With Cassandra's elimination after the latest weigh-in and vote, Emily and Kim feel vulnerable for elimination. That fear is lessened with an announcement by Alison: that all the contestants are now singles, meaning that there will be for the first time this season a yellow line. Emily and Kim feel they need to stay above the yellow line at the weigh-in to control their own destiny. With Buddy not cleared medically to compete, the remaining eight contestants compete in a seven round reward challenge, with each round having the contestants all tied to a ring. Each person is trying to reach their buzzer which is located in opposite directions from everyone else's, meaning that they have to pull all the other contestants in their direction. The first to reach their buzzer wins the round and sits out the remaining rounds. Each contestant does win a reward, which is determined on the old "white elephant" gift giving method. One of those rewards is a fashion shopping spree for two with an unnamed fashion icon. During the week's workouts, Bob and Dolvett take aside Emily and Kimmy respectively, to deal with the issues which got them to their initial overweight status. And after the weigh-in and vote, the eliminated contestant embarks on a new life path with the help of a former contestant.
