00:00Previously, on The Celebrity Apprentice...
00:04After four tasks...
00:05Hot dogs for charity!
00:07Alright, cut. We got it.
00:08Bada bing, bada boom.
00:09You pulled another bag. It's a knockout.
00:11The men of Hydra were undefeated.
00:13Hydra!
00:14Even moving Gene Simmons to Empresario didn't help the women's team.
00:18Hydra, you win. Gene, you're fired.
00:21Then, last week, with Tito away at a fight...
00:24Empresario, you have one last chance.
00:29The teams were tasked with designing an awareness campaign for Crocs.
00:32Wear them, share them.
00:34Fierce hatched a plan to spy on the women.
00:36Vinny, I have an idea for you. You are my Luca Brasi.
00:39By faking an argument with Vinny and firing him.
00:42Vinny! What?
00:43Get out of here. You know what? I'm tired of your s***.
00:45Get out. Get out.
00:47That arrogant English bastard just chased me out of the f***ing boardroom.
00:51Feeling sorry for Vinny...
00:53Vinny? What?
00:54Work for us.
00:55The women took the bait and accepted him as a new team member.
00:58We have to have a buzz statement.
01:00Souls United, share the love.
01:02What's that? Share the love.
01:04Share the love.
01:05As Vinny fulfilled his spy duties...
01:07Share the love.
01:08Share the love.
01:09That's what they're doing.
01:10Steven had a problem with the plan.
01:12It's not right.
01:13While Vinny had a crisis of his own.
01:15I started to say to myself, why am I doing this?
01:18Pierce made a decision to make me be a rat, but it's over. I flipped.
01:21They know everything.
01:22And the women took action.
01:24Put Vinny on the phone.
01:25Vinny?
01:26Yes?
01:27We no longer need your services.
01:29In the boardroom, Vinny revealed the truth.
01:31I did want the women to win.
01:32Absolutely amazing.
01:33And Pierce's attempted sabotage backfired, putting him at risk.
01:37Empress Area, they picked you as the winner.
01:41With a men's first loss, Pierce waged a personal attack on Steven's character.
01:46This is a guy who is a rank hypocrite.
01:48It's not the truth, Mr. Trump.
01:49And Steven took it to heart.
01:51I would rather have less success and a better name than anything else.
01:55But it was Vinny who had had enough.
01:57Mr. Trump, I'm going to end this up right now.
01:59Let me resign.
02:01I accept your resignation.
02:03I accept your resignation.
02:21Hey.
02:22This is different.
02:23So, shoes on the other foot.
02:26Pierce, we know how much you like to drink, so help yourself to the liquor.
02:29Oh, I'm fine. I'm shaking.
02:31It's nice to know that you're just as dirty as the rest of your teammates.
02:35He's aligned himself with the likes of you.
02:37Who would take moral lectures from you?
02:38That really takes him down a level.
02:40You're an absurd celebrity wannabe.
02:42You're a never been, so that's the worst.
02:45I'd rather have been a has been than a never was.
02:47I edited two of the biggest news papers in the world for 12 years.
02:49That's the worst offense of them all.
02:52I just think Omarosa's ego writes checks her body can't cash.
02:55The girl's a loser.
02:57You know, she lost the first series of Apprentice.
02:59She's seen around America as a disgusting little waste room.
03:02She's just a pointless waste of space.
03:04Pierce, don't start. You're in the wrong place.
03:06You're in my war room.
03:07And now you work at the White House.
03:08You're in my war room.
03:09As what? A cleaner?
03:10Pierce, welcome to our war room.
03:13Welcome.
03:20Honestly, I've got better things to do than this.
03:22Good luck, girls. Well done.
03:25Pierce, I can't work with you.
03:27This is about you not wanting the word hypocrite in the show, right?
03:32This is ridiculous, mate. Pathetic.
03:34Just to let you know, guys, I think Mr. Baldwin's resigning as well.
03:37What? Why? Why is he resigning?
03:39Oh, because I called him a hypocrite.
03:41But he said he had nothing to do with it.
03:43Listen, I said to him, you start that game in there, I'm going to call you a hypocrite.
03:46Now he wants to leave the show.
03:49I can't work with Pierce.
03:50I was really impacted by what happened in the boardroom.
03:53So I think it's best that I sit down and have a meeting with Mr. Trump to discuss it.
03:56Mr. Trump, I have Steven Baldwin to see you.
03:59Let him come in.
04:06Come in, Steven.
04:07Sit down right here, please.
04:12So what's going on?
04:14At this point, Mr. Trump, working with Pierce is just not a possibility.
04:20Don't tell me you want to quit.
04:21Well, if I may, respectfully, sir.
04:22Don't go home a loser.
04:24I don't care.
04:25It doesn't affect me.
04:26It's going to affect you.
04:27I was resigning for the same reasons as Vinny.
04:31No, no, Vinny didn't resign for the same reasons.
