Not too long ago Betty quit Mode to go work for Sofia. In the previous episode "Sofia’s Choice" Sofia revealed to everyone, including Daniel that she was just using him for a magazine article. Betty and Christina go to investigate before all of that and they go to the strip club where Hunter works after Betty sees Sofia hand Hunter a big wad of cash in front of it. They go question him and he tells that he was hired to act like Sofia’s boyfriend for part of the whole plot of using Daniel. Sofia said that you must be unavailible to get someone to propose to you within 60 days, along with many other things. Betty figures that Sofia was just using her just as she did Daniel, after she revealed that she was using him, and Betty quit Sofia’s magazine.

Sofia’s Choice
Just as Daniel gets the strength to pop the question to Sofia (guest star Salma Hayek), Betty discovers evidence that casts doubt on Sofia’s intentions. Meanwhile, Mode staffers are shocked to see a kinder, gentler Wilhelmina, who is being romanced big time by her wealthy Texan (Brett Cullen reprising his role as Ted), and Ignacio finds it very difficult to bond with his immigration caseworker.

Ugly Betty’s first 11 episodes are now availible on iTunes. You can buy a season pass including all current episodes and all future epsidoes of season 1 for 34.99.

ABC’s new original comedy "Ugly Betty" returns with all new episodes Thursday, January 4th at 8/7c. Ugly Betty resumes this thursday with the episode "Swag".

111 - Swag
When Christine announces she’s getting ready to clean out "the closet," Mode’s repository of high fashion clothes and accessories, the assistants whip themselves into a frenzy over who will get the cast-off swag. But Betty is too busy to even think about this perk: A $20,000 expense report she filed for Daniel has been rejected and his credit card cut off, making it impossible for him to wine and dine an important Japanese designer, Oshi (guest star Kurando Mitsutake). Meanwhile, her dad’s HMO has suspended his insurance.

Next Thursday Betty is back with an all new episode "Swag". Watch new episodes of Ugly Bety returning Thursday January 4th at 8/7c on ABC.
