An executive from Pedigree explains that each team will be creating a 30-second TV spot extolling the virtues of pet adoption. As he’s talking, there’s a great shot of Vincent Pastore looking more clueless than I’ve ever seen a person look. Trump makes each team choose a Project Manager – Team Empresario chooses Nely Galan and Team Hydra pick Gene Simmons. Trump asks Gene Simmons if he’s hitting on his opponents, which doesn’t even make sense. Like, hitting on them at that moment? Because to me it looked like he was standing there. Hitting on them during the tasks when he’s nowhere near his opponents? Still, Gene assures Trump that he is. Never mind that Gene’s idea of hitting on a woman is picking a groupie out of a crowd… Also, since there’s no money at stake, the winning project manager gets a flat $20,000 for their charity. That’s one-fifth of Hugh Hefner’s estimated hot dog donation.
