LAST WEEK ON 'THE NEW CELEBRITY APPRENTICE', GOVERNOR SCHWARZENEGGER SWITCHED UP THE TEAMS YET AGAIN,... GEORGE, JOIN TEAM PRIMA. I CAN'T SAY I'M UNHAPPY. (CHUCKLES) ...BEFORE TASKING THEM WITH CREATING A TIMEOUT PERFORMANCE FOR THE CLIPPERS. ON TEAM PRIMA, LISA LESLIE WAS IN HER ELEMENT IN THE PRESENCE OF TEAM OWNER STEVE BALLMER,... LET'S GO, CLIPPER NATION! # COME ON, CLIPPER NATION! # ...RESULTING IN A SLAM-DUNK VICTORY. CLIPPER NATION, YES! (CHEERING, APPLAUSE) ON ARETE, PROJECT MANAGER RICKY WILLIAMS WAS HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE LOSS. AND, RICKY, YOU'RE TERMINATED. (INTRIGUING MUSIC) OK, QUESTION ` WHO DO YOU THINK'S GOING HOME? LAILA. IT JUST FELT LIKE HE GAVE THE MESSAGE TODAY ABOUT ENERGY AND FIGHTING. SHE WAS KINDA LAYIN' BACK, BUT YOU NEVER KNOW. I THINK LAILA'S BIG MISTAKE WAS SHE DID WHAT SHE WAS ASKED BUT NOTHING MORE. AT THIS POINT OF THE COMPETITION, JUST THE SLIGHTEST MISSTEP AND YOU'RE GOING HOME. SOMETHING'S HAPPENING. CARSON: I HEAR 'EM. OH! (BROOKE EXHALES) WOW. HOW WAS IT? YOU GUYS. IT WAS ROUGH. IT WAS A LITTLE ROUGH. I GET IT, LIKE GOVERNOR SCHWARZENEGGER WAS SAYING, WHEN YOU DIDN'T HAVE A LOT OF ENERGY, BUT EVEN THOUGH I WAS LAID-BACK, I NEVER DO A WHOLE LOT OF TALKING. YEAH. I'M A WINNER. I DON'T LIKE TO LOSE. SO, YES, I'M GONNA BRING IT, AND IT'S GONNA MAKE MY DADDY PROUD. (CLICKS TONGUE) SO, TOMORROW, WE'VE GOT A DAY OFF. DID YOU KNOW THAT? NO, WE DON'T. I'M LYING! OH! (LAUGHS) TOMORROW WE GOTTA START THIS ALL OVER AGAIN. THE STAKES ARE HIGHER NOW. IT'S, LIKE, OH MY GOD, I'M REALLY CLOSE. I CAN ALMOST SMELL IT. (LAUGHS) THREE ON THREE. AMAZING. NOW WE CAN` NOW WE CAN PLAY BASKETBALL. WE GO NEXT!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC) GOOD MORNING, EVERYBODY. ALL: GOOD MORNING. AND WELCOME TO GOLD'S GYM. WELL, THIS IS THE GYM WHERE I STARTED TRAINING WHEN I FIRST CAME TO AMERICA. OH, WOW. BUT NOT JUST ME. THE BEST BODYBUILDING CHAMPIONS, ATHLETES IN GENERAL, ALL CAME HERE TO TRAIN WITH THE BEST EQUIPMENT. BUT OF COURSE, THE EQUIPMENT BUSINESS HAS EVOLVED. NOW IT'S A $4 BILLION BUSINESS. AND THIS WILL BE YOUR NEXT TASK ` SELL MODERN, NEW GYM EQUIPMENT THROUGH QVC. WITH ME TODAY'S LEEZA GIBBONS, MY SPECIAL BOARDROOM ADVISER AND EXPERT ON DIRECT SALES. SHE'S SOLD OVER $1 BILLION WORTH OF GOODS. AND SHE'S ALSO BEEN THE WINNER OF LAST YEAR'S CELEBRITY APPRENTICE. GO AHEAD, LEEZA. YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE THIS TASK. FROM FOUR PIECES OF EQUIPMENT PROVIDED YOU BY QVC, YOU WILL NEGOTIATE FOR THE ONE PIECE WHICH YOU WOULD LIKE TO SELL. YOU WILL PRICE YOUR ITEM, CREATE YOUR PITCH, AND THEN YOU WILL HAVE EIGHT MINUTES TO SELL YOUR EXERCISE EQUIPMENT LIVE FROM MUSCLE BEACH. MM. THIS IS NOW GETTING DOWN TO THE WIRE. EVERY TASK IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN EVER. SO PICK YOUR PROJECT MANAGER AND TRY TO IMPRESS ME. I FEEL LIKE IT'S MY TURN. I'LL DO IT. I MEAN, I'VE BEEN ON QVC. I HAVEN'T BEEN ON QVC. WITH THE FEEDBACK THAT I GOT IN THE LAST BOARDROOM, I DID WANT TO BE THE PROJECT MANAGER. BUT I DON'T HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE WITH QVC. YOU GOT THIS? YEAH. YEAH. I FEEL LIKE THIS IS RIGHT IN YOUR ALLEY. YEAH, OF COURSE. I'M RIGHT HERE WITH YOU. OK, COOL. I'LL DO IT. BOY GEORGE: I FEEL LIKE THIS IS A TASK FOR YOU. WELL, I HAVE SOLD ON QVC. SO THIS IS PERFECT. AND I'LL NEED TO RELY ON YOU AS FAR AS, LIKE, WHAT THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT IS. EXACTLY. ALL RIGHT, PRIMA, WHO IS YOUR PROJECT MANAGER? I'M GONNA BE THE PROJECT MANAGER. AND, UM, I'VE SOLD A LOT OF STUFF ON QVC. WHISPERS: A LOT. SO I THINK` YEAH, I THINK THIS IS MY WORLD, SO I'LL TAKE IT ON. WELL, TERRIFIC. YOU'RE VERY COURAGEOUS. THIS IS MY THIRD TIME AS PROJECT MANAGER. I CAME OUT OF THE GATE REALLY STRONG, AND I THINK PEOPLE THOUGHT, 'WELL, HE'S GONNA PETER OUT.' AND I'M LIKE, 'OH, NO, NO, NO, NO. 'I'VE BEEN TAKING MY VITAMINS.' I'M GONNA BE AROUND FOR A LONG TIME. I'VE BEEN WORKIN' ON MY FITNESS. NOW, HOW ABOUT ARETE? WHO IS YOUR PROJECT MANAGER? I'LL BE PROJECT MANAGER. I'VE ALSO BEEN ON QVC, AND I'VE DONE MANY DIFFERENT PROJECTS WITH FITNESS EQUIPMENT, SO I FEEL CONFIDENT ABOUT TAKING ON THIS PROJECT. CARSON IS THE QVC GOD. BUT THIS IS ALSO BROOKE'S WORLD. SO IF ANYONE IS GONNA LEAD US IN A BATTLE AGAINST CARSON, I'M GLAD IT'S BROOKE. WELL, TERRIFIC. YOU WILL GET $25,000 AS THE WINNING PROJECT MANAGER, BUT THERE'S MATCHING FUNDS OF $25,000 FROM QVC, SO THAT MAKES IT ALL TOGETHER $50,000 GOES TO THE WINNING PROJECT MANAGER'S FAVOURITE CHARITY, ALL RIGHT? SO I WILL SEE YOU ALL TOMORROW IN THE BOARDROOM, WHERE ANOTHER CELEBRITY WILL BE FIRED. