"Hilda, mom is gone. That doesn't mean that Papi has to spend the rest of his life alone," Betty says. Hilda agrees but is worried about keeping her mother's memory alive. If this were a true telenovela, their mother would come back as a ghost and haunt them, and bring some kind of puppet with her. Although I think Days of our Lives did something similar a few years ago.
Over at Willie's house of mites, Connor returns and immediately asks about ONB. It would have been awesome if Willie had that thing turning on a spit over the fireplace. Instead, she blurts out, "Connor, I love you. I don't know what you feel but I needed to tell yo---" she doesn't finish because he's all over her face telling her he loves her too. Then the bird says she loves Connor too. It's a huge lovefest! Take off your shoes, Connor, take them off!
See what happens when you
profess your love to someone? Yak.
Claire and Daniel are all dressed up in the Mode offices and Claire says she doesn't want to be late for her party. But instead, Daniel has dinner set up in his office because God forbid he should take his mother out somewhere nice like a real restaurant. Take her to McYak's, she'd love that. Of course, she'd probably steal some of the silverware. They toast with champagne and what? Isn't she a recovering alcoholic? Great birthday.
Thanks to the recession, we'll be ordering from the cafetorium.
Willie and Connor are ice skating on an empty rink. Daniel and Claire are watching videos of a sober Claire reading a Christmas book to Daniel and Alex. Elena and Papi are laughing, Betty is smiling, and Hilda is giving everyone the stink-eye while Justin videotapes everything. And...scene.
Worst reality show ever, thanks Justin.
Next week? Christina finally drops the Meade spawn. And if there's anything Crabby likes, it's birthing scenes. Expect those scenes to be heavily Cliff-Noted.

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.
