"Top left drawer," Betty answers back, without adding, "Right next to the condoms - oh, wait, that's why you don't know where the toothpaste is, you tramp."

Meanwhile, Daniel tells Alexis that he reviewed the numbers for his mother's magazine, Hot Flash, which I think is the most awesome name for magazine. Alexis says, "Good, cause we need to talk about that," she says as she walks out in her bra and panties while trying on some clothes. Daniel freaks, probably because he suddenly wanted to "hit and quit" his own sister.

Bros before hos is really confusing right now

He then starts complaining about the cost of their mother's hobby and even more so when Alexis tells him Claire wants to do an ongoing adventure series for the over-50 set. Seriously? Hot Flash sounds like More meets Men's Journal, and I'm betting they could make a fortune off the over-50 women demographic. I bet it would sell like an enriched supplement. Come on, it's a great time to be silver!

Betty, back at the office because God forbid she should take her birthday off, bumps into Amanda wearing her vivid kiss shirt and reminds her she's not supposed to be there because it's her birthday weekend. Amanda asks her if she's headed to Des Moines and Betty says they were going to the Poconos, and Amanda says "Same dif." I'm not sure which region to feel worse for.

Betty needs a new, cool place to go to for her birthday and asks Amanda. "Turning forty?" Amanda asks.

"Twenty-four." Heh. Amanda recommends the Pemberly Inn, which is according to her is so hottttt she'd make out with Betty on the patio if she could just get a seat there. Put your tongue back in.

Sweet Moses, there are two tongues like that now?

"Happy fiftieth!" she yells after Betty.

Daniel, too stupid to figure this one out, is researching Stony Brook on the internet which must be a true departure from all the porn his computer is used to. Normally, he'd be Googling "Horny Brooke from Long Island." He welcomes Betty back into the office and tells her he's glad she's feeling better. Hard to believe this guy is still on the market, huh? Despite numerous attempts by Betty, Daniel is clueless it's her birthday. Betty, you must be in charge of his Outlook calendar. Next time, put it on there - with the reminder at least a week in advance!

Luckily, Betty is smart and Mode has begun to make her manipulative. She tells Daniel about three separate date options - ballgame & drinks, art show, or fireworks with the Philharmonic. New York, is there anything you don't have? Oh yeah. Parking. Betty downplays the Phil because she clearly wants those tickets. Daniel almost takes them for his date with Renee, but worries about grass stains. On his pants. Bummer, too - a pyromaniac at a pyrotechnic function. That would be crazy awesome! But alas, Betty gets her tickets.

Papi and Hilda are discussing Betty's ruined weekend because that apparently is easier than going to work each day. Seriously, is Betty the only breadwinner now? Oh, I see, Papi becomes an American citizen and immediately gets lazy. Good one, work ethic. Hilda decides to take cupcakes to Henry's place to drop off for their date. Uh, where does she think Charlie's staying? Surely Betty would have told her. Drop them off at Mode instead, Hilda. Charlie will spit her venom in each one!

Renee stops by Mode because she's found an apartment just down the street from Daniel. Nothing says stalker lover than someone you've been dating for a few hours moving in around the block. He does the typical Daniel eye blinking/how well do we know each other routine, and then tells her Willie stopped by...oh, P.S., what is Stony Brook?

"It's a state college on Long Island." Oh, they are going to be pissed about this kind of advertising. Go Seawolves! "I went to school there." Uh huh. You're going to need to finish that thought. She says she got a little wild there - she had a life before she met him just like he did. If that's the case, you both need to take a run to the nearest clinic. She gets ticked and tells him not to call her until he's ready to trust her a little, which is exactly what you'd say if you were using reverse psychology on a moron who can't see the difference! That will never work on Daniel - oh, who am I kidding?
