Valerie received an award for a game: a bowl of sinigang na baboy. She was asked to choose one housemate to share it with and, without batting an eyelash, she chose Ejay. She hasn’t forgotten the buko incident and, besides, Ejay was hungry and it was his fave dish. This got the other boys worked up and they even sang love songs to complement the sweet scene. Kuya then talked to Ejay and the Promdi Hottie confessed that he was in love with the Dazzling Doll. Thing is, he had no idea how to go about the courtship. Though he and Val were more comfy with each other ever since their cup punishment, he still knew nothing about stepping up to the next level. In the end, he asked his dad and Nan to help him out. Daddy Ike was also included in the Operation Ligaw.

Mommy Sandy voiced out her concerns to Kuya. Though she still retained her calm demeanor, there was a certain edge to her voice that held a warning that she meant business. In a nutshell, she wanted Nikki and Josef away from each other. They were simply too close for comfort. Kuya called Nikki in and the two talk. She was very concerned about the extra intimate relationship of the two in the house. An excerpt of their Q & A:

Status? Friends. (Uh huh..)

Why they hold hands? All do that. (Who else does?)

Is the one in Cebu a boyfriend? No. (But didn’t you say..?)

Are you lying? No. (Right.)

Mommy Sandy was not convinced. They were a conservative family, and having two boyfriends, or appearing to at the very least, was a definite no-no. This is even aside from the fact that Josef has a girlfriend outside. In her calm way, she clarified that she is only reminding Nikki of the situation, but here’s the catch: “If you do that, I’d rather go home nalang.” Kuya signaled Nikki to go back to the house, but before she did, she asked, “What if we like each other?” Mommy Sandy, truly a mother who wanted to give in to her daughter but is dead set on keeping her principles straight, told her to not rush into things and definitely not to do it inside the PBB house. As she later explains to Tita Anna, if they really want to, then they should finish their previous commitments outside first.

Afterwards, Nikki and Josef kept their distance. They later talked by the pool, and after their serious talk, resumed their “sweet mode”. This continued until morning when Nikki and Pris were first in the housemates’ punishments to dress and act as roosters, crowing at those who were still asleep. Nikki stayed by Josef’s side and even bit him on the arm. Josef, who was made to wear goggles occupied by one fighting fish per eye (Tita Anna’s violation, actually, since she kept on wearing shades in the house), had a hard time eating and resting, so Nikki kept him company. Josef warned her not to sleep, to which she responded that she wasn’t. She was thinking about him, her mom, and the guy outside. During a pool game, the two were caught on cam as they were again too close for comfort on one side. Unfortunately for them, this was shown to the guardians.
