The Apprentice, Week 10: Domino's Pizza and Meatballs
Original Air Date: 4/4/05
(PAGE 7 of 7)
Trump refers to Alex as a “refined young man,” and points out that Chris is “not a refined young man,” which is sort of a snotty thing to say, I think. Chris asserts his dedication by the fact that he’s quit chewing tobacco, to which Trump responds, “Well, you quit for two days.” Oooh… he slipped! Now we know that the boardrooms aren’t really a week apart. I mean, I kinda already had that figured out, but it’s fun to see the man behind the curtain every now and then.
Now the target is on Stephanie, and Alex brings out the big guns. “I think she’s the least qualified to be here; I think she’s done a terrible job in almost every task. This was her best showing.” Stephanie is appalled, and the three wrinkles in her forehead keep bobbing in and out of view. I bet you anything that she’s heading straight for the Botox chair as soon as she watches this episode.
Getting increasingly desperate, Stephanie pulls out
her last bit of ammo, which is as lame as lame can
be. “I feel that on this task we lost because these
guys had committed and sold pizzas in Brooklyn.” Now, how on earth could that be the case? And
what did I tell you about bringing up the Brooklyn thing?!! Sigh, here we go. Both George and Trump finally start asking the right questions: “Why couldn’t you delegate that?” “Wouldn’t you say that was a big hour and a half just to apologize to a couple of guys who bought some pizza?”

Stephanie tries one last time to point the finger at Chris, but AGAIN brings up the fact that “this confrontation happened when I was gone.” Stephanie, sweetie...
Trump takes this opportunity to make his final speech, which is quite uninspired and unsurprising, but at this point I think we know what needs to be done. “I don’t know why you took twenty percent of your day to apologize to a couple of people. A good leader would have stayed with her team.” Hehe, he does manage to refer to Chris as a “crazy person.” Still, even though Chris is out of control, Stephanie is in way over her head and she’s fired. Woo hoo!
On their way out, Trump offers a bit of backhanded advice: “Chris, you better get on the ball, because you’re really out of control. And this is every night. So you’d better get going fast, or your potential is not going to mean anything. Okay?” Lordy, I’m actually feeling bad for the boy.
Stephanie’s exit speech is so bourgeois that I won’t even bother to comment on it, except that she’ll have to hide out in her father’s jet for a few months if she doesn’t want a nation full of non-college educated people to kick her snobby butt.

Well, you quit for two days.
