I let another spoiler fly this morning, namely that Survivor Dee is indeed in the game and is the first HOH. Julie wore black, as I said in my first round of premiere spoilers, as a verification tool. Yes, she often wears black, but no matter.I did add a few East coast air show links to the left sidebar so hopefully they'll help those who need them. I take no responsibility for their safety or security, so use at your own risk, use ad blockers, don't click on or download anything, and all the usual precautions. I'll try to tackle it here but the premiere was A LOT! It started with a title card "In loving memory of Mickey Lee (1990-2025)" with a lovely pic of her doing heart-hands. Julie did her mini house tour and time warp announcement for those who've been under a rock the last couple weeks (tv-onlies and other casuals), and she said there are 94 cameras and 113 microphones in the house. Last year had 112 cameras per some official source - I don't make these things up - but that was up from 94 the prior year so maybe somebody goofed on that last year. No biggie.Anyway, from there the ladies' intro packages ran, and the seven of them were gathered onstage where Julie welcomed them to the "social experment" [sic] and told them it's an all-woman season, but she quickly added that she was joking about that. Then came the men's intro packages and all 14 of the new kids were assembled onstage. Julie sent them inside in assigned groups: Rome, Taylor, Ashley, Jason, Kamu (Jason went in first - oop); then LaTrice, Mallory, Yash, Barrett, Lyric; and then Chuck, Haley, Drew, Melody. After some preliminary greetings and chaos, Julie told them "for the first time" nobody currently in the house will be the first HOH. That's not true since a similar set up happened for BB11 move-in, so that landed on the goof tally, and she told them not everyone competing this season had moved in, which several of them had already figured out. Campy chaos revved up then as Julie alternated with future Enzo via video to explain three groups of four people would compete for safety, which the winner of each comp would get, and each winner would also "recruit" and bring back a reality icon. Future Enzo told them the dining table is a time machine (a times table?!) and to activate it they'd need to find 12 BBtonium vials with correct equations that were hidden around the house. Everyone found one except Ashley and Barrett, so they had to sit out the safety comps (and maybe they got a little flirty).The first safety comp sent Kamu, LaTrice, Mallory, Rome to July 9, 1988 and a Long Beach mall, where a young blonde woman (meant to be young Angela Murray, played by Cecilia Diamond) made 80s references. Competitors had to hang 80s items on the wobbly rack/tree we've seen before. The first to balance eight items for ten seconds won, and that was Rome. He delivered a letter to young Angela and after everyone was gathered back in the house, current Angela ding-donged and joined the season. The next group to activate the hot tub dining table time machine was Chuk, Drew, Haley, Taylor. They were sent to July 7, 2018 and a jungle setting, where they each had to place planks of different sizes onto platforms to make a pathway so they could cross a "river." Chuk won that, and delivered a letter to Jeff Probst. Back inside, Rick Devens ding-donged and joined the season.Next Jason, Lyric, Melody, Yash rode the table to June 27, 2010 and a Vegas club where they had to answer questions about how many times Bahama Mama, Fuzzy Navel, Purple Hooter were mentioned in audio clips. They were eliminated in rounds by exploding cocktails (slime), in order: Melody, Yash, Lyric, giving Jason the win. He set his letter on a podium, and back inside Rachel ding-donged and entered the house dramatically, dressed in red of course. So Rome, Chuk, Jason earned safety this week, and Angela, Rick/Devens (I need to find out his official hamster name), Rachel would compete to become the first HOH. All 17 then sat down at the times table to travel to 175 million BC, and they magically changed into cave man/woman outfits and went to the backyard where they found a volcano. Rachel was doing her campy bits when a dinosaur came along and threw her into the volcano. Yep.Julie told us Rachel had "met an untimely demise" and was out of the game, but a replacement would be found for her. Julie snuck into the house to ride the table to someone from sometime, and said we'd find out who the real #17 is on tomorrow's Unlocked premiere (that will be Dee). She also said they'd launch a vote that would "impact the first six weeks of the game," and that the feeds would start "immediately after" Unlocked, and that was that. The credits rolled as a burned-up skeletal Rachel laid in her lava bed inside the volcano. Love one another.
