Live night 27 P2

Josie is imagining going out for dinner with some bloke, going back to theirs and turning the lights on and a bit of Marvin Gaye's sexual healing comes on. (As Ben has carefully orchestrated his dimmer light this way, on purpose) 'Do you know what I mean? Bl**dy hell! Hellooooo!' That's one way to make a memory ;)

 

JOHN: (doesn't have the soul of a poet like Ben) I would vomit if I heard that! And that sh*t feeding her chocolates and that.. puts it in her mouth and that!

Yeah, Josie doesn't like that but Ben believes this is normal.

JOHN: (dumbstruck that Ben does this and is not considered undateable) That's not normal!! Not in the year 2010, maybe in the 1930's that was normal.

This is the era old-fashioned Benny wishes he lived in. John wants these lot to appreciate that it's even more difficult for him to understand as Australia hasn't even been around for that long! Ife tweezes out part of Mario's eyebrow with her bare fingernails; Mario's not sure he likes this grooming.

In the background, Ben is talking about balls which John thinks is like out of Back to the Future 'What do you mean a ball? There's no such thing as a ball anymore!!' Ife sits up to say that there are balls.

JOHN: (humorous word play) Yeah - a football!!

Ife had attended a Choreographer's Ball a few years ago she says they'll have to have some elocution lessons first. Mario thinks that would be like My Fair lady! John is comparing balls to being off something like The Man in the Iron Mask 'that's how old dress up parties date back!' Corin thinks it'd be funny for them to dress up and learn the waltz tomorrow. John's never seen or heard of this dance before. 

Nathan and Dave take each other by the hand and whirl around the room. John seriously thought this way of thinking was extinct and that way of life was gone in the 1930's and didn't know it was still carrying on. Ben quips that he's recreated it 'vacuum-packed, microwavable!' John can't compute that people follow this; Ife explains that there's a whole population of people who live like this.  

When Ben had styled his hair like the Titanic, John thought he was taking the mickey because no one thinks like that in the 'real world!'

NATHAN: (the looming question is) Ben, were you on the Titanic when it sank and did you get frozen in an iceberg? And just got thawed out recently?

JOHN: (in all his infinite movie wisdom concludes) Michael J Fox has brought you back!! 

Ben's feet were getting cold in bed so he gets Dave to pull his blanket up over them; then checks that Corin is warm enough. Ife tells Josie and Mario that she's met lots of people like Ben, not that she knows them but from dance jobs. She went to do a birthday party for a 12 year old with all this elaborate stuff and a whole sea of people that you'd never meet. Josie would love to go to a party with people like that but Ife didn't get to speak to them as she was the hired help – the entertainment.

IFE: (This is all stuck in John's brain like a splinter) Look at John's face! His mouth has dropped! Look, his mouth's open!

Steve says if Ben is an act, to keep it going. Ife proclaims to John that these people do exist and repeats her story of the 12 year's old party and how half a million pounds was spent and they're all lahdidah! Josie is saying to Mario that she's very territorial which is why she can't use the outside garden toilet though she needs a number two. Instead, she plans to wait for everybody to go to bed before using the toilet and having a wash.

John is willing to relent that there may be people with 1930's haircuts but asks if they have Ben's views on team work and friendship. Ife doesn't know if they share these same values as she was only there to perform. Ife thinks the best bit was that when everyone was booing Ben (upon his entrance) he was shaking their hands. John has never seen anything like it unless he's watching The Titanic 'I've never even seen hair like it, let alone getting started on his personality!' Ife asks 'but do you like it though?'

JOHN: (confirms how awful Ben's hair is) No! It's just bed hair, isn't it?

Ifester hadn't meant Ben's hair but his personality!! John never knew people that still parted their hair down the middle! 'It can't be real, it can't! I'm not taking the mickey anymore – I'm being serious. That sort of person, does not exist. You can't have the views like that and be 100% serious, you can't seriously tell me to my face that team work and that doesn't work!'

Ben does mean it and has always lived in a world of individuals.

JOHN: (assuming they're not a bunch of wieners and gonads!!) But how can you have friends though?

Ben has loads of friends because they like him individually, as he does them. 'We don't all walk around like the Girl Guides! We're different. Just accept that people are different, John.' His friends must love the crap out of him despite him being a clown!

JOHN: (Shuts Ben right up) Oh you are.. there's different and then there's people that are from Mars!!

Steve exclaims to Corin in the kitchen that he just can't believe Ben and feels it's like Corin's in on the act as she went along with it. She so understands the way Ben is and that there is some seriousness in it but he loves winding everyone up in everything he does. 'Funny, funny lad!' Stevo chortles to himself at the sink.

Corin joins Nathan for a ciggie at the carousel. Nathan knows that a lot of what Ben does is put on but he's funny for all the wrong reasons. They are f**king shattered now and Nate won't even brush his teeth again after as he's brushed them about 5 times already! He's actually looking forward to getting up and having his run tomorrow morning as there's nowt else to do. Corin hopes it'll be hot and calls the day a mad one 'every day you never know like.. what's gonna happen in here!'

NATHAN: Each day is like essentially a week in the outside world.

Corin doesn't even remember what they did yesterday. He feels a million percent better about the whole thing now although nominations are sh*t but he's snapped out of his little thing. It's knocking about with Ben and Dave that's brought him out of it as he's had a laugh with them tonight. As this is something he wasn't doing laughing and the odd couple are two funny guys.

They agree that as long as Dave and Ben were together they could get filmed going about their daily business. One's a mad monk and the other's an aristocrat which Nathan thinks is absolutely f**king brilliant! He's so disappointed that he didn't catch on to their hilarity from the beginning as he formed a bond with the smokers. But now his days are flying listening to those two and having crack with them! They've laughed their heads off the past two or 3 days.

Seahorse assesses that they've been happy in the house but haven't laughed like they have tonight, which passes their time. He is excited to see them in the morning! Corin would rather be around laughing than barneying; they wonder what will happen tomorrow. To them it is like watching BB being around those two as they have them in f**king hysterics. Corin has a massive sweet tooth and wishes they had more to eat as this is all she can think about! (SC)

From Ben's perspective, John is going on and on about friendships beyond the programme but John's sorry and doesn't mean to upset anyone. I don't think John knows if he ought to hug Ben or run a shower to drown him in!!

NATHAN: (back to speak with his HM's in the bedroom) This is a living, walking, breathing sitcom!

He wakes up in the morning and can't wait to see what the labrador has in store; he doesn't think he's laughed continuously for 4 days than he has with the odd couple here. Ben's adored Dave from the second he walked in this place. Every day Nathan spends with those lads is a f**king sitcom and he's not high on Jesus or anything!

Ben is whispering into Corin's ear that John is stupid, thick and pre-judging him and he hates when people do that. 'So when he asks what we've been speaking about, say that I've invited you to the south of France, next year. (More audibly) Do you wanna come?' Corin goes along with it and pretends that she'll have to see if she can attend in Mid-October; Ben can get his Iranian friend to give her a lift.

BEN: Alright, we''ll see if you can clear it with HQ.

