Christina has told Betty the whole situation with Wilhelmina, and berates herself for being so stupid and letting Wili take advantage of her yet again. Betty tells her that it's all Wili -- what she does is use people. It's different this time, says Christina, since there's a baby involved. Betty assures Christina that she's a good person, and this nice moment is interrupted by Charlie yelling upstairs to demand her tamales. Christina simply says, "She is annoying." Betty is as good a sport as she can be, and heads downstairs to introduce Escobar's famous green corn tamales. Charlie takes a bite and spits it out, saying it's not the right tamale. Betty finally snaps, and gives Charlie an earful. She tells Charlie that she and Henry are going to be together after he goes back to Tucson whether she likes it or not. Charlie's response? "My water just broke." Oh yeah, good times. Commercials.
When we return, Betty asks Charlie if she's sure her water broke. Charlie replies that it's that, or she peed her pants. Amanda knows that trick, and adds that her water totally broke when she was drunk on New Year's Eve. But Charlie's having contractions, so it looks like the moment of babymaking truth really is here.
Cut to Hilda, back at the gym. Coach Diaz says he only needed a couple of stitches in his ear. She says that maybe he's right about Justin and gym class, and he agrees to meet her halfway. If Justin helps choreograph the cheerleading routines for the rest of the year, he'll pass. Hilda is sure that Justin, who calls ESPN "the cheerleading channel," will love it. Hilda asks Coach what his first name is -- it's Tony -- and future makeout sessions are all but guaranteed.
Meanwhile, Ignacio and Daniel are taking a little walk. Ignacio explains that he was kind of like Daniel when he was younger, and it wasn't until he felt really good about himself that he met someone special. Turns out the secret ingredient to Ignacio's self-confidence was his innovation of adding molasses to mole sauce. It was special, unique, and delicious. He asks Daniel what makes him feel good about himself. Daniel thinks long and hard and we cut away.
Christina heads back to Wili's place, where she acknowledges that she really doesn't have any other options so has decided to take Wili up on her offer. There is something she wants from Wili, she says, as she pops in the video of the sonogram. She wants Wili to watch the baby's heartbeat, and for once in her monstrous life think about someone else, because this baby is not just some instrument for Wili's wicked game -- it's her child. Christina wants a promise that Wili will love the baby, and give it everything that it needs. Wili stares at the little Bradford spawn, which kind of looks like him in all its creepy baldness.
