Snippet 41 - Ugly Betty's Thanksgiving Tainted


After that, she told him he was smart and handsome, an amazing person, wondering why he was so insecure around Sofia. This was the only woman that gotten under his skin so far. Betty then choose the purple shirt and left.

Hilda and Ignacio did the cooking while Justin helped to lay the table. He was excited that his father was coming and when he heard the door bell, he quickly rushed to the door. His father gave him the present he bought him and Hilda came to welcome him with a kiss, which Justin made sure he took in. Ignacio also came and stood at a little distance until Hilda gave him the “say hello dad” look. He then walked to Santos and shook his hands saying “Glad you could make it”.

Betty went to confirm from the woman Gina mentioned to her, that was defrauded by Lear and found out the truth.

Betty got home and was surprised to see Santos in her house. After exchanging pleasantries, she rushed to the kitchen and another surprise – Lear was already there! She was nervous as she watched Lear and did not hear what her father was telling her. She pulled Hilda by the hand and hurried her to her room to tell her what she just discovered. Hilda refused to believe Betty because the source was Gina Gambarro. She told Betty that she couldn’t handled it because she (Hilda) tackled the whole problem all by herself, the money and the lawyer and that she even helped her father with the cooking. That, Betty wasn’t the golden child anymore and that maybe they don’t need her help any more!

Amanda and Marc wore female costumes and danced as if they were in an opera. They then sat on the floor to talk and she got teary and said “Daniel”, Marc put his arms around her to comfort her. She blamed herself for being stupid, that she knew what the rules were and still fell in love with him even though she didn’t mean for it to happen.

Daniel got to his parents home and was welcomed by his mother with a kiss. The chit-chatted and his father joined in to wish them both happy thanksgiving. Daniel remarked that his father was being supportive by drinking Soda like his mum. Claire and Bradford clinked glass and wished each other happy thanksgiving but Daniel’s attention was already diverted. He saw Sofia just a little distance behind his father. She was talking and laughing with a balding man of late-forties in age. He answered that “I think it just got happier”, as he moves towards Sofia with a confident smile on his face. Sofia greeted with a “hey you” but Daniel who was more interested in getting rid of the man (he though he was Hunter), said “You must be Hunter, I’ve heard so much about you” (Sofia looked down, smiling knowingly), but the man said, “No, no”.
