First, the contestants learn they’ll all be playing as one team this week and if they collectively lose 100 lbs., everyone will be safe for another week. A cauldron of candy hanging on a Biggest Loser scale tempts the players all week in more ways than one – for every pound of candy eaten, a pound will be deducted from the amount they all need to lose, up to 10 lbs. This week’s challenge finds players racing through a haunted maze trying to collect as many apples as possible, with another weigh-in advantage – and disadvantage – hanging over them. With the trainers working out all of the players this week, one contestant has separation anxiety, and one trainer is not amused when the contestants play a Halloween trick on him. Plus, a big secret shared by two contestants is revealed. Later, one player ties a Biggest Loser record on the scale before another contestant is sent home.
