Tonight on Big Brother 8 we return to the adventure known as the Jenius of Jenuine Jen (I had to grit my teeth to type that one out). As disgusted as I was to see Jen win last week I knew she would unlock a lot drama for us and sure enough she did. From the Big Brother drinking game (which we were one step ahead on) to her pillow talk scene with Dick (is this guy in danger, or what?) it’s been a barrel of laughs, mostly at Jen’s expense. I can’t imagine we’ll get anything less than that tonight either as we pick back up with the Power of Veto competition and possible replacement nominations.

The show opens with Jen rationalizing her nominations from the Diary Room. I’d have to agree with most the rest of the guests that it was a load of crap. Jen puts off some heavily negative vibes, so it’s pretty hypocritical of her, but hey that’s Jen. I wouldn’t expect it any other way from this girl and that’s what makes her so frustratingly entertaining. Almost as entertaining is what a pushover Nick turns into when he gets near Daniele. For such a tough guy he acts like an 8 year old with his crush on her. These two get a little alone time in the bedroom and Nick quickly discloses his Mrs. Robinson alliance to her. He explains he felt it was important to make this reveal because he [insert choke up moments as he tells her he's going to cry] is starting to develop feelings for her. In exchange Daniele lets him in on her secret that she’s still 20. Well that seems pretty even of an exchange, right?

It’s time for our next round of America’s Player as it looks like we’ve tasked Eric to climb into bed with… Joe! Oh geez. Nice America. As Dick would explain, I think Eric would rather climb into a meat grinder. Sure enough, Eric is up for the challenge and begins his night stumble towards the potentially diseased bed of Joe. Somehow I don’t think we’re paying Eric enough for this crap! Not only does he have to get into bed with Joe, but he has to stay there until Joe kicks him out. Hmm, these America’s Player things are kinda funny, but I hope they start to up the ante a little more for Eric’s sake and ours. Regardless, Eric is dedicated to the cause and gets himself up late into the night to tackle this next task. He wanders in and finds Joe’s bed, but there’s already someone else in there with him! It looks like Jessica, but it’s tough to tell. So this is going to make things a little tougher as there really isn’t much wiggle room to start with here. Eric tries his best and climbs up at the foot of the bed and does his best cat impression by curling around Joe’s legs. Unfortunately this doesn’t do much more than stir Joe who seems just fine with having a mystery man climb on in. Sadly, Eric gives up and slumps back to his own bed. Mission failed for America’s Player.

Wow. It is time for the PoV competition already and it’s only 15 minutes into the episode. That’s usually held on to for the last half or third of the episode. Well now we know why they rushed to this part: Drama! The three players: Jen, Dick, and Daniele; each make their selections and we have the other three players: Mike, Amber, and Joe. Following the selection process Jen corners Dustin and Amber and threatens both of them that if they throw the game or win the PoV and use it that she will put the other of them up (ie. Amber wins and uses it, Dustin gets nominated). This pushes the already red, puffy faced Amber over the edge. Jen then goes and makes a similar threat to Mike and Joe. Joe basically laughs in her face and asks her who exactly is he close with in the house? Who could she possibly put up to threaten him? He’s got a point. Jumping back to Amber who has now moved to the storage room we see her relaying the prior Jen-events to Nick, Daniele, and Jameka. Amber, of course, goes into tear mode, which sends Daniele into anger mode. I expected this reaction to come from Dick, not Daniele. She confronts Jen in the kitchen about her tactics:

“I know what you did… It’s not about me, it’s about Amber and it sucks what you’re doing to her because she’s a good person. And don’t look at me with that little smug look on your face.”

Jen obliviously deflects the accusations from Daniele as well as though from Joe and even more from Dick. Second on the list for “needs attention” is Joe who gets things going again by verbally smacking Mike for contributing his thoughts that Jen was just being “directive.” Oh boy it doesn’t stop there either. Zach comments, “she [Amber] is a very emotional person.” Jameka overhears him and tries to correct Zach by saying that Amber isn’t emotional, she’s empathetic. I think they’re both wrong. Amber is “fragile”. Fragile like a patient on Jimmy Tango’s Fat Buster plan (watch it to appreciate it).

