Ok, this is my understanding from my source,
This week-Net Worth-Angie/Chris/Alex
Magna- Tana/Bren/Kendra/Craig
Angie is fired
Next week, Net Worth picks Bren and it becomes
Net Worth-Alex/Bren/Chris
Magna-Tana/Kendra/Craig
Chris is fired
Then, you have Net Worth-Alex/Bren
Magna-Kendra/Tana/Craig
Bren is fired. Then you have the final four. I believe the teams are all done at that time and it is one on one against each other, but I will try to confirm that.

It's no surprise that Angie is going to be fired considering what they showed in the preview clip. As soon as she said, and I'm typing from memory here, "We're going to miss our/the presentation," I knew she was toast. She'd have to be the PM since she's the only female on the team and it's a fashion task, even if Alex is such a metrosexual. But thanks, Cooler. I, along with my fellow spoiler whores, appreciate your insider info.

The final two Kendra/Tana is going to be a tough choice. Kendra is a partner in a company where she was an employee, screwed the boss, then became partner. The problem is that his WIFE did not like that and filed for divorce. She is listed in the papers to be deposed, and that is a matter of public record, but I don't have the energy to do the research.
Stating all of this as fact can be dangerous. I/we don't know any of this to be true and have no way of determining its accuracy. Why believe the wife's petition? What was the husband's role? How stable was this marriage that was allegedly broken up? Was she otherwise qualified to make partner? So what if she is "listed in the papers to be deposed?" I realize truth is a
defense, but prima facie slander is made simply through making defamatory statements (in many jurisdictions - in others, falsity is an element of the plaintiff's case).
Still, if the story related here is true, I find that it would only add to Kendra's allure. Smart, dynamic, reasonably attractive women who may meander from the norm are irresistable.
I caution, however, that there could be a lot of circumstances that might be relevant to the whole story here. I could care less what the Apprenti have done - short of most felonies and more serious misdemeanors. As to private behavior, people will do what they will do.
Edited because "truth" does not equal "falsity."

It's ironic that Magna ends up, for the most part, being the "street smarts" and Net Worth ends up being the college grads.
As for Kendra, I highly doubt that The Donald gives a rip about anyone's romantic shenanigans, considering his own rather colorful history.

While I personally don't care about anybody's personal life, I do see the point. Donald was already a successful millionaire when he was in his scandal, not trying to get a job like Tana and Kendra (if you believe all the spoilers). If this story is true, there could be a lot of negative publicity, that's all.
After the "it's not rocket scientist" comment from Tana, I think he may just have to hire Kendra. That alone speaks volumes.

I can confirm Chris loses his mind this week. Cooler has the right firing order.
I do agree with the posters who disapproved of the Kendra rumor, which is stated as fact. Even if there were divorce papers, we don't even know if those were true. I find it all kind of hard to believe.

Except for one thing:
Angie has a singing appearence in New York scheduled for one week from tonight (April 11) that has been on there for some time, which you can see for yourself
on Angie's website. That would lead me to suspect Angie is "fired" this week due to the fact if she is, she can easily stretch out her appearences to include both Friday and Monday since she's going to be in New York next Monday anyway.

spin, are you saying that Chris goes this week or that he just loses his mind? Everything did seem to point to Angie leaving, especially that moment when Trump told Stephanie that she should have kept Angie in the BR. Trump seems desperate to get rid of her.
I guess this will be the "volcanic" eruption for Chris. So much for my hopes he could leave with a little dignity...

So... Alex/Tana PM this week, Alex/Angie/Chris lose, Angie is fired. To get fired over the PM and Crazy Chris, Angie must do something really bad to get fired, such as lose money (as others have suggested?) I know Trump has it in for her, but he would look like a jerk unless he has a foolproof reason for firing her.

Teams are usually (possibly always) required to select an accountant as well as a Project Manager. I think it's pretty clear that Net Worth's accountant is Angie. Entertaintment Weekly's TV viewing guide for this week says one team loses their money.

I agree with most of your answers, ghettofabman, except that for the first question, I think Chris will call Alex a "teacher's pet." I have a hard time imagining Chris saying "metrosexual," but "teacher's pet" sounds about right. Or maybe, a "politician," a class of people whom Chris probably despises even more than lawyers. Also, for question #6, I think Tana will be the person who says that she feels "untouchable" (I'm assuming that she's the PM for Magna and that they win again.)

This is not a guess. This is a spoiler:
Chris loses the credit card (and goes nuts, as a result). However, his volcanic eruption does not get him fired. Magna wins; Angie is fired.
I don't know any of the other answers for sure, but I feel strongly from a combination of spoilerish and non-spoilerish information that Magna wins because of thorough consumer research, that Trump says that Alex has become a loser, and that Angie chokes under pressure.
I am very undecided whether Tana or Bren decides he/she is untouchable.

