EVEN: Welcome to Abnormality- Season 5! We are back with an all new season with 12 new housemates who are willing to fight it out to win the competition! Over the next 9 weeks, all 12 housemates will be battling it out for the grand prize of $350,000 as well as a place in the hall of fame as one of our winners. Previously on Abnormality, Griffin was successful in the HOH challenge and won the chance to nominate two of his fellow housemates. Griffin decided to nominate Janelle and Stewart. Following the nominations, will Janelle, Stewart or Chef Bertha be able to save themselves from the block? We'll find out on this episode of... Abnormality!
LANA: This bath is such hard work to clean, I've nearly used a whole bottle of elbow grease and it still isn't getting rid of the muck.
JANELLE: Eww lovey, I'll just wash my bits in the sink if nothing can clean it up.
LANA: I'll give it some extra welly and hope it'll get rid of the dirt.
*JANELLE finishes brushing her teeth and rinses her brush with the water.*
LANA: The POP is today, are you feeling ready for it?
JANELLE: Oh yes dear, I've even wore my game shirt for it.
LANA: I was going to ask, I never knew you were in a football team?
JANELLE: I'm not lovey, my husband is a big fan of this team and the silly lump decided to buy us matching jerseys. I've never even seen a game but must admit, the jersey is comfortable.
LANA: Yeah, I'm not a big football fan either.
JANELLE: The only sport I'm a fan of is the darts. Such a simple game... and the men are gorgeous darling.
LANA: Aren't dart players really overweight?
JANELLE: Some are lovey, but not all of them. Anyway, what's wrong with a man with a bit of meat on his bones. There's more to cuddle on a cold night.
LANA: Oh... my... lord.
JANELLE: Don't act the prude dear, it's all a bit of fun.
LANA: Hahaha, I know Janelle.
JANELLE: Are you single at the moment Lana?
LANA: I am, single and ready for a pringle.
JANELLE: Don't you worry dear, you'll find someone. I'm 100% sure of it, you are beautiful inside and out.
LANA: Thank you Janelle, that's really sweet of you. How long have you been with your husband for?
JANELLE: Oh my, what is it... 21 years. You get longer for murder haha.
LANA: You must love him to have stayed with him so long.
JANELLE: I do, he has been there for me throughout the best and the worst times of my life. He has been the rock that has held everything together.
LANA: I'd like to meet him when we get out of the house, he sounds like a really cool dude.
JANELLE: I wouldn't call him cool lovey, he still wears all the classic disco shirts and flared trousers. He thinks he must be John Travolta.
LANA: That is hilarious!
JANELLE: It is quite a giggle, but my god is it a task to iron his clothes. Talk about taking all of my Sunday up trying not to burn any of those blasted shirts.
LANA: I am getting really close to Janelle in this house, I had a conversation earlier on about her relationship with her husband and they sound like such an interesting couple. I wouldn't have expected Janelle to have gone for someone like him. I have to see them both on the outside and watch it play out!

STEWART: DOWN WITH THE GOBLIN KING!
CHEF BERTHA: What yer doin' in teh mirror? Who is deh Goblin king? Is he the one takin' me special treats from the fridge?
STEWART: I-I'm just learning my lines for Griffin's Dungeons and Dragons game.
CHEF BERTHA: He still be doin' that? Me thought he'd stopped it once 'e nominated yer for eviction?!
STEWART: I-It'll be fine, he said I'm just a pawn for this week.
CHEF BERTHA: A prawn eh? Me 'aven't had prawns since that time me went to teh beach with deh skewl.
STEWART: Y-Yeah, I think he is going after Janelle.
CHEF BERTHA: Me not too sure about that! Me saw him and the other young 'uns being sneaky foxes this mornin'. Talkin' to each other like lil' mice hidin' from a giant kitty cat.
STEWART: T-They did? What did they say?
CHEF BERTHA: Take a seat, me'll let you in on deir talks.
CHEF BERTHA: Sooo, dat geeky young 'un is nominating his own stutter buddy on deh chopping block, eh? Me can work with dat. Me just has to plant a small seed, tiny but subtle, outta which grows a sapling of distrust and eventually turns deh two of 'em on eachoder, and hopefully deh rest of dat alliance too. And when dey are too busy fighting deir arses off, Chef Bertha will slip through, poor ol' Bertha who ain't even a threat in physical comps... Me should also ask sum production member if dey can get me a garden patch somewhere in dem back yard fer me to grow me some herbs. Me really needs it fer me sanity. Hello? Even Stevens?! Are ye even listening, ya crazy young 'un?!
STEWART: Y-You heard them talking?
CHEF BERTHA: Me did, dey were talkin' about gettin' yer out.
STEWART: W-Why would they do that though? I'm not a threat in this game.
CHEF BERTHA: Yer think dat but dey see you as one. Yer not a big comp beast but y've got a lot of friends in 'ere. Yer social game is good.
STEWART: So they are going to backdoor me because I'm liked in this house?
CHEF BERTHA: Yeah! Yer liked much more than me and Janelle, and dey see that as a plus. If dey keep me and Janelle, we'll get nominated ev'ry week.
STEWART: B-But, no... I-It can't be.
CHEF BERTHA: Me sorreh matey, looks like he tryin' to get yer out.
STEWART: I-I feel betrayed. How could they do this?
CHEF BERTHA: It's deh game Stewart.
STEWART: I-I need to talk to them, if they are planning to do this I still have time to change their minds.
CHEF BERTHA: Yer don't think dey'd change their minds do you?
STEWART: Perhaps not, but I have to try. I'd hate to get evicted from this house without throwing my hat into the ring and giving them a compromise to listen to. I know anyone else in my position would do so.
CHEF BERTHA: And if dey don't change their minds?
STEWART: S-Simples, I'll have to remove them from the house... but I'll need help.
STEWART: I-I've been informed that Griffin and the others want me out of the house. I'm unsure whether it's true since it has come from Chef Bertha, but... I can see the dots adding up. I need to get my answer from them directly, I-It's going to be awkward but it's the only way to clear up the storm cloud that seems to be forming over me.
CHEF BERTHA: If yer gonna take 'em out, me'll be behind yer Stewart.
STEWART: T-thanks Chef Bertha, thank you for telling me this.
CHEF BERTHA: Just doin' me bit as a good samaritan!
STEWART: W-Wish me luck.

