Okay, someone explain this one to me. When Audrey was doing her exit confessional in the cab, she said, "You know, in the end, those of us that walk away winning win more than just the loss." Huh? I had to go back and watch it again because I thought for sure I heard it wrong.

Of course, then she paused and said, "Mr. Trump did say I was beautiful, so that was nice of him." Followed by a giggle.

Max, LMAO, I did the same thing, I went "What, what does that mean?" it was very weird.

Costa, I almost awarded the bellini's but then thought, no I expect Costa will be along soon to do so!

Thiry18 did a wonderful job, and only the second time, we need to sign her up for more!! I love all our east coasters and mid coasters who give us west coasters the heads up. Thanks for all you wonderful spoilers, and tonight - - - - Thiry18 gets the Oscar.

i thought that audrey could not answer one simple question when her teammates asked for direction. she put the one guy off then asked him to put another guy on the phone, still did not give any direction, just told them there'd be a pow-wow later, etc. she never did quite get down to managing anything. and the clown idea sucked. do you know how many people loathe clowns!? i thought the safari idea was cute. my dd has been planning a miniature golf course and wants to do a california theme, with a golden gate bridge, a giant redwood tree, half-dome, mt. shasta or mt. whitney, alcatraz island, a mission, etc. she is 17 and would have been great at this project!

Ok, Audrey is a cute girl and all but COME ON!! Are you really going to tell a group of almost strangers that you were hated for being so beautiful?? This was a bizarre episode. Her "beauty" was mentioned way too many times.

She will giggle when DT calls her beautiful but act so outraged when John did?

I think her plan to bring Angie in was so Angie would have her back and help her gang up on the guys. That plan backfired. She seemed to not be able to do anything without Angie helping her.

Fabnsab, I had the same reaction you did. I always see a big red flag when someone claims large groups of people were jealous of them. It usually means they were somehow socially inept and put the problem on everyone else instead of owning up to their own behavior.

She's a pretty young woman and might have even been a beautiful child, but she's also quite petulant and that's probably had a lot more to do with the way people react to her. That one guy didn't like John's comment about her being 22 (seemed to act like it was out of line), but he hadn't been around her long enough to realize the validity of the statement.

I feel sorry for her sad childhood, but if she's doing well now she can surely afford to get help to heal her painful past. I'm sure others on the Net Worth "Street Smarts" team had tough childhoods as well. I'm glad Angie had the wisdom to cut herself loose from Audrey in the nick of time, rather than trying to team up with her against the guys in the boardroom.

Speaking of street smarts, I'm going to be sorry to see the teams get mixed up and the book smarts vs. street smarts game end. Trump probably wanted to take this opportunity to declare it a wash before book smarts started falling behind again.

Audrey's behavior was just plain odd! Agree with all the comments there.
I loved the book smarts marketing promos...they just wiped the floor with street smarts!!!!

Did Audrey really think 1.) Angie would support her when they were in the boardroom (after Audrey brought her in) and 2.) DT wouldn't ask Audrey why she brought Angie in?

I loved it when Angie said 'shut up and let me talk!" i couldn't figure out the logic of bringing Angie in..did she think it was to be an ally?
Also, it was so transparent that she brought the two guys in for retaliation for last week's board room.

I think the reason I enjoyed this episode so much is because there were no corporate sponsors involved - just like the first season.

Also, I will try not to hate Audrey because she's so beautiful. What was that girl thinking when she said that?

