Ugly Betty s04e06 Episode Script

Backseat Betty

Good morning! Somebody didn't get home until 10:30 last night, huh? Well, some of the editors wanted to go out, so I went with them.
And I got a tattoo! - What? Who's Stu? Stu? It's supposed to say "Hot Stuff.
" I sweated it off.
It was hot in the club.
Your mother would kill me.
Mi hija, it's not like you to go out on a work night.
So? Maybe I want to mix it up.
Matt's moving on, he's dating someone new.
I think it's time for me to get back on the market.
Hey, what about that nice guy who does the bookkeeping for Archie? - Larry? - Yeah.
I don't know.
When he gets nervous, he does this sniffing thing.
I don't think Betty wants a sniffer.
Aunt Betty, did Marc say when the cheerleading uniforms will be ready? Yes.
He's gonna drop them off on his way to work.
Oh, thank God.
Those hems have not been brought up since 2003.
They might as well just be cheering in burkas.
Who roped you into helping the cheerleaders? It was Marc's idea.
He said if I'm gonna make it through high school, I have to be friends with the popular-slash-mean girls.
That's his advice? What does it matter? The point is he's having a better time at school.
Okay.
So whoever's free this morning, we need help decorating the gym for Homecoming.
What? Why do I feel like I should be hearing scary music? Your mother doesn't have the best association with Homecoming.
Do you want to know why? Because the year that I was nominated Homecoming Queen, my father told me I could not attend the ceremony! Hilda, I was protecting you! - You were ashamed of me! - Guys! - Never! - Papi! Justin, your mom was six months pregnant with you, so Grandpa didn't think it was a good idea for her to go.
- Because he was ashamed of me! - I was protecting you! Lies! But you know that you are a blessing in my life, honey, right? - Yeah.
- That is true.
How dare you say that? We'll come and help.
I could have been queen, Betty.
I could have ruled all of this.
I really think all you got was a bunch of carnations and a ride on a golf cart.
Yeah, to wave to my subjects.
My God.
Is that Bobby Talercio? Bobby Talercio was the most dangerous guy I ever went out with.
One time this guy called me a whore, and Bobby slammed his head against the wall and made him apologize.
I felt like such a princess.
- Hilda? - Hi! Get out of here! No way.
- Oh, my God.
Look at you.
- I know, right? - You look great.
- Oh, thank you.
Jeez, don't tell me this is little Chipmunk.
This is little Chipmunk? - Oh, baby.
Look at that face.
It is.
The little Ah! All right, look, I'd love to stay and talk, but I've got to start a lesson.
Oh, you're teaching Driver's Ed.
Yeah.
Part-time.
You know, family's got the car dealership, so I volunteer a few of the cars.
- Nice.
- Look, I'll - I'll see you around, all right? - Okay.
See you later.
My God.
He has still got it.
- I used to have such a crush on him.
- No kidding.
- You knew? - Please! If it weren't for you hanging around so much, Bobby would have been Justin's father.
Remember the summer he worked at Asadero's? You came back three times a day for Freeze-atas.
Yeah, I gained 9 pounds that summer.
But you lost it.
Remember how you guys used to sit on the hood of his car? I used to always wish that would be me.
That would have been funny.
Why? Because you could never go out with a guy like Bobby.
Why not? Because you're a good girl, and he is a very bad boy.
So? You don't know me.
Maybe I could.
Oh, please.
Bobby smoked.
Okay, here you go, top and skirt.
For you.
Say, "Thank you.
" See, Ava, if the skirt doesn't hit you in the exact right place, - it could make your leg look chunky.
- Oh, my God.
You saved my life.
- Hey, Justin.
Where's your skirt, huh? - Shut up, Kevin.
Okay, so let's talk about what just happened.
A lump of boy made fun of you and you did nothing.
What am I supposed to do? Get ahead of the joke, son.
If he asks where your skirt is, say it's at the dry cleaner with your opera cape.
