Big Brother season 26 has reached its sixth week of nomination, where T'Kor, the HoH for week 6, nominated Cam, Makensy, and Tucker to go forward for eviction. On Wednesday, the show had a special two-hour episode, where the three nominated houseguests participated in the Veto comp along with Joseph, Angela, and T'Kor.
The veto comp was won by Cam, who eventually removed himself from the block and T'Kor was left to choose the third nominee. She was torn between Angela and Leah because of her alliance with both. However, she chose Angela in the end, as she went forward to rally against Tucker, to get him evicted. So, the final nominees for eviction for week 6 of Big Brother comprise Angela, Tucker, and Makensy.
Angela doubted Tucker's intention and thought he would choose Rubina over her if the time came. Tucker, in a private conversation with Angela, informed her about the growing suspicion of people towards her being the AI Instigator. Tucker assured her that he was loyal to her and that irrespective of his connection with Rubina, he would keep Angela at par.
How did the week 6 elimination unfold in Big Brother season 26?
Episode 20 of Big Brother season 26 aired on Wednesday, August 28, 2024, and unfolded the new nominee for the eviction in week 6. T'Kor, being the HoH, nominated Cam, and Makensy, and chose Tucker as the pawn. Tucker showed her discontent with the fact that he was chosen as the pawn, and nobody from his alliance stepped up for the plunge.
Another highlight from the nomination day was Tucker being selected as the AI Instigator on Big Brother season 26 by American viewers' vote. He had been given the chance to be mischievous and create an avatar of any houseguest including himself to spread misinformation. This power created havoc in the house, affecting alliances, decisions, and loyalties.
It also affected Angela and his alliance, as Angela went ahead to flip sides and sided with nominating Tucker for eviction. Tucker was upset with Angela but still insisted that T'Kor save her and put Leah up for eviction for week 6 of Big Brother.
Six houseguests participated in the veto comp — Joesph, Cam, Makensy, Tucker, Angela, and T'Kor. The competition was "AI Apocalypse" and included punishments and prizes. Whoever scored the lowest got to choose the envelope with either a prize or a punishment. The envelope could be stolen by anyone eliminated after them in the game. Therefore, everyone carefully and intentionally traded the envelope with each other.
Joseph was the first to get eliminated with zero as his score and got lucky to get the "Golden Power of Veto," which he traded with Angela, who was eliminated second. Makensy was out next and settled with his trip to Hawaii. T'Kor was the next to get eliminated, and she chose to swap her punishment "Radiation Eradication" with Angela's veto power.
Tucker and Cam were the final two in the game. Tucker stole the veto from T'Kor and gave away the prize of $5000. In the end, Cam won the comp and traded his punishment with Tucker for the veto power. Cam pulled himself out from the block, putting T'Kor in a dilemma of choosing the third nominee. T'Kor had two options, Leah and Angela.
T'Kor chose Angela in the end as she did not want to ruin her relationship with Quinn, who was Leah's ally. Also, T'Kor was shocked that Angela was trying to campaign against Tucker, making the decision a little easier. The decision made Tucker upset as he tried hard to get T'Kor to nominate Leah.
He also displayed her discontent by expressing that in the future he might go against T'Kor as their alliance seemed to wither in Big Brother season 26.
Big Brother season 26, episode 21 will air this Thursday, August 29, 2024, at 8 pm ET/PT on CBS.
