User blog:Epic~00/The Wiki Apprentice Episode 1 (Part 4)

The next morning, all the candidates wait outside the door. From the entrance to the door to the couch left to right standing up are Freddie, Izzy, Berry, Welly, and Flurry. From left to right sitting on the couch are VUF, Scarlett, Derpy, Darules, Tyler, Caitlin, and Twitty. From the right of the couch to a water cooler is Ariel, Brady, James, and Richard.

Mughees: You can go through to the boardroom.

The 16 candidates enter the boardroom. On one side from left to right sits Derpy, Berry, Ariel, and VUF. Left to right standing up on that same side are Welly, Darules, Scarlett, and Welly. On the other side from left to right sits James, Freddie, Richard, and Caitlin. Standing up from left to right are Twitty, Flurry, Brady, and Tyler. Waiting for Lord Epic to arrive on the left sits Dip, and on the right sits Stryzzar. Lord Epic enters to greet the candidates after a couple of seconds.

Lord Epic: Good morning.

All candidates: Good morning, Lord Epic.

Lord Epic: So, Welly, I see you’ve taken up project manager position?

Welly: Yes, Lord Epic. I think I worked really well and managed the team well, and this challenge has made me super sto-

Lord Epic: Alright, slow down. It was a yes or no question.

Welly: *embarrassed look*

Lord Epic: I learned that you came up with a team name?

Welly: We came up with Team Triumph.

Lord Epic: Who’s idea was that?

Scarlett: *raises hand*

Lord Epic: Scarlett. Okay. *to the rest of the team* So Welly, good project manager?

Derpy: He was kind of a mixed bag to be completely honest, Lord Epic.

Lord Epic: Mixed bag? What do you mean?

Scarlett: He was great at motivating us and telling us where to go and what to do, but he had to make himself the center of attention. If we had a problem with a decision, he’d give us the reasoning that he’s project manager and we just have to listen to what he says.

Welly: I’d just like to say, Lord Epic, I’m a little disappointed in what I’m hearing. I thought we worked very well as a team, and I thought I did things perfect.

Lord Epic: Perfect?

Welly: Yes, perfect.

Lord Epic: …Are you serious? Here’s Scarlett giving a whole speech about fundamental problems with you, and you think you’re perfect. I mean, you certainly have good qualities, but perfect is a strong word, don’t you think?

Welly: Everyone has an opinion.

Lord Epic: *sniggers* Least of all you. *annoyed sigh* Alright, move on. Now, I’ve been told by Dip over here that you actually didn’t even sell the hot dogs until later in the afternoon?

Derpy: We tried going for more expensive gourmet products.

Lord Epic: No normal hot dogs?

Derpy: No normal hot dogs. We got some more unique ingredients, such as non-pasteurised cow milk, green apple juice.

Lord Epic: On a hot dog?

Derpy: Yes.

Dip: *to Lord Epic* Now, they sold these pretty well, but the actual product? Atrocious. People paid for them, but I could see from a distance the hot dogs being thrown into the garbage.

Lord Epic: I wouldn’t really expect so-called professional sellers to be making an error like this. When you see what I could call disgusting flavors, you don’t add them. It’s your decision.

Dip: I have to be frank with you, Epic. Scarlett mentioned multiple times that these hot dogs were not up to scratch, but Welly mentioned that just because he’s project manager, no-one else can have a say. I could tell from his body language though that he was just not comfortable with Derpy’s idea.

Lord Epic: What’s the matter with you, Welly? You didn’t listen to Scarlett, you went along with a plan you didn’t like that was Derpy’s idea, and you just wouldn’t listen. What gives?

Welly: I just thought my confidence would prevail and-

Lord Epic: Confidence? Cockiness is what I call that. *sigh* I’ve heard enough of your side. What happened with your sub-team? I’ve heard that VUF was the sub-team leader?

VUF: That’s correct, Lord Epic. My sub-team and I sold various products and used a tactic with the t-shirts when we were nearly out of time to actually sell them to Phoenix.

