the 5th episode ,that wasnt supposed 2 air,the one with Lauren & Frank,Lauren had already been asked the hard questions,so why did she participate in the show if she knew that questions abt her cheating & such were gonna be asked of her?did she wanna ruin her marriage?it seems like she was tired of living with Frank.

According to Frank (in an NY Post story) he already knew about her cheating. So since she had already been busted and he'd decided to stay with her the worst part of that was admitting their dirty laundry on national TV; not that he'd find out something that he didn't already know.

She lost on such a subjective question, that elicits such mixed emotions "do you think that you are a good person" she probably could have answered the opposite ('no I don't think that I'm a good person') and the lie detector probably would have still said she was lying. All that those things do is measure stress and asking such a subjective question is mostly useless because most people have conflicted feelings on the issue of if they are a good person.

That's why law enforcement asks less subjective questions, such as "were you at home on the night of the murder" vs "did you feel that he deserved to die" and even than results aren't admissible in court.