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, GOVERNOR. THANKS. GOOD LUCK. LET'S DO THIS, GUYS. HASTA LA VISTA,... BABIES. (DRAMATIC MUSIC) HI. HI. GOOD MORNING. HOW ARE YOU? GOOD TO SEE YOU. CARSON. YEAH, NICE TO MEET YOU. FIRST WE MET PETE MCKENNA, WHO IS REALLY THE EXPERT ON THESE FOUR DIFFERENT EXERCISE EQUIPMENTS THAT WE'LL HAVE TO CHOOSE FROM. ALL RIGHT, SO, LET'S GO THROUGH THE PRODUCT. WE HAVE THE DOUBLEFLEX TOTAL BODY GYM, THE OBSIDIAN SLIDE BOARD, THE OVAL JUMPER AND THE FLEX CORE 8. ARE THEY ALL IN STOCK? NO. TWO OF THEM ARE GONNA BE ADVANCED ORDERS. THE FLEX CORE 8 AND THE OBSIDIAN SLIDE BOARD SHIP FOUR OR SIX WEEKS LATER. OK. NO, NO, NO, NO, NO. RUN FOR THE HILLS. WE WANT THE ONE THAT'S AVAILABLE NOW. SO, WHERE DO YOU PUT THE WEIGHT, THEN? YOU SNAP IT ON TO THE` YOU PUT THE DISCS` OH, OK. YEAH, SO YOU SLAP 'EM ON TO THIS. OVER THE YEARS, I'VE BOUGHT A LOT OF THESE SORT OF, YOU KNOW, AB ROLLERS, THINGS LIKE THAT, SO THE DOUBLEFLEX THING I THOUGHT WAS ACTUALLY SOMETHING THAT I WOULD BUY. THIS IS KINDA FUN. I JUST WANTED TO AVOID BIG, CUMBERSOME THINGS, BECAUSE THEY ALWAYS END UP BECOMING, LIKE, HANGERS OF YOUR CLOTHES. (CHUCKLES) WHISPERS: ANY THOUGHTS? ANYTHING YOU GUYS WANNA SAY? WELL, I LIKE THIS, BECAUSE IT'S EASY. ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS PULL IT OUTTA THE BOX, YOU GOTTA THROW YOUR BOOTIES ON. AND VISUALLY... THIS IS BROOKE'S WHEELHOUSE. SHE FEELS REALLY COMFORTABLE WITH THE OBSIDIAN SLIDE BOARD. AND I DEFERRED TO BROOKE AND LAILA, BECAUSE THEY'RE THE TARGET DEMOGRAPHIC, AND THEY FELT THIS PRODUCT SPOKE TO THEM. CARSON: I'M THE MAKEOVER GUY. I'M USUALLY TALKING ABOUT FASHION. BUT I DON'T KNOW A LOT ABOUT FITNESS EQUIPMENT, AND THAT'S WHY I'M GONNA RELY ON LISA, WHO IS ACTUALLY VERY FIT AND HAS ALWAYS WORKED OUT. SHE WORKED OUT AT THE GOLD'S GYM. HER JERSEY WAS ON THE WALL. SHE'S RIGHT UP THERE WITH ALL THE OTHER HOCKEY PLAYERS. OK. WE WANT THE DOUBLEFLEX TOTAL BODY GYM BY OYO FITNESS. OH, GOOD. OK. AND WE WANT THE OBSIDIAN SLIDE BOARD WITH WORKOUT DVDS, BOOTIES AND MITTS. WELL, THAT WAS EASY. WELL, THAT WAS EASY. IT WAS A PLEASURE DOING BUSINESS WITH YOU GUYS. I THOUGHT I WAS GONNA HAVE TO VASELINE MY FACE AND FIGHT YOU. OK, SEE YA! ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT. WELL, THAT WAS EASY ENOUGH. GOOD. (INTRIGUING MUSIC) THIS LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING` IT LOOKS LIKE A DISCOVERY. I WOULD BUY THAT IN A HEARTBEAT. THESE ARE ESSENTIALLY MOMS. YOU KNOW, 30-, 40-, 50-YEAR-OLD MOMS. AND THE END USER AT HOME, THEY CAN RELATE TO YOUR STORY. YEAH. BOY GEORGE LOST 94 POUNDS. HE'S GONNA BE OUR TESTIMONIAL. HIS STORY IS SO COMPELLING, AND IT IS SO RELATABLE. MY THING WHEN I WENT ON QVC, EVERYONE ELSE WAS SO, LIKE, DRY AND EVERYTHING, AND I WOULD BRING THE ENERGY AND THE HUMOUR, AND THEY LOVED IT. IF YOU GET PEOPLE LAUGHING RELATABLE. 'THIS GUY IS FUNNY. I WANNA CALL IN.' I'M GONNA BE THE FRONTMAN. I KNOW A LOT ABOUT THE FORMAT. LISA, WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO HAVE A PRODUCER. THE PRODUCER IS THE PERSON WHO SITS IN THE TRUCK WITH THE HEADSET ON. RIGHT. ARE YOU OK WITH THAT? (TENSE MUSIC) I GOTTA BE. BUT LET ME ASK YOU ` THERE'S NO WAY FOR ME TO GET ON CAMERA. I'M NOT EVEN SAYING FOR ME AS THE ATHLETE, BUT I'M SAYING AS THE WOMAN. BOY GEORGE'S STORY ABOUT THE WEIGHT LOSS MAY BE COMPELLING. BUT I'M A MOM. I EXERCISE, CLEARLY. I'M FIT. IF WE WIN, IT'S ALL GRAVY. IF WE DON'T, YOU'RE GONNA GO DOWN FOR THAT DECISION, FOR NOT HAVING ME ON STAGE. WE'RE GONNA REALLY MISS IF WE DON'T HAVE ANOTHER WOMAN. (ENERGETIC MUSIC) ALL RIGHT, TEAM, WHAT WE HAVE GOING FOR US IS THAT WE ARE THE CONSUMER HERE. MM-HM. WE'RE GONNA BE ABLE TO SPEAK TO THE WOMAN AT HOME WHO'S WATCHING, WHICH CARSON... I DON'T THINK NECESSARILY WILL BE ABLE TO DO. OUR TASK THIS WEEK IS TO CREATE A LIVE SEGMENT ON QVC TO SELL FITNESS EQUIPMENT. ARE WE BELIEVABLE ENOUGH? CAN WE MAKE IT RELATABLE? AND CAN WE BE THE BEST SALESWOMEN OUT THERE? I NEED TO FIGHT FOR EVERYTHING THAT I WANT, BECAUSE WE ARE, LIKE, DANGEROUSLY CLOSE TO THE END, AND I CAME HERE TO PLAY, AND I CAME HERE TO WIN. AND I THINK, LAILA, THAT WE HAVE TO TAKE THIS TOGETHER, COS I THINK WE BOTH BRING SOMETHING DIFFERENT, AND WE'LL COMPLEMENT EACH OTHER SO NICELY. TALKING ABOUT ON AIR? DEFINITELY, YEAH. WE GOT THIS. I HAVE LAILA ALI, A WORLD-CHAMPION BOXER. I WANTED TO BRING HER ON