More snuggling. Hilda clears her throat. Hilda gets pissed and goes into the kitchen for a beer. Papi follows her and tells her she's acting like a child - you mean like YOUR child, because she is! "You're acting like a horny teenager," she says. Hilda storms out and Justin walks in. He tells Papi he likes Elena and he's sorry Hilda and Elena can't be friends like they used to be. Meh.
Betty's in the locker room checking out long duck dongs every where she turns as Sports Guy tries to introduce her to who they are attached to. She tells him it must be nice to be working at his dream magazine. He tells her he always stunk at sports and thought pros were just a bunch of overpaid babies. (they are...Sprewell, Rodman, the Lakers). One of the guys says, "Hey, I heard that!" But he doesn't deny it.
Sports Guy tells her what changed is that he got to know the guys. One player was in a car accident and told he was never going to walk again...but here he is! Then he shows her the inside of one player's shirt that has names written on it of all his family members because the Serbian government would only let him come to the states, not his family. Wonder if any of the players are from Darfur? Anyway, Sports Guy says things didn't come naturally to him until he made it personal. "Maybe that could help you," he says.
Wow, "Death to America" in your shorts - now there's dedication!
In Willie's apartment, she's toasting herself for trashing on the designer who snubbed her and Connor is all turned on. "Nobody puts baby in the second row," he says, and she admonishes him for using such a tired reference (the same reference I used for Willie in a recent recap...was that a shout-out? I need the love from wherever I can get it!).
On the TV, Suzuki mentions his interview with Willie and the "juicy dish" she has for him (Connor?), but wait - there's breaking news! "Doggy jeans are now low-waisted!" My dogs will be so pleased except one who is holding on to a little bit of winter wait - no, that's me. Willie got dissed! One big bitch dissed by lots of little ones!
You know you're nobody when
you are upstaged by dog jeans!
"It's slipping away," she says. She tells Connor that she killed herself for her career and now that she's flirting with a personal life, she's nothing. No, I think the point is that you are staying at home too much and perhaps you should take your boy toy and be seen out and about. And why blame Connor? Wait for the baby to come and ruin everything. Connor gives her a rah-rah speech that I fast-forwarded through the second time I watched. Yes, yes, you're in it together.
This ensemble is from Heinrich's "Boca Granny" line.
Back at Heinrich's, Betty tells him that she learned all about how he grew up behind the Iron Curtain. Did she mean Iron Maiden? She even has visuals that scared me to my inner core (which is lava, by the way). She said she also learned about his father who was killed when trying to escape over the barbed wire at the Berlin Wall. "Even when the wall came down, you still had that pain. Pain that is with you in the clothes you design," she says. He should totally strike up a deal with Wal-Mart like Mary Kate and Ashley.
Nine Inch Nails or a Christian Rock CD cover...you be the judge!
"Maybe the only way you can think of escaping is by creating giant wings that lift you up and carry you away," she says. I think I may have had yak for lunch, because here it comes. "Is that right?" Given the plinky-plunky music, I'm thinking yes.
Heinrich claps his hands and exclaims, "Now we will make love!" Betty politely declines (she's so booked up right now) and shows him instead a concept that some poor graphic designer had to come up with, probably in an all-nighter as usually happens, and probably pulling in a sweet $30K a year for a rat-infested New York apartment. It's a representation of the Berlin Wall. Wow, that should be cheap to build and easy to have complete in the next 24 hours. Good one, planning staff!
Which teamster do you think is in those walls?

I don't work in fashion, but I do watch The Hills and The City, so I feel justified in rolling my eyes at this supposed fashion magazine..do fashion magazines even put on fashion shows? And why not hire Kelly whatshername or Whitney or something.
And you forgot to mention the old, father freaking out and driving off to the hospital without the pregnant person, makes me want to hit somebody...

That smiley-face dress of Heinrich's was actually worn by Colin Firth's wife on the red carpet.

Thanks, Dear Crabby for another recap. Sports Guy might not be Sandwich Guy but he's also growing on me.
I love how you opened the recap with a pic of the Lion King because that's exactly what was on my mind when I saw the birth scene.
