Did you ever wonder what would happen if a recapper had a stroke during the show?

Boy, watching Allie and Roxanne and their creepy, creepy friendship made me miss the days of Troy and Kwame. Those two were a class act. These two are just creepy.

Heh. Sean or Lee. Poor Jacob.

I'm pretty sure I saw that chef's outfit on 'The Fifth Element'

Once again, the women didn't understand the task and they didn't understand their market. Did I REALLY hear Allie say she didn't care about FUNCTIONALITY. Did she listen to the execs? DId she listen to the employees? They went in completely the wrong direction. There was a certain thrill in watching them stutter over each other in trying to avoid taking responsibility for anything...

If Lee tells us once again that he IS the audience. I'm going to have that stroke myself....

Well, I frankly forgive Trump all his past wrongs, since he got rid of those two dreadful creatures. And plus, his children are so delightful! I may have to start liking him just a little.

Good riddance witches, but I hate the double firing because one should have really seen the other move on. I am so bitter Trump robbed me of that gloating.

Ivanka RULES! She chewed Allie up like Bubbilicious.

Roxanne fondling Allie the night-before-boardroom – ewh ewh ewh! Allie just lay there playing possum. Honestly I think Roxanne is head over heels in love with her.

That was weak. About 1 minute into the task, it was obvious that Allie and Roxanne were going to lose and that they'd both be fired. Good grief.

Allie's cab ride to delusionville: We wanted Trump to not fire either of us. The fuck? God, I am so glad the cloven part II is gone. I really liked Sean's interviews about how much they sucked- I agree, the Synergy uniforms were not anything I would want to wear, or even really look at. Then Sean had to go and talk about having babies with Tammy. I had to start not liking him again after that.

Of course, this means that Sean and Lee are the F2, and that just seems wrong.


I knew I recognized them from somewhere!

Also, Trump's kids rock. I wish they would ditch him and just have the two of them be on the show, but then I remembered that I am beyond over this show and really don't care what happens next season.

That was the most annoying bickering I have ever heard in the boardroom, men or women, and I just wanted to stick chopsticks in my ears. But the payoff was a home run......Adios to both of you !!

May I be the first to say: Ding, dong, the witches are dead!

Great firing in what turned out to be my favorite episode of the season so far.
Rule #1 of business and law--the judge/customer is always right.
Corollary to rule #1--get to know the judge/customer.
Application of rule #1 to this task--don't put cooks in peach outfits, or bellmen in Matrix trenchcoats, or front desk personnel in something out of Gays in Space.

Wow. Must unjust double firing ever.

I can't fucking believe fucking Lee and fucking Sean are the fucking Final Two. That makes me want to vomit. Because it's fucking Lee and fucking Sean.

Also, note how, once again, Lee did not win because he was PM. Someone else did the work for him. I hate him.

*Sigh* Fucking Sean has this in the bag. Partially because fucking Lee sucks, and partially because fucking Sean doesn't suck as much. But, let's be honest, any of the previous Final Two candidates could probably destroy these two. Hell, some of the people who didn't even make the Final Two are better than these two nimrods.

What the hell kinda task was that?!? I swear I thought I was watching a clash episode of Project Runway, America's Next Top Model, and The Apprentice all rolled into one. Since when do Apprentices have to know fashion design?

Really, I expected Santino Rice and Miss J to just jump out of a box with Ashton Kutcher and tell the final four "You just got Punk'd, bitches!"

I laughed my ass off when I saw Synergy had Marc Bouwer as their designer! Somewhere in a strip club in the midwest, ANTM 3's Cassie is having herself a great laugh.

Oh, and Roxanne's lies and delusions were killing me tonight. Good riddance! Woot!

Those had to be some of the ugliest uniforms I have ever seen. Can you just imagine some of those poor ladies in those peach monstrosities. The skirt for the front desk was the only decent thing synergy had, but definitely prefer Gold Rush's idea.

Sean and Lee final two. I would never have predicted that in a million years.

Bye bye Roxanne and Allie.

