The Apprentice

Started watching 'The Apprentice' now after reading the spoilers. On Monday night's episode
(Week 9), the two teams had to pick an emerging artist's work to showcase and whichever team sold the highest $$ value were safe, the other team would meet Donald Trump and his two advisors in the boardroom and one member of the team would be fired. They chose Meaghan, who's work they found confronting and a bit dark but who had her own following and who's work sold for around $4k a piece on average.

Versacorp, led by Nick, sold $13,000 of art while Protégé, led by Kwame, sold $869. Trump said Protégé got "creamed" because they made the mistake of not believing in what they were selling.
