PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,

posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out

encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.

Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue

In the suite...Kendra thinks it's Chris Tana/Craig think it's gonna be Bren gone... Tana: I think it's gonna be Bren, he's funny, but I've seen him on tasks and he's a big zero. Alex: coming back it's not the same, we've lost another task and a friend Bren: I feel like after this task I feel like whale crap (LOL). said it was all my fault, I was a horrible writer... Bren: I've bit my tongue, but I'm tired of the blood in my mouth... Alex and Bren go out on a date to enjoy the evening. Bren: I came up here to work for DT, but I never thought I'd make a best friend Alex: Bren is my oasis in this something...wtf is he talking about...I'm surrounded by morons and mascots Bren: tomorrow let's go "balls to the wall"

LAST EDITED ON 04-21-05 AT 09:04 PM (EST)DT does his usual fake-ass schtick with Staples... DT: we're going to have some interesing ideas for you today (to execs) DT: welcome to week thirteen...these 2 execs are froma fantastic company named Staples...Staples does over 13B in sales a year #1 office supply co in the world. Each year they hold a national competition where inventors provide ideas. This take they're going to do just that...they'll have access to a design/manufacturing team and present it to Staples peeps and the team that creates the most innovative product wins. Now Kendra you are exempt should your team lose, you'r in the final four, but after Kendra there will be no more exemptions, no one will be safe.

They team members think Bren will be fired tonight. Alex and Bren walk in, tell everyone Chris got emotional. Everyone tells Bren they thought he was going. Bren thought so too, it was hard to bite his tongue and not say anything. Alex and Bren decide to go to a cigar bar and decompress over brews and cigars. They talk about how they have become friends.The next morning, Tana answers the phone. Meet Mr. Trump in his office right away, to introduce them to 2 important executives. DT is meeting with executives from Staples. Their task is to create an office product to reduce office clutter. They will have a design team at their disposal. Kendra is exempt and a member of the Final Four, but there will be no more exemptions. Carolyn is with Bren and Alex, Alex will be project manager. Bren will call office managers to find out their biggest problems, and meet with the designers. Craig is Project Manager, asks his team to write down any ideas they have. Craig wants Kendra to understand he will lead the way he leads, she's trying to talk to her and he wants her to write down her ideas so they can brainstorm later. Bren and Alex meet with the designers and get some ideas on what products they can use. They try to conference in some Staples managers by phone, but the phone call is disconnected and they have a bad connection. Alex then realizes they should have met with them in person rather than by phone.

Meeting in person with Staples...Tana is asking about a Staples 'motto' and the execs are very helpful...they said not to make a new problem and just to improve upon something already in existence Focus group time: Kendra finds an office manager shopping ot buy supplies...Tana and Kendra go through the guy's cart to see what he needs...ask a few more people in the store and see that they like stackables. Craig wasn't part of the focus group...imagines of Craig sitting at a desk doing pretty much nothing...

Yeah, but right now I don't see myself running out to buy either product. I mean, Kendra's right... The whole point of a folder is to be able to see the tab. If I put horizontal folders in a vertical file it takes up less space, but kinda eliminates the point...Or, as usual, has Craig not explained his concept very well?

28. "Second Segment" |
Trump Lesson of the Week: Take Control.Craig, Tana and Kendra meet with Staples executives to find out their needs. Kendra points out that the Staples executives basically point out they need not invent something new, but rather improve on something that already exists. Tana and Kendra go to a Staples and talk to customers. They each find plenty of people to talk to. Everyone seems to have stackables. Craig is talking to no one but rather wandering around Staples looking at furniture (for his new office as The Apprentice!). Alex and Bren think a focus group is important but have no idea how to conduct one. Alex tells Bren to just call 4 office managers and talk to them on the phone. He's leafing through the Yellow Pages but can't find anyone to talk to him. Alex wants him to talk to at least 2. Manga arrives at Smart Design. Kendra and Tana talk about stackables, Craig can't see it at first but comes around. They are putting 4 stackables together, going vertical rather than horizontal for size reasons. George thinks it will be a large undertaking. Bren and Alex are sitting in a conference room brainstorming ideas. They designed a small table to resolve the office clutter problem, then meet with the graphic designers to build their project. Bren says Alex is more comfortable taking risks, so he's letting him do it. Magna is back at Staples to purchase the products to put inside the office clutter caddy for the presentation. They are having a disagreement about putting horizontal file folders in a vertical caddy, and Craig looks at Kendra and says 'let me try to explain this to you'. Kendra says that was condescending and she won't be talked to like that.