Lord Epic: How much?

VUF: $68.

Lord Epic: For how many?

VUF: 8.

Lord Epic: Hmm, not bad.

Ariel: We also managed to sell some balloons for $230

Lord Epic: Wow. That’s pretty good. Alright, now moving on.

Lord Epic: *to other side* Alright. Team 2. Richard, you were project manager?

Richard: Yes, Lord Epic!

Lord Epic: Team name?

Richard: Team Dynamo.

Lord Epic: Alright, who’s idea was that?

Flurry: That was mine, Lord Epic.

Lord Epic: Alright, so, Richard? Good project manager?

James: Well, we thought he was at first because we had high hopes for him, but when the task started… bad.

Freddie: He didn’t give us any proper direction, and I found him horrible to work for. I led the task more than him. Most of the stuff my sub-team did was without any guidance from him, and we did amazing.

Richard: I’m very disappointed to hear this, Lord Epic! I’m absolutely shocked! I thought everyone was really supporting me and they should know that they’ve just lost a friend!

Lord Epic: A friend? Friend isn’t a word to describe this. We’re not playing Ring around the Rosy, Richard.

Richard: *nods nervously*

Lord Epic: Alright, tell me how things went.

Richard: Well, we had a brainstorm and-

Freddie: It went terribly, Lord Epic.

Richard: Excuse me, Freddie! I’m not finished my sentence!

Lord Epic: Hold on, Richard. Let me just hear what made the brainstorm so terrible. Freddie?

Freddie: Instead of hearing much input from us, Richard just went ahead and came up with stuff that we were forced to follow, and also wouldn’t let us tell him what we’d be best at. I could tell that he was by far, the worst in the task.

Lord Epic: This is hard to really hear. Okay, Richard, go on.

Richard: Yes! Before I was rudely interrupted!

Lord Epic: Oh, quit the crybaby stuff and get on with it.

Richard: Yes, Lord Epic! Okay, so I split the team in half, and I went with Tyler, Flurry, and Brady, and Freddie went with Twitty, Caitlin, and James. And I split things down the middle, randomly picking.

Lord Epic: *sniggers* You… randomly picked?

Richard: Yes.

Lord Epic: And you split things down the middle, like, physically split things down the middle looking at where everyone was sitting in the meeting.

Richard: *nods*

Brady: I just want to say, Lord Epic, that there was no proper strategy from Richard, and I wasn’t even that good at making the coffee he asked me to make.

Lord Epic: So who did what?

Richard: My half went across town, and we sold coffee to some thirsty customers! I had Flurry, Tyler, and Brady make the coffees while I took the orders.

Lord Epic: And how long were you selling coffees?

Richard: From the morning to the afternoon.

Flurry: *shakes head* We could have left earlier since we earned enough money from the coffees and the more sold the better, but SOMEBODY wanted us to stay making coffees just because they were project manager.

Richard: Excuse me, Flurry! Let me finish my recap, please!

Flurry: Whatever.

Lord Epic: What did your half do after the coffees, Richard?

Richard: I decided to see where I could sell our bucket and I went to a sock shop!

Lord Epic: …I beg your pardon?

Richard: I thought because of my experience with socks that I could talk the sock sellers into me selling the cleaning bucket for $250!

Lord Epic: And did you?

Richard: No, Lord Epic. They didn’t really like my product, they said their socks were fine and didn’t need cleaning!

Lord Epic: (sarcastically) Big surprise. Okay, Freddie, I’ve heard you took up the sub-team leader position?

Freddie: Yes, Lord Epic. I feel I can manage people well, and I was able to with Caitlin, Twitty, and James.

Lord Epic: And where did the four of you go?

Freddie: We went to Phoenix and asked him to create a t-shirt for us called #Wiki, and we all liked the idea. He told us to come back in a couple of hours, and we said we would.

Lord Epic: From what I’ve heard, Freddie, you lost track of the time and forgot to even go back for them.

