Meanwhile, Marc incompetently tries to seduce a lady. Just in time, Becks comes in and begins go ogle Amanda. She tells Becks that he doesn't want this slut, because there's a much bigger slut behind the clothes rack, and Amanda wants her skirt. She asks Becks to go get it for her. Marc is relieved to be saved and takes a puff from his inhaler, gasping, "The horror!" And that's the end of that.
Back at the Mode tent, we find Katharine McPhee. Betty bumps into her, and gushes about what a fan she is and how she totally had the McPheever. She introduces herself as Betty Suarez, and asks if Katharine McPhee's seen Daniel. Katharine McPhee asks if Betty is Hilda's sister. Oooh, that is harsh. Katharine McPhee says that Hilda is awesome, and gives Betty a signed CD for her. Betty passes it off to a lackey with instructions to get McPheever.
Daniel sits with a bottle of champagne in his hand. Hilda comes stomping out and tells him to enjoy the show, adding that some people will enjoying it from the unemployment line. Daniel asks why, and Hilda says that her frickin' sister just fired her. Daniel says that his just came back from the dead, and that she's hot. See, really rich people do have worse and weirder problems than the rest of us. Hilda asks what he's talking about, and Daniel says that he's had a bad day. Hilda says that she's had a bad month, grabs the bottle, and starts swigging.
Back at Casa de Suarez, Ignacio has summoned Constance's ex-boyfriend, Toussaint -- who happens to be a cab driver -- to his home. Nice recon work, Nacho! Ignacio says that this is about Constance, and Toussaint asks, with eyes of dread, if she's there -- and if he smells gumbo -- before trying to flee. Ignacio assures him that Constance isn't there before trying the soft sell and asking Toussaint if he really wants to give up all that sweet, spicy love. Toussaint then wisely asks if Constance is Ignacio's case worker. Ignacio asks how he knew, and Toussaint asks how Ignacio thinks the two of them hooked up. He says that this is how she operates: first she starts showing up three times a day, then she starts moving closer and closer, and before you know it, she's crying about the last guy who dumped her. Constance is a sexual predator! Of middle-aged illegal immigrants! Toussaint tells Ignacio that if he wants his green card, he's got to ride that squishy train until he reaches his destination. "Ride that squishy train" is a phrase of almost equal grossness to "moist panties."
