For those wondering whether or not Anthony "The Mooch" Scaramucci quit
Celebrity Big Brother and his exit is some sort of vast conspiracy, we now have a little more clarity.

In a new interview with
Entertainment Tonight , The Mooch confirmed that he did, in fact, have an agreement with CBS that he would only be in the house a certain amount of days. Given that he was scheduled to appear in Switzerland shortly after his eviction, clearly this was something that had been carefully planned out. While he didn't say this, our feeling is that he probably wanted to come on, show a different side of himself, and then go off and continue to tackle other parts of his life. For the network, this was a chance to get them some political headlines and get some buzz going like they had with Omarosa last season. (Coincidentally, Omarosa was instrumental in convincing Mooch to do it, and he claims that he had a really good time being a part of the show.)
The one thing that Mooch did not know going into the episode was precisely how the producers were going to orchestrate this exit, and they came up with this special Veto competition and twist to include in the game.
Mooch does also specifically deny being a quitter, and says that this is what was hard about the past few days — he was frustrated that people were calling him that online and he couldn't say anything. We do believe him, mostly because of the fact that if Mooch had wanted to quit, CBS would've probably roasted him for it. They have no incentive to make anyone look good heading out the door since they are basically saying that they do not want to be a part of their show anymore. Why would they bend over backwards for a guy like The Mooch when he has done nothing to serve it by quitting the show?
In the end, Mooch is happy that he met all of these people, and he thinks that some of the more direct players are the ones who will go far.
