Jillian was very overweight when she was younger. An amazing turn around.

If you watch the promo, and then look back to see who weighed what last week, and then do the math...It's pretty easy to figure out who gained the two pounds.

Hope this works. If not, just go to nbc.com and look on the right side of the page below the flashing show adverts. It's on a narrow strip and says "America Votes" w/their pics.

Night time.. we see the final four.. flashing back to their pre-season weigh-ins in public.

Yikes.. it is dark but Mike in this scene looks so small.. not sure if this is them back from 30 days or not.. or maybe just the black jacket Mike is wearing. Ashley in unfortunate outfit with white top stretched over tummy below belt making that area bigger, dark above belt..

We se scenes from the season.

They are watching on the big screen.



Now we see them in the gym with Alli, who congratulates them (Alli in a red top that will bring a thrill to Tc, I suspect.

This is Alli sending them away for the 30 days.

Mike in Chicago, welcome home party. He says this time it is different.

Ashley in Knoxville, TN hey I've been there.

Koli in Rohnert Park.. been there too! (well of course I've been to Chicago.

Daris, Ardmoore OK.. not sure if I've been there or not..

Crowds of adoring friends and family greet each of them.

Moms cry, people cheer.

Koli is festooned in many leis.

Daris says he'll show them how much he has lost.. 346 down to 195 -151

Mike's weigh in.. before, 526, now, 322, -204.

Tells of the record he set: most lost at the ranch.

Ashley is up now.. starting at 374, now she shows them she is 231, -143 and she tells of her record, for women on the ranch.

Now here comes Koli to show his peeps.. Starting at 403, down to 231, -172.

Big Smile.. Sam woo hoos too.

He says he lost more than Sione and Filipe at the ranch.

He promises he will win at the finale.

Oooops..

Alli comes on all the screens in a cute hoodie with fur, green/gray stripes, blue top and jeans.

She has a bike; but they will do this marathon ON FOOT.

If they win they can give $10,000 to charity of their choice.


Mike tells his family about Jennie-O extra lean ground turkey breast which he says tastes better than the traditional meat in their traditional meatballs, which are ground beef and fried.

They use chick peas instead of bread crumbs, bake instead of fry.

He says Italian families like to cook together.

Daris.. says now he is living life, doing what HE wants to do. He goes to his mom's store in downtown Ardmoore.. mom says he went from boy to man, making right choices.

He wants to impress his mom.

Ashley.. talks of her dad being sick and dying, weight out of control. She says this is what her dad wanted for her and she has done it.

We see her phoning, says lots of distractions here. Desperately trying not to fall back into that.

She says she won't drink, cannot be around it. Mom talks about Ashley's past partying.Mom is stoked about Ashley's determination to change.

We see Daris running on a road.. says he always wanted to run a marathon, faster than anybody else.. I'm the runner of the group.

Ashley never imagined running a marathon but she's excited.

Mike out running.. says he now has a life. Scared to DEATH.. this seems CA-RAZY.

Ashley calls Mike.. they say it is really hard. He says he's not losing weight. running and walking. She is freaking out.

Mike says they should do it together.. Ashley agrees, they can keep company.

(ick.. not looking forward to temptations if they have them.. these two will pig out and try to pull Daris down.

Curtis is arriving at Daris' house, since Daris "won" Curtis.

Daris says he cannot hang out at Buddroe's Rib Joint. .. Curtis says he wants to cook healthy dishes and have a party.

They go to Kroger..

Curtis adds a black bean soup (eeek) pork tenderloin, smoked trout dip, green beans with feta.

They serve friends in the restaurant..

The food seems to meet approval.

Now we see Koli at the Round Robin in Rohnert Park, CA.. where they seem to serve alcohol..

He says challenge to hang out in old bar and he had to grab Sam to let off on the pressure. Sam says he has been home for a week and the pressure is nonstop. Sam says put yourself first. They leave, pledging an early day in the gym.

We see Daris at 1 am.. he is stressing out, decided to eat something. Stressing about finding a girlfriend, the marathon, etc. So he slipped and ate and ate more and more.. feels like crap.

Koli is driving to Vegas, weekend at home but needed to be away from well meaning friends.

Needs right people to talk to. He is working out in Vegas at a mixed martial arts studio, classes, etc. Intense.

Just works out and sleep..

Bob in Vegas, and Chicago..Koli and Mike Jillian surprising the other two. Ashley and Daris

Mike is running and there is Bob in a pizza truck.

Jill knocks on Ashley's door.

Bob asks Koli why he is in Vegas (lol.. Koli says he wanted to gamble and eat the buffets.)

Mike tells Bob feeling ok, but having a hard time. Working harder than at the ranch.

Jillian is in a helicopter trying to find Daris.. no airport for miles in Ardmoore.

Bob and Jillian push the Filter for Good pledge and have saved lots of bottles..

Mike brings Bob to his home. Lots of family around. Bob said Mike's overweight sister stood out. Wants to work with her. (Rosangela) She just wants to fit in. She is crying..

