If there was any sense of comradeship between fellow newbies Tom and Bea, it well and truly evaporated this afternoon.
Earlier, Tom told Bea she should be careful about how her blossoming relationship with Halfwit would be perceived on the outside, so a naturally concerned Bea went to ask Halfwit's advice. When Halfwit heard what Tom had said, he challenged Tom, prompting Tom to tear a strip off Bea for repeating him.
Are you getting all this?
"Don't drop me in the ****," an angry Tom barked at Bea. "I gave you that advice between you and I. It's such ****-stirring ********. You know better than that Bea, don't ******* play me," he added.
"Your advice was to not be leading him on," said a confused-looking Bea.
"No," snapped Tom, "it was to understand how your relationship with Halfwit will be perceived in the outside world. We both know that Halfwit is a popular guy."
"Yes," agreed Bea, "for good reason, because he's a lovely guy."
"The reason I gave you the advice is that people on the outside will see a pretty girl coming into the House, a bit bohemian, Halfwit's type and going straight towards Halfwit and creating a relationship really fast," explained Tom.
"But that's making it far more sinister than it is, I'm just someone who's got something in common with him," protested Bea.
"Shut up and listen a minute," snapped Tom, before going over the same ground again and again, making it clear that he was unhappy about his name being mentioned.
But by this point Bea had heard enough. "It seems impossible to talk to anyone about anything in the House without it being exaggerated," she said and left Tom on his own.
"******* game player," hissed Tom when she was out of earshot.
Hmm. Pot? Kettle Black ?
He is right that she is using it to her advantage because Freddie is popular and she might be playing a game, but on the other hand I can see her point it was none of his business but she shouldn't have told Freddie. Seems like Bea is stirring again.
