Look at them,all nervous.
I remember when I interviewed to be your assistant.
so that's the group H.R.Sent me?
Kind of a motley looking group.
I only talked to them for a little while,but I really like gavin.
Which one's he?
I don't want to do this interview today.
I'm starting to feel queasy.
Maybe because you're eating chocolate-covered pretzels for breakfast.
Thanks.
I would've eaten the whole bag.
see?
Which one of those goobers is gonna do that for me?
Not too long ago,I was one of those goobers.
All right.
Promise me you're gonna pick someone good.
- I promise. - Good.
Now do you need anything else?
Actually...
fact-checking?
I know you're swamped.
Come on.What kind of editor would I be if I couldn't do a little fact-checking?
Add it to my pile.
All of it by 2:00?
No problemo.
That's a lot of red ink,but I'm happy to redo it.
Japanese to english?
I look forward to the challenge.
Look at that giante.
I know!And it's carrying all those papers.
ignoring and rising above.
what's wrong,betty?
Now that you're a big fancy editor,you don't even talk to the little people?
Oh,I'm sorry.
I couldn't hear you over your loud shirt.
- did you just... - fashion-smack by suarez...unexpected.
Unlike you,betty,I look great in jewel tones.
What's with the 'tude?
Ll,I've tried being nice to you,but since my promotion,
all you do is insult me and sabotage me,so I'm done with you.
I really like this side of her.
Do you mind?
sorry.
No,no,no.
It's my bad.But here--here,let me help.
I was wondering if you had any,uh... feature ideafor the new york issue?
What,you mean,like,to write an article?
Unless you're too busy with--
oh,no!No,I-I would love to write an article.
Actually,I've been working on this concept about the unsung heroes of new york--
people who do the toughest jobs,
and we could showcase their uniforms for a fashion angle.
"New york's ten most thankless jobs." Sounds perfect.
Really?
Thanks.Okay,great.
Well... I'll... I'll get to work.
Oh,and,matt?
I'm really glad that we... you know.
Yeah,me,too.
Oh,hey,matt.
I really like your haircut.
It just looks so healthy.
It makes me want to pull it.
actually,I didn't get a haircut!
That kind of hurts.
Thank you.
Bye.
Ohmy god,mandy.
You were,like,five seconds away from flipping his omelet right here on the desk.
you love him.
Please.
He's tainted.
Kissing him would be like kissing betty.
- betty. - Yes?
Daniel's been looking for you.
He wants you to meet the new assistant.
He picked someone?Is it gavin?
I don't think so.
Hi.
Are you daniel's new assistant?
- lexie,like,"sexy." - Oh,I see.
well,I'm betty... like... confetti!
I'm daniel's old assistant,so I'm more than happy to help you.
I can--I can show you how ings work.
I know how things work.
I'm sure you'll be fine.
hey,betty.
did you meet lexie yet?
"Lexie,like,'sexy'"?
Yes,we met.
- Daniel. - What?
What happened to gavin?
Of all the people H.R.Sent over...
that's who you picked?
Looks had nothing to do with it.
I-I can't believe you wod even think that.
I'm a widower,betty.
You certainly didn't pick her because she's friendly.
Well,maybe she's just intimidated by you.
I mean,I told her she had some pretty big shoes to fill.
And... she nailed the interview-- totally helpful.
Let me get that for you.
I mean,just because she's pretty doesn't mean she's not qualified.
You should know,judging a book by its cover works both ways.
I'm sure if you thinkshe's capable,then she'll be great.
Where the hell have you been?
Can't I go out to get some frozen yogurt?
If you cango a couple weeks without murderingany boyfriends.
did you talk to anyone?
You know me--just getone frozen yogurt in me,and I justtell all my secrets.
Is this a joke to you?
you will not be laughing whenwe're both in jail,young lady.
Mom!
It was 20 minutes.
I asked you to doone thing--stay put.
Nico,after everything I've done for you--
boarding school in france,taking you inwhen you needed help?
I'm sorry.
It won't happen again.
You're right.It won't happen again.
Because from now on,you don't leave my side.
that's it.Now you just type inyour password right there.
