WHODUNNIT WEEK 4 PREDICTIONS

     Week 4 shook things up in Rue Manor. We finally got to witness Kam in panic mode, Lindsey became isolated from the remaining players, and we make a 180 degree shift from Mountain Lions to Horses. Ulysses died after being one of the stronger players in the game, but that goes to show how quickly the game can turn. With over 1/3 of the original cast already dead, the pressure continues to rise as the eight remaining players attempt to solve ridiculous crimes and unmask the killer, and so do we.

Cris: Cris is still very high up on my suspects list. Somehow the beauty queen was able to out-perform two attorneys in "state your case", that should immediately draw red flags. Miss Nebraska continues to act nothing like the stereotypical, dim-witted, princess that so many other beauty queens and models tend to on reality television. She's tied with Kam for the most accusations (10), however while all of Kam's are evenly spread, all 10 of Cris's come from Lindsey and Melina who have faithfully voted for her every week.

Dana: After being in the bottom two for back to back weeks, Dana emerged "state your case" as the strongest player. Finally her nursing experience aided her, helping her instantaneously solve Geno's schematic. This was a completely different Dana than the girl who kept switching tapes in the VCR when trying to effortlessly solve last week's riddle. Dana has been consistently inconsistent, showing both moments of brilliance and moments of stupidity. It's a bit fishy....

Geno: The bar trivia host continues to appear much more intelligent than his occupation title would suggest. Geno continues his very systematic social game, and at this point he seems on even playing field with Ronnie as the leader of the team of five. Geno quickly solved the library safe riddle, which is interesting considering it's the first time anyone knew a library even existed in the mansion. His play to try to divide Kam and Cris from Ulysses and Lindsey was a brilliant attempt to destroy team unity and shake things up once again. Geno continues to draw more and more of my suspicion.

Kam: After starting the game out on such a strong note, the rest of the house has caught up with and maybe even passed Kam. Kam was in the bottom two this week, and he lost his right-hand man Ulysses. While the rest of the house used the Cyanide info, Kam predicted that Don was "scared to death". Honestly? Kam continues to try to give off a cool, composed style but he continues to sweat as his game is steadily declining and his division of the house finally begins to backfire in his face. 

Lindsey: From the audience's view, Lindsey certainly seems like an obvious choice. Even after being isolated by the house, and then further isolated by Geno at the end, Lindsey still manages to get a spare card, claiming that knowing there was something in the oven spared her. Her actions and performances in "state your case" never really seem to add up, yet by some miracle she's never been accused as the killer. You can expect that to change in coming weeks. Regardless, Lindsey still seems like a pawn on someone else's chess board. Or I'm just over thinking it.

Melina: Melina continues to be a mystery. We really learned no information on her this week, as her role has stooped down to a quiet follower of other leaders of the house. What Melina is good at is the social game, befriending not only her team but being a solid gal-pal with Lindsey and Cris as well. Even after 4 episodes, it's almost impossible to get a read on Melina, but that's partially because ABC doesn't allot her an even share of screen time with the others. 

Ronnie: Ronnie consistently dominates the crime-solving portion of the game. His work in the kitchen was superb and he even found a way to cover some of it up from the opposing team. He also makes frequent references to the numbers game and his odds of winning the money. In a house of division, Ronnie actually continues to encourage unity, even attempting to join forces with Kam's big three to flush out Lindsey. Ronnie's a huge threat to win the game, but that's the only threat he is to the rest of the house.

Sasha: After a quiet first half of the episode, Sasha made one big move that changed the entire outcome of the episode. Sasha sensed Lindsey was on to something she didn't lose sight of her, helping her team gain access to the riddle. Instead of becoming team MVP, she allows Geno to become the hero as she sits back in the shadows. The only new information we gain on Sasha is her new suspicion of Lindsey, and like Melanie her air-time seems cut a bit short. A lack of exposure and a lack of hard-evidence makes Sasha one of the lesser choices.

Final Prediction: The killer has made my work easier for me. I had it narrowed down to Ulysses and Cris last week and decided to go with Cris, and with the death of Ulysses and the scare of Kam that decision now seems more justified. I have no reason to throw anyone else ahead of her, so for the second consecutive week my official Whodunnit killer prediction will be Cris. $250,000 check can be made payable to Ryan Quigley.
