No bellinis for me. I've got a glass of Merlot. Well, okay. If you insist. I'm only driving from the computer to the couch and later to the bedroom. I should be okay. I'll watch out for those check-points along the way!

I'm not spoiling, just sayin' what happened. Last week's losing team was divided into two teams. Michelle's (one of the PMs) team lost the project which was creating and operating a one-time special bus tour in Hollywood. When they were in the boardroom, Michelle said the experience is not what thought (living in tents, business-speak, etc., etc.), so she withdrew from The Apprentice. Trump insisted she was quitting. She said she was being true to herself. She left. No one else was fired. Kudos to Michelle for that.

In the boardroom, Ivanka asked Michelle if she still would have "quit" if her team had won. Michelle said she still might have. I believe her.

Wow! But y'know... I don't blame her. I don't think I would've been too happy if I'd gotten on the show, and then was relegated to living outta tents in the backyard. I mean, I like to camp. But I like to camp WHEN I WANT TO CAMP, not when I'm applying for an apprenticeship (reality show or no).

Michelle was the one who wasn't getting along too well with the others? I'm not surprised she bailed, if so. I pegged her for getting kicked off sooner rather than later.

At the very end, others on her team said she would have been fired anyway. I would have gotten out of there too. But then I wouldn't have been in there in the first place.

Right, she still wasn't getting along.

The Apprentice is getting so far off track from what it was in the beginning. And I don't think it was ever that good.

Thanks Color. I'm thinking this season is just too too for it's own good. Boring is one word that comes to mind! :-)

What surprised me tonight was when Donald more or less forced Michelle into being PM for her 1/2 of the team, her first two choices were the two people that disliked her the most. I didn't get that at all.

I don't blame her for leaving. I can't wait until the team realizes Nicole is not a nice person. They'll wish they had Michelle back. I never saw her do anything to any of them; they just didn't like her. One of the reasons might be that she was a realist. When she tried to work with them this week, they called her indecisive. There's no way she was ever going to get any respect on that team. It really was below her. Kudos to her. Lame show; lame team.

I haven't seen the show yet. It's not on here for another hour but last week what I got from watching was Michelle's team didn't like her because she actually had the nerve to speak up when they were wrong. They didn't like it. And, they were wrong.

Well that's why she tried to get their approval and consensus before making a decision tonight, Chiliwilli, and they dragged her down for that. They are bunch of <100> and she was too good for them and the tent. Ridiculous.

I do not like the concept of the tent. I also really hate the idea of the winning team leader continuing to lead until their team loses. Makes no sense in a job interview as important as this for the first lead, chosen more or less randomly on first impression day one to continue leading. And then they even skip a week of challenge? WRONG!

OK now we are watching it and we just hate this whole haves and have nots concept. What does that have to do with a job interview? Yep, this series jumped the shark and landed in LA.

I've never watched the previous seasons so don't have anything to compare this season to. It's just started here and I'm seeing the men ganging up on Michelle. They are mean and sound somewhat threatened by her. Poor babies.

Yep, me again- I just finished watching and am beyond annoyed with this show. SO many things to dislike! Putting Michelle as PM was so unfair to her with her whole team hating her. I felt like they threw it. I wish she had mentioned that part of it.

Then him saying the other team is "winning consistently". Twice! Huh? That does not make a trend.

These gimmicks were not needed- I liked the show just as it was and it feels like they have come up with things to mix it up and get viewers perhaps but they are losing this one.

I hate the tent also, it isnt fair, how are they supposed to be as ready for the day as the others..this is a job interview not Survivor.

They could have had a seperate area of the house that wasnt as fancy or something kinda like the A and B list on Surreal life but the tent thing sucks.

Michelle was horrible as PM but she spoke so well in the BR. Trump was right she would have looked better to just suck it up and get fired

I'm not, Ketchuplover. I thought the big 'twist' aka 'surprise' aka SHOCKER was going to be that he fired the part of the team that lost the challenge. Those ingrates were furious at Michelle for quitting because they were afraid one of them would be fired and she was their scapegoat. They ALL deserved to be, and should have been, fired. There was no teamwork. That would have made good TV.

I wish I had it on tape. If I recall correctly, DT said that the teams were to develop a concept for a Starline Tour and the team which made the most would win.

I thought the team was a guaranteed LOSER As soon as they started arranging the Laker Girls at 85$ an hour, buying bottled water and Popcorn.

Both Buses were full therefore I'd like to know how much the riders had to pay so that the team who put out such a large amount of cash could win above the team that did NO extra charges.

I saw at least 8 Laker Girls. That is a minimum of $680. I'd guess the doubledecker was around 85-100 seats. That is at least $180 for popcorn/water per seat.

I just dont believe that it would be a viable tour with those perks.

Good Gimmick though, Pretty Faces, Beautiful Places.

Michelle's team was screwed from the getgo. I didnt see anyone trying to help her. Being PM is not a 'one man show' in which you do everything yourself and command others to follow orders.

There seemed to be no 'power idea session' on either team. one man (not the PM) did all the work on the winning team, Michelle's team refused to pull together.

Other seasons a team would basically ignore a pathetic PM and at least TRY and win the task.

I didnt see that with Michelle's team. A bus full of families and the guy starts going on about Heroin ODs and Speedballs??

IF Michelle wanted to fight to stay she could have. I admire her spunk and refusal to stay. DT seemed kind of desperate and Ivanka + Son obviously were kowtowing to their father....yet again. Those two do not have the years of experience needed to weed out employees. This season is a farce and Good On Michelle for bailing.

I thought it was hilarious how DT was attempting to scare her into believing she would fail in business if she quit. This woman is successful already. His pseudothreats were groundless.

I will be very surprised if the team isnt all in the guesthouse next week. DT and his kids seemed to have fear in their eyes.

Remember, DT doesnt like to fail and he wouldnt want any more "quitters" to ruin his show.

yes, I am aware that in the Boardroom DT said that the team who got the best reviews WON.

We also werent told the budget. IF there was a budget, why did Michelle's team do NOTHING>???

To spend that amount of money makes no sense in Business. Spending a thousand for each tour-bus of people would not ensure a company would exist for more than a short time before fizzling out.

Sunshyne- I tivod it and he said from the beginning it was all based on how the tour was rated by the tour riders on surveys. So I guess they could use whatever money they wanted. I honestly had a feeling the whole time that Michelle's team was not trying very hard and planned to throw her under the bus. I too wish they had all been fired.Just the way they behaved in the BR before the results were told, in their divisiveness shows they are not the people for the job. It was so clear they were out to get Michelle. Bah. Not liking this season at all.

The other team being treated like golden already makes zero sense. They have competed twice. Meaningless.