John holds his temple and shakes his head, looking rattled while Ben continues with his ruse that Corin must come as it'll be fun. 'You'll like my Libyan friends!' (SC) John has been perplexed into hushing his gums as Ben continues on that it's a bit naughty but he thinks Corin will quite like it. As they make their fake arrangements about Corin being flown to Tripoli (the capitol city of Libya) – John's eyes dart over to them every other millisecond.

JOHN: (Heard enough horse dung) Benny, you are talking utter bullsh*t!! You're talking bullsh*t. (Ben questions why) Why do you reckon? Corin's not even taking you seriously!

Corin gets the giggles as Ben asks John what the problem is because it's between him and her. John eyes them suspiciously; Ben doesn't believe John would want to come as English is not spoken at this location. John doesn't know why he'd make that comment when he's been all around Europe! 'He just nods, he's no idea about anything and just makes that comment out of absolutely nowhere!' Ben gives Alfred the Labrador a rub.

Ben won't let his wind up be in vain so rustles up some dates from the air and checks that Corin has a passport. She's excited about their sham trip! John quizzes Benji on whether he goes to a lot of effort with women on the outside. The big stupid octopus face rubbishes this and doesn't think John can think of life in terms of that 'if you click with someone, you click with someone – if you don't, you don't! It's as simple as that.' Josie howls with laughter off screen but John is just asking. In general, John doesn't think Ben would care if they clicked or not and would continue to put in effort until he was pretty much told 'no deal!'

Nathan compares this to the courtship of animals. For John this is just a very old-fashioned way of pulling birds and he's not used to it; neither is Nate.

JOHN: (still not stopped hounding him) Like you see it on movies and that set back in the 1950's.. but I've never seen it like now!

Corin runs interference that Ben is only having a laugh and not trying to pull her. John is sure that's how Ben would operate outside but knows he's only mucking around with Cozza 'there's no doubt about that!' Ben gives a bizaare example of the only girl he was properly in love with – this was at a polo match in 2005. Ben had lost his friends and basically there's the Chinawhite enclosure and Guards enclosure at Windsor.

JOHN: (Yuh he said it, Quiffy!) It sounds like you're in Alice in Wonderland or something! (Josie cackles again off camera as she finds this so funny)

It was the last week of July and Ben had a free pass to get in the Guards club but he didn't have one for Chinawhite, where he wanted to go. So one of his friends dared him to jump over the fence which he did in the end. However, when in these places you couldn't come out again because they check the security and he didn't have a tag. Ben had to fold his suit in such a way to fool them into thinking he did have one – up to his usual devious tricks.

Ben was getting more and more frustrated and worried about how he'd get home, being in a park 30/40 miles from London. So he sat on a chair by the entry of the enclosure, hoping one of his friends would wander past. 10 minutes later two beautiful girls in their last year of school walked by as though in a dream.

They were the physical perfection of everything he adored and they sat on his lap and swapped numbers. One of them ending up being the only one he's ever loved in his whole life and this was how he met her. He's saying that he meets his friends in the most unlikely of places and had met his Saudi Arabian friend in an off-license. John asks Benny where he lives and his reply is Central London, the middle of the capital city of the UK.

Ben maintains that he goes to clubs all the time and hosts them. John doubts Ben would go to the type Nate would; John expects the clubs he goes to are the Australian version of those Nathan would. He scoffs that Ben wouldn't go to Global Gathering and stuff like that! Ben again speaks out that he hosted a night in a jazz/funk/soul club for a year. This was a Wednesday night, the most difficult night of the week and got the place pretty full every Wednesday. He also hosts a Christmas party every year in a club and one two years ago everyone had to come as a stud or a b*tch.

He enjoys it as he loves quirky people and invited the girl from the tanning salon, a guy from the post office, friends from school, beautiful girls he'd met at the polo etc. As long as they've are quirky, interesting, have charm, got a bit of style, panache, something about them - 'you're there' 

BEN: (such a dweeby blurter) You'd be there if you weren't doing bl**dy investigating the whole time!

John doesn't think he'd go which bemuses Ben because he had 6 Australians there and has lots of them as friends! John doesn't mean to offend him or anything, he's just can't get his head around it. He'd go for a good laugh as it'd be like going to a Comedy Festival 'I'd be in the corner just absolutely p*ssing myself laughing! I couldn't take that seriously.'  

BEN: (screwed up doesn't even begin to describe Ben) Why?? This is where you and I are different. I'm actually a lot more broad-minded and liberal than you are. All that matters for somebody to be my friend, is that they've got a heart, they've got charm, they're stylish, they're interesting - they've got something about them. 

JOHN: (through giant Japanese anime eyes)What's style got to do with being your mate? 

Ben is condescending to John for getting style mixed up with fashion and that everybody should have style. He uses Steve as an example as having his own style and swagger.

JOHN: (Where did BB meet this booger?) Every person in this house has got something about them! You could say that about any person in this house!

He asks for what Ben is defining style as. Ben would describe it as someone with real guts and is out of the ordinary. John argues that everybody in this house could be considered out of the ordinary. Ben turns to Steve that John is having a real go at him because he'd said all of his friends are stylish. Ben thinks it would be odd if he wanted friends that didn't have style. 

John doesn't take his friends on terms of style; Ben does and elaborates once more than he's thinking of style in terms of fashion. He directs John towards Caoimhe who understands what he mean as she thinks outside the box and John can't! 

JOHN: (Could go Lionel Richie style on this row - all night long) Everybody on the planet has got something about them. 

BEN: (he's not sorry now, but he WILL be) Well you don't. 

John furrows his brows and sees if Stevo agrees with him that every person has their own unique style. When it slaps Ben that John isn't talking about fashion and clothes, as he'd listened to Ben's definition - he then asks if he could go into a store and the law of averages would say everyone there was stylish. John re-emphasises that the way Ben is referring to style yes, everybody has something different about them. 

Ben isn't talking about something different but having something special about them. John  believes that if a questionnaire was handed out, asking everyone to write something special about themselves - every person could answer it. Ben is talking about whether other people think they're stylish and if they add something to the room that is so special, amusing, nice, kind that they are worth having. 

Caoimhe confronts that it is also about having the courage to not go with today's fashion and have your own style (as some people don't have it in them) John understands what she's saying. Liver lips stresses that John just doesn't get it; Keevil sides with Ben that John shouldn't attack him but listen to what he has to say as most of it is quite intelligent. 

Ben is saying that when he has a party or a gathering, everyone he'd invited had something special about them. John wipes his nose while wondering aloud what the postie had that was special about him. He was a 64 year old Trinidadian postman with a beautiful singing voice, who always wore a scarf around his neck and has a nice step-daughter. 

BEN: I like people that are stars! 

Dave delivers that John is trying to work him out but Ben insists he'll never be able to and so he should give up! John thinks everyone is interesting in their own way though, well Ben doesn't as there are a lot of really dull people out there. Corin concurs with Ben that she could get to know someone and think they are so not interesting as they bore her to death and she's got nothing in common with them. 

JOHN: (keep butting heads on this issue) But someone would find that person interesting. 

But Corin wouldn't find a boring person interesting (NOT if they bored the pants very much ON her!!). Ben says it's the luxury of being an individual of choosing who you want around you for the purposes of recreation. So he's obviously going to surround himself with those who really charm him, are funny, clever and that he finds interesting - as is his right. If they weren't Ben wouldn't have them as a friend for not ticking those boxes. 

