In the second episode of The Apprentice the boys didn't tell the girls the phone call had come through and cheekily left them in bed. They had just 20 minutes to leave the house when they finally woke up. The two teams, boys v girls, had two days to research, design, make and present a new children's toy. The girls chose Lindsay as their team leader she was determined to choose a toy she had invented. Secret Signals were cards for children to make semaphore signals. She even imposed it on the rest after both the team and a group of children had voted it down. Raj was chosen as Impact project manager as he had some experince in this field. First Forte wasted a lot of time on another toy, a robot, that may well have won if Lindsay had not enforced her preference on the others. The boys developed an electronic game. Both teams presented their games to senior executives at a games company who recommended the boys' game should win. Sir Alan agreed with them and declared the boys the winners. They went off clay pigeon shooting. The girls had a coffee at a transport café before returning to see who would be fired. Lindsay chose Miriam and Adele to join her for the final showdown with Sir Alan. Alan questioned them all about who should be fired Miriam and Adele both stated Lindsay while she picked Adele. Sugar questioned Miriam loyaltys: she did not give her thoughts on the Robot or Secret Signals remaing "fifty-fifty while Adele is questioned about what she did at all and asked to step up to Project Manager in the near future. Alan Sugar could not forgive Lindsay for neglecting all the feedback and blamed Adele and Miriam beahivor on her. Lindsay was fired. In her taxi home, she later confess that she brought Miriam into the boardroom to 'gang up' against Adele the 'weak' link.