Freddie: *nods* In my defense, I needed proper direction from Richard, and he was not giving us any proper direction at all.

Richard: *confused look*

Lord Epic: *sighs* That’s disappointing. What else?

Freddie: We carried our sacks of potatoes to a cooking shop run by esteemed Fire Eater, and pitched it to him.

Lord Epic: And who pitched that?

Caitlin: *raises hand* That was me, Lord Epic.

Freddie: I have to say personally that out of the three I was working with, Caitlin was the weak link.

Caitlin: What are you on about?!

Freddie: He was forcing a price of $20.50 and when he lowered that to $19.50, and then $18. Fire decided he didn’t want our potatoes, so I had to step in and lower it much more to $6 and he only barely accepted.

Caitlin: He would’ve accepted if you just gave me more time!

Freddie: No, no. Don’t me saying that to me! I gave you a good amount of time to sell those potatoes to Fire Eater, and he was looking terrified of you. Twitty and James didn’t look too happy with your pitch either.

Lord Epic: Freddie, Freddie. I’m not wanting to hear any arguments. I want to be told what it is your sub-team actually did.

Freddie: Ok, sorry, Lord Epic. Instead of selling hot dogs on the street since we missed the good opportunity at lunchtime, we decided to sell them to a hot dog shop to improve their stock, and I managed to sell it to them for $178.

Welly: *nervous look*

Freddie: Then, unfortunately, we only had five minutes left and could not retrieve the t-shirts in time.

Lord Epic: And what about the flowers?

Richard: I told Freddie to sell those.

Freddie: Uh, oh yeah, I, uh, forgot.

Derpy: *grin*

Izzy: *laughs to himself*

Lord Epic: *nods* *sighs* Alright, I’ve heard enough. I think now it’s time to see where the money lies.

Brady: *eyes widen in anticipation*

Ariel: *closes eyes nervously*

Scarlett: *waits patiently*

Welly: *crosses fingers*

Lord Epic: Dip, could you tell me how things went for Team Dynamo?

Dip: Well, Welly and his sub-team had sold out with the hot dogs, and did pretty good with the flowers and lemons, giving his sub-team a total of $311.

Welly: *nods with a straight face*

Dip: And VUF and his sub-team made a profit of $398, giving Team Ferocity a total of $709.

Lord Epic: Okay, Stryzzar, what about you?

Stryzzar: Okay, well, Freddie’s sub-team managed to pull in $284.

Freddie: *widened eyes*

Stryzzar: And Richard’s sub-team… only spent time selling just coffee, giving them a profit of $200, meaning the total… not as good. $484.

Welly: *surprised smile*

Lord Epic: Wow. Well done, Ferocity. That’s not even a close difference. You won by $225. Poor organization, now that cost you by a lot.

Freddie: *puts hands over face in annoyance*

Flurry: *shakes head*

Lord Epic: Okay, Ferocity, it’s been the first task, and I know how all of you still have to get used to things, but as a reward, I’m sending you to Restaurant Wiki, a restaurant located on the highest point in Wikiland. There you can admire the sights, there’s wine, desserts, and gourmet foods of your choice.

Berry: *waves fist in happiness*

Welly shakes hands with VUF, Derpy, and Ariel.

Izzy: *pats Welly on the back*

Lord Epic: So, off you go, well done, and enjoy.

Team Ferocity: Thank you, Lord Epic.

Welly, Darules, Izzy, Derpy, Berry, Ariel, VUF, and Scarlett exit the boardroom.

Welly: *cheers* Hah, well done, guys!

Darules and Berry: *high-five*

Izzy: I told you guys they were going down. Good job.

Team Ferocity leave Lord Epic’s headquarters.

In the boardroom is all of Team Dynamo, with nervous, annoyed, or upset looks.

Lord Epic: Well, Dynamo. Not your best performance. Bad start. I’m going to send you off now to the café across the road, and when you come back later, we can discuss this in far more detail where at least one of you will be leaving, okay?

Team Dynamo: Thank you, Lord Epic.