John has mates that he's been friends with since primary school, that don't necessarily have the same views and some may consider them boring but he'd still be their mate. Corin reasons that's because he likes them and gets on with them but John puts forward that you can still get along with someone who is boring. 

Corin believes that she likes to be around people who have energy and aren't negative. 'If that were the case, you'd get along with everyone.. you'd never have any arguments.. you'd just take everyone's point of view and nothing would bother ya!' John has mates that have depression but doesn't knock them back because of it. (SC) Ben uses John's example of friends from school and has two who couldn't be more different. 

At the bench, Ife feels that it is tit for tat in the bedroom and that this is how lad's bond by ripping the p*ss out of each other. She was so angry with John and Josie as she could hear their argument in her sleep, so woke up so p*ssed off! It felt like she was in a domestic violence household so she got up and shouted 'will you two shut up????' Mario chuckles that in fact she'd said 'you two are f**king idiots!!' Her head was rattled for at least 10 minutes as she'd woken up really abruptly 'and that's dangerous isn't it? To be snapped out of a sleep!'

That's the second experience she'd had like that; the first was on day 3 where she was dreaming that she was falling when all of a sudden she heard a crash and Ife thought she was dead. That morning, Ife had been asleep under the covers and Caoimhe didn't know anyone was there and was going to get in the bed, making Ife gasp. But Keevs had only been searching for Shabby's sunglasses. 

Josie joins them after dumping her.. timber and feels a trillion times better now!! :D Caoimhe congratulates her for getting that demon out of her; she'd never really realised how much it kicks off between the 2 guys. 

JOSIE: (gets it spot on) Oh but if you think about it, John loves to argue and Ben likes a debate.. They are actually in their element with each other.    

She knew how John loved trying to figure out someone he couldn't understand and that Ben relishes the opportunity to wind John up and put him down. Mario wants them both to be stuck in the small task room and left there all day!! 

Ife asks if they find it really weird sleeping in a room with loads of other people; Josie doesn't. The snoring had been really really bad the night before; Ife was already asleep but can imagine how horrible it was. The snoring she can deal with it's the waking up and breathing in the methane gas of about 6 other people. Dave is the culprit for a lot of the smelly farts and Mario is named as a close second.

MARIO: (protests) What a lying b*tch! That's character defamation, that is. Do we need to go and read that Welcome pack?

Ife would love to memorise all 13 and quote them back to BB and might do that tomorrow to get their brains stimulated. Josie has Caoimhe really determined now to win the task tomorrow when she's up for eviction and thinks it's guaranteed that she'll be up. Mario and Ife disagree and she doesn't think Shabby would have been up this week either. The reason behind her new-found determination is she knows who she wants to replace herself with. 

Whiffy warns her not to say anything and not to risk it even though Caoimhe thinks they can say this. Mario muses that they can all work it out anyway; Josie doesn't think they can as Shabby and Govan had got into trouble for it before. Keevil corrects that they had only gotten into trouble for using the code of 'pasta' to refer to Mario. Mario's not offended that they'd spoken about him but by their use of pasta instead of something cool and Italian like Lamborghini or Ferrari.

Caoimhe aww's that Josie was going to spray some of Shabby's deodrant under her pillow, as Caoimhe is currently sniffing the can up her nostril! SUBSTANCE ABUSE!! It just ticked into place for Mario and Ife who Keevil would put up, but she says it's not anything to do with what's going on in that room right then. 

The glasses they drink out of really hurt Josie's teeth! Ife bets her bottom dollar that the person Caoimhe would swap is a person she voted for. If Mario is up he may just do a Shabby and purposely fail the task so he doesn't have to pick somebody. Ife thinks something crazy is gonna happen tomorrow as there's been a lot of rule-breaking. 

Josie hopes BB put them all up and Mario and Caoimhe would prefer that. Caoimhe wants to be up as she likes the challenge. (SC) Mario was really happy to have survived but then immediately someone else has to go. Ife reminds them that even if they are absolutely loved in the house they could be completely hated outside and vice versa. But Josie doesn't think there's anyone in there who's actually hated by anyone inside the house. 

Ife just doesn't know what's been shown but really believes BB are being fair to them because of the John and Sunshine situation. As it could have been edited in a way that made John look proper bad; Caoimhe and Ife believe it was aired and shown in the way it happened or else Sunshine wouldn't have gone.

There was a point where Sunshine had shocked Ife, as she came over to her repeating ceaselessly 'I'm going, I'm going!!' and then she ran in and caused the whole scene. Ife was thinking she was joking, shook her and told her not to be a drama queen and Sunshine still said she was leaving, after Ife had seen her pout in the mirror and grin at her.  Sunshine should work at a carnival!

Both Ife and Caoimhe were planning to go as they couldn't take the pressure of being there anymore. The reason Ife had gone to go out of the door was because there wasn't an exit in the bathroom and the bedroom was locked. As she'd heard what BB had been telling Shabby and Caoimhe, she schemed to sneak out the back. When she was running towards the door she's seen a good light but the door wouldn't break, despite her punching it like mad! It was today that she'd been trying to break out because Josie and John wouldn't stop rowing and their argument stemmed from her. 

John was trying to tell Ife that Josie was happy she was going and Josie was annoyed that he tried to do that. Ife will never walk out the back door now, even after that temptation because as soon as she'd calmed down '2 minutes later, they'd kissed and made up! D*cks! You could've done that 5 minutes ago!' She'd have been vexed if she'd left then seen on the monitors that they were friends again.

Ife knows that she would have regretted it the next day without a doubt. In the bedroom, after our breather from the John and Ben barney, we are back to an adamant John that Ben couldn't tell a personality by a photo. Ben cuts in for John to let him finish that he knows a bit about modelling photos as he's been in some; he agrees with John these are a different kettle of fish because they are overly stylised. 

Ben is of the belief that he can get a sense of someones' personality from a private snapshot taken on an amateur camera, of someone relaxed. John is open to this being possible maybe from a selection of photographs but not based on a single one.

JOHN: (fixes him with a really withering stare) Ah, you are talking utter crap Ben! That is utter bullsh*t! That is bullsh*t and you know it.

Even if he saw a selection of 20 photos of someone on Facebook he could probably get an idea or make an assumption. Ben tells him to ask a psychiatrist or a psychologist!

JOHN: (Stupid Pants Ben is wrong)You are not a psychiatrist or a psychologist, Ben!!

Ben is neither but those of that profession will agree with him. John allows that maybe those who have studied the subject. Ben reiterates that most people will agree that the genuine-ness and inner nature of a person can be seen in a photograph. This conception isn't cutting it with John 'what do you mean most people would agree with that, Benny? Like a selection of professional people on the planet maybe.. people that have studied that sh*t! Not normal people like me and Stevo just kicking around can not pick up on that. How can you even say that Benny?'

BEN: (shoots John a disapproving look) Let me have my opinion. It's my opinion. If you don't agree with it, you don't agree with it. 

John turns around to disclose to Dave that he just brought up the picture BB took of Baron as an example 'you can't tell me that you could pick his personality off that! He looks like a killer in that picture!!' Stevo sniggers but Ben reckons he could tell Steve was a nice person from that picture - even Steve himself says that is bullsh*t.

