(DRAMATIC MUSIC) THIS SEASON ON THE NEW CELEBRITY APPRENTICE ` ALL RIGHT! 16 STARS DESCENDED ON LOS ANGELES TO BATTLE IT OUT FOR THEIR FAVOURITE CHARITY AND MET THEIR BRAND-NEW BOSS. THE SECOND THAT GOVERNOR SCHWARZENEGGER WALKS INTO THE ROOM, EVERYTHING STOPS. 14 MET THEIR END IN THE BOARDROOM,... YOU'RE TERMINATED. HASTA LA VISTA, BABY. GET TO THE CHOPPER! (RISING DRAMATIC MUSIC) ...LEAVING TWO CONTENDERS TO FACE OFF AS FINALISTS ` CHARISMATIC POP ICON BOY GEORGE... I'M SO CLOSE, I CAN SMELL IT. (INHALES) ...VERSUS THE CAPTIVATING AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR HOST, MATT ISEMAN. COME OOOON! AT THE BEGINNING, BOY GEORGE WASN'T SURE HE HAD THE BUSINESS SKILLS TO GET BY... I THINK WE NEED TO NOMINATE GEORGE. NO! DEFINITELY NOT. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND BUSINESS. THAT'S WHY I'M A MUSICIAN. WITH TREPIDATION, I ACCEPT. ...BUT SUCCESSFULLY LED THE MEN TO WINNING THE VERY FIRST TASK. THE MEN'S TEAM WON. (LOUD CHEERING) HE WAS NEVER SHY OF VOICING HIS OPINION,... DOES EVERYBODY FEEL THAT'S A GOOD IDEA? BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE DON'T. IF THEY ASK ME WHO'S GOING TO BE FIRED TONIGHT, I'M JUST GONNA SAY EVERYONE. I'M JUST GIVING MY OPINION AND THEN` AND I'M GIVING MY OPINION. BOTH: FINE. DO IT AFTER MINE. SIMPLE AS THAT. ...CONTRIBUTING HIS UNIQUE TALENT... # EVERYBODY RISE. EVERYBODY RISE. ...AND BEING A CREATIVE FORCE TASK AFTER TASK. DO I THINK I'M TALENTED? YEAH. I DO. IT'S AMAZING WALKING IN TO SEE THESE PEOPLE WHO I'VE IDOLISED. MATT ISEMAN ENTERED THE COMPETITION AS ONE OF THE LEAST WELL-KNOWN... YOU'RE A FAN. YOU'RE GOOD. I'M NOT A FAN. I'M A SUPER-FAN. ...BUT QUICKLY MADE THE OTHERS TAKE NOTICE... HE'S A DOCTOR! MATT ISEMAN! WELL, MATT, YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS WON THAT TWICE. THANK YOU, GOVERNOR. ...AS HE CONTINUED TO BRING PASSION TO EVERY TASK... YOU SAID, 'IF YOU WANNA BE HERE, YOU FIGHT. DON'T BE AFRAID TO FAIL.' THAT'S WHY I HAVE THE BEST RECORD IN THIS GAME. ...BLOWING EVERYONE AWAY WITH HIS ENTHUSIASM. MATT ISEMAN IS MY HERO. YEAH! AND FOR THEIR FINAL TASK, THESE TWO CELEBRITIES FACE THEIR TOUGHEST CHALLENGE YET. YOUR TASK IS TO PRODUCE AND AD CAMPAIGN, ALSO A PARTY, AND WE'D LIKE YOU TO PRODUCE A VARIETY SHOW. YOU WILL BE JUDGED ON CREATIVITY AND THE AMOUNT OF MONEY RAISED FOR YOUR CHARITIES. BON VOYAGE. ABOARD THE RUBY PRINCESS, THE FINALISTS MET THEIR HELPERS AND SET SAIL. WELCOME ABOARD! (ALL CHEER) I'M NOT DISAPPOINTED. (LAUGHTER, CHEERING) BOY GEORGE AND CARSON KRESSLEY FELL INTO A GROOVE WORKING ON THEIR PHOTO CAMPAIGN,... DOESN'T THAT LOOK GREAT? THIS ONE WILL JUST SAY, 'TAN LINES, YES; BUFFET LINES, NO.' NEVER. 'BUFFET LINES, NEVER.' EVEN BETTER. ...WHILE MATT STRUGGLED WITH HIS ORIGINALITY. I MEAN, I WOULD LOVE TO COME UP WITH CREATIVE SHOTS. I JUST FEEL LIKE TODAY WE'RE JUST RACING AGAINST THE CLOCK. EVENTUALLY, MATT CAME UP WITH A TAG LINE TO TIE THE CREATIVE TOGETHER. SO WHAT I LIKE IS THE IDEA OF 'ONE DESTINATION THAT TAKES YOU EVERYWHERE.' ALL OF A SUDDEN, THINGS STARTED TO SPARK. HOLD ON A SECOND. CAN WE RENT ANIMALS? RENT A KANGAROO? YEAH. A PENGUIN. I` I LOVE IT. MATT BOOKED A CHART-TOPPING ACT FOR HIS VARIETY SHOW... WILSON PHILLIPS WOULD BE GREAT. I'M GONNA HEAR WILSON PHILLIPS TOMORROW NIGHT. ...BUT AT THE END OF THE NIGHT WAS STILL CONCERNED ABOUT FUNDRAISING. AT THIS POINT THE FUNDS ARE COMING IN, BUT SLOWLY. BOY GEORGE SECURED A STAR-STUDDED LINE-UP FOR HIS EVENT... I'M PRETTY SURE WE HAVE NATASHA BEDINGFIELD. OW! YAY! ...BUT SUCCUMBED TO THE PRESSURE WHEN HE FACED A SHOW-STOPPING CREATIVE DIFFERENCE. YOU HAVE TO CHANGE THE MELODY, COS YOU'RE SINGING` NO, I'M NOT GONNA CHANGE THE MELODY. MAYBE YOU COULD SING IT STRONGER` I KNOW WHAT THE SONG IS; I WROTE IT. YOU KNOW, GEORGE, I THINK HE REALISES THAT HE'S NOT GONNA LET ANYTHING GET IN THE WAY OF HIM WINNING, AT THIS POINT. GET RID OF HIM. GET RID OF HIM. I DON'T NEED TO EXPLAIN. THIS IS NOT MY JOB. I DIDN'T ASK FOR HIM TO BE HERE. SO SORRY. GOODBYE. TONIGHT, IN A DRAMATIC FINALE, THESE TWO PASSIONATE COMPETITORS WILL FACE EACH OTHER WITH THE HOPES OF WINNING $250,000 FOR THEIR CHARITIES, AND THE CHANCE TO BECOME GOVERNOR SCHWARZENEGGER'S FIRST EVER CELEBRITY APPRENTICE. (THE O'JAYS' 'FOR THE LOVE OF MONEY') # MONEY, MONEY, MONEY, MONEY. # MONEY! # MONEY, MONEY, MONEY, MONEY. # MONEY! COPYRIGHT ABLE 2017 (DRAMATIC MUSIC) SORRY, GUYS, I HAD TO SACK THE KEYBOARD PLAYER. WHY? COS HE WAS GETTING ON MY NERVES. ARE YOU SERIOUS? YEAH, SERIOUS AS HELL. WHAT WAS HE DOING? JUST ANNOYING, AND I CAN'T WORK WITH SOMEBODY WHO'S GONNA ANNOY ME. IT'S A SIMPLE SONG` OK, GREAT. HE'S TELLING ME HOW TO PLAY MY SONG, TELLING ME WHAT KEY I SHOULD` I'D BE LIKE, 'PLEASE, I DON'T NEED YOUR PERSONALITY. 