Team Dynamo leave the boardroom.

Meanwhile in Restaurant Wiki is Team Ferocity.

Darules: Woo! *stands on table* I’m Cody of the world!

Welly: Great job today, team. We earned that well.

Izzy: We made the most profit so I think we did a great job.

Berry: Yeah, good job, you guys.

Welly: …Well I was project managing the task.

Izzy: *laughs* But you weren’t the best.

Welly: *restrained glare*

Ariel: Okay, guys, enough arguments. Point is, we won. We can learn from mistakes, enjoy the view, and beat them again tomorrow. *laughs* Cheers. *raises wine glass*

Rest of the team: *taps glasses*

Meanwhile in the café sits Team Dynamo. Flurry and Tyler begrudgingly drink their coffee.

Richard: I know one person who I’m definitely bringing back! *stares at Freddie*

Freddie: Whatever. The blame is you. You didn’t instruct us properly at all, and that’s why we lost.

Richard: I put my neck on the line, I guided all of you, and I worked my damn hardest!

James: *to camera* Looking back, I don’t think I stood out as much as others in this task as I hoped I would, but with that said, Richard was a real bad problem. I wasn’t working with him though, and I think the blame is on Caitlin for not being a positive team member.

Freddie: *to camera* If Richard brings me back into the boardroom, then that’s fine. I’ll fight my way to get further.

Brady: *nervously drinks coffee*

Back at Lord Epic’s headquarters sitting left to right are Freddie, Richard, Brady, Flurry, Twitty, Caitlin, James, and Tyler.

Mughees: *answers phone* Yes, Lord Epic.

Lord Epic: Please send the candidates in.

Mughees: Yes, Lord Epic. *to Team Dynamo* You can go through to the boardroom now.

Team Dynamo enters the boardroom. Sitting left to right on one side are Brady, Tyler, Flurry, and Richard. Sitting left to right on the other side are James, Caitlin, Twitty, and Freddie.

Lord Epic: Well, Richard, you want to tell me what went wrong in the task.

Richard: Certainly, Lord Epic! My sub-team were absolutely fine, and we earned much more money than Freddie’s sub-team, and his team are much more at fault!

Freddie: That’s not true at all. We would have earned much more money had Richard given us more guidance than we got.

Richard: You were still really poor at performance though, and it’s not something I’d want from a sub-team leader!

Flurry: You were bad too, Richard! You were bad too.

Stryzzar: I have to tell you, Epic, it was hard for me to be following Richard’s sub-team around. He says Freddie’s did a poor job, but his decisions were mistakes after mistakes after mistakes.

Lord Epic: *nods*

Lord Epic: Now, another thing troubling me is the potatoes. Caitlin, mind filling me in on what was going on there?

Caitlin: Yes, Lord Epic. Freddie, Twitty, James, and I entered Fire Eater’s restaurant and I asked immediately for him to give us the potatoes for $20.50.

Lord Epic: How did she come across, Freddie?

Freddie: Forceful, slightly terrifying, and a bit too pushy.

Caitlin: I was just cutting to the chase. We couldn’t be wasting time being nice to the owner. We had to negotiate the money immediately, and I wanted to show what I was capable of and how much I cared for a high price for the potatoes.

Freddie: But you didn’t prove it. The prices you were saying would be too high regardless! All I could do was do a smaller price. You can’t be telling me that what you were doing was right!

Lord Epic: This is something I really don’t understand. I hear this stuff Freddie and Caitlin did in the task, whether it be right or wrong, but James, Twitty, what were you two even doing?

Twitty: Well I was advising Caitlin not to be forceful with the negotiation. I helped with the sausage price.

Lord Epic: Did he, Freddie?

Freddie: Yes he did. Twitty helped me reach the money of $178 for the hot dogs by doing much better negotiation I saw Caitlin doing.

Lord Epic: And what about James?

Freddie: Well, uh, he helped positively support us, he agreed with what I was saying.

Lord Epic: I mean actual work. James, you do anything?

