Over at "real date central," we see Hilda waiting at a restaurant with no Coach. Sort of looks like she's a prostitute in that dress; I'm surprised the management hasn't asked her to leave or enlisted the help of the police in asking her to leave. Yikes. She calls Coach and he's all like "Hey, Bobby, sorry I didn't follow up with you today, I have a family thing." Hilda realizes the wife is still in town. Coach is benched for the evening. Imagine that.
You know every woman in that restaurant has
called Hilda a 'ho. Wear it proudly, Hilda.
Back at the Mode party, Wilhelmina says, "If this is about a bunch of ridiculous letters," but is cut off by Alexis. "This isn't about the letters. I'm not happy with the magazine." Oh my GOD, it's been ONE MONTH. How unhappy can you be? "I think your cover is cold." Because it's of ice? Wow. Deep.
Actually, I thought the cover was fine,
but the growth on my chest says otherwise.
"I had a specific vision and I didn't expect you to understand," Wilhelmina says. Who says something like that to their supervisor? Damn. Balls. And big ones! Were those on the ice sculpture too?
"I guess it was lost on a few other people too....your first day sales numbers..." Daniel taunts. Way to be mature. Claire finishes his sentence, "...were not good." This issue of Mode had the lowest sales out of any other issue before. Oh, please. They say that each month. So, although Alexis likes Wilhelmina as a creative director, she's putting Daniel back as editor. Alexis really is a bonehead manager. Pick one situation and stick with it!
And next month, guest editor Sarah Palin!
Alexis loves maverick editors!
Alexis announces to everyone that Daniel is back as editor. Everyone claps because they know this time next month, Alexis will be making ME editor. It's just how she rolls. Like Wilhelmina's eyes.
Believe it or not, Willie, I do feel your pain!
Marc saddles up next to Betty and she says, "You left those letters for me, didn't you? You planned this whole thing so I'd be back with Daniel and you could have Wilhelmina all to yourself."
"Don't be absurd. I wouldn't do anything to hurt Wilhelmina's interests...unless they're hurting mine." It's like he's speaking Parseltongue, I swear to God. Marc, j'adore you.
Wilhelmina says, "Don't forget I still own one-third of this company."
"Your unborn child owns a third of this company, not you," Claire corrects. Where was she last season? "You would be nothing without that baby."
"But don't worry, you're still our creative director," Alexis says, which is odd since she doesn't like the creative direction the magazine took in the last 30 days. I'm giving her a big 'ole doyeeeee.
"I'm more than happy to have you come work for me," Daniel smarts. Don't be a tool, that makes you like her.
"You can't push me aside," Wilhelmina says.
"Oh really?" Claire asks. She reaches over and pushes the ice sculpture to the floor where is smashes into many, many angry ice cubes. And probably two balls.
Claire has freakish upper body strength.
"You are going to regret this," Wilhelmina says.
"Don't you ever threaten my children, Wilhelmina!" Oh, fight! Fight! Come on! "You have no idea the length I will go to protect them." Me-ow!
Wilhelmina storms out and Daniel goes up to Betty to apologize and thank her for having faith in him YET AGAIN. He wants her to come back and she hits him up for the raise Wilhelmina gave her. She should hit him up for even more since she just saved his sorry ass, YET AGAIN.
Dios mio - I'm falling and I won't be able to get up!
Christina is waiting at the elevator and it's not working, so she decides to take the stairs - dun-dun-dunnnnn...the music gets spooky, she looks behind her, it's a scary stairwell....and out of nowhere hands push her down the flight of stairs...she lands at the bottom, motionless!
No, really, I'm okay!
And thanks to the magic of the DVR, I slow-motioned the episode and those are definitely man hands pushing her. I'm not saying Claire hired someone, I'm saying the hands aren't hers. They were too manly for Marc's hands, so I'm pretty sure they are Stuart's. I guess they could belong to Alexis - no amount of surgery can fix man hands, right? And I've said it before, me loves me some telenovela drama. Now we're cooking!

Another FINE recap - and a good episode! (I may give minor demerits for anti-GOP bias).
"Betty, I think I'd like to go back to
having Marc do my collagen injections." - LOL Brilliant screencap
In real life, Hilda should stop and ask herself if she really wants to be married to a man who cheats on his wife. But this is a teleno-nothing, so I think this we should get used to the dating-married-guys plots.