Oh, that was such bullshit! And I don’t say that because I’m this big fan of either Roxanne or Allie. I say that because the girls both tried to play nice and Trump didn’t want to see any of that. He and Ivanka (especially Ivanka with her telling Roxanne that she keeps using the words “I think”) instigated the cat fight, then he turns around and says that he didn’t like how the loss pit two friends against each other. What the fuck ever.

Although, I will say that their designs were not at all useful. Allie so doesn't know what it means to listen to what the consumer wants; she's the feakin' Tiffani of the show.

Is that what happened, Jacob?

Talk about foreshadowing. The spiel from Trump about friendship and business not mixing... I saw the double firing from miles away.

Well, Sean, looks like you're it. Lee is too inexperienced (and too political) for the job.

All in all, a very predictable episode.

DAMN, that boardroom was painful to watch. Not quite as bad as Alla/Felisha last season, but still. Allie's nose should have grown three feet that day from all the lying. I HATED when they started trash-talking over each other, and this happens every. single. season.

Sean (that smug bastard!) was on fire tonight. From the time he said (Roxanne) "looked like a fruit sundae" to "Dynasty called. They want their shoulder pads back!" I knew this was his task. Not to mention, he really knew his shit with the designing. Who knew?

But the best line of the night was from Lee--"I guess a metrosexual is...not a homosexual, and not a heterosexual...it's somewhere in-between?"

But just to balance out the universe, I really hope that Tammy was somewhere, watching the show with her boyfriend, laughing her ass off.

I'd pay cash money to see Trump "wearing a pink robe" with a "big glass of milk and a cheeseburger".

I love the hell out of Ivanka Trump.


Let the weeping begin.

Trump, you have no mind. Now, I've disagreed with the reasoning for each firing after Charmaine/Tarek, but this is the worst firing hands-down. Allie lost the task! Roxanne...didn't! She was the voice of reason! "Fashion over function"???!!!?!?!? You're fricking kidding me. As soon as she said that, she was fired. Your reasoning sucked, Trumpy. Of course they were going to go after each other! Ivanka said to Roxanne to be decisive, so she was! Not to mention the design sucked. Fashion over function when fashion is zero...well, that certainly says something about function.

Ew, Lee or Sean as the Apprentice? Erm, I don't want to say this...but go Sean. Even with overusing "wanker" and the airboxing and the patriotic tasks being all about him...oh, I'd better shut up or I'll feel even more guilty about wanting him to win. I feel nauseous enough as it is having said "go Sean".

And what the hell is the connection between Trumperfume and this challenge?

ETA:


Umm, what elements of the Apprentice did you see in this task? Oh, right, Trump being mindless. And the fact that there was a task having nothing to do with business. My bad.

And shut up about "letting the cat out of the bag". Everyone on the planet knows that Sean <3 Tammy.

And why couldn't Austin Scarlett and Andrae Gonzalo have been the fashion designers? Anyway, what happened to Andrae?

Yes, that was disgusting with Roxanne and Allie on the bed. Gross.

Allie is so stupid it's amazing she knows who she is.

Yawn. If one of the girls had spent the whole time in the boardroom farting and burping they both still would have been fired. It's like Burnett & Co. thinks we've never seen this show before or something.

I hated the final four. Hate even more the final two. It's Lee's to lose - it was his to lose from day one. Yawn.

I never thought I'd be so happy to see a Sean/Lee F2. Those women make me ashamed to have a uterus.

Although I have to thank them for their *lovely* fashions, for I really needed a laugh today.

Can Trump just hire Ivanka and get this all over with? Girl is awesome.

Oh, and PS - who wants to bet that Tammy wants nothing to do with Sean once all this is over? I almost feel sorry for the guy and his diamond.

I guess it's going to be Lee, isn't it? *sigh*

Mmmm....that was delicious. A well-deserved double firing. Allie should have gone a long time ago, but at least she didn't make F2. They really did dissolve into a back-biting puddle of shit. And Roxanne can't see Allie for the bitch she really is. At least the two guys know how to work together.

Did Allie really say that style was more important than function? And she thinks she can be The Apprentice? What a twit!