CAMERA WITH ME AS HOST. WHICH MEANS YOU'RE GONNA BE PRODUCING. OK. IT'S ALL GONNA BOIL DOWN TO THOSE LIVE NUMBERS COMING IN. MATT HAS A BIG RESPONSIBILITY IN THIS TASK. HE HAS TO TELL ME, 'THIS IS WORKING. DO MORE OF THAT. DO LESS OF THAT.' LET'S TALK PRICE A LITTLE BIT. THE ONE THING THAT WE HAVE POSSIBLY WORKING AGAINST US IS OURS DOESN'T SHIP OUT RIGHT AWAY. SO WHY DON'T WE DO 109.99? WE NEED TO GET AS MUCH MONEY AS WE POSSIBLY CAN, ESPECIALLY BEING THAT THE SHIPPING DELAY ON THE PRODUCT COULD REDUCE OUR SALES. TIM AND CARISSA? YES. HOW ARE YOU? HI. I'M BROOKE. MATT. HI. NICE TO MEET YOU. LET'S GO PLAY A LITTLE BIT. I'VE GOT TWO GREAT FITNESS MODELS. I WANNA GET THEM FAMILIAR WITH THE PRODUCT. I JUST WANNA GET TO KNOW IT, USE IT, EXERCISE ON IT SO THAT I CAN SPEAK FROM A PLACE OF THIS IS WHERE I FEEL IT AND THIS IS WHY. I LOVE THESE. I THINK THESE ARE GREAT, RIGHT? AH-HA! VERY HARD, RIGHT? YEAH. BROOKE LOOKED AMAZING. PEOPLE AT HOME SEE THIS, AND IF THEY FEEL THE OBSIDIAN SLIDE BOARD IS RESPONSIBLE FOR IT, THEY'RE BUYIN' IT. HELL, I MIGHT TAKE TWO. THAT'S GREAT BOOTY, RIGHT? YEAH. AH! FOR OUR FITNESS MODELS, I WOULD PREFER TO HAVE TWO WOMEN. I` I` YOU KNOW` OH. HE'S HOT. HI, FITNESS MODELS. HELLO. YOU LOOK SO HEALTHY. I'M CARSON. HI. SOPHIE. SOPHIE. HI. WHAT'S YOUR NAME? PAUL. OH, PAUL. OH, OH, HOLD ON, PAUL. OK. PAUL LOOKS JUST LIKE A YOUNG HARRY CONNICK JR, SO I'M SLIGHTLY DISTRACTED. WORKING THE BUNS. (EXHALES) EXTREME FLEXING. THIS HAS TAKEN A TURN FOR THE BETTER. I AM PUMPED. (AIR HISSES) I THOUGHT IT LOOKED GREAT. ARE YOU OK? I'M FINE. JUST A BOY AND HIS POLE. SO LET'S JUST GO THROUGH, CARSON, ONE MORE TIME. RICK'S GONNA GIVE US OUR INTRO. YES. AND THEN WE'LL HAVE A PLAYBOOK FOR YOU, LISA, SO YOU CAN BE IN MY EAR, SAYING, 'MOVE ON TO SO AND SO.' I'M GONNA TYPE IT UP. I'M GONNA TYPE IT UP SO I CAN BE ABLE TO NAVIGATE YOU. IF I'M THE PRODUCER, I'M GONNA PRODUCE THE CRAP OUTTA THIS SHOW, BECAUSE THAT'S HOW I'M MADE. SO I THINK MAYBE HAVING ONE PERSON AT A TIME` NO, DO BOTH PEOPLE. MM-HM. BUT JUST LIKE THAT PICTURE IS, THEY'RE STAGGERED. SO YOU SHOULD ALMOST HAVE THAT IN YOUR HAND AT ALL TIMES. YEAH. SO ANY SHOTS I GET WITH YOU, YOU HAVE THAT. GEORGE, MAKE SURE IT'S FACING OUT. ARE WE THIS WAY? YES, LOVE. I NEED TO SEE THE PRODUCT. LISA WAS ABSOLUTELY BOSSING EVERYONE AROUND. (CHUCKLES) IT FELT LIKE A LITTLE BIT PLAYACTING TO ME. YOU KNOW, LIKE, 'I'M A PRODUCER, AND I'M GONNA ACT LIKE A PRODUCER.' NO, YOU'RE LISA LESLIE, (CHUCKLES) ACTUALLY; YOU'RE NOT OPRAH. DO YOU KNOW WHAT OUR PRICE POINT'S GONNA BE? I THINK PUTTING OVER 100 IS OFF-PUTTING FOR SOMETHING. SO IF WE DO $99... THIS LADY IS AT HOME, SHE'S MANAGING PROBABLY A JOB, PROBABLY A FAMILY AND RUNNING HER HOUSEHOLD. SHE'S GONNA THINK LONG AND HARD ABOUT SPENDING MORE THAN 100 BUCKS ON SOMETHING. HOW'S IT GOING? FANTASTIC. YOU LOOK SO FRESH, AND WE ALL FEEL SO HAGGARD AND GROSS. LEEZA GIBBONS ARRIVES. IT'S LIKE I'VE JUST SEEN THE VIRGIN MARY. SHE'S A FORMER WINNER OF CELEBRITY APPRENTICE. SHE CALMS ME. WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THE PIECE THAT YOU HAVE? COS I LOVE IT. I THINK IT'S GREAT. DO YOU LOVE IT? I REALLY LIKE IT. YOU LIKE IT TOO. MY THING ` AND I'M GONNA BE THE ON-AIR, YOU KNOW, KIND OF, LIKE, EXPERT` AND WHERE ARE YOU? I'M THE PRODUCER. SO THE PRODUCER WILL BE DOING WHAT? WELL, I CAN TELL HIM ABOUT SALES, BUT ALSO, THIS IS MY LAYOUT TO KEEP US ON PLAN. SHE CAN ALSO KEEP ME ON PLAN. MM-HM. AND PRICED WHAT? PRICED UNDER $100. 100 BUCKS. I THINK THAT PRIMA WITH DOUBLEFLEX, THEY SEEM TO BE UNANIMOUS ON THE CHOICE, THEY'RE UNDER $100. BUT TO HAVE LISA LESLIE IN THE TRUCK MAY NOT BE THE WISEST CHOICE. YOU HAVE AN ATHLETE,... MM-HM. ...AND SHE'S IN THE BOOTH. YES. HOW COME? SHE IS OBVIOUSLY ALREADY IN GREAT SHAPE, AND THE VIEWER AT HOME IS LIKE, 'WELL, OBVIOUSLY, SHE DOESN'T NEED THIS PRODUCT.' GEORGE IS NOT THE POSTER CHILD FOR THE QVC CUSTOMER. AND I'M NOT INTIMIDATING. I HAVE` BUT HIS STORY IS THE SAME AS THE QVC CUSTOMER. IF I COULD SHOW THE PICTURE OF MYSELF... COME ON. CAN YOU IMAGINE? THAT'S YOU? YEAH, FIVE YEARS AGO. COME ON. WHOA. YEAH. GEORGE IS CERTAINLY NOT THE INSTANTLY RELATABLE BUYER NEXT DOOR. BUT HE HAS A WEIGHT-LOSS STORY. HE KNOWS WHAT THIS AUDIENCE IS STRUGGLING WITH. HE COULD BE A REAL SECRET WEAPON IN PUTTING THEM OVER THE TOP. CAN'T WAIT TO BE IMPRESSED TOMORROW. GOOD LUCK. THANK YOU SO MUCH. OK. THANK YOU. GOOD LUCK. THANK YOU. THANKS, LEEZA. BROOKE: YOU CAN MAKE IT AS EASY AS YOU CHOOSE. HOW'S IT GOING? HELLO! HI, HI, HI. IT'S GOING GREAT. IS IT? GOOD. I'M EXCITED TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR PRODUCT AND WHY YOU CHOSE IT. WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS IS THERE'S NO SETUP, IT'S 2 POUNDS. YOU ROLL IT OUT. YOU'RE READY TO GO. AND WHAT'S YOUR PRICE POINT, BROOKE? 