Resort Updates

Day 1 (9:57pm): Vijay, Charles and Monica are whispering in the pantry about the challenge, lamenting just how close they were to winning. Charles and Monica assure Vijay that he most likely won't be nominated. ("Appreciate you two! So then, who do we think will be on the chopping block...?") They then discuss the merits of each of the other Emus and why they should be nominated.

Day 1 (9:59pm): Seth, Analise, Brad and Sarah are in the kitchen, playing Uno at the dining table. A tinge of insecurity floats through the air. Analise sits between Seth and Brad, caught in a constant back and forth of Draw 4's and Reverses ("Seth, you're a big man. I'm sure you can take yet another four cards, no?"), while Sarah keeps trying to talk to Brad more. This ends up leading to a lot of aggressive card plays and Analise ending up with 25 cards in her hand.

Day 1 (10:15pm): Olive, in an attempt for some alone time, meanders into the library figuring that nobody will be in there on the first night. Slumping onto one of the couches, she mutters to the camera that she's slightly concerned about how much she's revealed of herself so far, but knows she contributed during the challenge and feels comfortable for now, despite Seth, Topaz and Vijay already bothering her. ("With so many conflicting personalities on this team, I should be the least of their concerns.")

Day 1 (10:36pm): Finn is taking his sweet time with his evening routine in the bathroom. Between the splashes of shower water you can hear him singing "Sunday Morning Coming Down" by Johnny Cash, until production stops him. ("Finn, please stop singing Sunday Morning Coming Down, we do not own those rights.") Kylie and Cheryl, having heard it from the hallway, giggle upon hearing the announcement. Cheryl turns to Kylie to talk game, but Kylie is getting tired. ("Since we're safe, we can just ask him about it tomorrow!")

Day 1 (11:41pm): Tino scans the gym to see what kind of equipment it has so he can put together a routine for tomorrow. Drew walks in to scout out who's in there. Tino tries to congratulate Drew on his team's win, but Drew cuts him off and pulls his shirt over his mouth. ("It appears meathead is in fact, predictable. No nonsense detected. He's safe in my book, for now.") Drew walks away leaving Tino dumbfounded.

Day 2 (7:07am): Topaz leaves the Loser's Lounge at the same time Marcus leaves the Winner's Wing. Topaz remarks that Marcus looks like he got terrible sleep, to which he retaliates ("Says the one coming from the Loser's Lounge, tch"). Topaz rolls her eyes and walks away, though a nervous look shoots across her face. As she heads towards the gym, Isadore pokes her head out from the Winner's Wing door, deciding whether or not to start game-talk so early in the morning. Before she can decide, Marcus walks off, cracking his back.
