“Grill Charms”

Aired Wednesday 30 September 2009

When her first opportunity at pitching the Sharks couldn't happen because of devastating news right before her appearance, this charming housewife from Charleston, South Carolina gets another chance and hopes to secure a deal this time around. She sends the Sharks into a feeding frenzy, but Barbara Corcoran -- the only female Shark - thinks her colleagues are behaving like smitten teenage boys rather than savvy business investors. Also, Kevin O'Leary is determined to seal a deal with a college student from Bloomington, Indiana who pitches a product made from soy that he concocts in his mom's kitchen. But the young entrepreneur's idealism and naiveté may get in the way of a deal.
