Money Hungry

Most people who have trouble losing weight suffer from a lack of motivation. Now twelve overweight teams enter a weight loss competition like no other. Their motivation is money, their OWN money.

For their first challenge, the out-of-shape teams compete in a test of strength and endurance by pushing an enormous ball up a 1000 ft. incline.

The mood has changed since the house vote last week. No longer is it one big happy family. In fact, a handful of teams are taking the vote personally and feel betrayed.

With 9 teams left, a new alliance gains majority control of the house vote. The teams in the minority alliance are at a disadvantage when they find out thisweek's swimming challenge has a twist.

The 8 remaining are getting a little too comfortable and relying more on theiralliances instead of weight loss to get themselves further in the game, but not for long because this week there is no house vote!

Several teams are focused onlosing weight, but some weaker teams believe the only way they will be able to win the competition is through scheming and manipulation.

The teams trek out to the world famous Rose Bowl to put their endurance to the test.

The house is fed up with one team's continuous lies and betrayal and it looks like karma might finally come back to bite them.

It comes down to a photo finish and the outcome changes everyone's game plan. Some teams are dependent on old alliances for safety, while others feel that now it's now every man for himself.

Only the strong will survive the epic final challenge and there's sure to be some casualties along the way. The winning team will be safe at a mid-episode elimination where the two losing teams must face off on the scale.
