How the frick has CBS gotten away with this???

The “expect the unexpected” motto really covers their arse in a very broad way. They’ve been doing this kind of stuff for years ... remember identical twins switching in and out unbeknownst to the other players? Early in the game it is a definite advantage, but at this point it doesn’t mean much since everybody has had a chance to team up with a “ride or die” partner and they are known to everyone else. Nick was just bitter since his partner was kicked out so early and he could never solidify a deal with a new one.

I really can’t stand Christie. I give Tommy credit for his social skills and game play, but don’t care for his over-the-top fake charisma. That being said, I give them both credit for keeping their pre-BB friendship from the rest of the house. I cannot understand why the other players have not put the pieces together. Nicole suspects something, but she fails to connect-the-dots from Christie’s slip a couple weeks ago when she told the whole group that she and Tommy only live like three exits from each other. While that doesn’t guarantee they know each other before, it would seem reasonable to connect them by proximity and further by the fact that they are both part of the LGBT community, which should increase the likelihood that they know each other given the already established close proximity.
