0:00:00 > 0:00:03Previously on the Celebrity Apprentice...
0:00:03 > 0:00:06Sharon Osbourne grew tired of tenacity.
0:00:06 > 0:00:07It's not a sweet victory.
0:00:07 > 0:00:10I don't like the dynamic of what's going down with the women.
0:00:10 > 0:00:12But, with only Bret Michaels
0:00:12 > 0:00:16and Curtis Stone left on the men's team, Trump made a surprise move.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19Rocksolid, you've hit rock bottom.
0:00:19 > 0:00:22Curtis, Maria, Sharon, switch up right now.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25Then, the new teams were tasked with creating
0:00:25 > 0:00:27and selling a celebrity workout class...
0:00:27 > 0:00:31This is a money-raising task, so call all of your friends
0:00:31 > 0:00:32and come down.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35As project manager, Sharon, cut loose,
0:00:35 > 0:00:37putting the rock in Rocksolid.
0:00:37 > 0:00:38Bending over and thrusting.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40You know you want to.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43Pump up the wiener, pump up the wiener.
0:00:43 > 0:00:48When we got the rock and roll theme going, it was like, "Yeah."
0:00:48 > 0:00:50Under Holly Robinson Peete's leadership,
0:00:50 > 0:00:53the new Tenacity took a conservative approach.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56Curtis and I really stepped up to create the exercise, mostly
0:00:56 > 0:00:59because we have a lot of experience when it comes to exercising.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01When it came time to start the classes,
0:01:01 > 0:01:04both teams flexed their rolodexes.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07Oh thanks, Nick, the Lady Gaga.
0:01:07 > 0:01:1110,000 dollars from Piers Morgan!
0:01:11 > 0:01:15But neither project manager was feeling confident.
0:01:15 > 0:01:16I desperately need that ten grand,
0:01:16 > 0:01:18or else I'm probably not going to win this.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20I just kept thinking that Sharon was calling, you know,
0:01:20 > 0:01:24Sir Elton John and, you know, the Queen of England.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26I don't know if I can compete with that.
0:01:26 > 0:01:29- I need you to just stand in for people who couldn't be here.- OK.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32I'm trying to say politely as possible,
0:01:32 > 0:01:36- "Where's that- BLEEP- money? I need your money."
0:01:36 > 0:01:37When the totals were counted...
0:01:37 > 0:01:41Rocksolid raised 131,803 dollars.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Wow. Don, tell me.
0:01:44 > 0:01:49They raised 206,090 dollars.
0:01:49 > 0:01:50BLEEP
0:01:50 > 0:01:54347,893 dollars, Holly.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56Holly proved the strongest of all,
0:01:56 > 0:02:00winning the most money for a single task in Apprentice history.
0:02:00 > 0:02:04- Can I just say...- Yes. - I'm going to be cutting, directly,
0:02:04 > 0:02:07a cheque to Sharon's charity.
0:02:07 > 0:02:08For you, I have to.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11But Holly wasn't the only one feeling generous.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14I'm not going to fire anybody tonight.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16Awesome. Woo!
0:02:25 > 0:02:30- Wow, that is a lot of money!- Woo!
0:02:31 > 0:02:35- Holly, to your charity, my love. - Thank you babe, cheers.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38- Incredible job. - Oh, here you go.- To Holly!
0:02:38 > 0:02:41What this amount of money can do for the HollyRod Foundation
0:02:41 > 0:02:42is tremendous.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49I've been away from my children for a while now,
0:02:49 > 0:02:51and to be able to call them and tell them that, you know,
0:02:51 > 0:02:54Mommy won all this money, I'm just so proud.
0:02:54 > 0:02:58Mr Trump, he brings the jerky in every single time.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00I knew it when he said to you, "You've lost,"
0:03:00 > 0:03:01cos he was winding you up.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03And then I knew.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06I was just gutted when we found out that we'd lost.
0:03:06 > 0:03:10It's a tough pill to swallow. We raised a lot of money.
0:03:10 > 0:03:15But, if anybody was going to get it, I'm glad that Holly got it.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17But am I pissed? Sure, I'm pissed!
0:03:24 > 0:03:27# Money, money, money, money
0:03:27 > 0:03:28# Money!
0:03:28 > 0:03:31# Money, money, money, money
0:03:31 > 0:03:33# Money!
0:03:33 > 0:03:36# Some people got to have it
0:03:36 > 0:03:38# Ye-eah
0:03:38 > 0:03:42# Some people really need it
0:03:42 > 0:03:43# Hey, listen to me, y'all
0:03:43 > 0:03:49# Do things, do things, do things Bad things with it
0:03:50 > 0:03:53# Dollar bills, y'all come on
0:03:53 > 0:03:57# That mean, oh mean
0:03:57 > 0:03:58# Mean green
0:03:58 > 0:04:02# Almighty dollar
0:04:02 > 0:04:05# You know that money...
0:04:05 > 0:04:09# Give me a nickel, brother Can you spare a dime?
0:04:09 > 0:04:15# Money can drive some people out of their minds
0:04:20 > 0:04:25# Money, money, money, money... #
0:04:35 > 0:04:36Hi.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39Oh, I miss you honey!
0:04:39 > 0:04:42I saw my husband, who I haven't seen in a long time.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45He was a sight for sore eyes, and I just was so happy to see him.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47- How are you?- I'm good, I have something to tell you.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49Now you're making me nervous. What's going on?
0:04:49 > 0:04:51You and I made a family decision that
0:04:51 > 0:04:54I would leave for an extended period of time.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57But, anyway I mean the whole reason is cos of these kids with autism.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00I am so thrilled to be playing for the HollyRod Foundation.
0:05:00 > 0:05:05We are raising money to help parents and children affected by autism.
0:05:05 > 0:05:09Help them access affordable treatment for their children.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13So, I was the project manager of the last task.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15And I have something to give you.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19This is what I got from this task.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21- Open it up.- So, you won? - Just open it up.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24Just open it, and just see what it is.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26347...
0:05:28 > 0:05:29I got to see my wife.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33I was so excited to see her. And, I watch the show all the time.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36And when she was going to be on I was like, "Great, it's going to
0:05:36 > 0:05:37"raise money for HollyRod."
0:05:37 > 0:05:40But never in my wildest dreams did I think it was going to be
0:05:40 > 0:05:42347,000. So, I'm ecstatic right now.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44- OK, I have a little surprise for you, too.- What?
0:05:44 > 0:05:46I know you've been gone a long time, but...
0:05:46 > 0:05:48Hello, sister!
0:05:48 > 0:05:51Ah!
0:05:51 > 0:05:53That Rodney Peete, he's always surprising me.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56Just when I think I'm surprising him, he surprises me.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59We've been one-upping each other for our whole marriage.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02- Hi, Mom. - Hi, Rodney.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04Oh, my God, you guys, I'm so glad to see you!
0:06:04 > 0:06:07I miss you guys so much! You happy to see me?
0:06:07 > 0:06:09- I want to stay here. - You want to stay with mom?
0:06:09 > 0:06:11I started the HollyRod Foundation because,
0:06:11 > 0:06:12all of a sudden, out of nowhere,
0:06:12 > 0:06:15we get this devastating diagnosis of autism for our oldest son.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18It just brought us to our knees, literally, as a family.
0:06:18 > 0:06:25- 347,893 dollars... - For HollyRod.- ...for HollyRod.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28So many parents are out there with children with autism
0:06:28 > 0:06:31and they don't even have an opportunity or way to treat them.
0:06:31 > 0:06:36With 347,000, there's so much we can do, there's so many people
0:06:36 > 0:06:38with autism that we can help and families that we can assist.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40It was just like a dream come true.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43It was probably one of the best days of my life.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00- Good morning. - Good morning.
0:07:00 > 0:07:05We're standing in the ballroom of Trump Soho, just opening.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08This is the last room we have to complete,
0:07:08 > 0:07:10and we're very excited about it.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13Now, to my left are two great executives, Jim Abrams
0:07:13 > 0:07:15and John Young.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17They're with Clockwork Home Services.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19Tell us about your company.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22We're the parent company to three great brands.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24Benjamin Franklin, The Punctual Plumber,
0:07:24 > 0:07:26One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning
0:07:26 > 0:07:29and Mister Sparky, America's On-Time Electrician.
0:07:29 > 0:07:33As the co-founders of the company, we made a commitment to build
0:07:33 > 0:07:36the world's largest home services company.
0:07:36 > 0:07:40And you can help us achieve that goal by creating three
0:07:40 > 0:07:43radio commercials, one for each brand.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46You're going to be judged on your originality,
0:07:46 > 0:07:50the brand integration, and, live performance of the commercials.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53All right, pick you project managers, please.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56- Summer, you want it? You do? - You want it?
0:07:56 > 0:07:58- What do you think? - I think you should do it.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00You want me to do it?
0:08:00 > 0:08:03- OK, Sharon, who's your project manager?- Bret.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05- That would be me.- Really? Wow.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07It'll be tough for me cos on time is not my speciality.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10- That's true. You've proven that. - I'm going to fix that.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12This is not a man that knows about time, fellas.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15He could not work for Clockwork.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18As soon as Mr Trump presented the task, I felt that I could do this.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20I could be project manager.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23Singing jingles in a studio, what could possibly go wrong?
0:08:23 > 0:08:26- Holly, who's your project manager? - Summer Sanders.- I am.
0:08:26 > 0:08:29Very solid player. In fact, she could work for you.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32I don't know why I volunteered to be project manager.
0:08:32 > 0:08:36I have no experience with recording studios and stuff like that.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39But, I've got Cyndi Lauper, obviously proven artist.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42Holly Robinson Peete started out as a singer and actress.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45So, I knew I had a great support system.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48The project manager of the winning team will get
0:08:48 > 0:08:5120,000 dollars for your charity.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54Mr Trump we'd like to add an additional 20,000 dollars
0:08:54 > 0:08:56and match that for this charity.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59You heard that. 40,000 dollars.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01Yes.
0:09:01 > 0:09:04You all escaped at the last boardroom.
0:09:04 > 0:09:08I promise you, somebody will be fired at the next boardroom.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10And, it could be two.
0:09:10 > 0:09:12Whenever you get a free ride from Mr Trump,
0:09:12 > 0:09:14there's something waiting on the other end.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16So, we're all a little concerned that two of us
0:09:16 > 0:09:18are going to get fired at some point.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21Now, to my right is Eric Trump.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24Eric is my third child, he's a Georgetown graduate,
0:09:24 > 0:09:27and he's here for the very first time.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30Eric and Ivanka will be my eyes and ears.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Well listen, go out, do a great job.
0:09:33 > 0:09:3640,000 dollars to the winning project manager.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39- Sounds good to me.- Yes. - Thank you.- Thank you.
0:09:39 > 0:09:40Thank you. Thank you.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43Awesome, let's do it.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51All right. So we got to have fun today
0:09:51 > 0:09:53and just think about each one of these and create each one
0:09:53 > 0:09:56- with its own little special twist. - Yup.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59I honestly think that we work well as a team
0:09:59 > 0:10:04because we're all very rock and roll. We all are very similar.
0:10:04 > 0:10:05How about this?
0:10:05 > 0:10:07My name's Ben Frank and I'm here to say
0:10:07 > 0:10:10You got a problem in your toilet? That's OK
0:10:10 > 0:10:12Cos I can plunge it out.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15For One Hour Air Conditioning And Heating,
0:10:15 > 0:10:17"I'm freezing. Help me!"
0:10:17 > 0:10:20"I'm freezing and I can't get up!"
0:10:20 > 0:10:23- Yes, "I'm freezing and I can't get up."- Baby, I got your hour power.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25Let me warm you with this.
0:10:32 > 0:10:36On the way over in the van ride, Sharon, Maria and I were losing it.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38I mean, we were completely perving out.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41Can I suck your plunger Mister Franklin?
0:10:41 > 0:10:46Oh, Mister Franklin, can I suck your plunger?
0:10:46 > 0:10:50Sharon is funny because sometimes she is completely out there.
0:10:50 > 0:10:54I mean, says stuff that blows my mind,
0:10:54 > 0:10:55and I thought I've heard it all, right?
0:10:55 > 0:10:58- Have you been- BLEEP - up a storm?
0:10:58 > 0:11:00Have you got the poops?
0:11:05 > 0:11:08FARTING NOISES
0:11:08 > 0:11:12No, as you're dialling the number, you know, you can hear farting.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14- 100.- Wait, wait.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28Our job is to create three radio commercials.
0:11:28 > 0:11:33My main concern is, if it's funny, it makes them listen.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35So that's what I was thinking.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37They may, but you know, you never know. I learned that the hard way.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39The task is to create three
0:11:39 > 0:11:4230-second radio spots for Clockwork Home Services.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45I think the task is very exciting. It's creative, it's fun,
0:11:45 > 0:11:49and I think everyone of us can bring a little something to it.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52Can I just go through like a few tasks, right away?
0:11:52 > 0:11:55Cyndi, I want you to do, like, the lyrics and the music
0:11:55 > 0:11:57- and we come up with the jingle. - Yeah.
0:11:57 > 0:12:01So in this task, Cyndi will play a very important role.
0:12:01 > 0:12:05Cyndi is extremely creative, but all over the place.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08That's why it's so important for me to keep Cyndi focused.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11I would like to do a voiceover and a jingle.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13So, maybe you have a voiceover in one of them,
0:12:13 > 0:12:15- and a jingle in another. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18You know, I don't have a problem doing a jingle either. So...
0:12:18 > 0:12:19- OK, good.- OK, great.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21Cyndi wants to grasp things in her own language.