04:33Whether you like it or not, Vinny got beaten up by Pierce.
04:37And I've been beaten up by Pierce, too.
04:39Honestly.
04:40Then go to the other side and beat him.
04:42I could put you on empresario if you think it's important.
04:45I think that's a lot better.
04:46And then you can kick his ass.
04:48Think big, kick ass, right?
04:50Let's go.
04:51You like that?
04:52I'd do that in a second.
04:53I'm going to put you on the other side.
04:54Excellent.
04:55Okay.
04:56I'll see you tomorrow.
04:59Go get him.
05:09I just had to have a meeting with Mr. Trump.
05:11What happened?
05:12I told Mr. Trump that I no longer wanted to continue working with Pierce.
05:17The resolve that Mr. Trump has suggested is that I become and join a member of empresario, which I have accepted.
05:26Steven was moved to empresario and I did not really agree with that decision.
05:30I didn't think that was very fair to the rest of us.
05:32And quite frankly, if I'm on your team and you tell me to make you coffee and shut up, I'm more than happy to do that.
05:37What?
05:38I don't care.
05:39This is pathetic.
05:40That is, man.
05:41Pathetic, man.
05:42Absolutely pathetic.
05:43That's mental, man.
05:44That's mental.
05:45You're not going to fall for this, Mr. Baldwin.
05:47I was so disappointed to hear that coming from a man.
05:51He wants to move over to the girls' team to make coffee?
05:53I didn't have no respect for him for that.
05:55If it falls to me and you, mate, we can win this on our own.
05:57Don't worry about it.
05:58Steven Baldwin trying to resign from the show and then squirm his way back into the ladies' team?
06:03Pitiful.
06:04And in one fell swoop, told Donald Trump two things.
06:07He's a quitter who tried to resign and he's a disloyal little rat.
06:12Sir, I have a previous engagement.
06:14I actually will not be involved in the next task.
06:18I have to speak at a church.
06:19Steven, are you kidding me?
06:21Let me finish.
06:22No, I'm not going to let you finish.
06:23You're in our war room now.
06:24You come, we get forced to take you on our team.
06:27You have all this drama with your team and you're telling me on the first day of your new job, you won't even be there.
06:33Correct.
06:45Money, money, money.
07:08Good morning.
07:09Good morning.
07:10Tito, they missed you.
07:11You left, your team lost, and you wouldn't believe what happened.
07:14You know, Vinny quit and everybody was shocked to see it.
07:18And he thought Piers was the absolute worst.
07:21We have a little problem.
07:23Steven is not with us this morning.
07:26He will come back.
07:28But I've decided to put him on the ladies' team.
07:31Now, what do you think of that?
07:32Mr. Trump, we respectfully decline your offer to send Steven over to our team.
07:38All right.
07:39I'm the boss.
07:40Steven is going to be an empresario.
07:42That's it.
07:44Okay.
07:45As you can see, Donald and one of my most trusted associates, George Ross, will be my eyes and ears.
07:50They'll be watching your every move.
07:53Vera Wang is a friend of mine.
07:55She's also one of this country's, and in fact the world's, great designers.
08:00Bob Sherman is the president of Serta.
08:02They make mattresses.
08:04Vera Wang designed a Serta mattress.
08:07Vera, what is the task?
08:09The task today is to create a living window featuring my mattresses.
08:16And you're going to be judged by myself and Bob on three things.
08:21Creativity, brand imaging, and entertainment value.
08:27When she said we have to create a living window to promote Vera Wang anything,
08:32I immediately thought, well, we are completely screwed.
08:36Vera, you did that so well, I'm so impressed.
08:38Oh, please.
08:40I should have had another cocktail.
08:43Okay.
08:44Everybody understands.
08:45Everybody knows what you're doing.
08:47$20,000 goes to the project manager of the winning team for their favorite charity.
08:52Go downstairs to the war room.
08:54Pick your project managers.
08:56Go.
08:57Good luck.
09:07Ladies, are you all opposed to me serving as PM on this project?
09:11Not at all.
09:12Okay, perfect.
09:13Go for it.
09:14The task this week is to create a living window display.
09:17And so I decided to step up as project manager.
09:20And this was my opportunity to raise some cash for my charity, Positive Vibrations.
09:25It's a program for at-risk youth who really need someone to believe in them.
09:30Carol will be creative director.
09:31She'll also manage talent because this is your area more than anyone.
09:34You're going to do marketing as well as accounting.
09:36Okay.
09:37Mary Lou, you're so great with dealing with construction crews and managing that.
09:40That's where I want to go.
09:41Perfect.
09:42I just had a brilliant, brilliant idea.
09:46The perfect marriage.
09:48Serta and Vera Wang.
09:50And we utilized her trademark, which is wedding gowns.
09:53And that's what drives her.
09:55Vera Wang, of course, is obviously about weddings and bridal wear.
10:01So we decided on a theme, the perfect marriage.
