How delicious was last night’s episode of Ugly Betty? Hands down, the best moment was the hammy flash-forward scene where we saw a future version of Betty (America Fererra) reimagined in the divalicious image of Wilhelmina (Vanessa Williams). Honestly, who requests a snack of carrot shavings? And that bit with the puppy at the end? Genius! The sequence produced at least one of the night’s best bites, which is one of the four moments included in our “Quote Off” video pitting the best Betty quips of the night against each other. Watch the video, then vote for your favorite in our poll below. The rest of the night’s best lines are after the jump. Oh, and don’t forget to leave your own comments telling me which of your favorites I missed!
“What’s more romantic than lunch on foot with a view of Riker’sIsland?” — Hilda (Ana Ortiz), while on a quickie lunch date along theriver with hottie boyfriend Coach Tony Diaz (Eddie Cibrian)
“Who cares what the average woman wears on the street? We shouldn’tbe taking their picture — we should be throwing rocks at them.”— Wilhelmina, while making editorial decisions for Mode
“Aunt Betty, you have to go back to Mode. Player getsme nothing. It’s like I’m stuck in a sand trap at the bottom of theninth quarter. Listen to me: I’m already changing!” — Justin (MarkIndelicato), mixing up his sports terminology, thus explaining whatBetty’s job change is doing to him
“This is my favorite part of the job: injecting deadly poison intomy boss’s head.” — Marc (Michael Urie), just before giving Wilhelminaher regular dose of Botox
“Oh, I’m so numb up there I wouldn’t know if you hit bone.”— Wilhelmina, after Betty questions whether she’s the person to beadministering the diva’s Botox
“I would rather eat butter!” — Marc, as Betty asks for his help
“Hush little homo, don’t you cry / Mandi’s gonna steal you a Pradatie” — Amanda (Becki Newton), comforting b-fri Marc after Betty stealshis job
“Now be a dear and go fetch me some carrot shavings. I’m feelingsnackish.” — Betty, doing her best (and totally awesome) version ofWilhelmina
“Mom, leopard and zebra? They fight each other in the wild. You’llnever survive the evening!” — Justin, chiding his mother Hilda for herfashion choices
“They found oxycontin! Heroin! It’s like Rush Limbaugh fornicatedwith Amy Winehouse and they spawned you!” — Christina (Ashley Jensen),yelling at her husband Stuart (Derek Riddell) after seeing the resultsof his drug test

Still no real TV Watch for Ugly Betty and nothing at all for Pushing Daisies?! You guys are pushing me to leave you for tvsquad and television without pity.
Boo! I want my TV Watch back.
Disappointed too that there is no real recap!! Booo!!!! There is indeed a loyal fan base who loves these recaps.
At any rate, Amanda’s “hush little homo” was hilarious”. And Wilhelmina’s facial expression when she said “girlfriend” to Betty while out on lunch got a LOL from me.
I thought after bringing back the ANTM and House TV Watches that the Ugly Betty TV Watch might be back, but no, it is not. This angers me greatly. I also miss my Pushing Daisies and Private Practice recaps, which anger me even more. Anyways, while I like all the quotes, my favorite was when Marc said to Betty “She wasn’t smiling…she was showing her teeth!” I laughed more at that one than any of the others. But, of the ones above I guess I like Christina’s Amy-Rush comment best.
Bring back the TV Watch recap. It is now official, I have taken EW off my bookmark list. I’ll go to other websites to find information instead of Tiger Beat gossip.
Come on? What happened with the TV Watch, we still have one for Top Model (who cares?), but no real one for Ugly Betty?
No real TV watch? Let’s face it, EW has really gone downhill lately with watches on Survivor, Top Model and Project Runway – seriously, who really watches those anymore? Have there been pages and pages of comments for these shows? Doubt it! Tv watch is needed on newer shows like Finge, Terminator, Mentalist. Plus, EW doesn’t post their review until late in the morning after I’ve blogged, commented and messaged 4-5 other sites. Ho Hum…
No TV Watch…no vote on the poll!
Shame on you EW!
This is weak. Where is our TV Watch?
THIS IS CRAP. . .WHERE IS THE TVWATCH RECAP?
UGH RUIN MY FRIDAY. . .THANKS EW.
WE ARE LOYAL UGLY BETTY FANS…IM GOING TO HAVE TO FIND ANOTHER WEBSITE CUS YOU GUYS ARE NOT DOING RECAPS FOR ALOT OF GOOD SCRIPTED SHOWS!
I GUESS EW DOESNT READ OUR COMMENTS…WE THE FANS ARE NOT HAPPY WITH THIS!
so lame…
WRONG-
Don’t get too discouraged. People on these boards kicked up a fuss when they tried to take away “America’s Next Top Model” and “House” TV Watches and both of those made their returns shortly thereafter.
this sucks & is a sorry replacement for the tv watch. and where’s the stuff for Pushing Daisies. not even a popwatch, where’s the love? there are multiple tv watch posts for such drivel as Dancing with the Stars & The Hills, but not for REAL shows?
Christina to Betty calling Willy the “Wicked Witch of the Eastside”
Wake up EW – everyone wants an Ugly Betty recap! We all said it last week, and instead we get more quotes. You’re failing to hear what your readers want!
WE WANT A RECAP, RECAP RECAP–WE WANT A RECAP REAP!!!!!
I’m tired of seeing tv watches for every show except the good ones. Bones has long deserved a tv watch, but had to stick with a mini pop watch spot, now it doesn’t even have that, no Ugly Betty, Pushing Daisies, Chuck, or Private Practice. Not to mention all the shows that deserve one like NCIS or Fringe which seriously has Lost capabilities for in depth discussions & analysis. The only reason I’m keeping EW on my list is in case there is something about Lost and Ask Ausiello since he doesn’t discriminate against great shows and concentrate on reality crap. Otherwise I’m not checking here anymore because there isn’t anything good being recapped or discussed. It used to take me awhile to read through things on the site, now I skim it in the am & don’t look again until the next day.
RECAP!!
Yea where is my TV WATCH! MICHEAL DON’T DO THIS TO US!
I totally agree. We need a TV watch!! My favorite lines were when Betty and Willy were having lunch. The “girlfriend” comment was awesome. Followed by Wilhemina complimenting Betty’s top.
Betty “No, you don’t”
Willy “You’re right, I don’t. It’s hideous. Like driving through Ohio.”
Awesome.
RECAP!!!!!!!
I HATE this wretched sound bites thing instead of a proper TV watch. I thought this episode was better than the season opener, but I don’t want to discuss it here, I want the TV Watch back.
Seriously, wheres the TV WATCH?!?!?! This is absurd. WE WANT A TV WATCH AND WE WANT IT NOW!!!! Why has EW suddenly decided to skimp on the TV Watches, even the “minis”. GET W/ IT EW – I’M REALLY GETTING PISSED!
Echoing just about everyone else’s sentiments: Ugly Betty and Pushing Daisies TV Watches please!
I REFUSE TO VOTE!
OMG, the carrot shavings line had me cracking up! And the braces?? really? even in the future?
Best quote of the night is when Marc said (about Betty hugging Christina)
…”She must have a donut in her pocket.”
WANT A RECAP, WANT A RECAP, WANT A RECAP!!!
BRIng back TV watch!!! seriousllyyy??!!!! EW gives the hills a tv watch..but not for ugly betty?!!
i want tv watch back plss!!!!!!!!!
Last night’s episode was too funny. Loved the whole scene with Wilhemina and Betty at lunch (more evidence of how Vanessa L. was Emmy-robbed). I loved Christina’s Rush Limbaugh/Amy Winehouse line, that was my favorite!
