“It’s Christmas Eve, for heavens sake–stop working, everyone, so that I can get some work done!”

I think a lot about the American Condition… we work harder and longer than any other society in the world. Even the Japanese get more days off than us.

On the outside, you hear people complain about it. But at our core, I think we like it. I think our work ethic is the essence of who we are.

In Matt’s post, he talks about how he often would sneak away while others were vacationing so he could get extra work done. He goes on to say that so many others are doing the same now, that it’s like a normal work day.

We are a dedicated bunch.
Matt Cutts: Gadgets, Google, and SEO ? Stop working!

So have you ever gotten off an airplane at Cleveland Hopkins and needed to get to Kaufmans in the Heights right away? What’s worse in this insane hypothetical situation is that you need to do it by public transportation. Well now there’s an easy way to figure it out. Check out this site:
Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority View Itineraries.

You can put in your starting point and destination point either by address or landmark and it will give you the route to get there.

It’s a fun and valuable tool.

Incidentally, here’s the route for our imaginary plan:

bus Depart: AIRPORT RTS 9:14a
On route: 66 - (East)
Arrive: UNIVERSITY CIRCLE RTS 9:50a
transfer
bus Transfer to: CEDAR AV & MARTIN LUTHER KING DR 9:57a
On route: 32 - Cedar (East)
Arrive: CEDAR RD & WARRENSVILLE CENTER RD 10:12a

Thanks George.

The Apprentice 4 Episode 13 - The Final Showdown
Each of the finalists must manage a massive charity event: one a celebrity softball game, the other a star-studded comedy show.

The conclusion of the final two tasks; a cast reunion; the boardroom hiring of Trump’s newest employee. Season Finale

It’s Randal and Rebecca.

We’ve finally gotten to the last episode. Both candidates look like they’ve got some trouble.

This show is partly live and partly prerecorded. It starts with Trump, Carolyn and George taking a limo to Alice Tully Hall live on the show. Robin is there and takes Trump’s coat. There’s a packed hall with a really enthusiastic crowd.

Trump says that over 1 million people applied for The Apprentice.

Trump says that last week we saw that rain was threatening Randal’s game and Rebecca was having a hard time with her show.

Trump asks the crowd who they prefer. Both Randal and Rebecca get a loud cheer. Trump says he hasn’t made up his mind yet. I think I actually believe him.

After the intro credits we go to Rebecca, Capital Edge.
Joe Piscopo cancelled at the last minute in the last episode. They are now desperately trying to find new talent for free.

Excel, Randal, gets rain for his event. It’s questionable if they can even play their game. Randal says he should have had a contingency plan. Randal says he will decide whether or not to play at 11:00. Randal is very optimistic. He says it’s drizzle, not rain.

Capital Edge got Pete Dominic from the Gotham Comedy Club, an MC from the club. Pete sounds confident but they are featuring him with bassoon music in the background which usually signifies the person is not great. He sounds ok to me.

Excel gets to the ball club. They are calling for rain throughout. 100% in the morning. 70% in the afternoon. It’s looking bad. Even if they play, the area will be a mess for the VIP’s. So Randal is improvising an indoor event.

They are cutting out the silent auction and have the live auction for Autism Speaks.

This is making for a pretty exciting finale.

“Responsibility”. Trump is live discussing Responsibility. He says a good leader can step up, take responsibility and make the best of it.

Rebecca is getting goodie bags together. Yahoo wants no outright solicitation. So they have put a donation envelope in the goodie bags. It’s not great. But it’s better than nothing.

Randal is meeting with the CEO from Outback and with the commentator, Jim Kerr.

Alison Singer, from Autism Speaks, is concerned how well their messaging is incorporated into the event. That is how she will measure success. Randal feels that Alison is very bothered. She does seem a little high maintenance. I would think she might be a little more grateful for Outback and The Apprentice giving her major national attention. Maybe she feels she needs to play the event a little hard ass. She is probably an analytical type of person. These people are sometimes called “Thinkers” in behavior assessment tests. They hate improvising. This event is all about improvising now. That is likely to not fair well for Randal’s review. Her behavior type is going to be hard to impress. But Randal is doing a good job, considering the circumstances.

Each candidate is having a live party… Rebecca’s in Chicago and Randal’s in Newark.