10:04I would love you in a wedding dress.
10:05I would do that.
10:06Oh, my gosh.
10:07We can also use Stephen.
10:08Stephen.
10:09At first, I was confused about Stephen moving over to our team.
10:13Once the decision was taken out of our hands, we realized Mr. Trump didn't want to lose Stephen.
10:17So then we accepted him.
10:19Don't you think he could carry you in or something?
10:21And he's taller than him.
10:22But that's okay.
10:23He'll be laid down.
10:25No creative ideas yet until we find out all the information we can.
10:29I'm project manager, and my charity is Muhammad Ali Center.
10:33It's really close to Muhammad Ali's.
10:35He's done so much for people around the world.
10:38And this charity means so much to him.
10:40Oh, Vera Wang.
10:41What has she done in the past?
10:43Her company was built around bridal stuff.
10:45But she has now branched out.
10:47And she's doing a lot more.
10:50Her company was built around bridal stuff.
10:52But she has now branched out.
10:54Beyond the core bridal.
10:56So we need to get out of her.
10:57She says, is this a bridal thing?
10:59Or is this a more general thing?
11:01None of us really know much about Vera Wang.
11:03None of us are particularly in touch with our romantic, sensitive, feminine sides.
11:07Particularly not Tito Ortiz and Lennox Lewis.
11:11Whose idea of sensitivity is beating the hell out of Mike Tyson on a quiet Monday.
11:15You know, I think we need to think feminine here, guys.
11:17Which is not going to be easy for us.
11:22Coming up.
11:23Anybody that wants to say something, just go like that.
11:26The moment Lennox became project manager, he turned into a monster.
11:31So what I want to do is have a vote.
11:33Are you going to run everything by a vote?
11:34Yes.
11:35That's not called leadership.
11:36Democratic stuff.
11:37Can I have a buzzer?
11:38No, no, no.
11:39You can't speak.
11:40No, you can't.
11:48Hello.
11:49How are you?
11:50Piers, good to see you.
11:51Piers, nice to meet you.
11:52How are you?
11:53Good to see you.
11:54Our task is to prepare a living window for Vera Wang and Serta.
12:00So we're selling the mattress that's been designed by Vera Wang.
12:04A really interesting challenge, actually.
12:06In terms of this particular challenge, should we be really thinking bridal here?
12:12Certainly.
12:14My brand has grown to be symbolic of much more than only bridal.
12:18I was very interested by the fusion of Serta with Vera Wang.
12:22The majority of the people that buy a mattress are women.
12:24And what it really affords us to do is to offer an outstanding product,
12:29but then add Vera's name to it, which is recognized for comfort, style,
12:34and romance.
12:35I always have to throw that in.
12:37Question.
12:38Yes.
12:39What do you do for entertainment?
12:40I love watching television.
12:41I love reading.
12:42I spend most of my free time on my bed.
12:46In listening to Vera Wang and listening to Bob,
12:49we all got the vision that she wanted to do something different.
12:54You have any ideas?
12:56Just a few things I wrote down that you said, romance.
12:59And then Serta's slogan, the world's best mattress.
13:02So I'm thinking the world's greatest romance deserves the world's best mattress.
13:09Vera Wang by Serta.
13:11I like that.
13:12One of the great romances in history where the woman was the strong one,
13:16Cleopatra, Marc Anthony.
13:18I love it.
13:19I love it, too.
13:20Trace Atkins, who's come up with a lot of great ideas actually for us,
13:23said, look, this is about romance.
13:25We should go back in time.
13:26And I really like it.
13:27So good old Trace again.
13:28I like it.
13:29I like that.
13:30I really like that.
13:32Hello, Vera.
13:33Hi.
13:34How are you?
13:35Nice to see you.
13:36We're very interested in utilizing one of your wedding dresses.
13:40Oh, I'd love that.
13:42But you have lingerie as well.
13:43I do.
13:44I have lingerie.
13:45And we want to tap into all of these wonderful things.
13:47Absolutely.
13:48In order of importance, brand messaging, creativity, and entertainment,
13:53how would you order those three?
13:54I would say the most important thing is the most important thing.
13:58How would you order those three?
13:59I would say the most important thing is always creativity.
14:04Because without creativity and thinking out of the box,
14:07there's no way to attract clients.
14:11We are so looking forward to this.
14:12We really are.
14:15Great.
14:20This is the size that you gave me.
14:21Okay.
14:22Five feet by three feet.
14:24Okay.
14:25Where's this going?
14:26Gentlemen, gentlemen, you see for this part of it,
14:28anybody that wants to say something, just go like that.
14:31Am I allowed to say something to attract your attention to my hair?
14:33Yes, you are.
14:34Okay.
14:35What do I say?
14:36Say, permission to speak.
14:37Right.
14:38Permission to speak, project manager.
14:40Speak.
14:41Are you going to keep this up?
