the uncanny – A Piece of the Sky

JC’s move to tear #Tangela apart, with Brett x Angela, has backfired. Brett is now on to JC. He thinks JC is trying to break Level 6 up and steal Brett’s spot. Brett is now arguing, to Tyler, that they should target JC, instead.

JC is still safe – for now – since once Fessy is gone, Hay is the next big threat, and then Sam will probably go, before JC and Level 6.

I hope Sam can turn things around: she dumped Brett, and she seems to have gone back to Tyler. But Sam is obviously waiting for any chance to get out of her pinky promise alliance with Tyler. There is no way they can be in the end together: Tyler must take out Sam or Sam must take out Tyler.

My Final Five remains Sam, JC, Kaycee, Angela and Scottie – if he can win the battle back. I am not cheering for either side; my final five includes one Foutte member, two independents and two Level 6 members.

JC is the only one who manages to be a great strategist and great TV (fattening the HGs up). Brett is also good TV. In fact; Hammock Brett has struck again!

Fessy was being selfish, demanding that Hay spend all of this week with him, when Hay is going to stay in the house and have to continue playing the game.

Brett was there to comfort Hay, when insensitive Fessy struck out. Neither Brett or Hay is going to win, but Braleigh is a great, fun showmance.

Tangela is not a great, fun showmance. Tyler seems more into Angela, than Angela is into him. (People who like males, will say Tyler is too good for Angela and people who like females, will say Angela is too good for Tyler.)

Even Rob, Taran and Brent thought Tyler comparing the smell of Angela to a newborn baby, was weird. Angela, my Ice Queen, deserves better. Plus, she shouldn’t be rushed or forced into any TV relationship.

Tyler and Angela might have a chance – outside the game – while Faleigh won’t last beyond Finale Night, especially if Hay wants a future on later BB seasons. Most times, showmances are not the answer, Grodner!

Both Tyler and Angela could win the entire game. Tyler is the heartless vampire, and Angela is a frozen Ice Queen. I like them the way they are! Neither of them needs a fake showmance to “humanize” them.

You don’t need a showmance to win the game. And people who don’t like commitment, aren’t as in touch with their feelings, and put up walls, to protect themselves, do, most times, eventually find a spouse and have kids.

What makes us naive to a fault or remote and cold, makes us human. You don’t have to have a happily-ever-after in the show, just to have a compelling player. Some people are #AntiTwist; for the most part, I am #AntiShowmance.

The #JODY game rears its head again – this time between Fessy and Brett, instead of Tyler and the evicted Swaggy.

Sam and I are both tired of a conventional game, on the part of everyone, who is not Tyler or JC. I too, like Sam, am ready to stomp metaphorical, strategic “mudholes” and turn this game upside down, just to keep it interesting.

Faysal is a lumbering giant, both physically and mentally. Kaycee went back up on the block, just like during Hay’s HOH, and Scottie is 99.99% going home.

As I mentioned earlier, I ship Hay and Brett. Hay is a disappointing player, but as a person, she deserves a better significant other, than Fessy. Don’t be too vulgar but drop a bomb on Fessy’s intentions of ever winning Hay’s heart, Brett!

Back to Hay’s game: extremely disappointing. Fans of the game or independent fans, are just aghast at how fast Hay could go from hero to zero. This week has been a wake-up call not just for the weakness of Scottie’s game, but Hay’s as well.

One can only look back and see that during the intermediary period, after Swaggy left and when Bay was unofficially running Foutte, Hay had some clever ideas or instincts, but she would rarely voice them, outside the DR, much less, act on any of them.

Hay’s passive gameplay has followed her into Fessy’s disastrous (for Foutte) HOH week and is a major reason for the utter collapse of her own HOH week: RS going home.

The Mind Flayer (Stranger Things fans, rejoice), that is JC, continues to live on. His Hive Mind, has jumped hosts. Still, JC has a good point: even dedicated, hardcore Tyler fans are nervous about this whole #Tangela experience. I like them as good friends, but personally, I don’t see the showmance material.

On a game level, almost any kind of showmance is distracting. In the first Season of Survivor, on Borneo, Richard Hatch was very taken by the quirky and handsome Sean, but that was only in his heart. His brain voted Sean out without a second thought and Hatch won the million dollars.

I am not surprised that Bay and Swaggy didn’t survive game-wise, even though they seem to love each other, as people. And of course, I have never put much stock in Hay or Fessy, as players, or ever been excited, on a game level, for their showmance. Neither Hay, nor Fessy, are in my Final Five.

Tyler is a strong player; if his game immune system has been compromised by Tangela (Pokémon?) he isn’t showing any symptoms – yet. He reassured JC, not to take this Tangela nonsense seriously, and if Tyler really is bi, this may be a relief, for JC, on a personal level too. JC doesn’t like the females on his men. He broke up Fessy and Kaitlyn, and JC has never been a huge fan of Fessy x Hay.

Angela liking Brett, that way, seems highly unlikely. I don’t see it at all. So, I hope JC doesn’t try to sell that ocean-side property, in Kansas, too hard.

Lines are being drawn. With Foutte, all but in a free fall, it’s time to look toward the endgame. The great mental war between JC and Tyler, is just beginning, like Professor X trying to outsmart Magneto.

Brett is a funny character, a paragon of the trickster archetype, but compared to the depths of Tyler’s game-mind, Brett is just a very pretty face (dump him Sam). JC, defeat Tyler. Come up with a better line and entangle Tangela in your gladiator’s net.
