The Apprentice Asia — Season 1, Episode 5: One Befuddled Nash; One Distrusted Sam; and Winners and Losers

Episode synopsis

Starting off with a swop of teams, the contestants embark on what might just be their most challenging task yet – as summed up by Tony Fernandes at the beginning of the episode, “To be my Apprentice, you need a high level of business acumen, and that includes managing risks, and making sound investment decisions, often under tremendous pressure.” Apex’s members are now: Alex, Sam, Celina and Nik. The Mavericks’ members are now: Jon, Nash, Andrea and Dian. Celina was happy about the shuffle, saying, “I think men are much more driven. They spend less time talking and go straight to the point.” (Ironic, given how much she herself talks!) This week, teams were tasked with online trading, using US$20,000 of virtual money. Over 24 hours, the team with bigger profits would win.
