The American Idol top 13 battled for a spot in the top 12 on Tuesday, and a reward for one team on The Biggest Loser almost cost them a player.

The Biggest Loser, "710"

The night started with the continuation of last week’s weigh in. Mike lost 11 pounds, guaranteeing everyone’s safety. This week a member of the blue team was paired with a member of the black team, and whoever lost the most weight would get a point; three points meant safety from elimination.

To decide who would go against who and who on the black team would have to sit out of the face off everyone, except Kristin, Helen and Sione, did wall sits. Tara won. She put Mike v Cathy, Sione v Mandi, Filipe v Kristin, Helen v Ron and Laura v Aubrey. Tara didn’t participate because of an uneven number of players. Filipe was having a hard time with Jillian, especially since she didn’t seem to be paying attention to him. The night’s challenge was an obstacle race with medicine balls and several exercises. Each player completed a different leg, doing a different exercise. Kristin had to sit out for medical reasons, so Laura and Mike sat out to even things.

The race was really tight, but the black team won and were awarded 24 hours of luxury. The prize appeared sweet, but during dinner the winning team gorged on food and alcohol totaling over 15,500 calories. In the morning the team regretted their decisions, and Jillian freaked out when she learned the truth. Felipe told Jillian he doesn’t trust her, and he left the room screaming about how she ignored him.

Felipe and Sione decided they will now train with Bob. Before the weigh in Jillian said that the black team does not deserve to win. Tara weighed in first, lost zero pounds and set an awful tone for her team. Mike, Aubrey, Kristin, Helen, and Sione won their matchups. Laura and Mandi gained weight. The black team won. Laura, Aubrey and Mandi decided to force a tie so the black team would have to make the final decision. At the last minute Aubrey and Mandi went against the tie, and Mandi was sent home.
