He also finds the other BA. He tells Genie about it, then realizes Xander has his! Tell Shan about it.
Over at Blue, Naseer is scheming. Sydney finds the BA! Did SHE just bury it?

Ep 4:
Just realized Xander reminds me of BB Tyler!

Oh jeez....Erica tells DeShawn she thinks Syd needs to go....then he goes to Syd and TELLS her! Then Syd is all 'I'm good looking; smart; tough player..." Well, if it does come down to you or her, I know Erica WINS, so you're gone, chic,

BUT, Shan opens it, reads it, learns the phrase, and wraps Ricard's bracelet in it. She also gives her extra vote to Ricard, since she's now lost hers.

Ep 10:
I'm seeing BB flashback to the Cookout Alliance.....I feel Shan, Liana, Danny, and DeShawn are turning this into a race war.....Dude, there HAS been black winners, Asian winners, red-blooded American winners. I don't think players think 'Oh, we got to get out the minorities 1st!'.....it's more GAME PLAY! But then again, what do I know? There might be some unconscious bias on my part, and I consider myself a very open-minded person who, after a while, the color of your skin makes no difference to me, once I get to know you!
