Julie Chen has wrapped herself in a shiny purple sheet–I mean maternity top–as she tells us that “school’s out” and, as we suspected, everyone’s out for themselves after this eviction; no more cliques. The recap of the last couple of shows refer to Lydia and Natalie as “Jessie’s Girls”. I think Rick Springfield should be offended. Julie comes back to tell us that there will be a new power that lies in the hands of America. Hmmm, OK. She kicks it into clips about this being “the banana’s final appeal” and manages to keep a straight face. There are advantages to your host being the Chenbot. Jimmy Fallon couldn’t have gotten through that reading with a gun to his head.
