Live Feed - Wednesday, July 11, Evening.

• The challenge must be over, because Holly is wearing her team outfit, talking to Mike and Kevin.  They’re talking about how Mike intends to interview and terrify any man who wants to go out with Holly.
• Mike says that he’s not long for the house.  Holly’s team must have lost, because she suggests that she’s probably going out this week.
• She says that anything weird Ori asks them to do after she leaves is a tweet from her.
• Kevin tells her that she can expose the other players for what they are.  Awesome?  Cooler than them?
• Mike calls them snobs.  They start talking about how they forged a natural alliance, because they like each other, and the others formed a natural alliance because they’re assholes.  Oh, Mike, I wish I could show you a mirror.
• Kevin thinks Jeffrey, Erica, and Gene are getting sick of Joy.  
• Kevin was apparently on Holly’s team, because he’s talking about having another five days in limbo.  Isn’t he immune?  I’m pretty sure he is.
• Oh, good!  Andrea is here!  She’s also wearing red, so she was on Holly’s team.
• We cut to the bedroom, where I see Erica and Joy wearing yellow.  Jeffrey is wearing normal clothes, so that doesn’t tell me anything. 
• They’re talking about Gene.  I guess Erica is wondering if the viewers told him to play both sides, or to remain a lone wolf.
• They’re not sure they can count on his vote.
• Joy is worried that he may have told Andrea that he’s not going to vote for her.
• Mike says something about Andrea exposing everyone else.  She’s crying.  It’s unfortunate that we don’t know why.
• Kevin tells her that being emotional is for the other team. Eff you, Kevin.
• Andrea claims that she’s only emotional because she misses her family.  Hey - why don’t you go home and spend some time with them?  Wouldn’t that be awesome for absolutely everyone involved?
• Mike asks why Evil keeps prevailing over good.  It’s because you have a warped sense of what’s evil.
• Kevin tells Andrea that her family wants her to be there, and the last thing they want is for her to come home.  If Andrea was in my family, the last thing I would would is for her to come home, too.
• In the other room, Stephanie says that they fully expect whoever goes against Holly to come back, so whoever it is gets a free week where they can’t be Team Captain.  She is also wearing normal clothes, so I don’t know which team it is.
• Erica says that limbo is awful, and doesn’t want to go back.
• I guess they’re talking about asking Kevin to agree to limbo for another week as not Team Captain.  Kevin is the least likely person to become Team Captain.  They’d have a better shot with Andrea.
• Erica points out that being Team Captain doesn’t mean you’re hated.  They really should agree to send Andrea.  That’s the best idea.  Especially because, if they do, I can vote against her.  
• Stephanie doesn’t think anyone will agree to go into limbo.
• Isn’t Kevin already immune this week?  Stephanie’s point is that voting Andrea into limbo would be a gift for her.  Jeffrey and Steph both tell them that they will go with the others, but would prefer to vote Andrea.
• Let’s see - Mike, Kevin, and Andrea are all going to vote the same.  If Gene votes with them, Holly is the tie-breaker.  So, Stephanie, Joy, Erica, and Jeffrey have to agree to take the power out of Gene’s hands.
• It sounds like they’re going to wait for the results of the #Fanswers to make a decision.  Answer to tell them to send Andrea to limbo!!!
• Erica also says that she’ll do what the majority decides, but she thinks it’ll look bad to send Kevin to limbo twice.  She also doesn’t think the viewers will like if we presume that Andrea will be Team Captain next week.  I assume Mike will be one of them again - I wouldn’t be surprised if Joy were the other, whether Andrea winds up immune or not.
• Back to Team Wackadoodle, Mike is calling the others frauds. He’s talking about how he exposed them.  Or, maybe, they’re not terrible people and the 5 people watching simply don’t view them the same way you do.  Have you ever considered that?  Of course not.
• Gene sneaks up to the glass (really obviously, though), then pretends to be listening.  “Oh!  You saw me!”  Ha!
• Blah blah blah, plotting plotting nothing interesting.  Just rehashing their options.
• We learn that Jeffrey was on the winning team, because he tells Mike that he can’t vote to send him to limbo.  Let him waste a vote.
• Is someone hiding in the curtains?  I keep seeing weird close-ups.  
• Cut to Kevin telling Andrea that she’s right.  About what?
