On his way home, Justin spots the special Shakira rice cakes in a convenience store. Nay, in THE convenience store. The clerk recognizes Justin, and tells him that Santos saved his life and was a hero. He says that Santos was a good man, and that Justin must be just like him. Justin says that no, he's not, and walks out.
Meanwhile, in other Suarez family drama, Betty sees Daniel wheel by and says she has to tell him something. But before she can, she gets a call from Ignacio, who tells her that he's going to attempt the dangerous and illegal feat of crossing the border. Betty is upset and asks him to not do anything yet. She tells him she knows how to get him home. She enters Wili's office at 4:58, and becomes yet another soul-selling notch on Wili's Botox needle.
Back at Casa de Suarez, Hilda tells Justin to pick one thing of Santos's that he loves. He passes by a rubber lizard before settling on a basketball. Uh-oh. This spells trouble.
At Mode, Daniel gives his feedback on the book, and Wili says that he's right, he's back, he's the editor in chief, and she made a mistake. Daniel's cool with that. On her way out, Wili tells Betty that she hears her father's coming back on Thursday, and that she should give him her regards. And I mean, Betty's totally doing the right thing. She should just get Christina to blab about the afternoon delight like she blabs about everything else. Daniel, because he is the king of the addle-brained clueless guilt trip, tells Betty that she's the one person at Mode he can truly trust. Betty is like a burrito full of guilt right now.
Wili, on a deception high, tells Bradford that she just got off the phone with Cavalli, who's working on Bradford's wedding tux and flying himself in for the fitting. Bradford tells her that, with Alexis in the hospital, he's not sure if this is a time for a giant party. Even worse, he doesn't want to downsize the wedding; he wants to postpone it. And to think Wili almost traded Marc in to get the date of her choice! He says that he and Alexis are bonding, and Wili feigns enthusiasm, weakly. She's even less thrilled that Bradford hasn't told Alexis about her. Bradford asks if Wili still loves him, and she says, "Always," before giving him the cheek when he tries to kiss her. Bradford asks if she's sure she's all right, and Wili says she's fine as the fire in the fireplace surges behind her.
Then Wili takes out her aggression by beheading some mannequins on the roof, this time with real thunder.
