Ratings - BB Cafe special edition

Ratings are based on whimsy

Noms count: original/renom/twist

Outwardly, the BB Cafe seems like a nice, local, homey place to grab a bite but it's actually just one in a large chain owned by a faceless corporate conglomerate. Everything's been carefully constructed after many consumer studies to lure in customers with the cute asylum decor and giant meatballs. Some locations have a suggestion box indicating they're open to new ideas, but it's rarely opened.
Won: Dinner guest HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 2   27 - Applicant - Single Medical receptionist - Brooklyn NY Hostess. Miss America will greet you in a friendly manner and tell you the BB Cafe regretfully doesn't take reservations, so please wait over there until your table is ready and your name is called. A few regulars give her some low-key harassment by saying their party's name is Dufresne, and then they laugh, but she doesn't understand what that's about. Sometimes she'll show you to your table and hand out menus, but usually she just points in the general direction you should go. She'll usually offer you a complimentary mint on your way out.	Won: $1,000 HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 1   25 - Recruit - Single Brand strategist - New York, NY Customer. As an up and coming brand strategist and/or foodie TikTok influencer, Blue's always looking for trendy new eateries she can 'discover' for her followers. While the BB Cafe is more basic than the usual in-crowd places she normally posts pics of herself and her food from, she's hoping to start (and take credit for) a new retro craze featuring basic burgers and sandwiches served on paper placemats in naugahyde booths.
Won: Netherland Day 11; a pressure cooker HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 2   45 - Applicant Barrister/DJ - Los Angeles, CA Unknown. Bowie's a regular at the BB Cafe and most assume she's an employee, but nobody's quite sure what she does. There's been some gossip that maybe she's an undercover food critic, but after her 47th consecutive day showing up, that theory's been dropped. Maybe she's an undercover security agent making sure nobody slips the little jam and jelly packets into their bag to take home. Whatever she is, she's nearly always in a good mood and she doesn't cause more than her share of problems, so they let her stick around.	Won: Europe trip; 1 week 5 days piggy suit; 2000 cups of dirt with Izzy HOH 2 - Veto 1 - Noms 3/1/0 - HN 0   34 - Applicant - Separated, 1 daughter Stay-at-home dad - Eastman, GA Busboy. He does a decent job of clearing away ketchup-smeared plates, syrup-sticky wadded up napkins, and the other messes BB Cafe's diners leave behind, but he often does it noisily enough to irk nearby customers, and he usually takes too long per table, blocking aisles so paying customers have to wait around for him to finish before they can pay and get out of there. That's a problem for management, plus there's been complaints about excessive curly hairs left behind on his tables, so the gossip is he's about to be fired.
Won: Dinner guest; Invincibility vote; 48 hrs kayak with Felicia HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 1   53 - Recruit/stuntcast - Married, 3 sons Surgical director Cashier. She thought she was going to be maitre d' in a more upscale restaurant that uses actual tablecloths, but she accepted the position of cashier at BB Cafe anyway. She likes keeping her eye on everyone, staff and customers alike, from her perch near the entrance, and she keeps copious mental notes about which regulars use cash and which use cards (and which cards), and she's especially aware of what kind of tippers people are. She sometimes seats customers when the Hostess goes on break to hang out in the Manager's office, but she doesn't tell America which tables she's filled. Cirie means no harm: it's just a little side game that makes her smile, and it breaks up the monotony of her long shifts.	Won: Netherland Day 1; Invincibility vote HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/1 - HN 3   21 - Applicant/stuntcast - Single College student Ft Lauderdale, FL Manager. The sign on his office door says MANAGER anyway, and his office is little more than a closet, but he takes pride in the title. He has business cards that say MANAGER even though he rarely has occasion to give them to anyone. Mostly he stays in his office running profit/loss statements, risk assessment spreadsheets, and running lease vs buy analyses in case the BB Cafe ever decides to upgrade the facilities. He does most of that for his own enjoyment. His actual job is making the staff schedule and doing the weekly employee payroll, and making sure everyone reports their tips properly.
Won: 24 18 hours slimings; Dinner guest; 48 hrs kayak with Cirie HOH 1 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/1 - HN 1   63 - Applicant - Married, 1 son Real estate agent - Kennesaw, GA Cook. She can whip up anything from scrambled eggs and toast to a memorable BLT, to fully catered dinners for 17 or fewer. Some of the staff claims she can be difficult to work with but they soon learn if they just stay out of her way, she'll get on with the job without incident. She's known for being particularly demanding about her stock and supplies, and the Manager tends to ignore those demands because he's always trying to lower costs in hopes corporate management notices. But they never do, and instead they usually supply Felicia with whatever raw materials and supplies she asks for because they know the customers love her food.	Won: $5,000; Netherland Day 10; Week 2 immunity; 1 week chicken suit; Invincibility vote; Day 30 revival HOH 0 - Veto 2 - Noms 2/1/0 - HN 1   25 - Applicant - Single Truck company owner/realtor - Omak, WA Waiter. He's not the best waiter in the world but not the worst. He uses an order pad but doesn't always remember who gets the cobb salad and who gets the bacon burger when the food comes. He's got an easy friendly manner so his tables don't usually mind swapping plates after they've been served, but his tips are erratic.
