The Biggest Loser Couples Season 9: Racing for Immunity

http://www.aceshowbiz.com/images/news/00025014.jpg
The “Biggest Loser” couples met Alison in the gym. Contestants watched as Alison pressed a red button and an alarm that sounded like a tornado siren blared

throughout the ranch. Once the alarm stopped, a wall opened to reveal a scale. Alison told the contestants the first one of them to lose 2 percent of their body

weight would win immunity. She handed each of them a card with the amount of weight they needed to lose. They were allowed to weigh in whenever they wanted, but they would only get one chance, and they’d have to be the first to lose their body weight, because as soon as someone weighed in and lost his or her body weight, they’d win immunity and the challenge would be over for everyone. All the contestants had to do was go to the gym and press the red button to let their competitors know they were ready to weigh-in.Soon after Alison left the gym, Jillian and Bob entered. The couples explained the challenge, and then training with Bob and Jillian began. As the others worked out, Jillian felt it was time to workout with Sunshine. While the two worked out, Jillian told Sunshine if she stayed focused, she could win this season’s “Biggest Loser”.
Dr. H joined the “Biggest Loser” couples in he living room to share tips on exercise and healthy eating. Moments after Dr. H’s brief advice, the couples discussed the weigh-in challenge. Some wondered when would be the best time to weigh in, and others tried to guess who’d weigh in first.The alarm sounded, and everyone made his or her way to the gym to see who pushed the button so early. Once the contestants discovered it was Vicky, Vicky stepped on the scale to see if she lost the 6 pounds she needed to win. Unfortunately, she only lost 3 pounds, so immunity was still up for grabs.The “Biggest Loser” couples gathered at the pool for another challenge. The winner of this challenge would get a trip for two to the “Biggest Loser” resort, and the contestant who came in last, would have a 1-pound disadvantage at the weigh-in.
Alison instructed the contestants to swim toward the middle of the pool. Once there, they could gather a maximum of two one-pound weights, which they had to swim back with and place in their bin. The first contestant to collect 100 weights would win the challenge, and as soon as the contestants collected all their weights, they’d be free to help the other contestants.
From the beginning of the challenge, Sunshine and Sam stayed neck and neck, but when Sunshine noticed that her dad was in last place, she picked up her pace so she could finish and help her dad. Because Sunshine increased her speed, she won the challenge, but she didn’t take a break from swimming. Instead, she headed back to the center of the pool to assist her dad. Everyone but Mike, Melissa and O’Neal had finished the challenge. At this point, Melissa’s past “game play” came back to bite her in the butt, because the couples who finished the challenge chose to help O’Neal and Mike complete the challenge. Not a single contestant offered to help Melissa, and this caused Melissa to finish last and have to deal with the 1-pound penalty at the weigh-in.
Late Night Workout
While everyone else slept, Sam and Koli took advantage of the empty gym. They were determined to win the Biggest Loser’s first ever weigh-in challenge, and they didn’t want Melissa to win immunity.
As soon as Sam and Koli completed their late night workout and left the gym, Melissa made her way into the gym for her own late night workout session. With everyone against her, she knew she needed to win the weigh-in challenge, and this was her opportunity to burn some extra calories.
The next morning Sam pushed the red button. Soon after the others were in the gym, Sam weighed in and surprised everyone when the scale revealed the he’d lost 10 pounds (3.82 percent). Not only did Sam win immunity, but he lost more than the 6 pounds he needed to lose.
Later, Bob and Jillian visited the “Biggest Loser” couples. The couples filled the trainers in on Sam winning the weigh-in challenge. Then the contestants told Bob and Jillian about the pool challenge. Bob asked Melissa how she finished last, and she told Bob and Jillian that no one offered to help her. Although Bob and Jillian felt O’Neal and Mike were more of a threat than Melissa was, they understood why no one came to her aide.itors know they were ready to weigh-in.