Damn. I have to say, I didn't ever really think it would happen. I know Trump's a sexist, misogynistic, chauvinist asshole. I accept that. I watch this show anyway, if only for the moments (so blessed! so few!) when he tunes back into reality, and boots someone for thoroughly rational and justified reasons.

What a disgusting prick.

Exhibit A: Troy and Kwame. Arguably closer friends than Roxanne and Allie. As I recall, they remained friends despite making their respective cases to the T-dog why the other should be fired. They got a deservedly nice edit, and Troy was booted, no especially hard feelings for anyone.

Exhibit B: Alla and Felisha. Now, that's attacking each other. That's vicious.

What Roxanne and Allie did was described well in their cab ride, I thought. They realized at least one of them was going to have to go, and they tried to make it be the other one. That is the name of the game, Donald.

Shithead.

Always nice to see Greasy-Haired Prick Marc Bouwer of ANTM fame lose out to some no-name with Matrix hair.

After watching the episode, I can't believe that anybody preferred Allie and Roxanne's designs. I would quit if I had to wear those to work every day.

Horrible boardroom yet.
Allie was the reason they lost the task not Roxanne. Trumpster what were you thinking? Just because they are friends, doesn't mean they cannot tell you what went wrong. It was your own fault that they argued. If I was against a friend in the boardroom I'd want to go down with a fight.
Even worse than this boardroom, is that Sean might win the Apprentice.
Bloody Hell.

Ah, sweet validation. I LOVED hearing Ivanka's outright ENDORSEMENT of Tammy! Guess we'll be seeing my girl again, and I am so ecstatic because those smug eyesores Allie and Roxanne are no more!!

Hooray!!

Hot diggity damn!

I didn't like Roxie one bit last week, so I can't say I was sorry to see her go. She was doomed when Trump gave her the question with only one right answer: Would you have won if you'd been Project Manager? There is absolutely no way to answer that question -- in the context of this game (and it's a game, not an interview) -- but "yes." Of course Alli got her panties all twisted but if she thought about it, what was Roxanne supposed to say? "Oh no, Mister Trump, we would have definitely lost if I'd been PM!" Alli's a nasty little viper.

I LOVED how Ivanka was having none of Alli's excuses. Clearly she wanted Alli gone the week before and she was all over her like white on rice. I admit it - I have a girl crush on Ivanka. She looked amazing every time she was on camera. So hope she replaces Carolyn the Sphincter Queen! Even Don Jr. was great fun at the dinner. But Ivanka and George - young and experienced Viceroys - what a great pair!

I'm thinking it's gonna be Sean. Lee has been painted too broadly with the "politician" brush and clearly, Sean won this task for him.

Perhaps his father or grandfather had a tailor business on Savile Row.

Or he's very metro, as everyone was eager to point out.

Ugh, this show is full of it. They constantly reward that kind of behavior and then when it suits them, they punish it. I cannot believe it's down to Lee and Sean. When it comes down to who to hire, Trump, the answer is 'none of the above.' I have to agree that Trump's kids are unexpectedly awesome, especially Ivanka.

Those two were awful! Do they seriously have that bad of taste? What the hell were they thinking with those uniforms? It looked like Embassy Suites: 3010. They must have personal shoppers for their own wardrobes, because no way could anyone who dresses well put that craptacular design together. And for Pete's sake learn the name of your designer. Allie should have been fired for that alone!
I don't understand the Sean hate. I adore him. He's been my pick since day one.
Also, Ivanka rocks. DJ too. I have to give some props to TD for raising such normal kids. I hope they're as real in person as they are on the show. Ivanka needs a new personal shopper though. I love her (she's my girl crush), but her wardrobe is awful. With all that money you'd think she would dress better. Her clothes are nice (and probably ridiculously expensive), but they're too old for her!

This is such a joyous night because now there are two less harpies on the show. Both Allie and Roxanne deserved to be fired for their classless behavior in the BR. I couldn't stand either one of them and I'm glad Trump fired them both. Now I'm eager to see how both Lee and Sean will perform on their respective final tasks. Sean has more votes than Lee right now. However, that might change if Sean royally screws up on the final task (I hope not). We'll see what happens on the next episode.

