Oh crap, here comes Molly. Isn't she dead yet? And doesn't she have a job or did she quit in order to enjoy her last days booger-free? He wants to show her something and as they are walking through the hallway Amanda stops Daniel to ask him something stupid, but Molly keeps walking until she happens upon a sign that reads, "Will you marry me?" She gasps, not realizing that Mode is in the midst of their wedding issue. Dumb ass.

Molly's illness has caused her to make
her O-face at inopportune times.

"Oh my God! I can't believe this!" she says, turning to Daniel. "Yes!" Daniel was like, "It's just Paula Abdul, yelling at a mailbox," he says, clearly talking about a picture I would love to see but Molly clearly didn't. He looks over and sees what she saw and says he wasn't asking her to marry him and she tries to cover by saying she knew it was for the wedding issue and Amanda is like, "OH SHE TOTALLY THOUGHT YOU WERE PROPOSING," and it's totally embarrassing. This is her Yak butter tea moment. Excellent.

Over at YETI, Bernadette is all about the crazy and puts Marc, Betty, and "chair" (since Matt is missing) into a group together for their final project. Marc asks for a new team and Bernadette says she could be his team and give him a taste of someone with "experience." She's hitting on a gay guy. Did she not get the Cougar memo? "I'm good with Betty and 'Chair,' " he says as Matt comes rushing in. He went to see an "amazing exhibit at the Whitney" and he lost track of time. And his job, apparently.

Their final project? They have to do a photo shoot and feature article for whatever magazine they draw out of her handbag (don't ask). And what editors-in-training could afford a real photo shoot? Jesus. Betty picks "music" as the type of magazine they will be doing. Bernadette makes her draw again and she gets "physical science." Their topic? Both. "You didn't think I'd make this easy, did you?" Bernadette asks. No, crazy bitch, they didn't.

Now the bad news. Due to hiring freezes in the industry, YETI is only setting up job interviews for three people - only the winning team will get interviews. "That is just the way reality is, and sometimes reality sucks," Bernadette says. I'll say. I wish I had something to quench my thirst.

This girl-on-girl action would horrify the straight, too!

OH MY GOD! Did you guys know there is a new cherry antioxidant product available?!?!?! I wish I had known in advance of this commercial that just bashed me over the head with their anti-aging chemicals. Damn! Well, okay, the can is a pretty color.

Over at the apartment formerly known as Betty's, she, Marc, and Matt are all trying to come up with non-sucky ideas for the magazine and are losing the battle. Matt suggests jazz musicians playing telescopes instead of instruments. Marc wants to do something amazing and Betty says, "U2 on the space shuttle!" She is so stupid sometimes. Then Amanda starts screaming about some YouTube video and Matt runs over. He should really consider adding Ritalin to whatever antibiotics he must be on non-stop thanks to his sexoholicism.

Betty suggests using the planetarium and Marc says something about their laser light show sans Pink Floyd, but instead using a current musician and style them 70s glam rock. You know, he really could run his own magazine if he would escape the Wil-menator. Betty's article idea is how we search to connect in this vast universe and music unites us. "I have no idea what that means but it sounded great!" Marc says.

Betty will write the article, book the photographer (with what money???) and the caterer, because what shoot can go on without doughnuts. I really wish I had started this recap spelling that "donuts," is would have been so much easier. Marc says he'll find the band - any good musician is only 5 degrees of gay away. Amanda and Matt the Tool are cracking up at a YouTube gopher video. They should totally do it, but they probably already have and have just forgotten the tryst.

I guess they have to imitate gopher
because they are too tired of beaver.

"I'm worried that Mr. Short-Attention Span over there really isn't focused," Marc says, more politely than I would have. Betty isn't worried and asks Matt if there was something in particular he wanted to do. He says he knows someone at the Planetarium and "will give her a call." I'm going to take a wild guess and say Mommy, but let's wait and see if my spoiler alert is true.

Allison:

Yes, I agree. Where is Gio? Betty has poor, poor taste in men, although after what Matt has turned into, even Henry is starting to look better. Ah, telenovellas! Or telenovas. Whatever.