And that's how you check your e-mail.
So...what's my password again?
"ignacio rules."
Just wanted to hear you say that.
hey,look at that!
Guess papi's more modern than you thought.
Yes,congratulations.
You have mastered e-mail.
Welcome to 1993.
I think it's very cool that you're learningto use the computer.
You are in a mood.
- what? - It's archie.
I neverget to see him anymore.
He's too busy campaigningand canvassing the neighborhood.
I'll tell you one neighborhood isn't canvassing,if you know what I mean.
what?
It's passion.
Without it,relationships fizzle,and I don't want thatto happen to us.
Maybe he'S... not attracted to me anymore.
What,are you crazy?
Look at you.
Yeah,that would bepretty crazy.
mija,more coffee?
You're gonna be up all night.
It's the only wayI'm gonna make it through.
I have all this work to do,and I haven't even started writing my article.
Just have the peoplebelow you do it.
Isn't that what editors do?
Justin,I'm a junior editor.
There's no one lower than me in my department.
There is always someone lower than you.
In jr high,the drama kids seemed like the bottom of the food chain,but we weren'T.
There was always the band and the renaissance fair nerds.
I did renaissance fair!
I was one ofthe queen's dancers.
So,betty,who's below you?
There is a pool of assistantsthat junior editors can use,
but I don't want it to look likeI can't handle my own work.
Mija,it is not a sign of weakness to ask for help.
Margaret,I knowyou hate your life,
but does everything you pick out have to be so dreary?
Don't come backuntil you get it right.
Great pep talk.
Everyone looked real scared.
Hey,willie,cal I tk to youabout something?
I just ran intotall paul from styles,who was talking tofat pat from accounting,
- who heard on good authority from gay renee... - oh,just say it!
Hartley and clairewere having dinner with isabelle besset last night.
word is,she's replacing you.
What are we gonna do?
What's the plan,blackmail?
I've been trying to get dirton isabelle for years.
She's clean as a whistle.
then what?
Hartley and claire think you're the enemy!
Marc!
We will just have to convincethem that I'm not the enemy.
Remind them I'm a team player.
you're serious?
Yes!
I can turn on the charmif I want.
While I'm on shaky ground,it wouldn't kill meto kiss claire's bony ass.
So... your plan is... being nice?
Yes.
I'm just gonnagive you some space...
and some time,so you canhatch up something else.
eaking of thingsyou've hatched,nico is here.
Yes.I brought her into learn about fashion.
Go grab her a chair.
She'll be quiet as a mouse.
Okay.Sure.
So,nico,what ya been doingsince boarding school?
What brings you back?
Wilhelmina?
I'm sorry to interrupt.
Don't be sorry.Being sorry takes time.Just spit it out.
Well,I've requestedanssistant from the pool,
but H.R.Says you have tosign off on it.
But you never stay withyour mom for this long.
is it boy trouble?
Didn't you meet some guybackpacking through europe?
What ever happened to him?
You need an assistant?
Done.
Walk this way.
Really?
Wow,thank you.
I have so much editorial work.
I had no idea that...
oh,I thought we were... walking.
We're here.
Marc,I need to reassign youfor a few days.
Reassign me?
Oh,no.No,no,no.
- I didn'T... - yes.

Ugly Betty Season 4 Episod 4
I cannot be betty's assistant!
It goes against the natural order of things.
S-she-diculous!
I've made my decision,marc.
is this because I told you about a certain french editor who might be replacing you?
do not punish the messenger,willie!
It's a good learning experience for nico to man the desk.
Besides,you're always complaining that you want more editorial responsibility,
and betty needs help with a feature.
Um... you know what?
I-I can do this by myself.
Betty,you might've been a star assistant,
but as an editor,you have failed to produce onesingle item for this magazine.
You want help?
Here it is.
I don't want to hearanother word about it.
Betty's in charge,so shut up and get out!
I said get out!
very mature.
Just becauseI'm your temrary assistant does not mean I'm getting youcoffee.
Got it?I could've been an editor at "v"!
"V"?
A certain magazine whose neshall not be said--
rhymes with rogue dante nelli jr.
