The Biggest Loser Couples
On tonight’s episode of The Biggest Loser, the contestants had to face a tough temptation. One at a time, they would have to go to a vending machine. The machine would drop any random item inside and if it was junk food, they’d have to eat it. However, if it dropped a pack of Extra gum, it could contain a cash prize of a 1 pound pass at the next weigh in.
Roger decides to participate and gets gum, worth $1,000. On his next drop, though, he gets a bag of chips. He chooses again and gets the 1 pound pass. Happy with what he received, he heads back to his blue team. Dan had terrible luck at first, eating snack after snack, racking up 1100 calories, making himself sick. Finally, a little change in his luck. He grabs $9,500 total from the packs of gum. On Jay’s first try, he gets a 1 pound pass and doesn’t have to eat anything.
The black team heads to the vending machines next. Kelly eats over 850 calories, with nothing to show for it, except a little sickness. On his second try, Bernie grabs $2,000. On his next try, he gets $500 and after that, the 1 pound pass. Brittany also won a 1 pound pass, but no cash. Maggie went last and got her 1 pound pass right away, ending her turn. At the end of the temptation, Alison does not tell any of the contestants who won what, leaving them to wonder.
The contestants head back to the hospital for an update on their health, where they first began their journey. It is no surprise that everyone's health has improved since they began their journey ten weeks earlier. After their consultations, they are surprised by season 2 contestant, Dr. Jeff, who knows first hand what it is like to be a survivor of obesity.
Tonight's reward challenge featured one of the most extreme in Biggest Loser history. Contestants had to fly down a zip line and grab as many flags as they could in five minutes. The winner will get to become a fighter pilot for a day. If you're not a fan of heights, then this is not your day! The blue team pulled off another win but first, had a weigh in to deal with before they could enjoy their prize.
As last week's biggest loser, Bernie received a prize and chose gameplay. He found out that he could grant immunity to any player other than himself. When he suggested giving it to Brittany, Kelly felt that it wasn't the smartest move. Bernie, with every intention of winning the weigh in, hoped that this wouldn't even have to be an issue.
At the weigh in, Allison announced that everyone had won a 1 pound pass except Kelly and Dan. She also shocked the players by announcing that this has just become an individual game. If any blue team member falls behind the yellow line, they'll be picked off since the black team has the numbers to control the game. However, that most likely will not be a problem. Before they step on the scale, Bernie decides to hand over the immunity to Brittany, keeping her safe. Here are the numbers from tonight's weigh in:
Brittany: 5 pound loss (3.35%)
Kelly: 6 pound loss (2.83%)
Jay: 7 pound loss (3.62%)
Roger: 9 pound loss (3.73%)
Maggie: 6 pound loss (3.68%)
Dan: 8 pound loss (3.65%)
Bernie: 6 pound loss (3.48%)
Roger reached a milestone tonight, having lost over 100 pounds since starting The Biggest Loser. Dan is right behind him, having lost 99 pounds since he has come to campus. Bernie and Kelly fall behind the yellow line and are up for elimination. Had Bernie not given Brittany the immunity, she would have been below the yellow line in his place but he says that he wouldn't have done anything differently. With only two black team members voting, the blue team basically gets to make the elimination decision. They choose to send Bernie home.

They should have eliminated Roger when they had the chance. Everyone knows that men always win this show. The three girls will be the next ones gone and Roger will win. However I find the black team stupid for voting off Paul last week.

NEXT WEEK ON THE BIGGEST LOSER
ALL CONTESTANTS RETURN TO RANCH IN SURPRISE TWIST
It's down to the six final contestants, but not for long.
In a shocking twist, all fourteen of the players eliminated so far return to the ranch and surprise the six.
At weigh in, the scale reveals how the eliminated contestants have done on their own at home, and the man and woman who
have lost the most weight get to the return to the game!
Texan:
OOH if they return do some of the 6 leave?

What at surprise to find this out, but I'm assuming that it will remain the same and one person will be voted off.
