Marc walks with Wilhelmina and her handful of Polaroids, and notes that Styles wants to know what she thought of the tankinis for the swimsuit issue. She says that she thinks there's a lesbian water polo team somewhere who will love them. Haaaaaaaaa. Wilhelmina fires someone, and then Marc notes that Anna Wintour called back and wants to have lunch. Wili says that she left that message in 1998, and to tell Anna that she's busy. And again, haaaaaaaaa! There are more firings until Marc and Wili run into Alexis, who tells them that Daniel got an injunction and the takeover's been halted. She says that it will never hold up in court, and that they should be back on track in about a week. Wili is fuming. She says that she's not going back to being Daniel's creative director -- she worked too hard to get to the top. Alexis quite astutely notes that she was at the top for an hour. Wili says that they can all see how well the magazine will run without her, and emphatically states that her gold pumps will not see the floor of this building until she rules the magazine once again. She storms off, and Alexis notes to Marc that she's a little dramatic.
Suddenly, Ignacio is in the Mode office, and notes how white it is in there. He tells Betty that he wanted to get there before Walter did. Betty has mild panic about the fact that Walter is coming. Ignacio says that Walter was offered a promotion to assistant manager at Pro Buy, but that he is going to turn down the job. The reason? The position is in Maryland, and Betty is in New York. Betty says that Walter shouldn't turn down that kind of an opportunity for her, and that they'll work it out. Ignacio tells Betty that if she's not in love with Walter, she can't keep stringing him along. Unless she's willing to stand in front of a priest with him, she needs to let him go. Really, this one's kind of a no-brainer. Betty thanks Ignacio for coming by, and he whips out a camera and says that he was also hoping to get a glimpse of the she-male. What is with the Suarez family and their cameras?
Back at the Suarez house, Hilda is doing the hair of one of those creepy life-size Barbie heads. Except it's not even Barbie; it's, like, the dollar-store version of Barbie. Like, "Cut N' Curl Binny," or something. Santos comes in with Justin in tow, the latter looking awfully beat up. Santos says that the school called him because Justin got in a fight. Hilda asks why they didn't call her, and Justin sassily says that Santos is his father and that they can call him if they want to. Hilda says, "Ay dios mio," which I totally called last episode, and asks who did that to Justin. Justin, carrying a color guard flag, runs up to his room as Hilda and Santos exchange a concerned slash puzzled look. Maybe someone made a remark about his flagpole?
