Are Alex and his wing woman, Miss P, set to get egg on their faces? Or have they poached a steal on fellow housemates and Africa?

The clucking co-conspirators stirred up a clutch of eggscitement in the Big Brother Amplified house on Monday night, after staging a cock and bull fight!
S’true!

Regular fans of the show will know that these two are the flip sides of the same egg timer, always trying to cook up something … or the other. The aim is to sow confusion and division amongst fellow housemates.

They were rumbled last week, when some housemates overheard them plotting. Since then they’ve scrambled to put Humpty Dumpty together again!

Alex and Miss P decided that they needed to stage a dramatic ‘falling out’ so that people would think they were no longer in the same devious nest.

During a sneak conversation on Sunday night, Alex whispered to Miss P that they needed to put all their eggs in one basket and play hardboiled … eish, I mean hardball.

“We must go in even harder, there must be a big fight,” Alex said, egging on Miss P.

They decided that they should use Alex being attracted to Weza as the spark for the fake showdown. The Ghanaian even suggested that Miss P should slap him.

Miss P was quick to burn that idea, crowing that it could get her evicted - as had happened with Tanzania’s Lotus.

Broken Eggshells

On Monday night, they brought their poultry … oops, paltry … plan to the boil. Literally.

Alex, aka ‘The Hunger’, hovered near the stove as Miss P boiled about a dozen or so eggs. Some of them popped in the pot, causing Alex to crack.

He threw all the eggs away - to the horror of other housemates - rushed upstairs and carried Miss P’s bedding downstairs. For some weird reason, he was wearing Miss P’s pants, which he took off and threw on the ‘evicted’ bed!
Guess your mind gets a bit fried, when you’re faking the drama.

Still, it gave Miss P the cue she was looking for; she jumped out of the pot and into the frying pan, crying fowl … errr, foul: it must be because Alex now wanted to jump into Weza’s pants, she cock-a-doodle-doo’d.

Eish, ever heard of “liar, liar, your pants are on fire”?!

Weza told Miss P “to keep my name out your game”. She said she hated how her name was being used to egg people on, or piss them off.

After flipping, a cock-a-hoop Alex lay outside, a smirk firmly planted on his face.
It seems that more than one housemate bought the eggs-aggerated actions, though. Milli for one, Kim for another and also Weza, who later tried to calm him down upstairs. No yolk …

Alex, obviously spurred on by the attention, continued with the cockamamie. He clucked that Miss P would see “a side of me she’s never seen before”, and claimed he was on the verge of slapping her.

Weza cautioned him about using violent language and urged him to apologise. But, she added, “I’m not going to enter this soap opera”.

Karen, who joined them, was quick to say “you had nothing to do with this, Weza”.

After the feathers had settled, the cameras caught Alex congratulating Miss P on her eggs-cellent performance; she had done good, he said.

Believe it! What a couple of eggheads!!

Alex needs to be careful in his quest to rule the roost. You can be a rooster today and a feather duster tomorrow! Oh what a scrambled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive …

OK, enough eggspressionism for today.

Karen Keeps It Karen

As most fans likely know by now, Naija wild child Karen, as Head of the House, nominated herself. When it came to that perennial ‘swap and switch’ moment, she hummed and aah-ed, as Biggie urged her to make it snappy.

She first said she’d save herself and replace with Sharon O. Biggie reminded her that Sharon O was already up.

More frowning and lip biting … OK, she’d put Vimbai up. Then, as Biggie started the rundown of names, she said “no, f*%k it, I’ll leave myself up”.
After she left the Chat Room, she rushed outside and burst into tears. Our Bernadina was the first person to comfort her.

All I can say is that Karen is a one-off!