'I'VE GOT LOADS OF STUFF TO DO.' THE ADS LOOK SO FANTASTIC. GOOD. I'M GLAD SOMETHING DOES. THIS IS A REALLY REALLY STRESSFUL TASK. WE'VE GOT TWO SONGS THAT I'VE WRITTEN THAT ARE BRAND NEW. I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR ANYONE'S EGO EXCEPT MY OWN. YOU HAVE TO FOLLOW YOUR INSTINCTS, AND, YOU KNOW, THE MUSIC WORLD IS MY WORLD. I KNOW ABOUT ATTITUDES AND WHAT THE WRONG ATTITUDE CAN BRING TO A MUSICAL SITUATION. OH, HERE'S OUR NEW KEYBOARDIST. HEY. HELLO. HOW ARE YOU? HOW'S IT GOING? IT'S GOING GOOD. GOOD TO SEE YA. (BOTH CHUCKLE) OK, LET'S GET DOWN TO BUSINESS. (LAID-BACK MUSIC PLAYS) (SINGS INDISTINCTLY) I'M FEELING GOOD. WE'VE GOT THE NEW KEYBOARD PLAYER. I QUITE LIKE HIS ENERGY, AND LUCKILY, I'VE WORKED WITH HIM BEFORE, SO I KNOW HE'S GOOD. COS IT'S DIFFERENT EVERY TIME WE DO IT. YEAH, BUT THAT'S OK, COS YOU'RE STILL VAMPIN'. AS LONG AS YOU STAY THE SAME. I'LL CHANGE. I JUST WANNA DO A GREAT JOB. YOU KNOW, I'M A PERFORMER. THAT'S WHAT I DO. IF I MESS IT UP, PEOPLE ARE GONNA BE LIKE, 'OH, WELL, THAT WASN'T VERY GOOD,' AND I WASN'T GONNA RISK THAT. I LOVE IT. OK, GOOD. LOVE THAT LITTLE BIT. BOTH: GREAT. YEAH, LOVE THAT LITTLE TARTY THING YOU DID AT THE BEGINNING. DELICIOUS. GREAT, GREAT. (CHUCKLES) (HIGHLY ENERGETIC JAZZ MUSIC) (EXCITED CHATTER) I THINK YOU GUYS WILL BE VERY IMPRESSED WITH OUR AREA. I'M NOT GONNA OVERSELL IT, BUT I THINK YOU GUYS WILL LIKE IT. ...OVERLY IMPRESSED WITH OUR AMOUNT OF MONEY, SO GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF YOU. THAT'S GOOD! (SQUEALS) SO, AT THIS POINT, EVERYTHING IN THIS ENTIRE SEASON, IT ALL COMES DOWN TO THIS. LET'S GET INSIDE. WOW! BEAUTIFUL. I WAS SO HAPPY WITH THE WAY MY TEAM STEPPED UP TO HELP THIS VISION BE REALISED. WE GOT ICE SCULPTURES, POKER TABLE, PHOTO BOOTH, THE LIVE ANIMALS, THIS EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING. I HAVE NEVER HELD A BABY KANGAROO. I'M IN LOVE WITH HER. I CAN'T EVEN` (SIGHS) THESE GUESTS WOULD HAVE A VISCERAL IDEA OF WHAT A CRUISE WOULD BE LIKE. AS I LOOKED AT THE TWO SPACES, I THOUGHT BOY GEORGE'S LOOKED BEAUTIFUL. BUT I DIDN'T SEE AN EXPERIENCE. I DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING VISCERAL TO DRAW THEM IN. OH, OURS LOOKS GREAT, MAN. RIGHT? OH, THIS LOOKS FABULOUS. WE WERE REALLY TRYING TO RECREATE A SPACE THE LOOKED LIKE SEABOURN AND PRINCESS, AND WE REALLY CREATED THIS SANCTUARY WITHIN A SANCTUARY. SO IT LOOKED LIKE A SPA; THERE WAS A GREAT BAR, AND THE SPACE REALLY HAD FANTASTIC AMBIENCE. BUT I'M KIND OF HAVING KANGAROO ENVY AT THIS POINT. GO, TEAM MATT. CONGRATULATIONS. YOU AS WELL. (BOTH TALK AT ONCE) I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING WHAT YOU DO. I'M EXCITED. AND I YOU AS WELL. CAN I COME UP AND SING WITH YOU, PLEASE? NO. I'VE BEEN DYING TO DO IT. SO, COMING INTO THIS COMPETITION, I'D CONSIDER MYSELF AN UNDERDOG. I WAS DEFINITELY ONE OF THE LEAST FAMOUS PEOPLE OUT HERE. AND TO GO AGAINST AN ICON LIKE BOY GEORGE, I DON'T CARE WHAT HAPPENS IN THE END. TONIGHT, I FEEL LIKE A WINNER. HOPEFULLY WE BOTH HAVE A GREAT NIGHT; WE BOTH RAISE A LOT OF MONEY. I RAISE A LITTLE MORE. COME ON IN! WELCOME! LET'S START THIS PARTY. $4000! $4000! $7000. MAGGIE! $16,030. $16,000?! OH MY! $20,000! WHOA! AHHH! THE CHECKS STARTED ROLLING IN. AND WHAT SEEMED IMPOSSIBLE, IN A MATTER OF DAYS ALL OF A SUDDEN BECAME REAL. THEY'D MOBILISED ALL OF THE AMERICANS LIVING WITH ARTHRITIS, AND THEY DELIVERED. I AM ELATED. SHOUTS: $75,000! (CHEERING, WHOOPING) THEY'RE VERY NOISY ON THAT SIDE. VERY. BUT THAT'S ALWAYS BEEN THEIR THING, RIGHT? (HUMS) $100,000. WHAT?! (CHEERING, SCREAMING) WHAT?! WHAT?! VERY NOISY. THEY MAKE A LOT OF NOISE. THEY'RE SHOUTING A LOT, AND IT'S ALL LIKE, (GROWLS). YES! AND IT'S LIKE, 'PLEASE BE QUIET.' THIS IS FROM THE GUESS FOUNDATION. $50,000.

THE GOVERNOR, IN THAT LAST BOARDROOM, HE CHALLENGED ME. HE CALLED ME OUT. HE QUESTIONED MY ABILITY TO RAISE MONEY. I'M JUST TRYING TO ANSWER THE CALL. I SET A GOAL ` A RIDICULOUS GOAL ` AND WE BLEW PAST IT. THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE. I THINK A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE ARTHRITIS. YOU REALLY THINK? IT'S A VERY, LIKE, GLOBAL` IS THAT BAD OR GOOD FOR US? UM, THEY'RE RAISING A LOT OF MONEY, BUT WE RAISED A LOT OF MONEY AS WELL. $10,000! (ALL CHEER) WE HAVE 10,000 FROM MARC JACOBS, 10,000 FROM ROSIE O'DONNELL, 5000 FROM CYNDI LAUPER. AMAZING. UM, WE HAVE $100,000 FROM SAM NAZARIAN. YEAH, AMAZING. WE'RE GONNA DO JUST FINE. I HAVE TO BE HONEST AN SAY I WAS A LITTLE BIT CONCERNED. THEY'VE GOT LOTS OF PEOPLE TURNING UP WITH CHEQUES. YOU KNOW, WE'RE KIND OF UNDER PRESSURE. WE NEED TO RAISE MORE MONEY. CARSON. YES? IS CAITLYN YOUR VIP? SHE'S OUR` MY VIP, YEAH. YOUR VIP? YES. SO YOU'VE GOTTA LOOK AFTER HER, YEAH? WELL, ON THE GUEST LIST TONIGHT, WE HAVE CAITLYN JENNER AND ALL OF THE CAST OF 'I AM CAIT'. SO ALL THE TRANSGENDER GIRLS. CAITLYN WAS GONNA COME WITH $90,000. WE'RE EXCITED FOR HER TO BRING THAT TO OUR CHARITY DESK, AND SHE'S NOT HERE. SHALL WE GO IN, GUYS? WE'VE GOTTA WAIT FOR CAITLYN. WHERE'S CAITLYN? CHANTS: NAM MYOHO RENGE KYO. NAM MYOHO RENGE KYO. NAM MYOHO RENGE... WHERE'S CAITLYN? I'M GONNA MISS THE ACT. 