109.99. OVER $100 CAN BE A BARRIER FOR PEOPLE WHEN THEY'RE BUYING ON QVC. I THINK IT'S MORE COSTLY THAN IT NEEDS TO BE. NOW, WHEN THEY ORDER IT, HOW SOON DO THEY GET IT? ONE MONTH. A MONTH? A MONTH. A MONTH? TWO OF THE PRODUCTS HAD A MONTH DELAY. SO WHY DID YOU PICK ONE THAT HAD A DELAY? I-I DIDN'T CARE FOR THE OTHER PRODUCTS AS MUCH. I WAS BANKING ON MY ABILITY TO REALLY SELL THIS PRODUCT, BUT THEN LEEZA LOOKED AT ME LIKE MY MOTHER WOULD LOOK AT ME, LIKE 'WHAT DID YOU JUST DO?' AND THAT'S WHEN I GOT REALLY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SHIP DATE. I-I-I ABSOLUTELY APPRECIATE THAT. YOU'VE GOT AN EXPENSIVE PRODUCT THAT YOU CAN'T HAVE NOW. OH NO. HAVE I JUST MADE A HUGE MISTAKE? YOU GIRLS HAVE GOT YOUR WORK CUT OUT FOR YOU. You don't have a girlfriend. You don't need a lot of calls or text. You don't have a girlfriend. You don't need a lot of calls or text. You need data ` for dating sites, like Honey Badger. (LAUGHS) You do have a girlfriend. You need less data and more calls ` lovey-dovey calls. # You make me... # You don't have a girlfriend again. She won't return your calls. You need more text. Things change. Now your Prepay can too. Get more of what you need and less of what you don't with Vodafone My Flex Prepay. (ENERGETIC MUSIC) RICK DOMEIER POSHLY: WHERE ARE THE CELEBRITIES?! GERMAN ACCENT: WE ARE RIGHT HERE. GOOD MORNING. (LAUGHS) AND WE'RE READY TO PUMP YOU UP. I WAS REALLY EXCITED WHEN WE SHOWED UP TO THE HISTORIC MUSCLE BEACH. YOU ALL LOOK FABULOUS. THANK YOU. SO DO YOU. FABULOUS PEOPLE. HOW ARE YOU? WE MET RICK, WHO'S THE HOST OF THE QVC SHOW. SO I'M YOUR PRODUCER. YES. HERE ARE YOUR CARDS AND NOTES. MUCH TO MY CHAGRIN, THERE ARE NO SHIRTLESS HOTTIES WORKING OUT BEHIND US. AND I SAID, 'WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?' IT WAS LIKE CHRISTMAS MORNING, AND YOU RUN DOWNSTAIRS TO SEE WHAT SANTA BROUGHT, AND THEY SAY, 'YOU'RE JEWISH.' THIS RED LINE HERE IS MEASURING PHONE ACTIVITY IN REAL TIME. ANY TIME YOU A SPIKE OR A LIFT IN CALL VOLUME, OUR VIEWERS ARE REACTING POSITIVE TO SOMETHING THAT'S BEING SAID OR SOMETHING THAT'S BEING DEMO'D. SO WHEN I SEE HIGH PHONE ACTIVITY, I'M LIKE, 'STAY WITH THAT. ASK ANOTHER QUESTION.' THINGS LIKE THAT I COULD DO? RIGHT. HI, LEEZA. HOW ARE YOU? I'M PRETTY FANTASTIC. ALL RIGHT. STAND BY. GOOD LUCK. ALL RIGHT, I'LL BE BACK IN JUST SECOND WITH OUR TODAY'S SPECIAL VALUE, BUT RICK DOMEIER'S GONNA JOIN YOU NOW. HELLO, EVERYBODY. WHAT'S GOING ON? WELL, WE ARE LIVE... FROM MUSCLE BEACH IN VENICE, CALIFORNIA, AND JOINING US RIGHT NOW IS CARSON KRESSLEY FROM CELEBRITY APPRENTICE, WITH A VERY SPECIAL` WELL, HELLO. I'M A HUGGER. SORRY. (LAUGHS) 'I THINK PROBABLY OUR PRESENTATION, ME VERSUS BROOKE, PROBABLY VERY SIMILAR. 'I'VE DONE A LOT OF THIS. SHE'S DONE A LOT OF THIS.' I THINK WHAT IT'S GONNA BOIL DOWN TO IS WHO CAN REALLY CONNECT WITH THE VIEWERS. I DON'T LOVE TO WORK OUT, BUT I LOVE TO WORK OUT WITH THIS. HE'S JUMPING RIGHT INTO HIS PRODUCT. THAT'S GOOD. WELL, LET ME CLARIFY WHAT THIS IS. IT'S BRAND NEW TO QVC. YES. IT'S CALLED THE DOUBLEFLEX TOTAL BODY GYM. AND I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING ` HOW IS THIS THING GONNA BE A TOTAL BODY GYM? WELL, IN A SECOND, WE'RE GONNA SHOW YOU HOW IT WORKS YOU OUT FORM HEAD TO TOE. YOU CAN ADJUST THE RESISTANCE. TO MAKE IT MORE CHALLENGING. SO IT'S ABOUT RESISTANCE. IT'S NOT ABOUT CARRYING AROUND HEAVY WEIGHTS IN YOUR BAG. OK. CARSON'S DOING A GOOD JOB. YEAH. HE ALWAYS DOES A GREAT JOB. HE'S VERY GOOD ON THE MIC. HERE WE GO, RICK. TELL US THE PRICE. A BRAND-NEW ITEM HERE ON QVC THAT CARSON'S BRINGING US IS TWO WEEKLY PAYMENTS OF $49 AND CHANGE. LET'S PUT IT TO WORK. WOULD YOU, PLEASE? YEAH, LET'S SEE HOW IT WORKS. OK, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THOSE TOTAL BODY MAKEOVERS. COME OVER HERE, RICK. I WANT YOU TRY IT TOO. EVERYTHING'S GOING GOOD. BUT NOW I LOOK DOWN TO SEE IF WE HAVE ANY SPIKES IN SALES, BUT I DON'T SEE THAT PHONE ACTIVITY CHANGING ONE WAY OR THE OTHER. AND SO I STICK WITH OUR PLAN THAT WAS ALREADY PUT IN PLACE. RICK, HOW MUCH DOES IT WEIGH? HOW MUCH DOES IT WEIGH? I'M NOT LIFTING BIG, HEAVY WEIGHTS. ABOUT 2 POUNDS. 2 POUNDS? YEAH. THAT'S A BIG SELLING FEATURE THAT TOOK A LONG TIME TO GET TO.

