Give the poor show promoters a break. Look at what they had to work with: cheese doodles, bad hygiene, and giant chickens. If you had to promote that episode wouldn't you rather make something up then have to deal with what was really going to air?

A tribephyl original

Tim and Nicole are the obvious romance. They alluded to it, but did not show anything substantive yet. Tim is truly sad if he can not do better than useless Nicole.
Prior to the boardroom, Derek deserved to go more than Marisa. Derek was ALSO in marketing. What did they do? They did absolutely nothing! Pictures make ALL the difference. How many times have you gone thru a drive-thru and saw a sign showing something that looked good and decided to get it? Arrow had signs which clearly showed their product both outside and inside the restuarant.
I also think Arrow's product was better, something I would prefer to eat, but that just might be me.
Regardless, Kinetic had no marketing whatsoever. Derek and Marisa were completely useless, and I don't know how Derek dodged all the heat. I guess because he is Heidi's lap dog, and they decided to go after Marisa. At least Marisa HAD ideas. What idea did Derek have? Marisa had a point that she had ideas but they were shot down. She should have asked what Derek did better than her.
Again, that is pre-boardroom. In the boardroom, Marisa gave a horrendous performance, irritated the hell out of everyone, and deserved to be fired. She showed exactly the traits that her team were harping on.
I also don't appreciate Heidi lying and saying they didn't all collaborate and decide on Marisa before the boardroom, because they did exactly that. She should have just kept her mouth shut and allowed Marisa's accusation to fall on deaf ears, which it pretty much was.
At least now we don't have to hear how Arrow is "losing" so badly, which is complete BS. They had only had two team vs. team tasks! After two tasks there are only two possible outcomes: either a split, or one team winning both. Losing two tasks is not a big deal!

We don't know much about Heidi's team, but the other team is pretty bad....only Aaron and Stephanie have any potential.

As for Heidi's team, like I said we don't know much. I am just going after past seasons but women tend to team up more than men do, I bet that Heidi's team has their next boot picked out already....my guess is it is Aimee. Aimee was afterall picked to go to the boardroom for no reason....just a hunch if Heidi's team loses Aimee will be ganged up on next.

What about James? Despite how hyperactive he is, he seems like a smart guy. He kind of reminds me of Troy - somebody whom everyone loves to work with. I won't be surprised if he can go far in this show.

No, James is too hyper and a lose cannon. It will get him in trouble and would rub Trump the wrong way in the end. As far as everyone liking to work with james...that aint true....they wanted to shut him up so badly on the Tour Bus task.

Troy was different. He was a risk taker and was not a loud mouth. I myself could work with Troy not James. By the way, Troy did make a few enemies on the first season.

Who became Troy's enemy? Katrina?

Ok, enemies is the wrong term. He was not liked by everyone. In anycase, Troy is not important here. James is not even as close to as well liked as Troy. They have already said James is annoying.

I agree with you, but this is still Donald Trump's show. If Trump wants to make it sound like it's a big deal, all contestant have no choice but to agree that it's a big deal. Those who disagreed with him will likely get a lot of heat in the boardroom.

>>Tim and Nicole are the obvious romance. They alluded to it, but did not show anything substantive yet.

Yes, Tim was playing piano on the beach and Nicole had a twinkle in her eye. Love was in the Malibu air. I'm sure they had sex, but just couldn't show it on TV - which is fine just don't tease us with the romance promos.

Note that the previews said "Be there for the beginning of an Apprentice Romance" (just a second, I have to go suppress my gag reflex........okay back now.)

So what we saw was the 'beginning'. Don't worry (gag reflext coming again) we'll get to see more! (runs to bathroom to vomit)

LOL, hope you're feeling better now.

Hopefully, they show the romance by Valetines day.

I assumed that the romance was just Donald still being in love with himself.

SNORT!

I've been Tribed! And I liked it!
