So, as crude as their remarks may be, I can’t help by empathize with their feelings. Britney, mocking Rachel, said: “I needed an IV of tequila just to stay alive. It was so crazy.” Her sarcasm is delicious.

Also Sunday, we learned Hayden has this strange habit of sticking his forefingers in the gap between his two front teeth whenever he talks to (or about) Kristen. I don’t know whether it’s a nervous reaction or what, but Kristen doesn’t seem to mind it and seems to be falling hard for the pretty boy. Shame.

The houseguests retreated outside for the have-have not competition to an area polluted with trash cans and graffiti. Their task was to separate into groups and tape a houseguest securely to a platform.

Once finished, the platform – rotating like a dentist’s chair – became about perpendicular to the ground. Houseguests on the ground watergunned the two houseguests on the platform. First houseguest to fall lost.

Ragan, who admitted to being used to getting tied up to walls on the weekends, said, “This is just a Saturday night to me, guys. This is nothing.” And yet, he was the first to fall.

From the onset, it looked like Britney would take the crown. Enzo, the first to take note, said, “Look at that, Britney’s a mummy right now. … We did such a great job with Britney. She’s wrapped up there like King Tut.”

But like in the premiere, when Britney fell from a slippery hot dog and injured herself, Britney’s body slowly inched downward over time, causing her to nearly get strangled by the tape. After about an hour of play, Britney was forced to pull out so she didn’t, you know, die.

Britney: “The last thing I want to do is either black out or die hanging on a wall for some freakin’ slop.”

Okay, a) who is designing these games and b) if they haven’t been fired already, why haven’t they been fired?! Two competitions in as many weeks have either severely injured or nearly killed their competitors. That ain’t right.

The have nots learned that their menu options for the week would be slop and fish sticks. Without shame, Enzo (“Ooo, we got fish sticks! Thank you, America! Thank you, Big Brother. Yes!”) was as excited about the fish sticks as a home cooked meal from mama.

At the nomination ceremony, Rachel nominated Britney and Monet for eviction. Monet because she won $10,000 in the premiere and never made an effort to get to know Rachel, and Britney by association.

On Wednesday’s show, Rachel’s main concern was whether or not her speech at the nominations ceremony was okay. Brendon, her puppet, told her she did great.

Britney, as expected, was upset. But, she decided to let her emotions get the best of her in an unexpected place: the have-not room. For a good amount of time, Britney cried and cried while curled up on a chaise lounge with jars of maggots and other oddities scattered around the room.
