The supposed reason for their discontent is a secret twist reportedly planned by producers. The move would introduce former contestants back into the mix to compete for the $250,000 grand prize.
TMX reported that the remaining "Biggest Loser" contenders decided to bolt in the middle of shooting an episode because they think the twist could hurt their chances at the big prize. Now producers have shuttered production for a week to figure things out, reports TMZ.
If this is true, I'm amazed that "The Biggest Loser" producers are letting them get away with this. Don't they sign contracts? And I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out that Conda spurred the walkout.
I wonder if they walked out because they didn't want to face the people that they treated so poorly during the season. Roy! Nancy! Lauren! You were class acts. Bringing some of you back might actually save this season.
The "secret plot twist" wouldn't really be so unusual. There have been past seasons where eliminated contestants were able to come back. Last season, Ramon was eliminated but because he won the marathon, he was in the finals.
The next "Biggest Loser" episode, airing Feb. 28, finds the players returning home for 18 days with a challenge to lose 5 percent of their body weight.

Just curious, but do you know how many weeks it takes for the shows to air, from the time they happened? Just wondering how many contestants there may actually be left on the show when this walk-out occurred?
