He was heard joking about his fellow housemate Gino Roque IV: "Siguro masarap itong katabi sa pagtulog."

He then suggested to another housemate that they switch beds and added: "Pagsasamantalahan ko lang ito," pointing to Roque.

This prompted the female housemates to call him out for his highly inappropriate joke. Dangalan apologized but was later on called into the confession room by Big Brother.

Big Brother reminded Dangalan that he had already been warned about the complaints over his unusual habit of sniffing hair that made the female housemates feel uncomfortable.

"Ang pananamantala sa kapwa, sa kahit anong konteksto ay hindi dapat ginagawang biro," Big Brother told him.

"At kailanman ay hindi ko maaring palagpasin ang mga ganitong klaseng biro sa loob ng aking bahay."

Dangalan broke down in tears when he found that he was being forced to leave the house. He was seen repeatedly apologizing to Roque and the female housemates afterwards.