James: *shakes head nervously* I, uh, tried my best, but the complete organization of the task was stopping me in my tracks a little.

Stryzzar: Everyone else was pitching in despite any mix up in organization. What were you doing?

Lord Epic: Sounds to me like you were hiding a little, James.

James: I apologize for that, Lord Epic. I’ll try not to come off like that again. I’ll work hard for you and my team, and it won’t happen again.

Lord Epic: It better not happen again. Tyler, you’re being awfully silent. Who do you think is responsible for the failure of this task?

Tyler: I don’t like pinning the blame too much, but it has to be Richard for not giving our sub-team proper guidance.

Lord Epic: Flurry, I got reports back that you were pretty negative throughout the task, and you were pointing out Richard’s flaws.

Flurry: I had to, Lord Epic. I sold plenty of coffee, but Richard was being so forceful that it was hard to concentrate.

Lord Epic: And what do you think is responsible for the failure of the task?

Flurry: It is hard to say, Lord Epic. The managerial qualities were tough in both sub-teams, and a few people didn’t work too hard in the task, while I was working very hard.

Lord Epic: So managerial qualities and lack of hard work?

Flurry: Yes. Poor management and poor work.

Lord Epic: You could’ve told me that instead of saying what sounds like a novella you’d be writing, understood?

Flurry: *nods*

Lord Epic: Brady, you were also pretty silent in the task. In fact, you were slowest at coffees.

Brady: I’m sorry about that, Lord Epic. I worked really hard, I don’t like to speak too much when tension is involved.

Lord Epic: So who do you think is responsible for the failure of the task?

Brady: I worked with him all day, and it has to be Richard.

Richard: *glares at Brady*

Lord Epic: Alright, I’ve heard enough. This task was clearly a mess. Richard, which two people are you bringing back into the boardroom that you believe are responsible for the failure of this task.

Richard:*to Lord Epic* It’s hard I have to say, but I think I know which two people. I’m going to brick back Caitlin for poor negotiation…

Caitlin: *mouth open in shock*

Richard: I’m also bringing Freddie back into the boardroom.

Freddie: *rolls eyes*

Lord Epic: Alright. Dynamo, go back to the house. As far as I’m concerned, you’re all a mess.

James, Tyler, Brady, Twitty, and Flurry: Thank you, Lord Epic.

Lord Epic: *to Richard, Caitlin, and Freddie* As for the three of you I will call you back shortly, alright?

Team Dynamo leave the boardroom. James, Tyler, Brady, Twitty, and Flurry leave the boardroom, grab their suitcases and go back to the house, while Caitlin, Richard, and Freddie sit on three separate sides of the couch.

Lord Epic: *to Dip and Stryzzar* Richard was the project manager, and not only was he giving wrong directions, but he just wouldn’t stop making mistakes.

Richard: *sitting* *looks down steadily*

Lord Epic: *to Dip and Stryzzar* I get the feeling Caitlin was an uncomfortable person to work with in her sub-team. A person I’m hiring needs to be much less forceful, and she needs to learn from that if she even expects to stay.

Caitlin: *arms folded* *slightly upset*

Lord Epic: *to Dip and Stryzzar* Freddie tried to manage a sub-team, but time was just getting the best of him.

Phone rings, Mughees picks it up.

Lord Epic: *to Mughees* Could you send the three of them in here, please?

Mughees: Yes, Lord Epic. *to Richard, Caitlin, and Freddie* Lord Sugar will see you now.

Richard, Caitlin, and Freddie walk into the boardroom. Sitting left to right are Caitlin, Richard, and Freddie.

Lord Epic: Okay, Richard. Tell me why you brought Caitlin back into the boardroom.

Richard: Caitlin wasn’t being a mature business person. The other sub-team weren’t that good, and she was partly one of the reasons because she was pushing sales too much!

Caitlin: I’m appalled that I’m hearing this, Lord Epic. I worked harder than anyone else on my sub-team and-

Freddie: You worked the hardest? I managed us, and I stopped you from the potato fiasco.

