Three people were fired in The Celebrity Apprentice 3 Episode 10. First Maria was sent home for talking about Curtis leaving the bathroom stinky. Curtis followed her right out after Bill Rancic decided he was just a one trick pony. Then Sharon Osbourne broke down crying. This brought us down to a final two of Bret Michaels and Holly Robinson Peete.
Bret Michaels wants that dolly track, but it’s not happening, so he’s planning on improvising instead. Is it really that critical?
Ivanka’s confused why Bret made the decision to do twice as much work as he needed to do. We’ll see how that works out as far as the time crunch goes.
Bret hops in the van to go to the edit place because he will be finishing up the work on the two commercials. He thinks he forgot something. Ah, it’s nothing. After about 20 minutes, he realizes he forgot the script he spent the day writing that he needs to actually finish the commercials.
One of Curtis’ best mates is getting married and is asking him to go to the dinner, so he will be bailing early.
Script or no script, Bret proceeds to edit the commercial anyway. He’s decided to drop that whole two commercial idea that was a waste of time to begin with. A confused Summer doesn’t get his funny commercial at all. Then she warns him there’s a launch event the next morning, not just a quick presentation.
The day of the event, Bret gets a surprise visit from his daughter Rain, the one who is borderline diabetic.
Both project managers give their presentations. Holly seems pretty comfortable. Bret stumbles at first but gets better as the presentation goes on. Once they’re done, Trump takes a poll. Seems Bret has the most support.
The executives give no indication of a clear favorite.
Since he did not win any money for charity, Darryl Strawberry will be getting $25,000 for the Darryl Strawberry Foundation for autism.
Unlike Bret’s commercial, which starred himself and Darryl, Holly missed the celebrity boat by not including anyone from her team.
Bret’s label was too dark, whereas the executives loved Holly’s label. Trump agrees. However, the inside of Holly’s brochure was just boring information, whereas Bret’s was fun. So they’ll call that one a draw.
Holly could sit on the Snapple board, while Bret has the personality of the Snapple target demographic.
Summer has a choice to make. Does she want her teammate to win, or does she want her friend to win? She will side with Bret because she worked hard for him, although she can’t say he’s a good project manager. He was decent. After they badger her for a while, she says he was good.
Based on her emotions, Joan Rivers supports Bret, despite Holly being better. Bill Rancic says that Holly was a stronger player. Rod Blagojevich wants Trump to keep Bret around because his daughter jumped into his arms.
The question everyone’s been asking for a while is whether Bret would be here tonight, and he is, against the orders of his doctors. Even Holly’s crying for her opponent. Unlike the rigged outcome last year where Joan and her bitter daughter hated Annie Duke (who should have won), this year these two actually like each other.
Holly says she’s not as mean as she seemed on the show.
Snapple has agreed to match the grand prize, so both charities will receive $250,000, regardless of the outcome.
Bret Michaels is The Celebrity Apprentice 3 winner.
The Celebrity Apprentice has been renewed for season 4 and will be back in midseason. Additionally, regular The Apprentice will be back in the fall.
