WHODUNNIT WEEK 3 PREDICTIONS
Well my Don predictions have officially been foiled. Amazingly, none of the house-guests ever voted for Don. I guess that explains why they're the ones playing and I'm sitting at home. The question now becomes which house guest owns a mountain lion and chills in the attic. With only nine players left and my top suspect out of the game, it's time for me to reevaluate.
Cris: Cris is still in my list of top suspects. Cris was in a 3-way tie for the most votes along with Geno and Kam, and everyone is still really unsure as to why a beauty queen is in such a diabolical game with professional crime solvers. Lindsey and Melina have gone as far as to predict Cris in all 3 episodes, and have been spared in all 3 episodes. On the contrary, Don predicted Cris this week and met his death. The fact that she was spared this week was surprising, seeing as she seems to be weaker than Ulysses and Kam. Cris is officially on my radar.
Dana: For the second week in a row, Dana barely got by. But this time she was a lot more composed in doing so. She also seemed careless when it came to the riddle, and she hasn't done much to solve any riddle thus far. Her personality change and her lack of interest are details to be noted. It was also the first episode Dana decided not to inspect the body, but maybe she just felt the need to mix things up after being scared the prior week. She also seemed strangely happy to see Don in the morning, shouldn't she be concerned. Dana's actions this week in contrast to prior weeks have me really suspicious, much more-so than the first 2 weeks.
Geno: The Geno/Kam vandetta continues. It was an awkward exchange between the 2 of them at the crime scene, luckily they had Ronnie there to do all the work for them. Furthermore he became Ronnie's right hand man, and seems 2nd in command when it comes to the newly formed counter alliance. Geno was among the top vote-getters in the house, but that's mainly because Kam has his alliance brainwarped into thinking so. I'm not so sold.
Kam: The plot thickened for Kam this week. After controlling the game for 2 weeks, the house got smart and plotted against him. Yet somehow, he and his entire alliance solved the crime further than Don and Dana. This leads to the suspicion that one of their "big 3" is the killer, and is feeding the other two (and possibly Lindsey) enough information to keep them around for good measure. The other two have completely bought into Kam's Geno theory and Kam continues to be the puppet master of his alliance, and he kinda comes off as the snobbish type who might own a mansion and a mountain lion. Keep your eyes open.
Lindsey: There's only two possible ways Lindsey could have been the strongest player. Either A.) She's the killer or B.) Ronnie confessed his findings to her, and her ties with both alliances we're enough to give the best case. Frankly, B is actually pretty believable if you think about it. She's exposed to the most information. But isn't that what a good killer does, create that bond with all his/her victims and make it easier to stab each one in the back? It's quite possible, and since when is an engineer such a people pleaser? Lindsey is really a 50/50 call for me at this point, possibly my dark horse candidate.
Melina: Melina is still hard to get a definite read on. On the one hand she comes off as a loose cannon and emotionally unstable, but on the other hand she's consistently voted for Cris and been spared all 3 weeks. My hunch is still that it's not Melina. She's too invested in the game and her connections with other people, but I've been wrong before.
Ronnie: Ronnie actually receives my nomination for "least likely to be a killer". He's way to intelligent and active in solving the riddles and crimes. He easily dissected the crime scene for Kam and Geno, and he's been solid on the riddles. He does control the new alliance, but his interests in staying in the game and gaining and sharing information seem to genuine. He shook it up again by being conservative about his findings in the attic (according to Dana) but the entire house seems to respect him as the strongest player. If this is all a ploy though, it's been done to perfection and I'll be forced to withdraw my "lltbak" nomination and replacing it with an Oscar nomination.
Sasha: Sasha is still a mystery to me. She's quiet, yet good at what she does. She had the least airtime of the players this week, but her direct threat to Lindsey about choosing a side was quite a bold move from such a quiet presence. It's often the quiet ones you have to watch out for, no one suspects them to slip in the silent blade when others foolishly do their dirty work for them.There's certainly no reason to dismiss any suspicion of Sasha, but there's no direct reason to accuse her yet either. Sasha's development still needs more time to draw better conclusions.
Ulysses: It's a possibility! Ulysses would be the perfect villain, he's latched to Kam like a leach and politely sits back while Kam takes care of the cutthroat business. We haven't forgotten his miraculous victory last week as the strongest player either. Other important things to note are that Ulysses has not been directly involved in the riddle solving activity, and all 3 weeks he's chosen to inspect the body. In those 3 trips, the only information he's given out is the possibility of a musket round, which was false. He's also played the social game well, being congenial with everyone, making Kam out to be the enemy, making Dante out to be a liar, and even Dana doesn't seem too upset with him anymore. Ulysses is another top prospect.
Final Prediction: The case results still have me on the conclusion that the murderer is a member of the Kam trio. I don't think it's Kam though, I think Kam is brilliantly being used as a pawn for a greater force of evil. That leaves Ulysses and Cris. If it's not one of those three then I'm calling Sasha, who would have brilliantly aligned herself with "the good guys". But for this week, I'm really torn between Ulysses and Cris. Both have solid arguements, but I will play by the same rules as the game: one prediction only. So my official week 3 prediction will be...Cris?
