After over 60 days in the house, Sheila has finally won her first challenge and first taste of power. On last Wednesday we were left with the houseguests dangling in their “torture chambers” as they vied for HoH. Sharon was the first to drop out, citing that she hurt her back the night before. For some reason I think Sharon throws a bunch of these challenges. She knows she’ll go up but seeing her streak, she also stays each and every time. After about two hours the deal making began. Sheila wanted the HoH badly but Natalie and Ryan knew they to be safe. Sheila told Ryan fairly early that she wouldn’t put him up since he saved her, but Natalie was a different story. Natalie was worried Sheila would put her up so Sheila promised her she wouldn’t be nominated. When Adam and Sharon returned outside Ryan quickly dropped. This mean Natalie should have dropped to give Sheila the win. But Natalie took her good old time, saying she couldn’t do it since she wasn’t a quitter.

After about 30 minutes of Natalie wavering back and forth and asking “what would Jesus do”, she dropped down giving Sheila the win. I’m happy for Sheila as she has been playing an interesting game and could possibly win. It was obvious who she would put up, Adam and Sharon, so they spent the rest of the episode promoting the “Natalie has lied to everyone” bit. It was all about Natalie and her lies and basicially securing the votes for her to go. The plan is for Adam to come off the block and Natalie going up and out. Although that was the center of the show, Sheila’s HoH room played a huge one as well. She was the only one to not see her family since the show began so it was nice to see her react to that. All in all it was a pretty good episode. Will the plan to get Natalie out work? Find out next Wednesday when I’ll tell you!