Trump brings out all of the candidates from this season.

capital Edge: Chris wants the Yahoo sign to “smack them in the face.” Chris is concerned about the signs from The Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation.

Randal feels the event is chaos. Alison Singer is concerned because people are coming in 45 minutes. She is also concerned about losing checks.

Randal says that Mark, John and Marshawn were excellent team members.

Randal is very calm and collected. He says that the pieces of the puzzle are coming together.

Rebecca also looks strong. They have Yahoo-tinis, Yahoo blinking ice cubes. There is only one sign for The Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation. Carolyn is concerned that the event is too Yahoo. She is also concerned that Rebecca will be able to raise any money for the foundation. She has really been given some bad setups. Yahoo wouldn’t let her ask for donations and Glaser gave her one sign.

Randal goes out to meet Trump from his helicopter. He goes over some bullet points he wants to show Trump. This guy is unstoppable. How does he manage to be able to meet Trump, give him a mini presentation all the while, being in charge of running a major event? He is spectacular.

Randal: The event looks fun. Randal gives a presentation about the importance of the autism event. He is an excellent speaker, he is a “rock star for autism.” He’s just a star.

He tells the audience that Trump is a humanitarian. Trump says that Randal has everything well under control.

The celebrities for the event are:
Sugar Ray Leanard
Jerome Williams
Queer Eye for the Straight Guy

They hold an open auction event. Alison Singer says that Randal was able to express that autism has reached epidemic proportions.

Rebecca meets with the executives. She is hoping that the donation envelopes will do the trick. Trump calls ahead to say he’s on his way.

Trump discusses “Respect”. “Always treat your boss with great respect.” He sets up the scene to see how Rebecca treats Trump. Trump says the event is hard to find. I kind of feel a bit bad for Rebecca. Some things appear to be out of her control.

Trump told people to go down and get ready for the comedy event. The show is starting a half hour before the event was to happen. The MC and comedians are a bit shocked and off set. Trump thinks the event might be a bit disorganized. Rebecca says that Trump was the biggest wild card of the event… hence the “Respect” comment. I think he was a bit insulted that she insinuated he caused her difficulty. Rebecca should have controlled Trump a bit better, let him know the schedule instead of letting him control the schedule. “Mr. Trump, our event is going to start in 45 minutes, but would you be willing to say a few words to the people here?” That would have done it. But he didn’t know the schedule, so he made it up.

Rebecca’s event is a bit uncomfortable for me. That’s where they begin. Jake Glaser speaks and says that his mother would be happy with the event. Pete Dominic, starts and rips George quite a bit. He is a judge of the event. George says he’s been married for 53 years. The comic also rips George. It seems like he likes it.

Randal’s event raps up and says his teammates really stepped up for him. He hugs them all. He loves his team. That’s the quality of a great leader. He is grateful that they just wanted to see him succeed. Randal says he felt humbled and relieved after the event.

Rebecca’s event raps up. She thanks everyone for coming. They hand out the gift bags at the end. Rebecca feels that the event supported her charity very well. George speaks really highly of the event. Rebecca says she has no regrets. She also feel strongly about her teammates.

Oh crap! I think I didn’t Tivo this right. I might have lost a few minutes. I was behind a bit and my Tivo stopped recording at 10. Sorry if I missed anything too good. I’m at the point where Rebecca and Randal get dressed and head to the boardroom. She feels this could be the toughest boardroom ever.

Rebecca’s hopping is hard to watch. I wonder how things would be if she hadn’t broken her foot.

Their teammates meet with Trump.

Josh says Randal was a phenomenal leader. Trump says Randal’s event raised about $11,000.

Rebecca’s team is trying to support the fact that Yahoo didn’t want them to make an overt request for money. Trump says that if he were Yahoo he would make a major contribution to the Glaser Foundation. Technically, Rebecca’s team made no money. George asks who was running the event. I don’t know if you could have forced Yahoo to let them ask for money. Although, that should have been the stipulation. And Yahoo had never done a charity event before. They might have taken some direction.

Randal’s team says that they were taken in a similar direction with his sponsor. But he was able to get the open auction.

Marshawn says that Randal is without a doubt a better candidate.

Carolyn says that Rebecca handled the event very well. Carolyn says that Randal didn’t handle the event as well. Carolyn says not having a Plan B is a major mistake. George says he didn’t recognize the celebrities. He said they should have been put on stage. Randal’s team says that was intentional.

