So a whole lot went on in the second episode of Ugly Betty. Where to begin? It’s been a few days since I saw it, so hopefully I can remember everything.

Hilda and Justin dealt with Santos’ death in this episode, packing up his things to get rid of and keep what they wanted to hold onto. Justin also continued working at Mode and basically was the only intern to do anything right and impressed Mark. A touching little scene with Mark telling Justin even though his dad was gone, he did a good job and should be happy and proud of himself, it was okay. He then told Amanda how he was a great person as he made a little person happy! Too funny.

Amanda is still waiting on the test results to find out if she is Bradford’s daughter. In the meantime she’s taking care of Faye’s dog.

Willamina got a body guard to protect her from Claire and had an affair with him! Unfortunately she was caught by Betty, who was breaking in to her place steal “The Book” for Daniel. Daniel needed to approve of it, and Wilamena of course is trying to usurp the thrown and control of the magazine as usual.

Willamina kept Betty quiet about the affair and basically on her side against Daniel by arranging for Ignacio to get his Visa and come home. Poor Betty, she somehow always ends up under Willamina’s thumb.

Henry returned in this episode, but he had a whole lot of issues. He wants to be with Betty, but loves the idea of being a father. Therefore he was confused, and Betty wasn’t going to be the one to break his heart. Christina finally told him that Charlie cheated, the kid may not be his. Somehow I don’t think Betty and Henry’s reunion is going to be an easy one at all.

Bradford saw a second chance to make things right with Alex/Alexis this week and took it. Alex/Alexis couldn’t recall most of the past two years, including his sex change. Some of the best scenes was her grabbing her own boobs and giving Daniel the thumbs up. Daniel of course doesn’t like that his father is suddenly accepting of Alexis, when in fact he originally told her she was dead to him. He also doesn’t like that his father is lying about his upcoming wedding to Wilamena to Alexis. Bradford explained he almost lost Alex twice, he wouldn’t lose him/her again.

Of course because Alex/Alexis doesn’t know about the wedding, Bradford suggested they postpone it until Alexis is better and stronger. Wilamena was not happy. I however was. I want Claire to come back and kick some serious Willamina butt and soon!

Finally the episode ended with Ignacio set to come home when he was accosted by someone, probably sent by his wife’s Ex who wants to get his revenge. Oh no! I was wondering when this part was finally come back to haunt him.
