The teams are greeted with a pop challenge—each team must approximate one mile by placing their team’s flag on the marker they believe is exactly one mile from the starting line. The winners of the pop challenge would enjoy one night out and about Hollywood while the losers must stay behind and clean the entire ranch. With varying strategies, the teams place their flags with the Black Team coming the closest and winning the challenge. Given the way of how last week’s life of luxury affected Jennifer and Courtney, the black team is apprehensive, but excited nonetheless.

After the challenge, Courtney sits down with Brett to talk about her one-on-one training for the week. Cara works out her Green team and Ken suffers an injury near his oblique that limits him mostly to walking. Because of this and Kaylee’s big week, Austin feels the pressure to carry the team this week. Black and Blue teams work out in the gym, but Jillian and Rulon hash our the former olympic-medalist’s rogue eating habits. Jillian is concerned that by straying from his diet, he is sabotaging himself and his team. Rulon explains that he views snacks as a reward for having a successful workout, while Jillian coaches Rulon to find things that are good for him, but still highly enjoyable.

When Jillian finally enters the gym with Rulon, her team postpones telling her about the prize that they won during the pop challenge. When the do eventually tell her, Jillian doesn’t believe that a night out is considered a prize and is shocked that her team is so excited about it.

Green, Red and Blue teams get started on cleaning the ranch while Rulon, Hannah and Jay enjoy a night out in Hollywood. They grab dinner at an Asian restaurant and make smart decisions with the foods that they order. Hannah enjoys a nice conversation with a gentleman that took a fancy towards her. She realizes that her choices in the past months have changed her life for the better.

The teams talk about what the weigh in could look like, and the consensus is that the players are most concerned about Courtney. Her numbers have been largely unimpressive the past six weeks or so and she is the only member remaining from the red team. If the red team loses the weigh-in, Courtney will automatically be eliminated.

Bob has a chat with his team about foods that they used to eat before coming to the Biggest Loser and introduces them to Wholly Guacamole, a natural and healthy alternative.

Courtney weighs in needing to lose just 3 pounds to beat the Green team and remain safe. She loses only one pound and is automatically eliminated. Since the Red team has no more members in the game, trainer Brett is also asked to leave the Biggest Loser.