Apr 4, 2005 @ 12:48 pm
Hey CheekyCricket (love the name, BTW), here was my logic with respect to questions 1, 3, and 6:
1. Although I agree with you on saying Chris calls Alex something more conservative like "teacher's pet" given Trump's favoritism of him, I get that shaking feeling that since Alex PMs a fashion task, Chris will feel inclined to use the word "metrosexual" since he is young enough to understand what the word means and knows when to apply its use.
3. I happen to think that the description of this question offered by NBCUMV.com was meant to confuse us. They want us to think that Chris loses it and Angie loses the seed money, but I think it is gonna be the other way around. Chris loses the seed money as indicated by this question and Angie is becoming more unhinged. She is SOOO not long meant for the Apprentice world.
6. I was thinking that this could go either way. Tana earned a win and an exemption for this week's task, while this IS the week of Bren's exemption. I get the feeling that either could say it, but I surmise that Bren is the one who says it given the fact that it is his exemption week. Tana has more grounds to say it, too. I am torn either way.

Apr 4, 2005 @ 12:50 pm
Sorry to disagree with some of your answers ther ghettofabman, but I think Chris will refer to Alex as a politician because Alex successfully read Trump and pointed his fingers at Stephanie as the one to be fired.
I also disagree with your pick for the reason why Angie was dismissed. I don't think Trump would ever say "failed in so many ways" but rather would go for the jugular with terms such as "choked". YMMV of course.

Magsi2, I really, really, REALLY want to see Chris screaming at Carolyn, but then that would mean he will be the one fired, and from the information we've collected so far, the bell is tolling for Angie. But maybe we're wrong, and we will be treated to the spectacle of tobacco-deprived Chris making that final colossal blunder . . .

I agree,

At least she didn't say "it's not rocket Scientology," as Audrey might have done . . .
I was just re-reading the NBCUMV preview blurb for episode #312, the automobile-promo task:
The task goes all night and both project managers have different experiences with their teammates as the task continues into the early morning hours.
Which expresses absolutely nothing, except that the teams stay up late. Either it's the most boring episode ever, or the promo writers didn't get to watch the episode before writing the preview.

Tegan Jovanka
Apr 4, 2005 @ 5:08 pm
If Chris goes crazy this week, then why wouldn't Alex say he "cracked under the pressure"? Angie seems a bit unhinged in the previews, so I think that this is Angie.
Chris I think refers to Alex as a politician, because Alex is so smarmy and he likes to use those type of tactics.
Bren says he's untouchable, because of the exemption. I can't see Tana calling herself untouchable.

I've been sorting out the information (spoilers and speculation) about the rest of the season; I'm confused between the different spoilers about the final 6 and final 4, since it seems like the ordering has not been exactly the same, so see if this makes sense:
This week, #311, American Eagle task
Magna: Bren (exempt), Craig, Kendra, Tana(PM)
Net Worth: Alex(PM), Angie, Chris
Magna wins (#6 in a row), Net Worth loses: Angie fired
Next week, #312, new auto promotion task
(This week's winning PM is guaranteed to be in the final 4)
Magna: Craig, Kendra (PM), Tana (exempt)
Net Worth: Alex, Bren, Chris(PM)
Magna wins (#7 in a row), Net Worth loses: Chris fired
Following week, #313, Office clutter-taming task (at Staples?)
Magna: Craig (PM), Kendra (exempt), Tana
Net Worth: Alex, Bren (PM)
Net Worth wins, Magna finally loses: Craig fired
Final four: Alex, Bren, Kendra, Tana
Most likely, Alex and Bren will be fired during the interviews: Kendra and Tana will be the finalists. (And, one or both of the final tasks likely are connected to NYC's bid to host the Olympics.)
I am curious to see if someone will manuever to be the PM for next week's task, since the winning PM will be in the final four. On Net Worth, there's not much of a choice, so on Magna, I am particularly curious to see whether Kendra or Tana will get that spot. If Tana is this week's PM, then Kendra will be sitting in the catbird's seat. If Kendra is this week's PM, then the lucky bird will be Tana.

ETA:
Celina's description is spot on btw.
Also this week's A&E task where the contestants are asked to incorporate technology into fashion is nothing more than creating clothing and accessories that hold laptops, cell phones etc according to The Apprentice Blog.
Did anyone else think that when they said "incorporating technology into fashion" that the contestants would have had to come up a new kind of fabric like Coolmax or incorporate microchips into shoes like Adidas 1? Cause I know I certainly did and wondered if these idiots would be smart enough to do that.
ETA: Sorry CheekyCricket, didn't mean to sound like anyone who doesn't know about the new frontiers in technology is an automatic idiot. It just that I believe that the contestants are idiots (in some respect or the other) and refer to them as idiots and couldn't fathom them creating new technologies for the fashion world in such a short period of time.

I'm not smart enough to do that, at least not in a day or two, so I guess I'm one of the idiots too. (For starters, I'd have to go back to college for more chemistry and maybe even some materials engineering classes.) So, no, I didn't expect anywhere near that much, although I thought they might be asked to design clothing using fabrics incorporating nanotechnology.

