his new mommy.  I mean, because “she did an incredible job.”

When the three sit on the sofa in Robin’s Corner, I wonder, why do the guys get to sit all sprawly legged while poor Erin has to scrunch up in a corner?  I really think it’s indicative of a larger sociological problem. 

Back in the boardroom, John defends himself as being the only one who was putting ideas out there.  If they weren’t good enough, his team should have said something.  Well, John, this may have been difficult for them to get across to you, what with your referring to them as whores throughout the entire task…but anyhoo…

George can’t let go of the fact that Chris didn’t go along with the negotiating team. Seriously, I know George is just trying to bait Chris, because he’s done that a couple of times before and each time Chris flips out.  So far, he holds it together: “I had enough confidence in John and Erin and Stephanie to facilitate a successful…”

“Didn’t you not go there because you wanted to stay out of the line of fire, and you didn’t think you could handle it?”  Heehee.  Oh George, you sly devil.

Woo hoo, it works!  Mr. Squeaky emerges, his finger pointing all willy nilly, his face crunching up and his voice reaching glass-shattering levels: “Sir, I am the best negotiator at this table and that is a fact.  And that’s why I am the only one at 21 years old sitting here.”  Eep.  I think he meant, “at this side of the table, because otherwise that was really dumb even beyond the obvious reasons.

Now Carolyn’s pissed, and asks him if he’s so good why he didn’t negotiate.  Hehehe.  Now he points and yells at her.  Finally screeching, “You guys are losing sight of the production side!” Carolyn is absolutely loving this, because she’s eaten 21-year-old boys like Chris for a snack (and just so we don’t lose focus on John, how come he liked to be all condescending about Audrey’s age and never about Chris’s?  I’m just sayin’).

George will simply not let up until Chris destroys the place with a machete.  “Why didn’t you go?  Why didn’t you go???”

“I just told you!” Chris screams.  Now George can play the card he’s been holding all along and chastises Chris for raising his voice.  Haha, Chris is in trooooou—ble!

Chris, bless his stubborn little heart, sticks by his point that production was more important than the negotiations, and you know what?  I think he convinces Trump too.  Trump turns to Erin and says, “Erin, you’re probably not going to be fired.”  She stutters a little bit, but Trump cuts her off, jeering, “Erin, if you keep talking, you might get fired. But at this moment you’re probably not.  Go ahead, keep talking.”  She purses her lips, shakes her head, and keeps mum. 

Finally, finally…“John, you let me down.  You just did a terrible job negotiating.  John you’re fired.”  Yeee haaa!

On the way out, John and Chris share a sweet non-homosexual hug.