Bob says she needs to know she is worth it and ask for help.

Jillian is still looking for Daris.. she is stampeding some horses though. Then she sees Daris.. the orange dot. Land the sucker and down they go.

Daris emits a "Holy Shit!" and off goes the copter.. and Jillian is with Daris. He says it has been interesting. Jill says that is code for difficult.. wants him to open up.

Bob doesn't understand why Koli is not at home. Koli says it is too crazy there.. has a show to win. Bob is worried about extremes and weight gained back. Doesn't want Koli to be like Eric.

Koli says he won't gain it back. No way will he ever be 403 pounds.

Koli says at 2 weeks, it is a struggle, surrounded by college guys eating pizza and cheeseburgers.

Mike seems worried.

Ashley went out and feels a little guilty.. sick, stayed out too late.

Jillian takes Daris for a workout (and Ashley too..

Bob works with Mike and presumably Koli.

Now they are all with Alli at the marathon site (and OMG, I'm SO happy that there was NO TEMPTATION.. maybe they felt our disgust last year over that sort of game at this stage in the show last year??)

Off they go on the marathon!! Daris is out front with Koli just behind him. Mike and Ashley are behind, together.

Cows watch them..

Koli says he hasn't seen Mike and Ash since Mile 1. Ashley hugs Mike.

Daris is looking good, despite wearing black knee socks.

Mile 3..

Daris is still running. Koli is slowing down, heating up a bit, but still running.

It was cloudy, but now the sun is out.. Daris still going well. Koli said the uphills were a challenge, he is talking to himself, encouraging himself.

Mile 5..

Mike and Ashley are jogging and talking about being the biggest man and biggest woman in the house and in the final four!

Koli at mile 9 with Daris presumably ahead.

Daris looks in back, don't think he can see Koli.. he is at Mile 13!!

He sees a red shirt... Matt Hoover, winner from season 2.. Matt will run with him a mile or two. That helped.

Koli wants to walk so bad, lots of pain all over at mile 12. At Mile 13, he sees Sione from Season 7!! His inspiration from the show. Sione looks bigger and shaggier than last year.

Mike and Ashley at Mile 11 and there is Ali Vincent!! SHE is looking great still..She starts running with Ashley and there is Mike Morelli(brown team) to run with Michael.

Mike is so encouraged!

We see Mike and his dad from last year in a Jennie-O turkey ad.

So we see Daris and Matt.. Daris says 20 is just another mile to pass.. and they pass it. Matt is winded so he peels off..

Daris forges on. Looking very strong.

Mike is walking now. says between Mile 15 and Mile 20 - very painful but he is determined to finish.

Michael is still with him. and very encouraging.

Ali and Ashley, Koli and Sione.. nice music..

Now there are some people on the side of the road to encourage them.. just a few..

Daris is almost finished.

Daris want to beat Tara's time of 4 hours 55 minutes, but he also wants to around 4 hours.

Cars are passing Daris and encouraging him. They are along the ocean now.. or Daris is.. Mile 23.. he sees dolphins. And then sees his sister Nicki who runs with him. He has to leave her behind as he accelerates.. wanted to finish strong. Mile 26 for Daris.. he is on the beach now approaching the finish line and his time is

4:02:14 (or a bit more).. Alli and others are cheering.

He killed Tara's previous time.

He hugs Alli.

We see Koli at PCH, says weather is perfect.. Mile 23. Quitting is not an option, Sione reminds him. Sione picks up the pace at mile 24.

Mike and Michael wonder how far ahead Ashley and Ali are/Pink and they start running to catch up.

And they catch up to Ashley who is walking and just says Hey..

She was happy with finishing together, and she was really hurting..

Koli and Sione near Mile 25 marker.. and it is his sister to run a bit with him.. he got emotional.. almost there and his sister is there.

Mile 26.. Sione says this is the fun part; finish strong.

Koli finished in 6:08:08 or thereabouts..

Daris hugs him. Koli sounds like he has asthma but is just emotional. Or not.. Dr Huizenga walks him off.. Koli wrapped up and hydrating and eating.

Coming up on Mile 25.. Ali and Sione tell Ashley and Mike to take it in, they will trail.

Ashley sees .. her brother in a pink shirt.. she is crying.. runs up to her brother. Mike is behind just a bit and sees his sister Mariaceles.. they all stop to hug.

Mike and his sister take off and then Ashley and her brother.. they are jogging in..Mike and Ashley in the sand, jogging.. coming in together.. 6:26:18 or thereabouts.

Lots of hugging and happiness..

Wow.. I knew Daris would win but not by so much, but then he really IS the smallest of them, but Koli isn't that far behind (basing this on their month old weights) and is taller...

Looks like all four get some sort of check for a charity.

Alli says nothing left but Final Weigh In

Bob and Jillian and the final four, plus Alli at final weigh in before the finale.

