(Original Air Date 2/2/2010)

The show opens to Miggy having a difficult time after Migdalia was voted off. Then we hear an ambulance coming to pick someone up at the ranch…find out the next morning that it was Miggy with stomach pains…to be continued.

Surprise – Look Who’s Back!

The contestants meet up with Alison outside and the limos pull up for their big surprise. Yellow and Blue teams are back and the contestant find out that one team will be joining them at the ranch.

They head into the gym to weigh-in to find out that they are actually going to do a workout with Bob and Jillian – Welcome to the ranch!

They workout, then it’s time for the scale. The team with the highest percentage of weight loss will be back and the other team will go home. One other crazy thing – the team to come back holds the ONLY vote for this week’s elimination. (and they have immunity for 2 weeks)

Team Yellow = 11.45 %  O’Neil loses 51 lbs!, Sunshine 25 lbs
Team Blue = 9.92 % Cherita loses 24 lbs, Vicky 39 lbs

Team Yellow is back!

The others definitely feel the pressure of the Yellow Team having all of the power at the elimination.

Back in the gym, Bob has word with Melissa while she struggles a bit with the workout.

Jillian pushes Daris to talk about how come he has been so close to the yellow line.

Immunity Challenge:

The teams choose one person to represent each team and they have to hit a tackle dummy 1000 times. The team to come in first wins immunity and the loser will receive a 2 lb penalty at the weigh-in.

It comes down to Sam and Michael and Michael ends up taking it! Go Michael!
The pink team comes in last – bummer!

Miggy comes back from the hospital and the contestants learn that she had her appendics taken out. Ouch! She is determined and does the one thing she is allowed to do, which is walk…a lot!

Miggy meets with the doctor and he is concerned about how much walking she is doing. He informs here that they had to put salt water in her during the surgery – part of the process. Man, that will probably stink on the scale this week!

More working out in the gym…

Jillian confronts Ashley about how little she is working and it comes out that she saw her father die of cancer. Jillian takes her outside and they talk/cry it out.