0:12:21 > 0:12:25She sort of marches to her own music.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28But, let me tell you something about Cyndi, Cyndi is a creative mind
0:12:28 > 0:12:30and creative minds are wired differently.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33The key is how Summer manages Cyndi.
0:12:40 > 0:12:41- You know what I mean?- Yeah.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49Make sure we got everything.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52Thank you, Maria-licious.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54No problem.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57We've got half an hour for our meeting.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00Oh, here we go. Look. There's Ben Franklin.
0:13:00 > 0:13:03The Punctual Plumber.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05On-Time Electrician.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08When we first got to rooms at the recording studio,
0:13:08 > 0:13:10I realised that we were right across the lobby
0:13:10 > 0:13:11from the enemy.
0:13:15 > 0:13:19So, I immediately took our posters and huge signs
0:13:19 > 0:13:20and moved them into our room.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22Yeah, we need those in here.
0:13:22 > 0:13:23Please.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33Then I accidentally flipped theirs around
0:13:33 > 0:13:36so they couldn't see the slogans of the company.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38Horrible, horrible man.
0:13:40 > 0:13:41How you doing, guys?
0:13:49 > 0:13:53- When does our guy come? - Any minute. 10.15 was our time.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56- Why, hello. Hi, I'm Holly. - John Young.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58Nice to see you, John.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00Both Summer and I were excited for the executive meeting.
0:14:00 > 0:14:04The executive meetings in these tasks are so key.
0:14:04 > 0:14:08I've learned after many tasks to ask specific questions
0:14:08 > 0:14:10and watch their body language.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13Is humour super important to you?
0:14:13 > 0:14:17Or is it more of reality and here's how we work?
0:14:17 > 0:14:19I know there's a lot of jokes around plumbers.
0:14:19 > 0:14:23- But, you know, these men have families, they have children.- Yeah.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25And, their kids are proud of what they do.
0:14:25 > 0:14:29So, you know, we represent really a lot of hard-working people
0:14:29 > 0:14:32that get in and do things that nobody else wants to do.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34Humour at their expense I wouldn't want to see.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36'When we got a chance to talk to the executives,
0:14:36 > 0:14:39'we pretty much learned that they have very strong values,
0:14:39 > 0:14:42'they're really into good service and, most importantly,'
0:14:42 > 0:14:44we just knew that we weren't going to push the envelope.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Um... Why Ben Franklin?
0:14:46 > 0:14:48Well, Benjamin Franklin's an icon of the country.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51And, when he moved from Boston to Philadelphia,
0:14:51 > 0:14:53the one thing he took with him was his bathtub.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55So, he was thinking plumbing early on.
0:14:55 > 0:14:59Because he took a lot of baths in...France.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06She is a wealth of knowledge right there. I'm telling you.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08It's amazing.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10- There was no plumbing there. - Exactly.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12He just...there was like buckets of water in a big tub.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14- Right.- Early plumbing.
0:15:14 > 0:15:15Oh, oh, it is? That's true.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17OK, early plumbing.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20You know, I saw John Adams on HBO.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23Apparently, Ben Franklin enjoyed taking baths
0:15:23 > 0:15:25with women and things, you know.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28And so, I thought that was funny.
0:15:28 > 0:15:32Benjamin Franklin was so key in the revolution that that kind of...
0:15:32 > 0:15:34SHE HUMS
0:15:34 > 0:15:37..is so... But I don't know if it's ever been used.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39'This is my first real time working with Cyndi.'
0:15:39 > 0:15:42I think what you need to do with Cyndi is really harness her energy,
0:15:42 > 0:15:44and let her excel at what's she's good at.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48- I don't have any more questions. - Me neither.- Do you guys? - Thank you so much.- Yeah.
0:15:48 > 0:15:51I just want one more time. I remember the old beer commercials.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54And then, there's Benjamin Franklin. I think... Oh, well, all right.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56But it's nice to know about the tub.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58THEY CHUCKLE
0:15:58 > 0:16:00- Very good. Awesome. - Thank you very much.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02- ALL: Thanks you, guys. - Pleasure to meet you, yeah.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05- Very nice to meet you. - Pleasure to meet you.
0:16:05 > 0:16:08All I have to say is that their world is going to be rocked
0:16:08 > 0:16:10when they go over there to Sharon and Bret.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12They're not going to be ready for that. That movie.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15'Probably the thing that stuck out the most in the executive meeting
0:16:15 > 0:16:16'was that I think it's very key'
0:16:16 > 0:16:20for us to not go too far out of the box.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23Now, those cats next door in Rocksolid,
0:16:23 > 0:16:25they're way too wild for this task.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28SHE BLOWS A RASPBERRY
0:16:28 > 0:16:31We're going around, and I'm tooting.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33HE BLOWS A RASPBERRY
0:16:34 > 0:16:36- Here they come.- Hello.
0:16:36 > 0:16:37Nice to meet you, I'm Bret.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39- Hi there, I'm Maria. - Nice to meet you.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41We have lots of great questions.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44'When Jim and John came in, the executives from Clockwork,'
0:16:44 > 0:16:45I had a gazillion questions.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48I wanted to know exactly where they wanted to go,
0:16:48 > 0:16:50cos my jingles were getting way too out there.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53Are you looking for more of Americana feel, a new ad...?
0:16:53 > 0:16:56Right. What we want to do is just grab their mind and say,
0:16:56 > 0:16:58"OK, plumbing is Ben Franklin,
0:16:58 > 0:17:01"electric's Sparky, and air conditioning is One-Hour."
0:17:01 > 0:17:04If we could get that link in their minds so that they, they think,
0:17:04 > 0:17:06"This service, this company."
0:17:06 > 0:17:08How does humour do in your ads?
0:17:08 > 0:17:10Humour is difficult to pull off.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13When somebody does hit it,
0:17:13 > 0:17:15it's great.
0:17:15 > 0:17:16Um...
0:17:16 > 0:17:19We don't want to make it where it's offensive humour,
0:17:19 > 0:17:21cos that's not what you're looking for.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23But, we go out there and then we reel it back in.
0:17:23 > 0:17:26The only thing I'd be concerned about is, of course,
0:17:26 > 0:17:29plumbers have been kind of the butt of jokes.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31THEY CHUCKLE
0:17:31 > 0:17:34Humour at their expense, I think, would not be a good thing.
0:17:34 > 0:17:38Absolutely. The 800 cash, was that a cash or credit?
0:17:38 > 0:17:42- You got cash back...- For Ben Franklin...- For Ben Franklin. - "If it's any delay, it's you we pay."
0:17:42 > 0:17:45We pay five dollars for every minute we're late.
0:17:45 > 0:17:49The other two services, if we're late, you do not pay for the repair.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51Can you imagine a homeowner right now in this economy going,
0:17:51 > 0:17:54"If these guys show up late, they're giving me a hundred bucks?"
0:17:54 > 0:17:57I'm going to miff my address when you guys come out to my house.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00"Yeah, that was 992. Oh, I'm sorry, did I say that wrong?"
0:18:00 > 0:18:02THEY LAUGH
0:18:02 > 0:18:04'The executives were very corporate.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06'They were like as serious as a heart attack.'
0:18:06 > 0:18:09There were no laughs coming out of those two.
0:18:09 > 0:18:14You know, you want to say, "Lighten up. Lighten up, boys."
0:18:14 > 0:18:15Of course, I didn't.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21- Thank you for your time, we appreciate it.- Pleasure meeting you.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24- Thanks, nice to meet you.- Thank you. - Very nice to meet you. - Nice meeting you.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26Thank you. All right. Thanks again, guys.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28Oh, this is going to be good.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30They'll get rid of the three of us tomorrow.
0:18:30 > 0:18:33It's OK. Guys, let's just laugh it off.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35THEY LAUGH
0:18:43 > 0:18:44Right now, it's about the creative.
0:18:44 > 0:18:48So we've got to get the creative, the storyboard basically for each one.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51Yeah. OK, so you guys are each doing one of the commercials.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54You have Ben Franklin, Punctual Plumber.
0:18:54 > 0:18:55And that's yours to work on.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58My strategy as project manager was to make sure
0:18:58 > 0:19:01that I tasked out each of the commercials.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03So I handed Holly a commercial,
0:19:03 > 0:19:05I handed Curtis a commercial,
0:19:05 > 0:19:08and I handed Cyndi a commercial. And then, I'll make the final approval.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10I think it's important to have
0:19:10 > 0:19:12some sort of little verbal exchange experience.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14- I think it is important to... - Listen.- Yes.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17- A lot of people don't know Ben Franklin was punctual.- Right.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20So maybe it's Thomas Jefferson going,
0:19:20 > 0:19:22"Oh, Ben...Franklin."
0:19:22 > 0:19:25"Yes, Thomas Jefferson," or something, you know.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28"We...when will you be ready to go to Paris?
0:19:28 > 0:19:31"And I heard you want to take your bathtub."
0:19:31 > 0:19:35Maybe that's wrong. Or...or...the, the desk.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38- Listen, last time I was project manager...- Yeah.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41Um... I got in the boardroom, and I threw you under the bus.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44So I want to make sure that I'm 100% clear with you.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46I love your creativity.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49- All right.- I want you to go for it with your creativity,
0:19:49 > 0:19:51but I would love for you to listen.
0:19:51 > 0:19:52- I am.- To all of us.- I am.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55'Cyndi needs to be told exactly what to do.
0:19:55 > 0:19:59'I mean, and honestly, that's the way it works in any business.'
0:19:59 > 0:20:01A good manager knows how to manage everyone
0:20:01 > 0:20:03the way they need to be managed.
0:20:03 > 0:20:06So I just want to be clear up front.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08You were not feeling any input from us ladies,
0:20:08 > 0:20:12and this is very important that you open yourself up to input on it.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15So tell me what my task is exactly.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17'I did whatever they asked me to do.
0:20:17 > 0:20:21'I wasn't the leader, and even if I was, they don't listen to me.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23'They don't listen to anyone. They know everything.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26'I get tired of the whole people turning their backs on me.'
0:20:26 > 0:20:29- BLEEP- that. I am not in high school any more.
0:20:29 > 0:20:30Yeah, OK.
0:20:30 > 0:20:33You're going to be a bitch by the end of this thing
0:20:33 > 0:20:35if your life depends on it.
0:20:35 > 0:20:36No, that was very good. Very clear.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39Curtis, this is where our issues came before,
0:20:39 > 0:20:42- was that she was just all over the place and couldn't redirect her. - Yeah.- Couldn't focus her.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45There's a little bit of a different vibe with Tenacity
0:20:45 > 0:20:47than there was with Rocksolid.
0:20:47 > 0:20:51We have to be very, very close and keep her...
0:20:51 > 0:20:52Yeah, you're right.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55'Holly and Summer are very methodical and very disciplined
0:20:55 > 0:20:57'in the way they go about their tasks.'
0:20:57 > 0:21:00And, let's face it, they can be a little bit bitchy.
0:21:00 > 0:21:01You are right.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05We've got to come up with the jingle,
0:21:05 > 0:21:07and we've got to get the concept down.
0:21:07 > 0:21:11We've got to make sure we apply the jingle and the actual work.
0:21:11 > 0:21:15We have to create three 30-second live radio spots
0:21:15 > 0:21:18for Mister Sparky Electric, Benjamin Franklin Plumbing,
0:21:18 > 0:21:21and One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Which one do you want to start on first?
0:21:23 > 0:21:24One Hour?
0:21:24 > 0:21:25Yes.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27Air Conditioning And Heating?
0:21:27 > 0:21:29No, "Heating And Air Conditioning."
0:21:29 > 0:21:33- No, "Air Conditioning And Heating." - Look at mine. "Heating And Air Conditioning."
0:21:33 > 0:21:36- Uh-oh.- All right. What does the yellow folder say?
0:21:36 > 0:21:39- "Heating And Air Conditioning." - They did it wrong on that truck.
0:21:39 > 0:21:40How dare they?!
0:21:40 > 0:21:45One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning is a pain in the ass
0:21:45 > 0:21:50because it doesn't flow when you say it.
0:21:50 > 0:21:55Their logo is, "Always on time or you don't pay a dime."
0:21:55 > 0:21:58What if it was something like... OK.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03It's hot out... It's hot outside, can I rely on you?
0:22:03 > 0:22:06# Yes, we'll be there I'm feeling cold
0:22:06 > 0:22:08# We'll get you some hot air Dun, dun, dun... #
0:22:08 > 0:22:11- Cos this is time-consuming, this- BLEEP- jingle.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13As a project manager, I wanted all three of us
0:22:13 > 0:22:16to work on all three jingles all the time.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18'It's also a little bit of what slowed us down.'
0:22:18 > 0:22:22- So just go with me here.- Right. Go on, go on.- Here, we've got open it up and have fun.
0:22:22 > 0:22:24Bling, bling. One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning,
0:22:24 > 0:22:25how can we help you?
0:22:25 > 0:22:28My goodness, I'm feeling hot and sticky.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30One Hour will be there very quickly.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32Like...
0:22:32 > 0:22:35- Sticky with my little- BLEEP.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37No, just, but it's funny, though.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39I'm feeling so hot and sticky, right?
0:22:39 > 0:22:43'Bret wanted to do something that sounded a bit sexy.'
0:22:43 > 0:22:45But, those executives were very,
0:22:45 > 0:22:48very corporate.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50Very politically correct.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52# One Hour, got the power
0:22:52 > 0:22:54# Always on time or you don't pay a dime. #
0:22:54 > 0:22:56Boom!
