Hat tip: B&B

First off, what’s up with Natalie’s Kate-Gosselin-hair?  Yes, it looks wonderful, but it really changes the character, by looks alone.  Maybe that’s on purpose.  As much as I liked her character in Blue on Blue, I’m guessing she’s going to end up being “the bad guy”, and Betty’s going to have to save Daniel from her.

Anyway, in the sneak peek, Natalie cannot eat restaurant food, she is eating “Maca-greenie and cheese”.  She then has a conversation with Daniel about Gloria, a weird woman from “the group”, who wears leg warmers everywhere.  They say she only eats green foods because they help her “phase” better.

Betty is uncomfortable the whole time, obviously out of the loop and feeling a little left out.  It’s kind pf sad – I’ve been there many times before myself, but Betty keeps her good manners and optimism and tries her best to at least appear interested in Daniel and Natalie’s inside conversation.

It looks like in this episode Betty will be jealous both romantically (Matt and Amanda) and platonically (Daniel and Natalie).  We know that things are going to get worse on at least one front, because Daniel is going to hire Natalie as his assistant.

Anyway, this looks to be another good episode!

Ugly Betty Episode 4.05 Sneak Peek #2

Hat tip: B&B

Betty and Daniel meet at the elevator; Daniel is heading to his group meeting, we don’t know what Betty is doing, but she seems to be leaving for the day.

Daniel tells Betty how “the group” is helping him cope with losing Molly.  He then says he notices she and Matt have been “chummy” lately.  He asks if “there’s anything (about them) she’d like to report".

Betty hems and haws, then mentions that the two of them (Daniel and Betty) have their first “non-professional, just friends”  lunch.

Betty then tells him that she’s going to help him find a new assistant, and Daniel says “how could I ever replace you?”

Daniel seems a little uncomfortable throughout this clip.  It would be interesting to know the circumstances immediately beforehand.

One other noticeable thing, for me, is the lack of Jeff Beal’s background music.  There is hardly ever a scene, and never a scene where two people meet, where there isn’t music, so I’m assuming the clip was created before post-production. But, that’s just a guess – maybe they’ve had more “music-less” scenes in the past than I’ve noticed.

Anyway, it’s great to see the producers give a tip of the hat to the Detty fans in the episode, airing this Friday at 9/8c.
