I could not agree with you more
I was thinking of that too -- it was a sort of an update on the Gnat Matt showmance. He just shoved her away. It was a good object lesson about shipboard romances -- not to put your whole heart into them, as they are by nature temporary and formed from a small pool of people.
I hope April sees Ollie for what he is from a new POV, how he talks big and doesn't deliver and hides behind women -- whisper sisters he sends out to do what he thinks they should do. He often sizes up a situation well, from his litter, so he seems to make sense, though in the grand scheme of things he's out of it. That little temper tantrum was ridiculous; he had no one to blame but himself.
Here's a good challenge for all; I'll post it separately also and try to get a thread going. Along the lines of Aesop's Fables, what object lessons can we take from anecdotes in BB -- and an anecdote may well be one person's entire experience there. I got on to this from thinking, re: Ollie's tantrum and why everyone saw it as an outrageous reaction, and thinking about how he was boasting, "Well, I own Dan. I have all the power. I control what will happen in the game from here on . . . [and for the cameras, his ego, and for "America":] I don't think that has ever been done before. Ha HA!"
Everyone (except for BB10 production, "YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO TALK ABOUT PRODUCTION!" eeeekkk!) saw his tantrum as foolish and outrageous because they saw the "agreement" as foolish and outrageous, and the moral of the story is,
"If you think something is too good to be true, it probably is."
