Yay – temporary henchman comes in and can tell immediately that Stacy is a waste of carbon. ---

Carolyn hates Stacy too. ---

Bye Stacy. Trump: “I really dislike Stacy.” ---

Hurray! For a second there I thought the three of them were _encouraging_ Stacey to speak more. ---

Hooray. Not only did she get fired, she got roasted on the way out. ---

Yes! And you can tell that this just came from a personal dislike that went much deeper than this one task. She just grated. ---

Let the joyous news be spread… the whiny midget witch is finally dead. Or fired, at least. Not that I’m wishing the cessation of her life or anything, just her career. Best. Firing. Ever. I’m loving me some Carolyn and Trump right now. ---

Wes was kind of inept as PM but he saved himself by having the sense (or the blind luck) to bring somebody into the BR that Trump was itching to fire anyway. ---

Second time I’ve noticed this. Trump will be talking and his voice will change, and they won’t show him talking at all, but just whoever is in the boardroom, and they don’t look like they’re reacting to what he’s saying. They might be doing a voice over. Maybe Trump thought of more he should’ve said, then edited it in? ---

Yay, Carolyn finally shows some balls! Trump was willing to toy with Stacy for a bit, but Carolyn gave her the smackdown. 🆒 Ignoring Wes’ handshake? “I’m sorry to hear that”? _Classy_. ---

“Trump should have gotten to know me”? WTF ever, Stacy ---

Even in the cab she didn’t get it. She still couldn’t accept any responsibility, which is exactly why Trump hated her. Some of these losers really need their cabs to drop them off at the Clue Motel for a few weeks. ---

With the other Jen and Stacy both gone now, we have only Maria and Elizabeth to unload. Strangely, Ivana hasn’t been annoying for the last couple of weeks. I’m sure she’ll come back strong sooner or later, though. ---

But it is painfully obvious when they do it. ---

Whatever happened to listen and learn something? ---

Okay, this may be a stupid question, but …what was up with losing the phone? They seemed to figure it out nearly as the cab was pulling away. Why didn’t they just CALL IT? Or use that fancy paging thing they always do? Couldn’t they do that before the cabbie gets another customer and ask him to drive it back for a tip or something? I don’t understand why they just said “Eh, gone forever.” It’s a damn phone, that’s the point of it - communicating with the person who has it.
