Episode 19 – Hello Goodbye – Part 1
Wilhelmina has survived the shooting, but is in a coma. The fashion world is sure that it was her long-standing enemy, Claire, who shot her. Wilhelmina awakens in the hospital to see Connor who tells her, “I can’t live without you.” Willie promises Connor she’s a “changed woman,” and then proves it by refusing a pay-off from Claire to lie that Tyler wasn’t the shooter. Betty hasn’t yet told Daniel she’s taken the job in London. “He gave me my start. I owe him everything,” she tells Hilda. She’s about to tell Daniel but then he asks her to write his bio for the 100th issue of Mode, and tells her, “There’s no way I could have done this issue without you. We make a good team.” Daniel finally finds out Betty is leaving and takes the news surprisingly well. A little too well, as he then flips out when she needs him to sign a form releasing her from a contract and burns it instead! He tells her he needs to think about it, but if he stalls too long, she could lose the job in London! Claire realizes what this is about, asking Daniel, “Are you sure this isn’t about more than Betty’s editing skills?” and suggests that he has feelings for her. “If you are having such a hard time with her leaving, you need to give her a reason to stay.”
