BE TTY: Previously on Ugly Betty...
Gene Simmons is my father.
- Daddy? - Daughter?
I'm going to start a magazine. Hot Flash!
If I can't marry into the Meade family, I will give birth to an heir.
WILHELMINA: We need to find a surrogate we can control.
Do we feel pregnant yet?
How long am I trapped here for?
- I'm Renee. - I'm Daniel.
Meade. I know.
(GASPS)
I see you met my sister.
You think it's too early to start planning family vacations?
You're a fool, Daniel. You have no idea what you're getting yourself into.
You just really seemed to up your game when Betty showed up.
What?
I don't think I'm the Suarez sister you like.
- Tell me who you're dating! - Henry from Accounting, there!
- More. - BETTY: He got Charlie pregnant.
I know you're leaving in five months.
And I know that I'm gonna get my heart broken. But maybe it's worth it.
(CLASSICAL MUSIC PLA YIN G)
What is this place?
Where am I?
(CARRIAGE APPROACHING)
You're in the most amazing place ever!
Henry...
Happy birthday, Betty.
I don't understand.
We're here because you're going to have the best birthday of your life.
(ALARM CLOCK BEEPING)
Mmm.
Mmm!
Good morning!
There she is. The birthday girl.
Feliz cumpleaños, mi amor.
Thank you, Papi.
Happy birthday, chica. Oh, I got something for you.
Ow!
What? You want 23 more?
Love the bag, Aunt Betty. Vuitton?
No, it's a fake. I got it from some guy selling it off a blanket on 6th Avenue.
You know, you make it really hard for me to live vicariously through you.
So I know you didn't want anything special this year, but maybe,
before you head off for the Poconos, some birthday pancakes?
Daddy, I love your birthday breakfasts,
but Henry and I want to get an early start.
Well, I hope you and Henry have a wonderful weekend.
And, don't forget your cupcakes!
Oh, I won't.
HILDA: It was nice of Daniel to give you the day off.
I know, he was great about it.
Except that he says now I owe him one. Someone has a short memory.
Okay, I know you told us not to, but...
(GASPS)
(EX CLAIMS)
A cell phone! Justin, this is... Wait, is this my cell phone?
Turn it over.
(GASPS)
Wow.
I love it!
- Fierce, huh? - Very.
(IMITATES SNARLING)
- Don't do that. - No?
- No. - No, okay.
Guys, I love you. I will see you Sunday night! I'm so excited!
Love you!
You too!
They're gonna have such a good time this weekend.
(SIGHS HEAVILY)
Papi, what's wrong?
She forgot the cupcakes.
(KNOCKING AT DOOR)
DANIEL: Just a minute.
Did you shave your arms? They look bigger.
Daniel, I know we've had our issues...
You tried to ruin my magazine,
destroy my family, marry my father on his deathbed...
Some bigger than others.
But I never personally wished you any harm.
(SCOFFS)
That's why I'm here to warn you about Renee.
Renee has a history with men.
She becomes needy, erratic, obsessive...
It probably has something to do with Daddy withholding affection
while we were growing up. I mean, I've dealt with it well,
but Renee, on the other hand...
Stop. You don't have to say any more.
I don't believe anything you have to say.
Stony Brook.
- What? - Ask my sister about Stony Brook,
if you really want to get to know her.
How was I?
Excellent! Sincere but not condescending.
Just the right dash of menace. And your breasts, of course,
look amazing. You've gotten under his pasty, hairless skin, woman.
Well, I better. Renee's a loose cannon.
I can't have that, not with what I've planned.
Oh, God, this bloody window.
Is a nice breeze too much to ask for?
I bet my sister had it bolted shut.
Evil robots don't need oxygen.
Let me help you.
Go on, please.
(EX CLAIMING)
This should freshen things up a wee bit.
(EXHALES)
No candles. Ever.
Okay.
Christina... Okay, wait... Repeat, please, and try to enunciate.
I'm saying, there's something going on with her.