Caitlin: Let me finish, Freddie. You can’t be letting me be taking this from you. For Richard to bring me in without seeing how hard I worked is just annoying.

Richard: People on your sub-team already complained about you! It is the right decision to bring you in because your bad decisiveness puts you behind others!

Lord Epic: Okay, I’ve heard enough about Caitlin here. Get on with it. Richard, why did you bring Freddie back into the boardroom?

Richard: I believe Freddie as a sub-team leader didn’t contribute much to the task! He was bad with time at getting the t-shirts, and he only got potatoes for $6.

Freddie: That’s completely not true! You were the project manager so by the time 5 minutes were up, you should have just called me and asked. The time wasn’t my main goal.

Stryzzar: But it is an obvious thing to keep track of, isn’t it, Freddie…?

Richard: The whole task can’t be up to me, Freddie! I made the decisions, but I was busy with my own job.

Freddie: But the point of a project manager is to keep everyone organized. If I was PM, I would’ve done a much better job than you, Richard, and you did not do a good job. Everyone said so, so why do you think you should even stay here?!

Richard: I put my neck on the line, I worked really hard, and we only did a bad job because I was stressed over other’s incompetence!

Lord Epic: I do not understand that, Richard. You were not working with either of these people, so how in the world would they have stressed you out?

Richard: I meant my sub-team, Lord Epic.

Lord Epic: Your sub-team stressed you out?! If they stressed you out, why didn’t you just bring one or two of them in?

Richard: Lord Epic, I-

Lord Epic: I’ve heard enough about how good you are, Richard. I just have to ask, between the two you brought in, who do you think should be fired?

Richard: Based on this task, I wanted to show my skills, and my work, that outclassed others on bigger levels.

Lord Epic: Where’s the name? I can’t hear any name.

Dip: Richard, if you spent less time covering your ass, and more time answering a question, you might give some names!

Lord Epic: *nods*

Richard: I think the problem with the task lies firmly with Freddie! We could’ve beat the team had we actually sold the t-shirts.

Freddie: That’s not why we lost! They beat us by a ton of money, and you spent most of the day with the coffee, and you wasted time with going to a sock shop to sell your cleaning bucket to when you could’ve earned a load of money for that bucket elsewhere.

Richard: This is what I’m talking about, Lord Epic! Freddie makes everything about himself and-

Freddie: How? I co-operated with my entire sub-team, while you were yelling at yours!

Lord Epic: Okay, gentleman, I’ve heard enough of your constant bickering. *annoyed sigh* Let me move on. Caitlin, who do you think is responsible for the failure of the task?

Caitlin: I think the blame is on Richard as a project manager. He didn’t manage us well, he randomly put us in positions we weren’t too good at, and I wouldn’t expect that from a project manager.

Richard: Why don’t you try being project manager for once, Caitlin?!

Lord Epic: Richard, please just let people talk, and I have to politely say to you, “Shut the hell up!”

Richard: *nervous look*

Lord Epic: Freddie, I think it’s obvious who you think is responsible.

Freddie: Richard.

Richard: *shakes his head*

Lord Epic: I’ve heard enough. I want to talk, and no-one else.

Freddie: *mouth open in worry*

Lord Epic: Richard, you were the project manager of a task that you were beaten easily in. You wasted time in a sock shop, sold coffee to uninterested customers, and gave the team wrong directions, meaning it can be argued the task can firmly be placed on you.

Richard: *closes eyes in worry*

Lord Epic: Caitlin, you’re very enthusiastic, but forceful negotiations… unforgiveable. Someone with your caliber with negotiation seem like they may not be fit for the process. And I don’t know how much longer I can really keep you.

Caitlin: Lord Epic, I-

Lord Epic: *to Caitlin* No I don’t want to hear any more from you.

Caitlin: *closes mouth*

Lord Epic: Freddie, you are also very enthusiastic, and it seems like your sub-team thought you were a friendly and co-operative person, not to mention you fixed an error by Caitlin, not to mention you sold hot dogs at a good price.

