By Potes | Season 2 | Episode 16 | Aired on 05.08.2008
Meanwhile, Daniel has a hot therapist. Like, porn hot. He puts the moves on her and she tells him to get out. When he's ready to face up to his emotions and talk about them like an adult, he's allowed to return. Even when she says this, I half-expect her to whip off her glasses and let her hair down "Hot for Teacher" style.
Wili, Marc, and Christina are at the doctor's office, where they learn everything is going great with the baby. Christina can go back to work, and they all can start telling people that they're expecting. "People" being 400 members of the news media to Wili and Marc. The doctor offers a video of the sonogram, but Wili could care less. She and Marc exit, and Christina spies the doctor's file, which says, "Meade/Slater Baby." She asks what it's all about, and the doctor says it must be strange carrying the child of a dead man. Now she knows how the mothers of all of Keith Richards' children feel. And, also, she's pretty shocked.
At Mode, Betty shares the news with Henry that she's throwing Charlie a shower. She's also taken great pains to have Charlie's favorite tamales shipped from a place in Tucson called Escobar's -- she had to buy them a seat on a plane. She is chipper enough about all of this, since it's ultimately for her and Henry.
Soon enough, Daniel is back in therapy, talking about his constant flirting. Turns out it feels good to be wanted, and is a form of approval. Blah blah blah, Renee-cakes. He wanted to find something deeper, but ended up with nothing. Hot therapist thinks this is something they should explore. Cue the porn music, man. This is classic.
Wili and Marc, meanwhile, are furious that Christina is lagging. They head back to the exam room, only to find that Christina is gone. Wili sees the computer from the sonogram, which clearly has the words "Meade" and "Slater" on it, and knows that Christina knows about the corpse child. With her baby vessel missing, we head to commercials.
When we return, Betty continues making shower arrangements. As she wonders aloud if she's crazy, Amanda invites herself to the shower, then tells Betty she'll see what she can do to make it. They had to horn in a little Amanda somewhere in the episode, right?
At Casa de Suarez, Justin complains to Hilda that he got gym detention because of her. He had to, like, arrange all the soccer balls. Hilda wants to go back, but Justin thinks that will make matters worse. She wonders if she should change her approach and makes snipping motions with her hair scissors. Justin thinks the whole thing is getting too Sweeney Todd for his liking. I'd have a slice of Coach Diaz's meat pie any day.