• Kevin thinks that if they voted right now, it would be Andrea, but if they wait and vote tomorrow, it’s Kevin.
• Mike says, “They’d be doing you a huge favor if they put you into limbo.  Trust me.” 
• Andrea says that she doesn’t necessarily want to go, but she’s not afraid.  She knows she can beat Holly.  Everyone knows she can beat Holly.  I pray that she can’t.
• In the kitchen, Gene asks if any of them have a friend named Kenny.  I don’t know why.
• In the bathroom, Kevin tells Erica that he thinks that most people want Holly to go, so it doesn’t matter who goes to limbo.  She says that she assumed he wouldn’t want to go to limbo, because the immunity isn’t a big deal.  
• In the background, we learn that Stephanie wears Bare Minerals, because she’s doing her make-up.  This is way more interesting than the staged live feeds, but that doesn’t make it interesting.
• I take a break to answer the #Fanswers to help out the players I like.
• I tell Stephanie to vote for Sneaky Andrea over Shady Kevin.
• Kevin asks if he would be smarter to work with Jeffrey or Stephanie in the future, because his alliance is toast.  I actually don’t know how to answer that, because I just want him to leave.  
• Mike wants to know if he can beat Erica in limbo.  Absolutely, 100%, no freaking way.  So, I vote yes.
• Holly wants to know if she has a better chance of beating Kevin and Andrea.  I say Kevin, but I’m lying.
• Erica asks if we would like to see her on Dancing with the Stars.  I heart her.
• You know what’s really weird?  I’m watching the live feed in one window, and I opened the Fanswers in another to avoid refreshing, and now I’m seeing two totally different live feeds.
• Gene wants to know who is more likely to turn their back on him - Joy or Kevin.  I like Gene, so I answer honestly (Kevin).
• Andrea wants to know if we’re rooting for Stephanie or Jeffrey more.  She can’t vote Jeffrey into limbo, so I wonder why she’s asking.
• Jeffrey wants to know if it would be a jerk move to send someone to limbo two weeks in a row.  Why not?  
• Joy asks if we’d rather keep Gene or Kevin in the game.  I’m not going to lie to her if it means getting rid of Kevin.
• I just missed about 10 minutes of feed, but I’m OK with that.  When I tune back in, Erica says that she’s doing better in the challenges than she thought.  
• Stephanie says that she always knew she couldn’t sprint.  
• They’re all just lounging around, talking about what to do.  They might play Charades.  This is riveting stuff.
• Except it’s not, because I just went to put my laundry away.  I’m sure nothing happened.
• When I return, Joy says that, when she eventually becomes Team Captain, if she loses a challenge, don’t mock her for putting on a bikini and climbing into the hot tub.
• Joy says that she hasn’t resorted to it yet, but she will.
• Steph says that it seems to work - really?  Is that why Holly came back?
• Erica realizes that Jeffrey is drinking.  He tells her that she started a new game called “Find the wine”.  
• As she’s looking, Holly wanders by in her bikini to join Andrea in the hot tub.
• Holly laughs, as it appears Erica is looking in the hot tub for the wine.  That would ruin it.
• Unfortunately, they have to take off their microphones in the hot tub, so I can’t hear what Holly and Andrea are talking about.  It sounds like Holly has some master plan that she doesn’t want the others to know.  Does it involve Tweeting constantly until the internet breaks?
• Erica and Joy are working together to find the wine.  I hope they find it somewhere in plain sight.
• They start playing Hot and Cold.  *sigh*
• Back in the hot tub… no one cares.
• Erica throws cookies at Jeffrey, because she still can’t find the wine.  
• Andrea says that, basically, it doesn’t matter if she goes to limbo.  Great - let her go.  
• Andrea is my age, and she has a 9 year old child.  That’s a terrifying thought.
• She’s learned so much, and she doesn’t care if she gets sent home.  Sounds like she’s ready to go home.  
• Ten minutes later, we’re still looking for the wine.  Jeffrey tells the girls that it’s in one of the bedrooms.  If they don’t find it soon, it will all be in Jeffrey’s belly.
• Erica tells Jeffrey that she’s not giving a reaction, because she wants it to be over soon.  “So, get drunk alone, SugarTits!” (Or something like that).
• Kevin says that it’s in the white room, and Joy goes tearing in there.  Oops.  Kevin was getting dressed.  I don’t think she saw anything.  Erica goes to look, and Stephanie goes to watch.  I’m not sure she cares one way or the other.