And I am going to find out what it is.
With who?
(VOICE BREAKIN G) Wilhelmina's sister.
Renee. She's strange. Like, just now like, listen, I tried to light a candle
and she totally freaked out.
What? A candy? What type of candy? Why were you lighting it?
A candle!
I can't hear you. Justin bedazzled my cell phone,
and I think there's glue in the circuitry.
(FEEDBACK S CREECHIN G)
I know. It's a mystery. But I'm going to find out.
Okay, I'll talk to you later.
Happy birthday to me...
Henry! Birthday girl in the house!
I'm ready to get in the car and go on our adventure!
I love adventures! Where are we going?
Charlie.
I didn't even know you were in town.
Well, you know, I've been trying for months to get into this parenting
seminar with Harvey Karp. He's like this amazing baby doctor.
- He's like a baby guru genius. - Betty...
Anyway, so I get a phone call yesterday and they have an opening
in his seminar this weekend. So...
This weekend?
Can you just give us a minute?
Oh, right, yeah, yeah, of course, sure.
(GASPS)
The baby kicked! The baby kicked! It's so excited to see its daddy!
(GIGGLES)
Betty, listen, she just showed up. I already told her
she can go to that seminar without me. We can still go away.
No, no, no, Henry...
What are you supposed to do? It's for the baby.
But it's your birthday weekend!
I know, I know. But maybe we don't have to go away.
We could just celebrate here in New York. It's New York!
There's restaurants and nightclubs and I will organize the ultimate birthday
extravaganza, to which you are invited.
Betty, you're unbelievable.
Only when I'm with you.
CHARLIE: Henry, I can't find the toothpaste!
Top left drawer!
- I'll see you tonight. - Okay.
Alexis! I got the numbers you sent me on Mom's magazine.
Good. Because we really need to talk.
Oh, my God, what are you doing?
Trying on the new Domingo line.
Oh, get over it. When we were kids we used to bathe together.
Yeah, well, when we were kids, you were a boy.
So did you look at Mom's budget?
Yeah, I did. I think she's finally lost it.
This was supposed to be a hobby to make her feel better,
not a real magazine.
And check this out. She wants to do an ongoing series
about extreme adventure for the over-50 set.
It only adds 50,000 an issue.
You've got to talk to her.
No. You wanted to be in charge, this is your problem.
Amanda! Hey, so, look, I know I'm not supposed to be here because
it's my birthday and I was going away for the weekend.
- To Des Moines? - The Poconos.
Well, anyone who's anyone is going to Des Moines.
My dad, Gene Simmons, who's in the band KISS, is playing there tonight.
Rock and roll! I love saying that. It totally feels right.
Anyway, my plans have changed,
so I'm here. And I kind of have a problem.
- Right. Because you're turning 40? - 24.
I need to plan a great New York birthday.
And I figure, if anyone knows, Amanda knows.
Where is the most romantic place to have dinner in New York?
Oh, my God. Right now, the Pemberly Inn is so hot.
If I could sit on the patio at sunset, I would make out with, well, you.
Okay. Pemberly Inn. Got it. Thanks!
Happy 50th!
Good morning, Daniel. I bet you're surprised to see me.
DANIEL: Uh...
Should I be? Right. You weren't supposed to come in today.
I'm sorry, I've had a weird morning.
Glad you're feeling better.
I'm not sick. It's sort of a special day today.
Oh, my God. Oh, of course. I almost forgot.
- It's okay. - Renee is coming for lunch.
Could you make sure and order us something really special?
Okay. All right, now, invites for tonight, you have three options.
(EX CLAIMS)
Dugout seats to the Yankees game and drinks with Derek Jeter.
Fun. Moby and Natalie Portman's private reception for Julian Schnabel
at the Gagosian. Cool. VIP tickets to the New York Philharmonic
in Central Park, and fireworks. Not really up your alley.
I'll just get rid of these.
No, wait, concert with fireworks?