0:22:56 > 0:22:59# One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning... #
0:23:00 > 0:23:02Uh-oh.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04I mean, I'm probably a bit weak in the musical department,
0:23:04 > 0:23:08- so in terms of...- Well, Cyndi can help you with that.- Yeah. - And Holly too.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11So what Summer did was split up these 30-second commercials.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13The first 20 seconds or so would be
0:23:13 > 0:23:15some kind of written component.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17'And the last ten seconds or so would be a jingle.'
0:23:17 > 0:23:19OK, so let's see if I can do this in 20.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning, how can we save you time?
0:23:22 > 0:23:24I need someone to come out and look at my heater.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26Would 4-5pm suit you?
0:23:26 > 0:23:29But can you really stick to a time, it's just I've got so much on.
0:23:29 > 0:23:32There was a problem with Curtis' radio spot
0:23:32 > 0:23:35in that he's from Australia. And so they just have
0:23:35 > 0:23:37a different way of speaking.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39Not just accent, but like, the words that they use.
0:23:39 > 0:23:42- I like the concept.- Beautiful.
0:23:42 > 0:23:43Thanks, Curtis.
0:23:43 > 0:23:44Yeah.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48They're words and things in there that are wrong.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50"I've got so much on today," or something.
0:23:50 > 0:23:54- He's trying to say, "I got a lot going on." He... It needs to be tweaked.- Uh-huh. You're right.
0:23:54 > 0:23:58'I think the weakest player on our team was Curtis.'
0:23:58 > 0:24:00He doesn't have the ability to create a jingle.
0:24:00 > 0:24:03He was very far, far out of his element.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05I'm going to change a few of your words, OK?
0:24:05 > 0:24:07- Yeah.- Don't take it personally.
0:24:17 > 0:24:18All right, let's move on.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21- What's our next one? - Should we do Benjamin?
0:24:21 > 0:24:22Absolutely.
0:24:22 > 0:24:25OK. So it starts with the ring, ring.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27# The Punctual Plumber. #
0:24:27 > 0:24:29- And the woman is saying that... - # Oooh. #
0:24:29 > 0:24:32- ..her pipes are blocked. - Right.
0:24:32 > 0:24:33HE CHUCKLES
0:24:33 > 0:24:34Or frozen.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37'The task today is to produce,
0:24:37 > 0:24:41'write, and perform three live radio spots'
0:24:41 > 0:24:46for the company that has heating and air conditioning.
0:24:46 > 0:24:50And also plumbers and electricians.
0:24:50 > 0:24:51Bust it out, Benny.
0:24:51 > 0:24:53HE BEATBOXES
0:24:53 > 0:24:58And just get like a grove going for Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, yeah.
0:24:58 > 0:24:59# Bring it, bring it, bring it. #
0:24:59 > 0:25:03Like something that's just... Is that pretty good? Or no?
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Just go with me on this.
0:25:05 > 0:25:06Ring, ring. Right?
0:25:06 > 0:25:09Hi, I'm Ben, the Punctual Plumber from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12We plumbers know people crack a lot of jokes at our expense.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14What the hell?
0:25:14 > 0:25:16We know people like to crack a lot of jokes.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19- And he's going to go, "CRACK."- You can't!- I think they won't like it.
0:25:19 > 0:25:23'It's a very big risk to put that in the radio spot.'
0:25:23 > 0:25:27The executives of the company wanted to avoid
0:25:27 > 0:25:29any cheap shots at plumbers.
0:25:29 > 0:25:33Plumbers' cracks. You know, plumbers' belly.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35You know, the butt crack. All of that.
0:25:35 > 0:25:38I'm telling you right now, that's the jingle.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41- Oh, they won't like that. - They'll love it.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44This is so tough to decide what is too far.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47I don't think those people will laugh.
0:25:47 > 0:25:48You got to do it.
0:25:48 > 0:25:51'Sharon and Maria definitely thought
0:25:51 > 0:25:53'there should be no line about the crack in there.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55'And I said, "You know what, how about this?'
0:25:55 > 0:25:58"You fix a problem by addressing a problem."
0:25:58 > 0:25:59I'll take the fall.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02'Listen, I've possessed some plumber's crack
0:26:02 > 0:26:03'a few times in my life'
0:26:03 > 0:26:06and I know how hurtful it is when people made fun of me.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09So I try never to make fun of plumber's crack.
0:26:09 > 0:26:11It's a serious matter.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13I will take the fall on this one. If I'm wrong, it's just good.
0:26:13 > 0:26:16I'm telling you, I will not throw you under the bus.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20I will take the sword.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23OK, so that sucker's done.
0:26:23 > 0:26:26Benjamin Franklin Plumbing. On time, every time.
0:26:26 > 0:26:28# Just call Ben
0:26:28 > 0:26:30# Just call eight, seven, seven Ben, 70, 76. #
0:26:30 > 0:26:33Yeah, but can you make it faster?
0:26:33 > 0:26:35Like, just call eight, seven, seven, 70... Ben.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38Whatever. Can you make it a little faster?
0:26:38 > 0:26:42- Oh, yeah.- OK, cool.- You can make anything faster as long as it's clear.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44- Yeah, yeah, yeah. Exactly. - That's all right.- So...
0:26:44 > 0:26:46'Cyndi started doing jingles.'
0:26:46 > 0:26:47And, I knew that Cyndi was going
0:26:47 > 0:26:50to need a little help getting her script together,
0:26:50 > 0:26:53so I did the creative testimonial for her commercial.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55"Benjamin Franklin, the Punctual Plumber.
0:26:55 > 0:26:59"I woke up Saturday morning to a flooded bathroom. It couldn't have happened on a worse day.
0:26:59 > 0:27:02"20 girls were on their way for my daughter's tenth birthday party.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04"I called Benjamin Franklin, the Punctual Plumber,
0:27:04 > 0:27:07"and with their 24/7, 365 days-a-year service,
0:27:07 > 0:27:10"a skilled and courteous professional was at my door in no time."
0:27:10 > 0:27:12It's definitely a challenge fitting stuff into 30 seconds.
0:27:12 > 0:27:14But I think it was important for us
0:27:14 > 0:27:17to include a lot of the points the executives had brought up.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20- Ding!- He gave me straightforward pricing, fixed the leak,
0:27:20 > 0:27:22and guaranteed his work for two years.
0:27:22 > 0:27:25Oh! The birthday party was a huge success thanks to Benjamin Franklin.
0:27:25 > 0:27:26I found a plumber for life.
0:27:26 > 0:27:29OK, you're at 40 seconds. That's pushing it.
0:27:29 > 0:27:30- It's still long, right?- Yeah.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32Yeah, I think it's too much information.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36I think the more that we can give people about what makes them different is perfect.
0:27:36 > 0:27:39Yeah, I just wonder whether it's a little bit rushed.
0:27:39 > 0:27:42And I don't... It doesn't really sink in.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44I personally don't think so.
0:27:44 > 0:27:47That's the kind of pace that we want. And it's straightforward.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49'I think that we were copy heavy.
0:27:49 > 0:27:52'I think that we tried to fit in too much information.'
0:27:52 > 0:27:54Now, I get it - you're paying for 30 seconds,
0:27:54 > 0:27:56you want to utilise every last second.
0:27:56 > 0:27:59But, you need to understand the gist of what's being spoken,
0:27:59 > 0:28:02not all just blurt it out in a couple of seconds.
0:28:02 > 0:28:04You don't have to say "the Punctual Plumber."
0:28:04 > 0:28:08It's OK. I'll just have to be fast.
0:28:10 > 0:28:12# You're afraid of the dark
0:28:12 > 0:28:15# I will give you a spark
0:28:15 > 0:28:19# That's why I'm Mister Sparky
0:28:19 > 0:28:22# Mister Sparky
0:28:22 > 0:28:25# Mister Sparky to the rescue. #
0:28:25 > 0:28:28'When I'm working creatively, I'm either listening to music
0:28:28 > 0:28:32'or humming the thought process out.'
0:28:32 > 0:28:36So, I was listening to every idea that was getting thrown out,
0:28:36 > 0:28:39and then I was repeating it back with some kind of tone to it.
0:28:39 > 0:28:43# Won't you give me a spark Mister Sparky?
0:28:43 > 0:28:45# I'm all alone tonight. #
0:28:45 > 0:28:46Never happen.
0:28:46 > 0:28:49OK, all right.
0:28:50 > 0:28:52We've got to be simplistic.
0:28:52 > 0:28:54We're getting too "Ah-ah-ah!"
0:28:54 > 0:28:57Maria is literally living out a musical.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59I feel like I've fallen into a bad musical right now.
0:28:59 > 0:29:03She is singing out everything. And I'm like, "Seriously?"
0:29:03 > 0:29:07Sharon and me look at each other we're like, "We need a break. You got to stop, now."
0:29:07 > 0:29:09I don't think we want everything to be 1930s.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12# That's when he gave me a price
0:29:12 > 0:29:16# Please fix my lights, Mister Sparky. #
0:29:16 > 0:29:19That's Maria. It's like I keep saying, you know, Maria,
0:29:19 > 0:29:20you tell her to shut up.
0:29:20 > 0:29:22It's like, she's waterproof.
0:29:22 > 0:29:25Maria is waterproof. It doesn't penetrate.
0:29:25 > 0:29:28She's like, "Oh, yeah... Aaah!" Back again.
0:29:28 > 0:29:30I think we're going to lose it. I think we will,
0:29:30 > 0:29:33they'll be like, "What time zone are they living in?" We could be like...
0:29:33 > 0:29:35HE IMITATES A HIGH HAT
0:29:35 > 0:29:38# 88, 88, Sparky. #
0:29:38 > 0:29:40# 88, 88, Sparky... #
0:29:40 > 0:29:42Maria!
0:29:45 > 0:29:47All right, ready?
0:29:47 > 0:29:49Mister Sparky...
0:29:49 > 0:29:52Hey, Jen, how is that gorgeous new ceiling fan look in your den?
0:29:52 > 0:29:54- It's not up yet. - You bought it a month ago.
0:29:54 > 0:29:56Harold insists on installing it himself.
0:29:56 > 0:29:59So we're being judged on originality, brand integration,
0:29:59 > 0:30:02and the overall performance of the 30-second spot.
0:30:02 > 0:30:05# We're on time, you will see or the repair is free. #
0:30:05 > 0:30:07Call eight, eight, eight, eight, Sparky.
0:30:07 > 0:30:10Straightforward. Typical.
0:30:10 > 0:30:12Our scenarios right now are really vanilla.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15- Yeah.- We already realise that they're not that original.
0:30:15 > 0:30:17- Yeah.- So how would we make it more original?
0:30:17 > 0:30:20I guess the way to think more out of the box would be, is to say,
0:30:20 > 0:30:23"What's a situation that you've been caught in before
0:30:23 > 0:30:25"that would be really embarrassing?"
0:30:25 > 0:30:27I think that we should probably be
0:30:27 > 0:30:30pushing the envelope a little bit more, being a bit more daring.
0:30:30 > 0:30:32I mean, that's why this company's come to Celebrity Apprentice,
0:30:32 > 0:30:35to try and get a bunch of celebrities to be really creative.
0:30:35 > 0:30:37So, I think we could be a bit more edgy.
0:30:37 > 0:30:39See, from a guy's perspective,
0:30:39 > 0:30:43you're first thought of a plumber going around to your wife's house
0:30:43 > 0:30:46when you're not around, is that he's not just fixing the pipes.
0:30:46 > 0:30:48- Yeah.- That's always a joke, right?
0:30:48 > 0:30:51It's like, "The kid doesn't look anything like you. What's...?"
0:30:51 > 0:30:56- Like the pool boy?- You know, like, "What's going on with... The electrician's got brown eyes."
0:30:56 > 0:30:58Well, I have to tell you, the first thing I thought of
0:30:58 > 0:31:02was how my husband clogs the toilet on a regular.
0:31:02 > 0:31:03HE LAUGHS
0:31:03 > 0:31:07- I just don't feel like they're going to think it's funny.- Yeah.
0:31:07 > 0:31:09- They said no... - They sorted out our house's pipes.
0:31:09 > 0:31:12- I wish they could sort out Johnny's pipes.- Yeah.
0:31:12 > 0:31:13HE LAUGHS
0:31:13 > 0:31:16- That is not going to work. - That is not going to work.
0:31:16 > 0:31:19- A lot of things came to my mind, but...- Yeah.
0:31:19 > 0:31:21I don't know, I think we're probably good.
0:31:21 > 0:31:23Better off being safe, but that's a call you have to make.
0:31:23 > 0:31:27Cos at the moment it's just, like, the most obvious route to market, right?
0:31:27 > 0:31:30And bland. And not funny.
0:31:30 > 0:31:32Well, do you want to take a vote?
0:31:32 > 0:31:34I mean, do we make it edgier?
0:31:37 > 0:31:39I'm wondering, these things are so subjective.
0:31:39 > 0:31:43So I'm like, originality versus core messaging.
0:31:43 > 0:31:46You know what? I think starting out with this straightforward
0:31:46 > 0:31:47and to the point is better.
0:31:47 > 0:31:49The safe is better. I think it is.
0:31:49 > 0:31:51'You know what?'
0:31:51 > 0:31:54I just have to stick with my decision. And my gut tells me
0:31:54 > 0:31:56that conservative is what the executives want.
0:31:56 > 0:32:00We're the safer group. They're probably doing something more outrageous and original.
0:32:00 > 0:32:04'Oh, my God, these women were just, you know, very serious.'
0:32:04 > 0:32:07Who the hell wants to live in that conservative environment?