I cracked up at the horrified, straight-armed maid getting a bear hug from Lee.

A question for the women out there: If a guy you barely know fantasizes on national TV about having your babies, is that considered cute flirtation? Wait, I know the answer - it's frickin creepy.

This episode was boring, albeit not too much.

I thought Synergy had an advantage. Every other fashion-related task has been won by women's teams. But man! Allie bombed it royally! And as much as I love Roxanne -- and always will -- she messed up, too, for not doing anything about Allie's mistakes. I don't know if Trump fired both of them just to skip the interviews and go to the final two right away, or if it was truly because of how they attacked each other. Whatever the reason, I'm fine with it. They both deserved it, for the reason Trump fired them and more!

I'm perfectly fine with this final two. For the third season in a row, both of them are people I like. There's no clear-cut winner from either of them. Lee has three Project Manager wins, but a loss. Sean has a perfect record of 2-0. If I had to pick one, I'd pick Sean, but Lee would also be nice.

Okay, I can totally buy the girls' losing, & even the double firing; gawd, how could they have forgotten that they were supposed to please the customer/E.S. employees, not recreate them? And that putrid peach. Roxanne, why, oh why, weren't you more vocal during the task about your concerns?

But Sean in the finals? That lower-class accent has driven me nuts from the beginning. Guess he thinks that we Yanks think any sort of British accent is mesmerizing. Wrong.

Happily, I am no longer this show's bitch; moving on the Top Chef finale Wednesday night. And no, I'm not Tiffani's bitch either.

I honestly thought that Roxanne and Allie were deliberately throwing the competition when I saw those outfits. Did the chef have short sleeves? I think the doorman did, too...with those awful aqua cuffs. How did those make any kind of sense for a professional setting? The only OK design was for the front desk. Culottes for the maids? Maids can't pair culottes with a nice heeled boot and a bolero jacket - they need to wear comfortable walking shoes that would make culottes look like the frumpiest thing ever. I think Marc Bouwer must have been rolling his eyes tonight.

Exactly. The show sucked ass in more ways than I can count. It's official. This show has jumped the shark and I am done with it. I'm not watching the finale, don't care who wins, hope never to see the hair again.

Brokeback Boardroom came to mind when I saw that.

I have to say I would have liked that reward. The Trump siblings are so down to earth. Could you imagine if that was dinner with Bill Rancic? The only this is you would have to block out the fact that DT is their father.

Thank you, DT, for saving us the pain of the interview part at the end. It was useless anyway, as you always knew who was going.

Did anyone else think that the RonaPhone tonight was more like 1-976-RONA? Her phone voice seemed a lot softer talking to Sean.

To my fellow Canadians: Did you notice the Excel ticker at the bottom of the screen? How is it that Allie and Roxanne are in DT's radar due to the loss, but the text votes showed Lee more in danger of being fired than Roxanne?

Ha! The harpies got fired, just like Alla/Felisha. Now that's funny.

I do agree that it probably was unecessary though. Trump probably could have spared Roxanne. It really was Allie who ran the whole thing into the ground. Then again, I don't remember Roxanne ever expressing her concerns. And she defintley wasn't telling the complete truth in the BR. In the end, I don't care. I gave up on this being a serious show a long time ago. So, I'm going to enjoy the fact that those two got fired.

I'm not saying Lee/Sean are "great", but I do think they did a good job on this task. They realised that comfort and functional is more important then "looking trendy." And I did love Sean a bit for bashing the Coven in the interviews. I bet he really loved doing that. And he did play a big part on the them geting destroyed. And it was all for Tammy! Aww!

Ivanka rocked the BR. Especially when she chewed out Allie. I especially loved Donald Jr.'s smirk during it. Sort of like "Go Sis! Kick her ass!" Those two are pretty awesome. I guess Trump did one thing right. He spawned two children that are pretty cool.

Allie and Roxanne were two of the closest people Trump ever saw? Huh? Trump, have you completely forgotten about Troy and Kwame? Those two two were a lot closer then Allie/Roxanne. At least they didn't bond by simply bitching people out.

