BB9 Week 1 recap - "I like the ones who have motors, not the ones who pedal"


16 houseguests enter the house, and are coupled up with a partner that they will be playing the game with. Among the houseguests are exes Sharon and Jacob, who are paired together, and real couple Jen and Ryan, who are not. Sheila hates that she's paired up with Adam, and they start bickering immediately. Things get worse when she takes offense to Adam using the word "retards" to describe disabled kids.

The couples get into their first competition, which is for them to hold onto eachother suspended in the air. The winner will have the power to evict a couple of their choice. Sheila is the first to drop. With 4 couples left, Julie offers them the chance to earn $10,000 if they are able to grab the pillow below them. Allison and Ryan fail trying to get it, and so do Chelsia and Crazy James. Parker and Jen win the competition after making a deal to have Matt and Natalie drop.

Jacob tries to turn the house against Parker, telling Jen that people have been calling him a snake. Jacob refuses to give names, so Parker wakes up half the house to try and get to the bottom of it. Parker talks privately with Sharon, who blames it on Ryan. When Parker tells Jen he wants Ryan out, Jen has to come clean about Ryan being her boyfriend. Ryan tells Allison the news too, and she doesn't take it well, since she's become very attracted to Ryan.

Parker and Jen reach their decision on who to evict, and choose to send Jacob and Sharon out of the house. Adam and Sheila are shocked to still be in the game.

The HoH competition, hosted by former Big Brother couple Eric and Jessica, is for the pairs to match their partner's answer to questions. Amanda and Alex get the most right and win the first HoH. Jen makes herself a target by being cocky, which pisses off Parker.

Unhappy with being tied to a couple, Allison threatens to reveal Jen's secret. Parker and Jen decide they're better off telling everyone now before Allison spills the beans. Allison and Jen get into a fight, as she says she wasn't going to tell anyone. Joshuah makes everyone else swear on the bible that they do not know anyone. Sheila and Allison decide to pretend to be lesbians, a revelation that shocks Joshuah.

Matt and Alex make an alliance, adding their partners Natalie and Amanda in too. They put Jen and Parker up alongside Ryan and Allison. Jen is upset, but has to look out for herself.

Joshuah is called into the diary room and informed that his partner Neil has had to leave the game for personal reasons. Getting to pick one of the evicted houseguests to be his new partner, he chooses Sharon. And Sharon is really irked when she finds out about Jen and Ryan, as Jen was the first person she told about Jacob.

Crazy James thinks there is a 4th couple, and speculates with Alex it might be Parker and Amanda. Alex had been annoyed seeing them massaging eachother, but then Amanda gets annoyed at him when she hears he thinks she's lying.

For the PoV competition, the girls are strapped to a board and spun around by their partner. The first person to reach 300 spins without letting go of their panic button wins. Allison drops out of the challenge first, and Amanda lets go on purpose. Parker struggles to spin the wheel, meaning Matt and Natalie complete the challenge first.

Matt has told Parker he would take him off the block, and Parker is hoping that's true as Alex is gunning for him. But Matt has to look out for himself and make sure that Jen and Ryan get broken up, meaning he decides not to use the veto. Jen is so desperate to stay she starts telling people her boyfriend is a racist. Sheila lets Ryan know that Jen has been throwing her under the bus, putting their relationship in jeopardy.

The house begins to turn against Amanda, and Chelsia starts an argument after hearing her gossiping about her partner. Joshuah unloads on Amanda, but goes too far when he brings up her dad's suicide.

By a vote of 3-1, Parker and Jen are evicted from the house.
