The atmosphere inside the Pinoy Big Brother house has shifted irrevocably. In a night that will go down in PBB history as one of the most emotionally charged and ruthless eviction episodes, the “Solid Six” alliance has been shattered. The double elimination of Eliza Borromeo and Sofia Pablo on Saturday, January 31, 2026, has left viewers stunned and the remaining housemates scrambling to recalibrate their strategies.
For weeks, the tension between the two dominant factions—the “Solid Six” and the “Striving Feathers”—has been the centerpiece of PBB Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0. But no one predicted that the fallout would be this immediate and this personal. As the announcement was made, the house plunged into a mix of chaotic grief and deafening silence. Eliza Borromeo, the “Determined Daughter of Cavite,” dissolved into tears, unable to mask the heartbreak of leaving her newfound family and her on-screen partner, Miguel Vergara. In stark contrast, Sofia Pablo, the “Strong-Willed Sunshine of Quezon City,” stood stoic, her usual bubbly demeanor replaced by a heavy, almost resentful silence that spoke volumes about the shock of her early exit.
The Ruthless Numbers Game
The mechanics of this eviction were simple but brutal. The entire “Solid Six” alliance—comprising Joaquin Arce, Heath Jornales, Carmelle Collado, Caprice Cayetano, and the two evictees—faced the chopping block after a disastrous performance in the weekly “LigTask” challenges. Their opponents, the “Striving Feathers,” secured immunity by outscoring them significantly, leaving the Solid Six vulnerable to the public vote.
The results were a wake-up call for fans and housemates alike. In the Kapuso bracket, the voting disparity was staggering. Caprice Cayetano dominated with a massive 51.62% of the votes, proving her fanbase is a force to be reckoned with. Heath Jornales followed with a safe 39.92%. This left Sofia Pablo trailing significantly with a meager 8.46%—a shocking plummet for a star with such a high profile outside the house.
On the Kapamilya side, the battle was tighter but equally decisive. Joaquin Arce topped the polls with 45.70%, followed by Carmelle Collado at 33.33%. Eliza Borromeo, despite her strong narrative presence and recent “wildcard” return, received only 20.97% of the save votes, sealing her fate.
Eliza’s Emotional Farewell
For Eliza Borromeo, this eviction was more than just leaving a game; it was a separation. Her storyline has been heavily intertwined with Miguel Vergara, a member of the rival “Striving Feathers” group. Their “forbidden romance”—crossing alliance lines—had captivated viewers.
Just hours before the eviction, the two shared a poignant moment where they exchanged promises symbolized by matching rings. Eliza had confessed to Big Brother that she didn’t want to leave with regrets, fearing she hadn’t expressed enough to Miguel. When her name was called, the dam broke. The image of Eliza weeping, clutching her friends while stealing glances at a devastated Miguel, became the defining image of the night.
Her journey in the house had been a rollercoaster. Having been evicted earlier in the season and fighting her way back through a wildcard round, Eliza felt she had more to prove. To be cut short again, especially with such a low percentage of votes, was a bitter pill to swallow. Her tears represented not just sadness, but the frustration of a second chance slipping away.
Sofia’s Deafening Silence
If Eliza’s reaction was an explosion, Sofia Pablo’s was an implosion. Known for her articulate nature and bright personality, Sofia’s reaction to her name being called was unsettlingly quiet. While she eventually composed herself to deliver a message of gratitude to her supporters—stating she felt like a “Big Winner” because of her fans—the initial moments after the announcement were tense.
Viewers noted the stark contrast between her usual energy and the shell-shocked expression she wore as the percentages were revealed. Getting less than 9% of the vote is a harsh reality check for any celebrity. The “silently resentful” descriptor circulating on social media captures the undercurrent of the night: a disbelief that the “Solid Six” could fall so hard, and that her individual contribution was valued so lowly by the voting public compared to Caprice and Heath.
Sofia had spent the week trying to prove she was more than her “sweet” image, taking on leadership roles in the kitchen and during tasks. To be sent home over housemates who had been less visible in the edits suggests a disconnect between her efforts inside the house and the audience’s perception outside. Her silence seemed to acknowledge this painful reality.
The Crumbling of the “Solid Six”
The eviction of Eliza and Sofia is effectively the death knell for the “Solid Six.” With two key members gone in a single night, the alliance is now a minority. Joaquin, Heath, Carmelle, and Caprice are left vulnerable, outnumbered by the intact “Striving Feathers” group (Ashley, Marco, Princess, Lella, Krystal, and Miguel).
The power dynamic has shifted completely. The “Striving Feathers,” once the underdogs who struggled in physical tasks, have proven that their social game and fan support are superior. They managed to not only win the immunity challenges (scoring 5,728 points vs. Solid Six’s 4,090) but also kept their entire roster safe.
The remaining Solid Six members must now navigate a house where they have no leverage. Will they attempt to fracture the Striving Feathers? Or will we see the remaining members start to cannibalize each other to survive? The “ruthless” nature of this eviction suggests that loyalty might soon become a liability.
A House Divided No More?
With the numbers so heavily skewed, the “Civil War” era of PBB Collab 2.0 might be coming to an end, replaced by a new phase of individual survival. The “Striving Feathers” cannot stay united forever; eventually, they will have to turn on each other. However, for the next few weeks, the remaining Solid Six members will likely be the primary targets.
Miguel Vergara’s position is particularly interesting. With Eliza gone, his main tie to the other side is severed. Will he fully reintegrate with the Striving Feathers, or will his grief over Eliza’s exit alienate him from his groupmates who celebrated the result?
Fan Reactions and Social Media Firestorm
Social media platforms X (formerly Twitter) and Facebook exploded the moment the names were read. The hashtag #PBBCollab6thEviction trended immediately, with fans debating the fairness of the result.
Supporters of Eliza expressed outrage, claiming the “unlimited voting” system skewed results in favor of housemates with wealthy backers. Meanwhile, Sofia’s fans were left analyzing where it went wrong, with many blaming the “Solid Six” alliance for dragging down her popularity. The consensus among neutral viewers, however, is that this was a victory for the “Striving Feathers” fandoms, who mobilized effectively to ensure the opposing alliance was decimated.
The phrase “Ruthless Decision” has been thrown around, referring not just to the public vote, but to the game mechanics that put an entire alliance up for eviction. It was a sink-or-swim moment, and the Solid Six sank.
What Lies Ahead
As the dust settles, the housemates are left with only four weeks until the Big Night. The field has narrowed to 10. The intensity is only going to ramp up. With the “Solid Six” broken, new alliances will inevitably form. The question is no longer about which group will win, but which individual has the grit to outlast the drama.
Eliza and Sofia may be out, but their exit has set the stage for a cutthroat finale. The tears have been shed, the silence has fallen, and the real game has arguably just begun.