• Gene asks Joy what it’s like to keep chasing out of something that is just slightly out of her grasp.  *snerk*  Jeffrey bursts out laughing.  Joy is not amused, but I am.
• Erica finally finds the wine and they head to the kitchen.  Gene tells Steph that, the moment they set it down, he’s going to hide it again.
• Looks like they have an exercise bike.  It’s one of the lame ones.
• Kevin tells Mike, Andrea, and Holly that they should have their own reality show.  Mike wants to call it “The Good Guys.”  They can’t believe they don’t have a name for themselves.
• I would rather kill myself than watch a show that was nothing but these four assholes sitting around, talking about how they’re better than everyone else.
• Team Awesome jokes around, laughs, and generally tries to have a good time.  When necessary, they plot.  When they’re upset, they talk about the other players.  
• In contrast, Team Wackadoodle sits around all the time, bitching about Team Awesome, calling them names, then saying that they’re mean.  I am so confused.  Maybe I need to consult a dictionary.  Does “mean” have the same meaning that it used to?  Does hypocrite?
• Andrea climbs out of the hot tub and starts scratching her own ass.  Thanks, ABC.
• We learn that Holly knew where the wine was the whole time, and she just didn’t say anything.
• We also learn that Holly gets all her swimsuits from Victoria’s Secret.
• Joy thinks they’re really cute, but the bottoms are too big.  Is that because you need a top to fit your 44 DDDXXDDD boobs?  I imagine that a bottom in size DDDXXDDD would be pretty big.
• They talk about Fanswers.  Holly wants a human instead of puppies.  Because she’s EVIL AND HATES PUPPIES!  Anyway, Joy thinks it would be funny to send in Alex.
• Sitting in the hot tub looks nice, so I decide to book a spa day.  
• Oh, good, they’re all fighting over the wine.
• “I am not going on the Oregon trail with Joy!  She would steal rations, and then you’d get dysentery, and then she’d leave you.”  Ha!  Guess who that was?
• Joy went to 1,000 proms.  Whatever.  Zzzzzzz.  One of them was wherever Holly went to high school.  That’s weird.
• Kevin jokes that they’re going to send him to limbo because he drinks all the booze, and Holly and Andrea are both non-drinkers.
• The TV in the living room randomly turns on.  There’s no music, but we hear the chimes, and everyone runs into the living room.
• Ori tells that we voted for them to black food vs. white food.  Jeffrey says that he thinks it’s Obama v. Romney.  Gene tells us how funny it would be if he opened the drawer to find cornbread, fried chicken, etc.  Is it racist if I laugh?
• Stephanie is trying to think of what is black vs. white foods.
• Black foods win.  Stephanie takes a step forward, but Gene stops her.  “Please, allow me.”  Ha!
• Some of these foods, like plums and blackberries, are really purple.
• Someone calls for Guiness.  That’s black!
• Everyone is unpacking the black foods, and we cut to Kevin and Mike in the bedroom.
• Kevin tells Mike that Erica asked him if he wanted to go to limbo for the immunity.  He finds it interesting that she asked, but he doesn’t really know what to make of it.
• Mike really wants Andrea in limbo, because it gives her immunity next week.  
• Kevin points out that he has no way of knowing if he would have been in the bottom two.
• Sounds like Mike wants him to talk to Gene.  Kevin says that, if Holly says she wants to go up against Andrea, they’ll send Kevin to limbo, purely to spite her.  
• Mike thinks Andrea needs a break - it doesn’t sound like limbo is a break.  It sounds like it freaking sucks.  
• Mike wants Kevin to go to the other side and drop hints that will get them to send Andrea to limbo instead of him.  So, saying things like that he’s willing to go.  Mike also tells us that Jeffrey doesn’t trust his alliance.  It sounds like he thinks they might get Jeffrey on their side - not with Andrea there.  Sorry, Mike.
• Anyway, Kevin doesn’t want to play dirty like that by lying to manipulate them.  I can respect that.  He also thinks that it’ll be Andrea, anyway, so he doesn’t need to do anything.
• Kevin says that he can’t talk to Gene, but I’m not clear on why.
• Randomly, Kevin throws out, “I assume we’re all voting for Stephanie?”  Yes, Steph will get three votes and either Kevin or Andrea will get the other five.  Gene’s vote is basically irrelevant.  
