i'm loving the hot-tub action in this episode

I didn't mention this last week, as it was a spoiler, but NBC's preview of this week's episode totally spoiled as to who would win the task, by showing two members of Arrow in the hot tub! So obviously, Arrow would win the task and move into the mansion!

Silly NBC!

kind of spoils it for me that i can only see it on yahoo and they have a cross on the person who's fired and also the homepage tells us who goes before you can get to the video.

ho hum, still better than waiting for old age for it to be shown at two in the morning on some obscure station over here

Felt a bit sorry for Amiee. She seemed like a nice person who just a bit out of her depth.

I laughed at the scene about the plastic octopuss and Jen's reaction to it. Aimee seemed truly CRAP at trying to act like a leader. She did have a point about Derek and Jen sitting back and not saying anything about %50 of the customers speaking Spanish ... Seems they were content to sit back and let her take the fall.

I hope we don't have to wait another couple of weeks till the next show because I'm really getting into it now!

And the clip of the following couple of weeks let's drop a few major spoilers also ...

Finally watched episode 6.

Donald Jr *shudder* He keep on getting creepier. Is it just me or does he seem to hold his head kinda weirdly, and it almost bobbles around the place

Also his hand expressions are identical to Trump Sr, which I found hilarious but also really disturbing seeing them both together in the same room! Bring Ivanka back!

Aimee's expression at the end was AWESOME, it made me laugh out loud -- she looked like she wanted to run back and pummell Jen & Derek

Again the task was over too soon, and what really bugged me this episode was how they say "we had the budget for hiring a Spanish speaker". I mean before we used to get the parameters, including budget for the teams, now we never really get much info, and as such, it makes me think the teams are just so deeply uncreative if they HAVE money but utterly fail to think what they could SPEND it on to win.

I kinda ended up fast-forwarding through the reward/jellyfish/hot tub action -- really don't care so much about Nicole and her "aww I finally gave Tim some action, cos I'm so super hot and he wore me down after "six weeks". Love yourself much Nicole?

Kinetic really seem to love Heidi. I love Heidi. Her attempts to let the people know about the sweepstakes in the mall were classic.

no episode this week

I agree. IMO the candidates have got worse and worse as the series' go on. I am not genuinely impressed by anyone from this bunch.

Posting in spoilers as no one else has commented yet

LOL at this weeks episode.

Poor Derek, what an arse. I think it will go down as a classic moment.

Very funny episode this week, though we finally got to hear a budget for the task ($50,000), and Kinetic had NOTHING. Seriously, go-karts? Shocking lack of creativity on display.

Derek really was being set up for a fall with all those confessionals about plotting & scheming. His firing was hilarious though - as was Randall cutting off Trump so many times.

Jen was really likeable at the end, and I loved how she really fought against what Trump was saying. I'm glad she didn't seem to upset to be leaving. I bet that really annoys Trump (like Tyra on ANTM) -- you need to look like your whole life is over when you get eliminated or else...

Angela was AWFUL in the boardroom, she didn't have a leg to stand on, and could hardly speak. Talk about "not going down without a fight" eh Angela

Heidi or Muna to win!

That was a great accent. ETA: I mean that was a great EPISODE! I just read a few posts above me, and someone commented on Muna's fab accent, so I typed that, instead!

Let me just say, I loved Jenn...so I was gutted at her leaving, but she had such a brilliant, respectful exit...I loved it.

Derek turned out to be rather horrible, and I agree with the poster that said he was being set up for a fall...

I just wish NBC hadn't told everyone about the double firing before hand...

LMAO at Derek. Big gulloot, I'm glad he went out that way. Always found his "shaking head" so arrogant.

Loved this week's episode.

"before you fire me, can I just say one thing, because I know you're about to do it..."

"You're fired"..."I saw that one coming for a few minutes"

Loved the way she took all this with humour. And a nice exit, still having respect and love for her team, such a contrast from last week

it won't load for me this week

Yeah, Jenn was great. I was hoping Trump would fire Angela. She just seems like a useless lump.

Didn't really have a problem with Derek. Thought Trump was a little OTT to fire him for making that comment. It was just supposed to be a JOKE! Honestly, Trump is such a drama-queen.

Haha, totally agree on both points. I was really hoping Angela would get the boot, and Trump really has been having a lot of tantrums this year

I'd highly recommend watching any of the MADTV sketches on Youtube, especially the one about Trump's press conference during the feud with Rosie O'Donnell

Angela is so...BLAAAH

Honestly, she had not half the passion of Jenn; who actually made some valid points!

My opinion of Angela is that she's only in the competition in the first place because Trump was impressed by the Olympic connection.

She has the personality of a sack of POTATOES!

Great episode!! Not only did it have a decent worthwhile task, but had an excellent boardroom as well (now we only need to see more of the task)

Interesting how Arrow are doing so well despite the fact they are ignoring their leader. When I heard there was a double firing this week I was convinced it would be Surya and Frank, but Frank has really stepped up recently! Loved the Donald unexpectedly coming out with "fo shizzle" when announcing the reward!

Trump totally over-reacted at the "white trash" comment, but it is in his nature to look very PC about certain things. I can't help but think firing Derek was unfair as 1) he had been doing quite well and 2) they lacked not having him in the boardroom to clarify certain things. Jenn was a terrible leader, but her exit was brilliant!! I don't think Angela should have gone over Jenn, but she desperately needs to step up

Definitely have less respect for Trump after his rash firing and cutting off Randal - I mean how much worse does Trump have to make him look after season 4's finale. That said, Randal did a great job as a boardroom judge.

Heidi still has to be the runaway favourite to win the whole thing though. Muna and Stefani are both dark horses, and now I know who Kristine is, she was quite good this ep as well

I would be very happy with any of them winning, though I think Kristine would be a distant 4th choice compared to Heidi, Stefani & Muna. Maybe with a little more screentime I could warm to her properly. I mean she WAS the only one that we saw being vocal about go-karts not being luxury

As the teams stand now, which team do people prefer - Arrow or Kinetic?

Overall I like more of the people on Kinetic, particularly the girls mentioned above.

I've grown to dislike Frank a hell of a lot less than when the season first started -- I'm hoping the next few people to go home with be Surya, James and Nicole. Tim is a bit of fun, but after him & Nicole, I don't really want to see him stay much longer either.

Stefani is the only one on Arrow that really stands out for me as a competent person, capable of adapting to the different tasks and getting the job done.

Trump has lost the plot.

I definitely prefer Kinetic, as overall they are more competent, but probably more dull also.

Arrow has too many big personalities that I'm surprised haven't clashed more - e.g. Frank, James, Nicola, Surya. Tim seems to be quite competent actually

I do love Arrow's logo though (look out for it if you haven't noticed it yet)

Overall I prefer Kinetic.

The only one I really like on Arrow is Stefani. Tim was okay before he started to constantly hang off Nicole like a dirty rash.

I think you're being slightly harsh to the potatoes!

Is anyone else as surprised as I am that Kinetic now has FEWER members than Arrow, despite Arrow having that losing streak at the start?