JONAH: One more lap and I'll have won this grand prix.
*The door opens to the gaming room.*
JONAH: Hey wanna watch me complete the season's first grand prix.
BRANDON: Hey! Can I have a quick talk with you?
JONAH: ...No thanks, I'd rather not.
BRANDON: Please Jonah, hear me out. I think we need to discuss this weird tension we've got going on. I want to sort this, and if you're the cool dude I know you to be... you want to sort this out too!
JONAH: Fine. Take a seat, I'll turn this off.
BRANDON: Okay, am I glad that I'm not nominated? Absolutely! Am I feeling safe this week? Heck no! After what went down last week, literally anything is possible. I do trust that I'm not the backdoor option, but as we saw last week with Charlotte, pawns can also go home. At least I believe that she was a pawn, I don't even know anymore. On another note I'm not going to be a writer anytime soon, as if I would have time for that anyway. However, Jonah is a Have-Not this week, which clearly doesn't help our rather strained relationship in this game... and it most certainly won't make the conversation I want to have with him any easier. If we stay in this house together for the next 7 weeks, I really don't want any bad blood between us. In fact, I've actually tried to have a civil conversation with him, and... well, you gonna watch it anyway, so I won't spoil that. On a final note, while Jin is clearly the person I have the closest bond with, I recently had time with to bond with Blair a little. I must say that I'm beginning to like her in a kind of fatherly way if that makes any sense. Probably not because she is only 13 years younger than me. Gosh, I miss being a father, this experience with Abby would be so much nicer... and knowing Abby, she would easily deal with Chef Bertha- something the majority of the house, including myself, clearly can't. Hahaha.
BRANDON: I think it's best to address the elephant in the room. Ever since Charlotte has left, you've been really off with me... and I don't know why. I know you preferred her over me, and I can see why. She was funny, articulate and very intelligent, but it isn't my fault that she is gone. If there is anyone to blame, it's the people who voted her out.
JONAH: I know and I'm not happy with the people who voted her out, the reason I've been avoiding you and ignoring you is the way you were treating her. It felt like you were leading her on- knowing nothing would happen.
BRANDON: I will admit, I did get very smitten over Charlotte. She was pretty and held a good conversation... but, when it came down to her being nominated. I knew I had to let her go, otherwise I would have gone.
JONAH: And you believe that her feelings weren't the same? That she went into that same state of mind as you.
BRANDON: I don't know, I'm not Charlotte. I'd have liked to think so, but after last week it was never going to work regardless...
BRANDON: I still don't see why you are mad though? I haven't treat her badly and I... oh, wait a minute. You liked her too didn't you!
JONAH: ...She was a good friend of mine.
BRANDON: You knew her a week dude, you don't make the best of friends in one week! You liked her and you felt raw about it because of that!
JONAH: Okay, so I liked her... but I still don't like the way you tried to trap her.
BRANDON: Dude, I didn't trap her. We were just friends and that was it!
JONAH: ...Fine.
BRANDON: So, how are we going to get past this? I know that I don't want to continue this act and I know you don't want to either.
JONAH: You're right... I'm exhausted, but it is still a bit hard... I can try and get to know you again and start new.
BRANDON: I like the sound of that, I agree it isn't going to be easy... but it's the best thing for both of us to do in this game.
JONAH: Brandon and I finally had a chat about this tension we have with each other, I got what I wanted to say out and I think he did. We've both agreed to start a new... and I would like that. I hope he can stick to his word though and prove that we can work through Charlotte's departure. At the end of the day, we both liked her, she was friends with us and it was just a big situation that could have unfolded better.

BLAIR: Ugh, I'm so tired and weak... I'm sick of eating slop! I haven't had real food for a whole week, soon it'll be two!
*GRIFFIN enters and goes to the bed BLAIR is laid on.*
GRIFFIN: Are you okay Blair? You look really rough today.
BLAIR: Gee, thanks Griff...
BLAIR: I'm surviving.
GRIFFIN: I can't imagine having to eat slop for two weeks straight, it must be so bland and boring eating it all the time.
BLAIR: You have no idea man. I'd say try it out but I wouldn't want you to experience it.
BLAIR: SLOP AGAIN!!! Even better watch out or he is going to get slop over his face, I know I'm not used to fancy food or anything but this is hardly edible! Where'd they get it from... Oscar the Grouch's trashcan?!
*GRIFFIN sits on the bed, BLAIR adjusts herself on the bed to sit up.*
GRIFFIN: It's going to be a big day today, I hope our plans we set are executed for the best outcome.
BLAIR: It doesn't matter what happens today unless Chef Bertha saves herself, we cannot let that happen!
GRIFFIN: Now that me and Stewart are in the POP challenge, I just pray that you or Brandon or both get chose to be the other players.
BLAIR: You don't think we've made the wrong choice choosing Stewart do you? To me he seems to be getting a bit distant over the results of the HOH. I think he was expecting me or Brandon to be up in his place instead.
GRIFFIN: How so? He seems to be fine to me.
BLAIR: He is quiet usually but he keeps his conversation very minimal and to the point. Once he's done he scuttles off to a hiding spot and keeps himself to himself. I know it doesn't sound too out of place, but I get those vibes that he's not truly happy with the choices we've made.
GRIFFIN: I can understand his frustration, he's timid and wants to rely on allies in this house to help him through this... but this is for the greater good. He won't be going home this week!
BLAIR: I kinda wish I was up in his place now.
GRIFFIN: Really?
BLAIR: ...Okay, no.
GRIFFIN: I'll have a chat with him, see how he is feeling about it. If he really wants, we can use the veto on him- assure his safety in this challenge. That's the only option left to show him we are in this plan together!

