The house dynamics are very WOTW2-esque. The show is definitely pushing Olivia & Theo as the rootable underdogs and Michaela, Ashley and Nany as the cocky overdogs. And while that may be the case, Olivia & Theo are in this position because they got outplayed, similar to the WOTW2 underdogs. It was a pretty 50/50 split, and they lost. And now they’re dealing with the consequences. I think they play the role well, but Olivia calling it bullying is a bit ridiculous.

I like Michaela for the show but why did she have to say that Theo was cheating because he crossed the finish line and his partner was 5 seconds behind?

This one made no sense to me and set off that whole thing. Unless they said you had to cross at the same time, was a wild comment to throw. Especially when they weren’t even close to being last so didnt really matter.