That sounds kind of...
Dangerous. I know. I'm glad you're not going.
No, hang on. Maybe Renee and I could...
You know what, forget it.
I really don't want to get grass stains on these pants anyway.
Good point.
The whole weekend is off? What happened?
Charlie happened.
She showed up for a "surprise" visit.
Well, now we gotta do something for Betty.
No, she already made other plans.
She's going to a concert in the park tonight with Henry.
Papi, you know how much it means to her to be with him tonight.
I know. But it means something to me
to have the family together on birthdays.
Hey, what if I bring your cupcakes over to Henry's,
and then they can eat them under the stars tonight,
and, like, we'll be there in spirit.
Getting eaten.
Whoa.
Sorry about the outfit. I just came from hip-hop class.
I have big news. I found the perfect apartment.
- Really? - Yeah!
And guess where it is?
On Spring, right around the corner from your place.
(EX CLAIMS)
Sounds great.
Okay. You're blinking a lot. What's wrong?
Oh, no, I... It's just, everything's happening so fast.
You know, how well do we really know each other?
What are you saying?
Wilhelmina stopped by my place this morning. And she said some things
and I'm just gonna ask you, Renee, what is "Stony Brook"?
Stony Brook.
- What is Stony Brook? - Yeah.
It's a state college on Long Island. I went to school there, Daniel.
Sure, I was a little wild. I had a few boyfriends. You're not the only one
- who had a life before we met. - No...
I'm amazed that you would even care what my sister has to say,
after everything that's happened with you two.
- Renee, I'm sorry, I just... - No. I'm sorry.
Why don't you call me when you're ready to trust me a little?
Yes, a table for two, on the patio...
Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah, I understand. No problem. Thanks.
Just could you do me a favor? Could you tell your manager
that Mode won't be needing the Pemberly Inn for our big fashion week
party where we spend many hundreds of thousands of dollars?
Oh, what's that? Something just opened up?
Great. It's "Suarez." S-U-A-R-E-Z. Thank you.
(SQUEALS)
Whoa! Gio... Your hair...
Summer's coming, gotta let the head breathe.
So, where've you been?
Around. You know. Just working and living. Yep, working and living.
So, the Pemberly Inn, huh? What's the occasion?
It's my birthday.
Happy birthday!
- Thanks. - So you're going to dinner with Henry?
Yeah, we were supposed to go away for the weekend, but, Charlie showed up.
Oh, the baby mama.
Yeah, but it's fine, it's fine. Henry and I are going to have a perfect night,
right here in Manhattan. An intimate dinner, and then a concert,
and fireworks in the park.
You know, the only thing missing is a carriage ride.
Yeah.
Wait, a carriage ride?
- Yeah. - Why did you say that?
I don't know, it just seemed like something you'd be into.
- It was good to see you. - You, too.
I'm sorry we don't talk as much anymore.
Yeah, well. You know. Just, working and living.
Yeah. Working and living.
- You bitch. - Well, hello to you, too.
Why are you trying to break up me and Daniel?
Renee, we both know what happens to you
when things get too serious with men.
This is nothing like Stony Brook.
Good. It took a lot of work to clean up that mess.
I'm warning you. Leave us alone, or you'll regret it, Wilhelmina.
I'm sure I'm not the only one around here with secrets.
(RINGING)
Yes, Amanda.
What's your favorite thing about getting old? Is it your hair thinning?
Or when kids ask you about Vietnam?
Can I help you with something?
Yeah. You know that guy you're always pretending is your boyfriend?
He's on line two.
Hey, birthday girl!
Hi! I'm so glad you called. I have a surprise for tonight.
One word, fireworks.
- That's two words. - No, technically that's one word.
Nerdapalooza...
Amanda, get off the phone.
Well, I have a surprise for you, too.
Henry, I have to go. My day is about to get a lot better,
but I'll call you back, I love you, bye!
Daniel! This is so sweet!