TRICERATOPS: That's all you have to do, inhale and absorb the bubbles?
*AMAR inhales the bubbles.*
AMAR: I'm not sure about absorb, but if you inhale and quickly exhale you get the tingling feeling on your tongue which is amazing.
*AMAR blows the bubbles out.*
AMAR: Ooh, tingley! I used to do this all the time when I went on my travels to Serbia. They have their own little cafes to do so.
TRICERATOPS: Amazing! I need to visit their one day, it sounds like a beautiful country. Can I have a go?
AMAR: Sure, pick up the pipe and inhale away!
TRICERATOPS: Okay, here goes!
*TRICERATOPS inhales the bubbles. She holds them back.*
AMAR: Great- now blow them out! Trix, blow them out.
TRICERATOPS: ...
AMAR: You're going to get really dizzy if you hold them in your mouth.
*TRICERATOPS blows her bubbles out.*
TRICERATOPS: Oh lordy lord, those bubbles have gone to my head! I feel like I've been on a bucking bronco for hours. My head is crazy dizzy...
AMAR: That's what happens if you hold onto them for too long. It ruins the buzz big time.
TRICERATOPS: Bubble blowing ain't my thang unfortunately, I thought it would be but that inhale made me all dizzy- like I had been drinking some of the special juice. I think I'll pass if asked again, hahahaha.
*AMAR inhales a second helping of bubbles.*
TRICERATOPS: The POP is today and I'm really interested to see how things play out. I don't know what could happen.
AMAR: I just hope I'm not picked. I don't want the power to change anything.
TRICERATOPS: I kind of want the power, not to use it but just to be the mega overlord of the competition. I bet it feels glorious!
AMAR: It does, but you have to consider how your actions are going to affect not only the ones around you but yourself. You don't want to trip yourself up by doing something silly.
TRICERATOPS: Good point matey.
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
BRANDON: What did you want to call a meeting for?
STEWART: I-Is it safe... Jin is over there!
GRIFFIN: He's fast asleep, don't worry about him. Myself and Blair wanted to check in with you Stewart.
STEWART: M-Me?
BLAIR: Yeah, with the whole nominations situation.
STEWART: I-I did want to speak to you about this Griffin... I-I didn't want to discuss it so openly in a group setting though.
GRIFFIN: I can talk with you in private if you like?
STEWART: N-no, I think speaking it in the group may be worthwhile... I was talking with Chef Bertha earlier... she overheard you all talking about back-dooring me! I-Is this true?
BLAIR: That sneaky old witch.
GRIFFIN: No Stewart, none of us are planning to backdoor you. The only target this week is Chef Bertha!
STEWART: Promise?
GRIFFIN: I promise you. I'd never do that to a friend, especially you!
STEWART: I-I thought you wouldn't... I-I can't believe I let Chef Bertha get into my head like that.
BLAIR: She tried to manipulate you to ruin this pact we have to get her out. It sounds like she is worried she will go.
STEWART: What if she doesn't go though? Janelle and me are equally big targets in comparison to Chef Bertha.
GRIFFIN: The plan is going well and we will get Chef Bertha out, trust me buddy. I won't let you go.
STEWART: What is the plan going into the POP challenge?
GRIFFIN: I've been thinking that we should use the veto on you, if we can save you then I can put up someone else who isn't at this table.
BRANDON: That sounds like a good plan, knowing I won't be up is also a blessing too.
STEWART: I-I hope we have more players from this team in the POP challenge though. I-I need every factor in my favour to stay.
BRANDON: Don't worry Stewie, we will save you!

JANELLE: I'm looking forward to competing again, the last HOH challenge sent a spark through my veins that I haven't had in a while.
CHEF BERTHA: Me lookin' forward to it too! Me also set a trap for little Stewart to fall into.
JANELLE: A trap? What on earth are you talking about lovey?
CHEF BERTHA: Me told Stewart dat the other young 'uns we're goin' to backdoor him when dey get der first chance.
JANELLE: Why did you tell him that?
CHEF BERTHA: So he'd get paranoid and turn on his young 'un friends.
JANELLE: And what if he goes and tells them this? Did you consider what would happen if you did that?
CHEF BERTHA: He wouldn't, me not stupid. Me knows he'll keep it to 'imself.
JANELLE: Apart from me the only other closest people to him are Blair and Griffin, he's going to go straight to them and get the truth from them.
CHEF BERTHA: Me thought it'd be a good plan.
JANELLE: You thought wrong, you imbecile.
CHEF BERTHA: Don't talk to me like dat Janelle! Me won't take it from yer.
JANELLE: Did you expect him not to say anything to the others? How naive!
CHEF BERTHA: Me doin' the best me can for me game! Me not goin' home because of dem young 'uns ruling this game. Me gonna take control!
JANELLE: I'm not sure how we're going to recover from this.
CHEF BERTHA: What do yer mean?
JANELLE: I'm not sure I can help you out any longer lovey.
CHEF BERTHA: Why not?
JANELLE: I do like you... you are bonkers but you are endearing! After this moment though, I can't find a reason to defend you without putting myself in the firing line too. Unfortunately I'm going to have to distance myself from you lovey. I'm very sorry.
CHEF BERTHA: Don't leave me 'ere with no help. Me can defeat teh young 'uns with others workin' with me!
JANELLE: Bertie, it is a huge risk!
CHEF BERTHA: Fine, me can get rid of 'em all me'self.