I got the impression that Audrey likes to put herself in the "victim" role. She hasn't a clue who her friends are and she has no loyalty whatsoever, as she proved when she brought poor Angie back into the boardroom. Maybe she did have a rough childhood, but I felt like she told her story more to be pitied. Expecting people to feel sorry for her for being so beautiful and misunderstood was ridiculous. Maybe people hated her because she was only looking after her own interests.
But, I didn't like John's comments to her - the way he called her "sweetie" was demeaning. I think Audrey should have been the one fired, but I think Trump should have called John on the sexist thing. At least, that other guy noticed it was inappropriate. But, then again, Trump had to make his own sexist comments about how he "couldn't be accused of firing the most beautiful girl" and also in the boardroom when he told her she'd do well because she was beautiful. I guess he thinks because he is "Trump" that sexual harrassment comments don't apply to him. And at the end, when Audrey said "at least he said I was beautiful" just set qualified, intelligent, hard-working women back another fifty years and will probably justify Trump's comments to himself.

well, it was more of the same on her interview on the Today show. I am just too beautiful to be taken seriously!! She did explain the point she was trying to make with her outburst about her childhood...i have had a tough life, nothing was handed to me, don't underestimate me cause i am young.....but it sure got lost in all the tears and yelling!!
she kept calling Trump and Burnett, Donald and Mark.....rme!! Also talked about how this changed her life, endorsements and stuff coming her way.

I loved all last week's hype about the "addiction".

Yeah, that was a big nothing.

While I agree that some of John's and The Donald's comments were not well-considered, I do not think they constitute sexual harrassment. Audrey was the one who first brought her looks into the equation. She opened the door, they merely walked through. Harrassment requires more than just a snide comment or two, IMHO. Audrey made comments about John getting over on his assets, too. Neither of them were entirely appropriate in their behavior towards each other -- they seemed almost juvenile at times.

And as you pointed out, Audrey played right into the "young and beautiful" stuff at the end. She came off very badly with her parting comments in the cab.

I just have a real problem when gals play the beauty/feminine/age card themselves and then get upset when a guy participates in the game. If you don't want people to play that way, don't do it yourself.

Does anyone else think Audrey is far from beautiful? Pretty, yes. Beautiful...not even in the ballpark.

I thought John's "22-year-old girl" comment was less about her being female and more about here being immature...which I thought she was. I still like John, because there is little pretense there -- he flat out told her he didn't trust her and why. Also, his "we all think we're better than everyone else, otherwise we wouldn't be here" comment was right on the money. I'll take a straightforward person like John over someone like Audrey who ended up taking her best friend into the board room for no apparent good reason.

Just saw the tale end of Audrey on Today. She does NOT come off professional at all. She comes off, to me, as a giggly girl (emphasis on girl) who plays the victim (as someone above stated). I just want to shake her and say, "Suck it up and deal!" She's pretty, not beautiful, IMHO. She's arrogant in calling The Donald and Mark Burnett by their first names as though they are childhood friends or something. Just seems disrespectful to me.

I'm also surprised at what she chose to wear for the interview. Torn jeans and a spaghetti-strap top? Big hair? Not a very professional look at all. If you want to play in the big leagues, you've got to dress the part and she just doesn't get it. She totally comes across as someone who feels she can play the victim and get by on her physical asets in a lot of situations. Every time anything work-related comes up, she plays the beauty card or the men versus women card.

EEK! "Men know how to handle me and boys don't know what to do with me." Talk about a sexist remark!

I'm sure she does very well selling real estate. But in a corporate environment, this girl would be eaten alive.

Personally I don't think her anymore arrogant calling Donald and Mark by their first names, that by them calling her Audrey.
What!! are we now back in the times of surfdom when we have to touch our caps to the 'betters'??

Kitty, I just think a certain level of respect is warranted.

The ladies on The View showed the clip of Audrey's meltdown and discussed the situation. Barbara likened Audrey's beautiful comments to the old commercials where the model said, "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful" and rolled her eyes. Star, "She's a pretty girl, but she's not so beautiful that we're going to fall all over ourselves and want the child to scar her face. You are cute, sweetie, get a grip." Barbara said there are lots of pretty girls in school and maybe they hated here BECAUSE she said "don't hate me because I'm beautiful."

I wish they would have talked about the parting line in the cab and tried to explain that to us! :-)
