Week 3: "Trouble Brewing"
Original Air Date: 2/3/05
(PAGE 4 of 6)
Later, while the team thinks really, really hard, Michael sits in a corner with a plate on his head. No, seriously, he’s balancing a whole plate on his head.
Danny was just starting to grow on me again… until that is we catch him talking to God: “Mike’s just a plain jackass. How did he get here?” Danny shouts to the sky, “Hello? Where did Mike come from?”
As Danny and Bren move things from their office to Bryant Park, Michael ensconces himself in yet another chair. Bren relays that Danny exploded, “Get up, you ***hole!” Michael whines, “I don’t feel good. Shut up.” Wow, somebody is, like, four.
In Union Square, Net Worth screams to strangers on the street, “We’re giving away ten thousand dollars.” Chris really needs to allow someone else do the yelling. That squeaky voice of his can’t handle the strain.
Audrey Evans says she’s sweating balls. She is so damned cute!
Net Worth’s big concept is a political rally where there’s supposedly a debate about hot versus cold coffee. Hehe, some lady sips the coffee and makes a really ghastly face.
Their big sign outside says, “You could win up to $10K.” Somehow I suspect that raffle winner Linda Cook didn’t succeed in that “up to” part of it. Sneaky bastards.
The camera zooms northwest to Bryant Park where Magna is handing out coffee and iPods. Danny for once makes some sense to me when he says that giving away iPods every few minutes draws in new crowds and keeps people sticking around.

Of course, then he has to go and screw it all up again. In complaining about Michael’s lackluster performance, Danny brags: “We’re relying on the event team. Mike maybe wouldn’t even get a job with them.” Oh, because if a company isn’t owned by Trump, then it sucks eggs and might take him on.
Holy crap, there really is a guy dressed as a giant coffee cup.
Both teams are windblown and perky as they face Trump after the promotion. The Nameless Executives give their consensus on the two events. We know they’re still nameless, because Trump actually says, “Executives, who do you like?”
Nameless Lady compliments Magna’s delivery of their “premium brand message” but points out that there was no common theme to tie it all together. Nameless Man beside her blinks a lot. Then he’s allowed to speak and says that Net Worth “took it to another level by offering both hot coffee options and cold coffee options.” Because iced coffee on a forty-degree day is “taking it another level.”
Net Worth wins and their reward is a helicopter trip over New York. Yay, more shots of New York from a funny perspective!
“Wooo weee!” Net Worth screams on the helicopter. Baby Spice Chris—he’s so cherubic—pontificates: “Without a doubt, the key to success for Net Worth is everybody keeping a smile on their face and having fun. And that’s what it’s about; that’s what life’s about.” Oh, sweetie. When you fall, you’re going to fall so hard.