Nathan harks up that to a certain extent it is true and obviously it doesn't work on all pictures 'but you can see the f**king monk on his picture that he is a f**king (SC) John consents to a certain degree, this is what Seahorse means he can't totally and whole-heartedly agree. This whole thing stinks Steve tells ya 'you could be looking at a f**king mass murderer!'

Nate says that the Monk's picture matches his personality; John reminds him that this is what BB tried to do as Govan's photo had summed him up brilliantly. Dave returns that the photographer didn't know what type of person he was but John accounts that 500 photos were taken in a second! 

Dave asks if John is trying to tell them that someone tried to match up a personality from 500 photos 'oh that's the one!' John thinks they did different things for different people - some matched their personalities, others didn't. Like he said, Baron's looks like he just got out of prison and doesn't sum up Steve's personality at all! Steve had his black eye on his photo presumably this is what made him look like a Bond villain.

John cruises on that Ben had reputed that he could pick the personality off every photo. Ben now goes back on this that he couldn't for every photo but would be able to in the majority of cases. (SC) John can't believe he's hearing the sh*t that comes out of Ben's mouth; Ben tells John he thinks about things in a black and white way and is very simple in the way he looks at things. 

JOHN: I do. I am very black and white. 

Nathan broaches to John that he knows full well they agree on a lot of sh*t and have very, very, very similar personalities but he can also go with what Ben is saying as well. John is still trucking that he can understand this to a degree but Ben had just said to him most people on the planet, can tell a person from one photo! Seahorse speaks about killers having dead eyes and Dave says 'the eyes are the window of the soul.' He believes you can look into someone's eyes and the light and life come out through this gateway and you can get a lot from looking into eyes.  (SC)

In a lad's mag, it had a spot the killer segment with photos all in a similar style and Nathan could f**king see and tell. You are not told that they are killers from Kansas in the 50's or whatever but you can kinda tell they have a bad thing about them. 

Dave and his church go out on the streets to give out free spiritual readings and straight away can see lots of things in their eyes and tell them about their life. He has a friend that does lots of astro-traveling visiting planets and realms and planets can be seen in his eyes, they look like globes. In eyes, you can see: fear, anxiety, paranoia and love etc. One of Dave's friends is the most generous, loving guy anyone can ever meet and balls of love can be seen in his eyes. 

Nathan wouldn't go to the extent that Dave did but shares similar views to him. Outside, Ife confesses to Corin that the more relaxed she gets in there the more rules she breaks free-willingly. At first, she saw it as a competition and that they should stick to the rules because that's how you play a game but now she feels it's okay to break them. She's a good girl gone bad as she wouldn't have dreamt of breaking a rule the first couple of days and then this afternoon she was hammering a door down!!

She can't believe she couldn't break it though as it should be easy to and a man shouldn't be needed if there's a fire. Ife had so much adrenaline running through her; Corin thanks God it didn't open as she'd have wanted to go back. Ife agrees especially as John and Josie had made up 2 minutes later and if she'd have just stayed in with them another 5 minutes she'd have seen everything was alright. Instead she'd walked out half way through as she was sick of it and visualised herself running into someone's arms saying 'saving me!' 

This was her moment of madness and she knows she would have regretted it waking up tomorrow. (SC) She'd told Terry it was fine for him to go to Ibiza with the lads while she was there so would have been gutted if she'd left and he wasn't in the country! She thinks that would be the worst thing that could ever happened to anyone - leaving and having no one there for them. That would have killed her if Terry wasn't at home crying and missing her. 

JOHN: (strikes him as deeply dysfunctional) Somehow he's made me feel like I'm the alien!

Dave decides to help John out because he knows he gets a bit paranoid and thinks about things a lot. Fauntleroy would have to admit that a lot of what he did with Corin was winding John up big time and acting stuff out for effect. John demands to know from Benny if it was and would he agree with that but Ben merely laughs.

Josie deliberately knocks into John on her way back from the closet, laughing but apologises instantly as he falls against his bed. Dave tries to get Ben to admit it or else John will continue to think he's really like this. John had thought Caoimhe left the room because of his f**king ranting.

CAOIMHE: Oh God, no! You do rant an awful lot though. 

John understands what she's saying that Ben does bring up some valid points but a lot of it is bullsh*t; she disgrees and Dave jokes that she's been sucked in and Ben will have her running around for him! Steve laughs that Ben's mesmerised her but she has her own opinions and just happens to agree with some of what Ben says. She won't agree with everything just because Ben's her friend but she does think he has a very, very raw mind. 

John has his leg up on Josie's bed while chatting with Caoimhe but we head back outside. Ife is imagining something that could really put a rift in her relationship with Terry and how she'd yell for him to get back on a plane as she needs him now!! Now this has given Ife food for thought that they should leave on a Friday when they're supposed to as any of their people could be doing anything right now.                                 

Josie is brushing her teeth very thoroughly and frothily in the main bathroom when BB calls her to the Diary room. So she hurriedly rinses and spits up in the sink before heading there. (long SC out at the bench) Corin goes back inside to see if she can find something a bit sweet and Ife blames her for waking them up as she now feels wide awake! (SC) Ife and Mario follow after shortly to guess what the time is on the clock - Ife's is 2.25am and Mario guesses 1am. They scare the life out of Corin who has been unsuccessful in her quest for sweet sustenance in the kitchen. 

She doesn't fancy honey or a scoopful of Crunchy Nut so OMG she is so going to bed. Ben and John really like each other - they just don't seem to like anything each other says or does. And frankly, as they continue their bickerings in the bedroom I am finding them both to be giant, whining bummers!! :D John prefers to be black and white which is why he relates to someone like Stevo but not Ben. 

BEN: (he's an ass clown!!) Yeah Steve's black and white but he's not aggressive. But you're black and white and you are aggressive. 

I cannot stress enough that not once has John been aggressive in manner or tone with Ben throughout this ongoing squabble. John laughs that he thought Ben would have a new word to bring into this. Ben blathers on that Steve would not lie there in bed and say bullsh*t to everything he disagreed with. 

JOHN: (as a friend, John has to tell Ben that he's full of crap) He's just not as opinionated; he would rather just sit there and shake his head and think that you're a looney bin, rather than say something! I would rather say something.

Ben feels Steve is entitled to do so; John knows but this is where he and Steve are different. Ben grants that this is because Steve has the social intelligence to know where to draw the line and not pipe up about something 'and you don't.' John doesn't see this as intelligence as it depends on whether you give a f**k but Caoimhe would agree with Ben on this.

“Every day I see something else in him that makes me just admire him even more - he doesn't always express himself in the most eloquent way, and his arguments aren't always that well structured - but he really seems to have thought a lot of things through in his life and appears genuinely interested in finding out what makes other people tick - that's all he's doing when he's 'arguing.'

Ben - on the other hand - is totally uninterested in anything and anybody other than himself; IMO he makes no effort to contribute to activities (such as tasks) which he has already pre-judged to be beneath him or of no value to him; and he couldn't care less about other peoples' views or feelings unless there's something in it for him. 

There are lots of people, and things, that I encounter in my every day life that I might otherwise consider to be boring or of no interest - but sometimes you have to just get on with it on the basis that you might actually learn something - or that in listening or participating you might actually be doing something for someone else, rather than there always having to be something in it for you.......Ben doesn't see any of that...” (Siobhan JJJAT)

JOHN: It's only social intelligence as far as you are willing to go with it. Like I don't give a f**k.