WITH LIVE TV, ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN,. HELP ME HELP YOU! THAT'S MY PREFERENCE ` TO KINDA LET IT PLAY OUT REAL. I LOVE LIVE TELEVISION. I LOVE THE ENERGY OF LIVE, I LOVE THE SPONTANEITY OF LIVE. IT MIGHT FREAK SOME PEOPLE OUT, BUT I THINK THE QVC SHOPPERS ARE REALLY GONNA RESPOND TO THAT. DAMMIT! LIVE TV. I GOT NOTHIN'! THAT'S ALL I GOT. NOTHIN'! Uh... You can never have too much coinage with Burger King's new Change Range, starting from just $1 ` and the new Bacon Cheeseburger for just $3. (UPBEAT MUSIC) HERE WE GO! BODY-LIFTING, HIP-CARVING, LEG-TONING... THIS IS EITHER GONNA BE HER SHINING MOMENT, OR IT COULD BE FATAL. FULL-BODY... MY BIGGEST CONCERNS GOING IN ARE THE SHIPPING DATES MY JOB IS JUST TO MAKE IT SPECIAL ENOUGH THAT THEY'RE GONNA WAIT FOR IT AND, YOU KNOW, PAY TOP DOLLAR. BROOKE, DID YOU COPY? HELLO, HELLO.

I SEE THE PHONE CALLS START TO SLOW DOWN. THEY'RE NOT LIKING THE MODELS. THEY WANNA SEE BROOKE. LET ME SHOW YOU, FOR EXAMPLE, ONE OF MY FAVOURITES. OK, WATCH THIS. I NEED TO STOP THIS TREND OF THE CALLS GOING DOWN. SO I'M JUST TRYING TO THROW OUT SUGGESTIONS. YOU'RE A BUSY, WORKING MOM. I'VE GOT FOUR KIDS. IT'S ALL ABOUT THE ABS. YOU'RE SLIDING. THAT'S PRETTY IMPRESSIVE. I'M CLOSING MY RIBCAGE. I WANT LAILA. THEY'RE HALFWAY THROUGH, AND NO LAILA. I AM CARVING OUT MY STOMACH. ARE WE SEEING THAT, AMERICA? LET'S GET READY FOR LAILA.

YES. THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE MOVES. THIS IS WHAT MADE ME FALL IN LOVE WITH THIS THE MOMENT I SAW IT. I SAID, 'IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S SO MUCH FUN.' I BET YOU THE NUMBERS ARE SPIKING WITH LAILA RIGHT NOW. WHICH MEANS SHE COULD'VE BEEN IN EARLIER. THERE WE GO! WHEN LAILA CAME ON, WE SAW THE NUMBERS GIVE A GOOD SPIKE.

WELL, TODAY YOU WERE IN ONE OF MY FAVOURITE PLACES ` MUSCLE BEACH, VENICE. THIS WAS THE PLACE WHERE I PREPARED FOR THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS AND THE MR OLYMPIA AND MR UNIVERSE. BECAUSE YOU COULD WORK OUT THERE, SWEAT, GET TANNED AT THE SAME TIME, SO IT WAS THE PERFECT PLACE. I LOVED IT. BUT YOU GUYS WERE THERE WORKING ` SELLING. SELLING, SELLING, SELLING. AND EXERCISING AT THE SAME TIME. HOW DID IT GO? TELL ME, CARSON. UH, I THOUGHT WE MADE A GREAT SHOWING. WE HAVE A FABULOUS PRODUCT IN THE DOUBLEFLEX. I THINK WE WERE ABLE TO DEMONSTRATE IT, WHICH I THINK IS KEY ON QVC. AND I THINK IT WAS A PRODUCT THAT HOPEFULLY SPOKE TO THE PERSON WATCHING AT HOME, THE CUSTOMER. AND OUR TEAM FUNCTIONED BEAUTIFULLY. LISA WAS IN THE CONTROL BOOTH, KEEPING US ON TIME AND ON TASK. GEORGE PROVIDED A FANTASTIC TESTIMONIAL. AND I THINK I WAS AN ENERGETIC, ENTHUSIASTIC EXPERT ON STAGE, REALLY TALKING ABOUT PRODUCT FEATURES. MM-HM. SO HOW DID YOU PICK THE PRODUCT IN THE FIRST PLACE? UH, WE ALL KIND OF GRAVITATED TO THE DOUBLEFLEX, BECAUSE IT WAS LIGHTWEIGHT, IT WAS IN STOCK IMMEDIATELY, I TOOK IT HOME AND DID THE FULL WORKOUT. AFTER USING IT, I ACTUALLY FELT A DIFFERENCE. I WAS LIKE, I'M GONNA WEAR A TIGHT T-SHIRT TODAY, BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE IT MADE ME LOOK BETTER. I CAN TELL. I MEAN, YOU'RE ALL PUMPED UP. DON'T I LOOK PUMPED UP? YOU LOOK REALLY PUMPED. IT'S PROBABLY THE PADDING I PUT IN THIS SUIT RIGHT HERE. (LAUGHTER) BUT THANK YOU. NOW, LISA, YOU WERE IN THE CONTROL ROOM, KEEPING A TAB ON WHAT SELLS REALLY WELL. DID YOU COMMUNICATE THAT TO THEM RIGHT AWAY? ABSOLUTELY. WE HAD A WELL PLANNED OUT PLAN FOR THE SHOW, START TO FINISH, AND THEN OF COURSE, GETTING BOY GEORGE UP THERE IN TIME TO MAKE SURE HE HAD TIME FOR HIS TESTIMONY. SO, UM, IT WORKED OUT GREAT IN TERMS OF OUR PLAN FROM START TO FINISH. LISA, DO YOU AGREE WITH THIS`? A, UH, COLLECTIVE DECISION TO PUT YOU IN THE CONTROL ROOM? AS OPPOSED TO HAVING YOU BEING IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA AND ACTUALLY EXERCISING? WELL, WE HAD A SHORT DISCUSSION ABOUT IT. I TOLD THEM, YOU KNOW, AS A MOM, I COULD CLEARLY SELL THE PRODUCT AND GET OUT THERE AND DO SOME EXERCISES. I'VE HAD TWO CHILDREN. UM, BUT HE THOUGHT THAT IT WOULD BE GREAT TO HAVE, YOU KNOW, GEORGE'S STORY, THE FACT THAT HE'D LOST ALL OF THIS WEIGHT. CARSON. YES. YOU'VE GOT A HOT HAND WITH LISA, THE FOUR-TIME OLYMPIC CHAMP. MM-HM. WHY DIDN'T YOU PLAY IT? THE THINKING BEHIND IT WAS THAT WE'D USE TWO FITNESS MODELS. THEY REALLY REPRESENT THE PERSON WHO WORKS OUT A LOT. THEY WERE SPEAKING TO THAT AUDIENCE, AND I DIDN'T WANNA KNOCK PEOPLE OVER THE HEAD WITH ANOTHER SUPER-ATHLETIC PERSON. I WANTED TO HAVE SOMEONE WHO WAS MAYBE A LITTLE BIT MORE REAL. BUT LET ME ASK YOU SOMETHING. YES. LISA, DID YOU REALLY THINK THAT THE WOMEN THAT WATCH THE SHOW, THAT THEY REALLY WOULD RELATE TO CARSON TALKING ABOUT THE FLABBINESS OFF THE BACK OF THE ARMS? OR THAT THEY LOSE LITTLE CONTROL IN THE OUTER THIGH AS THEY GET OLDER? OR THE INNER THIGHS GETTING A LITTLE FLABBY? (CHUCKLING) THAT THEY LISTEN TO CARSON TALKING ABOUT THAT? OR DO YOU THINK IF A WOMAN WOULD'VE TALKED ABOUT IT AND USED THE MACHINE AND CRUNCHED TOGETHER AND SAY, 'THIS FIRMS THE PECTORAL MUSCLE, AND YOU'RE GONNA FEEL YOUNG AGAIN. 