Helen vs Melodie. Melodie was as useless as Jason as PM.

No it reminds of Rory vs Tre...where Tre completely obliterated Rory in the boardroom.

There was so much wrong with Jason still being there, it was time he left.

And what was Nick talking about? There was nothing disgraceful about Luisa's actions - she just wanted to get things done and get a decision off a very indecisive person. And she didn't even do it - in a Debra Barr kind of way.

...but Tre did not try to take the role of PM from Rory. Meanwhile Helen attempted to do a coup d'état against Melodie. Even though Helen failed, it was the first coup d'état attempt in The Apprentice history if I am not mistaken.

I must say I have no idea what you're on about.

Wasn't there a week in a previous series where someone attempted to overthrow the PM, or the PM considered standing down, or something? I could have sworn they'd actually gone through with an abdication before, but they kept saying tonight that this was the first time.

Helen attempted to overthrow Melodie. However, Helen failed to do so. Melodie was in a way "stronger" then Jason. She suffered the same fate as Jason, though. LS fired her on the week when she showed weakness and indecisiveness.

Watch this Helen's hostile takeover. Helen was more diplomatic compared to Luisa. Helen failed as Tom did not back her up. Luisa was lucky because Fran and Neil were on her side.

Heh. Yeah. That's the one I was thinking of.

Helen: "Is it best if I take over as project manager?"
Melody: "Okay...no to that..."
