Tonight, on Big Brother, the houseguests are still reeling from Julie's twist that once one team member is evicted, the other gets a Golden Key, guaranteeing them safety until Top 10. It's clear that it's the new contestants against the returning ones but Porsche wants to team up with Brendon and Rachel. He thinks it's a stupid idea but hey, this early in the game, you gotta do whatever will get you far. Week 1 is not the time for being bold or defiant.

 

It's time for the signature "Who wants to see my HOH room?!" screech and feigned interest by houseguests. After that, the veterans strategize about pitting teams against one another and then Brenchel debates over Botox and plastic surgery.

 

Downstairs, Dominic tries to form an alliance with Cassi, Keith, and Lawon - one member from each pair. It's actually pretty smart... if it works. Of course, every Big Brother alliance has to have a stupid name and this one's is "The Regulators".

 

Evel Dick tries to pull in people of his own and targets Porsche, who jumps right on board. She offers to put up the newbies instead of the veterans if she wins HOH next week.

 

Rachel pops into the living room in a ridiculous, multicolored cow costume and that means it's time for a food competition. Adam immediately panics at the thought of no bacon. The dude needs to chill out. He's in a serious competition with Rachel for who can be the fakest when the cameras are on.

 

For the challenge, teams must head up to the "mooooon", gather up some milk into the padded costumes, and squeeze it into a group of jugs. Was anyone else disturbed by the images of people bouncing up and down on each other trying to get that milk out?

 

The blue team (Jeff, Jordan, Dick, and Daniele) fill up their jugs first and are the winners. If they couldn't beat the newbies, they should just head out the door now. The green team (Dominic, Adam, Porsche, and Keith) come in second which means the orange team (Cassi, Shelly, Kalia, and Lawon) are the Have Nots for the week. Their room looks like it's straight out of an insane asylum. Between that, the fact that the lights don't turn off, cold showers, and slop, it's gonna be rough!

 

After the competition, Dick turns his attention and efforts into pulling Adam in. If he's going to align with the veterans, they're going to want his vote as well as throwing things like the POV. If that's not a deal with the devil, what is?

 

When all is said and done at the Nomination Ceremony, Porsche and Keith are nominated for eviction.  Rachel calls it "purely strategic gameplay".  Well, she IS telling the truth!
