The first question she asks everyone is what is Claire's best quality. Liz and the other women interviewed say, "She's a fun drunk." Then they qualify it by how many drinks she's had: first five, fun; next 5, tears and obscenities; by 11 she's a delight. What do they admire about her? How she was able to rebound from the murder conviction. The most fun people have had with Claire? When she wasn't there. God, this is just what my friends would say too.

Worst sex video EVER!

Back at the office, Amanda asks Betty how "the Claire Witch Project" is going. Betty tells Amanda the women were horrible and Claire has no friends. What about the mascara wand? Amanda says she'll give Claire a little birthday greeting to help out. Betty does a close up of Amanda who says, "Happy birthday Mrs. Meade. YOU KILLED MY MOTHER!" I would kill to see this tribute video.

Nice nose hair, Amanda.

Over in Willie's office, the bird is tormenting her with "Pretty Molly." Why the hell would you bring that lice ball into the office? Willie blames Marc for this and he says she should have offered to water his plants. Does Connor not have an assistant that could handle all this domestic bullshit? I mean, I'm not rich or famous but I often fantasize about someone else cleaning my toilets. In my fantasy, this person looks a lot like Martha Stewart.

Is Marc also Willie's gyno?
He's the best assistant ever!

"People in love do stupid things," Willie says and Marc gasps. "Did you just say the 'L' word," he asks. "Aww, Willie, have you told Connor yet?" No, of course not, you never, never, never say it first if you're the girl, never, never, never! NEVER. Willie agrees with me wholeheartedly. "Until Connor makes the first move, no one outside this office will hear me say" (DON'T DO IT WILLIE!) " 'I love Connor.' " Oh crap. And sure enough, the bird squawks out, "I love Connor." Well, it could have picked it up from Molly, right? Right?

How is Yak romantic? No wonder I don't date.

In another, weirder part of town, New York is sporting a "Himalayan Yak Restaurant," which really? "You remembered," Molly said. Yes, he remembered from LAST NIGHT. Then Molly says, "There's something you should know," and we cut to inside where the host calls her Miss Molly and welcomes her back. Unfortunately, the host also asks about Mr. Connor and is very confused and upset with Mr. Daniel. As he walks to the table, he sees a picture of Molly and Connor up on the wall. Because why now? Oh, to piss off Daniel. Good work, Yak Room!

Molly certainly gets around, doesn't she? YAK!

Betty is at home complaining that Claire's friends are all losers and she doesn't know what to do. Hilda calls Papi for dinner (screams is more like it) and Justin begs to see the footage. They are all setting the table and talking about something boring, screaming for Papi, Jesus JUST GO AND FIND HIM! Turns out he's doing his "therapy" with Elena (if that's what you kids are calling it these days) and Betty goes to get them both for dinner.

I'm sorry, I seem to have opened the door
on every kid's worst nightmare!

AAAAAAAAACK! My eyes, my eyes! They are in the front vestibule making out! Say it ain't so Papi - oh, wait, I actually don't mind this one bit. At least someone is doing something telenovela-ish! YAY! They see Betty and come into the house. "Are you two..." Betty stammers per usual. Take a speech class! "...together," Papi finishes.

Hilda and Betty are staring at Papi and Elena with arms crossed. Way to be open-minded, kids. Papi says that he wanted to keep it a secret but Claire told him to come clean because he had a good thing going with Elena. Hilda gets all up in Elena's business for lying to her about something going on with Papi, that he's her patient, it's totally inappropriate, and I'm thinking if you want to see inappropriate, look at the clothes you wear.

NOT the faces of open-minded acceptance.

Beatrice B:

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. :)

bgroman:

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.
