Tammy's presentation was pleasant, but it did not sell anything. Everyone loses the task when they do not sell. I did not think that the Donald watch exhibit sold either. But he gets to judge, not be judged.

I know what you mean chieko (sorry everyone for the posting spree, lol). I can see the execs points, but myself preferred the loungey set-up. I guess that the whole tent thing looked tacky in a walmart sort of way was a plus.

i still haven't seen tonight's show (in Los Angeles). i still love this show, even tho' watching trump is difficult. still, it's amazing that trump (or his reps) searched and interviewed thousands of applicants...but came up with these people? well, sorry, but IMO, doesn't look good for trump when these people are the final people. however, i will still say...i enjoy watching this show...to say "love" is a bit much. while i'm here, i just have to post this, in case any of you don't watch "ellen": when trump and wife had the baby, ellen gave him a baby stroller. so funny, it was gold, with a gold chandelier hanging above, with marble bottom! lol it fit in with his "rich taste".

Tammy's voice made my ears bleed, too, and Allie's scrunched up face made my eyes bleed. There isn't one single person worth even hiring, IMO. Maybe that's why the Donald seemed a bit PMSey tonight

I wanted to see all three women go tonight. Actually I only see one real candidate left: Sean. I can't imagine Allie in charge, what a disaster. And Roxanne didn't seem much better tonight. I don't dislike Lee, but seems so young--seems like Trump usually has a young candidate that he really likes, hangs on a long time, but ultimately goes. I hate to say it, but hoping for an all-male finale this time.

No matter who is left at three that stage is always an interview with three or four of Trumps highest people in his company. If Allie doesn't get control of her facial fetures and rolls her eyes(or as she calls it lifts her eyebrows) once she will be out of there. Sean and Lee could carry an interview but lee may get to much like a political canidate. Not sure how roxanne would do. Possibly decent if Allie wasn't by her side.

Trump might have to hire one of them because it is the premise of his show...but he may have them push a broom or something. He must be pulling his combover out over the remaining people!

When Sean was doing the voiceover work at Dreamworks in L.A., I was hoping to see that little creature on screen yelling "you bloody wanker"!!!!

Anyone think it was odd that DT talked about traitors and how you should get rid of people who don't back you up. Then he fires Tammy instead of either of the two that pretty much were traitors to Tammy?

Do you think DT was referring to Martha? I wonder if Tammy's tone of voice really did give him a headache? He should have just gone ahead and fired all three of them. What happened to Plan B?

I'm trying to figure out how the guys won when the display they had looked like crap (I would not have gone near it for fear it would collapse on me). Not that I thought the women had that great a concept but at least it was complete. I think this is the first time I've seen a team win on it's "concept"; usually DT stresses execution of the concept as most important.

He made a point of the guys having the prices there but I think he just wanted to keep the guys. I keep remembering how Carolyn always stressed having a Plan B and thought the guys could have been prepared for the failure of Plan A.

I agree, Rosie. Especially when they found out the night before that the floor they were expecting at midnight wouldn't be there until 7:00 am. I think at that point I would have gone with a blank floor and roof and had it set up for the wrap. Would have looked much better. Or, when the floor arrived at 7:00 am and they were told that the roof wouldn't be dry until just about presentation time, they should have sent him back to get the blank roof. Looked like very poor decision-making to me on what would otherwise have been a pretty impressive-looking display.

I think had Carolyn been there she would have pointed that out because how much time did they waste just waiting for stuff to get there.

I am guessing they won because the concept was so much better.

Warning: Snark attack! Do any of you find it "interesting" that Trump's got this "Get Rich with Trump" thing going on? Like, how do we pull in more viewers and increase our stats. Bleah. I watched last night's ep this morning. I was seriously unimpressed with both teams, really. First of all, I couldn't believe the attitude from Roxanne and Allie (and Roxanne's constant harping about Tammy's "me" comment). Unfortunately, I get the execs point... I think Tammy misunderstood what the competition was about. It wasn't about introducing the XBox, it was about selling the XBox in WalMart! That said, dang, did the guys' display look like hell. I'd have taken down the circular thing, hung it straight (two walls, to direct flow), and just gone with it. I don't see any of these folks as being a real apprentice. I see none of these folks left as truly able to think on their feet. All's I can say is... good luck Trump! <snicker>

I can easily picture Allie and Roxanne back in HS...... "Like, Oh My Gawwwd. Did you seeee the look she gave you when she walked over? She's just so like, ......<insert any snarky descriptive jab>" And then of course....
Those faces Allie was giving in the boardroom. I'm so glad Bill called her out on it. Something else that's grating on my nerves is when DT makes something even remotely like a joke, or something supposed to be perceived as humorous, and the candidates all smile and laugh like he's just the funniest most amusing and entertaining man on the planet. Allie and Roxanne have mastered the art of eye rolling and behind the back titters. Wouldn't it be funny if, during the reunion show, they showed previously unaired clips of them bashing and making fun of DT when they thought they were alone and unseen in the suite! I can't imagine they could have gone all this time without making some sort of remark about DT, Caroline, George, Bill or Ivanka when they thought nobody was listening. They just don't have it in them to resist the temptation.

Yep, Trump took that $10K trick straight from Deal or No Deal, another NBC show.

I hate to say this, but I missed this week's show 'cause I fell asleep and forgot to turn the VCR on. The sad thing is I don't even feel like I missed anything. This year's group is just pitiful!

Yum, today is Wednesday, when my newspaper has the column from the Bellevue Community College Business Instructor. Interesting how she has a different take of many of the very same issues brought up here: As usual, I learned new things: Wednesday, May 17, 2006 Apprentice 101: Eye rolling (and denying it) fails to impress Bad behavior proves costly to team of women on the latest episode of "The Apprentice." By MAUREEN MORIARTY, SPECIAL TO THE P-I http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/business/270474_apprentice17.html I especially agreed with Ms. Moriarty: ".... - The ugly - Blatant disrespect I wouldn't hire Roxanne or Allie based on their performance this week; they could be poster women for immaturity, cattiness and a lack of professionalism. Their continual display of disrespect for their manager was pathetic. Frankly, it was amazing Rancic and Trump let them get away with it. It also was embarrassing to see the women bickering and talking over one another in the boardroom; hardly role models for impressionable young people watching the show. ...."

Everyone on TV does not have to be a role model. Often bad behavior can be more a more powerful tool in learning. This is entertainment first and an employee for Trump second. He will hire the best candidate but there is a production staff who require some interesting characters to keep the viewers coming back. What is better than to have Allie and Roxanne in the next episode? Both are expendible as is Lee. I think it is all about who is going up against Sean.
