Darn, Hotlantan, I missed the best part of your post!! But I can imagine what it was. She and Omarosa need to start looking inward alittle more before they trash everyone else (not that Amy isn't giving them plenty of ammunition!).

I like Amy... personally I think Katrina is a catty nightmare. Amy was the star AND had the guys' attention - boo hoo hoo. Katrina wasn't successful at either. Let's pretend there's something WRONG with Amy & spew to the cameras every chance we get, eh Katrina?? That makes you a much better person

Yup, I'm so glad they let "unclassy" Heidi go and kept "classy" Katrina a couple of weeks back. No wonder DT fired her. She probably can't even spell "unprofessional."

You know, I liked Amy until this past week. Her attitude when they were negotiating the car, her expression when she found out her team lost... She definitely didn't act very professional making all those faces during Katrina's negotiating (flirting?). And I thought she swallowed a lemon when she found out she was going to the board room.

I agree... I think she'll be kept until there are only 3 left. For purely "TV" reasons!

Honestly, I didn't notice Amy's face looking any different than anyone else's when she lost & had to go to the boardroom. And I sympathized with her re the car negotiation - I thought her points to the camera were valid & don't blame her for stepping in & taking over... I think she needed to to 'save' the negotiation (albeit not the best idea)

I agree though that she didn't exactly come across as endearing in these situations... I wasn't thinking 'wow, look at Amy's grace' like I half expected. But she was no worse than anyone else imho, probably still handled things among the best I thought. All of their faces look unhappy when they lose, and hers is no different. In fact, I think Donald would have held it against her if she DIDN'T look bothered... remember his 'How does it feel to lose? I don't like to lose - do you?'

Another reason why I think she may have noticeably 'puckered' btw :-) was the scary way Donald seemed to relish giving her bad news. It made me cringe

Buggles, you missed Amy's compulsive swallowing. Looking at her gave meaning to the expression eating crow. She was almost apoplectic

Sorry, I forgot to get out my magnifying glass LoL Don't they all look that way, especially their first time? Maybe it's just me. I will look harder next time

Amy was swallowing a mile a minute. I dont have anything against her but I have to admit I found it fun to watch the cool calm and collected Amy in the hot seat. She had never been in the boardroom before and it was fun to watch.

Ooooh you're evil Maris!! I imagine most people probably felt the same. I think Amy was probably scrutinized more closely than the others & held to a different standard because of her previous infallibility. We all were probably watching for her reaction on some level. I don't doubt the swallowing & will watch out for it next time

You all forget that we are being manipulated by people who are masters at it - if we are being set up to dislike Amy after weeks of her being one of the favorites there is a reason...and it will be revealed in the next three weeks!

Personally I think some of you are being a bit harsh about Amy. So she messed up one week in all these weeks, so what? She has performed beautifully before, had great ideas (ads on pedicabs for instance), worked hard, etc. Of course she wasn't sure how to act in the boardroom since she hadn't been before (and no one bothered to tell her anything about their trips???). Give the gal a break!

On INSIDE EDITION, Katrina stated that plenty of companies have contacted her about possible employment. If this is true, Amy should have no problem getting a great job with a top firm, should she get fired, of course.

I am still not convinced of Amy's loss of composure-- I think there were multiple shots of Amy culled from only one or two but edited to replay multiple times to show her at the height of nervousness...hence the constant swallowing. I will re-watch on CNBC to determine in MB was enhancing the moment...

I think the thing that bothered me the most about Amy was that she just plain lied about who came up with the rental idea. And, Nick sat there like a lump. At least Kwame and Troy have owned up to their ideas, good or bad.

ITA Pirate. That is what bothered me the most about Amy last week as well. It wasn't that she lost or her behavior it was that she lied about the rental idea.

What about drove me nuts is she used the classic line of a four year old, "I don't remember." COME ON! In the business world, or at least my small end of it that screams "ME BUT I DON'T WANNA OWN UP TO IT." The rest of the show, okay, she came up with a non-winning idea. It happens. But when Donald Trump out right ask you, to say I don't know really bugged me! And she lost my vote for favorite at that point.

The really dumb thing about it too is that it hasnt occurred to her or anyone else that The Donald looks at the tapes? He just set her up to see what she would say. He knew it was her idea and when it is her time again on the hotseat he will bring it up.

But Katrina also said that she didn't remember. If I were Katrina and my behind was in the hotseat, you bet I would've spoken right up! Wonder why she didn't??

Because the Donald usually reams people when they attack others. He wants you to stand up for yourself but dont attack your leader. lol. It hasnt worked very well for the attacker.

Even taking that into consideration, though, Maris...Katrina was more than willing to discuss Amy's personal relationship with Nick. It just doesn't make any sense that she didn't just say it was Amy's idea. It wouldn't have been "attacking." It would have been stating fact. She's obviously not very bright. Best she's gone.

I agree that the worst part was Amy not owning up to it being her idea. DUH! cameras were rolling!

I also think she hurt herself in the longrun...if I was looking to hire her and had seen this show I would know she doesn't own up to something if it isn't in her best interest. Not a good thing.

Troy, owns up to his mistakes and learns, a much better quality