EVEN: HELLO HOUSEMATES! IT IS TIME FOR THE SECOND POP CHALLENGE! CAN YOU ALL PLEASE GATHER IN THE GARDEN.
*******
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
EVEN: Hello housemates! It's time for the second POP challenge. Six of you will compete in the challenge tonight for the chance to win the VETO! This veto will be able to remove one of the nominees currently sat on the chopping block. If the veto is used and one of the nominees is saved, the current reigning HOH must select a replacement nominee to take the empty seat on the block. The final nominees after this challenge will face eviction at the end of the week. As Chef Bertha was not nominated by the HOH and had incurred the nomination as a punishment in the first HOH challenge, if she is saved from the block- a replacement nominee will not be required. Now, let's see who has been picked for today's POP challenge...
EVEN: As the current reigning HOH; Griffin you are automatically enrolled onto the POP challenge.
GRIFFIN: I expected it, thank you Even.
EVEN: Janelle, as one of the nominees on the block you are automatically enrolled onto the POP challenge.
JANELLE: Lovey, I'm ready for all out war!
EVEN: Stewart, as the second nominee on the block you are automatically enrolled onto the POP challenge.
STEWART: I-I am ready to win this challenge.
EVEN: Chef Bertha, as the third nominee on the block you are also automatically enrolled onto the POP challenge.
CHEF BERTHA: Me gonna do ev'rythin' to get me ass off the block.
EVEN: And now by random selection, the following housemates will also be competing in the POP challenge tonight! First up... Amar!
AMAR: Oh, my first POP challenge!
EVEN: Our final housemates to play will be... Triceratops!
TRICERATOPS: RAWRRRRRRRR! POP- Round 2, Return of the Dinosaurs.
EVEN: I hope you are all prepared, it is time to play the POP challenge! Please can all six of you head to the challenge arena!
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
EVEN: Hello housemates! Welcome to The Secret Bunny Clubhouse! Today, all of you will be put to the test to become master wordsmiths! Each of you will collect letters over the course of the game which will be needed to create a final word which will count towards your score today!
EVEN: There will be 3 rounds to choose from a selection of different coloured bunnies. Each bunny will contain a certain amount of letters which equate to a certain amount of points. If we look at the below list, we can see what bunnies contain which letters and how many you will receive for picking them that:
PINK BUNNY: L, N, S, T, R, D, G (4 random consonants)
BLUE BUNNY: B, C, M, P, K (3 random consonants)
GREEN BUNNY: F, H, V, W, Y (2 random consonants)
YELLOW/PURPLE BUNNY: J, X (2 random consonant)
BEIGE BUNNY: Q, Z (1 random consonant)
EVEN: Each round you will also receive a vowel in each of the bunnies. For round 1 you will receive 1 vowel, round 2 you will receive 2 extra vowels and round 3 you will receive 3 extra vowels. At the end of all rounds, you will have 6 vowels and an accumulation of other consonants found across the game.
EVEN: The aim of the game is not to create the longest word though... all letters have a number value as we will be following Scrabble rules. Therefore, with this information the housemate who creates the word with the most points value will win this challenge! The scrabble letter values can be found below:
POINTS:
1P- A, E, I, O, U, L, N, S, T, R
2P- D, G
3P- B, C, M, P
4P- F, H, V, W, Y
5P- K
8P- J, X
10P- Q, Z
EVEN: Now that we are aware of the points valuations, it is time to kick start this challenge off! As you know, this is a turn based game so prior to the challenge all housemates ordered themselves into a running order. Now that we have that confirmed, let's start with the first housemate to choose a bunny...
EVEN: Stewart, you are first up to choose! Good luck everyone!
ALL: Thanks Even.

ALL: Yay!
AMAR: I know I've only got a Q and an E, however I don't want to win this POP challenge at all. I'll happily hand it over to someone else to claim the veto. I just want to enjoy my time here in the house until I HAVE to make decisions like this.
EVEN: Stewart, you are up to kick off round 2! Which bunny would you like?
STEWART: I-I would like to choose Number 16.

GRIFFIN: I think it'd be best to pick a blue bunny... I'm going to pick Number 8.
EVEN: Thank you for choosing your second bunny Griffin... Triceratops, you are next to pick!
GRIFFIN: I'm feeling confident in a challenge for once, I'm looking at the letters I have so far and I've already got a word in mind... Once I get more letters in though, I'm going to try my best to get the best scoring one. I have a good hand so it's not completely out of the realm of possibility.
TRICERATOPS: Imagine if you got the bunnies from Raving Rabbids! That would have been EPIC!
EVEN: I'm sure we wouldn't have a house left if we did that.
TRICERATOPS: I'm going to choose Number 18.
EVEN: Thank you for choosing your second bunny Triceratops... last but not least for round 2, Amar it's your turn to pick!

EVEN: Thank you for picking your last bunny Janelle... Griffin, you are up next!
JANELLE: Darlings, I am looking at my letters and my mind goes blank. The longest word I can see at the moment is Cat... I know that isn't going to help me win this challenge though. I need to get my thinking cap on an reevaluate my letters before I jump the shark.
GRIFFIN: There's not many bunnies left which I want... perhaps I should go for this one? I'll pick Number 6.
EVEN: Thank you for picking your last bunny Griffin... Triceratops, you are up next to pick!
TRICERATOPS: Please give me the good letters! I'll pick Number 7.
EVEN: Thank you for picking your last bunny Triceratops... Amar, you are last to pick!
AMAR: I'm going to pick Number 22.

*******
GRIFFIN: Hmm, I could put that down... it's got a high value but I'm not sure if it's going to be the best I can do.
GRIFFIN'S LETTERS:

EVEN: Welcome back housemates! Janelle was crowned our second POP winner and has gained the power to veto one of the nominees off the chopping block!
EVEN: Janelle, this week Stewart, Chef Bertha and yourself are on the chopping block. With your new found power, will you use the veto on any of the nominees on the chopping block this week?
JANELLE: Yes lovey, I'm going to save myself of course.
EVEN: We wouldn't have expected anything different, thank you for your decision Janelle. You are no longer a nominee this week, following this decision the current reigning HOH will now have to make a decision on who to replace in Janelle's place.
EVEN: Griffin, as the current reigning HOH you will now tell me who your replacement nominee will be. Griffin, please could you give me your answer...
GRIFFIN: I've thought a lot about this... I looked through everyone as an option and consulted with myself what the best decision would be. Luckily I came to a conclusion that will be best for everyone. Even, I'm going to nominate...

