After Chris had been fired, Ivana and Kevin returned to the suite for a low-key but friendly welcome. In an interview, Ivana said she was upset that Chris had sent Jennifer M. back up to the suite to avoid the firing. Ivana guessed at the reason Chris spared Jennifer M.: "I think he had probably fallen prey to her hypnotic Fembot spell." The next day, the teams met with Trump and Robert Hanson, President of the Levi's company. But before getting to the task, Trump introduced yet another twist. To even up the teams, The Donald told Mosaic that they had to immediately pick someone to go over to Apex. As Project Manager, Wes mulled the decision over while an impatient Trump hurried the team: "Choose somebody, let's go." Wes finally told Kelly to head over to Apex, in spite of Maria's objections. Jennifer M. said that Apex was very happy with their new team member. In an interview, Kelly said that Wes chose to give him to the opposing team because he's a stronger candidate than Wes. Next, Trump told the candidates about their next task. He said that with so many competitors, Levi's needs to get the message out that they're more than just 501 jeans. The task for the teams would be to communicate that message by developing an in-store promotional catalog. The teams would have access to photographers and models for their photo shoot and a design team to produce their final product. Trump said that the team with the most innovative and exciting catalog, as judged by Robert, would be declared the winner. As always, Trump promised that the losers would meet back in the boardroom, where someone would be fired. The ever-present Carolyn and last year's Apprentice, Bill Rancic, would be Trump's eyes and ears on the task. After Apex warmly welcomed Kelly to the team, Project Manager Kevin led a brainstorming session. Ivana suggested a non-traditional approach to the catalog: a Fit Wheel, where a customer could turn the dials of the wheel based on his or her desired fit to select the proper type of Levi's jeans. Everyone liked the idea, but Jennifer M. had trouble getting her head around it. After both Ivana and Kelly offered explanations and sketches, Jennifer M. said, "I don't know why I don't get how this works." In an interview, Ivana said, "Jen is slow to understand what's going on If you want an out-of-the-box thinker, do not hire Jen." On Mosaic, Project Manager Wes brought the group together for an initial meeting - but it was Maria who seemed to take charge. Maria laid out the elements of the task that she felt were most important. She also told the team that her goal was to push everyone outside of their comfort zones. In an interview, Maria said she had the most experience in advertising. In her own interview, Sandy claimed that Maria wanted to "own" the task. Sandy warned, "It would be an awful, stupid, ridiculous idea to just leave Maria in charge of it." Apex arrived at the photo studio and the team threw themselves into their work - literally. Kevin said that the team had decided to put themselves in front of the camera wearing Levi's jeans instead of using the professional models. Kevin said that they wanted to show normal people finding their fit with Levi's jeans. So Kevin, Ivana, Jennifer M. and Kelly got the model treatment: wardrobe, hair and makeup. Kelly was particularly impressed with how Jennifer M. looked. His exact words when he saw her were: "Holy smokes! Cha cha!" Ivana said that everyone has just one question when it comes to jeans: How does it make me look in the rear? So the team got plenty of shots with the jeans showing off that particular part of the anatomy. At Mosaic's photo shoot, Wes directed the action - at first. But things changed when Maria arrived, or as Wes put it, "When Maria flew into the studio on her broomstick, the whole attitude of the room changed." In an interview, Maria said she felt that no one was "driving the ship" and that someone needed to take charge. So, Maria told the photo staff that she was directing the shoot. But Andy worried that the team was running out of time. He felt that, under Maria's control, they were taking too many shots of each person and that they'd never get all of the jeans photographed in time to meet their deadline. Andy told Wes that he had to do something. But when Wes told Maria that it was time to move on from a particular shot, Maria told Wes, "Do not get in my fricking face. I understand. Back off." In an interview, Sandy said that if she had been Project Manager, she would not have let Maria talk to her like that and get away with it. Sandy added, "We're going to lose this task if we put it in Maria's hands." Mosaic then moved from the photo studio to the design studio - but the change in location didn't change the friction among the team members. In an interview, Maria emphasized that someone needed to take the reigns and drive the task. Maria worked with the designer on the catalog and didn't want anyone else on her team in the room. Sandy called Maria a "control freak". Later, Sandy and Maria sparred verbally over the issue. In an interview, Andy said that Wes was somewhat to blame for the twenty-minute fight; Andy felt that Wes should not have let it go on that long. By the end of the fight, Maria dabbed tears from her eyes and repeated that she was not a control freak. More >>
