    S4:E4

    Another food temptation this week puts the trainers to the test instead of the contestants. Should Bob, Kim or Jillian give in to the temptation, it will give their team a 15-second advantage in the physical challenge. The challenge consists of the contestants running up and down a hill to reach their team flag in the fastest time. However, there is one catch: the teams will have to outbid each other with a faster time in hopes that someone will wager lower and lose, which will end up knocking out a team.