CHEF BERTHA: Me wants to say well done on teh challenge t'day!
JANELLE: Thank you lovey, I don't feel as happy as I do though... I wish I could have saved Stewart from the block too.
CHEF BERTHA: Excuse me! What about Chef Bertha? Me not worth saving?
JANELLE: You know I'd have saved you too dear, Stewart is very shy though. He needs his confidence lifting.
CHEF BERTHA: You've changed yer mind, thought yer didn't like teh 'snowflake' generation?
JANELLE: Oh no, I can't stand them... but I'm not a monster. If there's a young kid who needs help feeling comfortable I'll do my damn best to help them, you know what I mean?
CHEF BERTHA: Noooooo.
JANELLE: Silly me, asking someone with your experience of terrible encounters with young people about confidence amongst youths.
CHEF BERTHA: Dey set me tent on fire once when the school went campin'. Had to look after dese horrible young 'uns from walkin' off into the woods... and what do dey go and do, burn me tent down the rascals!
JANELLE: What kind of school do you work at? All the kids sound like the future criminals of society.
CHEF BERTHA: Doesn't matter, dats every school nowadays! There's no discipline and teh young 'uns think dey can do whatever dey like- and dey do!
JANELLE: I'm happy that I'm still in my office job, I considered working within a school of some kind- I'm delighted to have dodged that bullet.
CHEF BERTHA: Me would 'ave done teh same if me had another chance.

JIN: I- lost in thought... Not sure how to take this.
STEWART: I-I think we can make it Jin.
JIN: I big threat in this game. After last week- I put target on my back with good performance.
STEWART: You are a physical threat, b-but you have much more to give in this house. I-I'd miss you if you left.
JIN: I miss you too! I like you and your personality.
STEWART: T-thank you Jin, that means a lot to me.
JIN: So, if going to stay longer. You and me need a plan!
STEWART: I-I agree. Considering that Chef Bertha is the one we are both going up against, I think we can drum enough support to get her evicted this week. Both of us haven't upset anyone whereas Chef Bertha has had at least a minor conflict with everyone.
JIN: I'm disappointed I'm now on the block. I didn't expect to nominated twice already. I do want to stay, stay a long time. I have to hope that Chef Bertha or Stewart is going home. Out of both players, Stewart may have chance to live on, Chef Bertha- not so much.
JIN: Good points Stewart. Chef Bertha has been angry at everyone for everything. Jin and Stewart can offer a lot to bet with.
STEWART: Y-You are right, we have many bargaining chips to plead with the rest of the housemates to keep us here... hopefully we don't have to plead though. A few of the others have a plan to get Chef Bertha out... and now that Chef Bertha can't escape, we can get her out.
JIN: You trust plan? Plans, big plans can go horribly wrong.
STEWART: I-I've already worried myself over that, I-I'm staying positive from now on. Up and up we will go in this competition Jin! Believe me.
JIN: I would like that a lot, must be careful though.
STEWART: Of course!
EVEN: That concludes this episode of Abnormality! Janelle pulled through and won the second POP challenge of this season. She decided to save herself from the chopping block resulting in Jin being her replacement. Following this, Jin, Stewart or Chef Bertha will be going home this week. The question is though, who will be the unlucky housemate to leave the house next? Tune in to the next episode to find out the result of Abnormality's first ever 3-person eviction! Goodnight everybody.

LANA: This bath is such hard work to clean, I've nearly used a whole bottle of elbow grease and it still isn't getting rid of the muck.
JANELLE: Eww lovey, I'll just wash my bits in the sink if nothing can clean it up.
LANA: I'll give it some extra welly and hope it'll get rid of the dirt.
*JANELLE finishes brushing her teeth and rinses her brush with the water.*
LANA: The POP is today, are you feeling ready for it?
JANELLE: Oh yes dear, I've even wore my game shirt for it.
LANA: I was going to ask, I never knew you were in a football team?
JANELLE: I'm not lovey, my husband is a big fan of this team and the silly lump decided to buy us matching jerseys. I've never even seen a game but must admit, the jersey is comfortable.
LANA: Yeah, I'm not a big football fan either.
JANELLE: The only sport I'm a fan of is the darts. Such a simple game... and the men are gorgeous darling.
LANA: Aren't dart players really overweight?
JANELLE: Some are lovey, but not all of them. Anyway, what's wrong with a man with a bit of meat on his bones. There's more to cuddle on a cold night.
LANA: Oh... my... lord.
JANELLE: Don't act the prude dear, it's all a bit of fun.
LANA: Hahaha, I know Janelle.
JANELLE: Are you single at the moment Lana?
LANA: I am, single and ready for a pringle.
JANELLE: Don't you worry dear, you'll find someone. I'm 100% sure of it, you are beautiful inside and out.
LANA: Thank you Janelle, that's really sweet of you. How long have you been with your husband for?
JANELLE: Oh my, what is it... 21 years. You get longer for murder haha.
LANA: You must love him to have stayed with him so long.
JANELLE: I do, he has been there for me throughout the best and the worst times of my life. He has been the rock that has held everything together.
LANA: I'd like to meet him when we get out of the house, he sounds like a really cool dude.
JANELLE: I wouldn't call him cool lovey, he still wears all the classic disco shirts and flared trousers. He thinks he must be John Travolta.
LANA: That is hilarious!
JANELLE: It is quite a giggle, but my god is it a task to iron his clothes. Talk about taking all of my Sunday up trying not to burn any of those blasted shirts.
LANA: I am getting really close to Janelle in this house, I had a conversation earlier on about her relationship with her husband and they sound like such an interesting couple. I wouldn't have expected Janelle to have gone for someone like him. I have to see them both on the outside and watch it play out!