14:42Absolutely.
14:43It sounds ridiculous.
14:44No, it doesn't.
14:45It's working.
14:46It's working for us.
14:47Well, it's working for you.
14:48Yes, it is.
14:49All right.
14:50Yes, sir.
14:52Lennox, having been a very good, fun, cheeky, chappy, smart guy
14:57who'd been everyone's buddy,
14:59the moment he became project manager turned into a monster.
15:03What else do you have in the room?
15:05Nothing, just that.
15:06Are you going to have in the room?
15:07Are we going to have a TV or not?
15:08I just want to vote on this.
15:10Well, no.
15:11I've got a better idea.
15:12Yes.
15:13Permission to speak?
15:14Yes, sir.
15:15You're the project manager.
15:16Right.
15:17You've heard all the arguments.
15:18Right.
15:19Your call.
15:20What do you say, Tito?
15:22Um, on what?
15:24Whether we use modern stuff or not.
15:26Whether we use modern stuff or not.
15:27Yeah.
15:28I think in that case we should have the TV.
15:31Okay, I'm having a vote.
15:32Who wants TV?
15:33Put up their hands.
15:35Are you going to run everything by a vote?
15:36Yes, because we're a team.
15:38That's not called leadership.
15:39That's just called having a vote on everything.
15:41Right.
15:42There's no point having a project manager.
15:43Democratic, son.
15:44Mate, there's no point having a project manager.
15:45Do you want a TV in there, yes or no?
15:46Wait a minute.
15:47Can I clarify something?
15:48Hang on.
15:49No, you can't.
15:50Can we have a vote whether I can speak?
15:51No.
15:52No.
15:53Tito, what are you saying?
15:54TV, yes or no?
15:55Permission to speak?
15:56No.
15:57Don't want to hear from you.
15:58Right, but when can I speak again?
16:00When you have something to add.
16:01I do.
16:03You do?
16:04Yes.
16:05What do you have to add?
16:06I don't like what you're doing.
16:07Ah, ah, ah, ah.
16:08Don't want to hear anything.
16:09Talk to the hand.
16:10Piers kind of felt like he's in school because he's not used to holding up his hand anymore.
16:14He's just used to blurting out.
16:16So anybody that wants to argue with me has to talk to the hand.
16:19You have to make a call about whether you like it censored on?
16:22Right.
16:23No, I like it.
16:24Do you want to vote on that?
16:25I want to.
16:26I actually want to vote on that, yes.
16:28Lex Lewis has put it out to a vote in which he won't participate.
16:32And when it comes to any decision, he goes, I want to vote.
16:35Would you like to start the vote?
16:36Yes, I would.
16:37What would you like?
16:38Huh?
16:39What would you like?
16:40I would like to hear from Trace.
16:41What do you think we should do?
16:42Unbelievable.
16:47We're going to have a curtain here if possible.
16:51We're not sure if we need it or not.
16:53Right.
16:54If we needed something to close or open.
16:56And there's a wall here.
16:57The same thing on that side?
16:58Yes.
16:59Okay, great.
17:00Now what about a curtain here?
17:01And what about?
17:02With who?
17:03See, I don't know about windows.
17:04Do you have to have this all?
17:05Does it have to be a box?
17:06A ceiling?
17:07Mary Lou goes off to do construction, which she's now done on multiple tasks.
17:11And she is very scattered.
17:13And she's like very all over the place.
17:15What I want to do is I want to hang.
17:16I want a white wall.
17:17But I want the curtains a little bit in front so that if we had lighting that could be.
17:21Right now.
17:22Yes.
17:23The walls are going to be sitting on top of this platform.
17:25Okay.
17:26Is there any way to not have them sit on top of this platform but be recessed like.
17:31Mary Lou was just unable to communicate clearly what we were trying to do.
17:35We're not progressing.
17:36In fact, we don't even have our construction materials yet.
17:39I'm a little bit nervous right now.
17:46Coming up.
17:47I don't want to kill your creativity.
17:48No, no, no.
17:49That's.
17:50Okay.
17:51It was a creative team decision.
17:52Yeah.
17:53Mary Lou is just all over the place.
17:54And that energy I have to kind of hone in.
17:56Please, just for the rest of the night.
17:58I cannot take it.
17:59If you saw it from my view, you'd know.
18:09You're going to be able to put walls up on the ends for us?
18:12Yeah.
18:13We can have walls here, either side, with an entrance door.
18:15Yeah, wall.
18:16The task is actually setting up a living window display for Vera Wang by Serta.
18:22And Cleopatra was a big thing for us because that's the ultimate romance in history.
18:32We have to start staging.
18:33It would be nice to have Stephen Baldwin.
18:35Is he coming?
18:36He's supposed to be here at six o'clock, he said.
18:38Everybody is working their fingers to the bone.
18:40And the only person that's missing on my team is Stephen Baldwin.
18:45This is the wedding situation half.
