TV on the Edge: Moments That Shaped Our Culture

As she looks to hire a well-rounded, razor-sharp second-in-command, business mogul Bethenny Frankel welcomes ten hopeful candidates to the competition with a swank cocktail party. Scanning the room for a potential VP of Operations, Bethenny plants two moles to gather intel, and later, a social media aptitude test leaves her underwhelmed for the first elimination round.

After introducing the remaining contestants to their new workspace, a stunning Soho loft, Bethenny reminds them that this is the interview of a lifetime -- and they better start acting the part. Giving the first challenge's winner a special edge -- and emphasizing that effective time management should be their first priority -- Bethenny spurs the group to produce an ad campaign for her inclusive, bestselling shapewear line. But when faced with criticism, some can't handle the heat.

While the photoshoot challenge continues, Bethenny confronts a source of drama -- and struggles to tell a friendly face that they've bungled a crucial task. After meeting the group back at the loft to evaluate their shots, Bethenny struggles to showcase her trademark decisiveness at elimination. Later, the candidates prepare themselves for a massive curveball.

What begins as a straightforward project -- preparing Bethenny for a Skinnygirl clothing sales appearance -- turns into the contestants' highest-stakes undertaking yet when Bethenny announces they'll have to sell the products themselves on live TV.

After throwing two colossal curveballs, Bethenny directs the group to produce a video campaign for BStrong, a disaster relief initiative close to her heart. Paired off for the first time, duos must work together to crystallize and convey a concise, poignant message for Bethenny's website -- but when chaos strikes, will they impress the boss with their calm execution or will they fall apart?

Challenged to create a digital showcase for Bethenny's new cookware line, the group struggles to follow simple recipes and communicate their vision to a web designer. With the heat turned all the way up, the candidates forge deep connections back at the loft -- just in time for elimination.

For their final challenge, the remaining superstars pull out all the stops to host a fabulous 50th birthday/launch party for Bethenny and her latest rosé. As Bethenny looks towards the future, the candidates create media kits that capture her evolving brand -- and reflect on all the pressures, sacrifices and ambitions that have led them to this extraordinary moment.
