If you have Python and know the language, here's an alternative:
Code:
#!/usr/bin/python
for line in open("file2"):
    line = line.strip() #get rid of newlines
    name,entry = line.split(' ',1)
    for lin in open("file1"):
        lin = lin.strip()
        if lin.startswith(name):
                for e in entry.split():
                    lin = lin.replace(e , "")
                print "Output: ", lin

output:
Code:
/test # ./test.py
Output:  allan  entry2
Output:  bob  entry2 entry3
