Mediocre Gatsby

And on your birthday! Well, at the start, anyway.

"Who's going to sit up all night and watch people stand in a room?" Felicia scoffs, and NOW SHE'S DEAD TO ME.

That was so interesting. Now she's talking about going to bed in the scramble room last night and her bed being blocked by Hisam with "a barricade of pillows." He said "It's for your own safety": - apparently he tosses and turns all night and has ended up on her bed before. She's been fun tonight: they all have. A stark contrast to the venom of the quitters.

Now Felicia thinks that Bowie isn't a DJ because she has no rhythm. Say it with me: "She's lying through her teeth." The hamsters still in the competition think that maybe 2 hours have gone by. (It's been over 5, right? RIGHT?) Now they're talking about strategy for hand placement on the buttons.

Izzy got called to the DR so Cirie went to talk to Jared. She said he knows she loves him and trusts him. He was lying in bed, all covered up like the big baby he is. She said, "You know I'm only telling you this because it makes a difference." She said that he's the only person she trusts 100%. It was hard for me to hear what she was talking about. She got a bit louder and said that she knows he can't remember everything, so he needs to tell her as soon as he hears something. She said "Give me a hug" and he met her about a quarter of the way and she did the rest. She left him in bed with a bandanna over his face. Felicia and Cirie think that Red and Cameron's friendship, the way they talk about doing things after the show, is just as dangerous as a showmance. I'm over Mama Cirie protecting Jared.

I think they're shut in that box with a lid though, aren't they?

A camera switched to Cirie finishing up reading the riot act, in a calm voice, to Jared. He said "okay" but then got up and walked away. Izzy said something I couldn't quite catch about Jared always asking "why?" Cirie said that he has to do better.

Blue just keeps switching hands so she can put the other hand between her legs. They're speculating on whether any of the snakes are fake.

Oh gosh, me too. I looked up Cory and he is 21!

Izzy and Cirie were talking about someone who keeps hiding information from them and just because Cirie said she didn't want to confront him, could she have been talking about Jared? eta: Yes, Jared. Cirie is telling him that he has to keep them informed of what he hears, even if he thinks he can "shut down" whatever he hears about.

I came into a conversation between Felicia and the Dropouts; Jared was talking about Hisam and Cirie said if they'd had the conversation earlier, Hisam would not be gone. These people. Jared's not worried about Cory because Cory apparently gave him an "I got you" look when he dropped out. Felicia thinks that after Red, Cameron, and Bowie, Cory needs to be their target. She thinks he's lying about being a 21-year-old college student. He's lying through his teeth. What?

Yeah I have the sound on but the lights were bugging me.

Red and Jag have talked all week about the other one coming for them, so I expect them to try the hardest.

Yeah, that was ... odd.

If you really need to pee, wouldn't now be the time to drop out? You get to leave right away. Otherwise you drop out AND you have to wait for two more people.

NO CHIPS. Please!

*I* knew what you meant!

No! WHY?

Bowie's contortions finally got to me, and I am out with Cirie and Jared. But without being safe for the whole season.

Climax. As if.

I'm waiting til Izzy gets to the part of the song in her head where she inadvertently claps.

I thought, "isn't Jared drinking right now? Won't we find out in a minute?" It looks like he's drinking beer - could he possibly be doing that when he can't go pee?

FELICIA STOP EATING CHIPS FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

Maybe so they can see the snakes.

ack there's nothing worse than hearing people eat on the feeds.
