Over in Central Park, Daniel and Molly are ice skating and Daniel manages to slam into snow bunny Wilhelmina who says, "Watch where you're going, dumbass!" She and I are soulmates. Then Molly shows up, then Connor shows up, and Awkward-A-Rama ensues. How to make it more awkward? Molly says, "This is awkward." Nothing gets past her.
I'm sorry, did we cover the awkward angle?
"Why?" Connor asks. "Just because my ex-fiance is here with her new boyfriend who is my mate." Connor, I believe last season you mentioned you slept with one of your best friend's wives or something. You might want to lighten the hell up. Daniel says they'll go, Willie says they'll go, and Connor says, "Oi! We're all grown ups." Connor, you are in New York. It's "OY."
So they all decide to go get some hot chocolate, hopefully spiked, as Connor and Molly relive their trip to Bhutan and Nepal and sleeping around elephants. See? Boring. Sort of. Daniel and Willie are bored out of their minds and Connor and Molly are ready to jump each other. You know what would make this episode rock? Foursome. Instead, Connor talks about the horrible rash Molly gets from wet clothes. Cancel the foursome.
The next day Betty wants to interview Daniel for his mother's video and he wants Betty to book a direct flight from JFK to Tibet. His whitey-tighties must be too tight this morning, if he's wearing underwear at all (questionable). He wants to impress Molly. By taking her to where Connor almost took her. Good luck with that, have you seen the size of Connor's feet? I believe I have mentioned that once or ten times.
Daniel's concern is that he's never had a relationship last longer than 6 months which is why he wants to pack in a bunch of cool memories quickly. That makes no sense, because once you dump Molly, you won't want to remember her, so why add an expensive trip to your pain? Rich people are so dumb sometimes.
Betty gets the camera out and it won't record. Daniel takes a look at it and says that it's not broken, it just has a lot of great shots of her front hall....front hall...front hall...and Papi grabbing Elena's ass! Betty sees it and freaks out like anyone would if they saw their dad copping a feel from the help. D'oh!
Their insurance covers T & A? I must get their number!
At home, Betty is showing the video to Hilda who has apparently gone blind because she doesn't really see it. They discuss talking about it with Papi, and Hilda brings up a good point, "What are we supposed to say? Papi, we saw you going for the junk in your nurse's trunk?" Betty's concerned that Elena might sue them or worse...quit. How is that worse? Hilda says she'll talk to Elena and Betty can talk to their father about becoming "the booty bandit of Jackson Heights." Heh.
You're watching sex videos of your dad,
but no, Elena is the sick one.
The next day, Betty has her dad come into the city for lunch and proceeds to hem and haw around asking him anything about Elena. Hilda, back home, has a much more direct approach with Elena. "Did my father grab a handful of your ass last night?" she asks. Elena looks stunned. Betty and Papi are blah-blah-blahing...maybe that damn house-shaped and Crayola-colored purse is distracting her. Elena says not to worry about Papi. "He's a lovely man," she says, forgetting to add, "with his own sweet ass!"
Betty might want to talk to Papi, but that purse indicates
she's the one who needs the real intervention.
Back at Mode where I'm guessing Wilhelmina is working hard on putting out another issue, she's complaining to Marc about...Connor. She says he and Molly have trekked all through Asia together, but she has yet to see the inside of his apartment. Maybe because you have better décor for booty calls? Turns out Connor has invited Willie over, but "he lives in Murray Hill. I'm not a barbarian," she says. That's still Manhattan if Wikipedia has not steered me wrong.
Marc recommends that she open herself up "just a teensy bit to Connor." The hell you say! That's Wilhelmina Slater you are talking to! There are no doors to open! Marc suggests baby steps. Speaking of which, where is that kid of hers? Christina has been cooking that kid for like 2 years now, what is she having, an elephant? Be sure to tell Connor and Molly!

Thanks for the recap. As always they are WAY better than the actual episode. I was surprised to see Connor and in the episode but as always he's hot and sexy. :)

Excellent recap, better than the show by far. The costumes are too easy as targets but I enjoy your zingers there and elsewhere, they always hit the mark.