Himself,offered me a job-- dante nelli jr.
A man so fabulous,he wearsa caftan every day of the year.
And I said,no,thanks,dante.
I'd rather be at 'mode,' doing grunt work for betty suarez."
You know what,marc?!
This is awkward for me,too,but I could actuallyuse your help.
I need to trim a hundred wordsfrom the trends column.
Maybe you could help me with that.
I could do thatin my sleep!
Hey,lexie.
I'm gonnapop down to the cafeteria ave lunch with my friend natalie.
I'm on the phone.
what was it you were saying?
okay.
Uh,anyway,I'll be backin an hour or so,okay?
Sorry.My new boss--yabbering on about something.
Mother,would you pleasetake off your sunglasses?
It's embarrassing.
I can't believeyou dragged me down here.
What kind of sad peopleeat in cafeterias?
Hello,hello!
Wilhelmina.
Well,well.
Scooch over there a second,would you,please?
Tnk you.
Well,cal,claire.
What a nice surprise.
This is my daughter nico.
Hello,nico.
He it's niceto meet you,dear.
Surprised to see youdown here,wilhelmina.
What,are you eating amongst the commoners?
you're too funny.
I would bust a rib if I hadn'thad them all removed.
uh,could we talk business for just a minute?
We likethe new york issue,but we are a little concernedabout sales.
Now cal has an idea,so tryto keep an open mind about this.
Get on with it,you old bag.
Well,uh,every book or movieI see these days is about vampires.
It's just--it's a total cash cow.
Now what if we put a vampireon the cover of "mode"...
you've got to be kidding me.
so the new york themebecomes gothic gotham.
Keep the fashion,but giveour cover girl some fangs.
Worst idea ever.
Oh,wait.It's my turn to talk.
I love it!
you do?
Oh,cal and I thought we might get some push back from you on this.
I know a great ideawhen I heaonE.
Wilhelmina slater is and will always bea team player.
I am crazyfor tater tots.
You want one?
Uh,I don't know if thatcan be called grief eating.
You're in way too goodof a mood.
you know what?
I am.
I've been goingto hear this guy give theseinspirational talks,and...
- yeah? - Don't Know.
he's kinda great.
He teaches you how to copewith all sorts of stuff-- addiction,divorce.
If you're curious,there'sactually a talk this afternoon about losing loved ones.
Oh,wow.
"The community of the phoenix.
Rise up from the ashes of your life and soar."
You think it's cheesy,new age-y?
I know.
Forget the brochure.
'S really been helping mework through some stuff.
okay,you just scoffed at me.
I'm--I'm not scoffing.
Okay,atever.
You know what?Never mind
you're probablynot ready for it anyway.
Oh,and what makes you think I'mnot ready?
Of course I'm ready.
Besides,what can it hurt,right?
Right.
hi,hilda.
Do you remember that halloweenwhen I was the sexy superhero?
Remember all of those guyswere groping me?
That was the year I went as D.N.A.
Oh,yeah.
That was sad.
Anyway,where arethose sassy boots?
Why?
I am gonna text archiea sexy picture of myself,you know,put a little airin his tires.
Hilda... sexting?
What?Please.
It's not likeI'm gonna be nude.
It's gonna be tasteful--pg-13.
I'm not giving away the wholefruit basket,betty,just the nectarines.
Classy.
The boots arein the attic.I gotta go.
- Bye. - Bye.
while you wereon your personal call,I finished the trends column.
you cut the whole intro?
You know what?I don't miss it.
Good idea.
Great idea.
what?
Nothing.
it's just--it's bad enough I have to watchyou get promoted above me
without havingany knowledge of fashion,
but now I have to have your ineptitude rubbed in my face.
You know what,marc?I'm not gonna keep havingthis argument with you.
I know I'm not perfect,but daniel and wilhelmina picked me for a reason.
Yeah,daniel's nameis on the building,and you two are lovahs.
You know,I have half a mindto march into daniel's office right now
and put this issueto rest once and for all.
I would love to seethe look on your face when daniel says they gave methe job
because they thought I would be a better editor than you.
Okay.I would love to hear himsay those words.