0:32:07 > 0:32:10It's so uncreative, it's not funny.
0:32:10 > 0:32:13I was on the Girls Want To Have No Fun At All Team.
0:32:13 > 0:32:15Are we having any fun yet?
0:32:15 > 0:32:17HE LAUGHS
0:32:17 > 0:32:18Wah-wah...
0:32:30 > 0:32:33# Three, three, three Call 88, 88
0:32:33 > 0:32:36# Cos we are never late. #
0:32:36 > 0:32:41OK. I just, I want...I want to do it as cool as we can.
0:32:41 > 0:32:43And we've got to be straight.
0:32:43 > 0:32:46But, let's not go all the way into the makes-me-nauseous world.
0:32:46 > 0:32:49You know? You know, you have that cheese factor?
0:32:49 > 0:32:51- Yeah, yeah, yeah.- All right.
0:32:51 > 0:32:53'Now that we have the creative almost dialled in,'
0:32:53 > 0:32:55Cyndi will play a very important role
0:32:55 > 0:32:57when it comes to working with the band.
0:32:57 > 0:32:58Can I work with you?
0:32:58 > 0:33:00'I would have been in over my head
0:33:00 > 0:33:03'trying to put together music and bands.
0:33:03 > 0:33:06'It was really great to watch her work.'
0:33:06 > 0:33:09# For One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning
0:33:09 > 0:33:13# Call eight, eight, eight Three, three, three... #
0:33:13 > 0:33:16'I was horrified I was writing jingles.'
0:33:16 > 0:33:18Especially when I started
0:33:18 > 0:33:21doing the One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning.
0:33:21 > 0:33:23And I thought, "Oh, my God."
0:33:23 > 0:33:27# Call eight, eight, eight Three, three, three
0:33:27 > 0:33:30# 88, 88, cos we are never late. #
0:33:30 > 0:33:32Yeah.
0:33:32 > 0:33:34But, really, it's catchy.
0:33:34 > 0:33:37Cyndi, you sound awesome. You guys all sound awesome.
0:33:37 > 0:33:39OK, but we've got get that revolution song.
0:33:39 > 0:33:41- You going to sing the lead? - Yeah. I'll just sing the lead.
0:33:41 > 0:33:45- Yeah, cos I can hear Donald going, "How do you not sing the lead?" - I know, I know.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47- "You won this many Grammys..." - I know, I know, I know.
0:33:47 > 0:33:50Do you like it? Or do you like it the way it was?
0:33:50 > 0:33:53I like it. It's good, it's good. We've got to get this right.
0:33:53 > 0:33:56'I really like Cyndi. And everything that she does, I think it's gorgeous.'
0:33:56 > 0:33:59She brings great creative energy and passion.
0:33:59 > 0:34:01I think you've got shut the click off. Let's play it. You guys...
0:34:01 > 0:34:05And, you know, watching her bossing around the vocalists,
0:34:05 > 0:34:07and bossing around the sound mixer, I think it's great.
0:34:07 > 0:34:11# Three, three, three 88, 88 cos we are never late. #
0:34:11 > 0:34:13Done. Next.
0:34:13 > 0:34:16Just have to hear it. We've got the track, we'll be OK.
0:34:16 > 0:34:18# Ben, Ben, Ben
0:34:18 > 0:34:20# Ben, Ben, Ben
0:34:20 > 0:34:23# Ben, Ben, Ben
0:34:23 > 0:34:25# Ben, Ben, Ben
0:34:25 > 0:34:29# Ben, Ben, Benjamin Franklin The Punctual Plumber. #
0:34:29 > 0:34:30THEY LAUGH
0:34:30 > 0:34:33# Ben, Ben, Benjamin Franklin The Punctual Plumber. #
0:34:33 > 0:34:36All right. That was really good.
0:34:36 > 0:34:38Hold on one second.
0:34:38 > 0:34:40- Hi.- Hello, Ivanka, how are you doing?
0:34:40 > 0:34:42- Good, how's it going?- Come on in and join us. You want to sing?
0:34:42 > 0:34:46- I do not.- I think you would do well. - And no. It's not that I don't want to sing,
0:34:46 > 0:34:48it's that none of you guys want to hear me sing.
0:34:48 > 0:34:52What if you just went in there and belted it out? You're like, "Waaa." You just...
0:34:52 > 0:34:54- So how you guys feeling? - Good.
0:34:54 > 0:34:56- It's nice to lose and still all be here, right?- It's great.
0:34:56 > 0:34:58It's like a second lease on life, I'm sure.
0:34:58 > 0:35:00For me, it's awesome.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02We, uh, we're giving Mister Sparky a whole new life right now.
0:35:02 > 0:35:06- Yeah.- Mister Sparky, just they start out, "88, 88, Sparky..."
0:35:06 > 0:35:08So you hear a big band feel, right?
0:35:08 > 0:35:09Are you singing, or are...?
0:35:09 > 0:35:12- No, they're singing for now. - He's doing the voiceover.
0:35:12 > 0:35:15And then, I do the voiceovers to bring it all back in
0:35:15 > 0:35:17to make sure we actually get what they want across.
0:35:17 > 0:35:20But, it's one of those hooks that drives you crazy.
0:35:20 > 0:35:24And the other one is, "Hi, I'm Ben, the Punctual Plumber from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing.
0:35:24 > 0:35:27"We plumbers know people CRACK a lot of jokes at our expense."
0:35:27 > 0:35:29Let me guess, that's a play.
0:35:29 > 0:35:31No!
0:35:31 > 0:35:32- No!- A minor.- No.
0:35:32 > 0:35:36- Minor.- They did not, here's what... - They didn't want that sort of thing.
0:35:36 > 0:35:40They told you specifically they don't want jokes made at their expense.
0:35:40 > 0:35:41You know, it's a bit of a risk.
0:35:41 > 0:35:44'They're fully aware of the fact that the executives do not want them
0:35:44 > 0:35:46'making stereotypical jokes about plumbers.
0:35:46 > 0:35:52'And yet, they chose to integrate the word "crack" into their jingle.'
0:35:52 > 0:35:56So, you know. I don't know that I would have made that same decision.
0:35:56 > 0:35:57He's definitely taking a risk.
0:35:57 > 0:36:00"We plumbers know you crack a lot of jokes at our expense."
0:36:00 > 0:36:02- I won't emphasise crack.- No.
0:36:05 > 0:36:08"I called Benjamin Franklin, the Punctual Plumber.
0:36:08 > 0:36:11"He showed up on time, was clean, friendly, courteous and a total gentleman."
0:36:11 > 0:36:12Team Tenacity.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15Hi! How are you?
0:36:15 > 0:36:19- Doing well. How are you? Summer, as project leader, how's it going? - This team is unbelievable.
0:36:19 > 0:36:23'Eric came in to take a look at us, being that he's the eyes and ears.'
0:36:23 > 0:36:27And he came in at a great time, cos the singers were there and the band was there.
0:36:27 > 0:36:29So, he got a chance to see what we were doing.
0:36:29 > 0:36:31What are you guys doing on the creative side?
0:36:31 > 0:36:34We got a sense from them that the company is very wholesome.
0:36:34 > 0:36:36We asked them if they're into funny.
0:36:36 > 0:36:39And they kind of gave us a, "Mmm, not so funny."
0:36:40 > 0:36:43But how do you create something that they remember?
0:36:43 > 0:36:47We need the jingle to be catchy and short, and that people can remember.
0:36:47 > 0:36:50- What's the jingle? Can I hear? - You want to hear it?
0:36:50 > 0:36:52- Yeah, I want to hear it. - Let's play it.
0:36:52 > 0:36:53All right. From the top.
0:36:55 > 0:37:00# Any delay, it's you we pay Call eight, seven, seven, Ben
0:37:00 > 0:37:02# 70, 76. #
0:37:02 > 0:37:06- Are your other ones similar?- No. The other one's completely different.- Completely different.
0:37:06 > 0:37:08- You want to hear that?- Sure. Let me hear one more.
0:37:08 > 0:37:09Play the... Yeah, One Hour.
0:37:09 > 0:37:11- Here's playback.- OK.
0:37:11 > 0:37:14# One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning,
0:37:14 > 0:37:17# Call eight, eight, eight Three, three, three... #
0:37:17 > 0:37:20'Looking at Tenacity, I think they were doing a great job.'
0:37:20 > 0:37:23I think they came up with a good beat. I think it sounded good.
0:37:23 > 0:37:27'Is it something that would separate itself from any of the other commercials you hear every morning?
0:37:27 > 0:37:29'I don't know if it does.'
0:37:29 > 0:37:32I think they did sound a little bit generic.
0:37:32 > 0:37:33# ..We're never late. #
0:37:33 > 0:37:35Very interesting.
0:37:44 > 0:37:47Let me, let me order some food here in a minute.
0:37:47 > 0:37:49Everybody's got pizza out there.
0:37:49 > 0:37:50Can you steal me a slice of pizza?
0:37:50 > 0:37:51- Yes.- Thank you.
0:38:02 > 0:38:04You don't see nothing!
0:38:04 > 0:38:07'So, I go and I steal a piece of pizza for Bret.
0:38:07 > 0:38:08'And Curtis, he's just...'
0:38:08 > 0:38:11"I'm Australian. And I'm the greatest.
0:38:11 > 0:38:14"And I ordered pizza for just my crew. And..."
0:38:14 > 0:38:17Come on! Don't you care about this man's feelings?
0:38:17 > 0:38:19Like, you know, what if he passes out?
0:38:19 > 0:38:21- Curtis is so mad right now.- No.
0:38:21 > 0:38:22For real.
0:38:22 > 0:38:24- Oh, is he puffy-chested?- Uh-huh.
0:38:24 > 0:38:26Oh, dear. Get a life.
0:38:26 > 0:38:27Curtis...
0:38:27 > 0:38:29SHE SIGHS
0:38:29 > 0:38:32You know, a 33-year-old young guy,
0:38:32 > 0:38:35thinks he's so...hot.
0:38:35 > 0:38:37Um, that's a put-off for me.
0:38:37 > 0:38:39And it's like, "God bless you, kid.
0:38:39 > 0:38:42"But I...I've got nothing to say to you."
0:38:42 > 0:38:45- That ad will have a chef's hat. - Of course it will.
0:38:45 > 0:38:48There'll be something about an apron in there, or a frying pan.
0:38:48 > 0:38:49HE LAUGHS
0:38:49 > 0:38:51Mr Pastry has his way.
0:38:51 > 0:38:53Oh, you're killing me!
0:38:53 > 0:38:54THEY LAUGH
0:38:54 > 0:38:56All right, let me know when you're ready.
0:38:56 > 0:38:58OK. One, two.
0:38:58 > 0:39:01One, two. Can you turn me up? One, two.
0:39:01 > 0:39:04What is it again? Um, for uh...
0:39:04 > 0:39:08# For One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning, call one... #
0:39:08 > 0:39:10Oh, excuse me.
0:39:10 > 0:39:13# For One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning
0:39:13 > 0:39:16# Call one, eight, eight, three... #
0:39:16 > 0:39:18All right. OK. OK.
0:39:18 > 0:39:20# 88, 88... #
0:39:20 > 0:39:23- OK, I'm going to- BLEEP- it up again, and I'm distorting.
0:39:25 > 0:39:28Let me just listen to that. My voice is killing me.
0:39:28 > 0:39:30Nina, can you sing that better than me?
0:39:30 > 0:39:32You have some top end left.
0:39:32 > 0:39:34I have no upper partials at all.
0:39:34 > 0:39:37- OK.- So...- I'll give it, I'll give it, I'll give it a roll.
0:39:37 > 0:39:38'I couldn't sing.'
0:39:38 > 0:39:41My voice was killing me.
0:39:41 > 0:39:43So, I let one of the singers sing for me.
0:39:43 > 0:39:46What do you mean? I'm not going to perform? I don't have a voice.
0:39:46 > 0:39:48It was a really hard position for me
0:39:48 > 0:39:50being the leader of this task.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53And, I didn't want to put Cyndi in an uncomfortable position
0:39:53 > 0:39:54if she wasn't 100%.
0:39:54 > 0:39:58If anything and you need the extra voice in the backgrounds, I can sing backgrounds.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00I was very concerned,
0:40:00 > 0:40:02because I felt, is Trump going to say,
0:40:02 > 0:40:05"Why in the world didn't you use Cyndi Lauper when you have her on your team?"
0:40:05 > 0:40:07I'm so stressed right now.
0:40:08 > 0:40:10Here's our thoughts -
0:40:10 > 0:40:12we're doing a little Brick House meets a little Jovi.
0:40:12 > 0:40:15Know what I mean, in our whole ad. Let's do it. It starts out with the phone call.
0:40:15 > 0:40:17TELEPHONE RINGS
0:40:17 > 0:40:19MUSIC PLAYS
0:40:19 > 0:40:21I want to make One Hour Air Conditioning And Heating
0:40:21 > 0:40:24very funky, very cool, very memorable.
0:40:24 > 0:40:26It's also the one that is, without a doubt,
0:40:26 > 0:40:29um...the most liberal commercial we got going.
0:40:29 > 0:40:31All right, here we go.
0:40:31 > 0:40:33MUSIC PLAYS
0:40:33 > 0:40:36# Air conditioning's out I'm feeling hot and sticky...
0:40:36 > 0:40:39# No worries, One Hour Will be there quickly
0:40:39 > 0:40:41# Can I rely on you To cool me down on time? #
0:40:41 > 0:40:46We came up with just the best music ever. '70s porn music.