'WE'RE ABOUT 30 MINUTES AWAY FROM SHOW TIME, AND NO SIGN OF CAITLYN JENNER. I'M PANICKING. I KEEP SAYING, 'WHERE'S CAITLYN? WHERE'S CAITLYN?' WHERE'S CAITLYN? I'VE BEEN SAYING THIS FOR, LIKE, 20 MINUTES. KIND OF PANICKING. IS SHE COMING? HAS SOMETHING HAPPENED? HAVE THE PAPARAZZI SCARED HER AWAY? YOU KNOW, WHAT'S GOING ON? I NEED THAT MONEY. WHERE'S CAITLYN? (TENSE MUSIC) WHERE'S CAITLYN? WE'VE GOT 30 MINUTES. I DON'T THINK WE CAN DO IT. ANYONE GOT ANY MONEY THEY WANNA GIVE US? CASH IS KING. COME ON, GUYS. WE'RE ABOUT 13 MINUTES AWAY FROM SHOW TIME, AND NO SIGN OF CAITLYN JENNER. I KEEP HEARING, 'SHE'S GETTING OUT OF THE CAR. SHE'S ON THE LIFT.' HEY! 'FINALLY SHE ARRIVES, AND I'M VERY RELIEVED TO SEE HER AND ALL HER FRIENDS.' (CHUCKLES) HEY! WHAT DO YOU HAVE THERE? CASH, BABY. 90 GRAND. (CHEERING) 90 GRAND, BABY! FROM SAFETY FIRST. AMAZING. SAFETY FIRST. THEY LOVE IT. YEAH. THAT'S WHAT WE LOVE. THE REALLY BIG STAR OF THE NIGHT IS CAITLYN JENNER. I'M REALLY TOUCHED THAT SHE'S COME DOWN TO DELIVER A CHEQUE FOR MY CHARITY 'SAFE KIDS WORLDWIDE' FOR 90 GRAND. THIS MONEY IS GONNA BE LIFE-CHANGING FOR THE CHARITY AND FOR THE WORK THAT THEY DO. THE REASON I THOUGHT I REALLY REALLY WANNA COME,... YES. SO, WE ARE TODAY, YEAH. IT'S AMAZING. I'M JUST SO PROUD OF YOU. AW, THANKS, SWEETHEART, THAT'S AMAZING. YOU KNOW? YEAH, IT'S AMAZING. TODAY IS A REALLY SIGNIFICANT DAY FOR ME, YOU KNOW. IT'S MY EIGHTH BIRTHDAY OF BEING SOBER. THE FACT THAT THIS TASK FELL ON THIS DAY IS KIND OF COSMIC. SO I HAVE TO REMEMBER WHERE I'VE BEEN. YOU KNOW, MY JOURNEY AND ALL OF THAT, AND THEN THINK ABOUT WHAT TODAY MEANS TO ME, HOW SIGNIFICANT THAT IS. I MEAN, I REALLY WANNA WIN, BECAUSE IT WILL BE A REAL MEASURE OF WHERE I AM IN MY LIFE. HELLO. ARNOLD. 'THE GATE'. HEY. HOW ARE YOU? RIGHT HERE, SIR. (CAMERA SHUTTERS CLICK RAPIDLY) AND HOLD THAT SMILE, SIR. IT IS A VERITABLE WHO'S WHO IN THIS ROOM. THE GOVERNOR'S THERE; TYRA'S THERE; ARNOLD DONALD, THE HEAD OF THE CARNIVAL CORPORATION; PLUS THE INDIVIDUAL PRESIDENTS OF 'PRINCESS', OF 'SEABOURN', 'CARNIVAL' AND 'HOLLAND'. HELLO! YOU LOOKED REFRESHED, GOVERNOR, BUT I THINK YOU'RE READY FOR A LITTLE VACATION. SO I WOULD LIKE TO GIVE YOU A PASSPORT HERE. SO IF YOU NOTICE, WE'VE GOT DIFFERENT AREAS. THE SWEET SPOT ` SAMPLE SOME OF THE DELICIOUS TREATS, GET IN THE SPIRIT; A LITTLE DRINK. AS SOON AS THE GOVERNOR AND PATRICK CAME IN, I WENT UP TO THEM; I TOOK A PASSPORT, I PUT IT IN THEIR HANDS, AND I EXPLAINED TO THEM EXACTLY ALL THE THOUGHT THAT WE PUT INTO THIS. IS THIS A TRIP TO MARS? TOTAL RECALL! YOU THINK I'M NOT GONNA GET THAT?! TWO WEEKS! EXACTLY! TWO WEEKS. TWO WEEKS. YOU KNOW I'M GONNA QUOTE YOU TO YOU ALL NIGHT LONG WHEN YOU INVITE IT, SIR. I HOPE SO! YOU CAN CALL IT BROWN-NOSING; TO ME IT WAS AN UNBELIEVABLE MISSED OPPORTUNITY FOR TEAM BOY GEORGE THAT THEY LET THEM WALK IN AND GAVE ME ACCESS TO THEM FIRST. SO, WITH THE PASSPORT, YOU CAN GO AROUND TO OUR VARIOUS STATIONS AND GET STAMPS ` THE SWEET SPOT, THE RELAXATION STATION, AND WE ACTUALLY HAVE LIVE ANIMALS. AND THEN SHOW TIME,... I THINK YOU CAN IMAGINE WHEN THAT'S GONNA BE. OK. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT. 'YOU KNOW, IN THIS COMPETITION, YOU DON'T GET ANYTHING BY LYING BACK.' I'M GONNA PUT MYSELF OUT THERE. HAVE YOU MET CAITLYN? CAITLYN. HOW ARE YOU? (CHORTLES) GIVE ME FIVE. GOOD TO SEE YOU. BOTH: GOOD TO SEE YOU. YEAH. ABSOLUTELY. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WELCOME TO OUR FINALE EVENT. (CHEERING, APPLAUSE) SOME OF YOU ARE LOOKING AT ME, WONDERING WHO I AM. MY NAME IS MATT ISEMAN. (WHOOPING, CHEERING) BRAVO! THANK YOU! I HOST A REALITY SHOW ON NBC. WHOO! I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE SAYING, 'WHAT CAN THAT LEAD TO?' IT HAS LED ME TO THE FINALE OF THE CELEBRITY APPRENTICE! (CHEERING, APPLAUSE) I CANNOT BELIEVE I AM STANDING HERE, AND I GOTTA SAY, WHAT FEELS SO GREAT IS THAT FOR THE PAST MONTH, I'VE BEEN TALKING TO PEOPLE; THEY'VE BEEN SAYING, 'WHAT ARE YOU DOING?' I HAVE TO SAY, 'I'M ON A SHOW. 'WHERE I'M TRYING NOT TO HEAR, "YOU'RE FIRED."' (LAUGHTER) THAT'S NOT WHAT I SAID, THOUGH. I SAID, 'WHERE I'M TRYING NOT TO HEAR, (IMITATES ARNOLD) "YOU'RE FIRED! I TERMINATED YOU! GET TO THE CHOPPER! WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE? "DO IT! DO IT NOW!"' I STARTED OFF WITH SOMETHING PEOPLE MIGHT CALL RISKY. BUT HONESTLY, YOU ONLY GET SO MANY SHOTS IN LIFE TO DO WHAT YOU DREAMED OF. (IMITATES ARNOLD) SO HERE I AM; I'M RIGHT HERE! