Was it Trace's idea to have the sweeper pick up nuts and bolts and screws? Trump made it sound like it was but I don't know if it was or not. He has been so very clever and creative in the past that I want to believe that this too was his idea.

I think Marilu didn't bring in Carol for the very reasons that she stated--she knew her work ethic. She believed Carol when Carol said she didn't know about the easy pay and felt loyalty to Carol due to their working together since the beginning. I think Marilu's motives are pure. I didn't have much of an opinion of Marilu before this show but now believe her to be a class act with great integrity. (But she does talk to much.)

I liked Marilu, though she does talk a bit too much and takes on a bit too much responsibility. Not sure that is too bad a trait, though, in the way of weakness. It's way better to be someone who puts yourself out there, instead of someone who cops out.

I love Stephen Baldwin. He has heart, yet he is tough and smart and seems to have great passion for whatever he is involved in. He's the type of person you want for a friend, not because he is perfect but because he will go to the mat for you. And I love how all of the Baldwin brothers support their mom's charity. She has raised some interesting personalities!

Has Trace or Tito been PM yet?

I like Stephen too. He seems to always have a smile on his face and something thoughtful to say.

LOL at Marilu's cleavage in the boardroom (didn't work)

I can believe that Trace is v. intelligent. I've watched a few of his vids and he seems to market himself brilliantly ... his ideas and comments on the show are always great too. I am still rooting for him.

Lakecat, Trace was PM two eps ago and lost

Trump made the first exception in the history of the show and fired no one.

I think he didn't want to let Trace go because he was probably one of the most ideal candidates he's ever had -- a creative machine, well liked and respected, team player, good leader, etc -- it seemed like kind of a fluke that the other team was able to call in a contributor or two who wrote bigger checks at the last minute, tho their task was poorly managed.

The loss might be tough for Trace to overcome down the line, though

This was the first episode this season where it didn't matter how many rich friends they had. It was all based on marketing and sales. I didn't get Marilu's love for the ladder, but I want that sweeper! We have a little dog who's always bringing grass, twigs and rocks into the house, so I could really use that one.

Not feeling the Stephen love here. To me he just seems very smug and full of himself. Not genuine at all.

And Omarosa doing the Sally Field impression, "Trump likes me! He really likes me!" Just gag. How much longer is he going to torture us with this woman?

Tito was PM and won - he gave the check to a little girl from St. Jude's and was so good with the girl.

I'm with you Babyjax, loved the sweeper didn't get Marilu's love for the ladder. However, I do like Stephen and find him an energetic and likable guy (did find the whole spy thing, kicking the note away to someone else a bit odd).

By the way Babyjaxmom, one of my friend's baby's name is Jaxon. Her name could be babyjaxonmom. I'm guessing your child's name is Jax. Could his name be Jaxon and you call him Jax? My friend and her husband named their son Jaxon with the intent to call him Jax but they are still calling him Jaxon right now. Love the name.

I'm so disappointed that Omarosa is still there.

Westtexan, actually my son's name is Jack. I'd used the name "Jaxmom" (Jack's Mom) on other sites, but for some reason when I signed up here, they wouldn't let me use it (I think I may have already signed up and forgotten my password).

My son has a classmate whose little brother is named Jaxon. I find it pretentious, but then I'm not crazy about the family, so that could color my opinion (oh, I sound like Paula!).

I think the nuts and bolts and screws were there for him to use.. doubt if he brought them in himself, but he did use them effectively. I've seen them used on QVC in the past, though.

I don't find Stephen overall that likeable, BUT, he was in this episode.

And while I'm no fan of Omarosa, one person after another is finding PIERS to be the hard one to work with, not Omarosa. Vinne, Stephen, Lennox, Omarosa.. and I think Tito has made a comment or two.

I would prefer that Piers and Omarosa work together and do a little murder/suicide deal.

LOL, well Piers and Sharon Osbourne came close to that when they worked together and of course they got to work with David Hasselhof.

Sea, you're right... the vendor of the product would've brought the stuff to sweep up. And nuts/bolts always make "good TV."

I'm not a Stephen fan at all. I might like him a bit more if he'd leave his religion at home.

And I totally agree... I'd rather work with Piers (or even ten Pierses) than Omarosa.

Tito and Lennox have not shown any effective leadership skills. When Tito was PM he let Stephan and Piers run the show (and that is why they won, not because of Tito).

Sea you are very right, Piers is the one with the history of being hard to work with and not Omarosa... I am not sure how I'd do with Omarosa, but I sure know I would not want to work with Piers.

I really like Piers and have been a fan of his for a long time. He's like Simon Cowell. He speaks his mind and there's no guessing what he's up to. Omarosa is always scheming and manipulating. It's much easier to work with someone who is upfront and not afraid to speak their mind. Of course, I own businesses, so I probably am skewed that way. I have a lot to get done and don't want to waste time so I would love to have Piers on my team.

The problem with working with someone like Omarosa is that she is always trying to find some way to make you look bad, rather than accomplishing things that make her look good. It would be a terrible working environment.

Piers might be a little hard to work with but at least he is generally trying to get things done.

Well, I didn't say Omarosa was easy to work with, just that more people lately have had trouble working with Piers.

I think Simon has a greater range of emotions from snarky and hurtful to genuinely supportive and sweet (lol, when he sees a puppy, in Africa, with many of the singers when he's being supportive).

Piers, not so much. He's mean to the kids who are competing and the parents, he's rude with that buzzer (this on his other show).

Simon and Piers (and Omarosa) are playing their expected roles, though.

Jim I see her doing that with adversaries but I also see her congratulating people and supporting people. She's a little bit manic in doing it but she does and we've also seen her softer side with those kids she works with. She really related to them and they loved it (this was on Surreal Life).

And I don't want to work with either one of them.

(I want to work with Sharon).

Let's see, Simon vs Piers? I'll take Simon for sure! (while we're at it, I love Sharon too!!) How about Simon, Sharona nd Omarosa!

Omarosa graduated from Central State University here in Ohio, well actually near Dayton Ohio. I hate their plugs for their uni, they always use Omarosa as one of their successful graduates, it makes me cringe.. I don't live near there but get their channels where I live (about an hour and 20 mins away). Oh, and it's one of those universities that is predominately black, I have never seen a white person used in their commercials. But to be proud of Omarosa..ackkk..

I think Trace is so laid back, but he gets the work done and Trump is impressed by him.

Now onto the issue who I would rather work with: definitely Piers, at least he is not a reality show wannabe, he has had real jobs etc.. plus being an Aussie I would understand his humor etc..lol

Aussie, what about if the choices were Piers and Simon?

Also, I agree, I think using Omarosa for a spokeperson is a bad bad choice!!! Don't they have any other grads with a more positive reputation than her?

Finale prediction: Male vs. female. Can't be Omarosa, gotta be Carol. Can't be Stephen (he was gonna quit, DT doesn't like quitters) ... can't be Piers (too many personality conflicts, lost his cool) ... gotta be Trace, Tito or Lennox. I would put my money on Tito, though I am rooting for Trace.
