'Big Brother' brings it

This season started off terribly -- not only did the show perpetuate the new trend of bringing back old contestants (which we are SO over), but the game got reset after four weeks and let the veterans start playing, which anyone could see coming a mile away. Bor-ing.

However. In the past week, Dan has hatched a plan that will cement him as one of the best to ever play the game -- it rivals Dr. Will -- and the house has gone topsy-turvy. This is what I've waited all summer for.
