Biggie arranges a special supper for the top six All Stars house contestants with surprise visitors from season 1.
Given that there was no black envelope and no nominations, Monday night was allowed to be different because there are just 6 finalists living in the house.
The housemates were treated to a touching film compilation of their loved ones as a reminder of the world they had temporarily left behind, which set the tone for the evening. As they viewed messages from family and friends, tears were freely shed, and their feelings ranged from joy to longing. The films left them feeling open and connected while also overflowing their cups with joy and homesickness.
The top 6 finalists were curious and speculative about the two extra seats that were discovered in the yard for their finalist dinner, which was when the actual surprise occurred. They exchanged whispers and sly looks as they pondered the intended recipients of the extra seats. Pere predicted that Biggie might be bringing in a surprise guest, and his forecast would soon come to pass. Pere is known for his quick thinking.
Ebuka and Gideon, housemates from season 1, made a stunning entrance into the home to the surprise and delight of the All Stars. They talked fondly of their own time in the spotlight and contrasted the difficulties they had with those the All Stars experienced as they reflected on their own experiences.
This supper was made more wonderful by the frank and unfiltered discourse that took place around the table. Everything was fair game, from talking about their families to breaking down the subtle nuances of their gaming styles.
The housemates were concerned that Ebuka might take one of them out of the All Stars house as the evening progressed, which sparked a flurry of rumors about prospective turns and turns. To their great relief, however, Ebuka remained a kind guest, adding to the lively atmosphere of the evening and enabling the housemates to fully appreciate the uncommon chance of his company.
Mercy Eke and Pere appeared to have an especially strong connection after the jokes, personal stories, and revelations. They finished dinner with a passionate kiss outside the garden entrance, their hearts and tummies full. But their spark was swiftly replaced by flirtatious banter as they made fun of each other for maybe never speaking again.
Mercy Eke and Pere seem to be unable to stay away from one another, which begs the issue of whether their blooming romance will take off in the final week or remain a tantalizing question mark until the very end. How this intriguing connection turns out will only become clear with time.
