After all the teams were split with one from each partnership going home, those who went home realized how difficult it would be since they wouldn’t have the support of the ranch and their partners to overcome temptation.  Jillian and Bob were discouraged to see that almost half of their team had to go home, both expressing frustration over their lack of control over the situation.

The first temptation offered up a limousine ride and $25,000, and Joelle wavers, managing not to give in.  Her hesitation makes everyone on the ranch question her dedication.  Bob was especially nervous for Joelle, wondering why she insisted on sabotaging herself.

Back at home, the contestants were doing their best to find ways to get into shape away from the ranch and the help of Jillian and Bob.  Some even hired their own personal trainers.

This week’s challenge was to pedal half a mile in a kayak to the shore, climb up a mountain, and capture a flag.  The winner of the challenge would win immunity, and the first four up would get a phone call home.  The last one in would get one-pound added to their weigh-in.  Tara was the first to the top, followed closely by Blaine.  Brandy and Helen came in third and fourth.  Even though Tara came in first, she gave her phone call home over to Filipe because she knew that he was longing to talk to his family.

Bob and Jillian pushed their teams during the last-chance workouts.  Joelle’s lack of effort frustrated Bob, and he finally blew up at her when she completely quit working out.  Jillian says that she’s never seen Bob as furious as he was then.  He makes this team do thirty-second sprints until Joelle finally completes one, and her team looks really upset with how her attitude is affecting them.

The teams have their weigh-in, and Jerry and Daniel fall below the yellow-line.  Everyone is upset because it’s obvious that both men need to be there and are dedicated to the program.  In the end, Jerry ended up going home.
