He showed this earlier in the series when he nearly fired her simply because he couldn't stand her personality. Last week on the cruise, she was a disaster, and only stayed because she was pitted against the lost cause Sayed.Looking at the other Irish blogs - <a href="http://conoroneill.com/2006/05/03/never-listen-to-a-word-i-say/" rel="nofollow">Conor</a> agrees with you, and so does <a href="http://planetpotato.blogs.com/planet_potato_an_irish_bl/2006/05/apprentice_fina.html" rel="nofollow">Potato</a>, who goes so far as to say "Ruth - she is so cute, I'm completely in love." I wonder if we are watching the same Ruth? Didn't you see her in the board room last week always trying to get the last word in, unprofessional and arguing childishly. Her interviews were terrible, but most crucially in the fact that half of Amstrad would walk out due to being unable to work with her. "Cute" is a word that I could only use to describe The Anti-Ruth.

There's just something about her that makes me want her to succeed. I don't trust that other woman at all at all. But The Badger - seems like a true case of what-you-see-is-what-you-get.I found the episode very exciting and surprising. I really thought Ansell had the best chance of winning the whole thing and was surprised that he was sent home. Paul - blech - a legend in his own mind. No surprises there with him. (He is absolutely suited to being a recruiter and I don't mean that as a compliment.)Should be exciting to see the big finale. I have to confess that I’m rooting for The Badger.