Trying to smooth things over, in a very fake way, Jen corners Amber again and starts into her “I didn’t mean to upset you” routine. Suddenly the music changes as Evil Dick returns for seconds. He immediately lashes into her on how she’s not really sorry for anything because this is exactly what she wanted it all to be. Really just more of the same conversations/fights here so let’s move on to the Power of Veto competition. The six house guests ready themselves and step outside to a winter wonderland, kinda. The game tonight is curling (read Wiki’s curling entry) and the prizes are under the Christmas tree. Only catch is, it’s “cut throat Christmas” so when someone is eliminated and picks a prize, the next person can take it away from them. That means this comes down to making sure you’re the last person left so you can snatch the PoV for yourself.

Round 1 ends with Joe being the furthest from the red line and so he is eliminated. Joe selects a present that contains a “Slop Pass“. Round 2 eliminates Jen after she manages to really screw up an easy chance to eliminate Dick. Dick had a terrible “push” that time but Jen managed to suck just that much worse. Well I’m relieved. Jen’s “present” is a bright red unitard that she has to wear for rest of the week. Now this sounds terrible to me, but Jen is thrilled to death and begs for no one to take it from her. No problem, wacko. Round 3 eliminates Mike and he selects a box containing a “Date Night” for him and a guest of his choice to enjoy a dinner in the backyard.

At this point there is only Dick, Daniele, and Amber. Things are looking very good for the nominees as I think everyone knows Amber wants that PoV like the plague. Round 4 eliminates Dick and he wins a plasma TV! Not as good as the PoV, but not too bad either. Now it’s just Amber and Daniele. Amber better start throwing this thing soon! Sure enough, Amber barely makes it half way down the lane and so once again Daniele is the Power of Veto winner! Good for her. I’m glad she was able to step up when it mattered most. Daniele might not be my favorite character so far this season, but she’s certainly entertaining and that’s all I can really ask for here. I can’t imagine she won’t use it in the upcoming PoV ceremony.

Unfortunately we’re treated to Jen parading around the Big Brother house in her bright red unitard. Joe quickly proclaims, “OMG! Jen, I think they’re going to have to let you wear underwear!” Uggh. Are you kidding? Jen’s walking around in a skin tight outfit with no underwear? Good gravy. Joe sidebars in the Diary Room, “way to go Big Brother. Your punishments blow.” From there Jen goes on to accessorize and even starts doing high kicks to which Eric comments, “I’ve seen it all.” Disgusting.

The other “punishment” dealt out in the PoV competition was to Amber who had to select a house guest to be chained to for 24 hours. Hilarious. How appropriate to give Amber the gift of bondage as she feels she has a special bond with everyone in the house. Amber selects Kail. Unfortunately the experiment was cut short when Kail promptly murdered Amber for her selection. Just kidding. But from their shared Diary Room session you can see that Kail is thrilled about the situation. Had it been me there, I would have chosen Janelle. Wait, what? I can’t do that. Oh well.

As we prepare for the inevitable use of the PoV the house scrambles to flood Jen’s vacant mind with nomination possibilities. First up is Eric who is anxious for a second attempt at that Jessica nomination prize money which he failed at on Sunday. It goes even worse this time as Jen just gets up and walks off mid conversation. From there on pretty much everyone is pushing Joe on her. Yeah, yeah, nominate Joe! This pushes Jen to the edge and she declares, “I almost don’t want to put that person up just cause everyone wants me to put him up.” Smart move dumbass. Perhaps Jen pulled that strategy from her book, “How to make people hate you”.

Holy cow, we’re finally to the ceremony. Dick gives a brief plead to Daniele to save him, nice tough guy. Daniele then explains how stressful this whole situation is on her as everyone is pressuring her but she’s made her decision. Sure enough, Daniele uses the PoV on herself, smart girl. Once Jen finishes clamoring about she announces her replacement nomination to be Joe. Woohoo! Just like we needed to save Evil Dick from danger! Considering Joe’s key was the last to be pulled and Jen’s explanation that this was intentional I’m not surprised at all by this turn of events. I’m thinking even Gonorrhea Joe saw this coming.
