- The house has been turned into a laboratory.
- BB has selected “Professor Ali” and “Professor Dean” with interns Hanah and Lily to take part in the task.
- Housemates are dressed up as rats. Ali, Dean, Hanah and Lily are the only ones that can pass the shopping task.
- They must correctly predict the experiments in order to win.
- Intern Hanah is in the DR – Feels like work working with Dean and Ali. Still unhappy with Izaaz and Khaled being switched. Nothing to say to Ali.
- Emma snogged Mick Hucknall from Simply Red after a concert.
- Will the lab rats work under pressure? 1 pair will be tested without any pressure and another will be tested with pressure.
- Interns have a buzzer to shock the rats, and the professors have to encourage the rats.
- Will the lab rats work under pressure? Dean tells BB that they would better under pressure.
- BB has chosen Izaaz & Nathan and Sarah & Baked Potato.
- Izaaz & Nathan will be working under calm pressure. Sarah & BP will be working under intense pressure.
- Very different situations in both rooms. Both teams complete the task.
- Its lunchtime. The professors and interns have given proper food. The rats have been given a bowl of vegetables and nuts.
- Lab rats are outside getting some fresh air.
- Lily ate 1 and half chickens during lunch.
- Nathan and BP are talking to each other through the cages.
- Will the lab rats resist temptation? The professors predict that they won’t eat anything.
- Emma & Thomas has been chosen. They resist eating the sweet treats in the DR.
- Khaled and Marcello are next. Will they resist temptation? The professors predict that they won’t eat anything. They don’t eat anything.
- Segun is in a bubble ball rolling around the garden.
- Emma revealed that Hanah had a crush on Ali on the first day. Ali thinks that Marcello ‘turned’ on Ali when he found out that she is a lesbian.
- Dinner has been served to the rats. The rats have been given raisins and nuts. The scientists have been given takeaway. Lily is sick from eating.
- Sarah is in the DR – She is ‘done’ – She has reached her limit.
- Lily pukes.
- Final experiment: Does women have better intuition than men?
- Lab rat Martha and Segun will see 2 of the same item, but one is good and one is bad, and they must choose the good one. They need to get at least 2 correct to pass.
- Martha must take a bite of a donut now. She chose the incorrect donut. It contained hot sauce. Segun eats a jelly donut.
- Martha chose an envelope. It had “Good Egg” in it, and Segun had “Bad Egg”. Under a cloche was an Easter egg and a regular egg.
- Segun is to smash the regular egg on his head. No hesitation in doing it.
- Martha must choose a ‘bin’. She chooses the correct bin and gets covered in confetti. Segun gets covered in bin juice
- Segun in the DR – The bin juice is flowing around him.
- Lily: “To Scientology!!” and everyone else was like “noooo”
- The scientists have been brought back to the house.
- BB has the results.
- The scientists incorrect predicted that the rats would work under pressure.
- The scientists correctly predicted that the rats would resist temptation.
- The scientists correctly predicted that women would have better intuition than men.
- They have got 2 out of 3 correct. They pass, and they have been granted a luxury shopping budget.
- The rats has been set free!
- Most of the housemates outside listening to Marcello rapping.
- Ali in the DR – She tried to have small bits of interaction with Hanah today. She believes Hanah only cared about the friendship with the boys that are nominated and not the rest of the house. She doesn’t have any negative feelings against Hanah.
- Lily in the DR – She wants sweets and chocolate and full fat Coca-cola. No meat, no veg, “Who the fuck adds coriander to food?” “It’s not ethical”
- The housemates are in high spirits after the passing the shopping task.
- Khaled in the DR – Hanah is a very honest person. He prefers to around the ‘boys’. Doesn’t speak with Ali and Lily at all. Khaled knows that they won’t be friends.
- They are playing ‘Who’s most likely’ Nathan asks “…to lie to make themselves look good?” Lily blurts out, “…to be fake?” Lily points to Segun for calling Ali a ‘red witch’.
- Martha in the DR – Thanks BB for the nice evening after the task.
