"THE BIGGEST LOSER 13"
"EPISODE 9"
02/28/2012 (08:00PM - 10:00PM) (Tuesday) : PLAYERS RETURN HOME FOR EMOTIONAL REUNIONS WITH LOVED ONES -- This week, the 11 remaining players put what they've learned to the test when they all go home for 18 days and are given the chance to gain immunity by losing 5% of their body weight. They'll also compete individually in a home rowing challenge that will earn the winner $10,000 when they are revealed at the weigh-in. While some contestants struggle with being back in their home environments, others prove they can stay on track, especially with the support of family and friends. Later, the contestants return to the ranch for grueling last chance workouts with trainers Bob Harper and Dolvett Quince before the weigh-in reveals who lost enough to gain immunity. Then another player goes home in the most emotional elimination so far this season. Alison Sweeney hosts the series.
