After yesterday’s wonderful news about Ugly Betty’s early return to the air, ABC has released the title and synopses for episodes 3.20 and 3.21 . We already knew that 3.20 would be entitled “Rabbit Test”. Here is the synopsis for 3.20:
The Suarez family gets an invitation to meet Matt’s famed billionaire dad, Calvin Hartley (guest star David Rasche), at his legendary Easter Egg hunt. While Betty sees this as a chance to get closer to Matt, Daniel seizes the opportunity to get Mode a bailout. Meanwhile Wilhelmina suspects that little William might not be her biological son.
We’ll see, but I think this means that it will be Calvin Hartley who makes Daniel get into the bunny suit. Score one for Ugly Betty News commenter Sir Lizard!
Also, the story line involving Wilhelmina’s baby is going to get really moving along. Important to note: Stuart (Derek Riddell) is in this episode (yes, he’s still alive), along with Dr. Erskine.
The episode was written by Chris Black (3.09, When Betty Met YETI) and directed by Richard Heus (3.18, A Mother of a Problem).
Info on episode 3.21 after the jump!
The title of episode 3.21 (airing May 7th) will be “The Born identity”. Here’s the synopsis:
Just as it looks like billionaire Calvin Hartley (guest star David Rasche) is going to give Mode the bailout it needs so the magazine won’t go under, baby William is kidnapped – and Betty is dragged into the ensuing drama. Meanwhile Archie (guest star Ralph Macchio) asks Hilda to be part of his latest political campaign.
So, the kidnapping does happen. This is how Christina will exit, apparently. Stuart is in this episode, so we know he’ll be heavily involved.
And, of course, we have the return of Archie. I love how they are going to get Hilda involved in Archie’s political life. Including Ana Ortiz’s pregnancy in the story line really wasn’t an option because the timing was all wrong, but this is the next best thing!
The Born Identity was written by Steven Ross (3.04, Betty Suarez Land) and directed by John Terlesky (3.08, Tornado Girl).
I can’t wait for these episodes to air!
Minor mistakes, Tom:
Chris Black was the one that wrote 3.04 “Betty Suarez Land” assisted by Steven Ross (probably this is his debut episode?). he’s been doing more producing than writing anyway.
Hey… you know I was going to protest because the mighty 3.09 “When betty met YETI” was written by BRIAN TANEN. You know I am his fan… *pouts*

“An Ugly Betty source confirms that polar opposite View hostesses Joy Behar and Elisabeth Hasselbeck will play themselves in the May 21 season finale. Here’s the set-up: Daniel is invited to appear as a guest to discuss the latest issue of Mode magazine… or so he thinks. The ladies quickly turn the tables and start grilling him about his dying girlfriend. BTW, if you haven’t heard, Betty’s returning one week earlier on April 30!! Also, SNL’s Rachel Dratch appears in this episode as a Mode staffer!! Why the hell am I screaming?!”

Ahh, forgot to read the fine print at imdb :)
Black was listed as co-producer of WBMY. He’s only listed as writer of Betty Suarez Land and Bad Amanda.
Thanks, B!
