Meanwhile, Alexis enters an elevator populated by a shady character in sunglasses. She hands him an envelope. He asks if she has any preference for how they make her old man disappear. Invisibility cloak, maybe? Come to think of it, that would be the perfect accessory for his current ensemble. Alexis says that she doesn't want to know the details, she just wants him gone. Shady guy says good, because once she gets off the elevator she'll never see Shady again. Alexis exits to find Daniel and Jordan making out in the hallway, then backs into the elevator and tells Shady that she won't see him again after the lobby. She really should have just had him take out Daniel while he was at it. Do thugs ever have BOGO Thursdays?
Back in Mexico, Betty and Hilda are on a bus. Hilda asks how far it is to the outlet mall where they're going to look for her wedding dress, and Betty says it's just a couple of miles. Hilda says that she'd better find something, and she bemoans how hard everything is with her wedding. Well, she just got engaged, like, yesterday, and apparently is getting married in ten minutes. A short timeline will do that to you. Betty asks Hilda where she got her quesadilla, and Hilda motions to a guy on the back of the bus. She notes that she's had better, and Betty asks, "On a bus?" It's a good point. We suddenly hear the lonesome call of some sort of New-Age-y whistle, and Betty looks out the window to see a flannel-shirted Henry riding a moped next to the bus. She acknowledges that she's probably just seeing things, even though it would be so totally like Henry to rent a moped. Hilda notes that the stuff with their maternal grandmother really got to Betty, and adds that that's the only reason why she agreed to go shopping when Betty suggested it. Hilda then gets a funny look, and she realizes that they're actually going to Yolanda's house. Betty says that Hilda was a lot smarter before she got engaged.
Meanwhile, Tavares sidles up to Amanda, who is in the back of his studio going through a rack of clothes, and notes that everyone loves his stuff. She sarcastically says that she'd hug him, but she doesn't want her greasy paws to ruin his shirt. Actually, given the way she eats, that might be a legitimate worry. He apologizes, noting that this is a big night for him. She pulls out the blazer from earlier and asks what it's still doing there. Tavares says that it's one of his best, and that coconut-shell buttons are the next big thing. Only if they come with a straw and are filled with pina colada. Which would actually be my ideal wardrobe choice. Amanda sternly says that Wili hates them, and if Tavares wants to get ahead in the fashion business, he can't cross her. He pulls Amanda to him and they start making out. And then, who should open a curtain and spy them but Marc! He looks shocked, and slowly, very slowly, closes the curtain.
