Ugly Betty, Grey's Anatomy, & Private Practice - 4/30/09

Ugly Betty: It's back! The show had been on hiatus (?sp) for a while, but was back last week. (Sorry it's taken me so long to write about them...although no one probably reads this anyway.) Wilhemina thought that maybe the baby wasn't hers, since people kept saying that it looked like Christina (the surrogate), so she had some DNA tests done & it turned out that Willie is the mom. So, she fired Christina as the Nanny. That was sad because Willie never takes care of the baby (as I'm sure a lot of rich people do) & Christina had gotten attached to him. Betty's boyfriend's (whose name has escaped me) rich dad apparently has a HUGE well-known fundraiser every year that Betty & her family got invited to. Daniel found out & was so jealous, since he had always wanted to be invited to this event. Mode is broke, so Daniel wanted to get Betty's boyfriend's dad to be an investor for Mode. The boyfriend didn't want to get his dad involved, so there were arguments about this, but eventually, Betty snuck Daniel into the big Easter Egg hunt (the fundraiser) & Daniel finally got to talk to the boyfriend's dad about investing. He made Daniel be the Easter bunny (in a costume) & "jump through hoops" to humiliate Daniel before he would agree to anything. But eventually he did & Mode should be getting back on track.

Grey's Anatomy: Izzie's mom came to visit & drove her crazy. She thought that Izzie just had a little skin cancer & that she would just have that removed & everything would be O.K. Izzie & Dr. Bailey just told her that she was getting better so she would go home. Izzie is still planning Derek & Meredith's wedding, which is happening tonight. Dr. Hunt continues his therapy & keeps telling Christina random things when he sees her in the halls, etc. She finally stops him & asks him why he keeps saying things like "How's it going?" He tells her that his therapist told him to make a list of 3-word phrases that he can say to Christina instead of the 3-word phrase that he WANTS to say to her. Because he's "damaged" & no good for her right now. I can't wait for tonight's episode. Probably a 2-hour show, but I'm not sure.

Private Practice:
This episode (season finale) was really good, as most season finales normally are. We find out that Naomi accepted the position w/ the other practice, which (as we learn in this episode) is Charlotte's replacement. The head of her practice tells Charlotte that no one really likes working w/ her & that he needs someone w/ a heart to run his practice. Sam tells Naomi that he's still in love w/ her. Pete finally "man's up" & decides to "fight" for Violet. Violet is happy & tells Pete that she loves him, she goes home extremely happy....the doorbell rings, she answers the door, & there's the crazy lady that had lost her baby. She injects Violet w/ some sort of paralyzing drug so she can steal her baby & leave Violet for dead. She says that Violet stole her baby. CRAZY! So, the show ends right before she cuts into Violet's abdomen. I think the only other thing that happened on the show is that Dell got his daughter back. Betsy's mom shows up all strung-out on something. She tells Dell that she needs $10,000 & that, if he gives it to her, she'll give him Betsy back. So, in the end, Sam gives him a check for $10,000 to give to her. He gets her in the office (I assume by telling her that he has the money), he gets Betsy, & then refuses to give her the money. So she leaves, saying that she'll get Betsy back. Whatever...she's all high. What Judge would let her have that little girl when she's like that? Anyway, it was a good episode. And it makes me anxious for the return.
