Coaches in all sports are fond of the old saw "There's no 'I' in team." They usually fail to point out, however, that there is a "me" in team, and we started to see manifestations of that in Saturday's (Aug. 14) "Big Brother 5."

Now that Jase is gone, the remaining players -- with the exception of Michael, still carrying the torch for the Apple Dumpling Gang -- are casting about for new enemies, sort of like action-movie protagonists did at the end of the Cold War. Diane immediately finds some in Will, Nakomis and Karen.

Her reasoning? They made frowny faces when Adria won the Extreme Shuffleboard competition and became Head of Household. Adria noticed that too, and may use it as justification to draw first blood.

Adria and Diane are also thinking that the rest of their former teammates are a little weirded out by Adria's twin, Natalie, entering the game on her own. Nakomis slips and wonders who "they" are planning to nominate.

Karen, meanwhile, is just smelling a power trip from Adria, and advises Will and Nakomis not to drop any names if Adria asks their opinions on nomination. She presumes, I guess, that her new crew will die harder this way.

That's probably not a bad point, but Karen then immediately undermines herself by saying the twins are "worse than Jase." Come on now: Adria at least knows she's going to be vulnerable next week, when she's not eligible to win Head of Household and ensure herself of safety. If Jase were in that position, he'd be stomping around the house, chest puffed out like he was the last action hero.

In that face-off, it's really no contest.

The weekly food competition pits the team of Drew, Marvin, Diane and Natalie against Will, Karen, Nakomis and Cowboy, which would be great for the former team if they were playing four-on-four hoops or something, but they're not. Instead, it's a contest reminiscent of the classic '80s video games Burger Time and Food Fight, without the menacing bipedal pickles.

The idea is for someone from each team to catch fake burgers, cheese, lettuce and onions, plus real condiments, on an oversized fake bun. The team with the most completed burgers wins.

Drew's team makes more, but two of their burgers are disqualified for lacking lettuce, and another for bun-toter Natalie being outside her designated catch zone. Therefore, Team Cowboy gets a full complement of food, and the others are relegated to peanut butter and jelly.

After the requisite houseguests-act-goofy interlude and some time spent on Diane's George Hamilton-like tan -- Will teaches us a new word, "tanorexia" -- we get down to the business of the nominations, which Adria can wield like a lethal weapon.

The evictee this week will also become the first member of the jury, which weighs on Adria's mind. Does she want to put up someone like Marvin, who will weave a web of true lies week after week if he's voted out, or go with someone a little less risky?

Marvin, for his part, pronounces himself unworried, because he knows people are lying to him and he always expects to get the boot. And once again, he's proved right.

Adria nominates him for eviction, along with Will, and Will's allies Nakomis and Karen think he got a raw deal. Adria tries to spin the nominations as a motivational tool to stoke the two guys' competitive fires, but Marvin and Will aren't buying into their roles as warriors of virtue.

As usual, the announcer tries at the end of the episode to make things seem like a cliffhanger. But we all know that Adria's decision carries no sudden impact -- results of the veto game are at least another 48 hours away.