Won: Netherland Day 9 HOH 2 - Veto 1 - Noms 0/0/1 - HN 2   25 - Applicant/stuntcast - Single Exterminator - Norwalk, CT Maintenance. Nobody's really sure what his job description is. Back room gossip says he only got the job because the Cashier put in a good word for him but he does do a lot, from running errands to replacing light bulbs. He shows up for work every day but is often found sleeping in empty booths, and has occasionally been reprimanded for fraternizing with a Customer.	Won: Invincibility vote and power; 1 week 5 days Duhamel-a-maniac HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 2   27 - Recruit - Single Deaflympics gold medalist - Baton Rouge, LA Waiter. He's a customer favorite and diners often request to be seated at one of his tables. This sometimes irritates the Hostess because her waiting area gets too crowded and she gets complaints about that, but diners at Jag's tables are notoriously slow eaters so the backup can't be helped. Matt's a much more efficient waiter but he and Jag usually pool their tips and then split them 50/50, even though Matt's are usually higher.
Won: Dinner with 3 guests HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 1   30 - Applicant - Newlywed Political consultant - Upper Marlboro, MD Customer. She knows the value of a dollar and she knows good food, so it's a no-brainer she eats here regularly even though she could easily afford pricier and fancier restaurants. She overhears a lot of staff gossip but she mostly stays out of it, and she never irritates fellow customers. She's gotten friendly with the Cook because she remembers to send her regards to the kitchen after a good meal, so she often gets an extra muffin or a free dessert because little tokens of gratitude are appreciated. She usually takes those extras home to eat later.	Won: 1 week 5 days piggy suit; 2000 cups of dirt with Cameron HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 2   32 - Applicant - Has a girlfriend Flutist - New York, NY 5th evicted - Day 44 She clocked Cirie and Jared in a minute, and she quickly went from being a Cirie fan to a devoted ally and surrogate daughter. She made no secret of it and that didn't go unnoticed. She was often manic, chaotic, and cracked, and her animated conversations and limitless facial expressions became their own side game. She later calmed down under Cirie's mentorship and they drove the first half of the game, not always to their benefit. She was a never-a-dull-moment hamster and that's always good for fun feeds.
Won: 1 year P+ and home theater HOH 0 - Veto 1 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 1   37 38 - Recruit - Has a girlfriend, 3 kids Sales/TikTokker - Gatlinburg, TN 4th evicted - Day 37 He was a caricature of himself on the episodes but he was more genuine on feeds. His and Cameron's bromance was like some over-countrified afterschool special and when they broke up, the tinkly piano shifted to a broken banjo string twang. He said some inappropriate things, he provided baked goods, and he was a good sport about his birthday roast. He was a victim of the heavily layered and interwoven alliance mess, so this feller had to skedaddle back to hawkin' moonshine in Gatlinburg.	Won: Nothing HOH 1 - Veto 2 - Noms 0/1/0 - HN 1   45 - Applicant - Divorced Geriatric physician/burlesquer - Seattle, WA 3rd evicted - Day 23 He painted a target on himself by winning the first two vetos and the second HOH, and he knew that. He started out fun and lively but he got HOHitis so bad his own alliance orchestrated a blindside plan to put him up and out. His campaign pitches were painful, right? As he gave marathon speeches, right? In his soft breathy voice, right? To anyone he could corner for an hour, right? He was a superb comp host and game show emcee for one of the few group activities they did.
Won: Nothing HOH 1 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 0   24 - Recruit - Single Bartender - Nashville, TN 2nd evicted - Day 16 Four people were already nominated when she won the first HOH and all she had to do was remove two. She spent most of the first days repeating she wanted an alliance of eight, which she eventually pulled together, with F2, F3, F4 along the way. She had it made but then found out everyone else knew about her eight and she spent the rest of her HOH week in tears. Then she hit the block and campaigned poorly, but at least she went out fighting.	Won: Nothing HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/1 - HN 0   25 - Recruit - Single Molecular biologist - Houston, TX 1st evicted - Day 9 She was on the block when she started to pitch and double-dip, and you can't blame her for that. Being new to BB, that's what she'd seen on the shows, and most everyone else started doing the same thing right away anyway. But Kirsten became an easy scapegoat since she wasn't in their inner power circles. She would have been good feeds: she planned a scorching nominee speech, but then opted to go out classy and didn't use it.
Won: Nothing HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 1   30 - Survivor applicant - Single Illustrator - Coral Springs, FL Ejected Day 8 Between hamsters thinking he was a secret doctor and feedsters thinking he was a secret twin, his week was full of unintentional comedy. He added to that by not knowing the show or that the game had started without him, then he worked hard to join the game in progress, with no success. Then he dropped the n-word, and then he was gone.
