OMFG!!! A little boring in the middle but that ending! AMAZING...
Ok, so I was one of those people who thought Ugly Betty was overrated and I decided to check out an episode online because I was curious. Surprise, surprise, I end up getting completely hooked on the show and over the summer, I watch all of them on DVD. I couldn't wait until the new season started because there were soooooo many cliffhangers.
Well, at last it finally came and at first I was thinking, ok, it's boring. Just another episode, nothing brazilliant. Oh was I wrong.
The episode starts off three weeks(?) after what happened in the season finale. I'll do this by character up until the last five minutes of the episode.
Betty - Betty is now running everything in her house. She's also trying to run Mode even though everything she does, which is really want Daniel wants, gets shot down (unbeknownst to Betty and Daniel) by Wilhelmina. Betty is all struggling with her feelings because of Henry. She still loves him and knows about the possibility of Charlie's baby not being his, but hasn't called to tell him. After a freak-out at a Mode photo shoot, Betty drowns her sorrows in food and is surprised to see Daniel rolling up to her in a wheelchair. He tells her to come with him, because they're going to a funeral....
Daniel's been stuck in the hospital this whole time, increasing his pain pill addiction every day. Although he sees Alexis from afar, he never goes to really visit her, even though Betty tells him he should. Daniel tries to still manage Mode while he's in the hospital, but he doesn't know that Wilhelmina's the one who's really running things there....
Alexis is in a coma because of the car accident….
Wilhelmina is still planning her wedding to Bradford, but she’s also trying to figure out how to really get rid of Claire. She’s also stressed about what’s going on at Mode. But her luck looks like it’s going to change once she receives a phone call from Claire herself, asking her to meet her…
Amanda has gotten fat because of her overeating. She’s been eating everything because she’s upset about her parents not telling her that she was adopted and that she was Fey Sommers’s daughter. Mark ends up helping her go to visit her parents where they find them in a foursome with another couple. Mark blurts out that Amanda knows and they all sit down to talk about it, but Amanda doesn’t want to talk and runs out of the room. She goes back to Mode with Mark and where Mark thinks that Amanda might be Bradley Meade’s daughter. After unsuccessful attempts in getting his DNA, Mark helps her and they finally get some hair from him to test….
Hilda is in bed with Santos and goes over what they have to do for the wedding. Santos has been shot and is healing up, so Hilda doesn’t want him to get out of bed, let alone leave the house. The two start going over their vows when Betty knocks at the door….
Ignacio is still waiting in Mexico….
Justin has to go to day camp and hates it. So he decides to skip and hide out in the Mode offices, particularly Wilhelmina’s office during a run-through. Betty finally let’s Justin drop day-camp after Daniel tells her Mode is in need of some help….
Henry’s still in Arizona with Charlie….
Claire is hiding out in the Hamptons after escaping from prison with Yoga. She gets restless because she wants to see her kids so she ends up putting in a phone call to Wilhelmina, telling her to meet her. Instead of going to meet with Wilhelmina, Claire goes to Bradford’s office and Yoga is the one who goes to meet Wilhelmina in the park, but is greeted by Marc. Wilhelmina is the one in Bradford’s chair and calls the cops to get Claire back in jail, but Claire punches her out and gets away.
Betty and Daniel go to the park where Daniel coaches Betty through her feelings and burying her past feelings for Henry. She digs a hole in the ground and throws in all of the things that remind her of Henry. Daniel also admits that he has a problem with drugs and throws his bottle of pain relievers in the hole.
Daniel ends up going back to the hospital to speak with Alexis where he apologizes for her being in the coma where she miraculously wakes up and asks him who Alexis is. She thinks she’s still Alex and doesn’t remember transforming into Alexis.
Betty gets home and tells Justin that Daniel is looking for some interns so that he doesn’t have to go back to day-camp. Betty then goes up to check on Hilda, just as Hilda wakes up to find out that her days with Santos were all a dream. Santos really did die and she’s coming to grips with it. Betty goes in the room to comfort her just as Henry gets off of a bus landing him back in New York City.
How sad was the Santos/Hilda thing?!?!? I figured something was a little weird, becasue the wedding dress she said she was going to get married in last season was not the dress she tried on. But I totally didn't see that coming at all and cried a little bit. The oracle got freaked out and started crying herself because she doesn't like seeing me cry.
That's my puppy.
Can't wait to see it next week!!