• Mike again tries to send Kevin to talk to Jeffrey, and Kevin repeats that he’s already said he’s not going to do that.  Mike is trying to push Kevin into going against what he thinks is right.  This is interesting.
• Kevin really doesn’t think Gene or Joy want him in limbo.  “Unless they get thinkin’.”  They have been thinking, Kevin.
• Mike calls Stephanie a “pain in the ass” and says that he hates her.  How can anyone hate Stephanie?  Didn’t he say 100% the opposite of that in the confessional the other day?  I’ve already lived through this crap once - someone go check all the recaps for me (Ok, I don’t really expect anyone to do that).
• We move to the hot tub.  I think I’d rather go to bed than finish watching this.
• We learn that Joy turned 20 just before her daughter was born.  
• Wow, we learn that Holly is doing this now, then she can be wild and do whatever she wants once she gets married.  She’s an adult, right? She can’t do what she wants now?  
• She also notes that her ability to do what she wants will be limited by her husband.  That’s not what you should be looking for in a husband.  Try finding someone who will experience life with you, not hold you back.  He should be helping you plan, not giving you permission to go.
• Holly claims to have never had a boyfriend or been on a date.  How strict are her parents?  
• Someone showers her with gifts?  Her parents?  Ew.  She’s talking about parents who work 2-3 jobs to spoil their children and shower them with crap.  You know what I would rather have than a ton of expensive gifts I don’t need?  Parents who work one job and spend time with me.
• Back to Mike, trying to talk Kevin into telling Erica that he would rather not do limbo two weeks in a row.  Then, she’ll think she’s doing him a favor by voting for Andrea.  She is.  I’m not sure what this “she thinks” nonsense is.  When someone does what you ask them to do, with no obligation, and getting nothing in return - that’s what we call a “favor.”  
• Mike says that he has the kind of face that people want to punch.  Can’t argue there.
• He also says that none of the others really like Stephanie, and they don’t really want to hang out with her.  They think she’s just hanging onto the cool kids.  That makes me very sad for her.  I would much rather hang out with her than any of these sanctimonious assholes.
• Kevin tells us that he assumes that everyone will respond to his Fanswer with Jeffrey, which gives him an opening to talk to Jeff about it.  Everyone vote that Kevin should ally with Stephanie!!  Up yours, Kevin!
• Kevin tells Mike that Stephanie has it out for him. Yeah, she’s such a crazy bitch for having a problem with the guy who constantly insults her, interrupts her, undermines her, and talks shit about her to the other players.  What is wrong with her?
• Cut to the white bedroom, where Erica and Gene are talking.
• They’re trying to figure out why Joy is hanging out with Holly.
• They talk about how it’s a million degrees in The Glass House.
• Erica comments that Joy doesn’t really like Gene.  It seems like he’s aware of this. 
• Stephanie joins them.  Apparently, they can’t turn off the lights and sit in the dark when it’s super hot. Gene suggests that they all put on more clothes to give a giant middle finger to the producers.  I give the producers 
• Stephanie decides to get a squirt bottle and squirt everyone with it because it’s so hot.  I read in Cosmo that you should try that in the middle of sex, but I’ve been very strongly encouraged not to try that.
• Kevin wanders in, and Steph leaves.  There are jokes about how the Gene/Joy showmance is a sham, because “Kerica” never played those games.  
• Erica would prefer to call it “Erivan.”
• We also learn that she’s still upset that Kevin voted her into limbo.  HAHAHAHA.  She says, “If I had to vote for you because of strategy - and, by the way, you’re killing at that…” and then she gets interrupted.  I’m laughing too hard to say anything else.
• Kevin pretends that he intended to pull Erica aside and tell her that he was going to vote for her before they asked.  She says they’re not even, because he voted her in first without warning her.  He asks if they’d be even if she sends him back again.
• Gene throws out, “If me and Joy hooked up, we’d be ‘Joyne.’”  Awesome.
• Kevin tells him to just make out with her and get it over with.  
• Back to “Kerica.”  Apparently, when Kevin went to limbo, he realized how bad it was that he vote for her, and he thinks he made a mistake.  You know why he thinks that, right? Because you came back and Robin didn’t.  He wishes he’d voted for someone less popular than Robin.
