Lab Rats Shopping Task (contains spoilers)
 
It’s shopping task time again and to guarantee a good feed, housemates are going to have to get experimental.

http://i46.tinypic.com/xpts.jpg

Housemates woke up to discover strange equipment in the garden, and all the food missing. What is Big Brother up to?

Youtube video


Big Brother has set a brainy challenge for our bunch with the three most intelligent housemates required to be scientists while the remaining 12 will be lab rats.

Housemates picked the three cleverest bods - Lydia, Benedict and Luke A - a decision they all managed to agree on.

Scott is offended at not being picked as one of the three most intelligent housemates, and is baffled that Luke A was picked ahead of him

Youtube video


Whether this was a wise choice remains to be seen. The scientists will try and predict the outcome of a series of experiments undertaken by the rats.

This is an epic two day task. Will the housemates be successful and if so, will they manage to calculate the food budget correctly this time?


Experiment 1: Food Wheel

A human size hamster wheel is installed in the garden. To earn their breakfast, lunch and dinner the ‘Rat Housemates’ must walk in the wheel. Walking in the wheel will reward them with cheese based foods and rewards girls with nice food and boys with nasty ‘rat feed.’ But will the Rats figure this out?

Luke S is the first to try out the food wheel, but fails spectacularly. Lauren is on hand to show him how it's done.

This is a task of 4 parts:

Coming up......


Experiment 2: Eyes on The Prize.

The housemates will in turn go to the large task room, wearing special eye tracking glasses they must continually stare at a prize on a plinth in the middle of the room. Big Brother will introduce things to distract them such as:

A 17ft snake carried by 4/5 handlers around the perimeter of the room
A Justin Bieber lookalike singing Baby
A burlesque dancer performing a routine
A group of Superfans taking pictures and fawning over the housemate


Experiment 3: Carrot or Stick.

Two housemates will take part in a simple game in the garden in which they have to throw a foam ball through a hole in a board. Each time one housemate successfully gets the ball in the hole they will be rewarded with a cheer from the cheer leading squad and offered nice refreshments. For the other housemates, whenever they miss a shot they will be punished with a bucket of gunge poured over their head. Who will fare better? The rewarded housemates or the punished?

The winner of the Carrot or Stick experiment will get a winner’s party in the Diary Room to celebrate their victory. However, this is when the fourth experiment is set to take place.


Experiment 4: Conformity

Whilst the winner of the Carrot or Stick task is in the Diary Room, Big Brother will give the rest of the Rat Housemates an earpiece to wear but must keep it a secret. When the winning Rat Housemate returns from the Diary Room, they will be called into the Large Task Room. Sitting on chairs, they all face a swirling hypnotic spiral and listening to a soothing voice of a hypnotist. Big Brother will tell the housemates to pretend that they have been hypnotised. Then, the Scientists whom will be in another room, will contact each housemate via the earpiece and tell them instructions for acting hypnotised. The test will see if the non-earpieced goes along with the rest of the group or refuses to follow the crowd.

In preparation for tomorrow’s Impossible Maze task, one Rat housemate will spend the night in the Large Task Room. Whilst they’re sleeping, Big Brother will play in soothing, relaxing music with recorded dialogue over the top saying things like “You are a smart intelligent rat”, “You are a successful rat” and so on. However, will it help them in tomorrow’s task?

I had posted that a few minutes ago!

Love this task! :joker:

Sounds brilliant :laugh2:

The laboratory conditions are getting to the rats, and they're turning on the scientists. Ashleigh and Caroline have their own theories as to what's going on...

thanks MrL, this sounds great. I hope they dedicate plenty of time to it in the highlights.

Daniel R 19-06-2012 02:08 PM

Sounds amazing!

Gillian-73 19-06-2012 02:28 PM

This sounds great! Can't wait to see whether whoever doesn't have an earpiece pretends to be hypnotised!

BigBrotherfan4ever 19-06-2012 02:56 PM

This task sounds greats.