STEWART: DOWN WITH THE GOBLIN KING!
CHEF BERTHA: What yer doin' in teh mirror? Who is deh Goblin king? Is he the one takin' me special treats from the fridge?
STEWART: I-I'm just learning my lines for Griffin's Dungeons and Dragons game.
CHEF BERTHA: He still be doin' that? Me thought he'd stopped it once 'e nominated yer for eviction?!
STEWART: I-It'll be fine, he said I'm just a pawn for this week.
CHEF BERTHA: A prawn eh? Me 'aven't had prawns since that time me went to teh beach with deh skewl.
STEWART: Y-Yeah, I think he is going after Janelle.
CHEF BERTHA: Me not too sure about that! Me saw him and the other young 'uns being sneaky foxes this mornin'. Talkin' to each other like lil' mice hidin' from a giant kitty cat.
STEWART: T-They did? What did they say?
CHEF BERTHA: Take a seat, me'll let you in on deir talks.
CHEF BERTHA: Sooo, dat geeky young 'un is nominating his own stutter buddy on deh chopping block, eh? Me can work with dat. Me just has to plant a small seed, tiny but subtle, outta which grows a sapling of distrust and eventually turns deh two of 'em on eachoder, and hopefully deh rest of dat alliance too. And when dey are too busy fighting deir arses off, Chef Bertha will slip through, poor ol' Bertha who ain't even a threat in physical comps... Me should also ask sum production member if dey can get me a garden patch somewhere in dem back yard fer me to grow me some herbs. Me really needs it fer me sanity. Hello? Even Stevens?! Are ye even listening, ya crazy young 'un?!
STEWART: Y-You heard them talking?
CHEF BERTHA: Me did, dey were talkin' about gettin' yer out.
STEWART: W-Why would they do that though? I'm not a threat in this game.
CHEF BERTHA: Yer think dat but dey see you as one. Yer not a big comp beast but y've got a lot of friends in 'ere. Yer social game is good.
STEWART: So they are going to backdoor me because I'm liked in this house?
CHEF BERTHA: Yeah! Yer liked much more than me and Janelle, and dey see that as a plus. If dey keep me and Janelle, we'll get nominated ev'ry week.
STEWART: B-But, no... I-It can't be.
CHEF BERTHA: Me sorreh matey, looks like he tryin' to get yer out.
STEWART: I-I feel betrayed. How could they do this?
CHEF BERTHA: It's deh game Stewart.
STEWART: I-I need to talk to them, if they are planning to do this I still have time to change their minds.
CHEF BERTHA: Yer don't think dey'd change their minds do you?
STEWART: Perhaps not, but I have to try. I'd hate to get evicted from this house without throwing my hat into the ring and giving them a compromise to listen to. I know anyone else in my position would do so.
CHEF BERTHA: And if dey don't change their minds?
STEWART: S-Simples, I'll have to remove them from the house... but I'll need help.
STEWART: I-I've been informed that Griffin and the others want me out of the house. I'm unsure whether it's true since it has come from Chef Bertha, but... I can see the dots adding up. I need to get my answer from them directly, I-It's going to be awkward but it's the only way to clear up the storm cloud that seems to be forming over me.
CHEF BERTHA: If yer gonna take 'em out, me'll be behind yer Stewart.
STEWART: T-thanks Chef Bertha, thank you for telling me this.
CHEF BERTHA: Just doin' me bit as a good samaritan!
STEWART: W-Wish me luck.

JONAH: One more lap and I'll have won this grand prix.
*The door opens to the gaming room.*
JONAH: Hey wanna watch me complete the season's first grand prix.
BRANDON: Hey! Can I have a quick talk with you?
JONAH: ...No thanks, I'd rather not.
BRANDON: Please Jonah, hear me out. I think we need to discuss this weird tension we've got going on. I want to sort this, and if you're the cool dude I know you to be... you want to sort this out too!
JONAH: Fine. Take a seat, I'll turn this off.
BRANDON: Okay, am I glad that I'm not nominated? Absolutely! Am I feeling safe this week? Heck no! After what went down last week, literally anything is possible. I do trust that I'm not the backdoor option, but as we saw last week with Charlotte, pawns can also go home. At least I believe that she was a pawn, I don't even know anymore. On another note I'm not going to be a writer anytime soon, as if I would have time for that anyway. However, Jonah is a Have-Not this week, which clearly doesn't help our rather strained relationship in this game... and it most certainly won't make the conversation I want to have with him any easier. If we stay in this house together for the next 7 weeks, I really don't want any bad blood between us. In fact, I've actually tried to have a civil conversation with him, and... well, you gonna watch it anyway, so I won't spoil that. On a final note, while Jin is clearly the person I have the closest bond with, I recently had time with to bond with Blair a little. I must say that I'm beginning to like her in a kind of fatherly way if that makes any sense. Probably not because she is only 13 years younger than me. Gosh, I miss being a father, this experience with Abby would be so much nicer... and knowing Abby, she would easily deal with Chef Bertha- something the majority of the house, including myself, clearly can't. Hahaha.
BRANDON: I think it's best to address the elephant in the room. Ever since Charlotte has left, you've been really off with me... and I don't know why. I know you preferred her over me, and I can see why. She was funny, articulate and very intelligent, but it isn't my fault that she is gone. If there is anyone to blame, it's the people who voted her out.
JONAH: I know and I'm not happy with the people who voted her out, the reason I've been avoiding you and ignoring you is the way you were treating her. It felt like you were leading her on- knowing nothing would happen.
BRANDON: I will admit, I did get very smitten over Charlotte. She was pretty and held a good conversation... but, when it came down to her being nominated. I knew I had to let her go, otherwise I would have gone.
JONAH: And you believe that her feelings weren't the same? That she went into that same state of mind as you.
BRANDON: I don't know, I'm not Charlotte. I'd have liked to think so, but after last week it was never going to work regardless...
BRANDON: I still don't see why you are mad though? I haven't treat her badly and I... oh, wait a minute. You liked her too didn't you!
JONAH: ...She was a good friend of mine.
BRANDON: You knew her a week dude, you don't make the best of friends in one week! You liked her and you felt raw about it because of that!
JONAH: Okay, so I liked her... but I still don't like the way you tried to trap her.
BRANDON: Dude, I didn't trap her. We were just friends and that was it!
JONAH: ...Fine.
BRANDON: So, how are we going to get past this? I know that I don't want to continue this act and I know you don't want to either.
JONAH: You're right... I'm exhausted, but it is still a bit hard... I can try and get to know you again and start new.
BRANDON: I like the sound of that, I agree it isn't going to be easy... but it's the best thing for both of us to do in this game.
JONAH: Brandon and I finally had a chat about this tension we have with each other, I got what I wanted to say out and I think he did. We've both agreed to start a new... and I would like that. I hope he can stick to his word though and prove that we can work through Charlotte's departure. At the end of the day, we both liked her, she was friends with us and it was just a big situation that could have unfolded better.

