This is our weekly live gathering of Ugly Betty fanatics; here we’ll discuss tonight’s episode, “Grin And Bear It”. Most will be after the “more” jump – for some strange reason there are still a few people left of this earth that don’t want Ugly Betty spoilers! 
The episode airs at 8pm EDT. Here is the episode capsule:
Betty takes steps toward becoming a writer and invests in a class that proves to be so challenging, she tosses her own writing assignment and instead submits a Mode story written by a woman who survived a bear attack — with disastrous results. Meanwhile Alexis, still suffering from amnesia, starts back at work with no memory of how to act like a girl, while Daniel gets an ultimatum from their top advertiser — fire Alexis or he’ll take his business elsewhere, and Amanda, on the hunt to find her dad’s identity, learns a deep dark secret about Wilhelmina’s past.
Join us for the Betty Party!
Here’s hoping we see more of Gio.
Starting in the writing class. Victor Garber has already gotten started. Man, he’s a handful!
It’s good to see Ignacio back. OMG, Justin, the gangsta! Alexis is hilarious. I like Kenny (John Cho). Great character. Henry’s coming to Betty’s to tutor Justin. Marc and Amanda are hanging out in the love dungeon. Marc is wearing Bear Bryant’s hat.
My wife says Bradford looks good in purple. Anna Nichole Smith – OMG. Daniel is being very nice to Alexis.
Daniel’s thumbs up to “Makin’ It”! That’s great.
You’re up, crappy! That was a good line. Betty read the wrong story! This should be interesting.
Justin is imitating what he imagines his father was. Betty’s having a dream scene with the bear. A teddy bear attack, that’s too funny!
Wilhelmina: I was a simple girl with an evil plan. Marc: Dooomed! Doomed, I say!
Now the bunny is haunting Betty. I love the threatening stuffed animals.
Last week’s episode was short on comedy; this one is filled with it.
James Van Der Beek’s character is a real jerk. Betty has a real quandry. So does Daniel.
Marc gets hit with a high heel shoe. Bullseye! Amanda just found out that Wilhelmina used to be “Wanda”. And Wilhelmina knows she knows. I wonder what the significance of “Wanda” is.
Betty turns down the New York Review. “You’re carrying low – it’s a boy”. Great flashback. Amanda’s dad has a Tweetybird tattoo on his butt!
Is Wilhemina trying to drive tha magazine into the ground?
The real bear attack woman is at Betty’s desk. Hey, look, a Vera Wang Kohl’s commercial. You think this was “in kind” for the appearance in the “Posh Wedding” episode?
Daniel bails Betty out. That was interesting.
OMG, JUSTIN IN MAKING OUT! With a girl! Who shocks Henry, apparently.
This is a very sweet moment with Betty and Daniel.
Wilhemina gives Amanda the guest list at Studio 54 for the night she was conceived.
You know, I’m starting to think the writers in the show might seriously consider a Daniel/Betty relationship. I’m against it, myself, even for the series finale. SHe needs to turn him down, IMHO.
Alexis hugging Daniel in the men’s room whilst he was peeing – funny. Daniel confesses to Alexis. Ted Kennedy, Warren Beatty, that’s too good. Wilhelmina plans to start “Slater” Magazine after Mode dies.
A reveal: THE BABY IS HENRY’S! Betty tells him to leave. This is sad.
End with Betty reading her story, her real story. This episode was more the Ugly Betty that I love.
Remember full recap coming shortly.
I want to know why so few episodes of Ugly Betty were shown for the 2nd season. maybe it was because of the writer’s strike and if so when will another episode be shown?
