'Big Brother 10': friend vs. friend vs. onions
Patrick Gutierrez watched BB 10, and here's his recap:
With Keesha and Libra on the block, it's friend vs. friend going into the veto competition. Keesha seemed more upset that April's key was pulled out first than the fact that she was nominated. Libra promised not to campaign against Keesha while Michelle reassured Keesha that Libra is her target.
April, Memphis and Jerry were selected to play in the veto competition. While April's alliance seemed to be on board with getting Libra out, Jerry secretly wanted Dan out. He went up to Michelle's room and confided in her his belief that Dan is America's Player.
With the tension level still high, Dan and Memphis tried to lighten things up a bit by storming into Libra's bedroom while the girls were asleep and giving them a pillow-whacking.
The contestants had three chopping tools to use: a mallet, a knife and a dicer. April was filling both bins, while Memphis went straight for the mystery prize. Jerry wanted the veto so he could back-door Dan, so you would think he would only use the veto bin.
They revealed the mystery-prize results first. Everyone had onions in their mystery-prize bins except Libra. Memphis and April easily won the mystery prizes. Memphis won a custom-made onion necklace that he must wear for 24 hours. April's prize was much better. She won five designer outfits to take home.
The veto boxes were weighed, and Michelle was in first place at 31 pounds with Jerry and Libra's boxes yet to be weighed. Libra took the lead by one pound, but Jerry swooped in and won the veto with 36 pounds. He immediately began targeting Dan, trying to get Michelle to put him up as a replacement if he used the veto.
Meanwhile, the house was treated to a lavish feast courtesy of the last food competition. Everyone took turns giving a toast as heated rivalries were put aside for the moment. Dan tearfully apologized to Jerry and Keesha, and April tried to patch things up. Libra pulled Ollie aside and broke down in front of him because of what he said to her during her fight with April. She told him Keesha orchestrated Jessie's ouster.
After the dinner, Michelle set out to turn Libra and Keesha against each other. She had April tell Keesha about the comment Libra made during dinner that Keesha was only being nice to April because she wanted her designer clothes. Michelle brought Libra up to the HOH room where Libra defended herself. It was an innocent comment said in jest, Libra said, but the group took it and ran with it. Then the tables turned on Keesha when she admitted she was behind Jessie's eviction. She stormed out of the room, and Michelle followed after her. When they got to Keesha's room, she laid it all out for Michelle how April is getting away with everything and how furious she is about it.
At the veto ceremony, Jerry continued his attack on Dan but, in the end, decided not to use the POV. Libra and Keesha remained on the block, and Libra vowed to not go down without a fight …
Thoughts: Jerry is ridiculous. He talks a big game, but the only way he can win a competition is if there are other things to play for.
Keesha and April really can't stand each other. They try to be nice, but the negative feelings between them are evident whenever they are in a room together. I understand Keesha's frustration that April is skating by without accepting any responsibility for anything. After all, she got the Jessie ball rolling when she told Keesha and Libra that he was the one talking behind their back.
If I were Dan, I'd promise April's alliance his vote this week to put to rest any lingering suspicions that he is America's Player …