Trump wants to know if Randal is tough enough to make it in New York. He says that he is very laid back.

Trump says that Rebecca is tough and stood up for Toral against what everyone else said. Trump really like that. Toral says that Rebecca is a better human being than her. Rebecca is 23 and really tough.

Trump says he’s stuck with two stars.

The fact that Rebecca is 23 is really pretty amazing.

Rebecca and Randal go into the boardroom.

Randal says he deserves to work for Trump because he has an undefeated recorded and has really set himself apart. Rebecca is not afraid to stand up for what she believes.

Rebecca didn’t meet him at his car.

Rebecca didn’t raise any money. This is a big concern being that it’s a charity event. Rebecca felt that Yahoo was the client. That might be a mistake.

Trump says that Randal has had better events. Trump wants a list of auction items. Randal says he liked the stars out in the crowd. Randal had no Plan B.

Rebecca has a 1 and 2 record.

Randal is a Rhodes Scholar and from MIT. Wow. Rebecca says he is weak on looking at the larger objectives.

George says that both did a good job. Carolyn says also that they both did a lot right. She was really impressed by how connected they were with their teams.

The Yahoo event was better. But the Autism fundraising was better.

Maybe my mom is right… they both get hired. I’ve never really heard them discuss both candidates so positively.

Now the show is live. Rebecca is a financial journalist. She speaks with a lot of companies. She works with a non-profit called Pivot Consulting (I couldn’t find their web site)

Rebecca comes out without crutches. It makes her look really strong.

Randal went to Oxford and MIT. He now works with BCT Partners. The crowd chants “Randal , Randal”. When he walks out he says, “Let’s make it happen.” He is so cool.

Marshawn says that their has never been an easier choice than Randal. She speaks very eloquently of Randal. Jennifer M. is a Randal supporter. She says that he is a natural leader. Alla says she sees nothing out of Rebecca. Randal is in a different league. That’s rough.

Rebecca is strong. But Randal is unlike anyone I’ve ever seen. Quite frankly, he shouldn’t work for anyone other than himself. Why would he want to work for Trump? I wonder what the reasoning is. Maybe it’s bigger than I think. Condoleeza Rice got her name on the side of an oil tanker. Randal will never get a building named after him as long as he works with Trump.

Dan Rosensweig, Chief Operating Officer of Yahoo says a few words. Yahoo donates $100,000 to be split among both charities. That’s a wise move. They really looked scared by not allowing any fundraising at their event.

These are the projects:
Trump is building Trump Plaza in New Jersey. It’s a $400 million complex.
They are expanding the 3 properties in Atlantic City. This will

Randal wants the AC project and Rebecca wants the New Jersey project. That’s ideal for both of them being hired.

Carolyn can’t believe Randal didn’t check the weather.

“If there is a concrete wall right in front of you, walk right through it,” Rebecca quotes Trump.

Randal says he runs business and Rebecca writes about business.

Randal goes back to the fact that he won all three of his projects where he was project manager. Rebecca’s record was not nearly as good. This is a good point. If that doesn’t play a part of this then why have we sat through the last 13 weeks?

Randal must win. The only question I have is if Rebecca gets to go along too. More and more, I think that’s the path.

Trump says he based his life around really good people. Trump says this is very important for him. Trump is very impressed with Randal’s education. Rebecca too has a great education. Trump is impressed how she handles pressure. The broken ankle was a major hurdle.

Trump says he is dubious of Rebecca’s loyalty. I like the fact that she’s loyal. But who she is tied to.

Trump says Rebecca is outstanding but Randal is hired. Randal says that she is outstanding. Trump asks Randal if he should hire Rebecca. Randal says there is only one Apprentice. And therefore he shouldn’t hire her. So Trump doesn’t hire her. That’s cold. He wants to win. That is really a crazy twist.

It may be ok. Maybe Randal doesn’t think she deserves it. Maybe he feels they wouldn’t work well together.

Here’s a picture of Indy and the Christmas Tree. 

the researchers found that the pessimistic test-takers had a greater risk of death. And the more pessimistic the person, the greater the risk.

In my circles, I’m known as the rose colored, half full guy. It turns out that’s doing me more good than I even thought.