It's not that he has a lack of knowing about social intelligence but a lack of not doing anything about it! Caoimhe considers social intelligence to be one of the most important types of intelligence out there because you could be book smart, but not know how to work a room or strike up a conversation, to be open with people and listen to them. 

JOHN: (By this logic she 2/3 sucks!!) Are you saying that I don't know how to do that? Because noone would be here if they didn't have that level. 

Caoimhe claims that John gets one thing into his head and goes off on that and doesn't see other sides to stories. They all agree that Sunshine didn't have social intelligence but was superior in her smartness. John feels he must have some level of social intelligence because if he didn't float around and talk to others, he'd be secluded to one or two people in there. 

JOHN: But what you're saying is, social intelligence - you won't open your mouth to avoid conflict because that's social intelligence is that what you're saying? 

Nathan assesses that it's knowing when saying something will upset someone and keeping opinions to yourself to keep the ambiance of a room going. Dave thinks it is about humility and harnessing opinions and Caoimhe adds that it is having a poise as well. John thinks it is a matter of him being opinionated (as opposed to socially unintelligent) and he knows he is opinionated but doesn't go out of his way to upset a room - but it has happened time and time again in that house. 

Keevil feels that the house drives them mental and they can't always be intelligent socially as they are all living there 24/7. She illustrates this with her walking into a party or a meeting but John wrangles this is totally different. Caoimhe counterclaims that it's not - it's life and life skills! John has seen people walk out of the room as they can't deal with the situation but he doesn't think they're not socially intelligent because they've left. 

Ben clarifies that John disagrees with him and is entitled to any opinion he wants but goes on and on and on, repeating himself again and again. John crows this is because Ben was repeating the same questions but Ben thinks it is a lack of social intelligence on John's part, as he doesn't drop it like the Baron does. For John this isn't necessarily to cause arguments but is more curiosity which Ben strongly disputes.

Caoimhe butts in that John actually is trying to cause an argument which he refutes, so she asks why his curiosity has to sound so aggressive and as though his way is the only way. John states that it may come across as that but overall it is curiosity and he was literally curious about Sunshine's ways as a vegan; he hadn't meant to upset her although it sometimes had but he was curious about how she operated. 

CAOIMHE: (Oh NO she didn't just say that!!) The issue of her name, right.. you took to a different level. 

JOHN: Cos I'm very curious, yeah. 

To Caoimhe, that hadn't sounded curious but was almost dissing her for choosing to come in with that name. John 100% agrees with that as he was curious as to why someone would come in and do that. Ben keeps the hits coming that this is a lack of social intelligence because it's about boundaries and knowing how far you can tease someone, so you're both enjoying it and getting the information you want. 'And having a laugh!

John would stop when the person indicated they were p*ssed off. Dave thinks it's the difference between having knowledge and wisdom and John has so much knowledge and information with his curiosity 'but then it's having the wisdom to be able to apply that into a situation so no one gets upset and everyone benefits from it.'

And that's what they are all learning - this is what Dave perceives to be the issue 'it's not that you're aggressive or angry or anything like that.. it's just having that wisdom to be able to manage a situation better.' John voices that as sh*t as arguing is and they can obviously tell that he can argue and argue and argue - that from an argument you learn things about peoples' opinions. 

Caoimhe and Ben concur but feel there is a difference between discussions, debates and arguments. John has learned heaps of stuff from Ben in the last 5 minutes alone! Keevil kicks up that he needs to see the 2 sides to a story and come to a civilized conclusion and not make his way out to be the only way possible. John doesn't think he does that

BEN: (thus saith the bitchiest b*tch to ever bitch!!) And you used ridicule which is the cheapest form of debate!

Ben can't remember the exact sentence, but John had called out 'that's bullsh*t!' every other sentence and 'if you said that to any of my friends back home..' and kept referring to his mates in Oz. John only did as Ben had said he had Australian friends which Ben had only mentioned as John continuously told him that no one in Australia would take him seriously! 'You basically implied I'd be laughed off the continent!'

This was off the back of Ben's behaviour with Corin and feeding her chocolate. Ben does feel John lacks social intelligence because that intelligence would have said he'd tease Ben once or twice, then listen to what he said and then ask him a couple of genuine questions before calling it a night. John is scolded for interrupting when he tells Ben he has asked genuine questions as Ben disagrees that he had.

Dave asks John how many times he's had an argument with someone and after it's over he has gleaned some sort of information or understanding and really benefited from it and is glad about that. 

JOHN: Every single time. 

The question continues 'but at the same time you wish you hadn't have upset the person?' John admits he's wished this a lot of times but sometimes he just doesn't care. Dave says that what he has to ask himself is 'is there a way of gaining that information and understanding, without upsetting the person?' Dave sees this as the deal because it doesn't have to go to that point all the time - he has to be the sane one in the conversation. 

John's view is that this comes from getting to know the person and their limits and buttons. Ben brings Josie into the discussion as she is John's best friend and he's known them both for 3 weeks now (closer to one month) and that he says things to both of them in such a way that is upsetting and not very nice. So either he is really thick (which Ben doesn't think he is) or he has a severe lack of social intelligence where after 3 weeks he doesn't know what is acceptable to bring up and what isn't. 

But John feels that Ben has pushed certain boundaries with him as well yet he wouldn't say it was a lack of social intelligence. When John told Ben not to say certain things about the travel and his Mum etc. as John had gotten very upset, Ben thought about it afterwards and hasn't done that since then. He accepts that he'd try to score points in a slightly cheaply and that's the whole point, he'd learned from something John said.

John felt this was because Ben hadn't known him well enough as a person to know where his boundaries were. Caoimhe calls failing the most important thing in life because they learn from it and nobody can go through their lives doing everything perfectly; John doesn't disagree with that. Ben pinpoints that what they're saying is when he has a run in with someone, rather than thinking about what's upset them and trying to moderate his behaviour - he does it again and again and again (either to him or someone else).. 'so you know none of us like it when you get aggressive.'

JOHN: Certain things affect different people differently. 

Brings back the example of Ben telling him to his face that he'd happily have them live off chickpeas, lentils and rice for the duration of the show because he didn't want to do a task. Ben lies that he'd never said that and it was in reference to a task that involved Dave so he's already butting into something that didn't fundamentally concern him. 

Dave and Steve back John up that it would have concerned John if Dave had refused because they'd have been on basic food rations and had no suitcases back. Ben brands this as a different debate and that John had become involved because he enjoys an argument; John reminds him that Nate and Steve got involved as well and they don't enjoy one. This is where Ben says social intelligence comes into play because those boys know when to tease, disagree and when to draw the line but John doesn't. 

It had got to the point where Ben was stood on the bed defending his stance on politics,  because it was something Ben believed in strongly and they weren't being entirely serious. Ben has to say he likes John enormously but he rows in the same way with the same aggression over and over and it p*sses them all of off. 'You upset Josie not because of what you were saying but the way you were saying it!' 

