News
from the fishbowl:
Heather is banished!
GOD
LOVES HER, but the other fish—and
44% of online voters—were a little
less enthusiastic about bubbly prom queen
Heather. There was plenty of ill-will toward
Cindy too, but when all the votes were counted,
Heather had the most against her.
Read on to see what happened in the fishbowl
last week, then watch
the video of Heather being sent
home in a way she didn’t quite expect.
Week
One:
7/5
Hello, my name is…
Some scales were ruffled almost immediately
as Carassius asked to be called "Omega,"
after the healthy oil commonly found in fish,
but no one would. Then Heather made everyone
say grace, and Carassius yelled out, "Hey
Jesus, Please please us." The other Bowl
Guests had a good laugh, but Heather made
them wait to eat until she was done reciting
Second Corinthians from memory.
7/6 Ralph's marriage advice
Ralph, the only divorcee in the group,
opened up to his bowlmates about the pitfalls
of marriage. As Heike looked on in horror,
Ralph discussed the intimate details of his
wife's failings, before turning to the Big
Brother camera and saying, "My ex-wife
Desiree Quigglesbury of Bismarck, North Dakota,
is a bad lover who cheats on her taxes."
Heike asked if there might be two sides to
the story, and Ralph responded, "Maybe,
but you won't hear her side every night on
national TV." He then put on a t-shirt
with his wife's Visa card number and her weight
written on it. Cindy floated into the group
discussion, but then someone knocked the bowl
and she floated away.
7/8 Big Brother challenge
Big Brother gave the Bowl Guests their
first challenge: keep a candle lit for two
hours to win some extra food. Unfortunately,
the fish were unable even to get their candle
lit, perhaps due to the water in their bowl.
While the mood was mostly jovial and fun,
the contestants began to resent Heather when
she started cheerleading in the middle of
the challenge, but only for herself. Later
she upset her bowlmates further by praying
for everyone in the bowl except for those
fish that weren't her. Next challenge: drying
flowers.
7/11 Morning chores
All the Bowl Guests were up early for
morning chores—eating algae, chewing
rocks and tending the chickens. For the third
morning in a row, Cindy refused to help and
the other fish were starting to notice. Even
Heike feels like "it just isn't right,
ja. She is like a citizen who refuses to fight
for her Fatherland." Heather told Big
Brother during her daily "confessional,"
that "God didn't put fish here to float
around on their back, dreaming away the day."
And Carassius told Ralph in a "private"
moment, "I think Cindy likes me. If I'm
going to score—and I am going to score—it's
probably with her. I do wish she would wash
more, since she smells like death." Ralph
made no comment on Cindy but did reveal that
his ex-wife shoplifted on three occasions
in 1987.

Heather’s last words: “I just
want to thank God for the opportunity to be
here. I was surprised He chose me to leave
the bowl so soon, but I know He has a plan.
There must be a reason He doesn’t want
me there anymore. I guess he's planning to
poison the water or something.”
