Jane Austen: Welcome to another episode of Big Brother. Our houseguests have now been living together for almost a week and tensions are starting to rise. More than a few people have been growing annoyed at Miss Marianne.

Elizabeth: (diary room) I tried to approach Miss Marianne with an offer of an alliance for the women in the house, and she would not have any of it.

Elinor (diary room): My sister is not using her sense in the game. She will not think of strategy. She wants only to enjoy her time here and does not consider how to keep going.

Jane Austen: Also, many are resentful of Miss Bertram's surprise Head of Household win.

Brandon (diary room): Miss Bertram did nothing to earn such a position of safety. It was merely chance that brought her to that letter first.

Mary (diary room): Poor Miss Bertram, so out-of-sorts because of my brother Henry. She does not realize he is the type of man who needs to make women fall in love with him, but does not so easily return affection.

Jane Austen: And the friendship between Miss Dashwood and Mr. Ferrars continues to grow with each passing day.

Caroline (diary room): Miss Dashwood certainly seems to be keeping Mr. Ferrars all to himself. Why should a handsome young man of a good family give attention to such a plain girl who, as I have heard, has no dowry of which to speak.

Mary: (diary room) I have vowed never again to fall in love with a younger brother personally, especially one who is destined for the clergy. But I must say if Miss Dashwood is interested in Mr. Ferrars, she must start showing her feeling more openly if she is to procure him. There's nothing wrong with a bit of flirting.

(Later, Caroline sits with Maria Bertram)

Caroline: If Mr. Crawford uses the Veto on himself, which I sure he will, I would advise you to use it against the elder Miss Dashwood. She is conniving and duplicitous, you may depend on it.

(At that moment, Elinor passes by).

Caroline: Miss Dashwood, do be a dear and bring our cups into the kitchen to wash. I am not accustomed to living without servants you are, so it would be most exhausting to me.

Maria (diary room): If I am to choose a replacement nominee tomorrow, I am decided it must be one of the Dashwood sisters.

Jane Austen: The next day, the houseguests gathered in the living room for their first Veto Meeting.

Mr. Crawford: I have decided…to use the Power of Veto…on myself. Miss Bertram, you must now choose a replacement nominee.

Maria: I nominate Miss Marianne.

Maria (diary room): If I cannot get Mr. Crawford out, I will have to break his heart by sending away the girl he so admires.

(Later in the day, Lydia and Mr. Wickham emerge from the dormitory together, both laughing.)

Edmund: I do not like that. A young girl like Miss Lydia should take more precaution to guard her reputation.

Willoughby: Indeed, and affection will lead to alliances that cannot be reasoned against. They must be dealt with swiftly.

Brandon: On that note, may I also add that I have noted a particular friendship growing between Mr. Darcy and Mr. Ferrars. I do believe they may be aligned with each other and if so, they must be watched carefully.

Jane Austen: And now it is the evening of our first live eviction. One by one the houseguests will go into the Diary Room to cast their vote in secret. Mr. Darcy, Miss Marianne, as nominees you are not allowed to vote. The Head of Household will only vote in the case of a tie.

Edmund: I vote to evict Miss Marianne.

Wickham: I vote to evict Miss Marianne. She seemed only interested in Mr. Willoughby and Mr. Crawford, so I shan't miss her.

Brandon: I vote to evict Miss Marianne. Know when you watch this, I do this out of a firm belief it is for your own good. There are dangerous men in the house, with secrets I dare not reveal. Only know you are safer without than within.

Caroline: I vote to evict Miss Marianne.

Mary: I vote to evict Miss Marianne.

Elizabeth: I vote to evict Miss Marianne. Although I lament turning against one of my own sex, I must vote with what I feel the majority will be doing or else I fear I shall become a target.

Edward: I vote to evict Miss Marianne.

Willoughby: I vote to evict Miss Marianne. I cannot be seen as impartial to you it will hurt my chances. The prize money is very important to me, but believe me, despite this, the affection I showed you was real.

Fanny: I vote to evict Miss Marianne.

Henry: I vote to evict Miss Marianne. Yes, we did have some laughs but I am aligned with Mr. Darcy and certainly can't vote him out for you.

Elinor: I vote to evict Mr. Darcy. Although some have tried to persuade me, I cannot turn my back on my sister.

Lydia: I vote to evict Miss Marianne.

Jane Austen: By a vote of 11 to 1, Miss Marianne, I'm sorry, you are the first person to be evicted from the Big Brother house. You have one minute to say goodbye and then you must leave.

Marianne: (eyes welling up in tears) Am I thus betrayed, betrayed by all except one. I know it was you who tried to save me, dear Elinor. Oh, even you Mr. Willoughby? (starts sobbing) Farewell. I am glad to leave such company. (exits through front door).

Jane Austen: But wait, our night is not over yet. It is time to decide who the next Head of Household will be. Please go into the courtyard.

(The houseguests go into the courtyard, where 13 large, fake trees have been mounted).

Jan Austen: As a reminder, Miss Bertram, as current Head of Household you will not be eligible to play in this competition. For the rest, your task is to climb up your tree and once there, hold on to the trunk. The person who manages to remain on their tree as long as possible wins. Who will win the next Head of Household? Who will be picked for nomination? And who will win the Power of Veto? Tune in next time to find out.