Two people with highest % of weight loss will be above the yellow line. The two below the yellow line will plead with America to make them the 3rd person in final three.

Michael is up first. He was 322 and now.. he is 299, busted through the 300 mark and lost 23 pounds!! 7.14%

Clapping, goofy grins, happiness..

He hasn't been under 300 in his adult life. Alli congratulates him. He hugs Bob.

Koli is next. He says he needs top two. He was 231 pounds. Now he weighs 218, only 13 pounds lighter. Hmm. 5.63%

Ominous music plays. Bob looks grim. Koli says Bob warned him; he was too goal oriented and didn't celebrate the small stuff. Says he feels it is slipping away right now.

Ashley is up next. She says her hands are sweating. She was 231 and now.. to be absolutely safe she must lose more than 16 pounds. She weighs in at 213, down 18 pounds! She is definitely in the final two/three. So much for misdirection, too.. but.. I cannot imagine that Daris gained pounds either. 7.79%.

Koli is below the yellow line.

Ashley is beaming, feels phenomenal (and great timing for a big loss!).

Daris tells her whether she knew it or now she is very strong, always knew who she was, etc. Nice speech, but don't agree.. it took her a few weeks, but still nice. Daris says she means a lot to him, girl.

Jillian beams, Ashley beams, Alli beams..

She says for the first time ever, she might be able to win something phenomenal. She will sprint in.

Daris is last up.. will it be Daris or Michael in top two or bottom two.

Bob says we are here.. this is the moment, Michael or Daris will be below the line with Koli.

Daris was 195.. can he lose more than 13 pounds?

He weighs.. OMG, he did gain.. 197.. of course he had less TO lose than anyone else.

+ 1.02%

He says he concentrated more on training for a marathon than losing weight. He's very proud of his marathon time and no one can every take that away. It does suck, but..

Bob says he is confused.. why would it be hard to lose weight training for a marathon??

Jillian says obviously he sabotaged himself, you don't gain 2 pounds training for a marathon.. she says something akin to BS, twice.

Mike is in the top two and Daris will compete for our votes with Koli.

Wondering if Daris isn't sorry he didn't send Mike home instead of Sam or Sunshine at some point.. but he did win the marathon!

Pleading their case

Koli says this is a very humbling experience, always stayed above the yellow line, until today.

Daris isn't proud of gaining two pounds. He says Jillian is right.

Koli.. hard for him to ask, begs to have the chance

Daris says I would do fine all day long and I would eat. He is crying . and he is not proud of that.

Koli hopes he has inspired us in any way, asks for our votes.

Daris asks to let him finish this, asking for a second chance.

Koli says his fate is in our hands, begs to be in final three.

Daris sighs and says thank you; give me a chance.

Alli says one week from tonight.. and will it be Daris or Koli?

I too voted for Daris. Koli - the person who accused others of gameplaying - has become the biggest gameplayer of all...going to Las Vegas as opposed to staying with his family and living his regular life - isn't that the whole point of the 30 days at home?

Oh, and I hardly recognized Michael in the opening montage of shots...he is a very handsome man and physically has transformed the most. He really has grown up over the past 5 months (and about darned time if you ask me...LOL!). He and Ashley were so sweet working together in the marathon.

I also voted for Daris ... I decided while watching the show if Koli was in the bottom two I wouldn't vote for him because he went to VEGAS and worked out with his friend and trainer.. the whole point of going HOME was to see what you could do with all the distractions!

I also have a small urge to see Daris/Michael/Ashley in the final three after the Grey and Yellow teams (who swore they never were into the "gameplaying" but would have voted any of them out if they fell below the yellow line....Side track.. I wonder what TBL didn't show us as far as discussions between those four...)

I too went ... Who's that behind Daris... LOL! And when he called Ashley "Cupcake"(on the phone) ... I said to myself "Really Michael .. a FOOD nickname???"

LOL, yeah, I thought that too (a food nickname), I think he called her shortcake though. I could be wrong. I know it was a food though.

Daris is not in the right mind set re the eating and then making excuses (I was training for a marathon). I hope by now in real time that he is. For him to run that marathon so fast was so excellent. I am so proud of him.

I'm ok with Koli going to Vegas. I don't see it as game playing, just as him wanting to do whatever he can to win.

I love Ashley's energy and ... I can't find the right word...just the way she is, her spirit ...but that isn't quite capturing what I'm trying to say.

I'm really proud of all of them. Great show last night. I had quite a few tears.

I'm glad it looks like most people are for Daris. I agree, didn't like the fact that Koli did not stay home in his old environment, however tempting it might be. He needs to learn to deal with the roommates and food soon!

My friend and I have called Ashley "Tink" since the beginning of the show because I think she looks like Tinker Bell!
(And I have a really hard time remembering names in a show that starts with a huge cast :-))

Puzzled,

Go to nbc.com and look on the right side of the page below the flashing show adverts. It's on a narrow strip of pics and says "America Votes" w/Koli and Daris' pics.
