Amanda ponders about whether she would be next in line to take over at the company, but Sheila, who arrived late and hears this exchange, tells her that two years as a receptionist does not qualify.
When Henry notices the virus in his office, he calls Betty, who is helping the family plan their annual Christmas tree decorations at home, to inform her.
While Daniel and Betty lead the effort to resurrect the issue with an emergency all-nighter work session, Wilhelmina and Marc interrupt to announce their new magazine, SLATER, and recruit many MODE staff.
At the love dungeon, a distressed Amanda tells Christina that she hopes that when she finds her father, maybe she will know what type of talent that she might actually have.
The deleted magazine issue also erased the cover spread featuring Cameron Ashlock, a famous actress and singer who has been making a lot of headlines.
Daniel goes to confront Cameron but cannot bring himself to give her a drink, causing her to lose control and get escorted off the shoot.
Finally, knowing that Christmas is a time for family, Betty buys a pink artificial tree to replace the burned-up one.
As they finally decorate the new tree, Ignacio places the angel on top as a remembrance of his late wife.
"Ugly Betty has changed, because originally it was to be a drama with humour, and in the end it has become an hour-long comedy," notes Dale.
