The housemates were busy sewing name patches onto the tie-died shirts. Spread throughout the house, each found their own nook and little group to be as comfy as they could to finish their task. After several needle pokes and crossed eyes, Josef and Nikki reverted to their recently developed pastime: massaging each others hands. Josef was lying down on the sofa, trying to get some shut eye while Nikki prods him awake to continue massaging her hand. With a few grumblings, Josef obliges and they settle down, quite oblivious to the other housemates walking around them. Nikki returns the favor as Josef takes his turn at being comfy.

This week started with Kevin and Daddy Johns opposing opinions on circumcision. Daddy John wanted Kevin to do what Alex did at the start of the edition but the young man didnt like the idea one bit even if it would help 100 under privileged children get circumcised for free. For Kevin, his father should respect his decision for it is his body after all. Kevin didnt want to do it, for getting circumcised is not a norm in Spain and being di binyagan is not at all a big deal to him. Big Brother respected the father and sons decision and gave them a new task instead for them to be able to help the kids. First, they must teach Mang Erning how to read and write for the fisherman didnt get a proper education because of financial difficulties. Second, Kevin and John must convince the guys " both the guardians and the housemates " to change their hairstyles according to Kuyas preferred cut.

For the past 20 days inside Kuyas abode, the teens have been very careless and wasteful of their food. Kuya was terribly disappointed with this and decided to teach them a lesson. He instructed them to cook and eat ginisang ampalaya for dinner before giving them a fresh batch of food supplies.Since the teens typical diet consisted primarily of meat and junk food, they struggled in eating the bitter veggie. Kuya made sure that they all have their equal share of the ulam and instructed Alex to divide the meal evenly among the housemates.

Kevin, Linda, Josef, Ejay and Nikki were given the privilege to join this weeks immunity game, thanks to the efforts of their guardians. The guardians were divided into two groups to make a quilt or bedspread. Mommy My Love and Mommy Carina exchanged heated words over the task. In the Confession Room, Mommy Carina told Kuya that she had worked day and night to finish the quilt, making Mommy My Love feel that she implied the rest did not contribute enough. Mommy Carina had to explain herself, prompting Daddy John to mediate. Doc Boy, on the other hand, said goodbye as the Teen Council votes him off the house.The teens got to choose which one they liked best and the winning team became the participants in this weeks immunity game. In the first round, which was won by Kevin and Ejay, the teens had to catch the most number of water balloons thrown to them by their guardians from behind a tall wall. The second and final round was a big checkers (or dama) game where the dads had to direct the moves which their sons acted on. Daddy Erning had the better strategy, granting immunity to Ejay for the week.

Issue #1: Picky eaters


Kuya noticed that the teens were snobbing their veggies, so he decided to force-feed them some nutrients. Their first veggie star was the bitter ampalaya, and half of the housemates didnt like to eat it. Linda, Ejay and Josef were tasked to cook it while Nan was supposed to decide when it tasted good enough. Alex made sure all had an equal share on their plates, much to Nans dismay. The teens came up with various techniques to finish it: add more rice, drink a lot of water, and add ketchup or margarine. The most effective one was Alexs idea, who just gulped it down without having to taste it. Because four teens werent able to finish their food, they had to eat the ampalaya for dinner yet again.

The subject of the missing noodle was bought up once again today by Big Brother. He specifically asked Beauty and Kevin for the two housemates often hinted they know the identity of the noodle napper. Afterwards, the two gathered the housemates and told them about Kuyas inquiries. Beauty told everyone that she is more concerned with the reason behind the hiding of food rather than the identity of the hoarder but Kevin was very blunt about it.

Since they lost the tie-dying task to Team Robi, the team of Josef was made to wear bandages around their entire bodies and a carton cast on one leg. They were clowning around at first, but discomfort set in soon enough, stressing the reason for their sacrifice: 42 major operations and 112 minor operations for Operation LOL. To end their sacrifice, they were made to build a pyramid out of dominoes. They had to do this several times because they couldnt seem to do what Kuya wanted them to.

Mariel Rodriguez joyously tried out the teens dolphin exhibition game for herself today on Uber. The ex-houseguest had a fun time in Kuya's new pool but later on discovered that swimming through hoops and salbabidas was no mean feat. The teens have to swim through a series of obstacles and upon reaching the end of the pool must run back to his/her teammates and tag the next swimmer. Mariel then signaled the start of the game and the two teams took their positions at the starting line. Team 1, lead by Josef, was composed of Valerie, Rona, Jieriel, and Nicole while Team 2, which was lead by Robi included Linda, Nan, Beauty, and Ejay. Alex was exempted from the game because of his operation so to even out the teams Kevin acted as the referee. The group to go through the obstacles correctly and finish first wins the game.

It has been too long since Linda and her dad spent time together, and she had a number of questions for him, primarily about his issues and of the possibility of having a complete family once again. Mommy Ningning had no idea her ex-hubby was next door, and was quite apprehensive to talk to him again. When they finally did, though not all issues were covered, they got the ball rolling as they discussed Linda. Daddy Hans called Linda in to tell her off about smoking and drinking, but all is well when Linda assured him that she stopped already. Linda held no false hopes for her parents; all she wanted was for them to at least keep communication open.
