Yes. Tom made bad decisions and he sold nothing. Melody certainly did not deserve to go, and she shouldn't have been in the boardroom in the first place. Tom was a bit vindictive to even bring her in.
She deliberately sabotaged the task because she took a shine to a teapot she'd never seen. Short-sighted and arrogant.

She made the best of an atrocious hand, and sold respectably, but it was an atrocious hand that she was fully responsible for and lumbered the rest of the team with. Melody single-handedly ruined the entire thing. Tom shouldn't have let her, but sadly he wasn't quite psychic enough to work out she was full of sh*t at that early stage.

He wasn't being vindictive, he was taking in the person who cost him the task. He was the perfect person to sell the car seats, too! He established a rapport with the inventor. Could've easily seized the deal, had it come down to a choice between Venture and Logic.

I think if Helen or Zoe had been leading that team, Melody wouldn't have got away with half of what she did, and her contribution in sales would have been valuable.

She should have gone, make it a double firing if needs be. I reckon the production team had a word that there was perhaps some tension brewing due to her attitude, so he kept her in.

I don't think it would have been particularly fair if Melody had gone - there's plenty of things you could suggest were weaknesses but put next to Leon she is a step up.

It's hardly any surprise LS thought she was a 'tiger' at the end - she was next to Tom and Leon.

There was no doubt Leon had to go, he brought nothing to the Team. He let his admiration of Melody blind side him. However, Melody, no matter how good a sellor surely cannot win this thing whereas it's a perfect role for Tom. surely he'll get his vengeance in the end.

Now that would have been an interesting episode !

What I don't get is in the little bit I saw tuned in halfway her and leon were showing someone the teapot and they were saying no and the backpack yes unless I misunderstod it. I cantstand her voice so woud have preferred her to go but tbh leon tended to luck out as he did nothing for a while so deserved to go
