"The Apprentice," 2010, Week 7 - Recap and Review

Episode 7 started with a knock down drag out fight among the women. Mahsa and Brandy were at each other's throats, because, as usual, Mahsa couldn't keep her mouth shut following episode 6's boardroom. This time she was running off at the mouth in front of the men which made her teammates irate.

The women's team had a huge disadvantage and a huge advantage. Liza, their project manager knew nothing about Broadway. On the other hand Stephanie, the strongest women's player, studied at a conservatory. Unfortunately, Liza chose not to take advantage of Stephanie's strength.

Unbelievably, Liza sent Stephanie to print marketing materials. The women just had a huge fight because Stephanie did everything on the last task. She sent her off with Mahsa which can't be a good thing.

The women used monologue and songs rather than presenting pieces of the play. The presentation landed a little flat.

The men initially had trouble from David. No surprise. Steuart tried to sideline him with meaningless jobs, but when he got involved David was coming up with the creative ideas for the task. David stepped up to the plate and made himself useful in this task.

Ivanka dropped in to visit the men's team and recognized David's contribution to the team. He had to do something after being ripped apart in the boardroom last week.

The men's production went amazingly well. Their only flaw was Steuart 's fumbling during the final presentation.

An Astonishing Boardroom - "The Apprentice," 2010, week 7 Recap
Mahsa walked through the door of the boardroom looking for a fight, and she got it.

The men won and were quickly dismissed.

It was revealed that she told the men how much the women made last week,. Essentially, she knew the team lost before they went into the boardroom. That kind of information is a game changer, and it is almost unbelievable that Mahsa divulged the information but we know she doesn't know when to shut her mouth.

Mahsa tried to deflect the issue by saying that Clint told her what the men made last week, which he didn't do. The men were watching the boardroom from the suite and stormed back into the boardroom.

Clint called Mahsa out for lying about him. It was quite a rumble that ended with Mahsa's firing. (If you missed week 7 of "The Apprentice" you have to go to NBC and watch the video.)
