Meanwhile, at Casa de Suarez, Hilda is pacing. Ignacio asks if she's going out with Santos again, and if he's late. Hilda says it's only been a few minutes, and that he'll be there. He's going to honk twice. Ah, romance, Queens-style. Ignacio says that maybe he's not coming. Hilda asks him to stop it, and Ignacio says that he just doesn't want her to be disappointed. Just then, there's a knock on the door. It's Santos! Hilda asks why he didn't honk, and Santos looks at Ignacio and says that they don't need to sneak around anymore. He gets on one knee. Ignacio asks what he's doing, and Santos says, "What I should have done when Sunset Boulevard won the Tony." Wrapped your turban tighter and laid hands on your life-sized cardboard cutout of Glenn Close? No, actually, Santos proposes. He loves Hilda and wants her to be his wife. Ignacio looks shocked, and Hilda gets a big "fisheye from the hotel clerk no more!" smile as we head to commercials.
When we return, Hilda is dragging Justin down the stairs. He says that this had better be important, because Tyra's about to tell off four top models. Oh, man, it's like my world just turned in on itself. Is all of TV just a dream I had? The two sit down, and Hilda shows Justin the ring. He notes that it's a half-carat emerald cut, and is beautiful, and then he says, "It took dad long enough." Hilda is surprised that Justin knew, and he tells her to come on -- every morning, she smells like Paco Rabanne. Better than smelling like '80s music sensation Paco. Or a taco. ["Or '80s music non-sensation Taco. Just me remembering 'Puttin' On The Ritz'? Okay, then." -- Miss Alli] Hilda says that she hasn't made a decision yet, because it's about both her and Justin. It's been just the two of them for a long time, so it's his decision too. Awww. Hilda is a really good mom. But Justin says that it's not his decision. In a few years, he'll be out of the house, so she shouldn't marry Santos because of him. She should marry him because she loves him. Awww. Justin is a really good kid.
At Mode, Daniel is getting ready to sign his resignation papers. He tells Alexis that he has one condition -- he wants to make sure that Betty has a job. Alexis has a split second of looking like she maybe thinks Daniel is an okay kind of guy. Or maybe she farted. Betty and Henry look in on the two of them. Henry can't believe that Alexis is doing this. They're family, he says, and even Erica Kane forgave her daughter Kendall when she slept with her fourth husband. Betty gives him a look and he says, "All My Children. It's just something I know." Does anyone remember when Sarah Michelle Gellar played Kendall? Those were some crazy times.