Therefore Ben opts to be of the opinion that John lacks the social intelligence by not learning from it. Josie is back, Caoimhe wants to say one thing but not get that involved because she doesn't know John that well but thinks he is a great guy. John doesn't think any of them know each other well enough but Caoimhe thinks it's great that he stands up for what he believes in blah blah.. 

She is certain that he didn't have social intelligence during the wheelchair basketball and he had absolutely no respect for Steve as a coach. She prattles on that they'd been given 2 shots to do their practise hoops but John had pushed the boundaries trying to score hoops, when they were supposed to listen to and respect their coach. John states that if they were out on a football park, 'no one would have more respect for a coach than I. I'm more aware of team sport probably more so than anyone in the room.'

CAOIMHE: (setting fire to feel joy) So you weren't a team player there! You weren't! You cannot stand up and say that you were a team player in that game.

John regards it as a bit different playing a game for fun in the BB house as opposed to playing football professionally. Caoimhe was shocked at how he behaved that day; John asks Stevo if he had been too. 

STEVE: (droll) Not knowing you, no. 

John was right that he didn't think he would have been. Ben trusts that people would expect John to be arrogant in that way but Steve's not surprised so John doesn't see what the problem is. John thinks they'll notice that when Steve was giving talks - he was the most involved. 

Caoimhe asks out loud whether the point she'd made was fair. Steve agrees it was but if that had been in his real training sessions, John wouldn't have got away with it. Neither would John have behaved that way but Caoimhe reasons that they should have treated it as real life because she took it as a serious thing. John doubts Steve would have picked him if he didn't take it seriously and doesn't believe Steve is the sort of bloke who would have picked him otherwise. 

JOHN: If anything, I think Steve picked me because he knew I was going to take it very seriously. Is that right Steve? (Steve yeps) Thank you.

 

Ben gives John the stink eye that Steve would have also known that John would have been devastated to not be selected and this shows that Steve has social intelligence, as he knows that would have really hurt John. Josie flops into bed singing 'alright Keevy?' It wouldn't have hurt John and he'd asked Steve to let him know if he made the selection so he knew if he needed to get band aids. John supposes that Steve would have played who he thought was most enthused to play.

Caoimhe can guarantee that in real life John would not have been chosen. Ben criticises that John wasn't the best and Steve would have chosen the best. Caoimhe croons that Steve should have chosen her as she was really, really good and took it very seriously. Dave decides that Josie was in the running to play that day too. 

JOHN: You say that I wasn't very good at a sport that you know nothing about. But ask Dave..

Ben quizzes John on why he'd missed so many baskets; John sneers back that if he were aware of any team sport he'd know that the goalkeeper doesn't score but that doesn't mean he's not the best player. This is where John picks up on Ben's lack of team sport intelligence and how players have to adapt to the situations. So just because someone is not the best shooter, without him the team wouldn't have won.

Quiff turns to Dave to see if he thinks this is true; Dave determines it is as John was all over the opposition and did a really good job in defence. Ben doesn't claim to have any sporting intelligence and John doesn't claim to have any social intelligence. Caoimhe chimes in that they're not talking about sporting intelligence but emotional; John answers back that she was the one who'd brought sport up.

She had lodged this complaint because intelligence comes into sporting and that it's knowing how to have respect for people. Keevil felt it was clear that day that John had no respect for Steve; John points out that Steve must have felt he had a certain level of respect for him or he wouldn't have played him. Ben barks at John not to put Steve on the spot like that! Caoimhe thinks Steve just proved what she was trying to say, that, that he wouldn't have gotten away with that in the real world. 

When John replies that he wouldn't have behaved like that in the real world - Caoimhe and Ben interrogate him on why he had done so during that task. John hadn't believed it would have mattered if he'd played or not but knew Steve took it very seriously and had said so in the Diary room. This is where he came back out and paid full attention as he wasn't aware Steve was going to take it so seriously. And if he was coaching whatever it would have been up to that person. 

Dave thinks Steve was told by BB who to pick! John would be quite happy to write up his resume and not put socially intelligent - he doesn't really care. He'd happily write down 'does not have social intelligence' as it's not a real, big important part of his life. Either everyone else in the room is already asleep or they are laying low on this topic.

Caoimhe and Ben put it to John that other aspects of social intelligence are: being sensitive to the feelings of others and lack of caring. But at the end of the day John would never have done that to a friend and would rather hold his head up high, knowing what he would do for his friend than have being socially intelligent as a quality.

In the lounge, Ife (Sumo - 600lbs of pure b*tch with nipples the size of dinner plates) and Mario (aka The Virgin Mary with lots of class and a tiny arse) are wrestling with couch cushions and self-commentate that every man is going down, down, down! 'When Sumo wears high heels she comes back in flip flops!' Ife regains her breath and then counts down '3, 2, 1' before they run at each other and attack.

Ife is quick to flip Mario off the sofa and gloats screechily that they don't need to do the best of 3 because she won the first two! They don't think Mary was a virgin but a dirty slut and that's why Mario likes her. They've had their little exercise now lasting half an hour. They don't think BB has time for them as they've not been called into the Diary room so plan to sit quietly and solemnly by the door. Ife doesn't want Mario's hairy bum on her towel but he's going to stand up!

He cheekily bares his buttocks to prove to Ife that he has a smooth bum!! ;) There's a rash on one side and a spot on the other cheek; he calls Ife a violent cow as the rash has come up because she dragged him on the rug a moment before!! You are welks for the visual :D She takes full credit for it and laughs that Sunshine most probably put the rule book in her suitcase and took it out with her as she read it every day! The Diary room door clicks open (SC) and we get to watch the button flashing brightly for 30 seconds before returning to the bedroom. 

Ben owns up to saying things without thinking last week that had upset John, has apologised and will never go near that area again he hopes. He's not going to say never, never because that would make him a liar and he's learnt from it. But what he will say to John is that he is kind 'but your aggression verges on cruelty not just to me but everyone. So all I'm saying to you is that you need to work on that and I know you can because you are kind .. and you're not stupid but you are cruel sometimes.'

This is what Dave had been saying about humility being an ability to restrain yourself and that's what people will look at and really honour more. He's not making a judgment as he wants to learn these things himself - having great skill and strength so as not to hurt or offend anybody. Ben respects that John felt his opinion about photos was silly and ridiculous but he made him feel that his opinions were worth sh*t! 

But in the same respect, Ben has insulted John time after time after time including in this conversation calling him thick and not bright. John argues that various comments they make are below the belt to each other - this is where common courtesy goes out the window! Ben cites it as a factual mode of behaviour that John had kept on dismissing his opinion as bullsh*t without even listening. This is why John had piped up because Ben had already labelled him as stupid and not bright. 

BEN: Anyway, good night Johnny. Sleep well. 

JOSIE: (giggles with Caoimhe) Look what you've been missing!!

John says sorry to Stevo who has brought proceedings to a halt by saying anyone with social intelligence, would have this chat outside whilst HM's were trying to sleep. Ben closes the toilet door shutting out the light that John had not finished with. Ben wittily apologises as this was a lack of social intelligence! :D The Gibson gibbers with hysterics!

JOHN: (Oh Benjaminge you disgust me!) Walking around with your penis hanging out of your knees is a lack of social intelligence!!

