Big Brother 4, The Finale: The Lesser of Two Evils

We get another shot of listening to the jurors in Diary Room segments as they consider their votes:

Jack says Jun played a smart game and Alison played a terrific game for endurance, stamina, and guts. It’s a tough decision.

Dana says Alison played them all. She hesitates and then says she might deserve to win for that.

Nathan says they all lied and said bad things, so he can’t frown on Alison’s disrespect. Oh please. Nathan, come to your senses, man!

Justin says Alison overcame the odds but Jun had a solid gameplan.

Jee says Alison was a strong competitor and deserves to win because of that.

Erika says Jun personally attacked people and she doesn’t deserve to win because of that.

Rob says he is voting for the person he least likes but who played the game better, so he knows he’s being fair.

Each HouseGuest chooses between two keys. They have their name on the handle and hidden in the box is the name of the person for whom they are casting their vote.

In an amusing turn of events, after casting their votes, the HouseGuests are sequestered in individual rooms and shown the entire season. Unfortunately, this violates the Geneva Convention against cruel and unusual punishment and the entire show is shut down. OK, not really, but that’s a lot of tape to watch! Many of them are surprised at what went on behind their backs. For example, Rob watches Erika early in the season talking about how horrible he is. Erika sees Jun say she has the worst fashion sense. Nathan yells, “Nate, don’t do it!” at the TV when he’s about to watch himself Veto Alison. Heh.

On a more serious note, Jee sees Erika call him a “[bleep] Korean piece of [bleep]” and is not amused. Dana sees Jack say she’s not smart and has the sex appeal of a buzzard’s crotch. Heh, I gotta tell you, that still cracks me up. She also sees herself being called “Mantroll” and sees Alison talk about “Mantroll and the Midget” and how they’ll have ugly babies, etc. Justin calls Alison a monster after watching that segment.

With all the secrets out, they reunite again, including the other three (no Scott, of course) to give each other the opportunity to confront one another.

We start with Michelle, who says she doesn’t know where begin. All of them except for the Exes hurt her more than they’ll ever know!! Oh, get over it. She continues that she knows she’s young but she’s sorry, that was horrible, she was traumatized. At this point I just want to reach into the TV set and smack her. I mean, come on. This isn’t freaking Barbie Playhouse. What the hell did she expect? She whines on, saying she didn’t think there was even a 1% chance of being booted. Wah, wah, wah. You lied to my face. Wah. Wah. Wah. Jack finally says Jee shouldn’t have nominated her! Two points for Jack! Now be quiet, Michelle.

Dana says she had an issue with the namecalling. Ya think? She says she was especially surprised at Jack and Erika; she didn’t think they were like that. We get to see Jack’s “buzzard’s crotch” comment again. Thank you, producers! Erika says it was strategic but Dana correctly points out that it was in private in the Diary Room. Erika tries to claim that there was somebody else she was talking to. Um, yeah, a producer. So what? Horrible attempt at defense there, Erika. But she continues, claiming it was playing the game.

Jack apologizes and says he doesn’t feel that way at all. In a separate Diary Room segment filmed afterwards, Jack says when he was younger, he found a buzzard attractive and that’s what he was thinking of. Riiiight. Heh.

Jee says he has a serious issue – Erika’s uncalled for racial slur, mentioned above, along with “Fresh off the boat [bleep] immigrant” added in at the end. He says he was blown away. She says the first two weeks she was not herself and she said it out of anger. She completely apologizes and in another Diary Room segment like Jack’s, says she truly doesn’t feel that way, that her own grandparents immigrants, etc. She apologizes again and Jee says he’ll just have to take that.

Rob says that David and Amanda shocked him – he can’t believe they had sex on this show! He further tells Dave that Dave never thanked him for that – apparently Rob was the one who got the ball rolling to get the HOH room. Plus he got the wine, condoms, etc. So Dave thanks him. Amanda is just plain embarrassed. Michelle, though, was disgusted. It was national TV! Oh please. Grow up, please. She says David is no longer welcome in her house because her daddy said so. Harumph! She can’t even consider him a friend now. Um, why? Because he had sex? Honey, he’s had sex before. It wasn’t like it was a direct slap at you or anything. Please, get over yourself.

Justin jokingly calls Jee on his alliance with Jun that Justin never knew about. Jee says his friendship was always genuine and his loyalty was always to the guys. The thing that really got Justin was that Jee and Jun would fight all time and it was all just for show. Jee says he was trying to use her but she got the best of him. Nathan says Jee was the better man, she’s a really shallow person.