BLAIR: Ugh, I'm so tired and weak... I'm sick of eating slop! I haven't had real food for a whole week, soon it'll be two!
*GRIFFIN enters and goes to the bed BLAIR is laid on.*
GRIFFIN: Are you okay Blair? You look really rough today.
BLAIR: Gee, thanks Griff...
BLAIR: I'm surviving.
GRIFFIN: I can't imagine having to eat slop for two weeks straight, it must be so bland and boring eating it all the time.
BLAIR: You have no idea man. I'd say try it out but I wouldn't want you to experience it.
BLAIR: SLOP AGAIN!!! Even better watch out or he is going to get slop over his face, I know I'm not used to fancy food or anything but this is hardly edible! Where'd they get it from... Oscar the Grouch's trashcan?!
*GRIFFIN sits on the bed, BLAIR adjusts herself on the bed to sit up.*
GRIFFIN: It's going to be a big day today, I hope our plans we set are executed for the best outcome.
BLAIR: It doesn't matter what happens today unless Chef Bertha saves herself, we cannot let that happen!
GRIFFIN: Now that me and Stewart are in the POP challenge, I just pray that you or Brandon or both get chose to be the other players.
BLAIR: You don't think we've made the wrong choice choosing Stewart do you? To me he seems to be getting a bit distant over the results of the HOH. I think he was expecting me or Brandon to be up in his place instead.
GRIFFIN: How so? He seems to be fine to me.
BLAIR: He is quiet usually but he keeps his conversation very minimal and to the point. Once he's done he scuttles off to a hiding spot and keeps himself to himself. I know it doesn't sound too out of place, but I get those vibes that he's not truly happy with the choices we've made.
GRIFFIN: I can understand his frustration, he's timid and wants to rely on allies in this house to help him through this... but this is for the greater good. He won't be going home this week!
BLAIR: I kinda wish I was up in his place now.
GRIFFIN: Really?
BLAIR: ...Okay, no.
GRIFFIN: I'll have a chat with him, see how he is feeling about it. If he really wants, we can use the veto on him- assure his safety in this challenge. That's the only option left to show him we are in this plan together!

TRICERATOPS: That's all you have to do, inhale and absorb the bubbles?

*AMAR blows the bubbles out.*
AMAR: Ooh, tingley! I used to do this all the time when I went on my travels to Serbia. They have their own little cafes to do so.
TRICERATOPS: Amazing! I need to visit their one day, it sounds like a beautiful country. Can I have a go?
AMAR: Sure, pick up the pipe and inhale away!
TRICERATOPS: Okay, here goes!

AMAR: Great- now blow them out! Trix, blow them out.
TRICERATOPS: ...
AMAR: You're going to get really dizzy if you hold them in your mouth.
*TRICERATOPS blows her bubbles out.*
TRICERATOPS: Oh lordy lord, those bubbles have gone to my head! I feel like I've been on a bucking bronco for hours. My head is crazy dizzy...
AMAR: That's what happens if you hold onto them for too long. It ruins the buzz big time.
TRICERATOPS: Bubble blowing ain't my thang unfortunately, I thought it would be but that inhale made me all dizzy- like I had been drinking some of the special juice. I think I'll pass if asked again, hahahaha.
*AMAR inhales a second helping of bubbles.*
TRICERATOPS: The POP is today and I'm really interested to see how things play out. I don't know what could happen.
AMAR: I just hope I'm not picked. I don't want the power to change anything.
TRICERATOPS: I kind of want the power, not to use it but just to be the mega overlord of the competition. I bet it feels glorious!
AMAR: It does, but you have to consider how your actions are going to affect not only the ones around you but yourself. You don't want to trip yourself up by doing something silly.

BLAIR: Yeah, with the whole nominations situation.
STEWART: I-I did want to speak to you about this Griffin... I-I didn't want to discuss it so openly in a group setting though.
GRIFFIN: I can talk with you in private if you like?
STEWART: N-no, I think speaking it in the group may be worthwhile... I was talking with Chef Bertha earlier... she overheard you all talking about back-dooring me! I-Is this true?
BLAIR: That sneaky old witch.
GRIFFIN: No Stewart, none of us are planning to backdoor you. The only target this week is Chef Bertha!
STEWART: Promise?
GRIFFIN: I promise you. I'd never do that to a friend, especially you!
STEWART: I-I thought you wouldn't... I-I can't believe I let Chef Bertha get into my head like that.
BLAIR: She tried to manipulate you to ruin this pact we have to get her out. It sounds like she is worried she will go.
STEWART: What if she doesn't go though? Janelle and me are equally big targets in comparison to Chef Bertha.
GRIFFIN: The plan is going well and we will get Chef Bertha out, trust me buddy. I won't let you go.
STEWART: What is the plan going into the POP challenge?
GRIFFIN: I've been thinking that we should use the veto on you, if we can save you then I can put up someone else who isn't at this table.
BRANDON: That sounds like a good plan, knowing I won't be up is also a blessing too.
STEWART: I-I hope we have more players from this team in the POP challenge though. I-I need every factor in my favour to stay.

CHEF BERTHA: Me told Stewart dat the other young 'uns we're goin' to backdoor him when dey get der first chance.

EVEN: Hello housemates! It's time for the second POP challenge. Six of you will compete in the challenge tonight for the chance to win the VETO! This veto will be able to remove one of the nominees currently sat on the chopping block. If the veto is used and one of the nominees is saved, the current reigning HOH must select a replacement nominee to take the empty seat on the block. The final nominees after this challenge will face eviction at the end of the week. As Chef Bertha was not nominated by the HOH and had incurred the nomination as a punishment in the first HOH challenge, if she is saved from the block- a replacement nominee will not be required. Now, let's see who has been picked for today's POP challenge...
EVEN: As the current reigning HOH; Griffin you are automatically enrolled onto the POP challenge.
GRIFFIN: I expected it, thank you Even.
EVEN: Janelle, as one of the nominees on the block you are automatically enrolled onto the POP challenge.