John isn't interested in seeing Ben's schnitzel and this is behaviour from Benjy that I would like to outlaw!! Ben banters that John wishes his own penis would :P What does makes Josie laugh is that the second day they were in there, Ben had it straight out in his pants walking around!! He begs her pardon for not covering up but Josie thinks it's quite funny but not that it's small or anything, just how he'd taken his jeans off. 

Ben had laid at the bottom of her bed and she could see the outline of his widger; he again extends apologies for being untasteful. She laughs that she doesn't care or mind, she likes weighing everyone up ;) 

BEN: Okay baby, night night. (John smiles over at Josie)

Dave has noticed that the past week or so and Josie proclaims that she's not a pervert or anything. John warns Ben that he's just warming up with his firing; Ben doesn't ingratiate himself by telling John he has a long way to go. 

As John undresses, Baron bites for Dave to take his social intelligence outside as it's bed time. Dave is the most socially intelligent person Ben has ever met; Josie thought he said she was! Ben swaps Josie to being probably the kindest person he's ever known.

JOSIE: (lowly at Ben's complementini) Kind? Me?? I didn't know that. 

Steve snickers that she's that kind she lets someone do all the washing up, while she sits on her arse with her f**king thumb in her mouth! 

JOSIE: (mock outrage at Steve's rudeyment) 'Ere you!! Talking up there in the corner!

She'd done all the washing up last night and some tonight as she loves washing up. Really it was Josie and Ife that put all the other HM's to shame in the house cleaning department! Dave requests a night of non-snoring tonight; Steve utters that might be f**king nigh on impossible! Dave and John are ready to wear the red suits tomorrow in the save and replace task, presuming that they are up for eviction. 

Caoimhe warns the two of them to watch out as she's going to kick ass tomorrow! John might just go to the Diary room first thing in the morning and ask for his jump suit. Keevil hopes it is a socially intelligent task so they will go down! If this is the case, Dave just needs to know if it would be socially intelligent for them to put his picture up. 

JOHN: You're going up Davo! We already agreed - 100%! (lovely zoomed in shot of him scratching his crotch and the pleasure is all ours) We don't wanna break the streak, you're going up monk!

Dave wants to be given a rest after being up every single week but he jokes that he is ready to face his fans outside! John re-ties the string on his shorts as Dave encourages them that there's bound to be someone in there they dislike more than him. 

JOHN: (revolted) Still smells like balls in here though!! 

JOSIE: Sweaty balls?        

John has a mate that suffers from SBS - sweaty ball sack! Dave and Josie do miss Sunshine; John loves how he and Caoimhe are keeping quiet there. Josie doesn't know how John can say that when they used to wet themselves at her. 

JOHN: (a broken girl will do anything to try and bring attention to herself and she got it) Oh yeah, we were definitely laughing at her, yeah. (knocks on the bedroom toilet door before entering through force of habit, despite knowing nobody is in there)

He probably always thought that 'good' strange species such as Sunshine were made up like goblins and trolls! Baron the naughty boy 'fesses to his flatulence - his social intelligence was sharing it with the group. Dave nicknames Josie as 'farmer girl' and 'chicken choker' as she and Kiev chuckle in bed together. He asks Caoimhe to wake him up if Josie starts speaking in her sleep about him as he heard her before twice but was half asleep. 

John is out asking if any of them have any spare pillows; he fetches two from Caoimhe and Shabby's old double bed. When getting into his own single bed he curses 'you f**ker!' then apologises for kicking his ankle against the bed when Steve tells him he does this every night, before bowing out.

JOSIE: (badgering) John James is quite like ..hillbillyish isn't he? 

Caoimhe agrees so John snipes back 'f**k off Caoimhe! Josie gets away with it but she's a sh*t-stirring b*tch you don't have to agree with her!!' Josie imitates a Cowboy and Western drawl when saying his name so he relents that of course it does when she says it like that. 

JOSIE: (still mickey-taking with the accent) There's a chicken in the barn, John James! 

John starts to say 'Josie Gibson' nasally, incensed at her nerve to call him a hillbilly when she walks around with a flannel neck shirt on! Caoimhe can picture John in one of those hats with straw sticking out of his mouth; he would refuse to wear anything like that! (SC) Dave reckons 5 or 6 people will be up tomorrow which John immediately rubbishes 'oh there will not!' but he ignores this to say that a stack of people will be on two votes but one person will get 4. 

Facing the public vote, John thinks is good as it gives them a crack to see how they go. (Long SC) Dave was up against Shabby and Sunshine each time and didn't think that was much competition to be honest - as Sunshine had her head in the clouds and all Shabby's passion and energy didn't get out there. 

John thought she did alright on the scooter; Caoimhe wishes she'd seen that as she was locked in the task room being punished at the time. Dave jests that he'd have still been there now trying to get through; John had predicted that Sunshine would have completed the puzzle faster as it wasn't that hard. Especially since she'd bragged about having an IQ of 140!

Mario (who should be in MENSA) worked it out as soon as they sat down. Dave justifies that it was really tough solving it upside down, his own was difficult as he had the poxy Monk's robe on so everything was brown. He doesn't want to do it again tomorrow as it's flippin' horrible and it would be the third time he'd have to put someone up! Dave doesn't blame anyone voting for him and is getting quite used to it but he seriously doesn't want to be in the position of banging someone's face up on the ding dong! 

He was really upset when he swapped Caoimhe's face; Caoimhe cautions that he'd said again yesterday that he loved her 'so none of that sh*t again!!' He assures Caoimhe she'll have a reprieve and he'll pick someone else; John laughs that he can't pick him as he'll be up there with him 'you can't put my face up there twice!' 

Dave doesn't realise that Ireland cannot phone in and vote and exclaims to Caoimhe that there's no point putting her up because she'll have the whole of Ireland voting for her. And also that would imply that they were ringing in to have her evicted since at that point in the show it was not a vote to save!! He'd been gutted and regretted making that mistake straight away the week previously, though Caoimhe was 'happy' to be up. 

He knew Caoimhe was safe and Sunshine was gone when they started booing Moonbeam during Ben's 90 second spiel. Dave would like to face John in one of the tasks as it'd be fun, they'd have a laugh and just be competitive because they're competitive - not to avoid eviction. John's honestly contemplating throwing the task as his own personal opinion is that if the public don't want them in - there's no point staying. But on the other hand, he doesn't know if he could as he'd want to win.                              

Caoimhe brown noses the Bristolian that she's f**king hilarious and the best at doing her Irish accent! John will suss it out tomorrow and see who's up tomorrow and how he feels but there's literally no one he could swap the pic with, even if he won. On if he were to throw the task - in a creepy ironic sort of way 'What's the worst that they could do? Because you're already up for eviction .. they can't put you up again, cos you're already up!'

John yawns and wishes them all a good night (SC) he lays down in bed, beaming over at Josie, who already has a hold on his heart that he could not break even if he wanted to. Caoimhe didn't think John had something in him.

JOSIE: (aww his name is engraved on her heart) Yeah, he's funny on the quiet, that's why I love him!

JOHN: (thinks them impertinent for cottoning onto his comedy so slowly) I hate the way that we've been here for a month, and people are just starting to say now that I'm really funny! 

Keevil had always thought he was funny but a moany, little sh*t! John actually agreed with what Davo said because he'd summed it up a bit better than Benny 'as socially intelligent as he is!' about how he's got it in him and just needs to learn to control it and not over do it.

