Big Brother 9 is quickly coming to an end and tonight we reached the second to last episode where the final two was crowned. The show began where the last left off as Adam, Ryan and Sheila were hanging on for dear life as a stream of water wanted to push them down a steep slope. As the challenge progressed we learned that Sheila almost drowned in Hawaii several years ago and she had a deep fear of water. It wasn’t that apparent though until she finally let go some 36 minutes into the endurance challenge. Knowing that he had to get back onto Ryan’s good side, Adam gave up as well giving Ryan the first win of the three part HoH.

It was then down to Sheila and Adam to compete in the second part of the HoH. It was a very interesting one and one of the best the series has had. What they had to do was spin in a giant hamster wheel to maneuver several balls through a maze on the inside of the wheel. These balls had names of the previous HoHs on them and they had to then align them in the order people on Head of Household. Through the power of editing it made it seem as Adam and Sheila both performed equally well in the challenge, although Sheila did stumble a few times. In the end Adam pulled out a victory beating Sheila by half of her time. This mean that Adam and Ryan would compete in the live final part of the HoH.

Before the last HoH and eviction could occur we were shown a glimpse of the past as I mentioned last night. They showed Adam telling Ryan that Sharon was the better person to evict, showing that Ryan did in fact know that Sharon was leaving. They also showed Adam promising Sheila and Ryan that he would go to the end with them. It was interesting to see since Ryan entered only as Sheila left and Adam switched gears just as fast.

Next up was the jury house which I was very excited to see. I wanted to know what Matt and Natalie were doing and it seems they are back to their old ways. Natalie still seems to like him but Matty is on the defense and still treating her bad. He did say in the HoH that he wanted to treat her better but it doesn’t seem like he’s using his current chance in the jury house to do so. Sheila then came in and everyone was surprised. They then watched the DVD of the latest events and something interesting happened. As they watched Sharon walk out the door someone caught Ryan and Adam gesture to each other. At that point they realized the two had been working together and were very tight for a long time now. It also pointed out to Sharon that Ryan did in fact know she was going last night.

It was then time for the last HoH to occurr and it was rather obvious who would win. Adam basically threw it to Ryan, knowing Ryan would take him. Although at some points it seemed as if Adam could have won, since he mistakenly chose the right answer, Ryan pulled through with a single point to take the last HoH. He then had to evict either Adam or Sheila and took the obvious route of sending Sheila packing. This then led into a string of tear drawn answers to Julie’s questions. Although Sheila does seem upset she should have realized that Ryan would have taken Adam. She even told Adam that Ryan would never take her so I’m not exactly sure where the tears came from. In the end Adam and Ryan are the final two that could have been predicted since Natalie left the game. One of them will take home the $500,000 and the other will soon learn he’s out of the job thanks to a comment he made that CBS exposed.
