They might still be crying but not from having their egos stroked

HOUSEMATES COMPETE FOR ‘A PASS TO THE FINAL’

Big Brother gathers the Housemates in the Living Area.

Big Brother says, “Housemates, in the glass case before you sits one of Big Brother’s most valuable prizes, ‘A Pass to the Final'. Today, you will compete against each other in a series of rounds, and one of you will walk away with this coveted prize.”

“To be a true Big Brother Finalist, you can’t just survive your time in the House you have to have made an impact. In front of you are two bowls of white and red eyes, white eyeballs should be awarded to Housemates you feel have made the most positive impact on the House. Red eyeballs should be awarded to Housemates you feel have had the most negative impact.”

Each Housemate gets three eyes of each colour to hand out to the rest of the Housemates.

Jenny gives Emily one red eyeball. Jenny says, “Right, give Emily the first ball. She’s came in, Elsa and Marcus had it tough and that all because of things that was said between you and Farida about the outside.”

Jenny gives Emily a second red eyeball. Jenny says, “Emily, sorry. You’ve came in with a bit of outside noise, that’s the only thing I can give that that’s fair to.”

Jenny gives Emily a third eyeball. Jenny said, “And then I’ll just give the third one also, aye. Same reason.”

Marcus gives one eyeball to Jenny. Marcus says, “Right, this one’s brutal... certain situations regarding eyeball currency and phone calls home, I feel like…”

Jenny finishes his sentence, “Selfish.”

Elsa gives all three of her red eyeballs to Cameron. Elsa says, “I’m giving all three to Cameron because I haven’t really seen him doing much in the House…”

After the Housemates hand out their eyeballs, Big Brother says, “Housemates, each white eyeball is worth one point. Each red eyeball is worth… one point. Both white and red eyeballs will bring you one step closer to the final. Big Brother believed that any impact, good or bad, is better than no impact at all.”



IS THERE BEEF BETWEEN ELSA AND CAMERON?

Elsa and Marcus are in the Bedroom talking about the ‘A Pass to the Final’ task and Cameron.

Elsa says, “Do you know what it is for me? Cameron, he was fuming. Like don’t dish it out and not be able to take it back.”

Marcus says, “No, I know what you mean.”

Elsa says, “He’s sat there like [makes a disgusted face]. And he’s always ******ing giving out little jarring comments as well. Like I could’ve been so petty and when I was stood up I could’ve been like ‘here’s two for two or here’s three for three’. Do you know what I mean? So the beef is back on I think.”

Marcus says, “It’s the weirded beef I’ve ever experienced in my life. Famer Cam…”

Elsa says, “I’m not beefing him…”

Marcus says, “You are!”

Elsa says, “He’s beef me.”

Marcus says, “Yous are both beefing each other. It takes two to make a beef.”

Elsa says, “It's hard cause we was really good friends… I’m not trying to take it personal, like it’s just b*lls**t. B*lls**t, I’m done because it’s b*lls**t…”


THE FINAL HURDLE TO SECURING A PLACE AS A BIG BROTHER FINALIST

The Housemates are gathered in the Living Area for one final challenge with two Housemates still in the running for ‘A Pass to the Final’.

Big Brother says, “A Housemate worthy of the final is one who can prove themselves when it matters most. It’s time for The Interrogation. One by one you will be grilled on why you should be a Big Brother Finalist. Once both interviews are completed, the six eliminated Housemates will deliberate in private together to decide who they believe is the most deserving.”

One at a time, each of the two Housemates, who are in the running for the space as a Big Brother Finalist, are grilled by their fellow Housemates.

The Housemates ask a range of questions including: “Do you believe you would make it to the final without a pass to the final? What would you do if you were in our position? Who would you pick? and “Do you think you would spend the money responsibly as opposed to how your opponent would?”

After careful deliberation, one Housemate says, “The reason we have chosen the one of you we have chosen is that we felt one of you spoke with such sincerity, depth of feeling and genuine quality, you both spoke in a genuine way but one we felt had the edge. We have decided unanimously to award the pass to the final to…”

Which of the eight remaining Housemates will secure a pass straight to the final AND be safe in the upcoming DOUBLE backdoor eviction?

Well not necessarily because although yes they've given one housemate automatic finalist status but we still aren't fully clear on how the two leaving by the back door will be decided. That could be a flash vote.

[MTVN]

I don't like the other six choosing between the final two, just makes it a popularity contest. I think it'll be Teja or Elsa

[Ammi]

…yo listen up, it's a flashback in ma mind….the last week's sneak peek, an’ got it on ma grind….Elsa, Richard, Emily, they were on the BB scene…?…givin’ old school vibes, you know what I mean…?….

…mic drop…

They'll have to get enough points in the eye game first.
Teja will probably give Elsa all her white eyes. Marcus will surely give between one and three. But who else? I actually don't know who will give her any red eyes, especially as Jenny's given all three to Emily, unless Cameron takes "revenge".
Then Teja... Elsa will give between one and three. Marcus may give one. Who else? As for red eyes, again, no idea. I don't think Emily would dare.

True but I expect there'll be other challenges after the eye game. Unfortunately I think if Emily is in the final two they'll all just choose the other person claiming they deserve it more for being there longer

Unless the guilt is strong with them over the eye game. Emily seems really upset in the sneak peak, and a lot of people are giving her red eyes - Teja actually calls it a cop out as part of her reasoning.

I feel so bad for Emily, I'd love if she won now

Part of me feels the top three this year will be there because of sympathy and little else. For all the dislike of Ali and Marcelo last year at least they made it to the end through their own merits.

Saying that, my top three now would probably be Emily, Richard and Tate so... nearly guilty as charged.

You know for me it's really all I have, I don't like any of them much. I think probably Teja is my favourite "on merit"

Teja's fourth at the moment for me, fighting with Emily for third. Think the top two are locked in, unless one does something drastically bad. Or, indeed, evicted.

…honestly, looking at that little sneak peek…my heart breaks for Emily and so many of the housemates feeling ‘an ownership and more entitlement’ of the house in every aspect …no one should be made to feel like she obviously is feeling, nobody should be putting her in a corner in that way…I really want Emily to win, atm I’m feeling that she’s the most deserving there because she’s never contributed one bit to anyone else being made to feel how she’s being made to…she’s only ever tried to bring positivity but has been frozen out…

I like Richard but I don't think he's done a lot, Tate hhmmm there's just something I don't like about him

[Ammi]

…such a house of ‘groups’ and ‘clique-ing’ and bully/pack mentality…horrid…

[benthebbyapper]

I do feel for Emily as she hasn't done anything wrong. She's just the easy target because she's not been in the house as long as everyone else - she's just overthinks, gets anxious and panics, doesn't everyone! I just want her to get it because they would all be fuming (also because it would mean Tate and Marcus would get the boot, meaning that the showmance would be brought to an end..)

I have no issue with any housemate choosing her because they have any issue. If Marcus and Tate say she's jarring, for example, it's something she already knows and it's a valid reason to vote.

Teja's "cop out" excuse feels off though. She's probably trying to be kind but vote honestly.

…I’d be so happy for an Emily win…honestly, just to see he face and her smile in knowing that the public have given her their votes…