Josie shares her worries with Caoimhe that her teeth will be so bucked when she gets out as she's sucked her thumb so much. Tomorrow she's going to ask for stuff to stop it but Caoimhe suggests that she wear a sock on her hand like she does. Dave implores him that he needs to harness his knowledge for the betterment of whatever it is at the time. One of the interpretations of humility in the dictionary - is of a wild stallion with all the strength and power it needs but is able to be harnessed with a bridle.

DAVE: It's knowing that you've got the goods under the hood but being able to harness it, so you're not destroying people and you're actually blessing people and encouraging people. 

He'd seen the same cockiness and arrogance in John on the basketball court as Caoimhe had - knowing that he had the ability but portraying himself in a way that made him look like a total fool. John knows what he's saying but just didn't care enough to take the task seriously but had felt bad when Caoimhe said he'd shown Steve a lack of respect. John does care about that because he does respect Steve as a person a lot. 

With some of the Sunshine stuff, Dave felt John had the ability to blow her out of the water - John admits to only having a certain level of respect with her. Caoimhe tells John not to worry as she's no saint and hasn't had much respect for some things as well and they've all done things they regret. 

In John's own defence, he laid off Sunshine but Dave and Benjy continued on and rallied for him to get involved in the teasing as she'd just said she had vegan bacon. So obviously they wanted him on the anti-vegan team and when they called him over he was going to unleash. For most of this conversation we see a shot of Davina McCaw until Mario and Ife come back out of the Diary room. 

Mario rebukes Ife for ruining his dream but she persists that men who sound like that are not single! He finds the welcome pack behind the back of the sofa. She chases after him in the kitchen and sprays him with anti-bacteria spray for being so filthy. He calls her a fool as he's wearing John's jumper then wastes some of the coriander by throwing it in her face!         

She's laughing now that it's landed on the floor though it means more work for her to clean up (which is why Mario finds it well funny) but she'll be vexed in the morning. Ife doesn't understand the word 'no' when Mario says he doesn't want to know about a documentary she'd watched. She shares all the same that a little boy had lost all feeling and been paralysed when a chair had been pulled from underneath him. Ife doesn't want Mario to do this to her and is telling him because she imagines it's something he would do. 

Little things like this really really worry her and she feels inclined to spend a day telling him everywhere she is injured - both her knees are literally ripped to shreds and give way all the time. Anywhere is allowed but not her knee; they war with kitchen utensils in a gentlemanly manner.  Ife rejoices that she'd told Mario there'd be tears before bedtime.

Ife gets Mario to run his hand onto cold water as the mean girl has injured him, then wants him to put the kettle on so she can have a hot water with honey. They ponder going back to the Diary room to ask BB to open the store room for some milk as they've run out. (SC) They call a truce on the violence and shall try not to fight for the rest of the night. 

Mario believes each BB do 8 hour shifts. Ife feels sorry for one they'd just spoken to as she had before when she was out of her mind and the BB must have wanted her to get to the f**king point! She now has a sugar rush from the lemonade and whatever else she had; she threatens Mario that she will switch if he puts his fart cupcake in her face. This is an impossible impulse for him to resist especially after she describes it as the most disrespectful, scabby and childish thing anyone has ever done to her in 25 years of living! 

Ife supposes that she may be very self-centred; Mario tells her she's a violent meglomaniac! They go outside to marvel at the moon and each make a wish on a star but the greedy cow makes about 5!! She hopes Terry is looking at the same moon in the proper clear sky :D Mario gives her a bit of moon trivia that it moves a quarter of an inch away from the Earth every year. She already knew as Terry is really into science and gives her 6/7 interesting facts every day. 

They discuss the Higgins particle (otherwise known as the God particle) and Hydrogen Collider (they mean Hadron) and black holes etc. Ife really listened to what Mario was saying to try and understand and thinks she has the gist but a lot of the words he'd used she didn't have a clue what he was talking about! She understood that the Government were running tests and the portrayal to the public focused on one aspect to create more excitement. The Collider had a lot of technical problems and had to be shut down for a long time. From this they want to understand how the universe was created and it will be a massive scientific discovery if this theoretical particle can be found. 

MARIO: (he is unfixable) I've got to stop scratching my testicles on TV!

Ife also has been scratching at her nunu/flower/goblin cave/Minnie Mouse/birth orifice! Quick cut of John asking Baron how he'd feel about wearing the red jumpsuit tomorrow and is told he can f**k off!! Nathan joins them for a smoke and they again resume the science lecture and Ife says she won't be using the word subdued in her vocabulary - after Mario had taught her how to pronounce it. 
 
MARIO: (he's grown to accept her idiosyncrasies) Ife only has two words in her vocabulary – me and I! Sharing, selflessness, generosity these are all alien concepts to Ife. 

Seahorse is gone just as quickly as he came out. One of the top things Ife loves about the BB house is there not being a need to rush as there's no urgency. It has helped her understand why people are laid-back as on the outside she is very highly strung and intense. Master body behaviourist Ife saw the half semi-look that killers have in John James the night  he blew up at Rachael and she didn't know what to do!!

Mario and Ife determine that their friendship is based upon bullsh*t and not honesty. Mars wonders whether she's ever seriously considered professional help. Ife has a real thing about human body fluids anywhere near her; it makes her feel sick and would be scrubbing herself for hours if he'd flicked the foam from his mouth on her. The hardest thing she's finding in this house is how unhygienic everyone else is and the filth. She thinks she's done quite well in there considering she hates dirt and could have freaked out a lot more in there.

Ife doesn't regret saying she doesn't want to talk to the girls 7 times and going up an octave each time! Mario had been sitting on the deckchair at the time thinking 'oh sh*t it's all gonna kick off' and he didn't want to get involved in 3 girls arguing. She's glad she can laugh at it now but knows she'd have said so many things she didn't need to - if she had spoken to them at the time. Mario's face actually hurts from laughing so much! Mario leaves to do a number 2 in the outside toilet while Ife applies her cream. 

Whiffy tries to murder a fly with cleaning fluids doing little screeches as she does so. She couldn't crush it so Mario becomes an accessory to the murder by exterminating it! Ife picks up John's hoodie since Mario has no regards for anyone's personal belongings. They feel like a married couple who don't have sex :D The f**king snoring has woken up Nathan and Corin gets up as it is so loud to go for a fag. They can't cope!

Corin is gutted that it is now 4.30am and Nate can't believe how fast Dave and Steve fall asleep as he hasn't had any kip! Ife had stuffed toilet roll in her ears before and that worked a treat to make the best out of a bad situation. She explains to them how she and Mario played Gladiators and beat the crap out of each other, to whack each other off the couch, duel style. 

Nathan is offered a chance to jump in bed with Corin because of the snorers but she is turned down. BB had given Corin something which has helped her rash to go down in just one day. They feel like it is morning and that they should be waking up to have a brew; then the girls finally settle down into bed for a few brief hours of slumber. 

Mario and Ife bicker for a bit in bed before Mario tells the crazy witch to go to sleep, after she fails to suffocate him with her pillow. She declines his invitation to be cuddled by him with the excuse of having a bad back. Steve is snoring like a buzz saw in the house of horrors before the E4 live feed comes to a close.
