YES!!!! Thank you Carolyn! And thank God I was wrong with my predictions! Now we don't have to endure Hiedi's potty mouth and the smug looks she gives everyone. Good riddance!

And also we don't have to look at those skimpy clothes that looked like she was going bar-hopping.

SM, I thought Kwame too. He did poorly tonight, as a leader during the art show, and also during the auction. He really is flying under the radar IMO.

Interesting... Wasn't Ereka fired for not taking her friend Katrina into the board room when she had done worse than Bill? Yet no one called Troy on taking Heidi in when she at least generated money and Kwame didn't.

It's funny. Last week when I saw the show for the first time, I made fun of Heidi's accent and her eyebrows. I called her accent a BQE [Brooklyn Queens Expressway] accent, but I was wrong and what's worse is that I should have KNOWN! It's a Philadelphia accent...and I'm a native, if expatrioted, Philadelphian! Thank god I don't have that accent. Or those eyebrows. There was a story about Heidi in today's Philadelphia Inquirer. Here is the whole article. Below is an excerpt. Local gal with the salty vocabulary still a player in The Donald's game She's aggressively flirtatious, has quite a mouth on her, and is willing to show cleavage if that's what it takes to close a deal. But give her this. Bubbly, profane Heidi Bressler, 30-year-old sales whiz and pride of Philadelphia, is still in the game. She's the only colorful character left on NBC's hit The Apprentice, the number-four show in the country last week, with an average viewership of 20 million people per episode. In a recent installment Bressler did a little dance while singing, "I'm a . I'm a ." In Internet chatrooms they say she has "a mouth like a sailor" and a "tawdry Bette Davis demeanor." Bressler is unapologetic. "Come on!" she says from her Center City apartment. "I never curse in inappropriate circumstances. Besides, people in New York curse all the time. My clients curse. Everyone in Philadelphia curses. Donald Trump curses like crazy." Bressler calls complaints that she and the other Apprentice women use sex appeal to get ahead "a load of crap." On the phone, she's the same upbeat speed-talker you see on TV. All that's missing are the frequent bleeps. Her salty language hasn't hurt Bressler, who names Howard Stern the person she most admires professionally. On The Apprentice, only seven players remain out of 16 over-achievers who strode confidently into Trump Tower on Jan. 8, dragging wheeled luggage behind them like pets. They came to compete for a $250,000 job with the pouting, pompadoured mogul Donald Trump - a position that will be offered next month, on the show's finale. [etc]

I missed it tonight. What happened that Heidi got fired? What did Trump have to say to her at the end? Was she getting on Carolyn's nerve?

Carolyn was very critical of Heidi's lack of ability as a potential leader. Heidi, responding aggressively as is her way, seemed to be talking back to Carolyn as opposed to standing up to her, and she was very nearly talking back to Trump.

Oh, and Trump had very good things to say about Heidi--that he liked her and saw her potential and talent, but he could not choose her to run his company. He didn't elaborate on anything negative.

Kwame survives another one, and in my opinion, he was the worst. I was surprised at the negative things Donald said to Troy. He saved his team during the auction. He picked the better apartment during his turn at PM. He's been the only one who make a positive impression on a losing team. But Mush Mouth also did not step up to the plate on this. She's the sales person. She could have wowed them with her savvy. I just don't think her heart was into it towards the end with all her personal worries.

This question might seem a bit naive, but this is really bothering me. Why do people, who have loved ones who have cancer continue to smoke? On the one hand, Hiedi is upset because of her mom's illness, yet there she is, smoking on the balcony. Doesn't dealing with cancer scare the crap out of smokers and make them consider quitting? From the 3-4 times we've seen Hiedi smoking, she seems to be pretty attached to her addiction. I'm truly not bashing Hiedi (this time). I just don't understand why a cancer scare doesn't have more of an impact on people.

From above article:

Well, any chance to gain respect from me has vanished completely. Howard Stern? Blech. Scorpio said:

Because "it will never happen to me." My mom had a stroke due to her smoking and alcoholism. She got home after 1 1/2 months in the hospital (with no cig or drink that whole time) and within 15 minutes of walking in the front door of the house, she had a cigarette lit up, and within an hour a drink in hand. She's now on oxygen...supposed to be 24 hours, but she only wears it at night cause she has a cig lit full time while she's up (at least she turns off the oxygen so she doesn't blow us up). Doesn't seem like its scared her straight, and she's the one who this is happening to.

I smoked for 19 years & knew the health risks. When I was diagnosed with a precancerous condition and became ill with another unrelated issue, did I actually quit smoking. Now I can't imagine *anyone* smoking, but I know while I did I wouldn't consider quitting. My mother only quit smoking when it became a choice between inhaling a breath or a smoke. My parents both died from smoking related lung ailments (cancer & emphysema) and my sister continues to smoke.

I would have gotten rid of Kwame. It seemed to me that Heidi was putting effort into it. Kwame described his effort as "I was ringing my bell". He is definitely an under the radar player. He and Bill strike me as being the most invisible players. Wouldn't it be funny if they ended up the final two.

While I was tired of Heidi's eye rolling, facial expressions, I was sorry to see her go immeadiately after "O". Does anyone know the time span between visits to the board room for firings ? I am thinking that BIll and Kwame are too lucky dudes, they need to be gone.

LOl Maris, I was laughing at that statement too. I think DT sees something in Kwame, I think one of his great qualties is complimenting his team, he is always supportive and giving praise.

I couldn't believe that Katrina was upset with Bill for using her "sex appeal" for the task when all the women were doing that during the first few shows.

I think Kwame's appeal to the Donald is that he has a lot of class. You could put Kwame in any environment and not worry that he will embarrass you or say the wrong thing. He is a great diplomat, does not get ruffled easily and most important, he never reveals what he is thinking.

Okay so now all this crap about Omarosa needs to go and now that she’s left the team still loses? LOL Guess she wasn’t what was holding them down after all. What was that Troy said “We’re going in as a team” Funny how that was ended quickly by Heidi. In that boardroom no one is a friend and saying that O made tension and strife in the team is a load since there’s only one position and DT said at the beginning “this is 3 month long interview.” Heidi's "speech" about her feeling that family was most important smacked of hypocrisy. Excuse me but if your family was more important than you should have left the show when you heard the news about you mom. C'mon now, I'm sorry but even if my parent wanted me to be on the game I wouldn't do it. I would have left as soon as I got the phone call. So she stayed in the game and got fired anyway. Wow what a waste of the time she could have been spending with her Mom. And that filmed trip to the hospital. Yeah there's no mistaking those Survivor folks for a good "emotional jerking" storyline. So now they've lost their "villain" (quickly being replaced by Katrina. And now that the "sympathetic" player is gone all they have left is the "romance" couple and "country bumpkin" (Although I think Troy has way more on the ball than to be slapped with this title but the production seems to have him labeled, at least his smart enough to use it to his advantage) I like the show but enough with the character creation and storyline manipulation already...can we get back to the freakin game! If I see that "romance" storyline one more time I'm gonna gag! I do take exception that the finale is live. Which seems to mean that the producers needed to see how the audience took the show first and who they liked so they'd know how the spin the end of the game. It was filmed in the summer it should have and ending already. If DT is supposed to get the final pick, why does it need to be live? This kinda crap needs to end with survivor. Just end the game like all the other shows, it’s not as if the audience won’t watch the next version of the game.

Well one advantage of a live finale is a live audience....so you can get their reaction to the final decision. I think Survivor does the smart thing by having it live, and I think the Apprentice will have the same reaction.
