Celebrity Fit Club Season 4 Episode 5

Celebrity Fit Club Season 4 Episode 5 You Just Got Injected With Victory Juice!

  • September 10, 2006

At the end of the last episode, the weigh-in ceremony ended with a full cast meltdown. Vinny erupted. Ted called out his cast mates. Angie stormed off. And for the first time ever, the teams never even made to the giant scales. This week, we pick up where we left off as Tina challenges Angie to step up her fit club game, and re-commit to the show.

Just in time to soothe these battle-worn fit clubbers, last week's fit camp winners, the Fat Crushers, are spirited off to Palms Springs the next morning for their prize-a spa vacation at the famous Two Bunch Palms. Nick stretches his definition of fitness with a pretty yoga instructor. Bone is blissfully cradled in a pool. Carnie enjoys a relaxing massage. And Erika sums up the wild weigh-in they are all recovering from as "Groundhog Day on crack."

Tina's Hot Buttered Soul lost the previous week's challenge, so they are treated to some extra motivation to get their spirits in shape. The red team is taken to a ranch where they find a bonfire, a teepee, a Native American medicine man, a band of spirit drummers and.... Gary Busey! The Fit Club veteran imparts wisdom as only he can: "Winners do what losers don't want to." To this weary group searching for inspiration, Busey's words somehow make sense. Tina finds a special connection to Gary as he reminds her of her father. And Angie gets some much needed perspective. Clearly all are inspired. The day closes with more Indian song, as the celebs dance along.

Later at the weigh-in, our cast quickly jumps back into fighting form when Carnie confronts Dr. Ian over an issue she knows intimately: gastric bypass surgery. The mood lightens briefly when Tina reveals her mom's stunning success at following Tina's fit club example. We also see footage of Nick back in New York for a basketball game with his brother John Turturro, and get his take on Nick's progress. Finally, Angie weighs in and we find out if the physical complaints she had at the previous fit camp will prevent her from working out and sticking with the fit club program. At a trip to the doctor, we discover that she hasn't been taking her medication and therefore can't take the heart stress test that Dr. Ian recommended. Angie starts taking her medications as prescribed, and Dr. Ian is able to take her back to the hospital for the test-where they get the happy news that she can safely participate in all fit camp activities. Now that she has the go-ahead from her doctor, Harvey offers to meet Angie the following morning to start a week long regimen of work outs. Angie agrees, but team captain Tina can't hold her tongue any longer, and lets Angie know how frustrated she is with her performance thus far. Angie's not happy, and neither is her team.
