Women won resturant competition, but the show has only been on for 35 minutes. Seems early to start firing process.

Women's reward is to play golf at Trump's golf course in NY. Showing scenes of them golfing (or attempting to!).

Trump shows up to talk with them. Calls them on the carpet about relying on their sexuality to win. About time!

Guys are all gunning for Nick to go at the board meeting. Nick blames Kwame and Troy. Kwame chooses Bowie and Nick to go with him before the Donald.

Next week. Teams are reshuffled. "Surprising betrayal that even shocks the Donald."
Bowie leaves with a very classy speech from the limo.

You know what this show needs? A third team.

I'd like to see the guys do their thing, then the gals do their thing, then have Trump send in his own team to show how it is really done as a demonstration. (or how much the teams really have little effect in the end).

Good lord, the women win yet AGAIN?????

I hope next week they finally mix it up with co-ed teams. They actually have to do something, since it's now 8 to 4, and there is no way the men can compete equally with so few numbers. I suspect they'll split up into two teams -- 2 men and 4 women on a team. Or maybe 3 teams of 4? Or 4 teams of 3...? <grin>

I would have done exactly what Nick did which was distance himself as much as possible from the get the autograph scam.

I also thought the women should have been penalized because the General Manager told them to stop shoving booze at people and also that nobody drinks on the job.

I am beginning to actually feel sorry for Donald because whoever wins Donald is going to have to hire someone just to keep an eye on the winner or he could end up with a lawsuit.

He basicly thanked Trump for the experience. He was also glad to be gone before the men were down 8-0!

He also said that everybody should send me $5.00 :-)

Dahli... Bowie's words were (this is parphrased)He really wishes he could have won a reward. Being shut out by the girls makes it a bad experience, but he's glad he's leaving now instead of later if the guys keep losing. He thinks they will all still be close because of the experiences they all went through together. He thanks Trump for the time and experience and looks forward to working with him one day.

it was the best one yet - no way to tell what would happen- i thought the men started off better but fell apart and didnt execute in the right places- i was disappointed in the autograph rouse, but equally, if not more, disappointed in the women drinking on the job - you NEVER do that as a professional... not like that ...

It often feels to me like these are more like summer students than executives. I'm not sure if it is their antics, or the dorm living environment, or just the tasks at hand, but I expected a lot more from them when I read their bio's.

I agree, Croosfire!

After reading their bios and then seeing them in action, you'd think they weren't the same people.

On another note:

I was disappointed that Carol simply said re: using sex, "You won't get hired with this company if you do that" (or whatever). They showed that in the previews! Couldn't she have elaborated on it?

And on Extra, DT himself said women have used their sexuality to do business with him and it worked. So obviously it's a ploy he's comfortable with.

Is anyone else getting bored with this show? I find myself recording it, watching the beginning, fast forwarding through the "task" (only stopping to watch the women bicker) and then watch the very end. The rest of it is really boring.

Will Survivor be on opposite this show starting next week?

Scorpio...no Suvivor will be an hour earlier up against Friends and Will&Grace. The apprentice will be up against CSI.

I dont know if I will make it to the end either. This show is not about getting ahead in business and people competing for a business slot. I dont like any of the women on the show and I dont much care for the men either. When one of the women said it was embarrassing for Donald Trump to say we were using our sexuality. Yet they had no problem putting on skinny tshirts, short skirts and offering to "hook up" their male customers. The men taking advantage of kids like that and signing footballs was pretty disgusting. This show is going to have to step it up to get out of the gutter.

I am totally bored with this show. I started out loving it, but when the women turned into a bunch of and the men so whimpy,I lost interest. This is the best of the best??? Scary!
Donald should fire all the women and most of the men! I'm not a business person-a teacher- but even I can see this!

I hope the kids who bought the footballs with faux-athlete Kwame Jackson's signature will find a way to demand a refund. Scamming adults is bad enough, cheating the kids was pretty raunchy.
