Ignacio prepares a combination Christmas/Hanukah dinner for the family and his new interest Jean. Betty and Hilda take the Be-Shure instant pregnancy tests.

Matt asks someone else to be his plus one at Wilhelmina's fund-raiser for Tibetan orphans, and Daniel hires his new BFF Natalie as his assistant, making Betty feel obsolete. Elsewhere, Amanda keeps a secret from Betty, and Daniel discovers that his mother, Claire, has history with Cal Hartley.

The shocking death of a 'Mode' editor leaves Betty and Marc competing for the same job. Meanwhile, Wilhelmina blackmails Claire into announcing her resignation at an awards ceremony.

When Betty becomes concerned that she and Matt are spending too much time together, she tries to give him something else to be passionate about, a surprise gallery showing of his art work, with unintended results.