0:40:46 > 0:40:50One Hour's got the power to safely and effectively handle all your heating and air conditioning needs.
0:40:50 > 0:40:53And mixed it with a very good infomercial.
0:40:53 > 0:40:55I can't think of a better way to sell heating and air conditioning.
0:40:55 > 0:40:59Boom! Yes, I needed that ending.
0:40:59 > 0:41:00Thank you, thank you.
0:41:00 > 0:41:03I'm just worried that it's going... I don't know, maybe...
0:41:03 > 0:41:06I know, I'm worried that it's going to be a bit patchworky.
0:41:06 > 0:41:09The music and the bass I'm keeping is very simplistic,
0:41:09 > 0:41:11cos we've got to do this live.
0:41:11 > 0:41:13Otherwise, this whole thing's a disaster.
0:41:13 > 0:41:16That's why if you understand why I'm keeping everything linear and box.
0:41:16 > 0:41:18I normally wouldn't do this.
0:41:18 > 0:41:21I mean, who literally does a live ad?
0:41:29 > 0:41:31SHE HUMS
0:41:31 > 0:41:33Um... What's the order of presentation?
0:41:33 > 0:41:36That's all determined by us, I believe.
0:41:36 > 0:41:40Today is the morning of our presentation to the two executives.
0:41:40 > 0:41:44We have three 30-second live feed commercials spots.
0:41:44 > 0:41:47'We need to deliver it to time, exactly 30 seconds,
0:41:47 > 0:41:49'and everybody needs to be spot on.'
0:41:49 > 0:41:51SHE HUMS
0:41:55 > 0:41:58So, Curtis, does Bret do this kind of warm up before his singing?
0:41:58 > 0:42:01Um... Not really.
0:42:01 > 0:42:04I don't know how Cyndi warms up her voice.
0:42:04 > 0:42:06I think it had something to do with...
0:42:06 > 0:42:08HE HUMS
0:42:08 > 0:42:09HE LAUGHS
0:42:09 > 0:42:11Something to do with biting her finger and warming her...
0:42:11 > 0:42:13I mean, I don't get it.
0:42:13 > 0:42:15SHE HUMS
0:42:15 > 0:42:18So Cyndi is going to attempt to sing
0:42:18 > 0:42:20uh...what the girl sang yesterday.
0:42:20 > 0:42:22We're going to give it a shot.
0:42:22 > 0:42:24I couldn't figure out why you were warming up.
0:42:24 > 0:42:28'So this morning, Cyndi has decided that maybe she'd like to try
0:42:28 > 0:42:30'to sing on one of the jingles.'
0:42:30 > 0:42:32I mean, she's the one who came up with the jingle,
0:42:32 > 0:42:33but still, in the back of my mind,
0:42:33 > 0:42:35I wanted to make sure that it sounded right.
0:42:35 > 0:42:38- What we're being judged on...- Uh-huh. - ..it's all about live performance.
0:42:38 > 0:42:40- Yeah.- So...
0:42:40 > 0:42:43No, I can do live performances, cos I do it for a living.
0:42:43 > 0:42:44Sorry.
0:42:44 > 0:42:47They were worried cos I had laryngitis,
0:42:47 > 0:42:51but I went back and I slept, and I did steam on my voice.
0:42:51 > 0:42:55And then I, um... I did some vocal exercises,
0:42:55 > 0:42:57but I really need to try to fix this.
0:42:57 > 0:43:01You can... It's doing that live, it's like almost impossible.
0:43:01 > 0:43:02I'm kind of worried.
0:43:02 > 0:43:04SHE HUMS
0:43:07 > 0:43:09I'm in full get-it-done mode.
0:43:09 > 0:43:11# 88, 88, Sparky
0:43:11 > 0:43:13# 88, 88, Sparky
0:43:13 > 0:43:15# On a cool dark night... #
0:43:15 > 0:43:17'Today, Maria, Sharon, and I hit the ground running,'
0:43:17 > 0:43:19and they could see I had my game face on.
0:43:19 > 0:43:22They knew I was there to have fun, but I needed to get it done today.
0:43:22 > 0:43:24Which one do you want to start with?
0:43:24 > 0:43:26# 88, 88, Sparky... #
0:43:26 > 0:43:28- Uh-huh.- And then, when we...the porn one is not as bad
0:43:28 > 0:43:30as we thought it was.
0:43:30 > 0:43:32I love it, man. I think it's funny.
0:43:32 > 0:43:35Listen, like I said, I go on the sword on that one.
0:43:35 > 0:43:37I fully understand your concerns.
0:43:39 > 0:43:42'Sharon was, uh...pretty reluctant about the '70s porn
0:43:42 > 0:43:44'One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning.'
0:43:44 > 0:43:46She knew I was really pushing the envelope.
0:43:46 > 0:43:48These have attitude.
0:43:48 > 0:43:53Without an attitude, and no cojones, what do you got?
0:43:53 > 0:43:55Sharon, this is me reeling myself in.
0:43:55 > 0:43:58Because if it was me, I'd have had it even...go with me.
0:43:58 > 0:44:01You help me, or otherwise I'd have been like,
0:44:01 > 0:44:02"Oh, yeah, baby, you've got Sparky..."
0:44:02 > 0:44:04HE LAUGHS
0:44:04 > 0:44:07Oh, yeah, I'm going to put my plunger up your pipes.
0:44:07 > 0:44:09Let's go out big.
0:44:12 > 0:44:14Do what your gut tells you.
0:44:14 > 0:44:18And then, you go out the way you want to go out.
0:44:18 > 0:44:21Exactly. I'm bringing my A-game.
0:44:24 > 0:44:26Cyndi, which ones were you wanting to sing on?
0:44:26 > 0:44:28- The um...- One hour? - The One Hour.
0:44:28 > 0:44:31- OK.- You want to take this moment and...- Yeah, thank you.
0:44:31 > 0:44:33So right now I'm just...
0:44:39 > 0:44:41I don't think her, um...voice
0:44:41 > 0:44:44is mainstream enough for this type of thing.
0:44:44 > 0:44:46Check, check, check, check. Yeah.
0:44:46 > 0:44:48I'm a little nervous about Cyndi singing live,
0:44:48 > 0:44:53because I don't know if she's going to be able to nail it.
0:44:53 > 0:44:55All of our voices are a little rusty,
0:44:55 > 0:44:56so I think it's important
0:44:56 > 0:44:59to let the professionals that do this every single day,
0:44:59 > 0:45:00just do their thing.
0:45:01 > 0:45:02The best in the business.
0:45:02 > 0:45:05# For One Hour Heating and Air Conditioning call... #
0:45:05 > 0:45:09- CYNDI:- Wait, stop. Just let me hear that again, the guy.
0:45:09 > 0:45:11And the technicians? The best in the business.
0:45:11 > 0:45:13# For One Hour Heating and Air Con... #
0:45:14 > 0:45:17I think. I...
0:45:23 > 0:45:27In my opinion, if you do use her and she doesn't sound so great,
0:45:27 > 0:45:30then you won't hear that perfect vocal that your other girl gave you.
0:45:30 > 0:45:34- I agree, but it's a tough one. - This is your deal.
0:45:34 > 0:45:37The One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning spot was the one
0:45:37 > 0:45:38I was the most concerned about.
0:45:38 > 0:45:42That was the one where Cyndi decided to sing live at the last minute.
0:45:42 > 0:45:44And I was just nervous about her coming in on her cue.
0:45:44 > 0:45:48If I were project manager, I would have quickly put the kibosh on that.
0:45:48 > 0:45:50Again, just that one part.
0:45:50 > 0:45:52Let's just do the music.
0:45:52 > 0:45:54'I decided to sing because I was'
0:45:54 > 0:45:56in a better voice, not great voice,
0:45:56 > 0:45:57but better voice.
0:45:57 > 0:46:00And I felt that the sound of my voice
0:46:00 > 0:46:04would add character to the jingle.
0:46:04 > 0:46:05It's going to be a lot of fun.
0:46:05 > 0:46:08I just don't want them to say, "Why didn't you sing?
0:46:08 > 0:46:10- "Blah blah blah."- I understand.
0:46:10 > 0:46:14- But I think we need to take the boardroom out of it.- I am.
0:46:14 > 0:46:17My feeling is that we're working with professionals
0:46:17 > 0:46:20who did this yesterday, who had the script practised all night long.
0:46:20 > 0:46:23I would prefer to just let them go for it.
0:46:23 > 0:46:25No, it's fine. I mean, I know the part.
0:46:27 > 0:46:30'Summer and Holly were both very nervous about Cyndi singing live.
0:46:30 > 0:46:33'They came to the conclusion that she shouldn't sing the lead.
0:46:33 > 0:46:34'And I said, "It's a mistake."'
0:46:34 > 0:46:35It's Cyndi Lauper.
0:46:35 > 0:46:38You can't give up on that voice. You've got to use her.
0:46:38 > 0:46:39'It's crazy not to.'
0:46:39 > 0:46:41I think I should sing the lead.
0:46:41 > 0:46:42We'll see.
0:46:52 > 0:46:53Have a seat.
0:46:53 > 0:46:56How are you guys doing today?
0:46:56 > 0:46:58Looking forward to hearing the commercials.
0:47:00 > 0:47:02# Ben, Ben, Ben
0:47:02 > 0:47:05- # Oh, ah... - 88-88 Sparky. #
0:47:05 > 0:47:08All right, we're ready with the Mister Sparky.
0:47:08 > 0:47:11All set, Bret? Kelly, you all set upstairs?
0:47:11 > 0:47:13- Sure.- We're on. - Let's rock it.
0:47:13 > 0:47:17We're performing three live 30-second spots
0:47:17 > 0:47:19for executives in another room.
0:47:19 > 0:47:21I feel like I'm in the movie Seabiscuit. You know what I mean?
0:47:21 > 0:47:24Like we're making walking sounds while we're singing.
0:47:24 > 0:47:27It's so old school, but it's actually kind of fun.
0:47:27 > 0:47:29We're ready. OK, everybody, here we go.
0:47:29 > 0:47:31Firstly, I want to wish a very good morning to our Clockwork
0:47:31 > 0:47:33executives, Jim Abrams and John Young.

0:48:20 > 0:48:22'I hated the live feed.'
0:48:22 > 0:48:24I'm a performer.
0:48:24 > 0:48:26I need to see faces and eyes.
0:48:26 > 0:48:29This live performance bit, it's like, "What did they think?
0:48:29 > 0:48:32"Oh, we don't know. We don't see their faces. Awesome."
0:48:32 > 0:48:34So we won't know until we get in the boardroom.
0:48:34 > 0:48:37- Guys, we're on for number two. - We're on for number two.
0:48:37 > 0:48:39All right. For Jim and for John, here we go.

0:49:26 > 0:49:29Our third and final spot is for Benjamin Franklin,
0:49:29 > 0:49:30The Punctual Plumber.
0:49:30 > 0:49:32- Here we go.- All right. Here it comes.
0:49:32 > 0:49:34One, two, three, four...
0:49:34 > 0:49:36# Ben, Ben, Ben. #
0:49:36 > 0:49:40Hi, I'm Ben, the Punctual Plumber from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing.
0:49:40 > 0:49:43We plumbers know people crack a lot of jokes at our expense.
0:49:43 > 0:49:46But we at Benjamin Franklin Plumbing take our job very seriously.

0:50:04 > 0:50:06If there's any delay, it's you we pay.
0:50:08 > 0:50:09Nice job, man.
0:50:09 > 0:50:12Oh, those definitely had some originality.
0:50:12 > 0:50:15If nothing else we need to hire Bret Michaels as a salesperson,
0:50:15 > 0:50:17with the introduction there.
0:50:17 > 0:50:19He's definitely passionate about this.
0:50:19 > 0:50:22- What did you think of the humour? - We asked them to stay away from that
0:50:22 > 0:50:24so that was a disappointment.
0:50:24 > 0:50:27I think that time could have been used better to talk
0:50:27 > 0:50:28- about something else.- Right.
0:50:29 > 0:50:33'I'm very nervous about this, only because of the client.'
0:50:33 > 0:50:37I think that they will not get what we've delivered to them.
0:50:37 > 0:50:40It is what it is. We've got what we got.
0:50:40 > 0:50:43He told us he was going to take it to the edge and come back.
0:50:43 > 0:50:46- Perhaps he should have come back a step further.- Yeah.
0:50:46 > 0:50:49OK, let's hear Tenacity's commercials.
0:50:50 > 0:50:54- Hi, guys.- Hey. Welcome back.
0:50:54 > 0:50:56So everybody's going to be in this booth.
0:50:56 > 0:50:58'Just before our live performances,'
0:50:58 > 0:51:01I got this huge wave of anxiety. I got really nervous.
0:51:01 > 0:51:06'Because I realised we get one shot at this. It's a live performance.'
0:51:06 > 0:51:09If any of them mess up, it's the difference between winning and losing.
0:51:09 > 0:51:11- We're ready to go.- Ready to go?
0:51:11 > 0:51:13- Listen to me.- Yeah.
0:51:13 > 0:51:17My voice just plain and simple has a little more character,
0:51:17 > 0:51:19and I think it sounds better in the lead.
0:51:19 > 0:51:23'The only concern I had with Cyndi singing was she might not be 100%.'
0:51:23 > 0:51:26I was back and forth, I did not know what to do.
0:51:26 > 0:51:30And in the end, I just remember thinking, "It's Cyndi Lauper."
0:51:30 > 0:51:32You know? "If she's OK, have her sing it."
0:51:32 > 0:51:35- We're about to go, we got our cue. - Tell everybody to focus.