Oh, good. It'd better be. Because I gotta tell you,
Renee is really mad at me.
What is it with me and women, Betty? It's like no matter what I do,
I'm always letting them down.
Especially the ones I care about the most.
Uh-huh.
Can you just make sure she gets that as soon as possible?
Okay. I'll send a messenger right away.
Cupcakes? That's so sweet. But didn't you hear?
There isn't going to be a birthday date.
Oh, didn't you hear? Henry and Betty have a whole new plan for tonight.
Fancy dinner, romantic concert in the park, and then afterwards, fireworks,
if you know what I mean.
Well, you know what, that's great for them.
That Betty, she sure doesn't let anything get in her way, does she?
No, she doesn't. But if it does, I got her back.
These are not just decorative.
(SCREECHING)
See ya.
- So what do ya think? - Wow, Mom, it's so saucy.
I know. And if you look closely, you can see a nipple imprint.
I've still got it.
(IMITATES SIZZLING)
So listen, Mom. We need to talk.
Oh, that sounds ominous. What is it?
It's about the budget for Hot Flash.
Given the current realities of the market, I just...
I can't put any more money into the project.
You're cutting me off? We haven't even launched yet.
And I still need funding for a staff!
- I'm sorry. - Don't do this to me.
- You're my daughter. - I'm also your boss.
(GROANING)
- RENEE: Let me help you with that. - I've got it, thank you.
Wil said you'd be coming by.
She sure is working you with all this baby stuff.
I know, but it's nothing compared to what she must be going through,
planning for motherhood and all.
Where is she anyway?
Deep tissue massage.
Yeah, she skipped the baby CPR class and made Christina go alone.
Of course she did. Well, maybe the massage
will help circulate the ice in her veins.
Oops, did I say that out loud?
No, honey, please, it's okay. I know how my sister is.
So, it is happy hour. I was just about to make myself a drink.
- You like chocolatinis? - Liquor and chocolate?
Oh, gee, I don't know... Bring it.
(TOILET FLUSHING)
Betty?
- Mrs. Meade! - I'm so sorry.
I've tried to keep up the appearance that I never use the bathroom.
I hope you won't think less of me.
Oh, no. No, I really, really won't.
Are you okay?
Well, my own daughter just told me that
she doesn't believe in my magazine.
Alexis said that?
Well, not in so many words. But it was pretty clear.
She thinks the magazine is just a fantasy, a pipe dream.
So, I have decided not to move forward with Hot Flash. I'm calling it quits.
No! Mrs. Meade! So, what if it is a fantasy?
That doesn't mean you can't make it come true. Just today,
all of my dreams were crushed. And I picked myself up,
I utilized my resources, and now things are going to be even better.
Betty, what resources do I have?
Everyone I know has turned their back on me.
But you're the most resourceful person I know.
You can do anything.
You're very perky, you know that?
I've heard that before.
So what dreams of yours were crushed today?
Well, it's my birthday,
and there was a change in plans. But everything is fine.
Henry and I are going to dinner. How do I look?
- Oh, no, no, I couldn't. - Yes, you can.
(ON VOICEMAIL) Hey, it's Betty! Leave a message, I'll call you back.
Hey, Betty. I've got some bad news.
Charlie's not feeling well, so I'm gonna have to take her to the doctor.
Don't go to the restaurant. I'll meet up with you later.
Betty, I'm so sorry. I love you.
RECORDED VOICE: One unheard message.
HENRY ON VOICEMAIL: Betty...
(S TA TIC BUZZIN G)
... go to the restaurant...
I'll meet up with you... I love you.
"Suarez." Reservation for two.
So Willie really got that girl to eat dog food?
That girl was her best friend!
She called it a "loyalty test."
Portrait of a Mean Girl, age15. Wilhelmina's always been good
at getting people to do things they didn't want to do.
(WHISPERING) She still is.
- Really? - Oh, yeah.
- How so? - Well, she practically forced Christina
to carry this baby so she could get the money to save her husband's life!