18:47Uh-huh.
18:48And this is the threshold.
18:49Mm-hmm.
18:50This is the front of the window.
18:51We're going to have a bride and a groom come in, get very excited.
18:54He carries her over the threshold.
18:56She looks at him.
18:57He scoops her up.
18:58She turns around like this.
18:59And he, like, blindfolds her.
19:01She stepped out of her gown and she has a little underwear on.
19:05This is like burlesque.
19:07This is a little edgy for me.
19:11My biggest concerns are keeping Mary Lou intact, not going too big with the vignette,
19:16not going too big with the performances, keeping it simple and nailing home the point.
19:20Let's stay on the surface of wedding and romance.
19:23But I don't want to kill your creativity.
19:25No, no, no.
19:26It was a creative team decision.
19:28We're just trying to figure out how we do a reveal.
19:30Y'all, please, just for the rest of the night, I cannot take it.
19:34If you saw it from my view, you'd know.
19:36I love Mary Lou, but she's just all over the place.
19:38And that energy, I have to kind of hone in.
19:40I think we have to figure out who's just in charge of set dressing this puppy.
19:45And frankly, I don't care if Mary Lou does the set dressing.
19:48I care.
19:49Nelly was former head of Telemundo.
19:52I'm expecting her to be more informative.
19:55You are a big-time Hollywood producer for a reason.
19:58I need your vision.
19:59I need you.
20:00I would say in my team, I trust Omarosa.
20:02I know that sounds very strange, but I do.
20:04When someone is very passionate in their vision, they inspire you to follow them.
20:08And what planet is Mary Lou on today?
20:12Omarosa is the kind of project manager that's covering her ass.
20:16You have to watch your back every second with her because you know you can get stabbed.
20:20You don't even have to watch your back.
20:21She'll get you from the front, beside, through the temples, whichever way she wants.
20:35Let's go. What do we need in the morning?
20:37Fruit.
20:38No other food?
20:39Champagne.
20:40No other food.
20:41Hang on, we haven't decided yet.
20:43You've already had one vote on it.
20:44Trace, Tito, and I have slowly picked up on the fact that the only person so far who's had no ideas
20:51is the dictatorial project manager.
20:54So we've all begun to work out what he's doing.
20:56Have you taken responsibility for anything yet?
20:58Yes.
20:59Like what?
21:00You guys.
21:01One decision?
21:02Yes.
21:03One decision?
21:04Yeah, I'll take it.
21:05I've not heard you take one all day.
21:06My decision is up to my votes.
21:07You haven't made one decision all day to let you go.
21:09Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on.
21:11Lennox has no clear vision in his head of what he needs to do.
21:14We just laughed about it all day long.
21:16We thought it was funny.
21:17All you've done is very carefully make sure we're all responsible for everything.
21:21Why are you trying to divide the team?
21:23No, I'm not.
21:24Are you making trouble?
21:26No.
21:27Are you sure?
21:28No.
21:29As usual, you're asking me a question which puts me into some form of responsibility.
21:32We've all worked out your game.
21:33It's very clever.
21:34It doesn't mean we have to accept it.
21:36Now you're starting to sound like Gene Simmons.
21:37It ain't working, right?
21:38Exactly.
21:39And you just broke wind.
21:41Did you get that?
21:42Yeah.
21:43Unbelievable.
21:44Mr. Garth.
21:45Come on, man.
21:49You know what?
21:50That just about sums it up.
21:52Your project managership stinks.
22:02Hey!
22:07Oh, hi!
22:13Just flown in.
22:14My first official time together with Emissario.
22:17I wasn't able to make the first half of the task because I had to speak at a church.
22:21So, this is what we did.
22:23Our idea was the perfect marriage.
22:27Marketing-wise, I want to share something with you guys, which is this.
22:30Together, it's new.
22:32It's something that we can put up behind the bed on the wall that's like some phrase.
22:37You understand?
22:39I had a really hard time with Steven coming back and throwing out ideas.
22:42I mean, he wanted to change the whole vibe.
22:45It's almost like I have a better idea than you guys and I'm here and tough.
22:49I'm just trying to take in everything you've done and then pepper it with a little Stevie B.
22:59I was like, Stevie B, dude, get out of here.
23:16We've got half an hour, son.
23:18Do you know where the food store is? Fruit?
23:20Fruit?
23:21Fruit.
23:22Two blocks.
23:23Two blocks?
23:24Thanks!
23:26It comes down to our last hour and a half.
23:28Me and Lennox got to go get champagne, fruit.
23:30We got to get pillows and buy fabric.
23:32Thanks, man.
23:33Appreciate it.
23:34Have a good day.
23:36By the time we got back, we got the outfits that the actors are going to be wearing
23:39and making sure the models are looking great.
23:41So, hopefully, we're doing the right things.
23:43Okay, I'll push, guys.
23:44We have five minutes.
23:46Can't say the team Hydra is missing anything.