- Fine. - Fine.
Fine.
No,
- You're both so qualified.It was... - just give us the truth.
Your vote trumped wilhelmina's,right?
Because you're a meade.
Or was it simply that I hadmore potential as an editor?
It was a very,uh,hard decision for us to make.
Why are you sparingtheir feelings,daniel?
We tossed a coin.
And you got your job,betty,because you were tails.
Now you know I wanted youin this job.
But the coin toss was the onlyway to break the impasse.
I know.
It's just--the only thing keeping me going was the feelingthat I actually deserve this.
Betty,wait,wait,wait.
You do deserve this.
Believe me.
Yeah,I know.
Good.
Look,I have to runto my layout meeting.
Are you sure you're gonna be all right?
Yeah.
Yes.
Okay.
He tails.
I'm so happythat we cleared that up.
You're not better than me.
You're just lucky.
You're nothing more than tails,the buttocks of a quarter.
Oh,hey,guys.
Betty,how's your article going?
Great.
I've already set upa bunch of interviews with some of the toughestworking people in the city,
and I'm going down there to see first-hand.
Great,and while you're downthere,
why don't you see if they'll let you actually do some of the jobs?
Oh,okay.
Like a first-person piece?
Yeah,and you should wear all the humiliating clothesthat they wear,
take lots of pictures of it to document the whole thing.
attthat's a great idea,marc.
See,some people just knowhow to think like editor.
Can you get my messagesfor me,plea?
Thank you.
Hello,mr.Candidate.
Did yout the picture that I sent you?
Yes,I got it,and so did everyone else.
What?
You hit "reply all" to oneof my campaign e-mails,hilda.
That picture went to my entire "distro" list.
Oh,my god!
Hello!
Hilda,this isthe absolute worst thing that could happen at this pointin my campaign.
- This is terrible.- Checking my e-mail!
Archie.Archie,you gottaget that e-mail back.
I'm not decent.
I can't get it back.
And now everyone,including the kidsI volunteer with,
are opening up their e-mails and finding a pictureof your boobs!
ignacio rules.
I can't talk right now,okay?
Just meet me later,okay?
okay.
Hey!
I got somethingfrom you.
It's a picture.
Where are my reading glasses?
No!
Hey,lexie.
How about a cup coffee?
Oh,yeah,I'd love one.Thanks.
Oh,uh,ok.
Finished your fact-checking.
Thanks.
So,uh,you're getting her coffee now?
Yeah,you know what?
I don't think it's working outso well with lexie.
Which is weird,because I'm usually such a good judge of character.
Yeah.
I picked y,didn't I?
Uh,no,not exactly.
Your father picked me,precisely so that you wouldn'tdo what you always do,
which is hire an assistantthat you want to sleep with.
Really?
Is that why you hired me?
Hey,lexie.
You're disgusting.
No,no.
oh,my god.I didn'tknow she was right there.
do you want meto go say something to her?
No,you're busy.
My problem.
I can handle it.
lexie,I really needto apologize to you.
You heard something outof context,
and I reallywant you to know,that's notthe reason I hired you.
I mean,I promise you,the more you get to know me,
the more you'll realize I'm not just like that,okay?
- what is wrong with you? - No,no.
You think you can just grab me?
It was an accident.I was tryingto reach for your shoulder.
You dirty old man.
No,no.S--I'm s--I'm--lexie,I'm sorry.
Lexie.
Old?
tails!
Will you stodoing that?
Come on.It's time for you to do the ten worst jobs in new york city.
mr.Badlani?
Hi.I'm betty suarez.
We spoke on the phone.
I'm here to beyour hot dog hostess.
"Taj ma hot dog.Delicious meat substitutehot dogs."
Sounds tasty.
Thank you.
Now I knowit's chilly today,
but,it can get mightysticky inside that hot dog suit.
I'm sorry.
There'san actual hot dog suit?
Oh,just when I thought this daycouldn't get sweeter.
Now which one of you isgoing to be the wiener,
and which one is going to be the bun?
- What? - It's a 2-man costume.
You can'thave the wiener without the bun.
- You heard the man. - No.