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? DO ARNOLD TO ARNOLD! OH MY GOD! (CHEERING, APPLAUSE) I GOTTA SAY, DOING THAT GIVES ME A HEADACHE. (IMITATES ARNOLD) IT'S NOT A TUMOUR! I LOVE MATT. HE'S VERY NOISY. I KNOW! (GIGGLES) I DON'T KNOW. THAT'S ALWAYS RISKY ` TO IMPERSONATE THE GOVERNOR TO THE GOVERNOR. I MAY BE OUT OF A JOB SOON. BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT JUST MEANS I COULD GO ON A VACATION. WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT YOUR VACATION, ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS THINK ABOUT THE ONE DESTINATION THAT CAN TRULY TAKE YOU EVERYWHERE. OUR ADS DIDN'T TURN OUT QUITE AS BEAUTIFUL AS I WOULD'VE LIKED, BUT I LOVED OUR MESSAGE ` 'ONE DESTINATION THAT TAKES YOU EVERYWHERE.' 'TO ME, THAT'S THE THROUGH LINE THAT'S GONNA SHOW HOW MUCH THOUGHT WE PUT INTO THIS.' AND THAT'S THE MESSAGE THAT THEY WANT. SO I WANTED TO TELL YOU GUYS WHY I'M COMPETING FOR THE ARTHRITIS FOUNDATION. UM,... COS FOR ME, IT'S PERSONAL. IN 2002, I HAD PAIN, UM, IN MY JOINTS AND HANDS. AND SHORTLY AFTERWARDS, IT SPREAD TO MY FEET, TO MY BACK AND TO MY NECK. THE PAIN BECAME SO INTENSE, THE STIFFNESS SO BAD, I COULD BARELY GET OUT OF BED, AND FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE, I STOPPED WORKING OUT. IN THE COURSE OF A YEAR AND A HALF, I ENDED UP GAINING 55 POUNDS, AND I BECAME A SHELL OF WHO I WAS. AND THEN I WAS TOLD THAT I HAD RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS. I WAS LUCKY. I STARTED TREATMENT AND RESPONDED, AND I GOT MY LIFE BACK. BUT THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO DON'T RESPOND TO THE MEDICATIONS. AND THAT'S WHY I'M HERE, TRYING TO BE AN INSPIRATION AND RAISE MONEY FOR THE ARTHRITIS FOUNDATION. WHOO! (APPLAUSE, CHEERING) SO THANK YOU, GOVERNOR. THANK YOU FOR A KICK-ASS OPPORTUNITY. IT'S NOT EASY WHEN YOU'RE TOLD YOU HAVE A CHRONIC DISEASE AND THERE'S NO CURE AND YOU'RE GONNA BE ON TREATMENT OF SOME FORM OR ANOTHER FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE. THERE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A LOT MORE COMEDY HERE, AND I'M SORRY. 'SO I LOVE HAVING THIS PLATFORM TO TELL EVERYONE OUT THERE WHO'S SICK' THERE'S LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL. AND HOPEFULLY WE RAISE MORE MONEY AND THAT LIGHT GETS BRIGHTER, AND SOMEDAY WE FIND A CURE. SO CAN WE DO SOMETHING THAT MAKES PEOPLE HAPPY? YES, FINALLY! PLEASE! YES! LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE YOU TO THE FOURTH MEMBER OF OUR TEAM ` THE AMAZING MS CARNIE WILSON SINGING HER NUMBER ONE HIT SINGLE 'HOLD ON', LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WILSON PHILLIPS! (CHEERING, APPLAUSE) ('HOLD ON' BEGINS) THANK YOU! YOU GUYS CAN SING ALONG, OK? # I KNOW THIS PAIN. SINGERS HARMONISE: # WHY DO YOU LOCK YOURSELF UP IN THESE CHAINS? # NO ONE CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE EXCEPT FOR YOU. # DON'T EVER LET ANYONE STEP ALL OVER YOU. # JUST OPEN YOUR HEART AND YOUR MIND. # MMM. # IS IT REALLY FAIR TO FEEL # THIS WAY INSIDE? # WHOA! # SOMEDAY SOMEBODY'S GONNA MAKE YOU WANNA TURN AROUND AND SAY GOODBYE. SEEING CARNIE GET UP THERE WITH WILSON PHILLIPS AND SING THIS SONG THAT I KNOW EVERY WORD TO WAS SURREAL. # HOLD ON FOR ONE MORE DAY. YOU CAN DO THAT, RIGHT? (CHEERING) I FELT SO PROUD THAT THIS IS PART OF OUR VARIETY SHOW. I MEAN, WE HAVE WILSON PHILLIPS HERE. THIS IS CRAZY. # SOMEDAY SOMEBODY'S GONNA MAKE YOU WANNA TURN AROUND AND SAY GOODBYE. # UNTIL THEN, BABY, ARE YOU GONNA LET 'EM HOLD YOU DOWN AND MAKE YOU CRY? # DON'T YOU KNOW... # DON'T YOU KNOW THINGS'LL CHANGE? THINGS ARE GOING YOUR WAY. # IF YOU HOLD ON # FOR ONE MORE DAY, THINGS'LL GO YOUR WAY. # JUST HOLD ON! # HOLD ON! # (CHEERING, APPLAUSE, SCREAMING) LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WILSON PHILLIPS! I COULDN'T HAVE BEEN HAPPIER WITH THE VARIETY SHOW. IT HAD COMEDY, IT HAD THE NINJAS, IT HAD WILSON PHILLIPS, BUT MOSTLY IT GAVE ME A CHANCE TO TALK ABOUT THE ARTHRITIS FOUNDATION. I FEEL LIKE, NO MATTER WHAT, I'VE ALREADY WON. REMEMBER, WHEN IT'S YOUR VACATION, THERE IS ONE DESTINATION THAT WILL TAKE YOU EVERYWHERE. SO HOLD ON, BABY! (CHEERING, APPLAUSE) (CHEERING, APPLAUSE) HELLO! WELCOME ABOARD PRINCESS AND SEABOURN CRUISES. MY NAME IS CARSON KRESSLEY, AND I'LL BE YOUR CRUISE DIRECTOR TONIGHT. WE'RE AWAY. THE CRUISE HAS STARTED. CARSON WAS DOING THE OPEN, AND HE'S DONE LOTS OF CRUISES, AND HE'S PERFORMED ON THOSE ACTUAL SHIPS. SO I'M RELYING MASSIVELY ON CARSON TO DELIVER THIS PART OF THE TASK. WE'RE GONNA START WITH SOME CRUISE INDUSTRY MYTH-BUSTING. SO, THE BUFFET LINES. OF COURSE THERE ARE NO BUFFET