As the optimist I must tell you, don’t fret! The study also found that you can go from being negative to being positive. This article gives some tips on how to do it:

If you need a reason to waste like the rest of your day, check out this game:
Elf

Each of the finalists must manage a massive charity event: one a celebrity softball game, the other a star-studded comedy show.

It’s Randal and Rebecca.

I just got home from my own bit of business. Our business had a booth at the Search Engine Strategies show in Chicago.

This is a picture of our booth from my camera phone. It was a good show. If you have an interest in learning more about the search engine business I highly recommend checking out the show. You can find one of the shows around the country and now around the world.

I was afraid I might not get back in time to do the Apprentice final show. But the 6 hour drive went smoothly.

On to The Apprentice 4 Final Showdown.

My mom, also an Apprentice fan, thinks the surprise ending will be that both Rebecca and Randal will win. While Rebecca is strong, I think her character judgment leaves something to be desired. So my vote is on Randal.

I do feel that Alla maybe got sucked down with Felisha. That was a bit of bad luck. However, if Alla was more perceptive, she should have been more in tune with who Felisha was. Alla only has one mode… bulldozer. Alla can only work with strong people. But it’s all water under the bridge now.

The episode starts off with Trump walking into the suite. Rebecca and Randal are shocked and happy to be in the final two. They are both really sincere, genuine people. They are going to dinner with Carolyn and George. That’s a nice opportunity. Randal and Rebecca congratulate each other. Wow. I’m really impressed with them. My mom might be right. Maybe they both will win. Any company would be lucky to have those two. I wonder if they really want to work for someone else. It would be a great experience to work in the Trump enterprise, but would these two want that to be their career?

MEGU is the restaurant that Rebecca and Randal go to. Interestingly, it doesn’t actually do particularly well in Yahoo for its name. It’s not uncommon that companies don’t do well for their own name in the search engines, but it’s never less shocking every time I see it.

George has never had sashimi: raw saltwater fish and other foods sliced paper thin and served decoratively; a native Japanese dish.

They have to pick their teams at dinner.

Randal wants:
Josh James and Mark
Rebecca wants:
Josh, James and Chris

Randal takes:
Josh, Mark, Marshawn

Rebecca takes:
James, Chris, Toral
Rebecca is controlling these negotiations
Rebecca takes Toral. This is insane and goes back to her reading people poorly. Toral is not as great as Rebecca thinks she is.

The task is managing all aspects of two events.

Rebecca manages the Yahoo All Star Event at a nightclub in Manhattan for the The Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation.

Randal is managing the Outback Steakhouse VIP Softball Challenge for the charity Autism Speaks.

They’ll be judged on their overall managing ability.

They employees come back in.

Rebecca is Capital Edge and Randal is Excel.

Randal is very happy with his team. And Toral says she is going to work hard for Rebecca. They look to be pretty interesting teams. Toral, I predict, is going to be the weak link.

Randal helps Rebecca with her stuff. Randal says he feels sentimental seeing his team again.

Rebecca believes that her team is loyal and underestimated. She says that as a leader you sometimes have to see a diamond in the rough. She believes this will be won by this being a team effort. I agree. But with “diamonds in the rough.”

Randal’s team is so for him. They all want him to win. They are die hard Randal fans. They love him. This is very unlike last season.

Toral says she wants Rebecca to win. James, who is on Rebecca’s team says that he is friends with Randal but will see that Rebecca wins.

Randal has more loyalty than anyone I have ever seen.

Randal is going to have these events: a tailgate, the game and VIP reception. The weather is really good for the event.

Rebecca and James go to meet with the Yahoo executives. Yahoo has never hosted a charity event before. So they are very reliant on Rebecca. They need to tie in Yahoo, comedy and fundraising. That seems challenging. Plus, since Yahoo has never done this before, they’ve got to build something out of nothing.

Rebecca is using Affinity Marketing to develop the program. Chris, an NFL lineman, is a marketing executive that they are working with. He’s an interesting guy.

Randal takes time to understand the autism facts of the event. “Increased awareness increases fundraising.” The autism executive feels that Randal may be too focused on the logistics and less on the message. I think this is just to get us off the path that Randal’s team is so together.

Rebecca’s team meets with Joe Piscopo - comedian, actor, singer and entertainer. He will MC the event for Rebecca.