'LOOK AT THIS. IT'S HAPPENING ALREADY RIGHT NOW.' BECAUSE WHEN A WOMAN TALKS TO A WOMAN ` YOU, BECAUSE YOU'RE LOOKING SO FANTASTIC AT YOUR AGE,... (LAUGHTER) ...EVERY WOMAN LOOKS AT YOU... AT MY AGE? BUT, I MEAN, IT'S` IT'S` IT'S UNBELIEVABLE. IT'S` I JUST` I'M AMAZED BY THAT. THE QUESTION IS REALLY DO YOU THINK YOU COULD GET THIS ACROSS TO THOSE WOMEN, OR WHAT? I DO. I THINK I'VE HAD A VERY SUCCESSFUL CAREER WITH THAT VERY NETWORK, RELATING TO THE FEMALE CUSTOMER, AS BEING SOMEONE WHO CAN GUIDE THEM THROUGH DRESSING FOR THEIR BODY TYPES. BUT, CARSON, WHEN YOU DID THAT, YOU DIDN'T HAVE SOMEBODY LIKE LISA ON YOUR SIDE, RIGHT, SO THE POINT IS, IF YOU LOOK AT THE THREE OF YOU,... MM-HM. THE OBVIOUS CHOICE WOULD'VE BEEN FOR LISA, BECAUSE SHE'S NOT ONLY AN INCREDIBLE ATHLETE; SHE'S ALSO A MOTHER, SHE'S A WOMAN. THE OBVIOUS CHOICE WOULD'VE BEEN FOR HER TO BE IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA AND FOR YOU TO BRING IN YOUR QVC EXPERTISE INTO THE CONTROL ROOM TO ANALYSE THE DATA AND GUIDE IT FROM THERE. BROOKE, WHY DID YOU STEP UP TO BE PROJECT MANAGER? WELL, I LOVE THIS SPACE. HEALTH AND FITNESS IS A BIG PART OF MY LIFE. I WAS ANXIOUS AND EAGER TO TAKE ON THAT RESPONSIBILITY AGAIN TODAY. I THINK THIS IS THE TIME TO SEIZE EVERY MOMENT. IT'S THAT STAGE IN THE COMPETITION. AND I HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH FITNESS PRODUCTS. I'VE BEEN ON QVC. I'VE DONE A WHOLE SLEW OF INFOMERCIALS. AND I'M REALLY PASSIONATE ABOUT THE SUBJECT MATTER. BROOKE, YOU WERE FANTASTIC. WE KNOW WHY THEY WERE HIDING MATT. (LAUGHTER) THAT'S OBVIOUS. THE SCHWARZENEGGERS ARE KILLING ME. BUT, LAILA, IT WOULD'VE BEEN NICE TO SEE MORE OF YOU. MATT, HOW DID YOU DECIDE TO GO AND BE IN THE CONTROL ROOM? WELL, WE TALKED ABOUT IT, AND WE REALISED WE HAVE TWO WOMEN WHO LIVE IN THE FITNESS SPACE, AND WHO, MOST IMPORTANTLY, ARE PROBABLY GONNA BE THE CLOSEST TO THE DEMOGRAPHIC OF THE PEOPLE WATCHING AT HOME. TO NOT USE THESE TWO WOULD'VE BEEN, I THINK, A MISSED OPPORTUNITY. AND SO I FELT, LOOK, I'M FANTASTIC AT ORGANISATIONAL SKILLS,... YES, YOU ARE. ...AND SO THEN I KNEW I COULD BE IN BROOKE'S EAR TO TRY TO REACT TO ANYTHING THAT WENT ON AND FEED HER THE INFORMATION THAT SHE NEEDED. HOW DID YOU MAKE THAT DECISION? WE WERE LOOKING AT THE FEEDBACK WE WERE GETTING FROM THE PHONE CALLS AND TRYING TO INTERPRET IT. SO IT WAS FUN JUST TO KIND OF SAY, ALL RIGHT, WHAT ARE THE PEOPLE RESPONDING TO? AND KNOWING SHE'S A STONE-COLD PRO, I WAS THROWING THINGS AS SHE WAS TALKING. SHE WOULD SEAMLESSLY WORK IT IN. LISA, HOW DID YOU UTILISE THIS DATA? DID YOU PAY ATTENTION TO THE FEEDBACK YOU WERE GETTING, AND DID YOU COMMUNICATE THAT TO CARSON? I SAW THE FEEDBACK. UM, I DIDN'T SEE A LOT OF SPIKE FROM THE TELEPHONE ACTIVITY, SO THERE WAS NO REASON FOR ME TO INTERRUPT CARSON, WHERE I COULD SAY, 'OK, THAT MOMENT, GO BACK TO IT.' BUT I WAS DEFINITELY WATCHING THAT DATA. BROOKE, HOW DID YOU DECIDE ON THE PRICE OF THE PRODUCT? WELL, BIG DECISION. WE KNOW THAT WE WIN THIS TASK BASED ON NUMBERS AND THE AMOUNT OF UNITS SOLD, AND THIS COMPETITION HAS BEEN SO CLOSE, SO WE WANTED TO SELL AS MUCH AS WE COULD FOR THE HIGHEST PRICE POSSIBLE, SO WE WENT IN AT 109.99. THE PRODUCT ISN'T AVAILABLE. ARE YOU CONCERNED THAT THE PRODUCT WILL ARRIVE A MONTH LATER ON THE DOORSTEP? UM, I LOOKED AT THIS` COS THIS WAS A BIG DECISION. BUT I WENT FOR PASSION, AND I WENT FOR A PRODUCT THAT I REALLY BELIEVE IN, AND I KNEW THAT I CHALLENGED MYSELF, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU CAME IN TO VISIT US. AFTER YOU LEFT, I SAID, 'OH MY GOSH, WHAT HAVE I JUST DONE?' IT IS VERY CONCERNING. IT WAS CONCERNING. BECAUSE YOU HAVE TWO THINGS GOING AGAINST YOU. YOU HAVE THE HIGHER PRICE POINT, AND THERE'S A HUGE PSYCHOLOGICAL DIFFERENCE GOING FROM 99 TO 109. WE ALL KNOW THAT. THAT'S WHY A LOT OF PRODUCTS ARE PRICED AT 99. SO YOU HAVE THAT, AND NOW YOU HAVE A FOUR-WEEK DELAYED SHIPPING. I AGREE. YES, IT'S VERY CONCERNING. AND, YOU KNOW, OBVIOUSLY, CARSON, YOU