Yesterday, Kevin had his last swim in the pool. Had the others known that it would have been their last dive with the Spanish Stallion, more would have joined him. Daddy John took time to say his thank yous and goodbyes to the other guardians, though they thought it a normal and a somewhat paranoid assumption on his part. Until the last minute, no one had any hint that Kevin and Daddy John had already opted for a voluntary exit. It was a shock to all when Kuya announced that, in fact, voting had been stopped since Wednesday to respect the Spanish pair’s decision.
All had stunned looks on their faces. Mommy Sandy wore Daddy John’s signature black shirt, explaining that she understood him and reminded her of her husband. Mommy Minda couldn’t believe that Daddy John didn’t see it to the end. Even Tita Anna was teary-
eyed and she later told Kuya that he was closest to her of all the male guardians. She was happy that they were able to have a sense of closure and now remembered him as someone who intellectually stimulated her. Josef felt a sense of closeness to Daddy John, especially after their talk. He remembered how Daddy John said the he regarded Josef as a son, something that touched the rowdy teen. Of all the teens, Alex was the one obviously affected by Kevin’s exit. They were like twins, he said, and had been inseparable since day one.
After Kevin’s voluntary exit yesterday and Beauty’s win in the immunity game, 10 housemates were left at the edge of their seats, awaiting this week’s nominees. The first batch was composed of Robi, Nan and Alex, all yet to feel the stress of a possible eviction. From them, the highest pointer from the guardians’ votes, Robi 
received the first spot on the nominees’ list. The guardians felt that since he was already well off and may miss his dad, he had no need of the win and was expendable. Tied at 10 points each, Josef and Jolas join the list. The housemates felt that Jolas was too lazy and tended to boss others around; one felt that he was a threat, showing that reality of competition was already a factor in the decision. Josef has yet to experience not being nominated. Reasons against him included offensive jokes, problems that included others, recent distance from housemates, and that he simply had not changed his ways. Rona, who got 7 votes, was in the list because of the tie. Some felt that she missed her mom too much already, that she complained a lot and may be seeking attention. All were at a loss at what to say and offered a generic plea for votes. How will the three neophyte nominees fare this week? Will the RoRo pair see it through? Will Jolas take on a more active role in the house? Will Josef change his ways on his fourth nomination? Catch up with them on 
Uber and on PBB Teen Edition Plus Primetime.