• Kevin acts like he really missed Erica and he was crying when she was gone, so she tells him to name three mesmerizing qualities that she has.  He says that it’s impossible to narrow it down to just three.  I would like him much better if he would ditch Andrea and Mike and make out with Erica more.
• Gene asks if he can be an usher in “Kerica’s” wedding - “Just because I’m black.”  Maybe I’m giddy because I’m so tired, but this conversation is 100% awesome.
• Because I’m enjoying this, naturally, we cut to Andrea in the living room, talking to Joy.  She’s wearing her “I <3 Kris” shirt.  Didn’t she wear that yesterday?  Poor thing needs a different shirt.  OK, Steph is also there.
• There are two conversations going on at once.  It’s slightly more interesting if you act like Andrea and Stephanie are talking to each other, since Joy and Kevin are also there, but not really talking.
• Joy wants to play Dirty Dancing.
• Holly and Mike in the hot tub.  She knows she’s not coming back, so she’s sitting in there all night.
• Mike asks Holly if she’s done something more than 25 times in her life.  I’m going to assume he’s talking about masturbating, because that has to be more interesting than their actual conversation.
• Yup.  They’re talking about sunsets.  
• They both sleep through sunrises.  I like seeing the sun rise, but only if I’ve been up all night. 
• I’ve decided to just stare at Holly’s boobs, because I don’t want to hear anything these two have to say.
• Holly says that she doesn’t have a lot of friends.  I believe that.  Ha!  All of her friends live far away.  I’m sure that’s not because they can’t stand to be around her, but… I’m going to pretend that it is.
• We cut to Joy telling Erica that she’s sexually attracted to Gene, but she refuses to be celibate.  She’s basically a sex addict, and he’s celibate.  That cannot work.

                                                             

• Everyone else in the room left and Erica is pumping Joy for more information on Gene.
• “Does he give you love cuddles in your heart?”  “He cuddles me for real.”
• She says they’re getting closer in the Friends room, but she’s worried about hurting him because, as Erica said, “he won’t put out.”  He doesn’t want to have sex with anyone until they get really serious, and she doesn’t want to get really serious until they’ve had sex.  Sex is an important way of developing an intimate bond.  I would never buy a new car, no matter how nice it looked, without taking it for a test drive.
• Why did Gene take a vow of celibacy?
• In the living room, they’re talking about making Kevin the next Bachelor.  Stephanie thinks he’s too old.  He’s offended, but that’s more a reflection on the show itself than on Kevin.  I think she's wrong, though.  Most of the girls are in their early to mid-20s, but I think most of the guys are 26-35ish.  Younger guys are less likely to want to get married right away.
• We learn that he’s 33, hopefully turning 34 in The Glass House.  His birthday is August 4.  Happy birthday, Kevin!  GO THE FUCK HOME!
• We also learn that he was 19 when his daughter was born.  I thought he was 18.  Whatever.  Since I don’t care, it doesn’t matter.  Kevin totally strikes me as the kind of guy who would refuse to wear a condom, so it makes perfect sense.
• Erica discusses playing kissy-face with Kevin again and letting him think that he’s playing her.  Jeffrey tells her to “use her womanly weapons.”  She assumes that she’ll end up being the one hurt if that happens.  She tells Jeffrey and Joy that she had an interesting conversation with Kevin earlier and goes over what we already saw.  
• He was totally playing her.  He just wants to get her on his side so he can manipulate her vote.  Poor thing. 
• Luckily, she’s smart enough to realize that she can’t trust him.
• Jeffrey says, go ahead and kiss him all you want, then don’t vote with him.
• Erica says that she can’t in good conscience let him “whore himself with no pay.”  She would have to tell him.
• She repeats her comment that he made the obvious, intuitive choice when faced with voting for the hot, cool chick he made out with, or the Mormon married woman.
• DING DING DING!  She says that it all only makes sense if he has a crush on Andrea.
• Joy tells Erica that she seems like she’s really good in bed. Erica, “Yeah, I’m awesome in the sack.”  I love her.
• Oh, wow.  In the living room, Stephanie and Kevin are talking about retirement plans.  ZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz….  Excuse me.  I have to go check my 401(k) balance.  Nope.  Can’t retire quiet yet.
• I’m not sure why Andrea’s talking.  She’s Mormon.  Her 15 kids will take care of her when she retires.
• I guess ABC doesn’t want to hear her talk either, because they cut out while she’s talking.  That’s it.
