Elsewhere, Amanda tries to catch up with Marc in Wili's office, but he's called a Code Fuchsia. Wili's daughter Nico called: she can't come to the wedding. When Wili marches in, in a foul mood, Amanda rushes off. Turns out Wili overshot her target weight, and with the wedding in ten days, her Vera Wang makes her look like a white silk sharpei: "And that diva Wang said there was no time to alter the boning." Marc asks what Wang knows about boning, anyway. Hee. To Marc's horror, Wili then unwraps a sandwich. She explains that she has to gain six pounds by Saturday to fill it out. Gazing at Betty, who's chowing down per usual, Wili ruefully says, "Look at her. She makes it seem so easy." Wili sniffs around and says she smells fear, which makes Marc admit that Nico got bitten by her pet monkey and can't make the wedding. Wili could actually give two shits, and is most worried about the seating charts. Marc points out that Nico is her maid of honor, and Wili says she has bigger problems, including the fact that Bradford wants "something called a Shania Twain" to perform at the reception. She tells Marc to find out what Betty is having for lunch and order her two. She has truly hit rock bottom, hasn't she?
Meanwhile, Betty goes to get Henry to "sign" something, and stagily drops it under the desk. The two pop under there,where Betty asks if Henry wants to go on a real date to see Wicked. Henry thinks this is wicked awesome. But not as awesome as when Betty adds, "And maybe afterward...the date could continue?" Betty raises a bushy eyebrow, and it is a seduction scene like you have not witnessed anywhere else. Something hits the underside of the table, and we can all hope it's Henry's head. But then, alas, Daniel catches them...
...and takes Betty to his office to give her grief about Henry, saying that he'd rather get rid of Henry than see Betty get her heart broken again. Betty wonders if Daniel's going to murder him, but happily, this is not the case. One never knows with this family.
At the front desk, Henry sends Amanda running when he sees Cliff coming. He pushes Cliff toward the elevator, and Cliff asks if they'll have dinner tonight at a locale other than one of their apartments. Marc rejects the notion of going to a restaurant, and Cliff says that he's starting to get a complex that Marc might not want to be seen with him. This complex is known as "the truth." Marc forgives Cliff's "foolishness," and hastily agrees when Cliff says that he'll get them a reservation at Craft. He gives Cliff a handshake instead of a kiss, noting, "You know the fashion world...very homophobic."