- No! - Yes!
And when Christina finds out who the sperminator is...
I thought it was an anonymous donor?
It's Bradford Meade!
- No! - She stole the sperm from his dead
corpse, and when the bastard heir is born, she'll finally get her hands
on a third of the Meade empire.
Oh, I think I'm gonna vomit. Excuse me. Thank you.
(FRENCH S ON G PLA YIN G)
Are you ready to order?
Actually, no, not yet.
Or, you know what, I could start with the...
The cheese fondue.
That dish is for two people.
Oh, yeah, there will be two of us. My boyfriend is
on the way. He's coming.
It is a lot of cheese.
We're hungry.
Okay. One cheese fondue for you and your boyfriend.
Okay. Okay, Henry. Thanks for calling.
- Henry is canceling on Betty? - Charlie's not feeling well.
- Yeah, right. - Beatch.
What? You know you guys were thinking it.
All right, familia Suarez. You know what this means.
Betty needs a party. I got the piñata!
- I'll clear a dance floor! - And I'm making the cupcakes!
And I was like, "Slow your roll, Mary-Kate,
"you just can't call dibs on every hot piece of..." Pie. Gotta go.
That is so sweet of you, thank you.
Yeah, well, it's for Betty.
- Ha. - What?
You just reminded me of a really funny story.
See, Betty's boyfriend called earlier, and he is totally blowing her off
for their big birthday date tonight. See?
Did you give her this message?
I'm a receiver, not a giver. Can I have that now?
Mmm!
How precious. Did you make it yourself?
It's a gift. From Daniel. With all his love.
Oh, you're not going to ruin this relationship, Wilhelmina.
Not unless you want your own dirty laundry out in the open.
Whatever are you talking about?
I know about Bradford's baby. And your plan to get your claws
into the Meade fortune. Oh, I know about all of it.
- You know nothing. - Hmm.
MARC ON TAPE: She stole the sperm from his dead corpse,
and when the bastard heir is born,
she'll finally get her hands on a third of the Meade empire.
Oh, I think I'm gonna vomit.
Last time I checked, sperm-stealing was illegal.
I think this is all Daniel's gonna need to go straight to the police.
- Unless... - Unless what?
Unless you leave me and Daniel alone.
Let me have what I want, and you can have what you want.
- You really want to do this? - Oh, yes.
Very well, then.
I'm gonna go spend the night at my boyfriend's.
(CHATTERING)
Madame...
Mademoiselle. Please, I'm only 24.
Yes. I'm so sorry.
See, it has been a while and it is Friday night. And we are very booked.
- And? - There is a couple
waiting for this table. It is their anniversary...
- It's my birthday. And my boyfriend... - He's not here.
We apologize. May I offer you a doggie bag for the cheese?
(CHATTERING)
Betty!
Gio? What are you doing here?
And why are you in a carriage?
Henry left a message with Amanda. He can't make it tonight.
Charlie.
So, I'm not trying to take his place or anything,
but when I heard you were on your own, I remembered my cousin drives
these things for tourists. And I thought, she deserves to have a little fun.
So, what do you say? Want to ride?
- I don't know, Gio... - Come on.
Once around the block.
Fine. Once around the block.
All right.
(HORSE NEIGHS)
Willie, I know I screwed up, but breaking into Daniel's apartment,
isn't that a felony? I'm too pretty for prison.
They'll pass me around like a collection plate at a Catholic church.
Stop whining. You owe me. And prison is exactly where I'll end up
if they find out how this baby was really conceived.
I feel like you'd do well in prison.
I would. Now, relax. You don't have to break in.
Don't you think I would've had an extra set
of keys made for Daniel's apartment?
Marc, you underestimate me.
I hate myself even more. Okay, Willie. I'm going in.
But if I don't make it out alive...
We'll always have Bergdorf's, darling.
We all know what it's like to be ignored, taken for granted.
Not valued.
But that is never going to happen to the staff at Hot Flash magazine.
