(Special time following a 2-hour Deal Or No Deal)
The final five candidates are challenged to create an in-store home theater display at Wal-Mart for customers to demo the Microsoft Xbox 360 videogame console. The display will highlight the game system's features, within a fully accessorized environment, for the digital entertainment lifestyle. The teams are challenged to demonstrate the Xbox 360 as a complete home entertainment system for non-gamers, featuring a DVD player, stereo system, slide show, video console and more. The team to build the most compelling promotion, as judged by Microsoft and Wal-Mart executives, wins the task.
The winners take a private jet to Hollywood to meet Jeffrey Katzenberg of DreamWorks Animation Studios. The studio executive coaches them through a voice-over session for the new animated film Over the Hedge, starring Bruce Willis, Garry Shandling and Steve Carell. Other voices in the movie include Nick Nolte, Avril Lavigne and William Shatner. Sean Yazbeck provides the voice for BBQ Barry and Lee Bienstock provides the vocals for Lunch Table Larry.
(Thanks to aeropostale676 at Survivor Sucks for finding the spoiler and to Walt/Wallyhorse who first brought this spoiler to our attention.)
The losers face the boardroom where one candidate will be fired.
Microsoft posted some rather bizarre interviews on Xbox.com, asking fired candidates Brent Buckman and (Jose) Pepi Diaz about the Walmart / Xbox 360 task. Brent answered each task question with "I don't know." Pepi actually answered a couple questions, but he also threw in one "I don't know." How bizarre!
In case you missed the hints up above, Lee is in the Final Four!
Previews for Episode 13 and the finale were posted last week.

How refreshing, in a world of so many liars, Brent isn't afraid of saying "I don't know." Very wise.
Showme,
I think that your theory is pretty sound (provided that there is no additional show) with the exception of one point.
My gut feeling as well was that Tammy would not watch with her school if it is the episode wherein she gets fired. Upon further reflection though, I don't think that that we can say that definitively. It could be that she does get fired and wanted to be present in order to talk about the circumstances of the firing or the task because she might actually be proud of them. How many candidates have come away from the show holding their heads up high and talking about their committment to their own values and why they trump (pun intended) the specifics of the contest.
I would more quickly see Tammy feeling undermined by her teammates as that seems to have been the trend the last 2 weeks. Roxanne and Allie seem to have more of a bond.
You know that it is possible that in the final four task Trump might switch up the teams to make it Tammy and Lee vs. Roxanne and Sean, to make it interesting, and testing to see if they could work with there pier. It's possible. And the voting link is huge there is no reason for tammy and sean not to have links to the voting.
Trump being Trump loves to do what no one expects. I can easily see him firing someone from the wining team just to show that he can.
ShowMe (and other speculators):
* You're making too many assumptions without any factual basis. We generally don't like to speculate so much.
* We expect an episode to air on May 29. We should be able to confirm it, one way or the other, over the coming weekend. If there is an Episode 14, it could be either a task or an interview process.
* We don't know which team will have an "undermined" candidate next week. That's why we removed it from the latest preview.
* It's possible that the teams will be re-shuffled after Episode 12. We just don't know yet.
* It's certainly possible that Tammy will watch her firing with her alma mater. She has nothing to be ashamed of. If she's being fired, it's her last opportunity for a fundraising event. It's possible that she couldn't schedule it earlier in the season. We don't want to speculate based on this event. That's why we removed it from the latest preview. [Rumor has it that Dan watched his firing with a large gathering of friends.]
* We don't see anything meaningful from the three Gold Rush teammates telling Trump that Tammy is a strong candidate. George, Carolyn and the kids are Donald's eyes & ears. Lee hasn't even worked with Tammy or seen her in action.
If one candidate is undermined by hi/her team, it has to be Synergy, since the implication is that it was two against one. And we know that Lee and Sean win next week, thus, there is no pre-task shakeup.
Michael:
The latest info from NBC referred to a candidate "undermined by his team who isn't taking his ideas seriously." However, earlier in the season, an NBC reference to a "him" turned out to be Charmaine. This is why we do not want to speculate anything based on this information. It could mean absolutely anything.
There is no team shuffle prior to Episode 12. We don't know if there will be one after Episode 12.
Walt- do TV networks ever air a show on a night besides the day of the week that it is supposed to be? If anything, wouldnt they make a 2 hr special on a monday night, rather than air one episode on fri or wed?
I'm just curious how many weeks has this site been up?
SCHEDULING UPDATE
According to the latest update from NBC, Deal or No Deal will air from 8:25 to 10:00.
The Apprentice starts at 10 pm.
(We suspect that the Pacific time zone wouldn't be affected by the President's address.)
Hey look at the trouble we're causing. Lee does not have a link any more to vote for him anymore.

The Final Battle
The final two candidates take on their toughest tasks yet, coordinating two massive charity events. One finalist faces off with a tough executive while putting on a celebrity hockey event and the other lets his heart lead him astray while staging a massive rock concert in Atlantic City.
A word of caution: It's a generic "him". Could be a male or female.
Walt,sounds like that someone fabricated the info in that post. Just doesn't sound credible.
Well wallyhorse, you were wrong about Tammy.