0:51:35 > 0:51:37We're on standby.
0:51:37 > 0:51:40One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning,
0:51:40 > 0:51:41how can we save you time?
0:51:41 > 0:51:44My wife usually takes care of this stuff. Our heater broke.
0:51:44 > 0:51:47She says you won't make me wait around all day for my appointment.
0:51:47 > 0:51:48Absolutely right. We guarantee a window.
0:51:48 > 0:51:50We are always on time or you don't pay a dime.
0:51:50 > 0:51:52With service like that, what does it cost me?
0:51:52 > 0:51:56We give you straightforward pricing. Give us the go-ahead and all our work
0:51:56 > 0:51:58- and products are guaranteed. - And the technicians?
0:51:58 > 0:52:01- The best in the business. - # One Hour Heating and Air Conditioning

0:52:10 > 0:52:13Woo, you guys did such a good job!
0:52:13 > 0:52:16You're always thinking in the back of your mind, "I hope the first one
0:52:16 > 0:52:18"goes smooth, cos otherwise we're in major trouble."
0:52:18 > 0:52:21'But we've got three of these to get through.'
0:52:21 > 0:52:23We need to do a really good job on all three.
0:52:23 > 0:52:25Ready to go?
0:52:25 > 0:52:26We're on, guys.
0:52:26 > 0:52:28Here it comes.
0:52:28 > 0:52:30As a busy mom, my schedule is packed.
0:52:30 > 0:52:32Between school drop off, work and soccer practice,
0:52:32 > 0:52:35I don't have time to wait for my plumbing appointment.
0:52:35 > 0:52:38My time is important. And Benjamin Franklin, The Punctual Plumber,
0:52:38 > 0:52:40understands that. In fact, they guarantee it.
0:52:40 > 0:52:43If they're running behind, they'll pay 5 for every minute

0:52:58 > 0:53:00That's it. Better.
0:53:00 > 0:53:04- We're all done, well done. - That was really, really good.
0:53:04 > 0:53:05Mister Sparky is next.
0:53:05 > 0:53:07Stand by.
0:53:07 > 0:53:09- Ready?- Here it comes.
0:53:11 > 0:53:13Hey, how's that new ceiling fan look in your den?
0:53:13 > 0:53:15- It's not up yet. - You bought it a month ago.
0:53:15 > 0:53:17Harold insists on installing it himself.
0:53:17 > 0:53:20He doesn't want to wait for a messy electrician with many hidden costs.
0:53:20 > 0:53:23The last thing Harold installed blacked out the entire block.
0:53:23 > 0:53:26Look, call Mister Sparky, America's On-Time Electrician.
0:53:26 > 0:53:28They're clean, courteous and no surprises at bill time.
0:53:28 > 0:53:31Now that's a Mister Sparky promise even Harold will love.
0:53:31 > 0:53:33Just call 88-88 Sparky.

0:53:41 > 0:53:44- We're out.- Fantastic.
0:53:44 > 0:53:45Woo!
0:53:45 > 0:53:47That was fantastic.
0:53:47 > 0:53:50Mister Sparky.
0:53:50 > 0:53:54'So after our three spots, there was a huge sense of relief.'
0:53:54 > 0:53:59I feel really confident that we put on three great live commercials.
0:53:59 > 0:54:00It's out of my hands
0:54:00 > 0:54:03as to whether or not it's what the executives wanted.
0:54:03 > 0:54:04But I know we did a good job.
0:54:04 > 0:54:08Well, now that we've heard all three, what did you think?
0:54:08 > 0:54:10Well, as far as originality goes,
0:54:10 > 0:54:13I did like when the husband was talking about his wife.
0:54:13 > 0:54:16- That's a little bit different. - I think it went kind of fast.
0:54:16 > 0:54:19I guess 30 seconds is difficult to get that much information in.
0:54:19 > 0:54:22Interesting. Definitely covered all bases there, I think.
0:54:22 > 0:54:25They also used some humour in there, which I always think is a challenge.
0:54:25 > 0:54:27But I think they pulled it off on that one.
0:54:27 > 0:54:30So that was good. Well, we've got a lot to think about.
0:54:30 > 0:54:32- Shall we go talk to Mr Trump? - Let's go.
0:55:04 > 0:55:06So, Eric, did you enjoy it?
0:55:06 > 0:55:09I have. I loved it. Interesting. Very interesting.
0:55:09 > 0:55:12- But it's been a lot of fun. - Good. Bret, how did you do?
0:55:12 > 0:55:14- I think we did really well. - Why?
0:55:14 > 0:55:18We came up with a very original concept for each of the songs,
0:55:18 > 0:55:19each of the jingles.
0:55:19 > 0:55:23And we had a lot of fun doing it. And we got it done,
0:55:23 > 0:55:24and we got it done on time.
0:55:24 > 0:55:28Good. Sharon, how was Bret as the project manager?
0:55:29 > 0:55:31Bret was fantastic.
0:55:31 > 0:55:33- You believe that? - Seriously. Seriously.
0:55:33 > 0:55:36- What did you think, Maria? - I thought he was very good.
0:55:36 > 0:55:37Very good or fantastic?
0:55:37 > 0:55:41That's her word so, um, wonderful. I thought he was wonderful.
0:55:41 > 0:55:44- You thought he was good.- Yeah. - Bret, you felt comfortable?
0:55:44 > 0:55:47I did, I did. I felt comfortable in the studio.
0:55:47 > 0:55:48I liked being in the studio.
0:55:48 > 0:55:51And we just went in there and had a bazillion ideas
0:55:51 > 0:55:53and then they helped me to focus.
0:55:53 > 0:55:56They reeled it in, and all of us spit up some great ideas.
0:55:56 > 0:56:00An interesting dynamic I observed actually was Sharon reining in
0:56:00 > 0:56:02Bret a bit, which I'm sure you're used to over the years,
0:56:02 > 0:56:04reining in the rock star.
0:56:04 > 0:56:07But you were trying to make it a little more dry,
0:56:07 > 0:56:09a little bit more on point, the message.
0:56:09 > 0:56:12And maybe take a little bit of the edge out of it.
0:56:12 > 0:56:13Is that true?
0:56:13 > 0:56:17Yeah, it was interesting cos Bret has all these fantastic ideas,
0:56:17 > 0:56:20which are all doable, but we don't have the time.
0:56:20 > 0:56:24- So he does have amazing imagination. - A great imagination.
0:56:24 > 0:56:26All right, good.
0:56:26 > 0:56:27- OK. Summer?- Yes.
0:56:27 > 0:56:29- What do you think?- I love my team.
0:56:29 > 0:56:32- You think your team won? - Well, I hope our team won.
0:56:32 > 0:56:35- Did you like the end product? - I loved our end product.- Why?
0:56:35 > 0:56:38I think we listened to what the executives wanted,
0:56:38 > 0:56:40asked them great questions and from what we got back from them,
0:56:40 > 0:56:45we developed three totally original jingles and commercials.
0:56:45 > 0:56:46I thought they were great.
0:56:46 > 0:56:49- Who was your weak link? - I didn't have a weak link.
0:56:49 > 0:56:52But I had Cyndi Lauper, who knows how to...
0:56:52 > 0:56:55- And Cyndi was a strong link? - Very strong link.
0:56:55 > 0:56:57- Good. How was Holly? - Holly was amazing.
0:56:57 > 0:57:00I gave Holly one of them and she wrote the creative,
0:57:00 > 0:57:03she directed it and she was one of our stars.
0:57:03 > 0:57:06Curtis, what do you think? How did you do?
0:57:06 > 0:57:08- I think we did a good job. - You think you won, Curtis?
0:57:08 > 0:57:10- Yeah, I do. - Do you think you did a good job?
0:57:10 > 0:57:12Yeah, I do think I did a good job.
0:57:17 > 0:57:18I'm looking at Cyndi. Cyndi.
0:57:18 > 0:57:20I don't know, it was the straightest...
0:57:20 > 0:57:24They were so conservative, these guys. And can I tell you?
0:57:24 > 0:57:27- Go ahead. - Well, I said to them,
0:57:27 > 0:57:31"So how come you made a Benjamin Franklin Plumbing?"
0:57:31 > 0:57:36Cos this is a guy who, you know, discovered electricity, right?
0:57:36 > 0:57:38So, you know, with the key and everything,
0:57:38 > 0:57:40and you always see him with the kite.
0:57:40 > 0:57:42Now he's a plumber. And I asked why.
0:57:42 > 0:57:45And he said, "Because, you know, he was kind of into plumbing."
0:57:45 > 0:57:46I said, "Really? How?"
0:57:46 > 0:57:48He said, "They didn't have plumbing in those days,
0:57:48 > 0:57:51"but he took a tub with him wherever he went."
0:57:51 > 0:57:54And I said to him, "Well, you know, I saw that John Adams thing
0:57:54 > 0:57:58"on HBO, and I saw him in the tub with a lot of French women."
0:57:58 > 0:57:59But, no, I left that part out.
0:57:59 > 0:58:02I didn't tell him about the French women, but I was thinking,
0:58:02 > 0:58:06- I said, "I saw the John Adams thing."- I'm done.
0:58:06 > 0:58:07It's very funny.
0:58:07 > 0:58:10This is the Cyndi they wanted, not the quiet Cyndi.
0:58:10 > 0:58:13No, they said, "No funny stuff."
0:58:13 > 0:58:17They said, "We don't want any funny stuff about the plumbers."
0:58:18 > 0:58:22Well, Rocksolid didn't seem to pay much attention to that advice.
0:58:22 > 0:58:25Why did you use the plumber's crack joke, Bret?
0:58:25 > 0:58:27I didn't feel that we actually used it.
0:58:27 > 0:58:29I've got to stand up for Sharon and Maria.
0:58:29 > 0:58:32They both asked me not to do it. I think if you address something...
0:58:32 > 0:58:33So if you lose, should you be fired
0:58:33 > 0:58:36if they're telling you not to do something that the executives
0:58:36 > 0:58:38are sort of saying, "We don't want you to do"?
0:58:38 > 0:58:41I don't want to be fired, but I would own up to that one.
0:58:41 > 0:58:42I didn't really get it, I have to be honest,
0:58:42 > 0:58:45even when you explained it to me in the moment.
0:58:45 > 0:58:46If they explicitly said,
0:58:46 > 0:58:49"Don't make jokes at the expense of the plumbers"...
0:58:49 > 0:58:51- They said that. - And you integrated it.
0:58:51 > 0:58:54I couldn't really understand why you felt the need.
0:58:54 > 0:58:56There was another way to make the commercial have a little punch
0:58:56 > 0:58:59and a little humour, so why did you have to go that route?
0:58:59 > 0:59:03I felt that these commercials, they want something that stands out for their company.
0:59:03 > 0:59:05They want something that people will say, "I remember
0:59:05 > 0:59:07"that commercial. I stopped on the radio."
0:59:07 > 0:59:10When I hear commercials that just jabber the whole time without
0:59:10 > 0:59:12any humour. If you make yourself...
0:59:12 > 0:59:16Self-deprecation is a form of confidence.
0:59:16 > 0:59:18Well, let's hear the commercial.
0:59:20 > 0:59:22# Ben, Ben, Ben. #
0:59:22 > 0:59:26Hi! I'm Ben, the Punctual Plumber from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing.

1:00:25 > 1:00:27Mister Sparky, America's On-Time Electrician.
1:00:27 > 1:00:30Call 88-88-Sparky.
1:00:30 > 1:00:32Ivanka, what did the executives think?
1:00:32 > 1:00:36They thought that the phone number was extremely memorable.
1:00:36 > 1:00:39They thought the message was extremely clear.
1:00:39 > 1:00:41Great brand integration.
1:00:41 > 1:00:43And, of the three, this was the commercial that they felt
1:00:43 > 1:00:45they could put on the air if they needed to.
1:00:45 > 1:00:47That's awesome. Thank you.
1:00:47 > 1:00:50What did you think, Summer, of their commercials?
1:00:50 > 1:00:53I thought they were good. You know, it's hard to compare.
1:00:53 > 1:00:54Better than yours?
1:00:54 > 1:00:57No, I didn't think so. But ours are very different.
1:00:57 > 1:00:58Curtis, what did you think?
1:00:58 > 1:01:01I thought they were a little bit inconsistent.
1:01:01 > 1:01:03I feel that they were a little off-brand.
1:01:03 > 1:01:06One had a catchy jingle, and the other didn't.
1:01:06 > 1:01:10Sharon, how do you respond to that? Look at me, Sharon.
1:01:10 > 1:01:13- You didn't like his comments? - No, I never do!
1:01:13 > 1:01:15- You disagree?- Sorry?
1:01:15 > 1:01:17- You disagree with his comments? - Absolutely.
1:01:17 > 1:01:20- What do you think, Maria? - I disagree with him.
1:01:22 > 1:01:24OK. Eric, do you have anything to say?
1:01:24 > 1:01:25Well, as far as Tenacity,
1:01:25 > 1:01:29one thing that was said about all of the three commercials is that they
1:01:29 > 1:01:33thought you really packed too much into too short of commercials.
1:01:34 > 1:01:38They also thought your radio spots really lacked originality,
1:01:38 > 1:01:40but what they did like was hearing Cyndi sing.
1:01:43 > 1:01:46Well, let's hear the commercial with Cyndi.
1:01:46 > 1:01:49One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning, how can we save you time?
1:01:49 > 1:01:52My wife usually takes care of this. Our heater broke.
1:01:52 > 1:01:55She says I won't have to wait around for my appointment.
