"It was a huge ass-kicking of exponential proportions." - Mark, on Excel's failure
Corporate New Deal
Needing to shake up the troubled Capital Edge, Carolyn called the corporations to the boardroom and shuffled the deck. Alla, Capital Edge's new project manager, was instructed to dump three players to Excel. She cut loose Jennifer M., Rebecca, and Marshawn. Josh, leading Excel, discarded Clay, Adam, and Markus. With the reorganization complete, Carolyn set the corporations to the task of creating an interactive sales event for Dick's Sporting Goods.
Despite knowing very little about golf, Capital Edge thought it was the hottest sport going and took a swing at increasing golf sales for their event. Excel played to their strength-James' knowledge of baseball--and built a diamond on the sales floor. When they added a batting cage, it hogged the space, but managed to attract a crowd. Unfortunately, it didn't result in many sales and Capital Edge won the task in a lopsided fashion.
Capital Edge jetted off to Montauk for a relaxing fishing cruise and a luxurious dinner. Excel slumped into the boardroom to face an angry Trump. Incredulous that their event had actually decreased sales, Trump slammed Excel for the worst defeat in boardroom history. He noted that Mark and James had fun with the kids but didn't sell a thing, while supposed sales queen Jennifer M. didn't do much better. Worst of all, Trump called Josh a "very ineffective leader." Shocking the embattled corporation, he fired all four of them, sending the bulk of Excel into unexpected exile.
