Mode After Hours: Big Package
March 23, 2009 by Tom
With Ugly Betty taking a rest till May, ABC is being nice enough to keep us fans busy with extra content, such as Mode After Hours, the “webisodes” at ABC.com featuring Michael Urie and Becki Newton as Marc and Amanda. Here is the latest installment:
This one is not only entertaining, it actually builds on current storylines. It starts with Marc bringing in a “big package” for Wilhelmina, which turns out to be boxing gloves, a gift from Connor to his fellow “fighter”.
In the course of talking about this, Amanda reveals that she randomly keeps delivered packages for herself, no matter the intended recipient. She calls this the “me” pile. Occasionally when she needs a pick-me-up, Amanda opens one of her “presents”.
While celebrating “Christmas” (underneath a decorated mannequin), the two discover a package to Betty from Matt. It’s a book: “Angel Investors for you Ailing Company”. I think some of you are on the right track about Matt (or his mom) bailing out Meade.
Marc discovers a catalog of engagement rings addressed to Daniel. Hmmmmm.
The last package was for Marc from Cliff, and turns out to be Cliff’s girdle! Heh. Marc then pines for Cliff, while Amanda convinces him that she, not Cliff, is Marc’s soul mate. They vow to never hide the truth from one another.
Amanda then attempts to kiss Marc passionately, and calls him “Daniel”.
These are just so much fun, because you get the feeling there’s only an outline, not a full script, and the two are improvising the majority of it. I hope Mode After Hours becomes a weekly thing again!