1:01:55 > 1:01:58We can guarantee a window. We're always on time or you don't pay a dime.
1:01:58 > 1:02:00With service like that, what will it cost me?
1:02:00 > 1:02:03Once we diagnose the problem, we give you straightforward pricing.
1:02:03 > 1:02:05All our work and products are guaranteed.
1:02:05 > 1:02:07- And the technicians? - The best in the business.
1:02:07 > 1:02:10# For One Hour Heating and Air Conditioning
1:02:10 > 1:02:14# Call 888-333
1:02:14 > 1:02:17# 88-88, cos we are never late. #
1:02:17 > 1:02:20So the executives felt that you had a lot of words,
1:02:20 > 1:02:22and it was hard to understand.
1:02:22 > 1:02:25By the way, I have to tell you, I agree with them.
1:02:25 > 1:02:28Now, let's hear the one that they liked.
1:02:28 > 1:02:31As a busy mom, my schedule is packed.
1:02:31 > 1:02:33Between school drop off, work and soccer practice,
1:02:33 > 1:02:36I don't have time to sit around and wait for my plumbing appointment.
1:02:36 > 1:02:38My time is important and Benjamin Franklin,
1:02:38 > 1:02:40The Punctual Plumber, understands that.
1:02:40 > 1:02:41In fact, they guarantee it.

1:02:54 > 1:02:59# Call 877-Ben-1776. #
1:02:59 > 1:03:01Eric, what did the executives think?
1:03:01 > 1:03:04Well, the executives thought that the music was very good
1:03:04 > 1:03:07and you really hit on the brand message of their company.
1:03:07 > 1:03:11- OK. Not bad, right, Sharon? - Yeah, very good. Very professional.
1:03:11 > 1:03:15- Better than yours?- Um, different. - Would you say better, or no?- No.
1:03:15 > 1:03:16What did you think, Maria?
1:03:16 > 1:03:18Um, it sounded like a commercial.
1:03:18 > 1:03:20You know, and like any other commercial,
1:03:20 > 1:03:22I probably would click through it.
1:03:22 > 1:03:25And I just thought ours were more musical.
1:03:25 > 1:03:27OK. Bret, what do you think?
1:03:27 > 1:03:30I think ours had a little more originality.
1:03:31 > 1:03:34All right. Let's find out who won.
1:03:38 > 1:03:43I thought both teams did a great job. Really a great job.
1:03:43 > 1:03:46- Thank you.- I thought it was imaginative, every commercial.
1:03:46 > 1:03:48I thought they were really good.
1:03:48 > 1:03:53The executives thought one team was OK at best,
1:03:53 > 1:03:55and one team was fantastic.
1:03:55 > 1:04:00Overall, one team just did a better job with all three commercials.
1:04:00 > 1:04:03Summer, what am I going to do?
1:04:03 > 1:04:05What do you want me to do, Summer?
1:04:05 > 1:04:07I'd like you to say that we won.
1:04:07 > 1:04:11Well, I can't do that because you didn't win, Summer.
1:04:11 > 1:04:14- Yes! - You didn't win. Rocksolid, you win.
1:04:14 > 1:04:19They loved... I have to say this, Sharon. They loved what you did.
1:04:19 > 1:04:22# 88-88 Sparky 88-88 Sparky
1:04:22 > 1:04:25# 88-88 Sparky... #
1:04:25 > 1:04:28They love what they do too, apparently.
1:04:28 > 1:04:30Well, you really did. They felt you were fantastic.
1:04:30 > 1:04:33They're going to be using it nationwide, all over the place.
1:04:33 > 1:04:36Bret, very importantly, 40,000 to your charity.
1:04:36 > 1:04:37Yes. Thank you very much.
1:04:37 > 1:04:39Once again, what is your charity, Bret?
1:04:39 > 1:04:41My charity is the American Diabetes Association
1:04:41 > 1:04:44- and the Bret Michaels Fund. - Congratulations.
1:04:44 > 1:04:47- Thank you very much.- So your daughter is very happy with you, Bret.
1:04:47 > 1:04:48- Thank you.- Very happy.
1:04:48 > 1:04:50And I'd be happy to be their spokesperson.
1:04:50 > 1:04:53- Hey, Bret, before you leave, before you leave...- Yes?
1:04:53 > 1:04:56If you were me, you know these people.
1:04:56 > 1:04:59You've gotten to know them well. Who would you fire?
1:05:02 > 1:05:03That's tough.
1:05:03 > 1:05:07I think I might start... I'd fire Summer cos she's tough.
1:05:07 > 1:05:09And I'm not saying that cos she sucks.
1:05:09 > 1:05:11You're saying that because you want rid of her?
1:05:11 > 1:05:12- Damn straight.- OK.
1:05:12 > 1:05:16Sharon, who do you think I should fire?
1:05:16 > 1:05:19- Oh, Curtis. God, yes. - You don't like Curtis very much.
1:05:19 > 1:05:22- Not a lot.- Why? Just...
1:05:22 > 1:05:25Um, he's very smug. He's, um...
1:05:26 > 1:05:28He's Australian.
1:05:28 > 1:05:31Yeah, I know. I know. Put another shrimp on the barbie.
1:05:31 > 1:05:37It's, um... He's just too smug for me and...
1:05:37 > 1:05:40- Are Australians like that? - Yeah. Usually, yeah.
1:05:40 > 1:05:44Really? I'm surprised to hear that. I think of Curtis as a nice guy.
1:05:44 > 1:05:46What do you think of what she's saying, Curtis?
1:05:46 > 1:05:49I'm a bit surprised, cos Sharon and I haven't even gotten to work
1:05:49 > 1:05:51on the same team yet, so I'm not sure.
1:05:51 > 1:05:53I do agree with Sharon on this instance.
1:05:53 > 1:05:56I don't know what is. I look at him and I'm like,
1:05:56 > 1:05:59"I want to punch you for some reason."
1:05:59 > 1:06:01- IVANKA:- This is tough. This is a tough room, Curtis.
1:06:01 > 1:06:03What do you say about this, Curtis?
1:06:03 > 1:06:06I haven't got to work with Maria either,
1:06:06 > 1:06:09so they've obviously formed really strong opinions on me.
1:06:09 > 1:06:13They really have. I didn't know people would form... I don't know,
1:06:13 > 1:06:15he doesn't seem like that kind of a guy to me.
1:06:17 > 1:06:19OK. Let's go, get out.
1:06:19 > 1:06:23- Thank you. Congratulations, Sharon. - Thank you very much.
1:06:23 > 1:06:26- Good job.- Tell the guys "thank you." - Good job, Bret. Excellent.
1:06:26 > 1:06:30- Yes! Come on, let's go party. - 40,000, Bret.- Thank you.
1:06:30 > 1:06:32- You made my work... - Well done.
1:06:32 > 1:06:35I gotta be honest, I couldn't even fake it.
1:06:35 > 1:06:36That's awesome.
1:06:36 > 1:06:38Aw! Group hug!
1:06:40 > 1:06:44OK, Tenacity. Unfortunately, somebody's going to be fired.
1:06:53 > 1:06:56All righty then! All righty!
1:06:56 > 1:07:00# 88-88 Sparky 88-88 Sparky. #
1:07:00 > 1:07:02'Being on Celebrity Apprentice, I got to tell you,'
1:07:02 > 1:07:05is such an amazing feeling. I'm proud to be here.
1:07:05 > 1:07:07'I'm happy to be here. But it is a lot of hard work.
1:07:07 > 1:07:10'And I just keep coming back swinging and fighting.'
1:07:10 > 1:07:13And to still be standing here and make all this money
1:07:13 > 1:07:16and raise it for diabetes, that's a good day.
1:07:16 > 1:07:19All right. Ladies and gentleman, here we go.
1:07:19 > 1:07:21So what do you think, Summer?
1:07:21 > 1:07:24Well, I'm disappointed. I thought ours sounded great.
1:07:24 > 1:07:28But that's the one thing everyone was saying to me, "Are you nervous?"
1:07:28 > 1:07:30And I just said, "I'm anxious," because I...
1:07:30 > 1:07:33But you sort of get what they were saying, right?
1:07:33 > 1:07:35- I actually don't. - What do you think, Holly?
1:07:35 > 1:07:38Just based on the fact that their team referred to a plumber's crack
1:07:38 > 1:07:40in any way shape or form,
1:07:40 > 1:07:42I'm surprised that they would want to use any of those spots.
1:07:42 > 1:07:45They were so adamant about "Don't you dare talk about..."
1:07:45 > 1:07:47But their commercial was great.
1:07:47 > 1:07:49They were very, very specific, which you weren't.
1:07:49 > 1:07:52Yours was not as good. Their commercials were so clear.
1:07:52 > 1:07:55That was a big advantage, I think.
1:07:56 > 1:07:59Holly, how did you fit in? It's interesting, seeing Summer,
1:07:59 > 1:08:01you were doing a great job directing.
1:08:01 > 1:08:03Cyndi, you were doing a great job with jingles
1:08:03 > 1:08:05and coordinating, as I'd expect you to.
1:08:05 > 1:08:07But you seemed the most reserved, Holly.
1:08:07 > 1:08:08You seemed in the background.
1:08:08 > 1:08:11You didn't say a lot to me when I was observing you.
1:08:11 > 1:08:12No, I was doing a lot.
1:08:12 > 1:08:15I did the entire Mister Sparky spot from top to bottom.
1:08:15 > 1:08:19I directed the jingle. And I also wrote all the creative.
1:08:19 > 1:08:22Is it fair to say that Cyndi may have carried the team?
1:08:22 > 1:08:26It seemed like she had a large part in writing many of these jingles,
1:08:26 > 1:08:28or at least directing the tone.
1:08:28 > 1:08:32I think it's very fair to say that Cyndi was a huge part of this.
1:08:32 > 1:08:34I mean, she was in her element, and I was proud of her
1:08:34 > 1:08:38because she was writing inside the box, which she doesn't usually do.
1:08:38 > 1:08:41There was no edge to what we were really doing.
1:08:41 > 1:08:44It was less... It was less Cyndi than I'd ever seen Cyndi do before.
1:08:44 > 1:08:46I was really proud of the way she came out.
1:08:46 > 1:08:49Would you say she's the strongest person on the team?
1:08:49 > 1:08:52Strongest person on the team? I still would say would be Summer,
1:08:52 > 1:08:54because Summer had a unique ability
1:08:54 > 1:08:57to diagnose what each one of us could do,
1:08:57 > 1:08:59and then delegate that properly.
1:09:01 > 1:09:05Summer, can you explain a little bit the rationale behind making
1:09:05 > 1:09:07everyone sort of a micro project manager
1:09:07 > 1:09:09and delegating to the point where they were
1:09:09 > 1:09:12really in charge of the content of each of these different commercials?
1:09:12 > 1:09:15I thought it was appropriate since we had four people
1:09:15 > 1:09:18that each one could take one of the concepts.
1:09:18 > 1:09:21We all wanted to separate so we could think by ourselves
1:09:21 > 1:09:25and then come back, then I would take a look at it and make sure it was what we wanted.
1:09:25 > 1:09:28You delegated a lot in this task, which may have been smart
1:09:28 > 1:09:31strategically, or may have been just the way you thought it was
1:09:31 > 1:09:35the most effective, but of the three different commercials,
1:09:35 > 1:09:38which was the weakest and which was the strongest, in your opinion?
1:09:38 > 1:09:40- And I know you have an opinion. - Yeah, I don't know.
1:09:40 > 1:09:43I know our strongest was the One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning.
1:09:43 > 1:09:46- Which was Cyndi's.- Mm-hmm. - And which was the weakest?
1:09:46 > 1:09:48The other two were kind of the same for me.
1:09:48 > 1:09:51I knew that One Hour Heating And Air Conditioning was...
1:09:51 > 1:09:53The amazing thing is they felt so strongly.
1:09:53 > 1:09:55- They were in love with this group. - Oh, wow.- Right.
1:09:55 > 1:09:57It wasn't like, "Oh, gee, I thought they were both good."
1:09:57 > 1:10:01And I have that sometimes too, where two teams are almost, like, tied.
1:10:01 > 1:10:05- Right.- And I always feel guilty. I feel very guilty firing someone
1:10:05 > 1:10:07when they're basically the same.
1:10:07 > 1:10:09They felt you were just not nearly as good.
1:10:11 > 1:10:13Well, I have to respect that
1:10:13 > 1:10:15because they clearly know what their brand is.
1:10:15 > 1:10:17That was one of the things I was really worried about.
1:10:17 > 1:10:21I wasn't 100% sure that we understood exactly how
1:10:21 > 1:10:22conservative they wanted to be.
1:10:22 > 1:10:25We were really... I mean, we had long conversations about,
1:10:25 > 1:10:28"Should we be edgy at all or should we be conservative?"
1:10:28 > 1:10:32So maybe we, you know, maybe we missed the boat on that.
1:10:32 > 1:10:34Cyndi, you're a great songwriter.
1:10:34 > 1:10:37What did you think of your performance?
1:10:38 > 1:10:40Because the executives were surprised because they really
1:10:40 > 1:10:43expected to hear more from you, in terms of the voice.
1:10:43 > 1:10:47I had, um, no voice. So, for a time expediency...
1:10:47 > 1:10:50- You lost your voice?- Yeah. - Does that happen often?
1:10:50 > 1:10:53- No. That's what freaked me out. - How did that happen?
1:10:53 > 1:10:56Well, I'm allergic to dust, really badly.
1:10:56 > 1:11:00When we went to that place in the morning, it had a lot of dust
1:11:00 > 1:11:04and that's part of it. And my allergies, and also no sleep.