LINES AT ANY OF THE CARNIVAL CRUISE FAMILY LINES. SO WE CAME UP WITH THIS IMAGE TO TELL THE STORY. WHAT DO YOU THINK, PEOPLE? THAT'S CLEVER! I THINK THAT WE DID A REALLY REALLY GOOD JOB. WE REALLY MADE YOU FEEL LIKE ONCE YOU GET THERE, IT'S GONNA BE LUXURY AT ITS BEST. WE HAVE THE MYTH OF, 'THERE'S NOTHING TO DO.' BUT ACTUALLY, THERE IS NOTHING TO DO! IF YOU WANNA TAKE PART IN EVERYTHING, YOU CAN; IF YOU DON'T, THEN YOU CAN JUST LAY WITH YOUR GAY BESTIE AND GET A MASSAGE AND BE FABULOUS. AND WE KNOW THAT ENTERTAINMENT IS A HUGE PART OF THE CARNIVAL FAMILY OF CRUISE LINES, SO WHO BETTER TO ENTERTAIN US THAN BOY GEORGE HIMSELF? MAKE A LOT OF NOISE! (CHEERING) THANK YOU, THANK YOU, CARSON. CARSON KRESSLEY ` EVERY HOME SHOULD HAVE ONE. HE'S AMAZING. A CRUISE IS REALLY ESSENTIALLY ABOUT HOW YOU FEEL. IT'S A REAL FEELING EXPERIENCE, AND THE WORD YOU GAVE ME FOR THE PRINCESS WAS 'JOY'. AND THAT REALLY MADE ME THINK. (SENTIMENTAL PIANO MUSIC) (SULTRY SAXOPHONE MUSIC) FEEL FREE TO CHOOSE. PUT YOUR ARMS AROUND SOMEONE YOU LOVE OR SOMEONE YOU DON'T LOVE. (LAUGHTER) # JOY, JOY, JOY. # SHOW ME THE WONDERS OF THE WORLD. # COME BACK NEW. SO MUCH TO SAY. I'VE WRITTEN TWO SONGS FOR THESE DIFFERENT CRUISE LINERS. IT'S KIND OF GIVEN ME A REAL KICK TO SEE HOW MUCH PEOPLE LOVE TO HEAR SOMEONE SINGING ABOUT THEIR BUSINESS. IT'S BEEN SUCH A WONDERFUL TOOL. # TANGO IN ARGENTINA, # CAVIAR IN ANGUILLA # SEABOURN, SEABOURN, # YOUR SHIP IS COMING IN. # LET ME HEAR YOU! BOY GEORGE IS SO PROLIFIC AT SONGWRITING, AND HE DID WHAT HE'S DONE ALL SEASON LONG. THAT'S BEEN HIS STRENGTH, AND HE PLAYED TO HIS STRENGTH. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, PLEASE WELCOME TO THE STAGE MS NATASHA BEDINGFIELD. (CHEERING) (BAND PLAYS 'POCKETFUL OF SUNSHINE') # I GOT A POCKET, GOT A POCKETFUL OF SUNSHINE. I WAS REALLY HAPPY TO GET NATASHA. SHE'S GOT A GREAT VOICE. I CONSIDER IT TO BE A HUGE HONOUR THAT SHE'S OUR GUEST STAR. VERY EXCITED ABOUT IT. IT WAS JUST AMAZING. # I GOT A POCKET, GOT A POCKETFUL OF SUNSHINE. # I GOT A LOVE AND I KNOW THAT IT'S ALL MINE, OH, WHOA! # DO WHAT YOU WANT, BUT YOU'RE NEVER GONNA BREAK ME. # YOU'RE NEVER GONNA SHAKE ME, OH. # OH, NO, NO, NO. # TAKE ME AWAY. THE WHOLE CROWD IS VIBING. I'M TALKING TYRA, THE GOVERNOR, PATRICK, ALL THE EXECUTIVES, AND WE WERE ALL JUST HAVING THAT MOMENT. (MUSIC ENDS) NATASHA BEDINGFIELD! (CHEERING, APPLAUSE) THANK YOU VERY MUCH! (BAND BEGINS PLAYING CULTURE CLUB'S 'KARMA CHAMELEON') HEY!

HE DON'T GO HERE; HE'S NOT GONNA GO THERE; HE'S GONNA KEEP IT RIGHT (LAUGHS) HERE. IT WAS JUST AMAZING! # LOVING WOULD BE EASY IF YOUR COLOURS WOULD LIGHT MY DREAMS # RED, GOLD AND GREEN. # RED, GOLD AND GREEN. # RED, GOLD AND GREEN. # RED, GOLD AND GREEN. LET ME HEAR YOU GUYS SING! 'I THINK THIS WILL GO DOWN AS ACTUALLY ONE OF MY FAVOURITE PERFORMANCES I'VE EVER DONE.' ALL THE STARS ALIGNED, AND EVERYTHING WAS JUST, YOU KNOW, AS IT SHOULD BE. IT WAS A LOVELY WAY TO END THIS JOURNEY. IT WAS PERFECT. THAT WAS THE BEST CRUISE EVER! NEXT STOP ` ACAPULCO. (CHEERING, APPLAUSE, WHISTLING) (LIGHT, INTRIGUING MUSIC) (RISING STRING MUSIC) WHISPERS: HI, PATRICK. HELLO, EVERYBODY. (ALL GREET ARNOLD) HELLO, GOVERNOR. WELL, I TOLD YOU MANY TIMES, THERE IS A LOT I KNOW ABOUT COMPETITIONS. I'VE BEEN COMPETING MY WHOLE LIFE ` COMPETING IN BODYBUILDING, IN POWERLIFTING, IN SHOW BUSINESS, IN POLITICS; AND BOTH OF YOU HAVE SHOWN UNBELIEVABLE COMPETITIVE SPIRIT. I MEAN, YOU'VE REALLY DONE AN EXTRAORDINARY JOB ALL THE WAY THROUGH. BUT YESTERDAY, I WAS BLOWN AWAY BY THE PERFORMANCES, BY YOUR SPEECHES. BUT BEFORE WE GET INTO ALL OF THAT,... (CHUCKLES) ...I JUST WANTED TO SAY IT'S GREAT TO SEE ALL OF YOU, AND I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU ALSO TO ALL OF YOU FOR THE GREAT WORK THAT YOU'VE DONE. I MEAN, WASN'T IT GREAT TO HAVE ALL THE HELPERS THERE? WASN'T IT WONDERFUL? INVALUABLE. WELL, MATT, WHAT DID YOU THINK ABOUT YOUR TEAM? I'D NEVER WORKED WITH THEM. I HAD NO IDEA WHAT TO EXPECT, AND THEY IMPRESSED ME TO NO END. UM, I SAW THEM ABSOLUTELY THROW THEMSELVES INTO THIS TASK AND SUPPORT ME IN ANY WAY POSSIBLE. AND I FELT IT WAS SUCH A COLLABORATION, AND I WAS ELATED TO GET TO SHARE WITH THEM. AND BECAUSE IT WAS MY CHARITY TOO, I KNOW HOW MUCH IT MEANT TO ME. AND THEY SUPPORTED ME AND HELPED ME IN WAYS I` I, UH... I'LL JUST BE` I TOLD ALL OF THEM I OWE THEM A HUGE DEBT. WELL, CARNIE, WHAT WAS IT LIKE WORKING WITH MATT? HE IS GRACIOUS AND, UM, HUMBLE, AND YET STRONG AND SMART. HE WAS EVERYTHING I HOPED, AND I'M JUST MAD ABOUT HIM. KYLE, WHAT DID YOU THINK ABOUT HIS LEADERSHIP AND WORKING WITH HIM? MATT IS AN INCREDIBLE LEADER. HE WAS SO CALM, COOL AND COLLECTED; I HAVE NO IDEA HOW HE DOES IT. THAT'S OBVIOUSLY WHERE THE DOCTOR IN HIM COMES OUT. IT WAS JUST REALLY