‘Apprentice’ turns
into a dogfight

Catfight turns dogfight
The struggles of Net Worth made the Craig-Kendra team little more than an interesting sideshow. Still, the world’s most dysfunctional winning team since Shaq and Kobe had their share of discord.

At least in previous weeks, there’s been a buffer between them. But Bren’s elimination last week left Alex as a one-man crew entering the new task, and Trump allowed him to pick his new teammate.

Before the selection, Tana asked Kendra if Alex was really mean enough to pick her and leave Kendra and Craig to fight it out amongst themselves.

Well, let’s see. Alex is a lawyer. He’s lost four times in a row. He knows that picking Tana leaves him one Magna implosion away from being among the final three hopefuls. She didn’t need to be Nostradamus to forecast that choice – even Carolyn noted later in the broadcast that "Kendra and Craig clash."

The two work together like oil and matches … one spark away from a big explosion. But while the task was filled with flare-ups, they somehow managed to keep from blowing up."

That’s particularly impressive, since Kendra trusted Craig enough that she seized control as project manager and did pretty much everything herself. As Craig pointed out, "The only time Kendra wants to know my point of view is so she can decide the opposite."

Fortunately for both, they won’t have to work together again. It’s officially every contestant for themselves starting now. For all practical purposes, however, that’s not much of a change for any of the final three.
