Episode Report Card Potes: B | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Secretaries Day
By Potes | Season 1 | Episode 21 | Aired on 05.02.2007
Cut to the Mode office, where Daniel says, "Happy Secretaries' Day," and hands Betty a little trophy. It says "World's Best Notary," but Daniel has helpfully covered up the word "notary" with a piece of tape that says "secretary." Eh, they both have a "tary" in them. Close enough for Hallmark. Betty says that they changed it to Administrative Professionals' Day in 1998. Daniel doesn't really reply, because he doesn't know if he could spell those two long words in a row. Daniel tells Betty to get Olivier Theyskens on the phone, because he promised them a Nina Ricci spread. He also tells Betty to send over some hot models, and adds that he's in the mood for a redhead. This would be the perfect time to bring Carrot Top back from obscurity, and/or import tantrum-throwing Top Model Brittany and her monstrous weave. If those two can't kill a sex drive, I don't know who can.
Betty eats a spoonful of yogurt. Nick comes by in a fury and asks her what she's doing. She is, of course, eating yogurt. Nick says, "MY YOGURT?" and Betty says that it didn't have a name on it. Oh my God, Betty totally stole Nick's cheese. Luckily, Nick has cheese aplenty to keep him in business. He says that his name was on the granola bar that was on top of the yogurt, and asks if she doesn't know the refrigerator stacking system. Betty asks if this means the cherry pie was his, too. She hasn't eaten it yet, but it was next on the list. Nick grabs the remaining yogurt and the pie and says, "Game on, Suarez. Game on." I have to say that I'm with Nick on this one. If you touch my stuff in the work fridge I will cut you.
Cut to Amanda telling Marc how much she hates Secretaries' Day and paper-cutting the head off of a little stuffed bear. She says that everyone gets a present except the receptionist, and asks who they think forwards the calls, fans the magazines, and signs for the packages. Marc answers, "Tim, Sheila, and Betty," respectively. Amanda then asks who looks hot for everyone when they come in, and notes that her buttons don't pop open by themselves. Speaking of, Marc asks where she got her stylin' vest, and she says it's Tavares. He asks what's with all the gifts and says it's not like she's sleeping with the guy. Amanda hurriedly answers, "Of course not, because he's gay and I'm a woman and he's gay." Also gay, but in a different way, is Nick, who pumps his fist in celebration that Alexis got him a Beer Of The Month Club subscription. This makes Amanda even madder, and Marc brings up their forthcoming evening at The Middle Ages, where they will get to make fun of all the nerds in shining armor. Amanda says that she thinks she'll pass. Marc says, "You can't pass! I'm not going stag, hag!" Amanda replies, "You'll have to buy your own beer, queer." Marc retorts, "You can't just ditch, bitch," but Amanda cuts him off with a loud, "Shut up!" and stomps off.