Did they say that the F2 will get to pick their workers, just like last season? If so, I defintley believe that Tammy and Lenny will be returning. Sean's loves Tammy, and Lee... sort of loves Lenny. I can't wait to see those two again. But I'm wondering who else will be selected.

Sean vs. Lee. Who knows which one of these two will manage to be less sucky then the other one. I'm guessing Sean will win, since the viewers probably likes him more then Lee. And if he wins, he could be the first metrosexual Apprentice. Heh, that's another minority Trump can had to his list.

Donald, upon further reflection, I'm so disappointed. Before your show started losing...losing, I hate that horrendous word...I'm so disappointed...you and Martha were so close. You two were the closest! You were yooge friends. But then you lost. And then you turned on each other. Martha's show failed. You were the executive producer. And yet you turned on her, Donald! That shows an incredible lack of loyalty. Donald, you're fired.

Out, Donald! Damned spot!

They don't really have to know fashion design in order to figure out what the employees would feel comfortable wearing and the basic gist of what's appropriate. That's why they used designers to create the uniforms. I think Alle and Roxanne's problem was they really did not think through what their goal was.

I too am pretty baffled by the double firing. What does Trump expect Roxanne and Alle to do? Should they not say critical things about each other when they are fighting for their lives for the job. I think it would have made sense to fire both of them if they had not fought hard enough in the boardroom because of their friendship. In business you cannot let a friendship dictate everything(which Trump in fact said in his little speech earlier in the episode). Besides, the fighting really wasn't personal to any serious degree. I think Trump and Burnett probably wanted an extra episode to have Lee and Sean compete and against each other and thought no one would care if an extra firing defied any logic.

Synergy's outfits were horrible. HORRIBLE! That peach-colored shiny stuff, what the hell? What were they thinking? I can't believe Allie's attitude with the designer, and her shrill voice. I honestly had to mute the TV when she and Roxanne were in the boardroom.

But I didn't like how Trump was all "No loyalty!" when they started defending why they should stay. I mean, it's like, one of them had to go, and they both wanted to stay, and I don't think they were being that unreasonable. It's not personal, it's just business, after all, right Trump?

Sean's and Lee's outfits were professional and classy on the other hand. They looked like nice hotel uniforms, not space-age waiter suits. I still can't believe they're the Final 2 though. At the beginning of the season I was pretty sure one of the girls was going to win and I even thought that up until Tammy was fired last week. But during the Wal-Mart/X-Box task and this episode's task, Allie and Roxanne might as well have had devil horns and tails digitally edited in during post-production, that's how evil they looked. Lee and Sean look like saints by comparison.

Is it wrong that I was completely CHARMED by Sean tonight? His disappointment over Tammy's ouster, his goofiness about her, wanting to give her his diamond and greatest of all him blowing her a kiss when Synergy crashed and burned. Speaking of ..

Rarely have I enjoyed watching the disintegration of a team as much as I enjoyed watching the BRILLIANT cockup created by Allie and Roxanne. It was fabulous! Those outfits were spectacularly horrible. Every single part of them -- there wasn't one redeemable quality. Again: BRILLIANT!

That reward was the greatest ever. Good Lord Ivanka is gorgeous -- and not just on the outside. She's got brains and poise as well and can I tell you how wonderful it is to see a beautiful woman who isn't a stick with no boobs? She's just the best. And Don Jr. wasn't to bad either.

Seriously! Buh-Bye ladies. Have these two ever worked any job that required a uniform? And if so, do they remember what it was like? Just because you have "niche" designer (by the way - Allie calling Marc Michael: hee-freakin'-larious) does not mean you should (all together now) LOSE TOUCH WITH YOUR CORE CUSTOMER (EMPLOYEES)! It's Emabassy Suites for chrissakes - not the freakin' Ritz Carlton (or any W for that matter, or Trump property). These people work hard, and want attire that allows them to do so. This is not fantasy island, or Americas Next Inappropriately Dressed Hands-on Employee. What happened to these two women who could not get this? I'm speechless: two metro/hetero man-boys (cause seriously, I can't call either of them men, can you?) out-design two dumb ass chicks (after tonight) who presented uniforms that would be more appropriate in a sexual fantasy than real life application? A green feather duster with the maid outfit - are you kidding me?