IMPRESSIVE, AND, YOU KNOW, WE WERE JUST SO PROUD, ALL OF US, TO BE PART OF TEAM MATT. CARRIE, WHAT DID HE DO ` WHAT DID MATT DO ` TO MAKE YOU BE SO FULL OF ENERGY AND CALLING EVERYONE FOR MONEY AND RAISING MONEY? BECAUSE YOU EVEN CALLED MY VERY DEAR FRIEND SYLVESTER STALLONE. OK? HE CALLED ME OUT OF NOWHERE AND HE SAYS... WELL, I DON'T WANNA IMITATE HIM. (LAUGHTER) PLEASE DO! PLEASE! PLEASE! DO IT! ALL CHANT: DO IT! DO IT! NO, BUT I MEAN, HE WAS, LIKE, SHOCKED. HE SAYS, 'THIS IS SO RARE THAT I'M GETTING A PHONE CALL 'AND GETTING HUSTLED FOR MONEY. I MEAN, YOU KNOW, CARRIE CALLED ME AND I COULDN'T SAY NO,' SO YOU NOT ONLY ASKED HIM BUT YOU GOT THE MONEY. AH. SO, I MEAN, THAT IS REALLY FANTASTIC. WHAT HAPPENED? HOW DID HE CONVINCE YOU TO DO THAT? HE DIDN'T HAVE TO CONVINCE ME. I THINK HE'S THE GREATEST GUY. AND YOU CAN SEE HOW MUCH HE CARES ABOUT HIS CHARITY. GEORGE, HOW DID YOU MAKE THE DECISION AND ASSIGN EVERYONE WITH THEIR TASKS? WELL, I KNEW THAT CARSON WOULD BE GREAT WITH, YOU KNOW, THE AD CAMPAIGN. HE'S DONE A LOT OF CORPORATE WORK. HE'S WORKED FOR RALPH LAUREN. AND ALSO, ON OTHER TASKS HE JUST EXCELLED. AND THE GIRLS WERE GIVEN THE TASK OF DOING THE ROOM. AND ALSO PORSHA, DEALT WITH OUR PHOTO DETAILS ` YOU KNOW, KEEP US ON SCHEDULE. I THINK EVERYBODY DID A GREAT JOB. PORSHA, HOW WAS GEORGE TO WORK WITH? GEORGE WAS A GREAT PROJECT MANAGER. HE KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT HE WANTS, AND HE'S GONNA MAKE SURE THAT HAPPENS, WHETHER HE IS INVOLVED FROM THE BEGINNING OR THE END, HE IS GONNA PUT HIS OPINION IN THERE. SO THEREFORE, EVERYTHING THAT WE DID WAS VERY COLLABORATIVE BETWEEN EVERYBODY. AND I THINK HE DID AN EXCELLENT JOB. YEAH, I THINK SO TOO. CARSON, HOW WAS HE AS A PROJECT MANAGER? WE WERE SO FORTUNATE TO HAVE AN ARTIST AS OUR LEADER, BECAUSE NOBODY IS BETTER AT CONJURING EMOTIONS THAN AN ARTIST AND A MUSICIAN. SO WHILE WE HAD A GREAT PARTY SPACE AND WHILE WE HAD A GREAT AD CAMPAIGN, WE SOLD THE WHOLE THING BY TAKING PEOPLE ON AN EMOTIONAL JOURNEY, WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT A CRUISE IS. AND, LAILA, HOW WAS IT FOR YOU, BEING BACK AGAIN AND ALSO WORKING WITH GEORGE? IT WAS GREAT. I MEAN, I KNEW WHAT GEORGE BROUGHT TO THE TABLE, BECAUSE HE BEAT ME ON THE LAST TASK ` THAT GOT ME FIRED ` BY SINGING AND BRINGING OUT EMOTION. SO I WAS EXPECTING IT, AND I KNEW THAT IT WAS GONNA BE A GREAT SHOW. GEORGE, HOW DID YOU PICK THE VARIETY SHOW THAT YOU PRESENTED TO ALL OF US? THE DAY ON THE CRUISE, OBVIOUSLY, WHILE THEY WERE DOING PHOTOS, I WAS THE PHONE TO EVERYONE, FROM, LIKE, SAM SMITH, JOHN LEGEND ` I TRIED EVERYONE. NOBODY WAS IN TOWN. AND THEN CARSON CAME UP WITH USING NATASHA BEDINGFIELD. SHE WAS AMAZING. SHE WA GREAT. AMAZING. YOU KNOW, WHAT A BRILLIANT SONG. SO THAT WAS GREAT. YOU BOTH HAD INCREDIBLE LINE-UPS, I HAVE TO SAY. IT WAS REALLY AMAZING. WELL, YOU GUYS MADE ME WANNA GO ON A CRUISE. (LAUGHTER) I'M SERIOUS! I'M THINKING ABOUT TAKING MY FAMILY ON VACATION, AND I WAS LIKE, 'WAIT A SECOND.' EXACTLY! A CRUISE! NOW, YOU RAISED A` WHAT WAS IT? $120,000 FOR VINCE'S CHARITY? I DID, YEAH. EXACTLY. NOW, DID YOU HAVE ANYTHING LEFT TO RAISE FOR YOUR CHARITY? (LAUGHS) I ACTUALLY CALLED VINCE, BUT HE DIDN'T CALL ME BACK. (LAUGHTER) I CALLED A FEW TIMES. 'MATE, MAYBE YOU CAN GIVE ME SOME OF THAT BACK.' HE DIDN'T CALL ME EITHER. DON'T TAKE IT PERSONALLY. EVEN ON THE LAST DAY, I JUST DECIDED TO OPEN UP MY PHONE BOOK. I WAS CALLING EVERYONE. OBVIOUSLY I CALLED, UH, CHRISTIAN, BUT CARRIE ALREADY GOT THERE FIRST. BUT I GOT ROSIE O'DONNELL, UH, MARC JACOBS THE DESIGNER... SHARON OSBOURNE. SHARON OSBOURNE. YOU KNOW, I JUST WENT FROM MY PHONE BOOK, AND I LITERALLY RANG PEOPLE. I SENT EMAILS TO PEOPLE IN LONDON. AND I HAVE TO SAY I SENT PROBABLY ABOUT A THOUSAND EMAILS OVERNIGHT. YOU KNOW, SO I FELT LIKE WE WERE HEADING TOWARDS A GOOD FIGURE. BUT I STILL, ALL DAY, WAS CALLING PEOPLE. WELL, MATT, YOU WERE WORRIED ABOUT FUNDRAISING` NOT AS WORRIED AS YOU WERE. WE ALL WERE WORRIED ABOUT YOUR FUNDRAISING ABILITIES, SO WHAT DO YOU THINK OF HOW YOU DID? I KNEW COMING INTO THIS COMPETITION THAT WAS MY GREATEST CHALLENGE. I DON'T HAVE A ROLODEX OF PEOPLE TO CALL ` OF FAMOUS PEOPLE. BUT THE THING I TOLD YOU WAS THAT I WOULDN'T BE DOING THIS ALONE, AND I WAS GONNA CALL ON MY CHARITY, THE ARTHRITIS FOUNDATION, AND RELY ON THE OVER 50 MILLION AMERICANS WHO HAVE ARTHRITIS TO TRY TO CONTRIBUTE, BECAUSE I KNEW THAT WAS THE ONLY WAY I COULD COME ANYWHERE CLOSE TO HIM. AND SO I DID. I ACTUALLY CHANGED OUR VARIETY SHOW. INITIALLY IT WAS JUST GONNA BE ME DOING STRAIGHT STAND-UP COMEDY, AND THEN WILSON PHILLIPS. BUT AFTER THE PEOPLE SHOWED UP FROM THE ARTHRITIS FOUNDATION AND I REALISED THAT I HAD THIS OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK