Interesting idea. . . but I can’t see Trump giving the choice to anyone else except himself. I’ve been hoping that Troy is coming back because it will have been discovered that the Amy/Nick win last week was bogus because their deal happened after the time limit. And that either Nick or Amy would be bounced while Troy was reunited with Kwame for a new competition. Otherwise, I can’t see why there would be TWO firings on this upcoming show.

This quote came from an interview with Troy . . . on television.

Is there even the slightest possibility that this means what I think it means? :eek:

BTW, the universal consensus seems to be that a)there is no way those guys walked in at the last second and made that ridiculous offer without “outside help,” b) even if they did, the paperwork would still have been completed after 7:00 p.m… Has any enterprising journalist dug into this yet? This show would be a lot less interesting if the fix were really in.

In other news, Omarosa’s return is, apparently, something she’s not so keen on.
