Chloe mentions Henry's big, new apartment that is further away from her, boo-hoo, and Matt decides it's the time to tell everyone their big news. Betty tells them about the editor position at The New York Review and Henry is totally excited because he knows that is her dream job. Matt is pissed and hurt, and after the game he asks her why she didn't tell them about moving in with him..
Betty stumbles over her stupid excuses and probably actually believes them. Matt asks her if she still wants to move in together, and her mouth says yes but her eyes say, "I wish I were having a Gio sandwich right now, and I'm not talking about something on the deli menu." Or she was thinking of Henry.
And speaking of raining men, Victoria and Willie are at Willie's apartment drinking, singing, and about to join the other team. They would totally be invincible, wouldn't they be? I bet they could whip Mode into shape! I wonder if those martinis have cherry antioxidants?
Willie's phone rings and she looks at it. "Ugh," she says, "Claire Meade. Leave me alone, you pill-popping hag." She turns to Victoria and apologizes. "Claire and I have a complicated relationship." Victoria says not to worry, that bitch almost ruined her marriage, you know, before she herself did. Willie pries it out of her..."Claire and Cal got a little too close," Victoria says.
"You poor thing," Willie says. "There was an affair?" "Worse," Victoria says. "There was a baby." Dun-dun-dunn oh my God this is totally awesome! Was Claire drinking when she was pregnant? Because I'm thinking Daniel is Cal's son! I'm sure we could blame some of Daniel on fetal alcohol syndrome.
This is what evil pleasure looks like.
I must practice with my own eyebrows.
Back at Casa Suarez, Hilda is grilling Betty on why moving in with Matt didn't come up. She says she loves Matt, but when she saw Henry, he took her breath away. I would say it's because you are still in love with him, but that's just me. He was rather perfect for her, outside of that whole baby-daddy scenario. Hilda lays it on the line and tells her Henry isn't real, and she's got Betty on this one. She tells Betty not to see Henry again.
Back at Molly & Daniel's, he's apologizing for being such an idiot. Daniel! Molly doesn't have that kind of time on her hands. Molly laughs and says maybe he should date her friend since they already have a funny story on how they met. Daniel is so not amused and he yells at Molly. Good one, yelling at a dying woman.
"Do you want to know why I make all those jokes?" she asks, tearing up. Uh-oh. "Because I'm trying to wrap my head around the worst thing I can imagine." Do not make me feel bad for you! "That I will die. And you will meet someone, and move on, and forget me. That's what I'm most afraid of, that the world will just go on without me and everyone will forget I was here." Aw, geez, how I'm I supposed to make fun of her now when I can't even see the screen in front of me for reasons you don't need to know about. I guess the good writers didn't go on vacation. Daniel promises her he'll never forget her. Sniff. Pass me a damn tissue.
Uh, this is a little awkward, but...
when Molly's dead, can I have her engagement ring?
Back at Mode the next day, Betty is leaving "another" message for Bernadette because she still hasn't heard from the magazine (it has been 18 hours, after all). Looking at Henry's Facebook page, she goes to remove him as a friend when Marc rolls up and tells Betty he got three offers. As if. He didn't close the deal with Bernadette; she didn't close the deal for him.
Marc asks how it's going for her and she tells him the good/maybe-not-so-much news. "I knew you got an offer! I got nothing!" He's totally upset because he had a great interview at Vogue. Betty touches his hand and goes to say something nice and he says, "Don't! My skins rots where you touch it!" Damn, that was mean, even for Marc.
Betty tells Marc to call Vogue to let them know what they were losing out on. He agrees. "If they are going to reject me, they are going to have to tell me why." He leaves. He comes back. "Thanks," he says to Betty. Hey, Betty, take your own advice. Find out what's going on! She calls the magazine and rut-roh...something ain't right in Candyland.

I must have lapsed into a coma (or a comma) about half-way through, because I didn't remember anything after that. But, thanks to your thorough and excellent recap, I don't have to watch it online.