ON BEHALF OF MY CHARITY AND TO BE SOMEONE WHO HAS RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS, AND TO HAVE SUCH A PUBLIC PLATFORM AND TELL MY STORY. I FELT I HAD TO TAKE THAT OPPORTUNITY AND TO THANK THE PEOPLE WHO'D COME OUT AND RAISED THIS AMOUNT OF MONEY. COS I DIDN'T DO IT ALONE. I WAS REALLY TOUCHED BY YOU SHARING YOUR STRUGGLES WITH RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS AND THEN TAKING US THROUGH THE STORY, AND TO KNOW THAT YOU WERE ALSO FIGHTING FOR YOURSELF AND FOR THE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE THAT YOU SHARE THAT WITH. FIRST OF ALL, LIKE, HE'S A GORGEOUS MAN, TALL, FINE AS HELL. YOU KNOW? (LAUGHTER) UH-OW! AND SO TO SHOW THAT VULNERABILITY CONNECTED TO THAT JUST MADE YOU EVEN MORE BEAUTIFUL. SO I COMMEND YOU FOR IT. THANK YOU. SO LET'S TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE, UH, EVALUATION. YES. CAME OUT ONCE AGAIN VERY VERY CLOSE. (TENSE MUSIC) SO, LET'S TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE EVALUATION. YES. CAME OUT ONCE AGAIN VERY VERY CLOSE. TYRA, WHAT DID CARNIVAL THINK ABOUT TEAM BOY GEORGE? SO, THE CLIENTS WERE VERY IMPRESSED WITH YOUR PRESENTATION. THEY THOUGHT THAT THE PARTY WAS ON POINT AND THAT THE PHOTOS WERE PHENOMENAL. AND THEY ALSO LOVED THAT YOU VARIETY SHOW STAYED ON THE THEME OF EMOTING CRUISING. THEY REALLY LIKED THAT. AND THEY THOUGHT THE PERFORMANCE WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, AND THAT WAS GREAT. TERRIFIC. SO, PATRICK, WHY DON'T YOU TALK ABOUT MATT AND HIS TEAM? SO, MATT, THE EXECUTIVES THOUGHT THAT YOU PERFORMING WAS SUPER ENGAGING AND SUPER FUN, AND THEY LOVED THE PARTY AND THE ANIMALS THAT YOU ORGANISED. UH, THEY ALSO THOUGHT THAT THE PASSPORT WAS A GREAT, SPECIAL TOUCH. OVERALL, THEY FELT YOU STAYED ON THEME, SO THEY WERE VERY VERY PLEASED. GOOD. YOU WANT TO HEAR HOW MUCH MONEY WAS RAISED? (ALL AGREE) DO YOU KNOW AT ALL? I MEAN, DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA`? I HAVE AN IDEA OF HOW MUCH WE RAISED. GOOD. GO AHEAD. BOY GEORGE, YOU RAISED $445,925. OH WOW! (APPLAUSE) (SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY) AND HOW ABOUT MATT? AND, MATT, YOU RAISED $573,329. YES! WOW. OH MY GOD. SO MUCH FOR, 'YOU CAN'T FUNDRAISE.' (APPLAUSE) (POIGNANT MUSIC) WHOO! AMAZING. AMAZING. BUT IMAGINE HOW MUCH MONEY WAS RAISED HERE. THAT WAS, LIKE, A MILLION DOLLARS BETWEEN THE TWO OF YOU. INCREDIBLE. WELL DONE, MATT. WELL DONE. YEAH. THANK YOU. YOU AS WELL. WELL DONE. HA! A MILLION DOLLARS. THAT'S AMAZING! BUT AGAIN, I WANT TO HAVE BOTH OF YOU STAY HERE, AND I WOULD LIKE HELPERS NOW TO GO TO THE WAR ROOM. HAVE A GOOD TIME. ENJOY YOURSELVES. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP. WOMEN: THANK YOU SO MUCH. AND CONGRATULATIONS AND TAKE CARE. (ALL THANK ONE ANOTHER) A BIG HAND TO THE HELPERS. (RISING STRING MUSIC) THAT'S THE FIRST TIME I HATE LEAVING THERE. THAT'S THE CLASSIC. MELISSA, CAN WE GET SOME MARGARITAS UP IN THE CONFERENCE ROOM? (ALL AGREE, CHATTER HAPPILY) AND WE NEED ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE, SIX MALE MASSEUSES. VIRGIN HERE. THANK YOU. (SUBDUED MUSIC) YOU GUYS HAVE COME ALL THE WAY TO THE END ` TWO CHAMPIONS ` AND I'M REALLY PROUD OF BOTH OF YOU. MATT, YOU WERE THE LEAST WELL-KNOWN OF ANY OF THE CONTESTANTS. BUT THAT DID NOT DISCOURAGE YOU. YOU JUST KEPT GOING AND GOING. YOU WERE THE TYPICAL UNDERDOG. AND YOU SURPRISED EVERYONE. TIME AFTER TIME, AGAIN AND AGAIN, YOU HAD THE MOST WONDERFUL PRESENTATIONS ` VERY ARTICULATE, YOU USED YOUR DOCTOR TITLE, YOUR COMEDY ROUTINE ` EVERYTHING. AND THEN OF COURSE IN THE END, YOU REALLY EXPLODED WHEN YOU DID YOUR FINAL PRESENTATION, AND YOU JUST BLEW EVERYONE AWAY. ON TOP OF ALL THAT, YOU RAISED OVER A HALF A MILLION DOLLARS FOR YOUR CHARITY. THAT IS UNBELIEVABLE. CONGRATULATIONS. AND YOU, GEORGE, ALSO DID AN UNBELIEVABLE JOB. YOU, CONTRARY TO MATT, CAME IN AS THE BIG STAR. YOU WON THE FIRST TASK ` BANG! AND THEN ONE AFTER THE NEXT ` BANG, BANG, BANG. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, I SAW YOU FALLING. AND YOU HAD TO GO AND LOOK NOW DEEP INSIDE OF YOU. CAN YOU DO IT OR NOT? YOU HAD TO START SHIFTING GEARS AND FIND THAT GEAR. BUT YOU FOUND IT. AND YOU PICKED YOURSELF UP, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN ` BANG ` YOU CAME BACK. AND LAST NIGHT, WHEN I SAW THE PRESENTATION, ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. AND YOU RAISED A LOT OF MONEY FOR YOUR CHARITY ` $446,000 FOR YOUR CHARITY. THAT IS AMAZING. SO CONGRATULATIONS. THAT'S A BIG SUM FOR MY CHARITY. YOU KNOW, SAFE KIDS, NOT MANY PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT THIS CHARITY. A MILLION KIDS EVERY YEAR DIE OF PREVENTABLE ACCIDENTS. YOU KNOW, I'M JUST REALLY PROUD TO BE HERE. I'M REALLY