'Big Brother' fans furious as Tucker Lauriers does the unthinkable for 'producer plant' Angela Murray
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'Big Brother' Season 26 houseguest Tucker Des Lauriers recently slammed after he decided to save Angela Murray from elimination. Angela has been at the bottom for the last two weeks and the viewers want to get rid of her.
During the latest episode, Tucker competed with Cedric Hodges, Makensy Manbeck, Leah Peters, Angela Murray and Kenny Kelly in a veto competition 'Recharge My Core'. The players had to race through a jungle habitat carrying a power core without touching any of the vines.
Tucker won the challenge with 85% battery in his core while Angela lost the game with just 15% battery. Tucker also earned the veto and removed Angela from the block. Tucker announced, "It's time to get the competitors out. That's my decision and I'm sticking with it." Angela was visibly left shocked by the decision as well as the viewers after Tucker saved her instead of himself.
The CBS show viewers called out Tucker for saving 'producer plant' and said, "Not a Tucker fan AT ALL but at using on Angela. I hope he's evicted tomorrow night." Another person added, "I wonder how much @CBSBigBrother is paying the players to keep their plant, Angela, around. Racism and bullying wouldn't fly with anyone else. It's way too obvious."
Another critic wrote, "Tuck-Tuck is all mad because HIS plan didn’t pan out during Cedric’s HOH. He messed up Cedric’s noms, and now he’s mad that Cedric took his power back. Tucker, you wanted to shake things up. Be careful what you wish for."
Another viewer said, "Tucker just sealed his fate. He's a goner." Another X user tweeted, Everybody: wants Angela out... Kenney: let’s save Angela... Tucker: let’s save Angela... Well done, production." Another critic penned, "As a rational human, Tucker shouldn’t have blown up like that. He was told beforehand by ced the plan was off and to save himself."

Why did Tucker Lauriers save Angela Murray from elimination?
'Big Brother' Season 26 star Tucker Des Lauriers had an ultimate motive behind removing Angela Murray from the eviction block. After winning the veto, Tucker went to Kenney Kelly and HOH Cedric Hodges with a "crazy plan" to use the veto on Angela to "take out one of the strongest players in the house this week."
Tucker's original plan was to eliminate Quinn Martin before he could use his secret power advantage to throw them in trouble. Additionally, Tucker didn't save himself from Veto because he wanted to stay up in order to defeat Quinn in the AI Arena instead of relying on Angela to do it.

Tucker Lauriers made it clear to HOH Cedric Hodges that he would use his Veto power on Angela Murray only to expose Quinn Martin's secret power and eliminate him soon. He wanted Cedric to replace Angela with Quinn on the block.
Surprisingly, Cedric ditched Tucker's advice and replaced Angela with Makensy Manbeck. Tucker was furious over Cedric's move and called him out over his strategy. Tucker told Cedric it was a "stupid a** idea" that he would not forget.