One interesting thing in the article was that they didn't have a firm date set as yet for the finale.
Also, in the TV Guide article that Miss Alli co-wrote (April 10 edition w/Gilmore Girls on the cover) TD says they're thinking about having the initial teams in a future TA be split by age. I think that was suggested a while back in the suggestion thread, wasn't it?

Here's the long show description from NBCUMV:
TIME RUNS OUT AS ONE TEAM GETS CLOTHESLINED DEVELOPING "WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY" FOR AMERICAN EAGLE OUTFITTERS ON NBC'S "THE APPRENTICE" (APRIL 7, 9-10PM ET)
Chris Proclaims Alex a Metrosexual
NEW YORK – April 6, 2005 – Down to just seven candidates, the pressure intensifies on NBC's "The Apprentice" (April 7, 9-10pm ET) as one candidate repeatedly exclaims "I think I'm going to throw-up." It's a race against the clock as the two teams struggle to create a new clothing line for leading lifestyle retailer American Eagle Outfitters (AE).
Armed with top-notch designers, each team must incorporate "wearable technology" into AE's Spring Collection. As Trump describes it, "put clothing with all the gadgets they are selling nowadays and insure that the clothing is gadget friendly." Candidates receive $5,000 seed money to spend on the latest gadgets featured at electronic giant Best Buy. Once the designs are complete, candidates manufacture the clothing and then present their wears to American Eagle executives for evaluation.
Chris, who was told to step it up by Trump last week, continues picking on Alex this time characterizing him as a metrosexual. "Alex is a self-proclaimed metrosexual which I think means that he is a male who embraces his feminine side more than other males."
One candidate suffers a panic attack and another loses a credit card all leading to a boardroom firing that stuns everyone involved.
Michelle Scarbrough, attorney to Mr. Trump, fills in for George Ross who is on a business trip.
Remaining Candidates:
"NET WORTH": Chris, Angie, Alex
"MAGNA": Kendra, Tana, Bren, Craig
Week 11 Exemption: Bren
"Like 'The Apprentice', AE is all about encouraging individuals to go after their dreams and live their lives to the limit," said Michael James Leedy. "Live Your Life" is a statement that reflects the spirit and values of the AE brand-authentic, individual, and real-and we are proud to help big dreams become reality for 'The Apprentice' candidates. Our alliance with the show is a natural partnership."
No photos so far this week. I wonder if that's an oversight or deliberate?

Yeah, right . . . that's almost as bad as this bit of hooey
Like 'The Apprentice', AE is all about encouraging individuals to go after their dreams and live their lives to the limit," said Michael James Leedy.
And here, I always thought that American Eagle was a maker of blah clothing and gear that looks pretty much like 80% of the clothing and gear out there, when in fact, they are actually all about self-fulfillment and self-empowerment . . .
Chris, who was told to step it up by Trump last week, continues picking on Alex this time characterizing him as a metrosexual. "Alex is a self-proclaimed metrosexual which I think means that he is a male who embraces his feminine side more than other males."
Good way to miss the point, Chris. Make yourself even more obnoxious--though, thanks for confirming the answer to the fantasy game question!

I guessed Prada originally, because I had heard Prada was angling to be a reward sponsor, and it fit with the brief description we had. Maybe we'll see Prada in a later episode, or in TA4, I guess. I'm sure Cooler is right about Bergdorf Goodman. Cooler is always right! I also think Cooler said that Bren would be switching teams next week, not this week. Magna wins, and Chris and Alex get Bren, leaving Kendra, Craig, and Tana.

If there's a task in episode #314, then that raises the possibility that there's no interview session this season, and that instead of the interviews, there's a double firing. Do we have any information indicating that there will be an interview round? I know we assumed it, based on the past two seasons, but if there's another task, I don't see how there could be interviews too: unless the "final four" becomes a "final three."

Thank you for clarifying Spindotdat. (I see some of these nicknames and I wonder what they mean, yours included)
My guess is it's going to be final 3 for interviews. I never liked him firing 2 people during interviews and I am crossing my fingers for this. It seems logical to me to have 3 in that phase, especially if 3 out of 4 nailed the interviews. He'd have to make up a reason to fire the 2nd person.
Since it is Craig or Alex (or Bren?) who will get fired I think it will be for the same reason Amy got fired; being fake, boring and only saying what's 'expected'. At this phase in their careers, interviewing shouldn't be difficult at all so the biggest way to screw it up is for those reasons.
Hasn't someone already spoiled Bren getting fired before the final four? I guess I need to read them again because I'm starting to get confused on what's been speculated vs. what's been told as possible truth.
Another possible on the ending episodes is having 3 in the final task. That would be quite different. Bringing back all of the ex-Apprenti and dividing them between the 3 and letting all hell break loose. But then you're back to what I said above, what if 2 people rock and he's basically making up a reason to fire a 2nd person. At that stage of the game, that's pretty controversial. He could always make the 2nd person the assistant. HA!