You wear the stupidcostumes.
It's your article.
You're the editor.
You're right,marc.
I am the editor.
And while I've been doingthe hardest jobs in new york all day long,
you have beendoing nothing at all.
But you heard wilhelmina.I'm in charge.
So suit up,because I'm the boss,and you're the bun.
Well,what do you think?
You look great.
but,please,don't eatin front of the customers.
A hot dog eating a hot dog?
It freaks them out.
okay,well,what do I do?
greet customers?
Hand out some coupons?
That doesn't seem so hard.
sometimes that happens.
Now where is my bun?
Bun!
We need you!
Can't have a hot dogwithout a bun.
There you are!
Unlike you,betty,who wears ridiculous getups on a daily basis,
I havea reputation to protect.
Come on,marc.
You lookadorable--good enough to.
what the hell is that?
Oh,it's the hot dog music.
Come on.I'll show you the dance steps.
It still doesn'tread "vampire" to me.
Maybe... sharper fangs,and...
maybe we should add some bloodto the front of the dress.
Oh,I agree.
Good idea,claire.
don't you dare.
nico.
What are you doing?
It wasn't on purpose.
don't you have enough blood on your hands?
Mom,do not get all pissywith me just because you hatethis vampire idea.
God,it's not my fault.
actually,it is.
I'm hanging on by a thread,doing everything I canto keep my job.
Because without my job,I can'thelp you.
It's all for you.
So I'm making nice,even though this vampire shoot is ridiculous.
Ridiculous?
What happenedto loving the concept?
I do.
I am 100% onboard.
Team player!
We ran this idea by you becausewe wanted your blunt opinion.
Well,how the hell am I supposedto give you my honest opinion,
knowing that isabelle bessetcan replace me any minute?
I had a feeling you might haveheard about that.
You want to know the truth?
Yes.
This is juvenile.
You put this on the cover,and it damages the brand.
"Mode" does not follow trends.
We set them.
All right.
I'll talk to cal.
You're agreeing with me?
Yes.
And now you do somethingfor me.
Trim the budget.
Start by cuttingten pages of content.
Oh,and,wilhelmina,just do your job... while you still have it.
okay,5,6,7,8.
Eat me,I'm a hot dog
and I'm a whole wheat bun
now it's time to eat the greatest treatunder the sun.
as much as I love giant wienersflying at me,this is a little outsidemy comfort zone.
You didn't even try to catch me,marc.
It's not my faultyou can't count.
You were two full measures early.
Oh,now I can't count?
No,you can't countand you can't dance and you certainly can't edita fashion magazine.
What is it with you,marc?
You know,if the coin tosswould have gone the other way,
if you would ha beenromoted,I would havejust been happy for you.
Why can't you just be happy for me?
Why should I be happy for you?
Yeah,ofourse the coinlanded on you.
You're,li,the luckiestperson in the world.
You have a great job,great family,
multiple attractive menhave wanteto date you--
god knows why.
I can't catch a break.
I am always the bun.
Come on,marc.
- It's not that bad. - Don't "happy betty" me.
You want to talk thankless jobsin new york city?
Try being wilhelmina slater'sgofer for five years.
And the worst part of it is,
I could have been editor at the magazine whose nameshall not be mentioned.
I could have been prot?
to the most fashionable manin publishing-- my style icon,dante nelli jr.
Yes?
- you grabbed her boob? - No,I didn't grab it.
I just--I sort of-- I grazed it.
Niel!
It was an accident.
I was going to apologize.
I don't care how badan assistant she is.
If you grabbed,grazed or lookedsideways at that boob,you cannot fire her.
You'll he a big lawsuiton your hands.
I am so,so sorry.
I feel terrible about this.
The last thing I wanted to dowas hurt you.
- I just...I didn't think... - that's right,hilda.
You didn't think.
I know you didn't meanfor this to happen,
but do you know what photoslike this do to campaigns?
This is a big embarrassment for me!
Nobody could be as embarrassedabout this as me.
It's my pictur people are talking about.
Well,then why did you do it?
You've been so busy lately.
I just wanted us to be...closer,you know?