Kendra and Craig are fighting. Craig is laying into her and being condescending and says she doesn't know what condescending means (LOL, he's being condescending in defending himself against being condescending).Tana's freaking out about the presentation. Kendra: even though he's an ##### we are still on the same team Kendra making the presentation. Tana and Craig are acting out a cluttered office scenario (hehe, this is funny)...it's like an infomercial.

It's got a huge footprint on your desktop, but it's still better than the Pack Rat, which has a huge footprint on your carpet. They solved desktop clutter by creating an extra desk to clutter up. Nice work. Next week, Alex solves hunger in the Third World by cutting out everyone's stomachs.

48. "Third Segment" |
Bren and Alex arrive at design studio to look at the table they designed. OK, I admit, it looks pretty kewl. I can't wait to see what the Staples executives think.The design team is putting the final touches on Magna's caddy. Kendra is still talking about file folders. Craig is talking to her again, Kendra says she's talking to her like a child, Craig says yes he's talking to her like he talks to his children when he has to repeat himself. Kendra says maybe that's because you are a bad communicator. Tana just sits there eating while Kendra and Craig continue to bicker. Tana is worried about going in to the presentation with 2 battling team mates. Kendra says they are professionals and will put on a happy face during the presentation. Kendra talks about how they talked to consumers, Craig is sitting at a desk and knocks over his pens, Tana walks over and offers help by presenting their caddy. He starts filling it with his stuff. The store managers are asking questions. Alex and Bren start their presentation: The Packrat. Basically a desk with a plexiglas top that raises for access to removable baskets. Alex is doing the presentation. None of the managers look enthused. They all question having the boxes under a top then have to lift it up and down to get to your papers, the desk will probably fill with papers also. Donald, George and Carolyn head to Staples. Both teams think they did well. The Staples executives say Magna product clearly connected with their customers, the managers said they would buy it. Networth's product didn't connect with the managers, didn't like the lift-top, not enough compartments. Magna wins. Magna will have breakfast with George and Carolyn at the Rainbow Room. Oh, and the first commercial is for the Desk Caddy, available at Staples.

Magna arrives at a private dining room in The Rainbow Room atop Rockefeller Center. George congratulates them on their product, asks whether knocking over the pencils was for real or planned. Craig and Kendra talk about how special it is to get to know Carolyn and George as people other than just trying to fire them in the boardroom. George has known The Donald since Donald was in his 20's. Carolyn's been with Trump Organization for 10 years. Alex and Bren decide to go out and have a last coffee date together. Bren says he should have argued the decision of the judges, he should have argued their case, they had a great product. He's a lawyer, after all, dagnabbit. Alex says the only thing he's thinking about is saying goodbye to a buddy. Alex and Bren arrive in the boardroom. DT asks if lawyers can be creative. The desk is in the boardroom, DT calls it a monstrosity. Alex would like the patent for it, Donald says he could probably have it. Donald says he still doesn't get it. Alex came up with the idea. George is embarassed, he's a lawyer, they are both lawyers. Carolyn doesn't get it. They talk alot about putting stuff on top and can't get to stuff in the bottom. Carolyn tells them all the negative comments the Staples executives had. Carolyn points out they used no resources, no focus group, didn't talk to any executives. Bren says he had no resources. Carolyn points out the other team did. Alex says it was his decision not to meet with the executives, thought he could accomplish the same thing on the phone. George says they did it backwards. Donald tells Alex he started strong and turning out to be week, he's not a star. Alex starts talking about how he put Bren in charge of marketing and relied he would get it done, relied there would be a focus group. Donald says they both did a lousy job and he has to do something.

DT, can lawyers be creative?Alex trying to convey his idea and DT says he doesn't get it. George says he's embarrased. What can you gain by having a top over the boxes...you can't access them without taking the top off, which defeats the purpose of the top. Could have easily put the trays in the drawer in the bottom. Carolyn says she still doesn't get it. Carolyn says the Staples people said it was not good...the execs didn't like it, Alex trying to explain why they didn't meet with them... DT said he thought Alex was a star, "you're not really a star". Alex trying to place blame on Bren not getting the focus group together. Alex is doing a good job weaseling his way out of this one (focus group plan to make calls WAS Alex's idea, not Bren's...)and Bren is just sitting there like a moron.

Is he going to fire them both? Alex needs to go. He's been dogging it. He's not a good leader, nor a good follower. Bren's not much better, but at least he got the fact that cold calling people as a focus group wasn't a grand idea. BTW Alex says you have to trust your head contractor to deliver??? Yeah, ok, but you still have to lead and oversee them...
