Big Brother 9, Live Feeds, Elimination and 1st Round of HoH Comp

Author LauraBelle

Before Eviction Topic: The HGs are just as confused as we are over what exactly is happening and when. They seem to think they are taping the show tonight to be shown on BB:AD, when in reality they taped the boring stuff from the morning, such as drying hair, picking out outfits, etc. Exciting! I’m sure the Showtime people were thrilled with it when they were waiting for a final four eviction and first round of final three comp. We were all wondering how much if any of the eviction and comp we would get to see and when the feeds would return, before the comp, after, tomorrow, after tomorrow’s show, after Wednesday’s show, etc.

Before Eviction Strategy Talks: Sharon asks Sheila what Ryan is going to do, but she obviously has no idea and says she hasn’t talked to him. She explains she let go of all that last night, realizing she had no control over it. Sharon is told by Sheila that she has a better chance than Sheila being kept by Adam.

After the HGs do a run-through of the evening, they got a glimpse of the endurance comp, something with water and hanging. A few hours after seeing it, Adam corners Ryan in the kitchen and says because of the comp, he thinks Sharon should go instead of Sheila. He explains she’s due, and looking at it, he knows she’s capable, where Sheila isn’t. He promises to Ryan that if he agrees to take out Sharon, after Sheila falls, Adam will fall, letting Ryan win the first round, giving him a 50% chance of final 2, and it will be Adam’s hands with Sharon’s blood, losing Team Pink’s jury votes for him.

Always one to consider side deals (Josh, James, Sharon …), Ryan agrees, telling Adam he needs to trust his gut. Adam wants Ryan to pretend to get pissed off at him for keeping Sheila so that Sharon will take that to the jury house with her, helping Ryan. When Ryan goes into the bathroom, Adam pumps his fist in the air, seemingly really excited. I was hoping he’d find a way to keep Sheila, and hoping that he would remain true to her. The fist pump sure makes it seem like he was trying to find a way to work it his way, and that he wasn’t just concerned over the comp.

Before Eviction Quotes: “I’m a pro at packing now!” — Sharon, as Ryan adds he doesn’t miss it, being he used to do it every other week as well.

“I can’t take another story. Help me!” — Sheila, walking in the bathroom after Sharon launched into a story about a friend.

Before Eviction Fun Stuff: Sheila tells a story that her son won a costume contest when he was little, but the judges thought he was dressed as a bird, when she had really dressed him up like Kenny from South Park.

Looking to date Baller? Ryan thinks his age requirements in a potential date include the range 18-97, but Adam jokes only a driver’s license is required.

Before Eviction Ominous Moment: Sharon is in the boat room with Sheila and puts her shoes on the bed. Sheila tells her it’s bad luck to have shoes on the bed, and mentions Natalie did it as well.

Eviction and Comp: After four hours of trivia on the feeds, us feedwatchers weren’t sure when we’d get them back. With fears they’d be gone until late Tuesday or Wednesday, we were excited to get them back four hours later, but let me tell ya, they were a long four hours. We see Sheila right away and hear her talking to “you guys,” so we know that Sharon was indeed voted out.

The comp did indeed involve water, and it had something to do with boogie boards. Sheila fell off pretty quickly, and Adam came down as promised, giving Ryan the win for round one of the final HoH. This leaves Adam and Sheila to face off against each other in part two.

The guys think Sheila did the right thing a few weeks back getting rid of Natalie, saying they’d rather be with Sheila right now. Sheila tells them Natalie would have kicked their asses in the comp, which Ryan doubts, but Sheila explains Natalie was on that disco ball for five hours.

Ryan thinks with him and Adam in final 2, the vote will be 4-3 and the deciding vote will be Matt. Adam will have the “campaign queen” on his side, Ryan thinks, but Adam explains she’ll only be there for one day to get it done. Adam tells Ryan he’s his best chance to win, not Big Sheila.

After Eviction Past Strategy Talk: Ryan says Alex was stupid to not campaign, and Sheila defends him. This goes in to them saying the whole Sexy 6 alliance was stupid, as they talk of how jealous Alex was of Parker, and how he nominated him, even though he was from his own alliance. They also think it was stupid for Matt and Natalie not to use the PoV on Parker and Jen.

After Eviction Fun Stuff: After locking the HGs up inside the past two days and in the boat room through a good hunk of this day, BB is apparently taking pity on them, leaving them with a craft. Sheila makes a bracelet for her son, Ryan makes one for Jen, and Adam makes one for his mom. Sheila figures that’s why he puts up with her, because she reminds him of his mom, but he says his mom is worse than Sheila. He thinks his mom would tell Sheila to give him a good smack. Ryan gets tired of making his bracelet for Jen and jokes about making one for Cameron Diaz.

Sheila explains her behavior the past few days, saying she has Pre-Menstrual Dysphoric Disorder and can’t take hormones because of a family history of breast cancer. She explains this is why older women don’t get this far on BB normally as they can’t handle the stress along with menopause. She even apologizes to Adam for treating him so badly. Well, then I better get my ass in gear and get on the show pretty soon.

Quote of the day: “I kept your dream alive, Sheila … for both of us.” — Adam, hugging Sheila after the elimination and comp.

My Thoughts: I’ll think I’ll be good with the outcome here, not matter how it turns out. Sheila doesn’t have much of a chance to make it to final 2, but that’s okay. I’d rather it be her and Adam in final 2, but Ryan and Adam would be good too. If Adam wins tonight, then wins again tomorrow, it’ll be hard for him to choose between Ryan and Sheila. If he throws the third comp, he’s pretty much guaranteed to go anyway, and he then doesn’t have to ever boot Sheila. This, from the man who doesn’t like blood on his hands.