AGREED, BECAUSE YOU ENDED UP PICKING THE OTHER PRODUCT AND FELT THAT THOSE WERE HUGE OBSTACLES. ARE YOU GUYS READY TO HEAR THE RESULTS? ALL: YES. OK. LEEZA. HOW DID PRIMA DO? PRIMA SOLD 88 UNITS OF THE DOUBLEFLEX FOR A TOTAL OF $8798. (APPLAUSE) WELL DONE. BRAVO. WELL DONE. THANKS. BRAVO. PATRICK, WHAT ABOUT TEAM ARETE? TEAM ARETE, YOU SOLD 156 UNITS OF THE OBSIDIAN SLIDE BOARD FOR A TOTAL OF $17,158. (APPLAUSE) THANK YOU. AND I DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TO TAKE MY SHIRT OFF! (LAUGHTER) CAN I JUST SAY... NEXT TIME. ...THAT IF THE TWO OF YOU WERE GONNA OUTSELL ME IN FITNESS, I WAS GONNA GET A BACON DOUBLE CHEESEBURGER AND JUST SLIDE MY OWN SELF TO THE CHOPPER TODAY. AND JUST BE DONE. I MEAN, HONESTLY, I WAS SO PREPARED. WELL, BROOKE, CONGRATULATIONS. THANK YOU. YOU'RE THE PROJECT MANAGER. YOU'RE GOING TO GET A TOTAL OF $50,000 TOWARDS YOUR FAVOURITE CHARITY. THANK YOU. AND SO IF YOU TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOUR CHARITY? IT'S OPERATION SMILE. IT'S ALL ABOUT FACIAL DEFORMITIES ` CLEFT PALATE, CLEFT LIP. PEOPLE ARE IN THE FIELD, READY TO CHANGE CHILDREN'S LIVES. IT'S A ONE-HOUR SURGERY. IT COSTS AS LITTLE AS $240. AND... AH! I'M SO HAPPY. I'M SO HAPPY AND GRATEFUL. (APPLAUSE) THANK YOU. CONGRATULATIONS. GO BACK, UH, TO THE WAR ROOM, ENJOY THE VICTORY, OK? ALL RIGHT. (SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC) TEAM PRIMA, YOU STAY HERE. ONE OF YOU WILL BE FIRED. OH! (BROOKE EXHALES) (SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC) WHAT HAPPENED, CARSON? WELL, I'M, YOU KNOW, HEARING THOSE NUMBERS AND HEARING, YOU KNOW, 88 VERSUS... 117, I GUESS... 156. 156. YEAH. THEY ALMOST DOUBLED YOU. OK. THAT'S A` THAT'S A HUGE NUMBER. EITHER THE CUSTOMER DIDN'T RESPOND TO OUR PRODUCT, OR THEY DIDN'T RESPOND TO OUR PRESENTATION. OR BOTH. OR BOTH. CORRECT. THEY BEAT THE PANTS OFF YOU. MM-HM. YOU DIDN'T TAKE ME ON AN EXPERIENTIAL, VISCERAL, VISUAL JOURNEY... MM-HM. ...OF WHY I HAVE TO HAVE THIS. HERE'S WHAT MY BODY'S GONNA LOOK LIKE NOW. RIGHT. AND, LISA, YOU DIDN'T SAY, 'THE PHONE'S NOT RINGING. LET'S SHIFT IT UP.' YOU DIDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING WHEN YOU SAW THAT THE NUMBERS WERE FLAT. THAT'S TRUE. I DIDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING, BECAUSE WE HAD A PARTICULAR SCRIPT THAT WE WERE GONNA MOVE TO, AND IF THE NUMBERS CHANGED` IT NEVER MOVED FROM THE START TO THE END, SO I COULD NEVER GET A GAUGE ON` THE WHOLE POINT OF WHAT WE WANTED WAS TO SAY SOMETHING IN MY EAR IF WE SEE ANYTHING SPIKE ` THEN THAT MEANS THEY'RE RESPONDING. BUT IF THEY'RE NOT RESPONDING THE WHOLE WAY THROUGH, THERE'S NOWHERE THAT I CAN SAY' 'GO BACK AND SAY THAT AGAIN.' DID YOU EVER THINK ABOUT WHEN YOU WERE FLAT, WHEN ALL THE DATA THAT CAME IN, EVERYTHING WAS FLAT, THAT YOU HAVE TO CHANGE YOUR SALES PITCH HERE? TO COMMUNICATE WITH CARSON, 'CARSON, YOU COME INTO THE CONTROL ROOM; I GO OUT THERE.' 'YOUR THING DOES NOT WORK. WE GOT TO WIN. WE GOT TO WIN. 'I GOT TO GO OUT THERE. I GOT TO DO IT. PEOPLE CANNOT RELATE TO YOU,' OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. AS THE PRODUCER, ARE YOU SAYING COULD I EXCHANGE SPOTS WITH CARSON IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SHOW? I WOULD'VE. IF I WOULD'VE SEEN THAT THINGS ARE FLAT AND THAT PEOPLE ARE NOT RESPONDING, THAT MEANS THAT THE PEOPLE THAT ARE SITTING OUT THERE ARE NOT RESPONDING TO CARSON, EVEN THOUGH CARSON IS AN EXTRAORDINARY SALESPERSON. WE'VE SEEN IT IN THE PAST. HE REALLY RELATES WELL. BUT SOMETIMES... HE'S NOT THE RIGHT GUY. AS I SAID TO YOU EARLIER, HOW DOES A WOMAN SITTING OUT THERE AT THE AGE OF 50, AND SHE LOOKS AT HER THIGHS, AND SHE SAYS, 'IT'S LIKE COTTAGE CHEESE. IT LOOKS UGLY. I CAN'T EVEN GET UNDRESSED IN FRONT OF MY HUSBAND. 'I HAVE TO HIDE BEHIND A BATHROBE.' YOU KNOW, 'I WANT TO GET RID OF ALL THIS. I WANT TO TRAIN. I WANT TO GET NEW EXERCISE EQUIPMENT.' AND SHE CANNOT RELATE TO HIM. SHE WOULD SAY, 'WHAT DOES HE KNOW ABOUT MY PROBLEM?' YOU KNOW, THAT` SHE CAN RELATE TO YOU. THAT` THAT'S TRUE. I KNOW THAT THEY COULD RELATE TO ME. BUT CARSON IS A PROJECT MANAGER MADE A DECISION. WE HAD THE DISCUSSION ` 'CARSON, I'M A MOM, I CAN RELATE TO THE AUDIENCE. THEY'RE MOSTLY WOMEN.' CARSON SAID, 'I HEAR YOU OUT, BUT I WOULD LIKE FOR BOY GEORGE TO COME OUT AND TELL HIS STORY.' AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, GEORGE WAS OUT THERE TOO SHORT. I MEAN, TO ME, IT'S LIKE KIND OF HAVING SOMEONE COME OUT AND DO A KIND OF, LIKE` A LITTLE TALK FOR A MINUTE, AND