Previously on The Biggest Loser… SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!

Selena was the first to be eliminated from the show in dramatic fashion and was just as dramatically given a second chance.
James “won” at Temptation but it came with a catch. He can take the $30,000 and go home or he can stay at Fat Camp and have Immunity from Elimination. Tough choice as James isn’t well off in the outside world and doesn’t have the backing of parents as some of the other young folks have.

But most recently the Black and Red Teams were set to face off in the final round of the Challenge. Herding sheep! Get seven into the pen before the other team and you win. If nobody has seven by the twenty minute mark the team with the most sheep wins.

Tonight! Black and Red are both off to a good start, grabbing a sheep apiece straight away.

Previously on The Biggest Loser Shane went on The Walk and it resulted in Selena being offered a second chance on the show. She’s yet to actually turn up back at Camp but we’ve been assured she’s coming back.

James made a giant pig of himself at Temptation and has walked away with a shiny security case with a $30,000 bar of gold inside.
Only if he wants to take the money he has to leave Camp. Reject the money and he’ll get Immunity from Elimination.

Tonight James weighs up his options. Can he make it on the outside or will he falter?
But Hayley’s not going to make him decide just yet. James will have until Weigh-In to decide.

To ensure he doesn’t forget about this weighty decision the case with the gold inside will be leaving with him. Handcuffed to his wrist until Weigh-In. Awkward! Going to be fun working out with that dragging him down the whole team.

Luke and Ryan are still immensely pissed. Luke can’t believe James didn’t see the twist coming because nothing has been easy for them since coming to Camp.
Ryan’s worried both by the idea of James succumbing so easily to Temptation and potentially weighing them down come Weigh-In, but also worried James might decide to leave and have the Blue Team be a man down.

The word being used a lot in the Loser Lounge is “Disappointed”. Which is a good time for Shannan to walk in. He’s immediately worried by the case attached to James’ hand and sits down to hear the whole story.
James relays the details of the Temptation and how he won and then says there was a catch. And Shannan nods and says there always is!

Previously on The Biggest Loser… Fat people fighting and it ISN’T over food? What the hell, man? Next you’ll be trying to tell me Commando Steve is hot.

After the Elimination Margie copped a lot of flak over her decision to send Selena home after an unprecedented offer from Hayley to not require anyone be sent home.
This is likely to simmer in the background for quite a while to come, unless she’s the next to be sent packing.

The first Contest of the year saw the old bulls of the Black Team walk away with the win sending Shane on… The Walk!
But it’s not The Walk we’re used to seeing with a new underground route to the new-old military bunker looking box selection area. Thing.

Shane was offered a choice between power over food, power over training or power over something mysterious. Shane chose the mystery box because, well, everyone likes a good mystery!

TONIGHT! We find out what the hell was in the box. Just what power will Shane/Black be given? And will it cause them all to be the new demons of the competition…

Also, training on the beach and a new Temptation kicks off. It feels like they’re packing quite a bit into each episode but gee, it’d be nice if they’d start something and resolve it in one episode, wouldn’t it?

Anyway, after all the teaser footage and replayed footage we finally get going. Hurry up, Shane, get back to Loser Lounge and tell us what was in the box!