Then, after the implosion, the pitiful reversal of supportive co-PM's to FUCK YOU BITCH AT FULL SPEED, IT'S ME OR DIE desperation was just, sad. They both deserved to go, and alot sooner that it took Trumpy to do so - on and on and on and on....ENOUGH! I sure hope the manboys didn't stay up too late waiting for lone woman walking.

The ("West Coast/L.A.) version of this franchise better bring it, or it's lights out for Trumpy.

A VERY rewarding episode!! A+!! I loved to see how the bitches exploded in the boardroom and revealed their real faces. Especially Roxanne. What a disgusting little liar. I am friends with Allie, I will never go against her in the boardroom! It is not worth it! (I bet Allie was eavesdropping close by). Then--fire her, Mr. Trump, she is worthless!! Then, in the cab--Allie is my best friend! We would never go against each other! We kept our dignity! Yeah...


I would think so too, the only thing Tammy seems to be thinking about is her "career" (remember the Bacharach episode?). On the other hand--if Sean will be the next Apprentice, which is more than likely--that's certainly a good career move for Tammy? I still think Sean deserves much better, like a woman who really cares about him.

Come to think of it, there had to be a double firing tonight because there always has to be the traditional episode where next week thunder will clap, Lee or Sean will say, "There's no way I can win this now," and then they will go on to lose. It's happened every year. Omarosa and How can you lose a rock star, Jen and How dare Chris Webber (or whoever) cancel! Etc., etc.

I was distracted by the thought of the interviews. Guess they won't be happening this season.

At the beginning when the four of them were eating dinner, and Sean said he was so tired of listening to Allie and Roxanne, did anyone else think he was going to suddenly turn and stab Allie with his fork? They even showed a shot of him putting down his utensils and chewing really, really slowly while she nattered on in the background. I actually got goosebumps I was so sure it was going to happen.

I enjoyed the elevator operator getting a little more face time at the end.

Lee totally deserves to win. He might be the smartest player ever to be on the show. His instincts are always absolutely spot on. The guys won the task this week because Lee had the basic common sense to ask the employees what they wanted before they started designing anything. I can't remember the guy ever being wrong. He's constantly had to work with idiots and that means he sometimes has to tell them how stupid their ideas are, so I guess that makes him an asshole to some people (even though he's always been fucking RIGHT like EVERY FUCKING TIME).

Not only will Lee win, he'll completely deserve it.

LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

FINAL 2!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!


I'm so happy for him... (Lucky s.o.b. for getting on the show...) (I know him... so I have the right to call him that :) )

He attacked this task from the start - he knew exactly what had to be done. Right away: "We have to interview the staff - they're the ones judging us, not the executives"

Yes, Sean's metrosexual tastes helped a lot - but he would have dropped the ball if Lee wasn't leading him.

GO LEE!!!

I agree that Lee is awesome, but I'm wondering if his earlier-in-the-season coaching of Lenny on what Trump wanted to hear would have made the show if he were going to be the Apprentice. I think it's going to be Sean and that he will squeal like a girl when he's selected. And then Trump will ask him if Lee should be hired, Sean will say no, there should only be one apprentice, Trump will fire him for being disloyal, and Rebecca will be the new apprentice.

Yeah, it defintley look like creepy thoughts were going through his mind. Speaking of the scene, I couldn't believe Roxanne/Allie could not tell that they were pissing him off, whenever they brought up the BR and Tammy. Ever they really can't read a room, or they were defintley trying to upset Sean. Wouldn't be surprised if it was the latter, since they probably still haven't forgiven him for leaving their clic.

I actually agree that Lee played a big part in this win. He realised that it was all about the workers. Sean did play a big part, but I think both actually worked together well. Once again, I'm not saying they are "great", but I think they nailed this task. They did a lot better then Allie/Roxanne, that's for sure.