Because this isn't just a job...
It's a family.
Speaking of family, I'd like to introduce you all
to my beautiful daughter, Alexis Meade.
Hello.
Can I talk to you for a sec, Mom? What's going on?
I thought I told you there's no money to hire a staff.
Relax, darling, I don't need your money or anyone else's.
I'm using my own resources.
Turns out there's a work program for recently released inmates.
It's subsidized by the state, so my overhead is minimal.
- They're prisoners? - Ex-prisoners. Like me.
Mom, do any of them have any experience?
They have life experience.
And that's what Hot Flash is all about.
Your life just changed, what do you do now?
I can't think of a better talent pool.
All right, let's get back to work. Phew! Anybody have a fan? It is hot in here.
And on the weekend of my tenth birthday, there was this blizzard.
So no one could get to the party and we couldn't leave the house.
So, we had to eat leftover cake for weeks.
- Well, that's not so bad. - Yeah.
(EX CLAIMS)
Why are we stopping?
Snowflake has to take care of some business.
Oh!
Sorry. Not quite the birthday you imagined, huh?
It's my own fault. I had this stupid fantasy.
Fireworks. Epic romance. Like Romeo and Juliet.
You know those two ended up dead in a tomb, right?
Yeah, I don't like thinking about that part.
GIO: Fantasies are fun, but we live in reality. It's not perfect.
But that doesn't mean it can't be pretty good.
I know. I know, I know, and it is. I'm lucky.
Except for the part where Henry's leaving me after his baby's born.
It's getting late. I should get home.
Nah. You're not going home.
- I'm not? - Nope. We're heading to Central Park.
We can still catch the end of that show. Betty wants fireworks for her birthday,
she's getting fireworks!
(HORSE NEIGHING)
Hello?
Hello.
Oh!
Daniel Meade, you naughty, naughty boy.
DANIEL: What are you doing?
Oh, God! I... I'm... I'm...
- I want you. - Excuse me?
You, you big, sexy magazine editor.
I want you. I love you. I've always loved you.
Stop that!
- This smells like Wilhelmina. - No,
it smells like the beginning of something beautiful!
I'm calling the police.
Well, we'll always have this moment! Ciao!
Have you heard from Betty?
Her phone's not working. Here comes somebody.
Is it her? No, I need more time! This banner is sub-par!
Just hang it! Who cares?
(KNOCKING AT DOOR)
It's not Betty.
Hi.
Hi. I thought you were at the doctor.
I was, everything's fine. They couldn't find anything wrong.
I think Charlie was just trying to ruin my night with Betty.
- I can't believe I fell for it. - Me either.
But this is your baby we're talking about. What are you gonna do, right?
Thanks. I'm just glad I didn't miss Betty's party completely. Is she here?
Not yet. Thank you.
I don't think we're going to make it. It sounds like it's almost over.
Somebody had to stop for hot chocolate.
What? We're gonna make it. Okay?
(HORSE NEIGHING)
What was that?
Oh, crap. I busted a wheel. I'm gonna try to rig something up.
Oh, okay, well, here, I can help.
No, no, no! You stay in the carriage. I don't want you to dirty your dress.
Betty!
You okay?
- I'm okay... - Oh, no...
(CHUCKLING SADLY)
Man, I think I have a...
Napkin.
- Okay. - Thanks.
I'm so sorry, Betty.
This night sucks, huh?
And you're such a great girl. You're so good.
And nice. And you deserve to have an amazing birthday.
Gio, it's not your fault. You did everything you could. It's fine.
No. No, it's not. I'm...
You know, I'm not a big believer in this whole fantasy thing,
but I at least wanted you to have a little bit of yours.
I'm sorry. I wasted your whole night.
No, look. Look!
Fireworks.
In my arms tonight, I'm longing to hold you tight
My dreams are so real, I want you to see
You'll be holding me every night
In your arms and out of sight
You found Marc with your underwear? This smells like Wilhelmina.
