Ugly Betty Returns With Fireworks!

Ugly Betty Returns With Fireworks!

So “Ugly Betty” is the first show I’ve caught up on, so let’s get to dishin it!

uglybettyfire.jpg This show centered around Betty’s 24th birthday. She and Henry had plans to go to the Poconos, until Charile the “Baby Mama” showed up to ruin that. Charlie then set out to ruin all Betty’s other plans she made with Henry, such as dinner and a concert in the park with fireworks. Gio returned in this episode and became her knight in shining armor. He found her at a restaurant to deliver a message that Henry couldn’t meet her, because he had Charlie issues. Betty was unintentionally stood up by him, he tried to call her and tell her not to go, but Justin bedazzled her phone for her birthday and it interfered with her reception. Too funny! The episode ended with Betty and Gio seeing makeshift fireworks which came from some welders working on a building.

I have to say, the more I see of them, the more I like Gio and Betty together. Henry is getting on my every last nerves the way he lets Charlie play him. I still don’t believe Charlie is carrying his kid. Heck I wouldn’t be surprised if she lost the baby or was never pregnant and is faking it at this point. Pillow baby!

Other storylines going on in the episode . . . Willy set out to sabotage Daniel and Renee’s relationship, why we really don’t know. Clearly she can’t be protecting Daniel, she has to be looking out for her own butt for some reason. She told Daniel to ask Renee about “Stoneybrook.” Willy came between them, but they patched things up quickly. Renee claimed Stoneybrook was her college, she had a breakdown there and has been taking pills ever since. They then decided to move in together. Okay talk about fast moving here, this isn’t going to end well for poor Daniel.

Meanwhile Christina, locked in Willy’s place and determined to find out what is really up with Willy and her nutty sister, hid a baby monitor to listen to conversations. Renee got Mark drunk and got the truth out of him about Bradford’s sperm, which Christina must have heard no? Renee used it to blackmail Willy to leave her and Daniel alone. Later Willy caught the baby monitor right before she was to reveal a huge secret about her sister. Willy had Mark break into Daniel’s apartment to switch Renee’s pills with something else, which would drive her nuts again. Willy told Marc that he may think she’s the evil sister, but even she stops short of murder. Woah! I wonder what she did, and what’s with the hatred of candles Renee has? Also the scene with Daniel catching Marc looking at his undies, and Marc telling Daniel he wanted him to cover, was hilarious! Best scene of the show. The second best scene goes to Hilda for her confrontation with Charlie and flashing her nails, which aren’t just decorative.

The last storyline going on involved Claire starting a magazine for older women called Hot Flash. Alexis didn’t believe the magazine was going to be a success, it was a project they gave their mom to keep her occupied, but she was spending too much money and had to cut her off. After a pep-talk from Betty about how resourceful Claire is, Claire brought in ex-cons on a prison release program to help her with the magazine.

  1. I like Gio and Betty together, their cute. And they’re great when they argue and banter. I’m a little curious that Christina doesn’t seem to be missed from work and I agree she must have heard that it’s Bradford’s baby. This episode didn’t seem to have lots of content but I’m just so happy it’s back.