EXCITED TO BE HERE. I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. YOU KNOW? I REALLY CAN'T BELIEVE IT. WELL, I HAVE A REALLY DIFFICULT DECISION TO MAKE. (TENSE MUSIC) (SUBDUED MUSIC) I HAVE A REALLY DIFFICULT DECISION TO MAKE. SO, MATT, TELL ME NOW WHY YOU THINK YOU SHOULD BE THE NEW CELEBRITY APPRENTICE. THE MESSAGE WE GOT FROM THE BEGINNING WAS 'WORK HARD'. I DON'T KNOW THAT ANYONE HAS WORKED HARDER THAN ME, CONSISTENTLY, WEEK IN AND WEEK OUT AND TAKEN EVERY OPPORTUNITY WHEN YOU'VE SAID, 'DON'T BE AFRAID TO FAIL,' TO GO OUT AND` TO PUT MAKE-UP ON IN FRONT OF YOU, WITH YOUR PRODUCT. AND TO PUT YOURSELF IN THESE POSITIONS WHERE YOU CAN FALL FLAT ON YOUR FACE. I FELT LIKE ONE OF THE THINGS IN BUSINESS IS TO BE ABLE TO BE A LEADER WHEN YOU NEED TO BE AND TO BE AN ORGANISER WHEN YOU HAVE TO BE, AND TO LEARN HOW TO BRING THE BEST OUT OF PEOPLE. AND I THINK WE BOTH HAD GREAT RECORDS, AND I THINK PART OF THE REASON THAT I DID SO WELL WAS I BROUGHT THE BEST OUT IN PEOPLE AROUND ME AND FIGURED OUT HOW TO MAKE THEM FEEL GOOD AND TO FEEL PASSIONATE ABOUT A PROJECT. AND I THINK THOSE ARE THE THINGS THAT MAKE A GREAT BUSINESSPERSON. AND IN THE END, WHEN YOU QUESTIONED ME ABOUT RAISING MONEY, UM, I SET AN IMPOSSIBLE GOAL AND I BEAT IT. WELL, YOU KNOW, YOU BOTH ARE VERY VERY CLOSE. I MEAN, IT'S, LIKE, DEAD EVEN. I WANT TO HEAR FROM GEORGE NOW. WHY DO YOU THINK YOU SHOULD BE THE NEXT CELEBRITY APPRENTICE? I CAME HERE KIND OF THINKING I'M NOT REALLY A BUSINESS GUY. I'M A CREATIVE GUY. AND WHAT I'VE LEARNT IS THAT ACTUALLY, I DO HAVE A GOOD BUSINESS HEAD. I CAN BE A TEAM PLAYER. AND WHEN IT'S IMPORTANT, I CAN REALLY DIG DEEP INSIDE AND DO THINGS THAT ARE COMPLETELY OUTSIDE OF MY COMFORT ZONE. AND FOR ME, THIS HAS BEEN... I MEAN, I ALREADY FEEL LIKE I'VE WON, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE I'VE RAISED SO MUCH MONEY, AND I FEEL` I DON'T MEAN I'VE WON AGAINST MATT. I JUST FEEL` I DON'T FEEL ANY GREAT LOSS. I'M VERY PROUD OF WHAT I'VE DONE. YOU KNOW, I ABSOLUTELY DID NOT THINK I WOULD GET TO THE END. I JUST HAVE TO SAY THAT, GEORGE, THAT YOU DID AN UNBELIEVABLE JOB, AND I THINK THAT YOU REALISED IN THE MIDDLE, SOMEWHERE, THAT YOU DID NOT HAVE YOUR ENTOURAGE THERE TO HELP YOU, THAT YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN AND THAT YOU HAD TO REACH DEEP DOWN INSIDE YOUR GUT AND FIND THE REAL YOU, FIND THAT GEAR TO SHIFT INTO THAT GETS YOU GOING AGAIN, AND YOU FOUND IT. AND HERE YOU ARE, SITTING AS ONE OF THE TWO FINALISTS. MATT, YOU'VE BEEN A TRUE CHAMPION, AND YOU WERE GRINDING IT OUT TASK AFTER TASK. I THINK MAYBE YOUR CHARITY WAS A BIG MOTIVATION, BECAUSE YOU KEPT REALLY PASSIONATELY TALKING ABOUT ARTHRITIS AND ABOUT YOUR OWN ILLNESS AND WHAT YOU HAD TO DO AND THAT'S WHAT MOTIVATED YOU TO GET INVOLVED IN THAT. SO I JUST WANT TO SAY CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU FOR HAVING DONE SUCH AN EXTRAORDINARY JOB. AND I HAVE A VERY VERY TOUGH DECISION TO MAKE, AND I JUST HAVE TO SAY THAT, MATT, YOU ARE THE NEW CELEBRITY APPRENTICE. (TRIUMPHANT MUSIC) CONGRATULATIONS. THANK YOU. (APPLAUSE) (LAUGHS) THANK YOU VERY MUCH. IT WAS GREAT TO HAVE BOTH OF YOU THERE. CONGRATULATIONS AND` THANK YOU, GOVERNOR! ...GOOD LUCK WITH EVERYTHING. WHEN DO WE START?! (LAUGHTER) THANK YOU VERY MUCH. SEE YOU. THE BOTTOM LINE IS IT'S VERY CLEAR WHY YOU WON ` BECAUSE YOU KICKED SOME SERIOUS BUTT. (LAUGHS) TASK AFTER TASK AFTER TASK. AND THAT, YOU KNOW, MAKES A WINNER. THANK YOU. CONSISTENCY. SO CONGRATULATIONS. THANK YOU. I SAW THAT FIRST WEEK. THE FIRST WEEK, I WAS LIKE, 'THAT'S THE ONE TO WATCH RIGHT THERE.' EXACTLY. 'HE'S NO JOKE.' (MUSIC RISES) I'M SO GLAD I CAME BACK TO HELP. I'M SO GLAD I WAS PART OF THIS. IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL MOMENT FOR BOTH OF THEM. CARSON: MM-HM. (SQUEALING, SCREAMING) OH MY GOD! (LIVELY CHATTER, CLAPPING) YAY! - CARSON: LET'S GET YOU SOME CHAMPAGNE. - (ALL AGREE) POP THAT BUBBLE. OH-OW! YEAH! (LAUGHS) WE'RE FINALLY ALL GONNA DRINK TOGETHER, HUH? (POP!) (CHEERING) THAT NEVER HAPPENS TO CARSON. WELL, YOU BRING OUT THE BEST IN ME, MATT. THIS HAS BEEN MORE FUN THAT I COULD'VE POSSIBLY IMAGINED. THE THINGS WE GOT TO DO ` TO HAVE THE RUN OF THE WIZARDING WORLD OF HARRY POTTER, TO GET TO PUT MAKE-UP ON FOR TYRA BANKS, TO GET TO RECORD A SONG WITH BOY GEORGE AND VINCE NEIL, AND TO GET TO RAISE OVER HALF A MILLION DOLLARS FOR MY CHARITY ` IT'S BEEN AWESOME. AND` AND I GOT TO DO IT WITH MY IDOL, ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER. SO PRETTY MUCH DREAM COME TRUE. WE RAISED A MILLION DOLLARS TOGETHER. THAT IS WONDERFUL. YEAH. IT'S SO NICE. BUT YOU ARE THE NEW CELEBRITY APPRENTICE. YES. CHEERS TO MATT ISEMAN! ALL: CHEERS! THE NEW CELEBRITY APPRENTICE! I HOPE ARNOLD REALLY GIVES ME A JOB.