Oh, my... That is exactly what I said!
You know, look, I stupidly let her get to me this morning.
I messed up. I am sorry.
No, I'm sorry, too, Daniel.
Because I haven't told you everything.
You can. Trust me.
All right.
Well, it was back in college, at Stony Brook.
I had a breakdown. And I went to a treatment facility. I still see a shrink.
And...
I take these every day.
It was a long time ago, you know, but...
I guess I'm still a little sensitive about it.
Thank you, for telling me the truth.
But if you think for a second
that's gonna make me want to be with you any less,
- you're wrong. - Really?
Don't take that apartment. Will you move in with me?
Oh, hell, yeah!
I wonder what Mr. Dull and Sister Crazy are doing right now.
Don't look at me. I don't get straight people. Who puts what where?
(CELL PHONE BUZZING)
It's all so confusing.
Speak of the she-devil.
Renee, what a surprise.
Do you have a minute, Wilhelmina? I'd like to rub something in your face.
Well, someone's already doing that right now, but go ahead.
Daniel and I are moving in together!
Yeah, he's out getting champagne to celebrate as we speak.
Hip, hip, hooray.
And Willie, I know what you're up to.
Did you really think I'd be so stupid as to just
leave that recording lying around?
Well, you can't blame a girl for trying.
I am not going away. So, if you or Marc interfere again,
I will release that recording to everyone.
And it'll be all over for you, Wilhelmina.
Like I give a Tinker's fart about that recording.
No one's going to believe the rantings of a drunken fool.
- Hey! Feelings... - Out.
And no one's going to believe a crazy woman, either. Show me.
Are you sure those are the right pills?
They were the ones in that hideous green bag.
- What'd you replace them with? - Your fat blockers.
They were the only ones that matched.
Marc! We want her crazy, not crazy and thin!
- Oh, you're right! - Well, no matter.
Those pills are all that stand between my sister and the nut house.
In a few days, she'll start losing her grip on reality.
And then, my plan will be in motion.
Sorry, Renee. I've got too much riding on this.
In!
IGNACIO: Hey...
- Hey. - You're home.
Hilda and Justin are asleep. And, he wanted to wait for you.
I can't believe you guys did all of this and I missed it.
You didn't have to do anything special for me.
You know what? I think all this was more for me.
Doing these kind of things, it makes me feel good.
Like I'm taking care of my little girl. But you're a grown-up now.
You don't need me making cupcakes anymore.
Papi,
there will never be a day when I don't need cupcakes.
(CHUCKLES)
Or you.
Actually, I could really use one of those cupcakes right about now.
Well, I may have a few dozen left in the kitchen.
Really? You're the best.
Hey, Willie, you know I've never been one to second-guess your choices,
but can I ask you a question, friend to friend?
Oh, Marc. You know I hate when things get personal between the two of us.
I do, I do, I know. But it's just,
what we're doing... I mean, Renee's your sister.
There are things in her past, Marc, terrible things.
You have no idea what she's done or what she's capable of.
Renee and I were...
(STATIC CRACKLING)
Oh.
(STATIC BUZZING)
I know you think I'm the evil sister, Marc.
But at least I stop short of murder.
Mmm.
This is the best birthday present I got all day.
(IGNACIO CHUCKLING)
Gracias, mi hija. Oh, I almost forgot.
What?
I'm supposed to make sure you get this.
(GASPS)
- Daniel? - Mmm-hmm.
Well, when did he...
He dropped it off a couple of weeks ago.
He just wanted to make sure he didn't forget.
He remembered he'd forget.
Oh.
I'm gonna call it a night.
- Happy birthday, sweetie. - Thank you, Daddy.
- Te quiero. - I love you, too.
Betty, you're here.
Yeah. I didn't want to wake you.
I never got a chance to tell you.
Happy birthday.
Thank you.
I'm sorry it wasn't perfect.
Yeah. Me, too.
Because you love me, yes, you love me
In my dreams