1:11:04 > 1:11:06Kind of like the Survivor course.
1:11:06 > 1:11:09You know, the executives really loved your voice.
1:11:09 > 1:11:12They just wished they heard more from you.
1:11:13 > 1:11:16So, Curtis, who would you fire if you were me?
1:11:19 > 1:11:23I would imagine that the onus of responsibility
1:11:23 > 1:11:25probably falls on Summer, as project manager.
1:11:27 > 1:11:30All right, look. I want three people in this room, not four.
1:11:30 > 1:11:33- Mm-hmm.- So you'll have to tell me who should not be fired.
1:11:33 > 1:11:35Not an easy chore, but you'll have to do that.
1:11:35 > 1:11:38Who should not be fired?
1:11:42 > 1:11:44Um...
1:11:47 > 1:11:49Come on, Summer.
1:11:49 > 1:11:50Holly shouldn't be fired.
1:11:52 > 1:11:55- You think Holly was outstanding? - Mm-hmm.
1:11:55 > 1:11:58Is that because of past performance or this task?
1:11:58 > 1:12:02Um, she was just awesome. I mean, Cyndi was fantastic.
1:12:02 > 1:12:04Holly's just... She's consistent.
1:12:04 > 1:12:07So, Holly, enjoy your suite at Trump Tower.
1:12:07 > 1:12:09The rest of you go out, you'll come back in a minute.
1:12:09 > 1:12:12- Somebody will be fired. Thank you. - Thank you.
1:12:20 > 1:12:23- Bye.- Bye. Good luck, guys.
1:12:23 > 1:12:25- Oh, have fun. - It ain't fun.
1:12:25 > 1:12:26Have fun in there.
1:12:26 > 1:12:30Please, can I stay with you? I don't want to go with that group.
1:12:32 > 1:12:34All right. Who do we think's going to go?
1:12:34 > 1:12:36Curtis.
1:12:36 > 1:12:37- Hi, babe!- Hey, guys.
1:12:37 > 1:12:40- Hello, Holly. Come in. Come in. - Hey.
1:12:40 > 1:12:43So, Holly, let's cut to the chase. Who's going?
1:12:43 > 1:12:44Who do you think?
1:12:44 > 1:12:47You know, I really don't want Summer to go, but I mean, if you have
1:12:47 > 1:12:50to look at it, Cyndi was, you know, really in charge of those jingles.
1:12:50 > 1:12:54We thought our jingles were hot, but we were so scared to go edgy.
1:12:54 > 1:12:56Like, we were so scared of those guys.
1:12:56 > 1:13:00I don't know, you guys. Who do you guys think is going home?
1:13:00 > 1:13:04- I think, honestly, it's... You know what?- Curtis.
1:13:04 > 1:13:06It's either going to be Curtis or Summer.
1:13:06 > 1:13:10- I'm so sorry we lost, you guys. - Me too.- Yeah.
1:13:10 > 1:13:12I did everything that I was asked. I really tried.
1:13:12 > 1:13:14No, I know. You did.
1:13:15 > 1:13:16Everybody did.
1:13:28 > 1:13:30Eric, what do you think?
1:13:30 > 1:13:32I think Summer was a decent leader, but I think ultimately
1:13:32 > 1:13:34the responsibility probably falls on her.
1:13:34 > 1:13:38- Ivanka?- I think Curtis generally seems to not have the respect
1:13:38 > 1:13:40of the people that remain.
1:13:40 > 1:13:43Very interesting. OK.
1:13:43 > 1:13:44Amanda, let them in.
1:13:44 > 1:13:46Mr Trump is ready, you can go back in.
1:13:46 > 1:13:48- Thank you.- Thank you.
1:14:00 > 1:14:01Sit down, please.
1:14:04 > 1:14:06- Hi. - Never a good position to be in.
1:14:06 > 1:14:10Oh, I can't stand losing. I don't like it at all.
1:14:10 > 1:14:13I'm competitive. I wanted the 40,000 for my charity.
1:14:13 > 1:14:17And I thought we had a pretty good product, but apparently not.
1:14:17 > 1:14:21Why is it that the other team seems to dislike you so much, Curtis?
1:14:21 > 1:14:24You seem like a hell of a nice guy to me, I don't get it.
1:14:24 > 1:14:26I'm a bit surprised as well, Mr Trump, to be honest.
1:14:26 > 1:14:29I haven't had much to do at all with Maria.
1:14:29 > 1:14:30And Sharon and I,
1:14:30 > 1:14:35we've exchanged... Maybe it's a colonial joke she's sort of having.
1:14:35 > 1:14:38You know, the English and the Aussies go back and forward a bit.
1:14:38 > 1:14:41But I get on quite well with Sharon up until right now.
1:14:41 > 1:14:44I'm a little bit disappointed in you, though, because they were
1:14:44 > 1:14:47really hitting you hard, and you sort of didn't fight back.
1:14:47 > 1:14:50I speak really respectfully to women, Mr Trump.
1:14:50 > 1:14:52And I didn't think that it was appropriate
1:14:52 > 1:14:55that I start screaming across the table at them.
1:14:57 > 1:14:59OK.
1:14:59 > 1:15:02Summer, who do you think I should fire?
1:15:07 > 1:15:10I honestly can't answer that question. We...
1:15:10 > 1:15:12- I think you have to.- Really?
1:15:12 > 1:15:14Because otherwise you'll get fired.
1:15:14 > 1:15:15You're the project manager.
1:15:15 > 1:15:19If you can't answer that question, you're going to get fired.
1:15:20 > 1:15:23Um, Cyndi did everything that I told her to do.
1:15:23 > 1:15:27She worked extremely hard. Um, if you weren't to fire me,
1:15:27 > 1:15:30then the only other person to fire would be Curtis.
1:15:30 > 1:15:33What does that mean, "If I weren't to fire you"?
1:15:33 > 1:15:38Listen, in our group I tasked everybody to do a job.
1:15:38 > 1:15:41Holly did a job, that's why I sent her back. She did a great job.
1:15:41 > 1:15:44Cyndi did a wonderful job putting our jingles together.
1:15:44 > 1:15:47There was... I had to bring two people in here.
1:15:47 > 1:15:49But, Summer, who should I fire?
1:15:49 > 1:15:51Should I fire you or should I fire Curtis?
1:15:52 > 1:15:54I'm not going to fire Cyndi
1:15:54 > 1:15:57because she really doesn't come into this equation.
1:15:57 > 1:15:58I think. Do you agree?
1:15:58 > 1:16:02- I agree.- OK. So, Cyndi, unless you say something really stupid,
1:16:02 > 1:16:05which is possible, you're not going to be fired, all right?
1:16:05 > 1:16:08In fact, get out of here. You're not going to be fired. Go.
1:16:08 > 1:16:10It's down to us.
1:16:14 > 1:16:16Curtis, please move over.
1:16:17 > 1:16:20What did you think of Summer as the project manager?
1:16:21 > 1:16:24Mr Trump, I've got a lot of respect for Summer
1:16:24 > 1:16:27and I think that she made some really good decisions.
1:16:27 > 1:16:30At every point you have to go left or you have to go right.
1:16:30 > 1:16:33We had to stay conservative or we had to be a bit more edgy.
1:16:33 > 1:16:35We had that conversation and I was the one that brought it up
1:16:35 > 1:16:38and said, "Are you comfortable with where we're at?
1:16:38 > 1:16:40"Shouldn't we be a bit edgier or should we be..."
1:16:40 > 1:16:44- Did you want to be more edgy? - I just wanted to bring it up and give Summer the option.
1:16:44 > 1:16:47- I felt that...- Is that true, Summer? - Yeah, he did.
1:16:47 > 1:16:48So he was probably right.
1:16:48 > 1:16:51But I completely understand the position Summer was in.
1:16:51 > 1:16:55Curtis, don't you think Summer's been a very, very strong player?
1:16:55 > 1:16:58And wouldn't you think it would be a shame to fire her at this point?
1:16:58 > 1:17:02Absolutely, Mr Trump. She has been a strong player.
1:17:02 > 1:17:05She's won one of the challenges and this time she lost one.
1:17:07 > 1:17:11I mean, going forward, are you more likely to beat the other team,
1:17:11 > 1:17:13- which is quite formidable at this point...- Right.
1:17:13 > 1:17:15..or is Curtis? And why?
1:17:16 > 1:17:20So, going forward, I do think that I'm a stronger player. Um...
1:17:20 > 1:17:21What about in the past?
1:17:21 > 1:17:24In the past I think I've been a very strong player.
1:17:24 > 1:17:25Curtis, what do you think?
1:17:27 > 1:17:30I think you should fire Summer. She was the project manager
1:17:30 > 1:17:33so, at the end of the day, the decisions came down to Summer.
1:17:33 > 1:17:36- I mean, that is a tough situation, Summer.- I know.
1:17:36 > 1:17:37Let's face it.
1:17:38 > 1:17:43Curtis, you didn't seem very loud about wanting to make this commercial a little bit more edgy.
1:17:43 > 1:17:44In fact, when I saw you guys,
1:17:44 > 1:17:47I think you hardly said anything to me. You were very quiet.
1:17:47 > 1:17:49And I have to say, to Summer's defence,
1:17:49 > 1:17:51she really was front and centre.
1:17:51 > 1:17:55She was just... She was there. She was all over the task.
1:17:55 > 1:17:58Absolutely. And I think the way that I work is, if I'm not
1:17:58 > 1:18:00the project manager, I don't want to derail her agenda.
1:18:00 > 1:18:03She has a vision and she wants to achieve that.
1:18:03 > 1:18:06I did voice my opinion with Summer and she'd taken it into account...
1:18:06 > 1:18:09Curtis, why should I fire Summer over you?
1:18:09 > 1:18:12Because I've won a challenge and I was very instrumental
1:18:12 > 1:18:14in winning the first one, that was the diner challenge.
1:18:14 > 1:18:17- Summer's won one...- Summer, he has been a strong player.
1:18:17 > 1:18:19You both have. But he has been a strong player.
1:18:19 > 1:18:21He has been a very strong player.
1:18:26 > 1:18:29- You're having a hard time with it, right?- Listen... I am.
1:18:29 > 1:18:32Summer, you're having a hard time, right?
1:18:33 > 1:18:35Who should I fire?
1:18:36 > 1:18:40- Well, I'm going to say Curtis. - And why should I fire Curtis?
1:18:41 > 1:18:44I was project manager and I tasked people to do things.
1:18:44 > 1:18:47It was difficult for Curtis to be involved
1:18:47 > 1:18:54because we had our jingle set by Cyndi, our commercials set by Holly.
1:18:55 > 1:18:59And what was hard for Curtis was to get the Australian accent
1:18:59 > 1:19:03- out of the creative of his jingle. - OK, I understand that.
1:19:03 > 1:19:05- I can't fault him for that. - That's not his fault.
1:19:05 > 1:19:08Exactly. So nothing is his fault.
1:19:08 > 1:19:10I'm saying Curtis because I want to be on this show.
1:19:10 > 1:19:12I want to compete for my charity.
1:19:12 > 1:19:14That's not a compelling reason, though.
1:19:14 > 1:19:17- You haven't been in this boardroom before.- Right.
1:19:17 > 1:19:19- Curtis has been here quite a few times.- Right.
1:19:19 > 1:19:22- You have been stronger to date. - Right.
1:19:22 > 1:19:23You're not saying any of that.
1:19:23 > 1:19:27So either you're sort of giving up or you really don't believe anything
1:19:27 > 1:19:29you're saying and you think he's stronger than you.
1:19:29 > 1:19:33You bring up a good point. I have not been in this boardroom. Every single time the girls...
1:19:33 > 1:19:36- YOU should have brought up this point, though!- I should have.
1:19:36 > 1:19:37But can I bring it up now?
1:19:41 > 1:19:43I think it's a little late for that.
1:19:45 > 1:19:49It's a very tough situation, Summer. You're a great player.
1:19:49 > 1:19:51You really are a great player.
1:19:51 > 1:19:54- But you are the project manager. - Correct.
1:19:54 > 1:19:57And you haven't given a very strong argument for you to stay.
1:19:57 > 1:19:59Summer, you're fired.
1:20:04 > 1:20:08- Thank you.- Thank you very much. - I'm sorry.- That's OK.
1:20:09 > 1:20:11- Bye, guys.- Thank you, Summer. - Eric, you did a good job.
1:20:11 > 1:20:15- Thank you, Summer.- Bye, Ivanka. - Bye, Summer. Thank you.
1:20:15 > 1:20:17- I'm sorry, babe. - That's all right.
1:20:17 > 1:20:19I'll get it. I'll get it.
1:20:21 > 1:20:23- Good luck, sweetie.- Thank you.
1:20:23 > 1:20:25- Give those kids a big squeeze for me.- I will.
1:20:27 > 1:20:29Hi.
1:20:32 > 1:20:35- Tough decision. - She's a great person.
1:20:35 > 1:20:38You don't get better, but she was the project manager - they lost.
1:20:38 > 1:20:41I think that's right. She wasn't able to defend herself.
1:21:16 > 1:21:17It sucks to be fired.
1:21:17 > 1:21:20I'm probably one of the most competitive people out there,
1:21:20 > 1:21:21first of all, so I hated losing.
1:21:21 > 1:21:25And then to hear the words, "You're fired," is awful.
1:21:25 > 1:21:28I've never been fired in my life. I don't want to be fired again.
1:21:28 > 1:21:30I realise that somebody had to go.
1:21:30 > 1:21:33It's just... it's not fun to hear the words.
