» S4: Randal - The Only Apprentice Who Ever Apprenticed Options

[adrem]

Trump must've been expecting a lot more from Randal.

My feelings for Randal are much like they were for Kwame. I am more impressed with the way the other contestants view him than with a win/loss record. Plus, admiration and respect from the other people who are competing AGAINST you in a game is very hard to skew with editing. People always seem to be more forthcoming with criticism than praise on this show so that says a lot when a contestant is universally liked & respected by his competitors.

I also remember being angry with Kwame for not "benching" Assorama when she obviously lied and was making the task more difficult for him. I couldn't understand why Randal (who seemed so good at time management and organization before) seemed to need his whole team to buy party supplies. I'm very suspicious of TPTB on this show giving direction and/or suggestions during the tasks.

I guess my bottom line is that I don't really have a preference for whether Randal or Rebecca wins this thing but since I like Randal more as a person, I wish him the same fate as Kwame....to become even more successful on his own without having to be Trumpy's lackey for a year!

However, given the way TD spoke of Randal about his being lazy, clearly, the jerk does not deserve Randal. I hope Randal says, 'Mr. Trump, I really appreciate your hiring me. However, I cannot give my all to a person who clearly does not respect me and makes untrue statements about me to the public. But since I have signed a contract and don't have an option, I will bear with you for one year.' 

That would be so funny if he said that on live TV in the finals

Man, is this guy annoying! Interrupting, bullying, and then being kind of passive-aggressive. And to use a Seinfeld phrase, "speedtalker". His personal interaction skills really stink. He just seems a little boy at the grown up table.

I wouldn't have minded either winning but tonight he really pissed me off in the boardroom.

[Miss Alli]

Wow. Way to end a season of being really classy by being an ungracious, selfish dick. What the fuck skin is it off his nose if she gets an entirely different job? He stood to lose absolutely NOTHING. He lost every iota of respect I gained for him over the course of the season. What a low, shitty thing to do. God.

Thank God he won. He deserved it. And I'm glad he didn't bow to the pressure to bring Rebecca along.

[EmbiggenedSoul]

Well, that was unneccesarily unsportsmanlike. I don't think saying Trump should hire Rebecca as well would've taken away from his own glory at all - she probably would've gone to work for him, right?

[yaldani]

I just lost all of the respect I ever had for Randall

[strategy]

He's not that nice!!!!!

He slayed Rebecca......he denied her a second Apprentice seat. AAAHHHH ha ha ha, the man is no joke in business affairs.

[Wonka0217]

I agree, Miss Alli. Guess he wanted the limelight to himself. I was very supportive of him until his final moments. Now I'm back to looking down on most PhDs.

[perljam]

Unbelieveably ungracious. From cool to tool in 30 seconds. What an ass.

[shazzbutter]

Fuck. You. Randal.

How was awarding Rebecca an apprenticeship going to detract from his? He just made himself look really bad. And of Trump doesn't give Rebecca a position based on Randal's reply, well then he's a fucking pussy.

I never liked the dude!

[Wonka0217]

I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of his ass-ish behavior made the cutting room floor. A guy with that many degrees has to have an ego.

Interesting. I bet old Rebecca would've just said yeah, hire Randal on!! NOT!
