Sally accuses Omarosa of trying to manipulate the show by informing her fellow cast of how Dirty Laundry works. The rest of the cast sits in terror waiting for the other shoe to drop. With regard to the knife incident, Omarosa says she really feared for her safety. "Bull!" yells Janice. "You always blame the show's producers when you come off looking bad!" Omarosa snaps back by calling Janice a nutcase. But the highfalutin Apprentice star remains cool and defends herself; claiming that she's not two-faced - "The producers told me to act like that."

"My Fair Brady"

With Chris out of town and her best friend, Andrea in for the weekend, Adrianne gains a new sense of independence. She proclaims, "this is the weekend where I do whatever I want without somebody dictating to me and controlling my life." Her rebellion consists of buying a new car, a strict junk food diet and a good dose of man bashing. Adrianne is beginning to understand that maybe she really should move out, and then she can do whatever, whenever she pleases without Chris' constant criticism. Alone in paradise without his girl, Chris realizes he doesn't want Adrianne to move out of the house. He professes his newfound love and desire to commit. But will it be enough?
