Question of the summer: Who will Betty choose -- Gio or Henry?

Answer: Betty picks herself!

After a trip around the country doing good deeds, Betty shares her photos with Justin and Hilda, while announcing her new plan -- getting a promotion at work, not letting romantic entanglements get in her way and finding a place in Manhattan.

Betty's dad, Ignacio, took a job at Flushing Burgers... under the evil eye of Kimmie, a girl who used to bully Betty in high school. Once Kimmie realizes Ignacio has been bragging about Betty for the past month, she assigns him bathroom duty... indefinitely.
