Big Brother 9 Week 4 Recaps/Spoilers
March 9, 2008 by Chris
Filed under Big Brother 9
Its the time we’ve all(or at least I) have been waiting for, the splitting up of the couples. Since I’m pretty late with my recaps this week I’m gonna cover everything that happened this week from the eviction, new HOH, Nominations, Veto winner and the replacement nomination so lets get things started.
It was a sad moment for Allison last Wednesday when she was evicted from the Big Brother house 2-0. Then she was shocked like the rest of us when she was told the couples would be broken up and now the rest of the house would be voting out either her or Ryan. Thats one of those moments when you think you might have chance to stay but maybe, just maybe the house was voting you out because they didn’t like your partner. Well needless to say that was the case the only problem was that the house was voting out Ryan because they hated Allison and with them no longer teamed up they were free to vote out Allison 6-0. Being evicted twice in one night must really suck, but its not as bad as being evicted three times ain’t that right KAAAYSAAAAR!
As everyone attempted to decompress from their recent forced divorces Ryan won the HOH competition in typical Big Brother “I was on the block the previous week” fashion and with that season 9 of Big Brother officially began.
Right off the bat Sheila got as far away from Adam as possible while Matt continued to sleep in the same bed with Natalie despite saying he would get away from her the first chance he got.
Spoilers Below!!
Ryan and Matt have been hanging out all week which isn’t out of the norm since they would hang out and work out together before now. But of course there are people in the house who failed to notice their friendship up until now and naturally Matt is “sucking up” to Ryan because he’s afraid of being nominated. With that James, Josh, Chelsia, Sharon, and Sheila decided to get Matt nominated. The only problem is that they decided that AFTER Ryan nominated Sharon and Chelsia for eviction.
Once Chelsia won the power of veto they decided to try and get Matt back doored using scare tactics. Once Sheila found out about the back dooring plan she began distancing themselves from the group because she could see their plan wasn’t going to work.
I’ve always wondered why people try and get the HOH to nominate the people their closest to for eviction with the threat of the whole house targeting them the following week. The only time I remember one of those threats working was when Boogie threatened Chicken George with the coup de’ ta and got him to get rid of Howie.
While Josh and crew were making threats and trashing people left and right they failed to realize that their alliance had broken down just as quickly as it formed and nobody but a select few were still talking about Matt getting back doored. Instead the topic of the rest of the house turned to back dooring James. As with most things in the Big Brother house if the whole house is whispering about something it usually happens. So earlier today at the veto ceremony James was blindsided when Ryan put him on the block as the replacement nominee.
Josh and Chelsia decided they were going to be jerks to the rest of the house and Josh has even decided to try and get punched in the face by Matt to try and send him home that way. As of right now they haven’t really started “going off” on people but if anything really good happens I’ll be sure to update and let you all know.
