The Moose is Cooked

Sure enough, today's Veto was the How Bad Do You Want It Competition. Andrew and Gary both wanted it, with Andrew getting a mohawk courtesy of Dan, and Gary getting slop for the rest of the game and a prisoner costume:

Gary wanted it more

Dan's influence on the game continued after the feeds came up, with Emmett finally opening up to Dan and deciding that it makes sense to boot Andrew now, and Gary and Talla making a quiet pledge not to nominate each other next week.

Meeting Marge

With the competition over and the backyard opened, Dan took a trip out to see the hot tub with Emmett and Andrew. He was very interested in Marge the Moose, asking if they talked to her, but didn't quite get it when they said no.

A tribute to Peter (RIP)

Back inside, he continued to grill them about who had talked to the other moose in the Diary Room hallway. Talla is the only one who has, for her talk show task the other day - no one else knows the secret of Marsha the Moose, who has only spoken to Talla, Peter and AJ. It took Dan a minute to realize his goof, as Talla played dumb and Jillian grilled Dan about why on earth he would ask about talking mooses.

Jokers reacts

Dan's goof went over the heads of most of the houseguests, but it didn't go unnoticed by the internet, or by Production, who called him into the Diary Room and elicited an apology a couple of minutes later (so as not to arouse suspicion). 

So the secret of the mooses remains (mostly) safe, and Dan is free to continue wreaking havoc on the house and entertaining the internet for the rest of the night. 

Confidential to Peter

Peter finally realized tonight what most of us realized days ago: his game is over, and his goose is cooked.

In a fitting tribute to Ian Terry, he launched into a lengthy monologue on the hammock that was at times astonishing, sad, bittersweet, and freaking depressing.

I'm a little worried for how he's going to fare once he realized that his game was heavily critiqued on the internet, given how much personal stake he seems to put in it, and how high he seems to have valued it himself. It seems like, based on both his Diary Room comments tonight and the hammock monologue, that he's not entirely happy with the current state of his real life, and was counting on success in Big Brother to redeem himself.

Peter:



And you is funny, not that comedy is an easy career, but there's a reason you won the heart of not one but two mooses.

And you should base your self-worth on something more than Big Brother. Seriously. You had a nice spring as the innocuous star/narrator of a relatively popular Canadian TV series, but there's more to life, and it's time to do what others have done before you: enjoy your fifteen minutes of fame, and use it to figure out where you're going next, rather than let it bring you down and spend the next years dwelling on it.

Cause right now, you're sad about the fact that you've come in fifth place on a second reality show, but that's not even true, because you're actually sixth (behind Gary, most likely).

So chin up, pull up those bootstraps, look in the mirror, and remind yourself that it doesn't matter if you win or lose, it's how much money you can pull in off your Youtube channel now.

And if all else fails, there's still a moose somewhere that loves you.
