Hi Storm. Bye Storm. I didn't know Storm existed before this episode. I don't recall seeing him before.

"The Family" has to be one of the oddest alliances I've seen on reality TV.

Dr Will's hair is so awful.

Yay for Dickson!

I would be very interested in hearing Dickson's reasoning for getting rid of Storm.

Unpopular opinion, but at this point I'm kind of hoping Dr. Will wins it all...

They hinted at the reason at the beginning of the episode: to break up his showmance with Maria-Grace.  As Will said, showmances are borderline-unbreakable alliances.  So Dickson wanted to break up that twosome.

Although now he's put a target on his, David, and Parvati's backs in the process.

I haven't watched Dr. Will's BB seasons, but I like him on this show and agree with @seacliffsal.   He's much more interesting than anyone else, with Parvati, David, and Phillip being my second tier.   I hope that he makes it far in the game.  

By the end of the night I thought that Dickson had -- as we say down in my neck of the woods -- gotten too big for his britches.   I agree that The Family is in trouble.   But I think Dickson could easily go sooner rather than later because a)  his braggadocio at the temple (understandable, but dude, it is still a game of luck and a soupçon of nerve near the end); b) whether or not he and Storm were friends, it appears that everyone was shocked when Dickson eliminated the Cloudy One. Given the uncertainty of the game, they may want to get rid of someone they can't read; c) Based on his behavior at the temple and his lack of empathy for the Hapless Luke in episode 1, I can't help but believe that Dickson is going to go too far with his post-Temple celebration ("I'm THE MAN!") and annoy the other contestants.  

Which is sad, because I was feeling an Aron like empathy for Dickson when he talked about his father -- who might hang with Dickson if he had a few million dollars?

Dr. Will was voted as the number one threat.  I don't think he's a threat.  I think he's a arrogant SOB who hasn't proven a thing yet - on this show at least.  I've never watched a minute of Big Brother.  If I was on the show, I'd vote him off just because he's a PITA.

I heard Dickson say he's going after the 'big guys' because he couldn't win against them in a physical challenge.  Seems like there were more strategic targets, but whatever.
