As you know, this episode is part two from last weeks episode and that is where the show started.  Both players were squatted and stood there balancing a torch on their head.  The pesron that would be first to drop the torch would go home right then and there.  Both players told America that they were in pain and after nine minutes Darrell dropped  the torch and he was the one going home.  Darrell bid farewell to the other players and he was gone.

It was soon the next day and there was a challenge and it was revealed that the split wasabout to happen and the Blue verses Black was about to begin.  The winner of the challenge would choose the sides for the teams and also could pick anyone for immunity.  Allison said that they had to raise their hand to play in the challenge.  Allison counted to three and the players that raised their hand would participate in the challenge.  The players that did raise their hand to participate were Mike and Andrea.  These were the two players that would compete in the classic game of memory.  If they could pick a card and reveal a food behind it and then match that food with the same food behind another card. they would beable to skip a eating turn and force the opponent to eat another round of food.  If they made a match, the other player had to eat the food behind the cards.  Every time they DID NOT get a match they had to eat a 100 calorie cookie.When they were able to match two pairs of golden tickets they would win the challenge.   Many cards were revealed and they had to eat many cookies until Michael found a familiar food group but could not pair it up.  Then Andrea was able to make a match and Michael had to eat another cookie.  Andrea then made anothermatch and Michael had to eat anothercookie while Andrea went on to pick another card.  Andrea now had 3 golden tickets and Michael was up to 1,760 calories.  Michael was getting sick from eating souchjunk food Michael was up to 2,310 calories and it was again his turn to look for a pair of tickets.  He found one ticket and then another to win the game.1,320 calories were eaten by Andrea and she lost all the power to Michael.  Allison then told Michael the way he would pick the teams and the trainers.  Each team would have 6 players and the person that would have immunity would not be on the a team.  After the weigh in the person with the immunity would then be on the team that lost the weigh in.  Michael told America that he was going to choose sides based on how it would benefit himself.  There was then a commercial break.  

 Michael then chose the players and the trainers as following and he then said that he was taking care of himself for the first time in his life.

Black Team was as follows:  Sam, Cheryl, Andrea, Stephanie, Sherry, Ashley 

Blue Team was as follows:  Koli, Daris, Lance, Miggy, Sunshine, Michael,

The kicker of it all was that Michael chose to be on the Blue Team which he stacked to be the winning team.  What Michael did was that he set himself up to be on the winning team and then gave away the immunity to O.Neal.  Everyone was not happy because not only did he stack the teams he split up all of the couple like Mom and son and cousin and cousin.  Everyone was now quite ticked with Michael.

Jillian was then seen walking into the gym and said “what the Hell happened?”  Jillian said it was so unfair and the curses were bleeped out of her mouth.  Jillian yelled that he did not even give them a chance.  Michael said to Jillian that he was using the rules and Bob told him that he had to start taking care of himself.  Bob said nothing and shook his head while Jillian said it made her freak out because of her flashbacks of junior high school.  Then everyone got on a tread mill and it was agreed that they had to work out 3x harder to just break even with the stacked teams. 

The workout in the gym began and Bob was barking out orders and told his stacked team that they did not have it won and they still had to work really hard.  Back in the ranch common area later on the other players were very angry with Michael and all of the other players voiced their disgust with Michael.  The conversations turned pretty ugly and right before a commercial Michael told Miggy that if she were to fall below the line he would send her home because she was no use to him.  it was a very rude and cold comment.

Jillian then came out and did a commercial for Larabar and touted all the benefits of the bar.  Next we were down town in the city for their first challenge as the Blue and Black Teams.   They were in front of a tall building and there were banners hanging on the outside of the building.  They were told they would have to do it from the roof where ther was a rope and the banners were on a pulley system.  Michael said they had a stacked team and Koli said they would not give up and try to work as a team.  The Black Team was working well as a unit and The Blue Team was losing their early lead.  The Blue Team then just went into overdrive and won the challenge.  Michael then told America that it felt good to win and his team was starting to bond already.    Lance received a mini photo album and broke into tears.  Miggy cried like a baby when her fiance lost 30 pounds,   Michael had a photograph and he too broke into tears.  Daris got a letter from a friend while O’Neal read a letter from his son.   Michael then told America it will only make his team stronger.

back at the ranch we saw Dr. H. greeting the players and update them on their health.  Ashley recovered 8 years of her life and she was improving greatly in only 7 weeks.  Sam received a great report also and even more so because he not only lost weight, but also quit smoking.

Bob was screaming “last chance workout” and the sweat was pouring and the screams were loud.  Bob told America that he was afraid his team was too overconfident and the may take a big fall at the weigh in.   

 Michael told America that the Black Team was driven and had a mission that made them very competitive. and next we saw the players all walking into the gym for the weigh in.  The results were as follows:

O’Neal:  325 / 316  lost 9  pounds. 2.77  %    He had immunity and his weight did not count and it was impressive that he did not play the game.

Blue Team:
Michael:  432 / 417  lost 15  pounds. 
Sunshine: 239 / 232  lost 7 pounds.
Lance: 305 / 300  lost 5 pounds.
Miggy: 199 / 195 lost 4  pounds.
Daris: 274 / 267  lost 7  pounds. 
Koli: 326 / 316   lost 10  pounds.
Blue Team Totals were 48 pounds, which was 2.70%
 

The Black Team:
Andrea: 255 / 250  lost 5 pounds.
Cheryl: 191 / 187  lost 4  pounds.
Sherry: 177 / 171 lost 6  pounds.
Sam: 298 / 290  lost 8  pounds. 
Stephanie: 221 / 213  lost 8 pounds.
Ashley:  311 / 301   lost 10  pounds. 
Black Team Totals were 41 pounds, which was 2.82%

It was an amazing weigh in because The Black Team was able to beat The Stacked Blue Team.  The darl cloud of being the weak team was cast aside and The Black Team won.  The irony of it was that Michael who created the hard feelings of the episode had the highest % of weight loss and so he could not be sent home.  At the discussion The Blue Team had to decide who was to be sent home and it was decided that they had to choose what was best for the team.  The vote went as follows:

Lance: Voted for Miggy
Daris: Voted for Miggy
Miggy: Voted for Lance
Michael: Voted for Lance
Sunshine: Voted for Miggy
Koli: Voted for Miggy

The person voted off the ranch on March 2 2010 was Miggy.  Miggy was sent home.

The Biggest loser Transformation Moment began with Miggy telling America that she was able to heal herself and improve herself.  She went from 240 to 179 pounds.  Miggy told America that she used to always be stressed out and now she meditates and has learned how to relax.  She said the best thing that happened to her was that she changed her energy from negative to positive.

The Biggest Loser Transformation Moment continued with Darrell who was sent home at the start of the show.  He went from 413 to 293 for a total of 123 pounds lost.  He now works out with his wife and he really looked much healthier now and his wife looked very happy.  He said he owed The Biggest Loser his life.
