01x16 - Episode 16

Post by bunniefuu »

I know Brittany's totally after your a*s.

[laughs] That's kind of a no brainer.

Duh.

And if you're like-- if you doubt that for a minute,

you're totally naive.

[theme music]

What the heck is Jordan doing?

Is she also outside?

Uh, she's sitting there by the pool.

Maybe you should go talk to her.

Is she OK?

Is she like, bummed out or something?

I'll go see.

Come and talk to me.

Stop doing chores.

I'm talking to you.

God, that's so irritating.

I'm talking to you.

See, I'm more comfortable talking to you.

You're doing chores.

I'm not doing chores.

There, I'm done.

Can you like, just sit and talk, and not

have a fluffy conversation?

It's difficult for me.

Why?

'Cuz it's--

'Cuz why?

'Cuz.

Is that why you're so comfortable around Brittany?

[laughs]

Why?

'Cuz it's just like, [vocalizing] [laughs]

I like it when it's easy on me.

I like to struggle.

We would fight.

I create struggles for myself.

I'm just saying we would never be compatible people, you know?

Like I said, we would make a great three, four

month boyfriend/girlfriend.

See, I'm not into that.

Yeah.

I'm not into like, three month thing.

See, and I can't even say anything

like that because, like I said, I'm new to this whole thing.

You're new to this dating thing?

Yeah.

Do you know what you want?

No.

Right now, yeah.

Actually, I'll take that back.

I just want to have a good time right now for awhile.

Mm-hm.

Whether that's with one person for the next two years,

or more than that.

Or one person for two months?

Yeah.

Mm-hm.

Doesn't matter how long it is.

I'm totally not in that stage at all.

I know.

You're like, over that.

I'm like, into depth, you know?

I was there.

That's what I was saying.

I was into depth for like, five years.

Mmm.

So you don't wanna be with someone

who's independent, strong willed, and has opinions.

No, I didn't say that.

I don't want someone that's gonna fall at every word

that I say, either.

Your attraction is like, almost all sexual.

Yeah.

Isn't it?

- Well-- - You know?

--that's a big part of it, yeah.

I mean, you seem to be a lot more personally attracted

to Brittany.

Why do you say that?

I talk to you as much as I talk to her.

Mmm, I don't think so.

You sure?

I don't think so.

In fact, I know so 'cuz we don't talk.

You and I don't talk. - We don't talk?

What are we doing right now?

Well, we're talking now, but this is probably the longest

we've ever talked, except for that one

night when we were both drunk.

No.

You know?

We just flirt a lot?

I don't even feel like I even--

Not even that?

- --see you during the day. - Yeah, I know.

That's what I was just thinking.

I was thinking, OK, if I do talk to Brittany,

it's because you're always somewhere doing something,

you know?

Yeah.

I think Brittany follows you around.

No.

I think she does.

I don't know, I just see different things.

It's kind of irritating to me for some reason.

But it seems like wherever you're at,

Brittany is like, five steps behind.

But why would that bug you?

I don't know.

I was just thinking about that.

It's like - It has no reason to bug you.

Why would I even care?

Yeah, exactly.

Why would you even care?

I guess it's because I'd like to talk to you,

and I feel like she's like, butting in.

Like, this whole cuddling thing.

Yeah, it's cute and everything.

But I'm like, that's bull-bull-[muted]..

I'm like, that's total bull-bull-[muted] because, OK,

look at you.

You're available.

[laughs] Look at me.

You're the best looking person in the house, you know?

It's like, why does she pick you?

Why doesn't she pick Curtis?

Why doesn't she pick George?

Why doesn't she pick Jamie, you know?

It's like, if it's all about cuddling, why--

What if it's not all about her?

Maybe I'm the only one willing.

I always said, Curtis, go.

Or, Mega, go.

Or-- no one else would go.

Maybe I'm the only one willing.

I know Brittany's totally after your a*s.

[laughs] That's kind of a no brainer.

Duh.

And if you're like-- if you doubt that for a minute,

you're totally naive.

[laughs] Like, say I did decide to have

some relationship in here.

Like, you know, whatever.

I'm not competing with anyone here.

Oh yeah.

I'm not gonna be in a love triangle

because I don't think Brittany's gonna back off at all,

you know?

And that's just--

I don't wanna have any part of that.

It's just-- that's not my style.

