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, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"'Profit: funds acquired over and above all applicable expenses.'"
Or 'name yet another reason Fortitude's members are unemployed' -- because that sabotage tactic they pulled at the end of the task was the act of giggling sorority idiots looking for a way to short-sheet someone else's bed using their own personal sheets.

The winner was determined by profit margin. We don't know everything Donald considered as 'applicable expenses' -- gas expended driving around Manhattan may not have counted, the cost of the outfits probably did -- but it's a safe bet that 'initial wholesale price of your product' was on the list. The women didn't know where Octane's sales total was or what kind of profit margin they'd gathered over the two days. They only knew their own total (assuming anyone could be bothered to keep track). And they should have known that they couldn't afford to give away product. Because every ice cream sandwich handed out in an attempt to sabotage the men just gave the competition one less sale -- but it gave the women a double hit: one less sale for themselves plus -- if only items sold counted and not the full initial inventory cost -- subtracting the wholesale cost of the product from their profit total as a promotional expense.

If the totals had been close and Donald had used one of his favorite money-counting techniques, Fortitude could have sabotaged itself right into the Boardroom.

Brilliant. Really.

Getting a little sick of Donald's 'let's you and her fight' tactics.

Missed 2nd Ep.
Is it being re-shown? I've tried to find it but haven't.
Can I catch it on-line?

Looks like the reruns are on CNBC on Friday night and Saturday late night.

TVGuide.com and NBC.com both seem to have full episodes online.

I could record any on late at night - maybe I can find them this week. I proabably wasn't looking late enough on my guide list.
Thanks Snidget

I agreed that that was a very weird/stupid move for the girls to make. I really thought the guys would beat them, but I was wrong . It would've been fun to watch another catfight board room...

Is it just me? or does anyone else think David's expressions & the way he twists his mouth up when taking is really strange; very off-putting.

David is off-putting in so many ways, I can't even begin to count! Is it any wonder he's lost everything? It's really hard to feel very sorry for someone who's attitude just totally stinks!

I can't even imagine what his wife and children have gone through watching him crash and burn. Gee, does he NOT know he's on TV, being watched by potential employees? I think one of the men TRIED to explain that to him, but the man has worms for brains.

Anyway, other than him, this is the first time in all the Apprentice shows I've watched that I have totally hated one side completely, and that is the women's side! They are unbelievable! Take Masha-no, please, take her! (I know, an old Marx brother's joke...), Poppy, Tania, Liza, whoever else is on there, and put them altogether and you have one big fat beotch waiting to yell, scream, talk over everyone and never make any sense at all. I don't know how the Donald can keep up with their arguments. I think his daughter has just about had it with these women-and she usually just sees them in the board room. Not to mention Jr. rolling his eyes every time he has to deal with them. It's almost comical, but not really.

At this point in time, I don't see ONE woman stepping up to the plate and actually winning or even coming in 2nd for this 'super' job the Donald is offering. ADA Masha can go back to wherever and do what she does best-argue, scream and be obnoxious.
