gone too far." Julie takes a minute to talk to current Head of Household Justin, and asks him how long he plans on honoring his alliance with Alison. He explains that he has felt obligated to "repay her" for not nominating him when she was Head of Household, but adds that he is aware that she is "playing both sides." As for the Three Stooges, Justin says "nothing" could break their alliance. THE CHICKS' BAG OF TRICKS Although the women are outnumbered in the game 3-5, there's more than enough estrogen in the House! Jun, "Queen of the Kitchen," Ali, "The Flirt," and Erika, "The Nurturer," each uses her feminine charms to further herself in the game. Jun hopes that her good cookin' distracts the other players from the fact that she's (in her own words) "a cute kind of sneaky person." Erika's strategy for BIG BROTHER is to play big sister and "listener" to her housemates, all the while quietly hatching plans against them. Alison takes a different approach, and says of her strategy that she uses her "feminine side" to "manipulate everybody." Her flirty flair catches some disapproval from the other fair maidens of the House, and Jun remarks that Ali's actions are "setting back the woman's movement 40 years." And although not one of the three gals will admit it to each other, they have each relied on the age-old practice of shedding a few tears to get what they want. Yet despite their flirting, cooking, crying and nurturing, Jun says that they are "cold hard competitors." Yea Girl Power! Since the votes are live tonight, Julie allows nominees Jack and Nathan to address the other HousGuests, and reminds them that they still have a chance to "change minds and sway votes." Nathan tells his housemates that it's been "a long five weeks," but hopes that they will know Nathan is a "loyal, trustworthy person." Jack is next to address the group, and tells them that he "understands" that evictions are "strategic and not personal," but adds that he would "like to stay." Will Jack and Nathan's final words change minds before the live vote? OAKIE OUSTED, 5-0 The HouseGuests cast their votes live in the Diary Room, and their decision is unanimous to evict Nathan. As he makes his exit, the mood is somber, and Nathan seems reluctant to make eye contact with his housemates. In the studio with Julie, Nathan says that he "made a run at it" and has "no regrets." How does he feel about Alison's vote against him? He says that she is a "smart player" and that he "can't take it personally." Julie allows Nathan to view his housemates' goodbye messages to him, in which Jun calls him "eye candy," while Jack says that Nathan was a "strong" and "competitive player." As for Ali, she says that she feels "responsible" for Nathan's predicament, and adds that she will miss him. Julie reminds Nathan that he will join Dana in the sequester house, and will return as a juror for the final episode. LAST ONE OUT IS HOH! Tonight's Head of Household Competition is an endurance test. The objective of "Steel Cage Match" is to work your way through all three cages. But there's a catch: each cage is smaller than the last. The first cage is big enough to hold all six competitors, but the second cage can only hold four, and the third and final cage can only hold two. In order for the group to advance to the next cage, two HouseGuests must leave each cage. The final two players will be in the third and final cage, and whoever stays in longest--without food, water, sleep--is the new Head of Household. The six HouseGuests climb into the small, uncomfortable cage, and as the show ends, Julie says goodnight to the HouseGuests, who have a long and tense night ahead of them.
