Ugly Betty

Aah!

Okay, no hat today then.

Ah. sorry. I was an accident.

Please. I was getting that thing off her head one way or another.

Does anyone know where my computer is?

It's not in my bag. oh, I used it last night. I think it's on the couch.

Couch. justin, please sit. have some breakfast.

Uh, too late. since we've been staying with aunt betty,

It takes me a month to get to school in queens.

Well, if it makes you feel any better,

My big meeting with the lady gaga people is today. oh, my god!

Only one more week till you get to meet your favorite pop star.

Oh, my god. aunt betty, I am clinging to that.

Now I feel bad about that hat. don't worry.

Bye! bye. I love you.

Bye! thank you so much for doing that.

He's been so down lately. no problem. his house burnt down.

That's a lot for aid.

Where is my computer? he said couch, right? oh, you know what?

I used it after him.

I was e-mailing clients to get them to come here.

What, you're--you're- you're taking clients here?

Yeah! that way, I can charge manhattan prices.

That's cool, right? yeah. whatever you need.

Just... you know, use that hair catchy thingy.

Old plumbing. did you find it?

I think I put your computer on one of the suitcases.

Check justin's. oh, and I packed a lunch for you.

Ah! yes! here it is.

Sorry, mija.

We're making life so hard for you, aren't we?

Oh, papi, stop. come on, it's nothing. this is fun.

All right, I gotta go.

Ah! betty! daniel! hey!

What are you doing here like that?

I, uh, you know, slept here. you know, um...

Amanda and I kinda have, uh, this casual thing going.

No strings. no drama.

It's nice.

That's great.

So, uh... how's everything going over there

With your whole family?

It's... gotta be pretty rough, huh?

Yeah, it's... got its challenges.

You know, nothing I can't handle

Till the insurance check comes in

And we can start to rebuild.

Could we talk about this ler when you have pants on? of course.

Great.

I need you to oversee the marchesa test shoot,

Get daniel's thoughts

And then bring it to me so I can do the real work.

Got it. fake notes from daniel, real notes from you.

So w--why did we stop? did you break a heel?

Did I step in your shadow again?

Don.

Donald jones.

Wanda?

it that you?

Yes!

Well, it's-- it's "wilhelmina" now.

Right. of course. hi. I'm marc st. j--

You look... terrific,

25 years later.

Uh, how long you in town for?

Actually, I moved here about a year ago.

A year ago? you should've called me.

Oh. yeah, I don't know about that.

We're not quite the same people we were back then.

Well, I am the same old regular guy.

But you!

You've gotten quite a reputation.

What was it they said about you in the paper the other day?

They called you a-a " power hgry fashion nazi."

But that's a good thing in your business though, right? uh--

Yes, yes. we were very proud of that. i--you know,

I am sti the same old wanda I used to be.

Still fun, still sweet.

this is all for show.

You should--you should call me. you'll see.

I-i-i'll check my schedule.

Marc.

Justin!

Hi. what are you doing here?

Um, I need to talk to you in private.

Um, is my aunt betty here yet? nope. about ten minutes away.

Good. I have to tell you something huge,

But you have to promise not to tell any of my family. okay?

Okay.

It's about something that I did...

With a friend from acting class.

Oh.

Yes. yes.

Sit down,

Take your time...

And, um, let it out.

These things can be difficult.

Trust me, I know.

It wasn't too long ago that yours truly

Sat down wand had sympat a very similar conversation.

No way. you burned down your house, too?

Boy, did i. y--i'm sorry, what?

I smoked a cigarette in my house,

And I think I started the fire.

Thank you for coming over.

I really need to talk.

Yeah. what's up? you're stress cooking,

And your shoulders are all the way up by your mustache.

Yeah, I think I did a terrible thing.

I promised hilda I'd hire an electrician

To hang my classy new chandelier.

But when you hired sal the electrician,

It turned out to be sally the electrici-anna,

And you two had a steamy love affair.

But little did you know sally was married,

And now her hubby's coming to get ya. no. that's not it at all.

Are you sure?

'cause I totally thought that's where you were going with that.

I need more bacon.

No, no, no, i-i-i never hired an electrician.

I did the wiring myself,

And I think I may have caused our house fire. uncle papi!

Okay, I need to ask you something,

And you have to tell me the truth.

I'm all about the truth, all right? ask away.

Did you burn down my house? what?!

What the hell kind of question is that? no!

I'm sorry. it was rude.

Did your family burn down my house?

If you're implying what I think you're implying...

Well, bobby, don't you think it is a little bit weird

That my salon went up in flames just two days after I joked

That the stupid place should burn down

So I could collect the insurance?

Listen to me, for the last time, okay?

My family is not in the mafia.

Well, that's not the story on the street...

"mobby."

I'm gonna pretend, right,

That you didn't just call me "mobby."

And you know what else?

Accusing my family of something like that

When you haven't even met them yet--

You know, that takes a big fat set of kiwis.

Oh, hi. good morning. could you just hold this? thanks.

Did you just get here?

What makes you say that? amanda, it's 11:30.

Big whoop. I'm filling in at reception today.

Besides, I'm sleeping with the boss, so it's all okay.

Oh, how's that going for you?

It is so good. the sex is great,

And he doesn't mind if I date.

And I don't mind that he's picking out models at 1:00.

Ooh, he is? hmm, this is fun.

That's the jackass who upstaged me at fashion week.

What's he doing here?

Decorating my world. I don't know what it is.

There's something that bugs the hell out of me about him.

Do me favor. find out why he's here.

On it.

A recent study found

That over 50% of american women wear glasses.

And because lady gaga is so well-known

For heoutlandish eyewear,

We thought she would be the perfect model for "mode's"

Top list of fashion forward prescription glasses.

We're calling the spread

"lady gaga's lady goggles."

No, we're not.

We're not.

Betty, uh, less talking, more pictures.

Show us the mock-ups, please.

Sorry.

Um, my--ugh--my dessert.

My dad--he, um...

He packed my dessert...

And it must've gotten wedged in my computer.

Um... he likes to do that.

Stop. we're nauseated.

Okay. uh...

Still works.

Yay. uh, all right. so as you will see,

The angle for the spread is...

What is that, and why is it singing?

I don't know, my nephew was using my computer

we're in...., this doesn't work

The flan is making it sticky.

Um, I'm sorry. my nephew must've replaced my lady gaga file

With his lady gaga file.

But you know what? I can run to grab my flash drive.

Enough! gentlemen, let's give betty five minutes

To go get her flash drive so she can give it to tracy,

Who will be taking over this account.

Hello?

Oh. hey.

Hi. need some help?

Yes. I'm betty suarez. there was a fire at my family's home.

I called the insurance company

To see when the check would be coming, and they said

They can't send it until you determine the cause. yeah, that's right.