SAY, 'I LOST, YOU KNOW, 80 POUNDS, 'AND THEN, YOU KNOW, LOOK AT THE WAY I LOOK NOW, AND IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF EXERCISING, 'AND NOW I'M GONNA CONTINUE ON WITH THIS,' AND THEN WALK AWAY AGAIN. I THINK THAT WAS TOO SHORT, AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED. WELL, I COULD ONLY GO BY... IT WAS A SHORTCOMING OF YOUR TEAM. ...WHAT THE PROJECT MANAGER HAD FOR ME TO DO. I AGREE WITH THAT. IT WOULD'VE BEEN NICE` I THINK BOTH OF US AGREED THAT WE WOULD'VE LIKED TO SEE A LITTLE BIT MORE OF YOU AND HEAR MORE OF YOU, BECAUSE YOU HAVE A COMPELLING STORY. I'D LIKE TO HEAR MORE OF YOU NOW, GEORGE. YOU HAVEN'T REALLY SAID MUCH THROUGH THIS WHOLE PROCESS. WELL, BECAUSE I` YOU KNOW, BECAUSE I KINDA CAME HERE` IN HERE THINKING THAT WE'D LOST, YOU KNOW, I KINDA HAD THAT FEELING. WHEN YOU CAME OUT, GEORGE, AND YOU HAD THAT PICTURE THAT WAS VERY COMPELLING AND A REALLY DRAMATIC MOMENT, A RELATABLE MOMENT, I THINK WHAT YOU WERE MISSING MOST OF ALL WAS THAT VISUAL JOURNEY, THAT EXPERIENTIAL BUY-IN FROM THE AUDIENCE. '10 MINUTES WITH THIS THREE TIMES A WEEK, AND BY THE TIME SUMMER HITS, 'THINK ABOUT WHAT YOUR BODY'S GONNA BE LIKE. 'THINK ABOUT HOW YOU WON'T BE WORRIED ANY MORE ABOUT HITTING THE BEACH 'AND HOW YOU WON'T BE EMBARRASSED.' I DIDN'T HEAR YOU REALLY BRINGING THE CUSTOMER IN AND SAYING, YOU KNOW, 'HERE'S HOW HARD I KNOW IT IS TO KEEP THE WEIGHT OFF. THIS IS GONNA HELP YOU.' CARSON, I KNOW THAT YOU WANTED TO BE THE PROJECT MANAGER BECAUSE YOU'RE GOOD IN SELLING AND YOU HAVE A GREAT PERSONALITY. THANK YOU. BUT SOMETIMES... YOU` I MEAN, YOU HAVE A GOLD MEDALLIST, A MULTI-GOLD MEDALLIST, I MEAN, THE BEST BASKETBALL` FEMALE BASKETBALL PLAYER IN THE HISTORY OF BASKETBALL ON YOUR TEAM FROM THAT POINT ON, YOU HAVE TO SAY, YOU KNOW, NO MATTER HOW GOOD-LOOKING I AM, AND NO MATTER HOW GOOD I SELL, NO MATTER WHAT I DO, THIS... PEOPLE WANT TO SEE, AND THIS IS A PERSON` WHEN SHE SAYS SOMETHING... IF I GO AND SELL PROTEIN POWDER... MM-HM. ...WITH HIM TOGETHER, I WOULDN'T SEND HIM OUT THERE TO SELL PROTEIN POWDER AT MUSCLE BEACH. RIGHT. I WOULD SELL IT. PATRICK: YEAH. WHO HAS MORE`? I WOULD GO OUT THERE AND SAY, 'I AM TAKING 250G OF PROTEIN A DAY, AND THIS IS HOW I GET IT. 'NOT FROM STEAKS, BECAUSE YOU COULD EAT, YOU KNOW, 10 STEAKS A DAY AND YOU COULDN'T GET IT. 'BUT I GET IT FROM THIS SPECIAL PROTEIN POWDER. YES. 'CONCENTRATED. 80% PROTEIN. NO FAT IN IT. I TAKE THAT, AND, POW! 'MY MUSCLES POP. YES. YOU KNOW, SO THEN PEOPLE SAY, 'OH, I'M GONNA GET THIS PRODUCT.' THEY GET EXCITED. THEY WOULDN'T GET EXCITED IF HE'S THERE, NO MATTER HOW GOOD HE SAYS IT, NO MATTER HOW GOOD HE SELLS. RIGHT. SO THAT'S I'M SAYING. I THINK THERE WAS A FAILURE THERE. MM-HM. AS GOOD AS YOU WERE UP UNTIL NOW,... THIS WAS A FAILURE. AS A MATTER OF FACT, THEY BEAT YOU BY TWO TIMES. TWICE AS MUCH MONEY THEY MADE AS YOU DID. THIS IS A MAJOR, MAJOR DEFEAT. MM-HM. AND THIS IS WHY I HAVE TO SAY TODAY, I'M GONNA FIRE TWO OF YOU. CARSON, YOU'VE HELPED EVERYONE TO WIN THEIR TASK. BUT WHEN IT COMES TO YOU, YOU LOST NOW TWICE AS A PROJECT MANAGER. NOW, LISA, YOU DIDN'T ADAPT IN THE TRUCK THE WAY YOU SHOULD HAVE. AND AFTER YOUR SEVEN LOSSES, YOU'VE BEEN BACK IN THE BOARDROOM FIVE TIMES. SO THEREFORE BOTH OF YOU ARE FIRED. SO, BOTH OF YOU, GET TO THE CHOPPER. REALLY? WOW. THANK YOU. YEAH, REALLY. THANK YOU. OK, THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY. ABSOLUTELY. YES. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. (REFLECTIVE MUSIC) I HAD A GREAT TIME. I DIDN'T MAKE ANY ENEMIES. AND I LOVED WORKING WITH YOU. AND I LOVED WORKING WITH YOU. WE HAD A GREAT TIME. AND, MELISSA, CALL MY MASSEUSE. (CHUCKLES) THAT WAS A BOLD DECISION. I GET IT. YOU KNOW, HE REALLY FAILED TODAY. CARSON. AND LISA, YOU KNOW, SHE'S COME BACK TO THE BOARDROOM NOW FIVE TIMES. I THINK CARSON MADE THE KEY DECISIONS. HE CHOSE THE ROLES. SO, YES. AND HE'S THE PROJECT MANAGER. YEAH. (HELICOPTER WHIRRS) YOU KNOW, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I'VE EVER BEEN FIRED IN MY LIFE, BUT I PLAYED THE GAME THE BEST THAT I COULD. I KEPT MY INTEGRITY. I'VE BEEN AN HONEST PERSON FROM START TO FINISH. AT THE END OF THE DAY, I HOPE AMERICA, UM, LOVES ME AS MUCH AS I LOVE AMERICA. (DRAMATIC MUSIC) (INTRIGUING MUSIC) BEING FIRED IS NOT FUN. BUT I LEAVE HERE WITH MY HEAD HELD HIGH. I WAS PROJECT MANAGER THREE TIMES. I LOOKED PRETTY CUTE. I HAD SOME GOOD OUTFITS. BUT UNFORTUNATELY I MADE A CALL, AND I MADE A MISTAKE. OOPS. BUT WHEN YOU DO YOUR VERY BEST, YOU CAN'T WISH FOR MUCH MORE.