Well, I'll tell you this, though.

The dynamic of the whole place will change every two weeks.

Yeah.

Look, it's already changed.

Yeah.

Just one person.

Come on.

Let's go inside.

I gotta get my shoes.

These are Karen's little I love you shoes.

[laughs]

[laughs]

Eddie is still sleeping?

My goodness.

I don't know whether or not he feels too good sometimes.

You don't think so?

'Cuz he sleeps so much for a -year-old.

Mm-hm.

Hmm.

And I just don't know.

And I mean that sincerely.

No, no, no.

Yeah, I know.

Just being concerned about him.

Yeah, I understand that.

Because a person like him would not tell you.

If he wasn't feeling well.

OK?

Yeah.

And I know by talking to Eddie that he has to really

watch something with his--

when he had to do the chemotherapy,

it damaged something with his inside.

Mm-hm.

And he really has to watch like, what he takes

and the stuff like that there, and stuff like that.

So that's why I always just try to make sure he

gets enough food in him 'cuz--

I was gonna say, if he'll talk to anybody,

it's probably you, so.

Just try and watch out him as much as I can.

Yeah.

He's a good guy.

Yeah, I know.

Big George.

Smells good, George.

Oh, smells great.

Didn't mean to wake you, Eddie.

Sorry.

- No, smells great, man. - OK.

Yeah, I didn't mean to wake you.

- You OK? - Huh?

You OK?

Yeah.

You look pissed.

No, I'm fine.

Just got done cooking.

How you doing?

Good, good.

Is everybody still up?

Take your time.

Ain't nothing happening, man.

Yeah, no.

I'm waiting for everybody to die out on the Domino gung-h*,

and then I'll go in there and finish it up.

Ain't nothing happening, so.

Everyone's all, dominoes, dominoes!

Everything's cool.

Yeah, tonight.

NARRATOR: Alone in the yard, Karen

and Cassandra dish the dirt.

What in the world was going on last night?

I still-- I don't-- was I dreaming?

That's what I was gonna tell you.

I was gonna tell you about that. - Yeah, what?

And I couldn't this--

how would I begin?

OK, first of all, Brittany has feelings for Josh.

But she's really not sure if she does or if she doesn't.

OK, OK, OK.

And Jordan, when he was drunk that night,

she was like, coming onto him.

And she was like, rubbing his hair and stuff like that.

And then she took him back to his room, or whatever.

And they talked, or whatever.

And she knows that Brittany's spending a lot of time

with Josh.

Well, she told Brittany the other day

that if there's a guy that she's interested in

and some other person's interested,

she's gonna fight for him.

And so-- but Jordan told Brittany a few days ago

that she had thought that Josh was sexually

frustrated or something.

So I have no idea what it's all about.

I just think the sooner she leaves, the easier it'll be.

I really do.

You know, Karen, I don't have bad feelings about anybody.

But after that whole episode with Mega and the whole plot,

there's no way that Jordan was innocent in that,

you know that?

Uh-uh.

Not anymore.

Love your lipstick.

Oh, thank you.

You know, until Wednesday night, she

hated everybody in here except maybe you and Curtis, and--

Yeah.

So now all of a sudden, you know--

I think she's just playing on people right now.

It's really--

And I'm just worried 'cuz I don't want anybody to get hurt.

I don't want your feelings to get hurt.

I don't want Brittany's feelings to get hurt, you know?

I just hope whoever's watching isn't, you know,

mesmerized by her.

But you know, Karen?

She may not go.

I mean, the public may decide that they want her to stay.

So you need to get ready for that eventuality as well.

I hear you.

Wow, that would be hard for me to believe.

I miss really connecting with people.

And I don't know if it's because like, I can't, or--

I don't like being the fall guy for everything

that goes wrong around here.

[sighs] I'm just kind of--

I just wanna get away.

Yeah.

You know, 'cuz I'm like, constantly hearing

Brittany's like, yappiness.

And I'm like, I'm not always like,

giddy and happy and fluffy.

I need to have a one on one conversation

with someone about something that matters to me.

It seems like everyone here is just like, kinda--

they're just kinda like this happy family,

like everything's funny.

And yeah, I'm totally into that sometimes.

But other times, I'm just-- like right now.

I'm not like that right now, so I

just feel like I don't fit in.

And like--

Do you guys need help on the table?

