However, Kimmie isn't going for it. She thinks Betty is trying to screw her now, not before, and says she's not going to back down. "Unlike you, Betty, I intend to go places," she says. Hope she knows that place is back to Flushing Burger!

Betty tries to get the necklace put back into the shoot. Kimmie says no and that she's a good judge of character, and right now Betty is "oozing petty, bitter, jealous ooze." This is where I would walk if not sooner. Wilhelmina comes up behind them asking for the necklace.

"It's not going to be in the shoot," Kimmie says.

"But I want it in the shoot," Wilhelmina says.

"Yeah, but it's hideous so we're not using it," Kimmie answers. "Don't worry babe, I've got it covered. Just sit back, relax, have a doughnut." Kimmie, the line is "Sit back, relax and enjoy the show." Duh! Marc and Amanda gasp.

"Do you have some kind of death wish?" Wilhelmina asks. No, but others do...for her!

"My only wish right now is that you scooty-scoot-scoot," Kimmie says, doing the "scoot" hand wave. I do that to my dogs to make them poop in the yard instead of the patio! "Go on, find some place shady."

"Get the damn necklace and put it in the damn picture," Wilhelmina says. Betty hands her the necklace.

"It's not going in the picture. That's my decision and that's final." Yep, it sure is!

The precise moment where Wilhelmina burst a blood vessel in her temple.
Thanks to Botox, she has no idea.

"Well, you're fired!" Wilhelmina says, ripping the necklace from her hands.

"No I'm not fired!" Yeah, I don't think that works.

"Oh yes you are fired!"

Kimmie tells Wilhelmina that Marc, Amanda, and Betty all tricked her and Wilhelmina gives them all a withering look, then calls security to come get Kimmie. I bet that happens to Lindsay all the time, so it's sort of Method acting for her at this point.

If I cared about disciplining any of you kids,
you would all be so grounded!

"Nah-uh," Kimmie says channeling spoiled brat I saw at the grocery store the other night. "No Kimmie, no shoot." Seriously? "Have fun doing a tico berry shoot with no tico berries," she says, throwing the basket of hard-to-get berries into a pond. Meh. They probably have them at Duane Reade, run to the corner and get some, Betty.

Is it me, or does this look like the damn strawberry necklace?

Kimmie ends this tirade with a "Ha!" right before security grabs her and escorts/carries her off. "Screw all of you, you haven't seen the last of me." I'm pretty sure Wilhelmina is going to have a handbag made out of your scrawny hide, so yes, I believe we have. Fingers crossed. Marc and Amanda are pleased and back to their prom royalty selves.

Just another day for Lindsay.

Oh crap, guess who's here looking for her tico berries. Wilhelmina says, "Betty?" D'oh! What will we do now? Maybe they can call Mario Battali and get some with more smelly cheese?

I once ate a tico berry this big!

Back at Hilda's, a guy walks in to get a hair cut. He saw one of her flyers and needs his hair trimmed up. I love the way he keeps his suit on while she starts to cut his hair - dry. Yuck. There will be hair everywhere! He says he had no idea this place was here and that it will really help with the community. He asks if she had a hard time getting her business license. Ah, here we go.

"Nah, I didn't get one," she says. Look, the Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away...what Hilda got in boobs she lost in I.Q. "What's the big deal? Who's going to say anything?" Well, probably the councilman who is sitting in your pink chair right now. Who's the bizzitch now? "Are you here to bust me?"

fire@will:

Another great recap. Another great episode.

Don't feel bad - I was also surprised by the reveal at the end - and I'm also excellent at catching that sort of thing. (In fact, I find myself reading your recap and wondering if I didn't really write under some split personality. Ever wonder why you and I never appear in the same place at the same time? Me neither! See!)

carmelicious:

DearCrabby -

Awesome recap!

You catch all the great details and I love you for it.

But I just have to ask you something: Did you not freak out when you saw Ralph Machhio (Daniel Larruso, Danielson, Karate Kid, etc..) as the Councilman - and he looked so good!!! I seriously let out a little yelp! I had some serious Karate Kid flashbacks, it was like falling in love with Daniel Larruso all over again..aaaaaaaahhh

(really stupid side note: I used to have a friend that was Kirk Cameron crazy, and I was totally Ralph Maccio crazy and our friendship actually ended when I told her that Danielson could kick Mike Seaver's ass any day with or with out Mr. Miagi!)

dearcrabby:

OH MY GOD, Carmelicious, I didn't even catch that! Holy wax-on/wax-off! I heard on the radio the other day that he just turned 47 which made me feel soooo old (but not as old as he is, phew). I guess when it comes to Hilda I just try to endure the scenes - clearly I need to pay more attention to her unemployment and boneheaded ways. Thanks for catching!

dearcrabby:

fire@will...I have too many personalities to keep up with! There would probably be a rip in the time-space continuum if we ever showed up at the same place and time...and it would look like Betty's blouses!

Beatrice B:

Thanks for the recap. This is great and entertaining as always (not the episode, mind you... I meant your recap)