I wanted you to beexcited about us again.
I'm sorry if I'man embarrassment to you.
Ah,I'm surprisedyou remembered me.
Of course I do.
It's notften that someonerefuses a job from us,
but you said you had topursue your dream,
which apparently isselling hot dogs?
Oh,no,I don't--I don't work here.
I-I'm still at "mode."
They finally made you editor?
Still picking upwilhelmina's dry cleaning.
Actually,marc wasso valuable at "mode" that we just added himto the features department.
We're doing a story right nowon the hardest jobs in new york.
That's why we'rein these crazy costumes.
Features?
Well,good for you.
Congratulations.
You know,I like to stay current with up-and-comingyoung editors.
Brunch sometime?
Have your assistant set it up.
- Actually,she's not... - I would be happy to.
You didn't have to do that.
I know.
Thanks.
I just figured your were duefor a change in luck.
it's you.
"Emergency editors' meetingat 4:00 P.M."
That's in seven minutes.
Well,we have to get backto the office.
I'll get the cab.
You go back to mr.Badlani,tell him and get our clothes.
Hold the door!Thank you.
Come on.Hurry!Where's my clothes?
I might have accidentally trashed them.
- What? - In my defense,I was sort of hating you at the time.
- here.Let me just... - don't help me.
Oh,betty,don't be like that.
You know,every single time I think there's a glimmerof a decent person in there,
you always seemto prove me wrong.
And now I get to go backto the office dressed like a hot dog,
where everybody already thinksI'm a joke.
Thank you.
Close the door,please.
Why do we have to acceptthat our loved ones are gone?
They're with us always.
And if we deny that,it'll only prolong our pain.
So I say reject acceptance.
you don't agree with me?
You don't want to be here,do you?
- No,he doesn'T. - Yes,I do.
I'm offering you a chanceat an elevated relationship with someone you lost.
But you can only achievethat connection
when you're honest with yourselfabout what you want.
And you can't even be honestwith me.
Or can you?
Did you want to be here?
Fine.I don't want to be here.
Congratulations.
You just healeda part oyourself.
you're scoffing at that?
I wasn't scoffing.
He was.He was scoffing.
He's been doing it all day.
- stop it. - What?
I'm trying to help you.
fine.
Yes,I wascoffing.
But come on.
Honesty heals?
don't you think that soundsa little simplistic?
Well... people havealways underestimated the power of simplicity.
I tell you what.
Go and try being honest in your daily li...
exactly when you thinkyou shouldn't be.
And if I'm right,and it freesyou up in some way,come back.
And if it doesn't,fine.
Accept that the person you loveis gone forever,and good luck with that.
Amanda?
Can we talk?
I need to,uh,tell you something,and it's kind of a secret.
What is it?
Come here.
No.Closer.
Closer.
Amanda.
You're such a good kisser.
It's just a hot dog suit.
Look,do you know if the editors' meeting started yet?
Amanda?
H-have you seen,uh,have you seen betty?
Betty?
listen,wilhelmina is cutting ten pages of contentfor budget.
Everyone is fightingto keep their stuff in.
I look ridiculous.
C--do I have time to change?
If you want to saveyour article,we better get in there quick.
lexie,can you get the bookfrom the art department,please?
Get it yourself.
You know how to grab things.
Wait,lexie.Lexie,hey.
Let me be totally honestwith you.
The only reason I hired youis because you're hot.
in fact,you're crazy hot,
and I'm a man who likes to lookat a beautiful woman,so sue me.
no,he's just kidding.
No.No.Don't--don't sue him.
daniel,what are you doing?
I'm lling the truth.
You're not rightfor this job,lexie.
You're mean,you're impatient,you walk aroundas ieveryone's below you,
and they are,because you're 20 feet tall.
You're not an assistant,lexie.
I think you would makea terrific model.
A model?
Think about it.
You shouldn't be behind a desk.
You should be sprawledacross a desk,dressed in skin-tight couture,
looking hungryon the cover of a magazine.
Oh,god.
you know,I always thought I was too prettyto be a secretary,
but girls always hated mewhen I said it out loud.
Okay,well,say it then.
