"(in the first triple firing (outside the interviews) Steven insists that he wants to be the next project manager. Lord Sugar on the other hand...) Lord Sugar: You're not going to be the next project manager because I think you are a lost cause in this process. Steven, you're fired. (Steven goes quiet and gets up to leave) Steven Ugoalah: Thank you Lord Sugar. (Steven leaves. Sarah and Ella Jade remain seated) Lord Sugar: Ella, I made you the project manager in a task which was the nearest to what you want to do with me when we go into business. And you failed. Ella-Jade Bitton: No... Lord Sugar: And it's an unforgivable... Ella-Jade Bitton: (thinking she is next to go) Please Lord Sugar... Lord Sugar: Sarah, there is no smoke without fire. The reason why people always make you the timekeeper is because people don't seem to have much confidence in you. And if people don't have much confidence in you, I'm wondering why I should have confidence in you as a business partner. (Sarah's face falls) Sarah, you're fired. Sarah Dales: (as she gets up to leave) Thank you for the opportunity. (Sarah leaves leaving Ella-Jade alone) Lord Sugar: I got to get on with this process with the candidates, some very, very good candidates that are left. Let's get rid of the no hopers, no chance. Don't waste my time. Ella-Jade Bitton: I understand that Lord Sugar. I have the absolute hunger to learn from this and improve... Lord Sugar: (paying little attention) Yeah... Ella Jade Bitton: I'm really passionate about this process. I will do my absolute ultimate aim to prove to you that I can be your business partner. Lord Sugar: Yeah, the thing is, I'm afraid to say... Ella Jade Bitton: Please Lord Sugar. Please... Lord Sugar: You do not have... Ella-Jade Bitton: I do. I promise you I do. Please let me stay... Lord Sugar: Ella... Ella-Jade Bitton: Please, let me... Lord Sugar: You're Fired. (Ella-Jade however refuses to leave) Ella-Jade Bitton: Please let me stay Lord Sugar... Lord Sugar: Yeah, I'm sorry. You are fired. I wish you well. (Ella-Jade starts to leave but refuses to give in and faces Lord Sugar one last time.) Ella-Jade Bitton: Please Lord Sugar, I promise you. I promise you I will learn from this. I promise you Lord Sugar. Lord Sugar: Yeah, there's no, I've made my decision okay? You're Fired. (Finally, Ella-Jade gives in and leaves the boardroom) Lord Sugar: (after the boardroom is empty) I've been in business long enough to work out the people who had no chance of becoming my business partner and those three certainly had no chance."
