Forget the players! It's Bob vs. Dolvett on 'Loser'
Mitchell Haaseth / NBC
It was Dolvett vs. Bob on Tuesday.
By Ree Hines
Grandstanding, tensions and tough talk -- those are common enough behaviors on any competitive reality TV offering, but it's usually the contestants who can't keep the peace during the game. Not so -- at least not yet -- on "The Biggest Loser" this season.
As last week's premiere episode hinted, and Tuesday night's follow-up confirmed, it's veteran trainer Bob Harper and returning "transformer" Dolvett Quince who have each other in their sights.
This time around, the first signs of trouble showed just after Dolvett's red team took an unexpected risk during the first challenge. Hot on the heels of their recent scaleside win, the reds, or rather, their voluntary representatives Kim and Kimmy, gambled that the team could drop 3.8 percent of their weight for the week. That's 94 pounds -- nearly 10 pounds each in the notoriously difficult second week of the game.
Bob's black team knew that with a goal that high, the odds were against the other team. They declined an opportunity to counter with a higher offer. So it stood. If the red team met the bet, they'd win a 5-pound advantage. If they lost, Team Black won the perk.
While Dolvett wasn't thrilled with the almost-impossible task ahead, he got into the effort -- a little too into it.
As both teams gave their all in the gym, Dolvett pulled out a can of spray paint and graffitied the goal on the wall, where the red shirts couldn't forget what they needed to accomplish.
It wasn't long before a grumpy Bob followed the fumes and saw it for himself.
?Ugh! God, that red team is just so cocky,? Bob said with disgust. ?Dolvett painting 94 pounds on the wall? I mean, are you a child? What?s going on here??
?Yowch!
The bad blood didn't stop there. Later, when both teams were putting their all into their respective last-chance workouts, Dolvett noticed that someone sprayed a sarcastic "good luck" over his motivational marks.
"Somebody tagged my tag?? he huffed before channeling the mood into a grueling routine -- a grueling and familiar routine.
?Oh my God! It?s like I just looked at all my workouts he does," a clearly irritated Bob said. "It?s like he?s watched every season of mine, and he does all my sh-- in front of me. Drives me nuts!?
In his own defense, Dolvett said, "I don?t think Bob has exercise as a trademark.?
Snap! But ...
(Note to Dolvett: I've watched every episode of every season of this show, and while you're still my imaginary reality TV boyfriend -- rowr! -- I have to say, those moves were classic Bob. He might not hold the trademark on having players go from a plank to an inverted-V and then having one after another crawl under the group, but in the "Loser" gym, he might as well. It's sort of his thing. Not that you don't do it well.)
Of course, Bob still had a chance to get back at his in-gym nemesis -- on the scale. By the time half of Dolvett's team stepped on the scale, it was obvious there was no way they'd win the bet with modest 3-, 4- and 5-pound loses. Still, they held out hope that they might win the weigh-in, despite the fact that Black held the advantage. But that hope was dashed soon enough.
The black team, led by a suddenly pleased Bob, won it, and the reds got their first taste of the elimination room this season. While in there, they decided to boot the often gruff Mike.
The man had a prickly personality and one heck of a past (smoking two packs a day at the age of 12), but once his fate was certain, he seemed oddly sympathetic and finally dropped the tough-guy act. If only he'd done that earlier.
What did you think of Mike's last-minute, nice-guy routine? And what about the rising tensions between Bob and Dolvett? Sound off on our Facebook page.

Welfare Debt Collection Eases in Calif.
By VAUHINI VARA
California is ending a practice of seeking money from people whose parents were accidentally paid too much in welfare benefits years ago, after a lawsuit brought attention to the issue.
The California Department of Social Services on Friday issued a letter directing counties to "immediately terminate all collection actions" against adults or emancipated minors whose parents are indebted to the state.
By state law, California can target a welfare recipient's family to return overpayments when it is unable to get the recipient to repay the debt. Counties had been pursuing offspring of welfare recipients using methods such as intercepting their tax refunds and reducing their own welfare grants.
The decision to end the practice came after a 19-year-old and a 14-year-old sued the state in November for forcing them to repay their mothers' welfare debts. "I never knew this problem existed until the state started coming after me," said the 19-year-old, Jamie Hartley, a community-college student.
The suit got the attention of Darrell Steinberg, the Democratic leader of the state senate, who asked Gov. Jerry Brown to stop the practice. Mr. Brown's spokesman didn't respond to a request for comment. Mr. Steinberg called Friday's decision "a significant victory."The social-services department halted the collection effort to "allow young adults to move forward toward their independence and provide an opportunity to work towards self-sufficiency," said Michael Weston, a spokesman.
Mr. Weston said the state hasn't determined how many people or how much money will be affected. Antionette Dozier, an attorney for Ms. Hartley, estimated the state was pursuing "a few thousand" people.
The state's decision is "a great step forward, but there's more work to be done," Ms. Dozier said.
In particular, the state may still target children who are minors no longer living with the adult who owes the debt, such as the 14-year-old who filed suit with Ms. Hartley and lives with her great-grandfather. Clarence Ayers receives $334 a month in state aid to support his great-granddaughter, Irene, and Fresno County has threatened to cut the grant to repay almost $3,000 mistakenly paid to Irene's mother.
With respect to such cases, Mr. Steinberg says he hoped to address that issue with legislation.

Green Car Congress: CODA Automotive offers lower-cost battery ...
CODA Automotive offers lower-cost battery and range option for electric sedan
CODA Automotive will offer two mileage range and price options in 2012 for the CODA sedan. In addition to the original model, equipped with a 36 kWh battery pack offering up to a 150-mile (241 km) range with a MSRP of $39,900, a new 31 kWh battery option will provide a driving range of up to 125 miles (201 km) and will be available at a lower base MSRP of $37,250.
After federal tax savings, the base price will be $29,750, and will qualify for additional state tax credits, including a maximum of $2,500 in California and up to $7,500 in 12 other states.
Research shows that the high cost of today's alternative fuel technologies is one of the largest barriers that keep the average driver from purchasing an electric vehicle. Our continuous dedication to identifying affordable solutions and passing the savings on to our customers aligns with our mission of putting an electric vehicle into every garage.
?Phil Murtaugh, CEO, CODA Holdings
A 6.6kW onboard charger provides a 100-mile charge in as few as four hours. The active air thermal management system provides constant battery care by keeping the Lithium-iron Phosphate (LiFePo4) battery pack at its optimum temperature in hot and cold weather conditions.
CODA anticipates first deliveries of the 2012 CODA sedans will begin next month.