If you show them that you're in on the joke, then they'll think they're not getting to you, and they'll stop making fun of you.
Okay, Miss Woman, are we all happy now? Is there anything else my friend Justin can do for you? Not unless he knows any routines.
We need fresh moves for Homecoming.
Well, you're in luck.
It just so happens that Justin here has the moves of a young, Mexican Beyoncé.
I And he would be happy to choreograph it for you.
Cool.
See you at practice.
Okay.
What did you do? I mean, I helped out in junior high, but this is Homecoming.
This is like the Broadway of school.
Worry not, youngling.
It just so happens I was head cheerleader in college, and I happen to know a move or two.
So this water is from the Community of the Phoenix? Yeah.
It's full of vitamins.
And, look, the cups have inspirational sayings on them from Bennett.
"If it's a mess, it's a message.
" I think I get it.
You know, the Community's really changed my life, Betty.
I just I feel better.
You know, more energy, Natalie's got me on this great diet.
It's raw food, Phoenix water, and that's it.
You don't think you need more than that? You want half my muffin? Muffin? Or poison.
Come on.
I thought that was a muffin.
You know, cleansing is so important.
Once you get rid of all those toxins, it's just amazing the clarity you have.
It's also crazy how much you have to pee.
Excuse me.
Should I be worried about my son? I'd ask him myself, but we're not really in that place right now.
Well, he is acting a little loopy.
But if this Community is helping him deal with Molly's death, then I'm trying to keep an open mind about it.
I do like his new necklace.
Ah! Just the girl I wanted to see.
I was talking to Betty, Mrs.
Meade.
You're not a girl.
I would never call you a girl.
Well, I'm glad that's cleared up.
Now I won't spend the afternoon texting and worrying about boys.
- I should talk less.
- Matt? Oh, uh, your assignment for the "Fearless" issue.
Oh! Thank you! Wait, wait, wait Matt? "Horoscopes" and "Cosmetic of the Month"? I'm not getting a features article? Look, I really wanted to give you one.
But once the senior editors picked what they wanted, all that was left was a POV piece.
You know, an editor's personal story of fearlessness.
- Oh! - I just thought that Megan would be better for that.
- Can you sign this? - Why? I'm just as fearless as Megan.
What Are you smiling? Why are you smiling? - No, I'm not, I - Thank you.
Okay, I am.
But it's just Look, don't get mad, but when I think of you, I think of someone who's a little, I don't know, cautious.
Well, maybe you're thinking of the old Betty, 'cause the new Betty is fearless.
Look, no bangs! Okay, look, nothing is set in stone.
Give me some pitches.
I'd love to hear them.
Okay.
But something a little bit more dangerous than turning in a story without proofreading it.
I would never do that.
I do not appreciate blackmail calls in the middle of a workday! Detective, you will have the money when I get the money.
Never cover up a murder for your daughter.
Well, if you have one fault, it's that you love too much.
Willie, I'm really starting to get worried.
If you can't come up with the money, you and Nico will go to jail! I'm aware of that, Marc! Get on the phone.
I want you to call Vogue, Elle, Bazaar.
Tell them that Wilhelmina Slater is available for modeling.
Willing to do a cover.
What? It's just models today tend to be They often And this is a terrible thing, but usually what they're looking for Yes, I know I'm not 19.
But there are plenty of models that are in their late 30s.
- They can do wonders with airbrushing.
- Yes.
A Wilhelmina Slater cover will sell magazines.
So unless you can come up with another way to get money, start calling! Daniel, you think of me as fearless, right? I mean, someone who takes risks? Sure.
I mean, look at you.
No bangs, right? Yeah, okay.
It just seems like everyone thinks of me as this cautious person.
And maybe I was in the past.
But now I want to be fearless.
- Well, you can be.
- How? Well Bobby! Hey, what's up, Chipmunk? Well, it's not Chipmunk anymore.
It's Betty.
And this bad girl wants to date you.