23:48I think they're behind schedule.
23:50Maybe that'll hurt them because they won't be able to do the finishing touches.
23:53That's it.
23:54Well, I can split them apart, but we split them into two vases.
23:57Guys, we have five minutes.
23:59Scissors. I need scissors.
24:00I need scissors.
24:01I need a staple gun.
24:02Well, guys, when it comes to design and that finicky stuff, women are great at that.
24:07So, I was concerned a little bit, but, you know, if we go overboard, it's good.
24:11At least we're better overboard than underboard.
24:15We're going to start staging.
24:18Okay, let's do last looks on the stage.
24:20Let me see the actresses.
24:21Hair and makeup, can I get last looks on the girls?
24:24Ladies and gentlemen, we have five minutes to show time.
24:28Perfect, perfect.
24:29I don't want her hair out of place.
24:30Room is ready.
24:32Listen up.
24:33Mary Lou is directing.
24:35I want you to listen to Mary Lou.
24:37Have fun.
24:38Everybody's having so much fun.
24:40Oh, it's great.
24:48All right, oh, look at this.
24:50A living tableau.
24:53The flurry of activity.
24:54Throw those petals in the air.
24:56Here comes my friend.
24:57My best friend just got married.
24:59Look at these girls.
25:01They're so fabulous.
25:03That dress, I've got to have it.
25:06This is so unbelievable.
25:07I'm in awe.
25:11Look at them.
25:12Are they gorgeous or what?
25:16It's so amazing.
25:17Bravo.
25:18Thank you, Vera.
25:20Amazing.
25:23Thank you, guys.
25:25Our window is exactly what she wanted.
25:27I've won this task, hands down.
25:29I'm going to TKO Lennox Lewis.
25:37Vera, how are you?
25:38Good morning, how are you?
25:39Good to see you.
25:40Bob, how are you?
25:41Good to see you.
25:42We decided to come up with a slogan for you.
25:44The world's great romances deserve the world's best mattresses.
25:48Wow.
25:49That is fantastic.
25:52Wow.
25:53Illustrate that.
25:54What greater romance than Cleopatra and Marc Antony.
25:58Oh, God.
25:59Look at her.
26:00And then down here, we could not resist calling you the Empress of Elegance.
26:04I love that.
26:05Obviously, the mattress is very prominent.
26:07And then we created Cleopatra's Lair.
26:09Although it's all very period, there's a plasma TV.
26:12I know.
26:13I just saw that.
26:14There's a laptop.
26:15There's a mobile phone.
26:16There's a camera.
26:17So they're leading the modern life, and yet it's Cleopatra and Marc Antony.
26:21They are one of the world's great pair of romantics.
26:24I love the world's great romances.
26:26Me too.
26:27Very clever.
26:28It makes you look at a bed in more than one way.
26:30This is beautiful and totally unexpected.
26:33Thank you very much.
26:34Just incredible.
26:36All right.
26:37Okay.
26:38We could tell, especially on Vera's face.
26:41She was ecstatic about it.
26:43Bob loved it, and that gave me a good feeling.
26:46One, two, three.
26:47All right.
26:48All right, baby.
27:16Steven, how did you find working with these very, very tough, smart, attractive women?
27:22Well, Mr. Trump, it was a blessing for me.
27:25I just wanted to be in an environment that I thought would be conducive and productive,
27:28and it was beyond that.
27:30Better than Piers?
27:32There's no comparison.
27:34What did you think of the team without Steven?
27:36Great.
27:37He had a winning mentality.
27:38I think we got over the fact that both the New York quitters had left us,
27:41and we were left with people who wanted to win.
27:43Piers is just not really socially apt to work with people who are not like him,
27:47and he doesn't have tolerance, so he goes for very personal items.
27:50But he is very smart.
27:51That's questionable.
27:52For four ugly blokes to take on some glamorous women and Omarosa in a challenge, it's not easy.
27:58And as far as I'm concerned, Mr. Trump, this guy is a winner.
28:01This guy is a winner.
28:02He knows he's being fired, so he's trying to protect himself.
28:04The idea that these guys were quick.
28:06Well, you're right about the guys, so let's leave it at that.
28:08How was Lennox as a project manager?
28:12He let everybody speak their piece and voice their opinions and come up with ideas,
28:16albeit maybe in a strange kind of way.
28:19Why strange?
28:21Well, he wanted everybody to raise their hand, you know, before they would speak.
28:26Before speaking?
28:27Piers, how did you feel about that?
28:29I felt that he was treating me like a little child.
28:31He needs it because he's always talking over somebody, or he interrupts people.
28:37I think it could be good leadership. Tough leadership. Tough guy.
28:40Do you think you won?
28:41We were pretty confident, actually.
28:43We asked one specific question of Vera Wang.
28:45What is your intention now moving forward?
28:48And they made it very clear to us that actually they were moving away from bridal stuff
28:52into a much wider range to appeal to all women based on romance.
