Team Analysis:

The two remaining members of my team, Maria Kanellis and Summer Sanders, served one purpose this week: eye candy. With Maria switching to team Rock Solid, it allowed both women to act as fitness instructors for their related teams. This move makes sense, considering Summer is an Olympic Gold Medalist and Maria, a WWE Diva. Although one could argue both women looked clueless in the gym.
What each team didn’t expect, were the only two remaining men to lose total concentration while watching the women’s workout routines. During practice, there was Curtis Stone flirting with Summer and Bret Michaels staring at Maria. One thing is for sure, Bret Michaels has no problem looking sketchy on TV. The episode quickly went from Team Rock Solid to Team Rock of Love, as Bret Michaels instructed Maria to perform the “tour bus thrust.” Maria sure didn’t seem to mind. Only time will tell how their relationship pans out.
The title “Celebrity Apprentice” doesn’t seem to fit either Maria or Summer. At least we can all agree, Bret is now a very happy man (per this episode only).

It’s tough to critize someone who raised as much money as Sharon did. She seems like an amazing person, and the spirit of the episode was carried by her and Holly’s hard work. I was really nervous I was about to lose one of my last two team members, but The Donald came through for me.
It appears Curtis works out every day. Dude is in shape. I guess that’s why all those female Biggest Loser contestants go ga-ga over him each time he makes an appearance to teach them how to cook. But next week it looks like he and Sharon battle somewhat (even though they’re on other teams).
This can’t end well. I cannot afford any kind of mutiny in the Team Von Kaiser locker room.
And I hope Bret Michaels recovers. My advice is to avoid any porcelain god moments from here on out.

I’m thoroughly disappointed. Why you ask? This was one of the few rounds where my team members weren’t lined up on the immediate chopping block. Sharon is possibly the most noteworthy competitor – I need her to be cut, and Trump decides not to fire anyone. Just my luck.
Bret Michaels completely and totally redeemed himself with a stellar, creative performance this round. Who knows, I may even try a few tour-bus-thrusts next time I’m at the gym.
Holly showed off her excellent fund-raising skills, but was quick to call out Sharon in the boardroom when she thought Sharon was getting the axe. It was a good move in theory, but when Donald announced no one was going to be cut, Holly switched gears hugging and laughing with Sharon, which I can only guess was her way of saying “Sharon, I was just kidding. Still friends, right?”. Wrong Holly, the princess of darkness now has her sights set on you. Locked and loaded.
Cyndi is once again absent the first day of the task. I am beginning to think this is to her advantage, as their is less time for her to screw something up. Let’s hope she just decides to just not show up entirely for the next 5 rounds.
