What happened during the season finale of Big Brother 26?

The episode began with Chelsie Baham, Makensy Manbeck and Cam Sullivan-Brown in the final three. They then took part in the first part of the “Head of Household” competition.

Makensy was eliminated for the first time after about 25 minutes. Just over 10 minutes later, Cam fell out, resulting in Chelsie taking the win in the first part.

Season 16 winner Derrick Levasseur returned for another cheesy segment, kicking off the second part of the HOH competition between Makensy and Cam.

Makensy emerged victorious and secured her place in the third part against Chelsie.

Makensy spoke to the Diary Room about how she doesn't know who she would take to the final two if she wins part three. Chelsie also had a similar conversation in the DR and said she wasn't sure between Makensy and Cam.

The jury roundtable, moderated by Season 24 winner Taylor Hale, aired. Rubina Bernabe joined the jury and revealed how the week before had unfolded.

The evicted houseguests discussed their thoughts on Makensy and their reasoning for victory, emphasizing her ability to win so many competitions. However, Quinn Martin expressed his confusion over Makensy sending Leah Peters out of the house.

Afterwards, everyone talked about Chelsie's game as a strategist. Angela Murray said she could have had better judge management, but T'kor Clottey said Chelsie's style of play carried more weight for her than Makensy's resume as a competitive beast.

The judges talked about Cam and how he is great on social media but has performed very poorly in competitions, which is a blemish on his resume.

Makensy and Chelsie competed in the third part of the final Head of Household competition, which was the final question with both answering each question correctly until Makensy got the correct answer on the final question and Chelsie didn't. Makensy ultimately won the third part 6:5 and secured the last HOH of the season.

Makensy voted to evict Cam, putting Chelsie in the final two.

Cam left the house and spoke to Julie. He said it would be difficult for anyone to sit next to Chelsie considering how well she played the game. Cam also spoke about how much it bothered him to lose so many competitions, and he revealed that he probably would have gotten to the final two with Chelsie.

The judges then went on stage and heard about Makensy's decision to evict Cam before asking Makensy and Chelsie their questions.

During questioning, Chelsie denied lying and deceiving her houseguests and said she knew when to remain silent and when to speak up. Makensy, on the other hand, said the move she made on her own that benefited her game the most was getting Leah out of the house.

Chelsie and Makensy then gave their final two speeches before the jury voted on who they wanted to win.

The preliminary jurors returned. Joseph Rodriguez, a Tampa native, revealed that he almost didn't make it to the season finale because Hurricane Milton affected his family and the people he knows.

Tucker Des Lauriers apologized to Cedric Hodges for being wrong in the in-season altercation that led to him not vetoing himself and remaining on the block. He also gifted flowers to Rubina.

Julie asked Makensy about the status of her relationship with Matt Hardeman. Makensy said she would see where things go.

Matt reached out to Angela about their big fight during the season and said it turned out for the best. He hugged Angela and she said she wasn't sorry for how she felt, but she was happy to see him.

The houseguests watched the segment about Brooklyn Rivera and others eating Angela's sausages. She then apologized to Angela for eating her meat and cheese and said she would have a charcuterie board made for her in Utah.

Tucker revealed to the houseguests that he was responsible for the fake AI messages in the house and apologized for accidentally upsetting Rubina with one of them by showcasing their showmance.

Finally, Julie told the jury and Chelsie and Makensy that President Joe Biden had dropped out of the election and Vice President Kamala Harris had taken his place as the Democratic nominee.

Julie counted the votes and revealed Chelsie as the winner. The first four votes went to Chelsie, ensuring her victory. Julie later revealed that all seven votes were for Chelsie.

The host also named the top three players for America's Favorite Players, including Tucker Des Lauriers, Quinn Martin and Angela Murray. Tucker ultimately won the award.
