Tonight on The Biggest Loser… let the games begin!

The eliminated contestants are competing for a chance to come back into the game and there’ll be a variety of challenges involved in doing so.
Who will win?

Read on to find out… or take a stab in the dark and assume it will be Cosi and someone else, because you’ll probably be right!

Next morning after every has returned we see Sheridan waking up in Alison and Kirsten’s room. Would nobody else have Sheridan, or did Alison and Kirsten not want any of the others? Hmm.

Sheridan says she’s feeling joyous about being back in!
She asks Alison and Kirsten if they have any idea how the person will be selected and they say no, but they hope it’s not one of the big strong boys!

Michelle’s talking up Bryce’s chances. He says he wouldn’t normally talk himself up, but he’s feeling a million bucks.

Nicola’s not sure about getting back into the game. She’s not sure she’s ready.
Cosi says the weirdest part of leaving was he was only gone for a day. He’d prepared himself to go home and then maybe he’s not? But he says there was a chance if he didn’t come back that he might live to regret it.

Shannan and Michelle arrive, not knowing everyone’s back.
Shannan says there’s a mass of bodies, but nowhere near the mass they used to be!

Michelle’s eyes go right to her Red Team, she says.
Cosi says her face was priceless because it was like that was all their work, altogether at once.

Michelle says she felt so good seeing how far they’ve all come.
Shannan thinks back to how Sean came into the house – insulin dependent diabetic who was fat and unhappy. Sean tells him about not being on his diabetes meds anymore and Michelle says it screams volumes about the good work they’ve been doing.

Shannan thinks Bryce is a big threat, he’s looking fit and refreshed. Bryce says any good words Shannan has for him hold a lot of weight.
Both trainers are impressed by Debbie’s loss.
Michelle says Nicola is gorgeous and will break some hearts.

Shannan says something about people being “less than him”? In weight? Not sure.

Shannan feels sorry for the existing Final Four but he thinks this will spur them on to greater heights. Let’s hope so!

Today is Temptation day. And nobody is sure what will happen, since there’s a bunch of ex-contestants in the House again.

Only the Final Four will be competing, Ajay says.
Nicola says when Ajay said that she thought that was a bit of a waste of time for the eliminated contestants!

There’s 4 dishes, ranging from 100 calories to 1000 calories. Whoever eats the least amount of calories in each round will be knocked out. It will continue until there’s only one person remaining.
Whoever is left standing, wins Temptation.
Sam says Alison eats like a bird, Kirsten is very competitive and then Garry, who has proven that he has no limits when it comes to Temptation.

The power to choose who eats what is put in the hands of the eliminated contestants. Which is a shitstorm waiting to happen, really.

If nobody partakes of the Temptation then the eliminated contestants will choose who wins.

The winner receives… a 1kg advantage at the next weigh in. Pfft. I hate weight advantages/penalties.

Everyone heads into the secret room.
100 calories for some marshmallows, 250 calories for a caramel slice, 500 calorie sausage roll… and a 1000 calorie deep fried bars bar. Mmmmm.

The eliminateds realise they need to think strategically. So they can either give it to someone who is strong anyway, or give it to someone who is weak to protect them.
Cosi suggests giving it to Garry, since 1kg percentage wise isn’t a lot. Bryce asks if it’s personal and Cosi says no, he’s thinking about it from a competing against him point of view.
Rachel’s coming at it from a “Don’t like him” point of view. In an aside she says that she’d like to see him eat the food because it would crack him up, but she doesn’t want him to have an advantage.

Sheridan puts her hand up for Alison to win. Nobody puts hand up for Kirsten. Pretty much everyone puts it up for Sam, including Cosi. So they decide to try and help Sam win.

Garry says it’ll either be strategic or popularity and he’s not sure where he sits in the scheme of things. High on strategic, low on popularity. Solved that puzzle pretty quickly for you, Garry!

Kirsten has the marshmallows, 100 calories worth. So unless nobody else eats, she’ll be out.
She does decide to eat them anyway, just in case someone else doesn’t eat.

