The Apprentice
I'm back and so is "The Apprentice."
Surya is — as usual — annoying the crap out of everyone on his team. He continues to ramble to his team like he is the president of "The Apprentice" universe and all his teammates are his assistants.
It's only a short time before his team REALLY turns on him, and I can't wait for it.
The challenge this week is to do a halftime show during a Los Angeles Galaxy game at Home Depot Center. The team who promotes GNC the best wins.
Surya immediately starts off his team brainstorming and tells his group they must be quiet for five minutes to help focus. Um, good idea — if you are teaching kindergarten! His team decides to do a boxing match during halftime to raise awareness of GNC and their products.
Meanwhile, Kinetic is moving along with a really cute idea of having people dress up like vitamins and going through an obstacle course with challenges you would have in life such as clogged arteries, etc. It's the "multi-vitamin challenge." I love this idea. People love costumes. (Hello, there is a national mascot competition.)
Muna seems to have some trouble with the idea but Kristine, the project manager, seems to quiet her pretty easily. Will Kinetic kick butt again? Looks like it so far.
When it came to showtime, Kinetic having vitamin tablets tackling bone disorders, clogged arteries and doing exercise was so much fun. I think GNC should do it at more games. Plus, they also translated it into Spanish to reach a larger audience. Slam dunk, in my opinion, for Kinetic.
On the other hand the boxing match was a lot of storyline and no real action. To me, it sucked and was very boring.
And, to no surprise, Kinetic kicked Arrow's butt and won the challenge. And just let me get this out of the way now — girl power! Kinetic is an all female team now and they did great with this challenge.
The girls win a trip to play golf with The Donald and the head of Taylormade at Trump National Club in L.A., plus Kristine gets to sit in on the boardroom and her team moves back into the mansion.
The girls give a good show on the golf course — Donald looks impressed. As a parting gift, all the girls get a set of Taylormade's new Trump golf clubs. Put them to good use ladies!
As Arrow heads to the boardroom, there is no doubt Surya is going to get ambushed by his team, which is exactly what happens.
As much as Surya annoys his team, he came into really bad spot. His team had already bonded before he switched over to them, so it's obvious that he is the odd man out. His bossy ways didn't help him bond with any of his teammates and it's showing in the boardroom.
Surya decides to bring back Tim and James with him to duke it out. After some desperate attempts to get rid of James, Trump fires Surya but tells him that he thinks he will be very successful. Kristine was so quiet in the boardroom I forgot she was even there.
Until next week!
