Big Brother recap: Dick the devil hits new lows...
Are CBS executives glad they chose this sick, twisted "person" named Nick to be on "Big Brother *" for entertainment value? He has been nominated for eviction along with his manipulative daughter, Daniele, and on tonight's broadcast, did his devil best to get under the skin of all other houseguests at one point saying, "I have to get them to despise me."
That task had already been accomplished but for good measure, he went on a rampage calling Amber "a disaster on two legs" (well, that IS true) but he did not have to add: "You are one ugly b*tch. I promise on the life of your daughter I am going to make your life miserable."
CBS did not see fit to air Amber's anti-Semetic remarks made previously and caught on the live-feed, but the network had no hesitation in airing Dick's homophobic taunts toward gay contestant Dustin, whom he repeatedly called "Princess."
Even if it's strategy, it's so vile and only a vile person could say the words with such conviction. And coming from a 44-year-old man wearing nail polish and earings, it was pretty ridiculous.
Of the Christian Jameka he said: "You can't even save yourself!" and after Dick won the POV competition, he mockingly said: "Thank you Jesus!" I think Jameka spoke for anyone stupid enough (me included) to still be watching this annoying show when she said: "He is Satan in this house."
Daniele, knowing daddy Dick has destroyed her chances in this game, made the bold move of storming into the HOH room and trying to distance herself from daddy's behavior. She even used tears: "Everybody won't even look at me in this house because of what he does...It sucks! It sucks! That's my dad America, I'm so proud."
When Daniele added that she had "apologized for him so many times," Jameka countered with: "When it's convenient to you."
Then Eric, who I have a little crush on despite the little faux-hawk, blasted Daniele for being silent about her dad's rampages on Dustin's sexuality, Amber's mothering and Jameka's religion and other "despicable, disgusting things": "If ANYONE was saying those things about people, it should disgust you."
After her performance, she is seen talking to daddy Dick saying she now thinks she's "halfway in with them" then she adds: "I hate these people, they're so fake."
Ha!
Anywho, Jessica puts Dustin up as a pawn in place of Daniele who daddy Dick so generously took off the block after winning POV. He should win father of the year. Dustin had offered to be put up so he could make the following speech when Dick is voted out Thursday: "I stand here merely as a courtesy flush to the pile of crap that stands before you."
That'd be great! But Jessica, growing ever-paranoid, got it into her head that Dustin and Eric are in an alliance with Dick so now she's not sure which way to go. Seems like a no-brainer, still. Props to Jen for cleverly planting that seed of doubt and keeping herself off of the block.
This girl's got game!
