-lmaooooo Nicole’s still complaining and Rachel’s in the DR like “wtf how did I just cause drama by wanting to use a token? Just bc Nicole’s nominated doesn’t mean we’re not allowed to straighten our hair! Why is that an issue?!?!?!?! IS NICOLE GETTING MARRIED OR SOMETHING, IS THAT WHY WE ALL NEED TO HAVE FRIZZY HAIR EXCEPT FOR HER?!?!?!”

-ew and Darnell did gullible and naive and Rex did immature and ANNOYING these lads need to look in the ****ing mirror!!!!!
- and then Rachel and Kat started singing I Will Survive and Rex and Darnell just grumble under their breaths about how they're attention-seeking

[Macie Lightfoot]

No Sara used that word and Rachel was soooooo inquisitive because she never heard that word before

[Macie Lightfoot]

DR Uncut:
-ew @ Darnell and Mo and Rex asking Rachel these gross sexual questions like if she’s ever given her boyfriend a BJ
-aww but Rachel feels less two-faced this week bc she could discuss nominations and tell Lisa that she’s nominated her a few times <3 such a good-hearted soul, hoping everyone makes it to the final and REFUSING to play those games about “who do you think will win x”

[Macie Lightfoot]

Day 88:
-Mikey thinks Rachel was the best Head of House lol this episode had so many random Mikey/Rachel interactions that were sweet even though he definitely wants to bone her
-ew and then they're putting fake tan on Darnell's bum and Rachel's shielding her eyes with a pillow. Of course Rex called her ****ing pathetic queen of chastity!

[Macie Lightfoot]

Day 89:
-Rachel having a big discussion with BB in the DR about which Disney character she would be <3333 she chose Belle for her human choice and Simba for her animal choice!
-Rex randomly decides to call Rachel out for turning on him bc she nominated him (even though he had already nominated her once before!) and she was just like “well I didn’t like the person you were while Nicole was here I’m entitled to that” and he just doubled down on everything as usual and randomly called her out for trying to please everyone?!?! He was just like ‘all you do is agree with everybody” (which doesn’t even make sense in the context of this argument) and Rachel just replied “that’s why I nominated you…and that’s why we’re having this conversation…x” <33333333 Rex’s weave is all over the living area floor

[Macie Lightfoot]

Day 90:
-the Rachel impersonations <33333 my favorite is Mikey running around the house yelling CHICKPEA in his high-pitched voice while throwing chickpeas on the floor and angering everyone Rachel of course is so lovely, telling everyone that she would clean up the chickpeas so they should all help out! and then Rex started bitching about Mikey Wikey and Rachel was just all “I don’t think Rachel would say that ”
-omg and then a heartfelt Rachel DR about how she was supposed to be the one evicted tonight bc Kathreya was the true winner and then she was sobbing while packing up Kat’s suitcase friendship goals

[Macie Lightfoot]

Day 91:
-Rachel crying when she woke up she had a sweet DR about how it’s tough without Kat and Mo but she still has four other great people and she’s going to miss EVERYTHING in the house from the Diary Room and the Tasks to the cameras and the cutlery!
-Rachel saying that she misses even the people who didn’t like her just sums up the entire Rachel experience. Queen of generosity

[Macie Lightfoot]

Day 92/93/FINALE:
-Rachel calling out a sulking and moping Rex in the final HLs and asking him why he needs alcohol to have fun QUEEN of staying above the influence!
-omg and then her winning moment is everything I remembered it to be. Coming out with Mikey’s cup, being disturbed by Lisa’s theory that she had a crush on Mario, giving Nicole a jaw-dropped expression when she heard that she thought she was using Kat to win the money, laughing off Luke’s jealousy as the crowd literally chants “Jealous! Jealous!”, omg it was a ****ing experience literally THE perfect way to cap off this thread and the entire season, it was divine

[Macie Lightfoot]

Big Mouth:
-Most tragic revelation was that Davina *LOST* Mikey's cup </3
-but I did get a lot of life from Rachel saying that she doesn't have any intention of getting off of the fence

[y.winter]

The Rationale is done

The cup

[Macie Lightfoot]
