Week 10: "Runaway Pride"
“Impossible” Tasks, Trampled Fliers, and Only Two Brides-To-Be
(PAGE 2 of 2)
Either that, or freaking your teammates out when you blast an email to 23,000 brides without including your phone number on it.
Even before we saw harried commuters trampling over muddy Apex flyers, it occurred to me that there was no WORSE way of advertising than handing them out in Penn Station. What could be a more ineffective way of promoting wedding gowns? Going to a cigar club? A boxing match at Madison Square Garden? A Gay and Lesbian mixer?
Only two brides-to-be come in to look at the Apex gowns. It must be weird to be in a store where the employees outnumber the customers.
Wes Moss claims, “This is not in the bag yet. They could have easily hired a bridal consultant or someone.” Operative words being “could have.”
I’ve got a hunch that $50,000 at Graff wouldn’t even buy a toe ring for Melania.
Read into it as you will: Andy buys a gift for his mom; Kelly buys a gift for himself.
As Chris’s troops plot his downfall, he tells us he’s a fighter. That’s kind of like a leper telling us he’s a people person. Sometimes it just doesn’t matter.
Carolyn seems to have a “blonde moment” when she proclaims: “I disagree about Sandy having the advantage here.” Huh? The only bigger advantage would be if Kevin were matched up against Ivana in a weightlifting contest.
Chris sends Jennifer up to the suite. Jennifer says Chris should be fired. Next Halloween, she should be a praying mantis. No costume required.
Ivana, ragging on Jennifer: “She’s all presentation.” A) Not true. B) People don’t buy Jessica Simpson albums because she’s talented.

Ivana: "I think Chris is very good at identifying problems. And when I say that, I mean he's really good at complaining." Ivana, you’re very good at complaining, and when I say that, I mean you’re really good at creating problems.
I actually had a moment of doubt about the outcome when Trump said to Chris, “Should I fire Ivana, right now?” and he shot right back, “Instead of me? Absolutely. I’m an asset.” He’s wrong, but still…
Did anyone else sense a little residual anger towards Jennifer when they were all waiting to go back into the boardroom? Good thing this show’s not Survivor. She would be voted off Trump Island in no time.
After her sixth trip to the boardroom, can we patent the Ivana Face when someone else gets fired—the one where she looks down because she’s afraid she’s going to burst into a smile?
Who got fired? Chris.
Who should have been fired? Chris.
Why? While the deck was totally stacked against anyone who didn’t know the website TheKnot.com, Chris didn’t help his cause any by telling his team that they all sucked. Throwing up his hands in defeat probably wasn’t a good call either. Too bad he didn’t win; I would have loved to see him pick out a gold necklace for himself at Graff.
