The remaining ten contestants learn that for the next week they will no longer be in two teams, but rather five teams of two, each pair who will weigh-in together. Two teams will fall below the yellow line, with one team being voted off the ranch. One of those ten will make the decision as to the pairings based on a temptation challenge where on a set menu, each contestant will secretly order an appetizer, a main course and a dessert apiece, with the person consuming the most calories winning the challenge. For the food to count toward the calorie count, the entire plate of food must be consumed. When the appetizers arrive, it becomes obvious who is playing the game. What may be more troubling is the one person not playing the game that decides to eat a decadent dessert just for the want of it. The winner of the challenge has an obvious game plan, which ends up creating two factions on the ranch. Because sugar plays such a big part in obesity, the contestants compete in a reward challenge to build a sugar cube tower five feet tall, transporting the sugar cubes from a pile to the construction site one cube at a time. The result of the temptation challenge brings out many emotions both amongst the contestants and the trainers. Bob and Jillian feel they have to address issues specifically with Aaron, Ada and Lisa. The trainers also focus much of the training regimen based on the pairings. The weigh-in continues to bring out those emotions, with Bob and Jillian contributing to the free for all argument. The vote is equally as emotional, especially between one of the contestants voted off and one of the people who voted for that team. In a post episode live segment, Bob visits the eliminated contestants at one of their homes to see how they are doing months after that emotional elimination. Written by Huggo See less
