I had to tape the last half hour of The last episode because of the weird time period! Just finished watching it! LOL Erin sure had it coming. The blank wideeyed innocent look wasnt working THIS time and I was surprised she tried WINKING at DT!! She truly didnt try during this task. Chris may be LOUD and brash but he didnt deserve to go this time. Personally, I think he doesnt have a clue about how his behaviour is being taken. Bet he thinks he is just being assertive!

Hi Watching! I <secretly> checked out your profile and found out you are from Rah Cha Cha! I'm from Batavia but have friends I visit all the time in Rochester (Henrietta and Greece areas)! I was thinking that Bryant & Stratton was only local, too. Yup, her name is Maria...funny we only remember that she blinked a lot!

If Tana continues as she has I see her winning absolutely. I wonder how it is going to work for her family. Her husbans job is not easily found in another city. It was fun watching Trump this time. He did NOT want to fire Erin and you could see the struggle. Carolyn's look at Erin would have burst her into flames if this were on the Sci Fi channel. The promos indicate that Chris did give up chewing, heightening his anger issues. Looks like a good show.

I would love to see Tana win. We need to see a female-type win this for once! I loved watching her with the kids. You could tell she's a mom. She's a natural!

I totally love Tana. I am also curious to see if DT would hire a non-college grad.

just watched it today - so so glad erin got fired - she is no corporate powerhouse attorney in my eyes - that is NOT how you win - and her whole attitude made me sick. I was so happy the other team came together and decided to do all they could do even though they hated the idea - THAT is teamwork and THAT is how you win ... and that is what Erin should have done. It doesnt matter if she doesnt know about home depot and its not just about admitting you dont know something - you admit you dont know and then you do whatever you can to contribute - AND any good leader CONSTANTLY is learning. George was so right in his comment about how this is a 16 week interview to see how people adapt to ALL situations - its not about what you know, but what you can learn and how you act in situations where you arent at your very best - those are the people that succeed the most. Not to mention, i always believed (and i will constantly repeat this) that the best leader is the one that gets off their horse and gets in that ditch to help the man digging the hole. You lead by example and showing everyone respect - and understanding all aspects of the work - not by saying i know nothing about this and so its not my place to be involved. Put in 150& and let Trump judge you on your effort even if you are a novice at something - and dont try to hide around the "not involved so you cant blame me" routine. Not to mention, diverting blame to others gets you no where - chris' tobacco had NOTHING to do with the project and yet that was the only thing erin could seize on to try to get him fired? Build up your own ability and be honest with what happened - but i really think the people who always try to transfer blame on others without taking responsibly are people who do not get far in life - at least not as far as they could. (i also didnt see anger in Chris - i just saw passion and fighting for what was honest - standing up against things that he saw as lies)

Quote: " . . . its not just about admitting you dont know something - you admit you dont know and then you do whatever you can to contribute . . ." EXACTLY! And the rest of what Legal said, too! Jennywa, I work with 4 year olds in a preschool setting, and they're exactly the same way. I get so tired of hearing, "Teacher, Johnny's [doing whatever]." I'm sorry to hear they're still doing this at 9--and apparently some never outgrow the tattling! I thought (hoped) it was a passing phase!

I wasn't impressed with Angie, Chris or Erin in the boardroom. I think Erinalso pointed out that Chris doesn't just chew but chews when it is inappropriate.. as in the mini golf episode when he was chewing away in his clown suit working with kids. AND that he swears alot, which Donald said is okay sometimes. I think I might have booted Chris first because his reaction was a red flag for the future. If the team isn't re-shuffled, they have now lost their best presenter.

Chris may fit VERY WELL in the construction business. Someone who can raise their voice and swear like a truck driver could be a good person to have. (As much as I hate to say it!)

What is the big deal about Erin being a great presenter. That does not make her an apprentice, that makes her a potentially good news reader or weatherperson. However, if any of you saw her on Fox & Friends this morning, she did not do that all that well either. Trump was grasping for straws, as he so often does. Dalm.

I think "presenter" may be exactly what the Apprentice does after being hired. From what I've read elsewhere on this thread, the two guys Trump has hired have been glorified salesmen for his buildings -- presenting might just be the most necessary skill after all! LOL Still glad Erin went though -- her attitude was just horrible!

I think it will be an Alex and Tana final. Neither one of them have really been covered in a negative way yet, whereas everyone else has been.

Carolyn's look at Erin would have burst her into flames if this were on the Sci Fi channel. Absolutely killing myself laughing!! I can just imagine the Laserbeams coming out of Carolyn's eyes like Cyclops from XMEN LOL

LOL Love the Carolyn comment, too! Hukd - I'm glad you "secretly" checked out my profile. LOL I actually live in Greece, but it's rather confusing on a profile for people who don't know it's a town which is a suburb of Rochester. We're "almost" neighbors!

I wasn't impressed with Angie, Chris or Erin in the boardroom. Neither was DT, and he said as much just before leaving the boardroom. I think DT thinks he has the worse group of would be apprentices to choose from this season....

Kep, I don't feel bad for DT. That is what you get when you go for TV value over apprentice value. Dalm.

I had to laugh when I heard Chris say he swallowed his dip...my ex always got the worst case of the hiccups when he swallowed - and it can also make you sick. I sincerely doubt he swallows. Keep an eye out - you will probably see a covered cup with a straw handy whenever you see him.

Did anyone notice that as Erin left the board room she turned to say something, but then kept going ? I thought she was going to make one last comment. I want the "pitbull" also known as Chris gone next , vamoss............

Marameko - I saw that, too. She very well could have gone back and said something and it was edited out.