Hey.
Sweetie, what's up? Oh! - Hey, you okay? - Yeah, I'm fine.
Okay.
Uh Sorry, I wanted to ask you something.
Yeah, anything.
I was wondering if I mean, only if you have time If maybe What do you need, Chipmunk? If you would want to - teach me how to drive? - Yeah, of course! Is that all you wanted? I mean, you seem a little nervous.
Well, I also wanted this.
Is that all you wanted? I mean, you seem a little nervous.
Yeah, that's it.
- Hey! - Hey.
How did cheerleading practice go? This kid is a star.
Honestly, it was like he was born to yell at girls.
Yay! Oh, Marc showed me this routine.
It got them going crazy.
- Ready? - Okay.
Bravo! It kind of put me on the map in college.
And we got invited to Homecoming tomorrow! Good! That's really good! - That's so great! - That's wonderful, hijo! There's Archie.
Marc, thank you so, so much.
Yeah.
- Gracias, Marc.
- Maybe this time I'll get to go.
- I was protecting you! - Ashamed! Okay, a glass of water and two saltines, and I'm out of here.
Now, look at me.
Everything is gonna be great and I will tell you why.
If anybody gives you any crap, you know that you are smarter and funnier.
It's just the truth.
I thought being the girlfriend of a politician would be glamorous.
I didn't think I would spend my Saturday dressed like Barbara Bush, watching him plant a tree in front of the Shalom Retirement Home.
- That's not Archie.
- What? What is Bobby Talercio doing here? He's here for me.
He's gonna teach me how to drive.
- You already know how to drive.
- Not a stick shift.
- Why do you need to learn that? - Automatics are safer, mi hija.
I know, papi.
Exactly why I want to learn.
I think it would make a great article for the "Fearless" issue.
What's scarier than driving a stick in the city? All the teachers in Queens and you pick Bobby? Mmm-hmm.
Betty, I don't like that guy.
He's a thug.
I'm sure he's the one who stole our baby Jesus.
Papi, come on.
He's a nice guy.
Oh, Hilda, Archie's here.
That is wonderful, Marc! And you didn't think I could get a cover.
Now, tell me, where am I going? Hot Flash would be thrilled to have you on its cover.
In fact, as soon as I heard, I did a mock-up of what I thought it should look like.
Cackle all you want, Claire.
But if I agree to do this, I want final approval on all the photos and, of course, my usual fee.
The fee is $500 and a liter of diet ginger ale.
And I'd take it.
Where else are you going to find a magazine willing to put women of our age on the cover? How dare you even suggest we're near the same age? And I won't agree to such a small fee.
Well, it's the best I can do, Willie.
Now, Hot Flash is just an insert, so you might have some staples in your face.
Oh, but you've had that before.
Okay, okay.
Easy on the clutch.
You want to be in third.
- I think I am in third.
- No, you're in second.
So, this is for an article, huh? - Yeah.
- Am I gonna be in it? Maybe.
I can't believe little Betty's all grown up.
You know, a big shot at Mode.
I mean, I still think of you in footy pajamas.
Oh, God.
Please don't think of me that way.
I wear regular nightgowns now.
Like, you can see my feet.
I get it.
You're all grown up.
Yeah, I know.
Yeah, I've traveled, had my own apartment.
Boyfriends.
Actually, I just got out of a relationship, so I guess I'm back on the market.
Oh! Okay.
Okay, ease up.
Press on the clutch.
Press.
There you go.
Okay, now, now look.
You don't want to grip it too hard, okay? You just want to gently ease it, guide it right where you want it to go.
Hey! Watch what you're doing, dumbass! I'm sorry! Okay, sweetie, don't worry about it.
Put the car in neutral.
Good job.
Pull up the emergency brake.
I'll be right back.
Okay.
You've got to watch what you're doing, four-eyes! Hey.
Come here! Now, you were jaywalking when there's a clearly marked crosswalk.