Cherie 19-06-2012 03:02 PM

Tickles me when Twitter Robot refers to the HMs as Rats...its a great task.

Mrluvaluva 19-06-2012 03:04 PM

Becky took a turn on the wheel and almost lost her knickers #bbuklive :laugh:

The Big Brother Lab is fully operational and while the rats earn cheese based food rations by treading the wheel in the garden, the scientists are tucking into a continental breakfast as they look on from the task room.

What the rats don’t now is that girls earn the group tasty treats by rotating the wheel but the boys’ efforts will be rewarded with nasty meals.

First up Deana failed to read the instructions and attempted to walk backwards. Since then the girls have taken the lead with Lauren typically excelling and earning the group two boxes of ham and cheese croissants.

The smug scientists have predicted the outcome of the experiment and are unable to let their new found positions as the group’s smart guys go to their heads.

Lydia said, “This is what they do. They don’t listen to instructions. Don’t get on Deana. Go and sunbathe or something. Deana likes to get involved because she likes to be on the camera.”

“I don’t want them standing there watching because that’s too many brains. They might work it out.”

Ever the teacher Benedict was being particularly stern when observing Adam in action.

He said, “Please don’t give them any food while he doesn’t have his hat on Big Brother. He is breaking the rules.

“Look at all the time they are wasting. It doesn’t make any sense.”

Can the rats work out the wheel’s secret? Will the outcome of this experiment be the creation of a new dynamic in the House?

Big Brother has kindly provided sandwiches for the labrats, but Lauren isn't happy with the selection provided.

Experiment 2: Eyes on The Prize.

Labrat Ashleigh must keep her eyes on the prize if she is to win some time with her dog. But will she manage to avoid Justin Bieber's gaze? NB. Might not be the real Justin Bieber.

Becky has also won time with her dog so far.

For Shievonne's Eyes on the Prize task, a seven-foot python is unleashed in the task.

Scott's up next. Can he avoid looking at his superfans and win a party?

Jords 19-06-2012 05:19 PM

Looking good :amazed:

Mrluvaluva 19-06-2012 07:41 PM

As part of this week's task Luke S must continually stare at his prize (protein shakes and weights) in order to win them. However Big Brother has a surprise in store for our Northern lad, can Luke keep his eye on the prize or will he be distracted?

In the lab rat task Scott has to avoid distraction from an energetic bunch of super fans, will he keep his eyes on the prize?

Youtube video


Lol @ someone actually dropping their trousers.

Scott's success in avoiding the whoops of appreciation by fans wearing Scott t-shirts and wielding Scott banners earned him a PARTY FOR ONE IN THE DIARY ROOM! Let the good times roll.

Roll they did. Cheerleaders waving shiny foil pom-poms surrounded the 21-year-old as he sipped a frosted red drink and generally had all the fun a man can have in a confined space by himself (short of doing a Benedict).

But this being Big Brother, prizes often come with a sting. During his absence, the scientists and rats gathered by the sofas so that Benedict could explain the third and next phase of the Lab Rats task. The rats are to follow instructions being fed to them through earpieces while pretending to Scott that they are hypnotised. The object of the game is to see if Scott will conform to this apparent mass hysteria.

Poor Scott. As he left the Diary Room wiping party string off his rat head, he had no idea what he was walking into...

The third task is upon us. When Scott emerges from the Diary Room his conformist tendencies shall be tested.

Will the scientists and the labrats succeeded in pulling the wool over Scott's eyes?

Big Brother's elves delivered a Chinese takeaway earlier this evening, along with booze and cigarettes.

Everyone's pretty happy although there's a dash of angry political chat from, who else, Benedict.

As prep for tomorrow's Impossible Maze task, Caroline will be spending the night in the large task room.

Sweet dreams Caz.

Everything you want in life is just a whisker's width away.....

And while Scott enjoyed his private party in the Diary Room, the housemates were told that they would attend a fake hypnotism sequence and where they would pretend to be hypnotised. Scott would be the only housemate would not know that this was fake.
