BB4 Week 1 recap - "X really does mark the spot"


8 new houseguests enter the house and are surprised there are so few of them. They successfully complete their first food challenge, which is to stay on a beam that rises every time they get a question wrong. The houseguests soon learn that some of them will be joined by their exes. After learning the twist, the 8 of them pledge to stay together and get rid of their unwanted old flames.

The five exes enter the house and reaction is mixed. Alison takes it badly, as she knows her current boyfriend won't like it. Erika is relatively unphased at seeing Robert, and is still hoping she can manipulate him. David is relieved to see the one ex he still gets along with in Michelle. Scott and Amanda get into a shouting match.

Robert and Jee manage to attract the ire of Alison and Dana when they both exercise their bed pass and kick the girls out of their beds. Justin tries to make up with his ex Alison, but Alison still wants him gone first, and gets the original 8 to agree. Justin, Robert and Jee form an alliance of their own.

The HoH challenge divides the houseguests into pairs, with one person having to keep their knee on a switch in order to avoid dumping fish guts on their partner. Soon only two couples remain: Justin and Robert vs Nathan and Alison. Justin steps off when Nathan agrees not to put up him or his partner, allowing Alison and Nathan to win the challenge. For sitting out of the challenge, Scott gets to choose which one is HoH and picks Nathan.

Nathan doesn't trust Erika as she's scheming a lot, and Alison even suggests replacing her with Robert in their alliance. Scott is also a target, and despite his attempts to get Nathan to stick with their original plan, a lot of people want him gone. Nathan nominates Amanda and Jee for eviction. But Scott now wants his ex to stay so he can work things out with her, and is particularly annoyed by Nathan's speech.

The houseguests are tied to a post for the PoV competition, and have to untie the knots on their rope so that they can reach the centre. Dana narrowly beats Nathan to win.

Jun suggests to Dana that she could take Jee off so Scott could go up. Nathan is willing to do it if his alliance agree. But Scott is starting to unravel all on his own, and throws chairs around. Scott does eventually offer an apology to the group, but is expelled from the game shortly after.

Jack isn't sure if Dana is playing both sides or not, so asks her to use the PoV to put Justin on the block as a way of testing her loyalty. At the veto meeting, Dana decides not to use the veto.

With Scott now gone, David decides to step up his flirting with Amanda. Nathan lends David and Amanda the HoH room for a night, and the two have sex.

By a vote of 9-0, Amanda is evicted from the house.