And worse than that, you were rude to this young lady! Now, apologize! - I'm sorry.
- It's fine.
That's better.
Go.
Go cross at the light.
It's the law, you bum.
You okay? Amanda.
What are you doing here on a Saturday? Well, I'm not here because Matt came in the last two out of four Saturdays, if that's what you're implying.
But since you brought it up, do you see Matt and I as a couple? Look, Amanda, you can't force someone to have feelings for you.
I mean, you tried that with me and it didn't work.
I gave you nothing.
Honestly, I kind of used you.
Thanks, I feel better.
And at least I'll always have that cold sore.
Look, all I'm saying is you can change that pattern.
I don't know if it's all the herbs I've been taking or the fact that I haven't eaten in four days, but I feel like I'm seeing you for the first time.
It's like I can see what's missing in your life.
- Matt.
- Self-esteem.
Amanda, I think you should attend these workshops - we're having here this weekend.
- You mean the dead people thing? No.
Look, the Community's about so much more than that.
It's about finding your self-worth, reaching your potential.
Look, you're always saying you want to move forward in your life, right? I really think this might help you get there.
Okay, I'll stay.
If Matt sees me here, he'll think I'm super complicated.
Listen, you did a great job today, Chipmunk.
- Yeah? - You did good.
Hey, you only hit one pedestrian, huh? All right.
- Yeah.
Sorry.
- Thanks.
I was just thinking, you know, it's Saturday night.
You probably got big plans, right? No, I'm just going to do what I always do.
I go down to Mad Dog's and shoot pool.
Oh, yeah, I know the place.
The one with the sign, "Warm beer, lousy food.
" My dad says that place is run by the Mob.
My uncle runs it.
Oh! - It's not so bad.
- I've always wanted to check it out.
You should.
Come by any time.
Come tonight.
- Really? - Yeah.
Yeah! Okay.
Maybe.
Yeah, you know, if I have time.
Papi, I'm going to be out late tonight! I have plans! Well, now you have other plans.
Betty, meet my bookkeeper, Larry.
He's here for you! We're all gonna have a double date.
Won't that be fun? So that turned out to be a pretty big war between me and that squirrel.
I was pretty sure he was the one stealing my carrots.
So you know what I did? What? I set up one of those long-exposure cameras.
I got it from that catalog they give you on the plane when I was visiting my mom in Syracuse.
She just redid the roof.
But that's another story.
- I forgot what I was saying.
- The squirrel, man.
Oh, right.
Well, you'll never guess who turned out to be the carrot thief.
The squirrel? Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
It was the squirrel.
Man, I'm so surprised at how late it got.
What are you talking about? It's 9:00.
Why don't we all play a game or something? - Since when do you like games? - I love games.
I have so much work that I have to do in the morning, and I really should just hit the hay.
But, Larry, it was really nice to meet you.
You, too.
Have a good night.
- Good night.
- Good night.
- Here you go.
- Thank you.
I don't know about you, but I am stoked for this weekend.
And, yes, I just said "stoked.
" Hey, Natalie.
I'm doing it, too.
I'm going to get cured or whatever.
Yes.
Daniel brought a friend to join us this weekend.
Started recruiting for you already.
Maybe I'll earn something free.
So far, I am loving everything.
Except for these beads.
I don't love the way they frame my chesticles.
They'll look better when we shave your head.
What? Kidding.
We always say that to the newcomers.
We like to have fun.
So are you doing the whole weekend? Uh I hope so.
That reminds me, there's this literature on phasing - I really wanted to show you.
Come on.
- You did not tell me I had to read.
She is gonna ruin this.
I need him to get to Level Five.
Pull it together, Natalie.
There's still time.
Well, we're running out of time! Isn't there another way you can get money? Oh, for God's sake, Nico, lower your voice.
Angela Lansbury lives next door, and she'd love to rat me out to the co-op board.
Why am I the only one freaking out? Because I took two of my headache pills.
