Episode Report Card Potes: B+ | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT I'm Coming Out
By Potes | Season 1 | Episode 14 | Aired on 01.31.2007
Cut to Christina's line at the Mode show. The Suarez family stands in the back, and Justin says that Christina's show is amazing. Henry waves at Betty, cutely. The final dress -- worn, of course, by Alex/is -- comes down the runway. Good work on the boobs, mystery surgeon! There is a round of applause. The seat next to Bradford is conspicuously absent. Wilhelmina stumbles out blindly and says that that was their final designer, Christina McKinney. Christina comes out and takes a bow, and then Wilhelmina calls Bradford up onto the stage. He says that he has an announcement to make about the future of Meade publications. Alex/is walks up and grabs the microphone from his hand, saying that, though she knows this is Mr. Meade's time, she has an announcement to make as well. Daniel looks on with dread. And, probably, some remaining lust that is really freaking him out. Alex/is says that, two years ago, the Meade family lost its son, Alex. Bradford asks what the hell Alex/is is doing. Alex/is gives him the hand, and says that what Mr. Meade doesn't know is that while he may have lost a son, he gained a daughter. There is a big gasp from the crowd, and Daniel just looks sad. She turns to Bradford and says, microphone still up, "Hi, Daddy. I'm back." Bradfor says, "Alex?" She replies, "You can call me Alexis." Marc's and Amanda's mouths drop, and Hilda and Justin take pictures in unison.
Just then, the police rush up on stage and arrest Bradford for the murder of Fey Sommers. Convenient timing, that. Wilhelmina smirks. Think how much more she would enjoy this whole thing if she could actually see! Paparazzi snap Bradford's arrest, and then Alex/is waves goodbye to him and poses for the cameras. Christina turns to Wilhelmina and says that Wilhelmina used her, what with taking the package to the police and all. Um, yeah. I mean, what did she think was happening? Christina runs off, and Wilhelmina yells, "Used you? I made you a star!" But she's saying it to a lackey who has come to collect her mic, unfortunately. (Nice.) Betty goes to Daniel and asks in wonderment if that's Alex. Daniel says yes, and asks her if it's fun having a sister. Fill in the blanks, man.
Next week: brotherly and sisterly shenanigans! Actual incest unlikely.
