It's A Woman's World

Most of the women think Dennis is going, but Brande thinks it's Tom. Annie and Brande bet $5 (Annie's idea, of course). Trump asks Jesse what he'd do, and Jesse says, "Fire Dennis and Tom." Trump says, "Tom because he wasn't a very good leader?" Jesse says Tom didn't get up either, that he had to call and wake him up, and then asked him to wake up Dennis. Tom says he wasn't late -- that everyone had a specific task and they were taken care of. Ivanka says that everyone else did leave before Tom, and it seems like no one believes he was knocking for that period of time. She thinks there's a little bit of a scapegoat thing in that it's convenient that Dennis overslept. Dennis says he didn't oversleep; he just didn't answer the door. Trump doesn't understand that at all, which I like. He asks Dennis if he minds not being led, or if he minds being led. I don't get what he's asking, and neither does Dennis, because he responds with another question: "What do you want me to say?"

Trump asks Dennis if he were Trump, would he fire him or Tom? Dennis won't answer, but Trump asks him again, "Do I fire you, or do I fire Tom?" He points out Dennis was late and wouldn't listen to anybody, including Tom, and asks again who should he fire. Dennis says nothing, so Trump says it again, louder. Dennis says he wants to stay, so he's saying Tom. George says he'd like to say something about Tom. He says that when he was down in the store and asked him about Dennis, Tom was very protective and didn't seem at all concerned that Dennis wasn't there. Tom says he was concerned, but was told it was an infection. George says that Tom didn't say anything about knocking on the door, but just protected Dennis like it was okay. Tom says that whenever something negative happened in the past weeks, the team dwelled on it and he was trying to keep it positive. Trump asks what Dennis produced, and Tom says he did bring some money down, from his agent and several other people.

Trump asks if Tom brought money. He says he didn't, because he was organizing. Trump says he didn't organize very well. He says the store was decorated poorly, he didn't control Dennis (though Trump acknowledges that probably no one can control Dennis), and he didn't bring any money in. Tom tries to say he took a non-traditional approach. Trump repeats all the criticisms, and says Tom was a bad leader. Trump says Tom could have been fired last week, and now this week was even worse. He says that he did have a guy not show up, but that's also because of his bad leadership. Trump says that he thinks Jesse might be right, and he should fire both of them. He asks Clint who he'd fire. Clint agrees to fire both of them. He asks Brian, who says, "Tom. Period." Trump says Tom was a lousy project manager, and was lousy last week. He fires Tom, who says, "That's fine." Dennis is like, "That's it?" Trump tells them to all get out of there. He tells Dennis to please try a little harder. Dennis says, "I will try. I will try." The women say that was brutal, and Annie says she owes Brande five bucks. Tom gets in the wrong elevator, and the receptionist tells him it's the wrong one. He's not going back up.