28:59Nellie, what did you think of Omarosa as a leader?
29:01I think Omarosa's a rock star, and I think as a team we really gel well together.
29:05We finally have our mojo.
29:07Don, what did you think? You went around, what did you think?
29:09I thought the women definitely went with a more conservative approach.
29:12They played it a little bit safe going with the wedding motif,
29:14but overall they really worked well as a team.
29:16George, what did you think?
29:18Well, I saw primarily the men. As soon as I saw the idea, I thought it was extremely creative.
29:22In other words, they were going at timeless romance, going back to Cleopatra and Mark Antony.
29:27So as far as creativity and as far as entertainment value, I thought it was great.
29:31But it wasn't as beautiful.
29:32No, it wasn't as beautiful, but it certainly was eye-catching.
29:36Vera really liked what both of you did.
29:39She really understood what you both did.
29:42And it was very different. Very, very different.
29:45But when we added Vera to the CERDA Executive,
29:52the winner is Hydra.
29:58Congratulations, Hydra. Lennox, you're going to be getting $20,000 via Favorite Charity.
30:03What is that going to be?
30:04Mohammed Ali Center.
30:05Oh, I love Mohammed Ali.
30:07Okay.
30:08Can I just extend on behalf of Hydra my commiserations to the other team and to CERDA Amorosa?
30:16Well, bad luck.
30:17Bad luck next time, yeah?
30:20Tough guy.
30:21Tough guy.
30:22No class at all, mister.
30:25Sweet, baby.
30:26Love it, baby.
30:27Sweet.
30:28One, two, three, Hydra!
30:35Losing is not good.
30:48So, Amorosa, the slaughter continues.
30:51I just, I'm shocked. I am absolutely shocked.
30:55They both thought you did a good job, but they really thought Hydra was fantastic.
30:58I thought you guys could have it repped.
31:00You know, being much more in the fashion world, you know, being much more elegant perhaps than the men and thinking that way.
31:05We asked the same question that they asked about, this is where you've come from, this is where you are, where do you see yourself going?
31:12And I thought pretty much she was saying, you know, she was all about, you know, this is her bridal and this is where it came from.
31:19Now, though, you're also dealing with the people from CERDA.
31:22Right.
31:23Not just Vera. Did you ask both of them or did you kind of only listen to Vera?
31:26We didn't put the sheep.
31:27You have to understand the thing.
31:28We didn't put the CERDA sheep in the window.
31:29No, but the CERDA sheep in the window at this point, I think you missed it.
31:32Vera is associated with marriage. She's associated with marriage gowns.
31:35What's creative about creating a marriage atmosphere? It's not creative.
31:38Right.
31:39It's a marriage atmosphere. That's what she's known for.
31:41That's what I'm saying, baby.
31:42Who decided on the concept?
31:45Omarosa, when I met with you, you did say that it was your choice to go with the wedding concept.
31:49It was.
31:50Yeah.
31:51And I did sign off on that.
31:52You get that now. I mean, in thinking about it, it was so standard, so typical that maybe it's not that imaginative.
31:57The focus was very simple at this point.
31:59One, it was creativity, which had to be different than that.
32:02And the other one was entertainment value.
32:04Now, at this point, I didn't see any entertainment value in yours.
32:07It's a wedding scene.
32:08Whereas, look, at this point, I see a gladiator on the bed with Cleopatra.
32:11You stop and say, wow, what is that?
32:13The other one, you don't.
32:14So it has two of the three factors.
32:16The other one, brand acceptance.
32:18That I think you got.
32:19But you missed two out of three.
32:21Steven, what would you do if you were me?
32:23I would base it on a task-by-task basis.
32:26But the past always enters it.
32:28And no matter how good we do, and no matter how much we want to look at an individual task,
32:32the past will always enter my decisions.
32:35I thought the team was great.
32:36I thought the team worked amazingly.
32:38From the time I got there until the time we were finished,
32:41I think that the person whose performance was the most questionable was Mary Lou.
32:47And why is that?
32:48Mary Lou comes out of theater.
32:50As a result, there's a lot of drama and energy, and she talks.
32:53And she sometimes is so...
32:55I haven't seen that so much with Mary Lou.
32:56I've heard about it, but I haven't seen it.
32:58When she gets into the task, when she gets into the trenches, it is full speed.
33:02She's spitfire.
33:03But sometimes trying to communicate when she's in that mode is very difficult.
33:07I think you have a very, very tough job.
33:09Because you're going to bring back two people, and you're having a hard time with this.
33:11I'm sitting here, Mr. Trump, not even believing that I have to do that.
33:14But I will tell you before I have to make that decision that just by default, I have to bring Steven in.
33:19He did not put in the whole day work.
33:22It's not about performance or whatever, because I didn't have a chance to measure his performance, because he came so late.
33:27I think ultimately, in this case, he had to abide because of religion, and that's neither here nor there.