And there is one other option.
- Well, then do it.
- It's not that simple.
It would mean giving up everything.
My career, my life here.
Everything.
- What is it? - It's not what.
It's who.
Connor Owens.
How was your night? - Hi! I went out.
- Yeah, I got that.
Hey.
I was just making sure Betty got in all right.
You know? There were always a lot of rough guys in this neighborhood.
I guess that was me.
You look good, Hilda.
I usually look a lot better.
I threw on this robe by accident.
Okay.
I'll see you tomorrow, Chipmunk.
Okay.
You are really something.
You blow off a perfectly nice guy like Larry to sneak around with Bobby? Oh, come on, Hilda! You said it yourself.
Larry's a sniffer.
Well, so what? You're a chewer, I'm a yeller.
We all got something.
Look, I just wanted to go out and have some fun, okay? Is that so bad? Well, you are not gonna have fun with that one.
Trust me.
He is exactly the wrong kind of guy for you.
And what makes Larry the right guy? That he's boring and nerdy? Yeah, well, that boring and nerdy guy has feelings, okay? And let me tell you, you were really mean tonight.
What do you mean? He heard you, Betty.
He heard you leave.
"Oh, God, I'm so tired! I'm gonna go to bed!" Oh, my God.
I'm sorry! I didn't mean for him to hear me! Well, I could call him.
I can apologize.
Well, he wanted to come to Homecoming with us.
- But since you hate him - I didn't say that I hate him.
Well, maybe we could all go together.
Get something to eat after.
Yeah.
I guess I could do that.
With the money Connor stole, he practically wiped out Meade Publications.
How much money was there? Enough to pay off the detective and to live very well for the rest of our lives.
But I mean, you said he could be anywhere.
How could you ever find him? I won't.
He'll find me.
Come away with me.
Wilhelmina, you have always lived your life a certain way.
But when you're ready to pursue another option with me, just put it out there, I'll find you again.
Could you do that? You'd give up everything? God, Nico, I don't know.
Mom, do you still love him? Then you have to do this.
And not for me.
Do this for yourself.
I must admit, I am intrigued by this emergency Sunday meeting.
What is it now? You're dropping modeling to start a line of skateboards? I'm afraid it's nothing quite so colorful, Claire.
I wanted to give you plenty of time to find my replacement.
- Excuse me? - I quit.
- Didn't stall once.
- Damn! You know there's nothing sexier than a woman that can shift like a pro.
- And you were scared to drive a stick.
- I know! You were fearless.
Fearless.
That's great.
- Oh, God.
- What? What's the matter? - I sort of have a date with that guy.
- Which one? - The guy in the dad jeans.
- You don't seem like you want to go.
Not really.
I mean, he's a nice guy, but Yeah, well, blow him off.
Let's go get a Freeze-ata.
Are you crazy? I could never do that.
I'd say that's a good enough reason to do it.
Easy on the clutch.
Sorry, Larry! Betty! Okay, kids, it's get-real time.
We just spent two hours with a fat chick telling us how to breathe.
Didn't we learn that when we were, like, five? Hey, you just got to give it time.
Right, Natalie? Or it's just not for her and she goes home.
- Jeez.
- Wow.
Good thing she doesn't work at the welcome table.
Look, I'm sorry, but we've wasted half the weekend.
Daniel, we have to get to Level Five.
Yeah, or we just do it another time.
Wait, what's Level Five? Is that where you touch each other's junk and call it a massage? - I want to do it.
- No, it's not! Look, why is she even here? She's not even in our energy group.
Did you just really say that? Natalie.
Amanda, we take this stuff pretty seriously.
Daniel, I know and that's what scares me.
I think all this cleansing and vitamins isn't just giving you bad breath, it's giving you bad judgment.
Why can't you see that all this is crap? Look, just because you don't get it doesn't mean it's crap.
Daniel, I know you miss Molly, but You have no idea what I'm going through.
You know what? This was a mistake.
