First time I've watched any part of this show, but Mrs. DA was watching and I caught the last 15 minutes or so.

I was mildly surprized, but not shocked at his comments and his sacking of her in the end.

If you've ever worked for or with powerful executives, one of the first things you realize is that if you mess with them along the way, you're gonna get nailed in the end.

Mutual respect only goes as far as the board room door.

She attacked him, and he won.

He attacked her, too. He won.

Trump was trying to look like a good guy, but if he had strongly disagreed, he would have hired her anyway.

If she's smart, she'll invite him out to lunch and be sure the air is clear between them.

As a guy told me when I was younger and stupider (new word), "Never burn your bridges, because you'll never know who will be operating the next on you come to."

She burned her bridge, at least temporarily, at that last conference table meeting.

To the victor, go the spoils.
