She had been so sure she was gone that she brought the producers a basket of macadamia nuts and chocolate as a goodbye gift. Instead...

(Years! Isn't that cute!) Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel, doing a monologue in the middle of the upfront, joked that the reason ABC passed on the opportunity to air "The Apprentice" was that "it hit too close to home...
