## Player History

### **Big Brother Canada 5:**

Tay had a rocky beginning right from the start, when Week 1 HOH Sensei Wu nominated him for eviction against Nan. Wu told Tay that the only reason he was nominated was the fact Tay was keeping to himself and not being very social. Tay knew he had to win that first POV to keep himself from being the first boot of the season, the Veto Comp came down to the wire between him and Wu, but Wu barely beat him taking the first Veto with him. Tay tried to cut a deal with Wu, but Wu did not want to rock the boat and decided to keep him and Nan on the block. Tay knew it was go time and stepped up his social game immediately and campaigned hard and consistently threw Nan under the bus all in hopes to keep himself inside the house. All of Tay's socializing paid off in the end when the house spared him in a 6-4 vote. Tay was shcoked he actually pulled it off and knew he had to try and lay low the next week so he wouldn't be easy pickings. Unfortunately he became an easy nominee for Week 2 HOH Misty Day when she decided to nominate him once more with Flacca. Tay was frustrated at being nominated back to back but was feeling he was more of a pawn after Flacca blew up at Misty during the nomination ceremony, but he did not want to take any chances and knew he had to fight for the POV again. This time around he still wasn't successful in winning the Veto and lost it to Ozone. Tay felt his goose was cooked until to the surprise of everyone at the Veto Meeting when Ozone chose to save Tay off the block, Tay didn't believe it and gave his thanks to Ozone for saving him. After Tay was taken off the block he went onto to lay low for awhile and worked solely on his social game for the next few weeks trying to climb up from the bottom of the social ladder. Tay vastly improved his spot in the house over those weeks going onto form an alliance called "Kiwikazes" with Coach Sue, Pizza and Sensei Wu. For what he couldn't do in comps he made up for in working his relationships in the house. Moving into Week 5 the shocking Reversal Spell was unleashed into the house and left Tay feeling scattered. After him and The Kiwikazessuccessfully evaded getting nominated and instead got Misty and Flacca onto the block. Tay and his group set their sights on finally taking out Flacca, but of course Flacca came through with another Veto win and saved herself off the block resulting in the house naming Sue as the replacement nominee. Right after Sue was put on the block it was announced that whoever won HOH would be choosing who was going to be evicted Tay knew he had to go out and win it for the Kiwikazes and keep Sue safe, Luckily for him Tay finally snatched his first comp win of the season and became the Week 5 HOH. Tay was ecstatic that he had all the power this week and keep Sue in the clear, but he was not sure of who to evict between Ozone and Misty as their was good reasons to kick them both out, butfinally Tay settled his mind and decided to evict Ozone out of the house due to idea that this may be the only time Ozone could be this vulnerable whereas Misty will always be a target over him. Tay felt a bit guilty sending Ozone home considering Ozone saved him with the Veto in Week 2, but he knew he had to do it for strategy reasons. A few weeks went by with Tay being able to take a backseat but it all changed when Misty became the Week 8 HOH and a mysterious magic hat was placed in the house with a magic wand. Before nominations Tay had a strong feeling Misty was going to nominate him and he wanted to try anything that could possibly save him, so Tay went to the magic hat and decided to wave to wand over the hat and had secretly activated the final twist of the season in hopes it could end up saving him. When it came time for Misty to make her nominations she nominated Tay and his closest ally Sue. Tay and the rest of the Kwikazes weren't surprised in the slightest since Misty and Sue have been trying to get each other out for Weeks. Tay knew he had to gun for the POV since he wouldn't have Pizza and Wu's votes to stay over Sue, sadly the Veto did not work out for Tay and instead Wu scored the win and of course Wu didn't use the Veto keeping noms the same. Tay knew that it was going to be his time unless him waving the wand was going to save him as it was obvious the only person voting for him to stay over Sue was going to be Flacca, so he knew there was no point in campaigning since votes were already cemented, so he had just had to hope the magic hat would bring something to the table. When eviction night came around the vote came back 2-1 and Tay was told he had been evicted, but before Tay was told to leave the house the final twist was officially put into play where it was revealed that since the magic wand was waved a Reset Spell was put over the house resulting that everything that happened this week has been entirely reset all the way back to the Week 8 HOH comp and that Tay's eviction has been nullified and he would still be inside the house. Tay and the rest of the house were completely turned upside down and now had to immediately compete for HOH, Tay knew that he just got blessed a second chance and could not screw it up and fought hard for the HOH only to come in second place to Misty re-winning the competition. Tay was extremely frustrated in himself and was ready for the week to repeat itself, but to everyone's surprise Misty nominated Sue again but instead of Tay she named Wu as her other nominee. Tay was shocked it wasn't him and just hoped that the nominations would stay the same. Tay tried to secure safety for himself in the Veto competition, but history repeated itself again when Wu re-won the POV and of course saved himself which led to Misty throwing Tay back on the block. Tay felt completely done and disappointed after messing up both chances to win himself safety only to be put back up against Sue and was anticipating the same outcome as last week. Sadly eviction night came back around and there was nothing saving him this time and Tay was officially evicted by another 2-1 vote, placing 6th and becoming the 6th member of the jury. On *Cucu's Couch* Tay explained that even though his game ended he was extremely proud of how well he turned his game around from Week 1 to now. Tay would return on finale night as a member of the jury where he cast his vote for Sue to win *Big Brother Canada 5.*
