Daniel says to Wilhelmina, "We are in front of a DNA facility, what harm could it do?" Is that DNA facility open all night? New York is the best city ever! "I'm not going to indulge the lunatic who stole my son just to give her peace of mind." She says Christina can rot in jail. Well, she's probably more pickled right now what with all the drinking, but eventually she would rot.

Betty is leaning into a police car, which...when do they ever put the window down on criminals? She says there must be something they can do. "We're in handcuffed in the back of a police car, Betty, I think we're out of options," Stuart says. Yeah, your next option is going to be how far to bend over, Stuart, and not for a medication shot. Christina bemoans "taking on Wilhelmina Slater." Well duh, don't we all? The car drives off.

Back at home, Willie is tucking William into bed and his nursery is black! What the hell? Marc stands in the doorway telling Willie that he's made more bottles and the nanny will be there the next morning. Yeah, she did a great job today. Then Marc's conscience stops by but he keeps it quiet. Well, almost

"Congratulations, I guess," he says. "You did it. As far as anyone knows, the baby is yours." Now he's wearing his disappointed/tsk-tsk face. "The baby IS mine, Marc," she replies. "Yes, and your position with the company is secure and Christina's going to jail," he tweaks. "We win."

This is my "Stifling my Conscience" face. Like it?

Now Willie's pissed. "If you have something to say, why don't you say it?" she says. I'm pretty sure he just did. "Have a good night, Wilhelmina." "Good night, Marc," she says, giving him the raised eyebrow that tells him she will eat his liver with onions the next morning. She goes back to the baby, smiles, it fades as that teeny-tiny conscience of Willie's rears it's head, but she sighs and squishes it back down. Well done, Satan, well done!

Back at Casa Campaign HQ, Betty is apologizing to Hilda for bringing Christina and the baby to the house. Uh, you probably should be apologizing to your whole family since they all could have been considered accomplices. Hilda says thank God naïve Archie didn't find out because he'd be so - "So...what?" Archie asks, walking into the room. Hilda plays it off that he's SO cute, blabbedy-blah-blah and Archie fesses up that Justin told him everything.

Hmm. How long do you think it would take news crews to figure out that the Hilda Suarez of Queens was related to kidnap-accomplice and Tornado Girl Betty Suarez, and that Councilman Archie was consorting with kidnappers? Career? Over. Betty apologizes for almost ruining his career but she was just trying to help a friend. Archie says he thinks that's noble. What?

Hilda totally calls him out because he totally spazzed on what she was going to wear that day but kidnapping is okay with him? No, he's not fine with kidnapping, but he understands Betty was trying to do what was right. By kidnapping. God, that is some effed-up logic. He's perfect for politics.

"It doesn't really matter," Betty sulks, "because Wilhelmina won." Archie suggests fighting dirty. Hilda and Betty are surprised. He says working in politics he's learned that sometimes to get what you want, you have to be a little creative. Like Elliot Spitzer creative or Marion Barry creative? Help me define this. Either way, Hilda is totally going to sex him up tonight, that's for damn sure!

So, back over at Wilhelmina's house of horror, she opens the door to one Betty Suarez. Great doorman, Willie, have him fired as soon as possible. "I know the truth," Betty says. Willie looks worried, but also hungry. Run Betty!

Why didn't you just bring over a poo-filled diaper?
That would be just as appetizing.

Betty says she can prove it because she has a jacket with baby spit-up on it, and when she gets it tested, it will prove the baby is Christina's. Also, gross. "And you will go to jail!" Betty says, like she's on Scooby Doo or something. "Or you can admit the baby's not your and we can chalk that fake DNA test to a mistake," Betty says. Wow, girlfriend has grown some cajones! Willie looks at the spit up, raises her hands, and says, "Looks like you got me."

fire@will:

Great recap! I missed some of the details while watching.

BTW - Heard any rumors about Rebecca coming back? They never mention her character on the show. How about Salma? Either one would be a plus.

dearcrabby:

Rebecca just filmed a pilot for ABC called Eastwick, so if it takes off probably not (bummer!). IMDB is showing Salma has a lot of projects going right now, so who knows! Henry's coming back so anything is possible - now if we can just get Gio back!