Say,"I am a model."
I... am... a model.
Thank you.
Oh,I have to go tell everyonethat I know now.
What the hell was that?
Honesty.
I'm sorry,jill.
You can't convince methat leggings are pants.
Rme de que your article's out.
Who's next?
Whatever that is,it's cut.
Wait.Doesn't betty get chance to defend her article?
Everybody else did.
All right.You have 30 seconds.Go.
Um,okay,my article is aboutthe toughest jobs in new york.
It seems a little dry.
Maybe it could usesome mustard?
I'm sorry,betty.
I don'tsee it fitting in "mode."
Maybe you had to be there.
Wait,willie.
But you could be... if we recreated it for you.
what are you doing?
I'm saving you.
Come on.
Dance.
Eat me,I'm a hot dog
and I'ma whole wheat bun

add a squirt of ketchupfor a whole lot more fun
eat me,I'm a hot dog eat me,I'm a bun eat us
that was the most humiliatingthing I've ever seen.
yes,these uniformse ridiculous,
but this whole cityis full of uniforms.
And inspiration for fashion comes fromthe most unlikely places,
like bike messengersin bright lycra or--
or the epauletson a policeman's uniform.
Trash collectorswere wearing jumpsuits way before they showed upon every runway last spring.
Also lookat these funny pictures of betty wearingthe uniforms.
I can't run those pictures.
Then instead of bey,picture a supermodel.
Congratulations,betty.
You're in.
****
Oh,here's lexiepulling the pedicab.
The camera loves"lexie,like sexy."
I have no ideawhat I was thinking hiring her as my assistant.
I mean,come on.That wassomething old daniel would do.
Come on.You made a mistake.You're only human.
So why is ityou'll cut me some slack but you won't do the same for yourself?
What do you mean?
I mean,this is your firstiecefor the magazine as editor.
It's a great spread.
You're not even the least bit excited.
I'm excited.
But?
It's just--I've been fightingand fighting with marc,
trying to prove to him thatI deserve to be the editor.
And then he's the one who saved the day.
Betty,this whole piecewas your idea.
Why don't you know you're goodat this?
You're great at this.
I don't know.Maybe because I was tails.
Look,betty,some people get the jobbecause of the flip of a coin.
Some people get the jobbecause... their father owns the company.
It doesn't matterhow you get it.
It matterswhat you do with it.
hilda?
Can I borrow you?
This will only take a minute.
I'll be right back.
and now to candidate archie rodriguez.
now a lot of hubbub has been made over a certain photo of my girlfriend,
and I just wish the press would stop showing this photo.
- That's not my best angle. - Just watch.
Everyone's been asking me if I want to apologize to the voters,
but the truth is,
The only person who deserves an apology is my girlfriend.
She had her privacy invad,and I'm sorry I wasn't more understanding.
As for the voters,they're just gonna have to accept the fact that my girlfriend... is sexy.
lld I wi not apologize for that.
Archie!
I can't believe you did that.
Yeah.And we gotthe latest polls,
and thanks toyour sexy picture,hilda,I'm more popular than ever.
- I'm in the lead. - Oh,my god!
oh,god!That's fantastic!
Oh,my god,archie,you're gonna win.

I got customers.
They can wait.
mrs.Ramirez!
I'll be back in 11 minutes!
I brought us a treat.
frozen yogurt!
chocolate!
My favorite!
mine,too.
frozen yogurt in the middleof the day?
What's the occasion?
Mama is keeping her job.
Isabelle bessetturned it down,and for the li of me,I don't know why.
You would think that "mode"would be a step up from french "elle."
Well,I heard she got a call from an editorat french "mode,"
something about how difficultclaire and hartley are to work for.
I don't remember bribinganyone from "mode" france.
Bonjour.
Pourrais je parler avec isabelle besset,s'il vous pla?
You?
You devious little minx.
I guess all those years at french boarding schoolpaid off.
Mom,I'm just so sorry aboutdragging into all this,
and I figured,after allyou've done for me,I owed you.
Oh,nico.
My darling daughter,I would do anything for you.
And I have a feeling everythingis gonna be all right.