You know, tomorrow I'm gonna be voted out again,

and then I'm gonna have to go through that again.

And I'm just like, why?

Why am I being--

I just feel picked on, you know?

Uh-huh.

Like, am I just supposed to be a different person?

I don't know.

I just don't--

I don't know.

I think you need to just sort of enjoy

yourself here a little more.

I mean, the couple days--

The way that I--

the way that I enjoy things is not the way

these people enjoy things.

If it were making me feel depressed,

why would I want to stay, one, or even

be grateful for staying?

Do you always run away from everything?

Do you always run away from everything

that makes you feel-- - No.

I don't run away, but I don't--

--maybe not happy all the time.

I don't run away, but I don't put myself

in situations where I have control over not

having to feel bad or whatever.

'Cuz feeling bad, I'm not afraid to feel

bad or depressed, you know?

And like, yeah, I definitely feel grateful to be here.

So if you don't run away from things,

and you want to be here, you need to look at this

as a learning experience.

And suck it up and deal.

NARRATOR: Which of these houseguests

will be nominated for banishment?

Find out tomorrow night on a live episode of Big Brother.

The houseguests are sure Josh is destined to become a teen idol.

You're talking about N SYNC and Backstreet Boys?

Mm-hm.

It's for our teenage fans.

Or, I mean, Josh's teenage fans.

[laughter]

For the "Teen Magazine" cover.

That's so true.

Hey, my daughter gets "Seventeen,"

guys, if your picture ever comes in my house.

That is so funny.

[interposing voices]

George's worst nightmare.

What?

George goes home.

Three months later--

Josh's picture.

Josh is on the cover of "Teen Magazine" in my house.

Josh is so dreamy.

[cooing]

Dad, I have to go meet Josh.

[interposing voices]

I'll say, he's in France right now.

[laughter]

Dad, did you really sleep next to Josh?

[laughter]

He talks in his sleep.

That's so cute.

I have to watch out for that French man.

Did you really see what you did, Josh?

Oh, that was a good one, Curtis.

I can see you on "Seventeen" magazine, guys.

You guys might've shared the same fork.

[laughter]

No, no.

I'm going to walk out of here with all his silverware

and send it to kids.

Josh, when you're done, give me a pair your shorts,

or something.

[laughter]

You're gonna start stealing his underwear.

NARRATOR: The houseguests continue

working on their week long challenge, The Domino Effect

And 's blue.

blue?

Mm-hm.

I don't want like, the specialness of it

to be lost in like, a mess forever.

[crickets chirping]

So what is that row right there?

This is still his row of .

He's just now getting it set up.

He's still assembling it.

OK.

.

Four blue, one black.

Four blue, one black.

[humming] Oh, Curtis is taking the risk.

[humming]

As long as you can-- as long as--

Whoever's doing the number counting can stay focused.

- Whichever one's in the fall. - Labor day.

Labor day.

Jordan, how are you doing?

You want me to take over?

- I think I'm good. - Got everything?

Yeah.

NARRATOR: Karen and Brittany confer about their nominations.

I know.

I'm having a hard time with tomorrow.

I keep toggling between two people.

It's like, I don't know what I should do.

Do you guys already know, or are you guys still--

Why do you really wanna banish George, though?

I don't--

[laughs]

It's OK.

[laughter]

You're not.

Neither one of you are my tackles, don't worry.

So do you guys already know, or are you guys

stressing about it, too?

We're stressing, but I think we know.

Did I say we?

I think I know.

I do know.

The one I was planning on banishing,

I've talked to a lot more the last couple of days.

Jordan?

[scoffs] No.

Don't be mean.

I'm sorry, that's the only person I know you've talked to.

Do what your heart desires.

I don't know what my heart desires.

Well, and you'll know it tomorrow at o'clock.

I know who you're voting for.

[laughs]

- I totally know. - Do you know for sure?

You think you do?

I-- I think I know.

The J's.

[laughter]

Ooh, boy, that was difficult.

How do you know, though, for sure that I haven't changed?

You haven't changed.

Because I did, I was vacillating

between Jamie or Curtis.

That's what my problem is.

I'm going with Mom.

[laughs] You guys are so funny.

Hey, we parents have to stick together, don't we?

Eddie is doing the same thing you guys are doing.

See, he told me that, but I don't even know.

