Tucker being Tucker decided to make this week’s Power of Veto Ceremony a major show. It exposed The Collective and the Pentagon alliances. Basically, it reset everything. Tucker’s POV Ceremony performance sent a shock through the house that was felt all day. Tensions kept simmering until some boiled over. Many houseguests chose to keep it cool as they worked to repair their exposed games. Â
Tucker’s target Brooklyn was one of the houseguests most feeling the heat from yesterday’s events. Late at night, Tucker and her finally found themselves face-to-face. Brooklyn wanted to address how Tucker exposed everything and what he said about her game.
Brooklyn thought it wasn’t fair for him to call her out for being a mastermind without confirming facts with Chelsie and her. Brooklyn defended herself against claims that she took over the Collective and had been trying to evict him.
The intense roommates also slightly argued back and forth on some of Brooklyn’s crucial game statements, like her saying she had a final two deal with Rubina. He didn’t think she was telling the truth because if she was then she wouldn’t have voted Rubina out last week. Tucker also expressed that he has been suspicious of Brooklyn since week two because he observed her behavior.
He told her that she was unable to hide her true feelings, which made him see how much she was against him in Big Brother 26.
Tucker also argued that he saw Brooklyn’s game behavior as fake. He mentioned her ignoring Angela for weeks but now talking to her because she needs her vote. Their conversation continued to escalate and both of them raised their voices.
Most of the conversation revolved around Tucker’s perspective of Brooklyn as a player and her defending herself against his statements. Brooklyn also didn’t like that Tucker painted her as someone who made things in the game personal. He again cited her not talking to Angela as evidence.Â
Brooklyn eventually mentions a day when Tucker felt down and she comforted him. He didn’t like that she said he was “mentally hurting” that day. Brooklyn just wanted to let him know that was a genuine moment. He also told her that he exposed their alliance together, Five Pointz.
Tucker made sure to also take the opportunity to diss his game rival Quinn by explaining why he saved Quinn with the Veto. In his mind, Quinn is a terrible Big Brother player.
Brooklyn and Tucker end their conversation with an awkward hug. He then wishes her well in the AI Arena. They each go to separate corners and spend a few hours retelling their conversation to various houseguests.
