The [Pepsi] Edge of Reason

Out in the lobby, Sandy rips into Andy and Jen for telling the fib that she didn't do anything. Andy stammers that all he did was answer who was more creative, which is not true. Asked what Sandy did, he credited her only for the label, which was bullshit, and he's not going to get out from under that comment. Even worse, he specifically claimed she took credit for other people's work by claiming to have worked on the game, which? Also not true. Trump ultimately gets Robin to send them all back in, and really, it's none too soon, because the lobby fight is not my favorite thing.

Take note of the fact that on the way back into the Boardroom, Jen is arranging her hair. Not just brushing it out of her eyes or anything, but rearranging the hair that's lying on her shoulder, so that just the right amount is in front of her and just the right amount is behind her. Yeah. You know the girl you thought she might be when she put the lip gloss on? She totally is. When they're back in the Boardroom, Trump asks her why she's always "sliding by." "How am I sliding by?" she asks rudely, in a tone that would be reprimanded -- and has been -- in male contestants in the past, but is allowed for Jen, for the same reason many things are allowed for Jen, which is, I suspect, her looks. Sad, but really, way of the world, especially with a guy like Trump. "Each week you slide by," Trump responds. "You mean I'm staying out of your final boardroom?" she asks. HA! Yeah. That's awesome, because that is so not what "sliding by" means. It means "you are still here, even though by all accounts, you DO NOT DO DICK." The idea that it means not going to the final table is something Jen raises unconsciously, in my opinion, because that's her strategy. Her strategy is centered around politicking with the PMs to avoid the final table, so when Trump asks her how she slides by, she thinks, "Oh, like how I avoid the final table?" Anyway, Trump, interested in this bit that she has volunteered, just says, "Maybe." Unsurprisingly, she claims that the sliding by happens because she's so awesome that PMs just never want to take her. Andy, enjoying his stroll through the Enchanted Forest of Jen, nods and says, "I agree with that," like he needs to hand Jen any more of his allotment of testicles than she's already holding.
