This week the contestants compete for a 2 pound pass to give to their partner at home and for a chef to go to their partner’s house and teach them how to cook healthy meals. Dan wins the competition.
The winner of the challenge will gain immunity and ensure their partners return to the ranch. It’s a football challenge as it is Super Bowl week and Kurt Warner stops by the ranch to meet the contestants. Helen wins the challenge.
Blaine’s wife is in labor so he is able to go home and be with her for the birth. I’m really glad. I was hoping he’d get to be there. They had a baby boy.
At the weigh-in, the partners from home return to the ranch. Below the yellow line are Ron and Mike and Dan and Dave.
Ron pleads to the other contestants to let his son stay. He’s only 18 and needs this. Dan is the biggest contestant on the show and is only 19. I’m crying my eyes out at this point. I don’t want either team to go. I like Dan and I like Ron and Mike also. Dave gets on my nerves. He doesn’t seem to really want this. Dave reassures everyone that losing weight and getting healthy can be done at home.
At the elimination, Tara freaks out on Dave telling him he needs to be on the ranch. It’s tied 4 votes each and the last team votes for Dave and Dan.
Dan has lost 101 pounds since he was on the show. Dave’s only lost 46. He isn’t really showing America that it can be done at home.
