For weeks now the Big Brother 26 rivalry between Tucker and Quinn has been heating up and on Sunday night’s episode we got to see the ultimate showdown as the two went head to head in the famous wall competition.
The episode picks up right after Cedric’s surprise eviction. And Quinn realizes he really messed up this week since his ally Cedric was sent home on his not-so-secret HOH.
And speaking of Cedric, we get a little recap of what went down just before the eviction. Brooklyn tells Rubina that the house isn’t keeping her, Brooklyn tells T’Kor they have to vote Rubina out or they’re screwed, then we see T’Kor and Kimo decide to make the move. And then right after the eviction, we see Tucker and Rubina know the votes were Chelsie, Brooklyn and Cam. Rubina says they just gave up their game. And those three, Cam, Chelsie and Brooklyn, meet up and realize they might just be off on their own now as they’re feeling betrayed by T’Kor, Kimo and Joseph.
And Quinn is upset with T’Kor and Kimo because they didn’t even give him a hint of the flip.
Everyone is emotional and they know there’s an HOH competition coming up, so they know they have to get it together and prepare for it.
And I hope they did because it’s time! It’s the wall endurance competition. And Tucker puts his sights on Quinn. He lets us know there’s not a chance that he loses this to Quinn. And Quinn lets us know that his one goal is to beat Tucker.
And the wall competition begins! Angela is out just after 3 minutes. That makes her a have-not for the week. Kimo drops at 4:57 and is also a have-not.
Joseph decides to throw it just after 7 minutes. He is also a have-not. Leah is out next just after 8 minutes. Chelsie follows right after.
T’Kor drops just after 14 minutes. Makensy and Brooklyn both drop at the 18 minute mark. That leaves Tucker, Rubina, Cam and Quinn.
After 22 minutes, Rubina is out. So now it’s Tucker vs Cam and Quinn. And then Cam drops at the 28:56 mark.
And it’s poetically down to Tucker and Quinn. And then Tucker offers Quinn a deal but Quinn doesn’t take it.
And he should have taken that deal. Because he drops after 31 minutes, giving Tucker his first Head of Household win.
During a Tanks alliance meeting, they invite Joseph into the HOH room and into their alliance. So Tucker, T’Kor, Kimo, Rubina, Angela and Joseph become “Sixth Avenue.”
Tucker and Quinn have a moment. Tucker tells Quinn that he thinks he’s a great competitor and it’s unfortunate that they ended up on different sides because they could have run the game together.
But Tucker also lets Quinn know that Quinn is no longer his biggest threat and goal. So he tells Quinn he will only go up as a pawn. Quinn doesn’t believe it, but Tucker is actually telling him the truth.
So, who is his target and potential nominees then? He gets so work testing Brooklyn, Chelsie and Cam. So it sounds like that is the route he will be going – one of the two of them plus Quinn.
But the real test was will they sell each other out? Will Brooklyn, Cam or Chelsie spill on the others or are they too close to do that? They didn’t pass Tucker’s test.
So let’s get to the nomination ceremony and find out what the Agent of Chaos has in store. Tucker decided to nominate Quinn, Brooklyn and Cam. And he lets us know that Brooklyn is his target. He calls her the Queen of the Snakes and says he knows that she is running things and getting into people’s heads. And Quinn still thinks he’s the target.