33:32But he also didn't have anything to do with the decision that ultimately made you lose.
33:36You may be like our friend Gene, who kept on going.
33:40And Nelly was the beneficiary of that, in all fairness.
33:43But, you know, Gene just didn't want to listen.
33:45I really think that bringing Steven back is a mistake, but it's also your decision.
33:50Can we just skip all of us going out and just sit here and stand united?
33:54Because we worked hard as a unit.
33:56Can we just stand and face our judgment together as opposed to just two?
34:00I see you shaking your head, George.
34:02No, that's not the way it's done.
34:03All life is tough decisions.
34:04Somebody has to go, somebody has to stay.
34:06Who would you pick, Omarosa?
34:08Who would you pick to come back?
34:15I need a moment.
34:16And I don't have much time, but I'm just asking you for a moment.
34:19Oh, shut up, you great actress.
34:21Project Leader has failed on two out of three counts.
34:24Omarosa, no creativity, no entertainment.
34:28She's got to go.
34:29Yeah, yeah.
34:31Okay.
34:32I know how to make a decision, Mr. Trump.
34:33That's why I'm sitting here.
34:34Go ahead.
34:35Who are you bringing back?
34:36I am bringing back Mary Lou and Nelly.
34:42Okay, very good.
34:43Then Stephen and Carol, go back, enjoy yourselves.
34:46You three get out also, please.
34:49You'll come back in a little while.
34:51Somebody will be fired.
35:02Don, what do you think?
35:03I think it's a tough call.
35:04I mean, I really liked what they were doing when we were there, but ultimately they lost.
35:07They did lose.
35:08George?
35:09Well, I think a good part of it is Nelly.
35:11As a television producer, I think she should have been strong enough to see that what they were producing is not what was wanted.
35:18I did the best I could.
35:20I can honestly say I did the best I could.
35:42So ultimately, why did you decide on these two?
35:44I just wasn't getting the creative feedback that I needed from Nelly on this task, and I was very surprised.
35:51And I decided on Mary Lou because she was responsible for a bit of the creatives, but mostly the vignettes and the performances.
35:59But moreover, she served as a weakness on our team in the sense that she was not able to clearly communicate her thoughts.
36:06In terms of communication, I am considered a great communicator.
36:09I was in charge of construction.
36:11But Stephen didn't feel you communicated well, and he didn't think of you as a great communicator.
36:15Why didn't he? Amarosa, why didn't he?
36:17She doesn't listen, and it's not necessarily what you're saying, but taking the time to listen when somebody's trying to impart important information.
36:23Well, I wouldn't say you're the greatest listener in the world.
36:25You know, I've learned some lessons since the first time.
36:27That's an interesting statement coming from Amarosa.
36:29That could be a classic definition of irony.
36:32Vera Wang is associated with weddings, and yet what she did here was not a departure from weddings.
36:37She wanted something creative.
36:38How can you have perfect marriage with weddings as being creative?
36:43I did turn to my team to guide me, and as PM, I did not...
36:47Did Nellie guide you? Did Mary Lou guide you?
36:50Did not get a strong creative feedback from Nellie.
36:54We had, you know, we have these designers, and we had this, and we had that.
36:58Maybe I needed more help on the creative.
37:00Yeah, I went, maybe I helped you in a different direction than I should have helped you.
37:04George had a statement before, to me, that was interesting. Go ahead, George.
37:08I'm saying, you're a television producer, and yet you let happen what happened.
37:13And you could see that this was so far off the mark of creativity and entertainment value.
37:17There were only four of us, so we had to pick what each of us could do.
37:20You see, I have a major problem.
37:23The one difficulty I have with Nellie, and maybe I'll make it two difficulties.
37:28Number one, you really have more experience in this than probably even Mary Lou, wouldn't you say?
37:32You really have more experience than anybody in this.
37:36The other is that, I believe, at least one of the two times, you probably should have been fired.
37:43Maybe not both, but certainly one.
37:45I would like to say something, because I think this really isn't about this task.
37:48I've never come into the boardroom, except when I failed.
37:51And when I failed, I told you I would take the bullet.
37:53Well, you got lucky twice.
37:54Well, no. With all due respect, the first time...
37:57That doesn't mean you would have been fired.
37:59No.
38:00But I think you got lucky twice.
38:01Well, with all due respect, Gene Simmons didn't bring me into this boardroom because he thought I was excellent, not because I'm lucky.
38:07And I think that's very important for me because you keep bringing it up, and I don't know why you haven't gotten over that.
38:16Gene Simmons made a critical mistake when he didn't bring you into the boardroom.
38:20That's my opinion.
38:21But not one of my team members has brought me into the boardroom before.
38:26I think you have to look at that.
38:27You have to look at that, and there has to be some justice in that.
38:30I don't understand why, you know, continually all this keeps coming up when I feel like I'm so much like you.
