Celebrity Apprentice Goes to the Mafia

2:11 pm Celebrity Apprentice, NBC, The Apprentice

Was it just me or was last nights Celebrity Apprentice one of the best episodes its had in awhile? I mean yes Vinny did quit, but it was all in culmination of what was one intense episode. It all began when Piers sent Vinny to be a “rat” and spy on the girls. Vinny took it like it was an assignment from a mafia leader and went all Sopranos on us. Actually the whole episode seemed to be Sopranos themed and it was mentioned almost every five minutes. The one thing that wasn’t played up very much is Tito’s absence. He basically got a free pass to the next round since he wasn’t there because of a fight. That little manoeuvre is just showing how somewhat generic the show is. They are obviously not filming it in a continuous manner and the celebrities aren’t always “wrapped into” the show.

Back to the “rat” storyline. So Vinny goes over to the girls and basically designs their product for them. It was a brilliant move on Vinny’s part as he now had control of both teams. If he would have told all the girls his plan right away, things would have been different. In the end Piers told the girls what Vinny was doing, basically screwing him over. This erupted into a tirade between Piers and Vinny which lasted into the boardroom. The girls finally won something (thanks to Vinny although they won’t admit it) and left as Vinny said he’d like to quit. Honestly it makes sense he would want to as he was being tortured in a way. Trump made it seem like Vinny was the one making the mistake and shouldn’t have helped the girls team, but rather help his own team. But Piers did the same thing and basically and was kind of praised for doing it. In the end Vinny decided to quit anyway, even though I think Piers still should have been cut for what he did. The show ended with a similar ending to the Sopranos and concluded the best episode the Apprentice has had in awhile. Next week it seems like Stephen Baldwin is upset about the “rat out” as well and well contemplates or does quit. Will he go through it out? We’ll have to wait and see!
