Silence Broken

Eddie Villareal has decided to serenade the remaining players and spectators with a song he dedicated to his mother. He also told the spectators he got a fake ID on Alverado St. in Los Angeles to say he was 55 and eligible to play in this event.

At this point, his constant singing and dancing is the only thing breaking the silence in the Brasilia room.