I haven't talked to him today.

This is what I was just telling him.

I look at who does the most around here.

And you don't do a hell of a lot,

but you're good for our spirits.

But--

[laughs] I do stuff.

You do stuff, right.

Not a lot, though do I?

But listen to this.

Listen to this. - It's OK.

But I am good for your spirits.

You are good for our spirits.

You bring comedy to this place.

You definitely do.

And you bring out the worst in me.

[laughs] Maybe that's grounds for banishment as well.

[laughs]

No, no no.

Been-- you've been good.

A good friend, Eddie.

You, too, George.

You've been all right for me.

Either which way, I'm glad I met you.

Yeah, pleasure to meet you, George.

And I worry about you, man, you know?

[inaudible]

Oh, don't stress it, George.

Don't even stress it.

Because I know sometimes--

I know sometimes you don't feel good here.

I know that.

But I know you ain't getting the right type of food here.

No, I'm doing good on the food nowadays.

Since Megan's been gone, I've been doing real well.

That fat b*stard ain't been eating much.

So it's been working out well.

You know, if you could tell me more,

like what you really need to put in your body,

I could maybe work around some recipes, and--

Nah, don't even stress it.

'Cuz I'm pretty good at coming up with stuff.

Oh, I know you are.

I know you are, without a doubt.

You did good with that chili tonight.

That was really good. That was great.

But if you need-- and I know you know what you need.

I know.

So if you just kinda could tell me,

you know, what we can do with this.

I appreciate it.

Thank you.

And I'm doing good.

I stopped lifting for the week.

Now food's starting to come back around.

I started lifting yesterday and today.

And I'm eating right.

The tuna fish is there.

As long as I got tuna fish here, I'm doing OK.

Because the tuna fish as got protein in it,

and protein is what my body needs.

Like I say, I can always put away something a little extra

for you or something like that. - I know.

No, that's fine, George.

Thank you.

But you're a good-- no, like I say,

Eddie, no matter what happens, you're an all right dude.

Thanks George.

Thanks.

Tomorrow's the nominations.

We'll do sit-ups.

Gotta get back on that, seriously.

All right. that sounds good.

We're eating too much nowadays, so we'll get

back on sit-ups tomorrow.

That Curtis intimidates me sometimes, Eddie.

Curtis?

Yeah.

Why?

I notice when I play cards and that sometimes with him--

Yeah?

--he makes me sometimes feel like I'm stupid or something,

you know?

Yeah?

'Cuz I don't sit there, I don't analyze the cards

and everything else like that.

You know, to me it's just a stupid game.

Yeah, it is.

But to him, it's like he's performing open heart surgery.

You know what?

I'll sit down one of those games, I'll watch.

I'll talk to him if I see that.

Matter of fact, I'll kick his a*s.

Ah, don't worry it, Eddie.

I understand what you're saying, though.

No, I'd like to see this.

If that's the way he makes you feel,

then you should say something.

And if you don't wanna say nothing,

let me observe it and I'll say something.

I'll straighten his a*s out.

It's just a game.

No, exactly.

You should keep remembering-- you remember that.

Don't think of it any other way.

It's a card game, man.

It helps pass the time.

If he makes you feel stupid, I'll kick his a*s.

Don't worry about it.

I'll look into that.

Don't be intimidated by anybody in this house, George.

You're better than anybody, and you're definitely doing OK.

You been taking care of your family for years,

you've been doing all right, George.

You don't listen to anybody in here.

Anybody makes you feel-- - But you know what, Eddie?

What?

I think he looks down on me 'cuz I'm not--

like I say, I don't have the college

degree and stuff like that.

I could tell, Eddie.

You think so?

Yeah.

Huh.

Well, George, I'm gonna have to do something about that.

There ain't nothing to do, Eddie.

Just leave it alone.

Hey, man, your opportunity's tomorrow at

AM to do something about it.

Good point.

That's what I say.

My vote just went the other way.

Nah, don't think of it that way, Eddie.

I will, man.

What am I gonna do?

I'm gonna boot Jamie out of here?

She's innocent.

You know what I'm saying?

If you [muted] with a friend of mine, you [muted] with me.

So that's it, man.

My vote just changed.

He's gonna have to go sooner or later in my book.

So I ain't even stressing it, man.

Good night, George.

Good night, Eddie.