Now we find out how smart the eliminateds are. Will they have given the second amount to Sam?
Nope, they gave it to Alison. Caramel slice, 250 calories. “Ohhh, yum!” She says it looked spectacular. She hoes in. She says the first two bites were really good, but after that it became really bad.
She used to have a carton of ice coffee and a croissant from the bakery, which is a lot different to what she has now, she says.
She says to the rest of the Four that this is the most sugar she’s had since coming into the House.
Back in asideland she says the fact that she’s eating something she doesn’t even like anymore shows how desperate she is to stay in the House.

Next lowest calorie dish goes to Sam!
“Did you hear me say I smelt that?” Sausage roll! “My eyes just lit up. It was like Christmas for me. Except I only got one present. And it was a sausage roll.”
“The choice to play is yours.” “Heck yeah!” “Go for it.” “Awesome!”

Garry’s left with the deep fried mars bar. 1000 calories. Will he finally back away?
Sheridan thinks he’s going to go for it.
Garry seems to agonise over the decision for a while. But then, of course, he picks it up. And then stares at it for a bit. Come on dude, step away. Do it.

WOW! He said no! I’m astounded.

Garry says he felt a bit of a calm come over him. He says he doesn’t feel like he needs the 1kg advantage this week.

Second round they’re giving the sausage roll to Sam again. He’ll be happy!
Lowest calories goes to Alison. This time the lowest is the caramel slice. Which would make two for poor Alison.
She turns it down.
Then changes her mind. Then says she doesn’t know. Then says she will.

She’s hoping someone else won’t eat.

And Sam has the sausage roll again! He looks shocked and then thanks the lord for his bounty. Heh.
Sean says Sam was openly thanking them.
Sam scoffs it right down, of course.

Leaving Kirsten with the deep fried mars bar.
She’s trying to work out if it’s worth it. She thinks maybe they’re trying to get Alison through to the final round. So if she knocks her out, they might consider giving the advantage to Kirsten instead of Sam.

So she decides to eat it.
She takes a big bite and does not seem to be enjoying it in the slightest.
Cosi says he was shocked to see her take part, but also pleased because she’s chewing down a thousand calories!
Sam’s thinking they’re setting Kirsten up for the win by giving her the Mars bar. But he’s not sure what’s going through their heads.

Alison gets punted as Kirsten finishes her meal, too.

The platters come out one more time.
Kirsten has the sausage roll and Sam has the deep fried mars bar.

If Sam eats, he gets the 1kg advantage. If he doesn’t and Kirsten eats her sausage roll, she wins it.
Sheridan says they decided to put the power in Sam’s hands, to give him the opportunity to win, if he wanted it.

But Kirsten has to go first.
Kirsten decides to do Sam a deal. Because she’s not willing to eat the sausage roll.
If neither of them eat then the eliminated contestants get to choose. So she says to Sam, she won’t eat if he won’t and they’ll leave it to the eliminated twelve.

Kirsten says no. Will Sam follow through?

Sam’s thinking he’s been served the winning hand so he figures if it goes back to the eliminated contestants they’ll just pick him again anyway. So he could save himself 1000 calories by not eating.
Sam passes on eating.
Alison says it’s a smart decision. They’re all still ex-Blues working together!

Michelle wants to give it to Sam because he’s a good kid and Kirsten’s the biggest loser so far.
Cosi says it’s hard because they’re both big threats. In an aside he thinks they’ve ballsed it up because in the last round neither of them consumed anything!

The eliminated twelve have decided who’ll get the 1kg advantage.
So who is it, Ajay? Mr White Glow Under The Platter?

No! It’s Sam. Cool. Go Sam!
Sam says it doesn’t mean he can take his foot off the pedal, it just gives him a glimmer of hope.

Garry thinks the eliminated contestants have made a stupid decision. He thinks it’s been based on personality. Boo hoo.

Tomorrow night someone gets to nominate someone to put more weight on their bar as the eliminated contestants have to hold them on their shoulders.
And it seems like a lot of people are going to target Cosi. Which I’m sure will please a lot of people who think Cosi is the devil, while conveniently ignoring how spiteful that will be…
Tune in tomorrow night to find out.
