After the elimination last week of Stephanie Edwards, two of the twelve finalists are out, and there are only ten potential winners left (in reality, there are many fewer than that who can win this thing). Those that are here tonight can all be seen on the Idol tour later this year.
The mentor this week is Gwen Stefani, and contestants are allowed to sings songs that inspired her. In other words, it could be anything.
Doug starts his job at Panco, and finds that he has an assignment on his first day. Actually, he has two, but one of them is a secret to everyone but him and his family. The first is that he has to convince everyone else that he's a lawyer, when he has absolutely no experience - much less education, certification or anything else that would allow him to conduct business as a lawyer.
The second is a more mundane job, and that's simply a pet project of Hugh. Whenever someone new comes on board, they have to make room for themselves by clearing out the person who previously held the job. In other words, Doug has to fire his predecessor.
