Big Brother Australia 10, Week 12 Recap

Naughtiest Housemates to the DR
Tim and Tahan think they are the naughtiest, and everyone agreed, so, upon Big Brother's request, they went to the Diary Room. Big Brother tells them that he is going to be working part time over the weekend to play golf and spend time with Mrs. Big Brother. It will be their job to be House Wardens. They get megaphones, badges and notebooks. They are to watch everyone and make sure they are following the rules.

They are also responsible for handing out chores to the rest of the housemates. Ed and Boog are to clean the purple bedroom. Mikkayla and Madaline are to clean the windows in the gym.

Radio Show: BBFM

Selected housemates will be selected to run various radio shows. They need to keep the conversation going, and if there is any dead air, they will lose.

Tim, Drew and Mikkayla are up first with some headlines. They discuss the food crisis since the housemates failed their food challenge. They also talk about the divide in the house. Tim does a very good job asking the questions and Drew and Mikkayla did a good job of being honest. When they were done, they were all so proud of themselves for doing such a good job and for making it fun.

Of course there was some fallout afterwards when some of the others were informed about what they talked about on their show.Things got so much worse when Jade talked to Mikkayla about Boog and then Mikkayla went back to Tim about what was said. It started out as a slight confrontation, and then it BLEW UP! Mikkayla was sort of acting childish, and she should have just dropped it. But then she went to Boog, and Tim told Mikkayla to "Grow up!" Boog could really care less what was said, but Mikkayla was so upset that Tim reported what was said and that he was stirring the pot. Boog said she didn't really care what was said and that she doesn't really take things personally...even though she can tell that Mikkayla really doesn't like her that much. Mikkayla didn't realize that she was being rude, they hugged it out, Boog leaves the room and Mikkayla bursts into tears. I really think Tim is in the right here, and I think this could cause problems for Mikkayla with the public vote. She didn't make herself look very good, even if she sort of had a point. She blew everything so out of proportion. Tim is a popular player, and if you go against him, people aren't going to like that too much.

Later, Madaline, Jade and Tahan debate law cases.

Drew and Boog do a radio psychic show, with Boog as the psychic.

Tim, Ed and Mikkayla discuss relationships...specifically Ed and Jade. He says they are definitely not boyfriend/girlfriend, but they are definitely very comfortable with each other. Ed is not on "farting" terms with her yet.

Madaline, Tahan and Boog get to host Girl Talk.

Jade even gets a chance to do a news program in Italian.

Unfortunately, they failed their task! I'm shocked because the clips we saw were all really good.

Drew Loses it in the DR
He got so agitated and aggravated after their dinner. He says that everything that everyone thinks that everything they have ever heard is a fact. He thinks part of the problem is that they are on staples. Poor guy...I sure hope this isn't due to Tully leaving...surely she didn't calm him that much.

Walking Drew
Drew loves The Walking Dead, and Big Brother told him if he will walk until further notice, he will be able to watch the Season 4 premiere. The problem is, he can't stop walking for anything! Not even to get dressed or to eat! And, he's not allowed to let anyone know that anything is going on. He actually got quite good. It looked a bit strange, but he kept moving! Mr. Clooney helped. After a couple hours of non-stop walking, Big Brother let him stop and he won his challenge!

Drew chooses Tim to share his prize. Drew brought him into the DR and told him what they were doing. Tim said he loved the show, and Drew said he hoped so because they had never discussed the show before. I loved their discussion during the show.

Final Showdown
The winner of the Final Showdown, will be the Grand Champion. Big Brother also announces that there will no longer be a Nomination Super Power and there are no more advantages. The winner will win $5,000 and a night in the Presidential Suite with the person of their choice.

Boog and Tim made it to the final round, and it's Tim for the win!!!!! He is the Grand Champion!

He chooses Ed to go to the Presidential Suite. He surprisingly chooses Ed. Poor Ed made a fatal error in an earlier round, so Tim paid it forward.

I loved his reaction to winning in the DR. He was so shocked he won. He got a trophy and he laid out his 2 medals out on the chair and just had a good laugh because he really isn't athletic and coordinated.

