James: "It was obviously not personal."
Nicole: "I have no concept of that because I am desperation personified."
James: "Seriously, your enthusiasm and skill set are admirable but they overlap with Tim's."
Nicole: "This is because you think I'm not as pretty as Stefani!"
James: "Fucking what?"
Nicole: "This is because you think I'm weak! But I am not weak! I will rise like a phoenix from the flames! To gain your approval and/or score some nasty imaginary point! And then you will feel quite small!"
James: "Nicole, I am literally telling you to your stupid horse face that you and Tim have won the last eighteen tasks for us. I am literally giving you credit for that, out loud, in front of everybody. Why are you being a jerk?"
Nicole: "Stop saying I'm useless!"
James: "Nicole, please get reality or go sit at the kids' table."
Nicole: "That's fine, that's fine, there's no point in talking about it."
James: "Um, I know. You're the one talking about it."
Nicole: "Stop trying to break up me and my boyfriend!"

Nicole, in interview: "James must think I'm weak in some point [sic and the hell?] and I wanna win, and just prove to James, 'You made the biggest mistake you've ever made in your entire life, just watch, and James, you'll be fired on the next one for firing me. You made a dumb mistake.'" Way to, um, make that point. "Trump's going to destroy you for not doing anything to me personally, because I am such a martyr that I will it so!" I mean... This is why you have to take really good care of your daughters. This is a woman whose entire sense of self is based on questionable things, in that anybody on this show has some issues there, but also on the fact that she seems unable to express herself without lying about everything, changing her inner monologue around as she sees new ground to pity herself about, and depends on literally every man in the room to tell her who and where she is. Maybe nothing very bad has happened to her, in that she's never even had to go looking for Nicole, or maybe that's the bad thing happening and it's her whole life. I don't know. I know I want to stay far away from her.