Again, Rebecca’s team comments on how much they respect Randal but will be working really hard for Rebecca. They like Rebecca, but it’s not to the level that they like Randal. One of her teammates says that even though she is mentally, physically and emotionally exhausted, she is getting everything done. Rebecca is 10 years younger than Randal. She might not have the experience that he does.

This is definitely not the same experience as last season. These teams are working together. There is definitely much more love among the teams. That goes a long way to encourage enthusiasm.

Excel: They are meeting with Jim Kerr, from Q104.3 - New Yorks ONLY Classic Rock Station who is doing their color commentary.

Marshawn is in charge of the reception. She, Randal, Josh and Mark all go to the Party Supply store. There are 4 people in this store. Mark is not able to have his meeting with Jim Kerr because everyone is at the Party Supply store. This is a scheduling mistake and bad management. With this kind of schedule, one mistake like this can make the entire thing unravel.

Capital Edge is in the second day and the pace is picking up. Things are looking smooth with Rebecca’s team.

Josh and Randal go out to the field to discuss the layout. There is a bit of foreshadowing possibly about rain. The catering guy asks if they have rain provisions. Randal doesn’t. This could be a disaster.

Capital Edge: The Yahoo Executives some to the club on the second day of a three day task to review things. Rebecca is concerned that they might make big changes. Rebecca isn’t sure how best to raise money. The Yahoo executives are not interested in asking for donations from their big clients.

Mark at Excel is setting up the field and it’s going slow. Mark is getting everything together. There is no help from the rest of his teammates. The Outback Steakhouse guy says that they have to get the fences, signage all up before tomorrow. “You won’t be smiling tomorrow if you don’t represent my brand,” the Outback guy says.

Capital Edge gets a call from Joe Piscopo that he can’t do it because of union conflicts. So now they don’t have an MC.

Excel: it’s dark outside. Mark and Randal are putting up the chairs in the field. Marshawn is stuffing bags. There it is, the weather report is “cold and rainy.”

Rebecca has no MC and Randal has looming bad weather.

There was a lot of information in this episode.

Here’s The Apprentice: Donald Trump - Apprentice Charities - Official Site on Yahoo!.

It’s hard to make any analysis tonight. I’m looking forward to seeing how this all pans out.

The final four contestants must create a promotional video for one of the world’s largest software companies.

So we’re down to:
* Randal, 34, is the founder, president and CEO of his fifth venture “BCT Partners,” a multi-million dollar management, technology and policy consulting firm
* Rebecca, 23, was named “One of 20 Teens Who Will Change the World” by Teen People magazine in February 2000
* Alla, 31, a self-made multi-millionaire
* Felisha, 29, earned a B.S. in Aviation Human Factors and Systems from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University

Adam got canned for spending too much money on carriages. I missed last week because I ate too much turkey on Thanksgiving and I ended up getting up at 5:00am to go shopping at BestBuy. I think even though I missed last week’s advertisements, Trump would have approved of my ditching, for the greater cause of getting up first thing to shop at a previous week’s sponsor.

I’m not sorry to see Adam go. He simply was too young. The final four are pretty interesting. He was the least likely of the five to stick around.

I predict it to go down this way for the rest of the weeks:
Felisha
Rebecca
Alla and
Randal wins

I will say this about The Apprentice, I feel like they adhere to kicking out the person who most deserving person. I’ve been watching America’s Next Top Model and they seem to sometimes randomly kick people off. That makes for some interesting twists. But on the other hand, I hate to see non-deserving people get kicked off.

Sure enough, in the recap of last week, Carolyn thinks Felisha is in the bottom two with Adam.

Alla wanted Felisha to come back because she thinks she’s a stronger player. Maybe a little stronger. But Felisha is shocked and kicked in the teeth by the board room. It will be interesting to see if she can mentally recover.

Randal asks what people had to give up to come here. Alla is missing the 10th month of her child’s life. Randal is missing a month of his first year of marriage. Randal sounds very strong and secure with his position in the group.

The two teams meet at the NASDAQ MarketSite with 2 Microsoft executives: Janis and Dustin. Bill is standing in for George. Microsoft has a value of almost $300 Billion.

They are going to market Microsoft Live Meeting

They will make a 60 second video about the product.

Felisha will be the PM for Capital Edge… she feels she has a lot to prove. Rebecca becomes the PM for Excel for the same reason.