Pack It Up!
Big Brother gives the housemates 5 minutes to pack all of their worldly possessions into their suitcases and take them outside. It turns out that it is a Family Dinner challenge. They are all very hungry, so they are willing to do just about anything to win the luxury meal. This is a bidding challenge, where they will be bidding with their belongings. They each have to put the things that mean the most to them into a bin. Big Brother has to deem the items worthy by determining if the items are really important to them. After each of them put their items in the bin, Big Brother asks a few of the housemates for a couple more items, and they were big ones, like Tim's skeleton onesie! Again, Big Brother said he needs more items. Tahan finally gives up her beloved hairdryer that she BEGGED for for the entire game. Nathan only won it for her a couple weeks ago...bummer. However, they passed the task.

Drew Gets Pampered
When Tim and Ed go into the Presidential Suite, Drew is the only guy left. The girls decide to pamper him. They wax his butt! Oh my gosh! Then he got a facial and a hand massage, and a bath. They even painted his nails for him. That was just hilarious!

Tim's Phobia
Tim has a salamander phobia and they found one and put it in a jar to scare him. He ran screaming into the pool to get away! It's funny because he loves bugs and even had a praying mantis on his face a few days ago. Finally, he decides to let Boog put it on him. He did pretty good at first, but then he jumped and screamed.

The Mayo Caper
The failure in the shopping task, meant that there was only $5 per person for the budget. Tahan wanted more mayonnaise because Tuna is dry and she knew everyone would want it. They didn't listen. She put up a big fuss, and Boog and Mikkayla got annoyed, so they decided to take the remaining mayo (that everyone told Tahan she could have) and hide it. After they found where Tahan had hidden it, they took it out of the jar and hid it, leaving the empty jar. I can't believe we didn't get to see what happened when Tahan found the empty jar.

Eviction Results
48.3% - Tahan
26.7% - Boog
25% - Mikkayla

Wow, it was so close between Mikkayla and Boog, and Tahan had nearly half the votes! Mikkayla's 9 lives are finally up. I feel so sorry for Mikkayla. She had a really hard time leaving the house. She was crying so hard that she was hyperventilating. She didn't want to leave Mr. Clooney behind. I think he will really miss her. She chooses Ed to be Mr. Clooney's new caregiver. I don't know if that was an obvious choice, because I don't think I've ever seen him do anything with him.

New Sleeping Arrangements
Big Brother tells the housemates that the male housemates must sleep in the purple room and the girls must sleep in the gold room. They are allowed to visit any time day or night, but they can't have any sleepovers. Guess who wasn't too happy about this? Yes, Jade. Also making a switch is Mr. Clooney. He is used to sleeping with Mikkayla in the gold room. Since Ed will be in the purple room, so will Mr. Clooney. Let's just say, Ed isn't going to get much sleep, because Mr. Clooney can't make up his mind where he wants to sleep: on or off the bed.

Nominations
This week all of the housemates will make their nominations face to face! Get ready for some major awkwardness! They will all nominate in the Diary Room...like normal. HOWEVER, minutes later, everyone will see each other's nominations! That's even worse than I thought! I thought they would just have to say who they were nominating right in the room together, but they have no idea that who they are voting for, they will then have to show to everyone.

There is no hiding now, it's all coming out now!

The nominees are:
Jade -9
Boog - 8
Madaline - 8

Funny how it is all girls for the 2nd straight week. I can't believe Tim is safe another week! And Tahan is safe, that is quite a change!

Nomination Fallout
Some people have some explaining to do! Jade is NOT happy that Drew and Tim nominated her. They were her "friends"...or so she thought. She said she couldn't bring herself to nominate either of them while there were others in the house, but they nominated her and some not-so-valid reasons.

They decided to have a family lunch to discuss what happened, and bring everything out in the open. But like Tim said...it's already out in the open! At this point, I think this will only make things worse.  I think Jade has a right to feel betrayed, but her consistent harping on the issue only makes her look worse. She might just do what Mikkayla did last week, and get herself voted out. I think it's going to be a close call between Madaline and Jade.
