Back at work, Betty asks Hilda why she wants to continue seeing Tony. Then, her former semi-romantic interest, Gio, returns, and Betty is thrilled. However, Gio is displeased to see Betty as his trip to Rome alone is not as enjoyable as planned. He tells her he hates her, especially after she turns down his offer to go to Rome, and even bans her from his deli and life. But Betty won't let something like his anger over being dumped get in the way of their friendship. Hence, she schemes to corner Gio by having him deliver dinner to her apartment, which would set many things in motion for Betty; in which she would acquire a cheese ball ([https://www.cheese.com/scamorza/ scamorza]) after he mentions his favorite brand after returning from Italy.

Daniel learns from his attorney that DJ's grandparents from France have shown up to reclaim custody now that they know the truth about Alexis being the father. Fearing DJ will be taken away without explanation, Daniel entrusts DJ to Betty, who brings him home to her apartment, adding more problems for Betty. Later on, when he gets to the apartment, Betty coerces Gio to stay and shows both Gio and DJ a scrapbook of her American adventure, but Gio is not convinced and reveals that he loves her and is heartbroken when she turns down his offer for the trip to Rome. But before the two can talk it over, all of a sudden, the third problem shows up when Tony's wife stops by Betty's apartment, thinking she's the one [Hilda] having an affair with Tony, and when Daniel calls to warn her about DJ's grandparents coming to claim him, Betty believes it's the grandparents after the woman answers the intercom after DJ accidentally pushes it.

Wilhelmina then offers Alexis to drop her charges in exchange for her share of the publication. As Alexis discovers Wilhelmina's plans, Alexis turns down Wilhelmina's offer. But Claire, who knows all about Wilhelmina and the DA (since Claire has given money to the DA's campaign), adds an incentive part to the deal that guarantees all charges against Alexis being dropped by splitting all of Alexis' shares of Meade Publications between Daniel and Wilhelmina (even though it will go to the unborn child), thus making them 50-50 partners and co-editors-in-chief of Mode.

As poor Hilda sympathizes with the woman, she decides it's time to let Tony go after he tells her he'll tell his wife that the money's on the dresser, and he's done with her and does just that.

Betty Suarez Land is the fourth episode of the third season and the 45th episode on Ugly Betty overall.

Synopsis[]

Plot[]

The story begins with Betty arriving at the courthouse as a diversion: she was there to keep the press from seeing Daniel, who snuck in the side door to see Alexis from her holding cell. As Alexis apologizes to Daniel, she reveals to her brother that he is not the father of Daniel Jr. Alexis tells her brother the truth about the paternity results, in which she admits that she also slept with the hand model, resulting in Daniel fighting his sister as the security cameras look on.

Back at work, Betty asks Hilda why she wants to continue seeing Tony. Then, her former semi-romantic interest, Gio, returns, and Betty is thrilled. However, Gio is displeased to see Betty as his trip to Rome alone is not as enjoyable as planned. He tells her he hates her, especially after she turns down his offer to go to Rome, and even bans her from his deli and life. But Betty won't let something like his anger over being dumped get in the way of their friendship. Hence, she schemes to corner Gio by having him deliver dinner to her apartment, which would set many things in motion for Betty; in which she would acquire a cheese ball (scamorza) after he mentions his favorite brand after returning from Italy.

Daniel learns from his attorney that DJ's grandparents from France have shown up to reclaim custody now that they know the truth about Alexis being the father. Fearing DJ will be taken away without explanation, Daniel entrusts DJ to Betty, who brings him home to her apartment, adding more problems for Betty. Later on, when he gets to the apartment, Betty coerces Gio to stay and shows both Gio and DJ a scrapbook of her American adventure, but Gio is not convinced and reveals that he loves her and is heartbroken when she turns down his offer for the trip to Rome. But before the two can talk it over, all of a sudden, the third problem shows up when Tony's wife stops by Betty's apartment, thinking she's the one [Hilda] having an affair with Tony, and when Daniel calls to warn her about DJ's grandparents coming to claim him, Betty believes it's the grandparents after the woman answers the intercom after DJ accidentally pushes it. So she and Gio take DJ to Coney Island, where Daniel eventually comes to his senses by revealing to Betty and Gio the truth, devastating DJ, who runs away. After Gio finds him, Daniel tells DJ he'll return to France with them.

As the now-arrested Alexis goes through a roller coaster of legal tribulations, including possibly being tried for attempted murder and being denied bail for attempting to kill Christina and the unborn baby instead of getting a misdemeanor sentence, Claire decides to make a deal with Wilhelmina, who is of course behind the harsh sentence to get back at her former ally and buy out her stake in Meade Publications, thanks to her affair with the DA. Wilhelmina then offers Alexis to drop her charges in exchange for her share of the publication. As Alexis discovers Wilhelmina's plans, Alexis turns down Wilhelmina's offer. But Claire, who knows all about Wilhelmina and the DA (since Claire has given money to the DA's campaign), adds an incentive part to the deal that guarantees all charges against Alexis being dropped by splitting all of Alexis' shares of Meade Publications between Daniel and Wilhelmina (even though it will go to the unborn child), thus making them 50-50 partners and co-editors-in-chief of Mode. Ultimately, Wilhelmina is pleased with the deal and then hints to Marc that she'll be much closer to ruling Meade Publications when she gets the other half.

Hilda is hopeful that she'll have a happy romantic ending with Tony when the wife goes to see Hilda at the Suarez home after she leaves Betty's place and pleads with Hilda to tell Betty, whom she mistakes for Hilda because of the apartment, to back off so she can work on her marriage after she thought that "Betty" was seeing a "French guy." As poor Hilda sympathizes with the woman, she decides it's time to let Tony go after he tells her he'll tell his wife that the money's on the dresser, and he's done with her and does just that. But Hilda, feeling responsible for ending Tony's marriage, tells him that it is over and he should go back to his wife.

In the end, Betty and Gio finally talk about what happened. Betty apologizes to Gio for hurting him, and Gio admits that "banning" her from his life was stupid. After briefly complimenting Betty's abilities, Gio leaves, and Betty gets a call (presumably a notification about Hilda's situation).

Marc attempts to console Wilhelmina for losing Alexis' portion of Meade and having to share Mode with Daniel, but of course, Wilhelmina has more up her sleeve by now having 50% of the Empire.

After being released, Alexis decides to leave for France and get to know DJ. Alexis, Daniel, and Claire share sweet goodbyes before Alexis goes.

Finally, while at the Suarez home, the family consoles Hilda for making the heartbreaking relationship decision.