Microsoft as a sponsor is interesting to me in that they even feel the need to do this. They are pushing LiveMeeting… why? Are they afraid of Google Talk.

Felisha is struggling as project manager because Alla is so strong. Alla is pushing out in front of her constantly. Felisha is more concerned about being a star PM than making sure they win the task. That’s a guaranteed way to lose and make my prediction come true of Felisha going home. I can’t even really imagine how Rebecca and Randal could possibly lose. They are so in tune. If Rebecca weren’t such a poor judge of character, I would think she could be as strong as Randal.

Excel is at Microsoft planning their shoot. You can see Rebecca discussing her ideas with Randal. He is listening and understanding. They are great team mates. Their actor is no good. Randal stands in and does a great job… he has a lot of intensity and character.

Capital Edge is bickering. Felisha is insecure and can’t make decisions, as Alla says. Felisha thinks Alla is taking over the task. Felsha is tying Alla’s hands. She is holding back her strongest player. As a leader, you MUST realize when someone is stronger than you and let them go. Letting a stronger person lead is being a good leader. Holding them back shows your incompetence. By demanding that you always have complete control, especially when it is to the detriment of your objectives is childish, immature and, unfortunately, the norm in everyday business.

Capital Edge is editing their video. Felisha realizes that she must let Alla go. She realizes that this must be done in order to win. Alla is in control of the editing. It appears they are turning things around.

At Excel, they are now editing. Randal and Rebecca are staring in their own video. Carolyn seems receptive that they are acting in their own video. Carolyn likes the video because it tells a story. Carolyn has really hit on something there. Rebecca is concerned that Carolyn asked how long it took for them to edit their video. She wonders if Carolyn is saying something with that question. The “story” idea is crucial and foreshadowing. People remember stories. They don’t remember facts and figures. You can tell that the Capital Edge video is going to be all facts and no story. They will lose.

Today’s lesson: “Family”
Trump says family is very important. He says the people who are happiest are the ones that have a good family support system.

Rebecca hops in and leads the meeting. Being so confident with that broken foot really says something.

The executives see Excel’s video. It looks fun. Their response is, “interesting.”

C.E. Felisha and Alla come in, both wearing red tops and white pants. What’s that about? Felisha is wearing a scarf for a belt… she looks too good. They want to integrate emotion into this, as their goal. The executive again says, “interesting.” This commercial looks like a late night infomercial. It had a cheap look to it.

Janis, the executive, liked the story. Then they start in on Capital Edge’s video. They said they had a strong call to action. But they didn’t like all of the text.

Alla and Felisha look mentally beat.

Alla and Felisha are talking. Felisha is crying and says she has been to hell and back in her life. Alla does not relate to people who are negative. Alla doesn’t think Felisha is as strong a player. I agree.

Rebecca and Randal are going out on a cruise. They are met with their loved ones: Randal’s wife and Rebecca’s boyfriend, Matt. That kind of emotional recharge will give them an even stronger leg up. Alla is going to come off of a loss and will have to work harder than Rebecca and Randal to get to where they are emotionally. I feel she will be able to do it. She has a really strong perspective.

Here’s a real LiveMeeting commercial. It’s all positive. There is no pain in the commercial. It’s all positive. It’s all about feeling good.

Felisha and Randal are talking about how hard it will be to go into the boardroom with a friend. Felisha likes Alla. She says many good things about her. Alla is out to kill her. She says that if Felisha fights, she will destroy her. Trump will definitely like that mentality.

Trump say, “I know you hate to lose, Alla.” Bill said that Alla was difficult. Trump wants to know if Alla is difficult overall or just with Felisha. Alla points out that Felisha was holding her back. Carolyn says their was no leadership here. Trump says that Alla is difficult to manage. Alla was the director of the video and therefore was responsible for that. They ask who cut up the video and made it so choppy with too much text. Felisha says that Alla wanted all of that text. Oh oh. Alla is steamrolling Felisha. Felisha is crying. Trump says Felisha is not strong enough for New York. He says Alla definitely is. But Trump also fires Alla because she is difficult to manage and she directed a failure.

Bill says Felisha can’t lead and Alla can’t be lead.

Trump goes back to tell Randal and Rebecca that they are the final two.

My prediction is already wrong. It’s Randal and Rebecca.
