This week the contestants must face their biggest temptation of all - food. Host Bob Harper meets them at a food court where they must rely on their newfound nutrition knowledge to win a trivia challenge about unhealthy food. The winning team gets to choose a player from the opposing team to sit out at the weigh in. Then the contestants meet Dr. Huizenga at a medical research facility for a sobering look at how the food choices people make can mean the difference between life and death. ACCLAIMED CHEF LORENA GARCIA GUEST STARS - Host Bob Harper greets contestants with the news that their challenge this week involves pulling food trucks. The team that wins gets a crash course in healthy cooking and eating from popular chef Lorena Garcia, while the losing team has to eat from the food trucks - a challenging task requiring them to resist temptation and choose wisely from the limited healthy food choices. Also this week, one trainer works to create better bonding and trust with their team while Bob surprises the contestants with a chance to win a weigh-in advantage before they step on the scale.

The teams face a challenge in the form of an obstacle course where the winning team can choose to skype with their families or have the gym to themselves, while the losing team gets what the winning team passes on. Following this challenge, a contestant gets eliminated and then the teams face a big challenge when several players switch teams. Following the switch-up, another contestant gets eliminated at the weigh-in.

The contestants face a luxury auction where they bid on flashy or functional items they can use during the week, where one of the items include a one-on-one workout with Bob. The contestants are back on the beach where they work as a team for a chance to win letters from home and spending the day on a yacht. Following each competition, a contestant is sent home.
