Watch The Apprentice: Season 11, Episode 8

"Bitter Suites"

Task scope: The teams must create a four-page pictorial and a advertising campaign for the Trump Hotel Collection.

Task sponsor: Trump Hotel

Backbone project manager: John Rich

A.S.A.P. project manager: Star Jones

Winning team: Backbone

Reasons for win: Although the judges didn't like either project, Backbone had a better sales pitch and a smaller list of errors.

Losing team: A.S.A.P.

Reason for loss: The judges felt that their presentation was too rehearsed and their information folder had multiple flaws with their graphics.

Sent to boardroom: Star Jones, La Toya Jackson, and NeNe Leakes

Fired: La Toya Jackson - though Trump did not feel she performed significantly better or worse on the task than the other team members, he took into account the sense among the women that La Toya was their overall weakest link and felt firing her would give the remaining A.S.A.P. members a fairer chance to compete against Backbone.