Freddie: *nods*

Lord Epic: But what frustrates me most, Freddie, is that you were too easily distracted on you being a perfectionist that you missed so much time that you could have solved without Richard’s assistance, meaning you were a little lazy and behind.

Freddie: *rubs nervous sweat on face*

Lord Epic: It is very tough. First task after all. Caitlin, unlike any other performer here, you’re just not cut out for business is what it would seem, which is a shame judging by the enthusiasm I sensed in your application.

Caitlin: *clenches teeth*

Lord Epic: But I’ve made up my decision, and I have to be frank with it. Richard, I don’t know if I can keep someone any longer in this process if they make all of these errors. While I admire you wanting to be PM, you just couldn’t do it properly, and on that basis, Richard…

Richard: *prepared to open mouth*

Lord Epic: *points finger* You’re fired.

Richard: *sighs* Thank you, Lord Epic! *walks off* *crashes into door* *leaves boardroom* *waits at couch*

Caitlin and Freddie: *sit*

Lord Epic: Now I’ve mentioned before that I may decide to dispose of more than one of you from time to time.

Caitlin and Freddie: *nervous*

Lord Epic: But, it is the first task, so I’ll give both of you the benefit of the doubt. Go back to the house.

Caitlin and Freddie: Thank you, Lord Epic.

Caitlin and Freddie leave the boardroom. Neither shake hands with Richard to say goodbye, and leave with their suitcases. He remains sitting on the couch, ready to leave.

Lord Epic: *to Dip and Stryzzar* I had to give them a chance. There are some interesting tasks, and I have to see if the two of them are even up for them.

Dip and Stryzzar: *nod*

Richard exits the headquarters, and enters his car home.

Richard: I am pretty angry I was fired first! But I think like a lot of people I can handle it pretty well! I think I’ll do great in wiki business! *kicks seat* *sobs like a baby*

Back at the house awaits the 16 other candidates, awaiting who is coming back from the three. Darules is lying down on the carpet like a dog, Izzy, Derpy, Twitty, and Tyler are drinking wine, Berry, Ariel, Welly, VUF, and Scarlett are enjoying chocolate, Brady, Flurry, and James are sitting by the fireplace.

Izzy: *to Twitty* Who do you think is staying?

Twitty: I think Freddie will definitely come back.

James, Tyler, and Brady: Yeah.

VUF: Who do you guys think is going?

Darules: Spiderman.

Flurry: *to VUF* I think Richard is definitely to blame, and I think he should be going.

James: I think Caitlin could be going.

Freddie opens the door, followed by Caitlin.

Everyone: *cheers*

Freddie: *high-fives Brady, James, Derpy, and Scarlett*

Berry: So how was it?

Caitlin: It was one of the toughest experiences we had to go through, but at least now I can win.

Derpy: Yeah, you wish.

Everyone else besides Caitlin: *laughs*

Caitlin: *slight glare at Derpy*

Narrator: Now… 15 candidates remain. Lord Epic’s search for his next business partner… continues.

15 candidates are seen staring at a computer

Narrator: Next time…

Lord Epic: *on computer screen* Your next task is going to all about technology. Prepare to go global.

VUF: *shakes head nervously*

Narrator: The teams get app creative.

Berry: *into microphone* Meow.

Derpy and Izzy: *laugh at Berry*

Freddie: *fake mustache* *to James and Tyler* Talley-ho, lads!

Narrator: In a 21st century task…

Twitty: *shows Flurry phone* 50 downloads already.

Narrator: Blaring tension brews.

Caitlin: *in car* *to Freddie* Shut up!

James: *facepalms next to them*

Derpy: Berry, can I just say something?

Berry: No.

Derpy: *shrugs shoulders angrily*

Narrator: And in the boardroom…

Lord Epic: You’ve lost. And I don’t know how.

Narrator: Someone’s wires get crossed…

Lord Epic: You’re a complete disaster, and on that basis, *points finger* You’re fired.
