Speaking of Bradford, he's meeting with Mysterious Leatherman on their Park Bench of Great Mystery. It seems that Fey's "estate" is having an estate sale. Why is she letting them get rid of all her stuff? If I am pretending to be dead, I am going to direct my henchmen to stall on that. Bradford sighs that he'll never be rid of Fey. "Who knew you hated Fey Sommers that much?" Mysterious Leatherman wonders aloud. "Who said I hated her?" Bradford retorts, and then announces that he's going to use his key to let himself into Fey's apartment to snoop around for anything that could incriminate him. I have no idea where this story is going. That's a good thing.
Mode. Betty gets an email. The photo attached to it seems to imply that her pink bunny is being tortured. I feel like there's a Fatal Attraction joke here somewhere; I just can't find it. She's worrying about this -- the torture, not my missing joke -- when Evil Marc comes over with The Book for Daniel. He puts it right on Daniel's desk, and tells the man himself that Wilhelmina would like him to pay close attention to "the fanny pack article"; she's not sure they're hitting the right emotional arc, yet. You laugh, but people are emotional about fanny packs. They certainly make me cry. Daniel thanks Evil Marc, who leaves.
Daniel is flipping through The Book when Amanda comes in and tells him that Wilhelmina's office gave her two tickets to Pagliacci at the Met. She implies that she'll totally fool around with him in the box -- okay, she doesn't "imply" as much as "tell him" -- and Daniel's penis overrules his brain, and he leaves the office with her, abandoning The Book on his desk. As they leave, Betty asks if they need anything else. Amanda tells Betty just to keep working: "A little more overtime and you can afford Invisaligns." Betty touches her braces self-consciously as Daniel and Amanda take off, and then goes into Daniel's office to straighten up. She finds The Book on his desk, and calls him to find out if he wants her to take it home for safekeeping or whatever, but of course, she gets the voicemail. As she's leaving her message, she notices that there's a really creepy dude cleaning the windows in Reception, and makes the executive decision to take The Book home with her.
Telenovela time: this week, we've got a maid making out with a priest. Awesome. He is literally holding a Bible while sucking her face. She hauls off and slaps him when they come up for air, and then rubs her pregnant belly. "I am naming him after his father, FATHER!" she yells. He crosses himself, and they start to make out again. That is brilliant.
