Elizabeth, 31, Marina del Rey, California. Elizabeth owns a consulting firm and holds a B.B.A. from the University of Michigan. She learned from Season 1 to “think outside of the box.” She admires the creativity Amy showed in Season 1. Elizabeth’s resume, which includes working with more than 30 Fortune 500 companies, is impressive. Will she impress Trump as well?

Ivana, 29, Boston, Massachusetts. Ivana is a venture capitalist whose first challenge was the simple fact that she shares a name with Donald Trump’s ex-wife. Ivana told Entertainment Weekly that when Trump heard her name, he said, “’You know, that woman took a lot of money from me.’” She believes her “personality, brains, and sass” are what it takes to win the competition.

Jennifer C., 31, New York, New York. Like many of the candidates from Season 1, Jennifer works in real estate. Her favorite player in Season 1 was Troy, and she learned to treat the experience just like a job interview. When Jennifer first started her career in real estate, she impressed her peers by closing contracts much faster than usual. Trump is bound to respect a woman who knows “The Art of the Deal>.”

Jennifer M., 29, San Francisco, California. Jennifer is an attorney with a law degree from Harvard. She’s eager to make the transition from the legal world to the business world. Her favorite Season 1 player was winner Bill.

Maria, 31, Virginia Beach, Virginia. Maria is a marketing executive whose favorite candidate from last season was Heidi. Maria was the youngest Vice President in the history of her company. She believes her positive attitude will win her the job.

Pamela, 32, San Francisco, California. An investment firm partner who, like Season 1 runner-up Kwame, has an M.B.A. from Harvard, Pamela thinks she should win because she’s, “much more qualified, far better looking, and a little bit taller” than the other candidates.

Sandy, 28, Rockville, Maryland. Like Season 1 candidate – and her favorite player - Troy, Sandy has only a high school diploma. When she was 21, she became the youngest bridal store owner in the country. She believes her experience as an entrepreneur gives her the advantage she needs to win.

Stacie, 29, New York, New York. Stacie owns a Subway restaurant and learned in Season 1 to “be concise” in the boardroom. She admired Kwame’s work ethic. She also works as a professional model.

Stacy, 26, New York, New York. Another attorney, Stacy admired Nick the most in Season 1. She learned to never underestimate the competition.

On to the men…

Andy, 23, Boca Raton, Florida. The youngest candidate this time around, Andy is a Harvard graduate who learned that falling asleep on the job is a bad idea. He believes that his youth gives him an advantage because, “Solutions that really drive companies come from younger people. Bill Gates, Steve Jobs – when they created their vision, they were really young.” Andy is also a champion debater, which is bound to help him in the boardroom.

Bradford, 32, Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Bradford is also an attorney and is determined to, “think big on all the tasks.” He says that for him, winning is everything. Bradford also picked up a number of practical lessons from the first candidates – like not to sell lemonade in a fish market and to always meet your clients. This practicality could be an advantage for him.

Chris, 30, Long Island, New York. Chris holds only a high school diploma, but works as a stockbroker. He thinks that Season 1 players should have used more common sense, and cited Nick as his least favorite player. Chris has been an entrepreneur since the age of 11. Last season, Trump admired entrepreneur Bill, so he may admire those same qualities in Chris.

John, 24, San Francisco, California. John is a marketing/real estate director who admired Nick’s cockiness in Season 1. He believes his competitive drive will set him apart from the other candidates.

Kelly, 37, Carlsbad, California. Kelly holds both an M.B.A. and a law degree from UCLA and works as a software executive. He is also a graduate of West Point and served as a U.S. Army intelligence officer for two years. He believes his military experience will help him win.

Kevin, 29, Chicago, Illinois. Kevin is a law student with an M.B.A. from Wharton. Kevin and his brother also co-own a software company. He’s learned that Trump doesn’t want to hear excuses in the boardroom. He identifies with Kwame because, “he was the only brother, and I’m the only brother in this one.” With an impressive education, Kevin may well be ambitious enough to win the big prize.

Raj, 28, Vail, Colorado. Raj is a real estate developer who watched Season 1 thinking, “I could beat these guys.” Sam was his favorite player in the first season.

Rob, 32, Frisco, Texas. Rob, a corporate branding salesmen, learned to, “watch out for pieces of falling drywall.” He believes that if he acts “in a businesslike fashion,” he’ll win the job.

Wes, 27, Atlanta, Georgia. Wes is a private wealth manager with a B.A. from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. He believes that his “balance” is what Trump needs in a candidate.

ABOUT THIS YEAR:

While candidates on the first season were selling lemonade and t-shirts, the candidates this time around will be working with Fortune 500 companies like Mattel, Crest, Levi’s, and M&M/Mars. As Trump said in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, “We went from lemonade stands to Procter & Gamble and Pepsi. They’re going to make this toy [for Mattel] and sell it. It’ll probably be the No. 1 toy.” The rewards and celebrity cameos promise to be bigger, too. A picnic lunch on the lawn of Trump’s country estate, a prize in the first season, will pale in comparison to being swept off in Trump’s plane to meet a celebrity for a lavish dinner. One can only hope that this trip on a private jet won’t end in an ugly “pot calling the kettle black” fight as it did in Season 1. Celebrities such as Billy Joel, Mike Piazza, and Anna Kournikova are among those who will appear on The Apprentice 2.

The second season will feature 18 candidates from all walks of life, including both Ivy League MBA graduates and street entrepreneurs with no college education.

In the Season Premiere, star and executive producer Donald Trump will split the candidates into two teams of nine. Each week, they will endure rigorous business tasks while living together in a hip Manhattan suite. Prominent Fortune 500 companies were enlisted to participate in many of the tasks. Like last season, the tasks will test their intelligence, chutzpah and street smarts. Unlike last season, the tasks will be more intense and the stakes much higher.


Stay tuned for the first questions!!

First Questions:

In the premiere, after meeting Trump, George, Carolyn and each other for the first time, the contestants will move into their luxurious new suite and immediately begin to create team names.

The next day, after assembling at the Toys "R" Us in Times Square, Trump will disclose the teams' first tasks -- to create a new toy for the Mattel toy company... with one member of the losing team to be told "You're Fired."

In addition, Burnett said a new "twist [that] relates to project managers" will be added to the show. In "The Apprentice," project managers - who oversee a team task in each episode - are considered sitting ducks if they blow the task.

Thanks, guys. Things have been very busy; I'm spending alot of time with my mother, helping her get through it. I haven't had any time for reality shows, although I've basically kept up with Big Brother. I haven't been in to talk about it though. I"m looking forward to this one!!!

A Twist in the game:
Trump on the Today show this morning stated that the project manager of each task will be immune from firing.
This will make them less prone to not wanting to be project manager.

I'll post the scores later today, but the answer to the twist question is still false. I specifically asked if that person would be "exempt from firing for the week." The twist, as it was revealed, is that the person is exempt the next week.

As for the question about who backstabs, there are numerous possibilities, but I think it was Raj when he told Trump that the team should revote on the name, causing the PM to say "the team likes the name". What do ya'll think?

HELP- I'm not sure now. Was it Raj or Andy who wanted the name Empire so bad that he told Trump they should revote on the name?

I might have to wait until CBS posts their recap to post the scores!!
