Episode Report Card Potes: B+ | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT A Nice Day For A Posh Wedding
By Potes | Season 2 | Episode 7 | Aired on 11.07.2007
And then, it's the big Ebony and Ivory celebration at St. Patrick's Cathedral! Amanda tries to introduce herself everywhere as Fey's daughter, but no one cares. Marc, meanwhile, is fixated on how bad Cliff is going to look. Amanda makes a couple of fat jokes, but when Cliff enters, he's looking shaven and sharp. Amanda says, "Transfatty! More than meets the eye." Marc is proud and boasts to anyone who will listen that Cliff is his boyfriend. Cliff says good-naturedly that he's sweating, his collar is too tight, and his shoes hurt. Marc counters that beauty is pain, and Cliff is hurting him bad. Cliff gives the cutest smile. Yay!
Betty and Henry, meanwhile, end up outside of the court where Ignacio is having his citizenship ceremony. Henry somehow got Betty here without her knowing, despite the fact that she's lived in New York all her life and isn't actually blindfolded. But it's better not to ask questions. She's mad, but Henry tells her that when he leaves, her family is going to be there for her. We fade to commercials with Betty's sad face. Again. But hey, it's either that or some sort of klutzy accident! It's good to mix it up once in a while.
We return to more wedding! Marc gets jealous that Cliff has been talking to a waiter for quite a while. He calls Cliff over, and Cliff has the audacity to give him the one-minute finger. I do hate getting the one-minute finger. It's the second-worst kind of finger you can get.
And then, citizenry! The citizenship ceremony speech is kind of creepy. Hilda looks on proudly, while Justin, watching his phone, yells out, "Gwyneth's wearing white to the wedding? That is such a bitch slap!" But you know who decided not to give a metaphorical bitch slap today? Yep, it's Betty. She shows up, and Ignacio sees her and looks touched.
Back at the wedding, Marc drags Cliff away from the waiter in a jealous fit. Turns out he was a model that Cliff worked with, and they're just friends. Marc says that they're gay and there's no such thing as just friends, and Cliff says that he's a straight waiter/model. He tells Marc he's acting like a baby, and Marc says he's a baby who's been abandoned in a dumpster while mommy discovers her newfound hotness. So he's not quite Shawn Preston or Jayden James, which is good news for his teeth. Marc tells Cliff that it's over and stomps off, but not before smiling for the photos. Amanda gives Cliff the hand of all hands -- like, a Beyonce hand, because Cliff must not know 'bout Marc -- and follows Marc.