PINK BUNNY: L, N, S, T, R, D, G (4 random consonants)
BLUE BUNNY: B, C, M, P, K (3 random consonants)
GREEN BUNNY: F, H, V, W, Y (2 random consonants)
YELLOW/PURPLE BUNNY: J, X (2 random consonant)
BEIGE BUNNY: Q, Z (1 random consonant)
EVEN: Each round you will also receive a vowel in each of the bunnies. For round 1 you will receive 1 vowel, round 2 you will receive 2 extra vowels and round 3 you will receive 3 extra vowels. At the end of all rounds, you will have 6 vowels and an accumulation of other consonants found across the game.
EVEN: The aim of the game is not to create the longest word though... all letters have a number value as we will be following Scrabble rules. Therefore, with this information the housemate who creates the word with the most points value will win this challenge! The scrabble letter values can be found below:
POINTS:
1P- A, E, I, O, U, L, N, S, T, R
2P- D, G
3P- B, C, M, P
4P- F, H, V, W, Y
5P- K
8P- J, X
10P- Q, Z
EVEN: Now that we are aware of the points valuations, it is time to kick start this challenge off! As you know, this is a turn based game so prior to the challenge all housemates ordered themselves into a running order. Now that we have that confirmed, let's start with the first housemate to choose a bunny...

JANELLE: Darlings, I am looking at my letters and my mind goes blank. The longest word I can see at the moment is Cat... I know that isn't going to help me win this challenge though. I need to get my thinking cap on an reevaluate my letters before I jump the shark.
GRIFFIN: There's not many bunnies left which I want... perhaps I should go for this one? I'll pick Number 6.
EVEN: Thank you for picking your last bunny Griffin... Triceratops, you are up next to pick!

EVEN: Welcome back housemates! Janelle was crowned our second POP winner and has gained the power to veto one of the nominees off the chopping block!
EVEN: Janelle, this week Stewart, Chef Bertha and yourself are on the chopping block. With your new found power, will you use the veto on any of the nominees on the chopping block this week?
JANELLE: Yes lovey, I'm going to save myself of course.
EVEN: We wouldn't have expected anything different, thank you for your decision Janelle. You are no longer a nominee this week, following this decision the current reigning HOH will now have to make a decision on who to replace in Janelle's place.
EVEN: Griffin, as the current reigning HOH you will now tell me who your replacement nominee will be. Griffin, please could you give me your answer...
GRIFFIN: I've thought a lot about this... I looked through everyone as an option and consulted with myself what the best decision would be. Luckily I came to a conclusion that will be best for everyone. Even, I'm going to nominate...

EVEN: I'm sorry Jin but you have been nominated. Please could you take a seat next to Stewart.
EVEN: Jin, Stewart and Chef Bertha, you three are the final nominees this week and will face eviction. One of you will be going home this week.
JIN: Good luck both.
STEWART: I-I wish you both the best of luck.
CHEF BERTHA: Me needs to win dis vote.
EVEN: Good luck guys! I will see you all on eviction night where one of you will be going home! Goodnight everybody.
ALL: Bye Even.
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
CHEF BERTHA: Me wants to say well done on teh challenge t'day!
JANELLE: Thank you lovey, I don't feel as happy as I do though... I wish I could have saved Stewart from the block too.
CHEF BERTHA: Excuse me! What about Chef Bertha? Me not worth saving?
JANELLE: You know I'd have saved you too dear, Stewart is very shy though. He needs his confidence lifting.
CHEF BERTHA: You've changed yer mind, thought yer didn't like teh 'snowflake' generation?
JANELLE: Oh no, I can't stand them... but I'm not a monster. If there's a young kid who needs help feeling comfortable I'll do my damn best to help them, you know what I mean?
CHEF BERTHA: Noooooo.
JANELLE: Silly me, asking someone with your experience of terrible encounters with young people about confidence amongst youths.
CHEF BERTHA: Dey set me tent on fire once when the school went campin'. Had to look after dese horrible young 'uns from walkin' off into the woods... and what do dey go and do, burn me tent down the rascals!
JANELLE: What kind of school do you work at? All the kids sound like the future criminals of society.
CHEF BERTHA: Doesn't matter, dats every school nowadays! There's no discipline and teh young 'uns think dey can do whatever dey like- and dey do!
JANELLE: I'm happy that I'm still in my office job, I considered working within a school of some kind- I'm delighted to have dodged that bullet.
CHEF BERTHA: Me would 'ave done teh same if me had another chance.
*******
JIN: I- lost in thought... Not sure how to take this.
STEWART: I-I think we can make it Jin.
JIN: I big threat in this game. After last week- I put target on my back with good performance.
STEWART: You are a physical threat, b-but you have much more to give in this house. I-I'd miss you if you left.
JIN: I miss you too! I like you and your personality.
STEWART: T-thank you Jin, that means a lot to me.
JIN: So, if going to stay longer. You and me need a plan!
STEWART: I-I agree. Considering that Chef Bertha is the one we are both going up against, I think we can drum enough support to get her evicted this week. Both of us haven't upset anyone whereas Chef Bertha has had at least a minor conflict with everyone.
JIN: I'm disappointed I'm now on the block. I didn't expect to nominated twice already. I do want to stay, stay a long time. I have to hope that Chef Bertha or Stewart is going home. Out of both players, Stewart may have chance to live on, Chef Bertha- not so much.
JIN: Good points Stewart. Chef Bertha has been angry at everyone for everything. Jin and Stewart can offer a lot to bet with.
STEWART: Y-You are right, we have many bargaining chips to plead with the rest of the housemates to keep us here... hopefully we don't have to plead though. A few of the others have a plan to get Chef Bertha out... and now that Chef Bertha can't escape, we can get her out.
JIN: You trust plan? Plans, big plans can go horribly wrong.
STEWART: I-I've already worried myself over that, I-I'm staying positive from now on. Up and up we will go in this competition Jin! Believe me.
JIN: I would like that a lot, must be careful though.
STEWART: Of course!
EVEN: That concludes this episode of Abnormality! Janelle pulled through and won the second POP challenge of this season. She decided to save herself from the chopping block resulting in Jin being her replacement. Following this, Jin, Stewart or Chef Bertha will be going home this week. The question is though, who will be the unlucky housemate to leave the house next? Tune in to the next episode to find out the result of Abnormality's first ever 3-person eviction! Goodnight everybody.