You should go.
Daniel.
I can't believe I did that.
That is so not me.
Don't feel bad, Chipmunk.
The guy's not right for you.
That's it.
That's what I said.
But everyone else thinks he's perfect for me.
Why do people think they know me so well? People like to do that.
You know, they like to put you in a box.
Makes it easier for them.
Listen, you don't let them do that, all right? You're pretty, you're a smart girl.
You can date anybody you want.
You've got to try this.
I mixed the cherry with the blue one and the root beer.
It's disgusting and delicious.
You've got to try it.
Look, Bobby, this is how I see it.
You get me, I get you.
Let's make it work.
Ow! Hey.
Put your tongue to the roof of your mouth.
There you go.
You all right? You know, it's so crazy seeing you again.
Yeah.
A lot has changed.
I can't even remember why Hilda and I ever broke up.
Oh, I know.
I went to jail.
Yeah, anyway, I think about Hilda a lot.
It kills me to think I ever let her go.
Is she seeing anyone? Yeah.
She is.
I guess we always want what we can't have, right? Yeah.
I should probably get to Homecoming now.
I heard your friend left.
You got the beads, didn't you? Ah! It's so hard, isn't it? The decision to let go of the people holding us back.
But it means you know what you want, Daniel.
And it means I was right.
It's time for you to go to Level Five.
Bennett, what is Level Five? It's where you're reunited with Molly.
You mean in like a spiritual "she's all around me" kind of way? No.
I mean actually be with her.
Feel her, touch her.
Your relationship with Molly doesn't have to be over.
I'm sorry.
You have to know that sounds - Crazy? - Yeah.
Well, maybe it is.
Maybe your friend is right.
And you're certainly free to leave.
But tonight, when you lay in bed, missing Molly, I hope you don't regret having given up the possibility of seeing her again.
Papi, I'm sorry I'm late.
Is Larry upset? No, actually, I think he was relieved.
He was worried he wasn't wearing enough layers.
Archie drove him home.
Oh.
Well, why aren't you inside? I needed a few minutes away from your sister.
Yeah, I think I need a few minutes to myself, too.
She's been in such a mood.
She won't stop with the I know, I know.
You were ashamed of her.
I was protecting her! What did I say? After much consideration, I must announce that the "Fearless" shoot in the Bahamas will be my last.
I am resigning from Mode to pursue other options.
Options? Now, I know that over the years, the press has had a lot of fun at my expense.
You've called me the "meaner Hitler.
" You've said that I was completely bald and my wigs were made from orphan hair.
You've had me sleeping with everyone from Madonna to JFK, only one of which is true.
Yes, we've had our fun over the years.
But I ask for one thing in return.
That you quote me exactly as I say, "Wilhelmina Slater is leaving to pursue other options.
" So, Betty, I hear from some of the cheerleaders that we're dating.
How serious are we? I need to introduce you to my mother? Oh, my God.
I did not say that.
I swear.
I mean, I didn't not say that.
This is really embarrassing.
Hey.
Come on, Chipmunk, don't worry about it.
Kids say stuff, so what? Look, when's our next lesson? Bobby, I don't think we should do any more lessons.
Why? Sweetie, you need more practice.
Yeah.
It wasn't really ever about the driving.
I just wanted an excuse to hang out with you.
Get out of here.
What do you mean? I guess I just wanted to be the kind of girl who could date a guy like you.
What do you mean, "A guy like me"? I don't even know what that means.
In my family, you know, I'm a wuss.
No! Come on, you're cool.
I had the biggest crush on you when I was a kid.
- Yeah.
Yeah, you did.
- Wait, you knew? Yeah, I knew.
I mean, come on, you were always around.
If you'd have given Hilda and me five minutes alone, - I'd have been Justin's father.
- Yeah, that's what Hilda said.
I just remember all I ever wanted was to kiss you in the hallway like you kissed all your girlfriends.
We're in a hallway.
No.
