Spoiler about the show that is airing right now...
So I guess all is not forgiven since last week? The two black team members who defected still appear to be training with Bob. If I were on the blue team, I wouldn't be a fan of that, I don't think.
The show is still not over, so I'm not sure if something else will happen. We didn't even see the trainers for over an hour since the people were sent home for a challenge, and even then they only showed a little time in the gym.
Now I guess I have to watch the weighing in of 10 people and elimination take 40 minutes unless there is some other twist. It will probably be 25 minutes of commercials and 15 minutes of show, the Biggest Loser is stupid like that.

How are the Tongans doing? I met Sione on a flight last year. He was very nice. And very BIG.
I believe in the usefulness of useless information.

They're doing well, they've lost a LOT of weight. I can't remember now how much, as soon as I see the weigh in it's out of my mind. I can't remember if they've both already lost 100 pounds? I'm pretty sure Sione has, he's a freakin' powerhouse. I think he's one of the ones to beat...which means he'll probably become a target, but I think he could lose the weight at home now even if he got booted.
Although if you read what I had in the spoiler - that was them - so sometimes they're like pissy little girls.

My faves from pretty much the start were Tara and Sione. But he ends up having to support his hot headed drama queen cousin and it hurts him in the long run (the last two weeks since he left Jillian in solidarity with Filipe he has done poorly, relative to this show).
I cringed last night when his hamstring cramped up while doing the half marathon. Which I was going to ask you, Sunny. Did Kristin and Ron participate? I doubt Ron since he has trouble walking up the steps to the stage, but I don't recall seeing Kristin doing any running, just her mom.
Have a super sparkly day!

I think Sione hit 99 pounds last night.
Push it real good!

Hmmm that's a good question about Kristin and Ron. I was half watching while I was in chat. I think that they probably did not, I don't remember either of them running. I just don't remember a specific moment where they said they would or wouldn't participate. I still have it saved, I can check that later.
Tara is my favorite, although I can't believe her own teammate ate a cookie to do her in. In my mind, the only people who should have eaten cookies were Tara or Sione, because they're the only ones who really stood a chance to win that. For Helen to do it was just downright dirty. Or she just wanted a cookie.

The worst part of the Helen thing was she kept giggling and grinning like a loon from the time she had to fess up until they were dismissed. Sure, stab somebody in the back, then smile like an idiot about it.
And of course the only reason she did it was because she wanted a cookie. She had no realistic chance of winning. I do wish they would have given everybody's times, though.

She should have put the time on someone on the blue team, at least!!

Ron only did 4 miles and said he knew that he wasn't going to finish. Kristin did run and finish.

They did give everyone's time as they were finishing up their races.