Thank you, but I'm okay.
All right.
I'll see you around, Betty.
Wait.
That was sweet.
Listen, don't worry about anybody putting you in a box.
You were the weirdest kid I knew, ever, okay? You still are a little bit.
And that's a good thing.
You understand? Shamans in South America have used this tea for centuries.
It enables them to become intermediaries between the spirit world and our world.
Oh, that's nasty.
Try it with a squeeze of lemon.
It really helps.
- Hilda, what's wrong? - Nothing's wrong, Betty.
You want to make out with Bobby in the hallway, go ahead.
I guess that's who you are now, right? Don't worry, Hilda.
I'm still exactly who you want me to be.
I will always be your less attractive, less cool, geeky little sister.
So no need to get jealous.
What are you talking about? I'm not jealous.
Well, you're certainly acting that way.
Which is stupid, because I may have just kissed Bobby, but all he ever talks about is you.
I've got to get inside.
The ceremony's about to start.
I'm sensing tension between the Sisters Suarez.
Or as your people call it, la pasión.
- It's nothing.
- Ava, why aren't you practicing? Your high V's are too low and your low V's are too high.
And I won't even bring up your candlestick.
- I feel bad about Justin.
- Justin? Why? - I really like him.
It wasn't my idea.
- What? What wasn't your idea? And this year's Homecoming King is Brandon Floyd! - We're leaving? - We've got to go, right now.
- Why? - I'll explain later.
We've just got to go now.
And this year's Homecoming Queen is Justin Suarez! I'm gonna sue this school.
Come on, son.
Let's go home.
Come on.
Justin, let's just go.
Come on.
Justin, you can't go up there.
It's okay.
Right on, Justine! What am I gonna do? I've got to do something.
You can't always protect him, mi hija.
Oh, my God! Thank you so much.
I'm so honored.
Nothing can ruin this day.
Even this tacky baby's breath.
But, I mean, come on, guys.
I think you can do a little bit better for your queen.
I'd say, "Off with your heads," but for some of you that might not matter.
Snap! As much as I hate giving up an accessory, I think there's someone who deserves this a little bit more than I do.
My mom.
She's an amazing person and should have gotten this 15 years ago.
But that's kind of my fault.
She's with me every step of the way, and that's pretty hard, because I'm a high-maintenance kid.
So thank you.
Justin, you were amazing! - You were smart and sassy and fresh.
- So handsome! So cool! And in 10 years, you're going to be at the top of your game.
And that guy is going to be bald and he won't even be able to see his feet.
Yeah! What you did up there took guts.
Honey, you know I love you, right? No matter who you are.
So what those kids are saying about Mom.
It's a joke.
I'm just playing along.
I'm not gay.
Then he's not.
- I can't sleep.
- Me neither.
I don't want you to be anybody but who you want to be.
I know.
I guess now I'm a woman who knows how to drive stick shift.
Hell, yeah! So I figured out what I'm going to pitch for the "Fearless" issue.
You making out with Bobby in the hallway? No.
You.
- Yeah, right.
- I'm serious.
Hilda, you're the bravest person I know.
You dated guys like Bobby.
You went to school when you were pregnant.
And you held your head up high no matter what anybody said about you.
And you raised the bravest kid in the whole world.
I did, didn't I? Thanks, that's sweet.
Don't forget to mention the salon.
It's actually really funny that you were jealous of me.
What? I was not jealous of you.
I wasn't.
I was jealous of me.
I mean, you know, the person that I was.
When did I get so boring? Are you not happy with Archie? No.
No, no, no.
No.
Archie's great, I'm just talking.
I don't know.
Did you know that Archie is short for Archibald? Hilda and Archibald.
Given the situation, it's going to be a lot harder to track the stolen money.
- What's going on? - Excuse me.
It's about Connor Owens.
They found his body washed up on a beach in Panama.
He's dead.
I'm so sorry, Wilhelmina.
Thank you for telling me.
