Happy Birthday, America Ferrera: Our 5 fave 'Ugly Betty' moments

Sure, America Ferrera has gotten engaged, produced and starred in a few films, and guest starred on CBS's "The Good Wife," since "Ugly Betty" was canceled, but we'll always remember her in the role she played for four seasons on the ABC series: The little Mexican-American that could, Betty Suarez.
Fererra turns 27 Monday, April 18 and so we'd like to gift her with our five favorite "Betty" moments:
1.) A very Mode welcome: Betty's first day, meet the iconic poncho!
2.) Betty and Henry's first kiss: He was the one -- until he wasn't.
3.) Marc's beard: Who knew Marc was ever in the closet?
4.) Adios, braces - And the makeover is complete!
5.) Hello lover - Is Daniel-Betty aka "Detty" the next chapter?
Happy Birthday, America! And thanks for the memories!

I always preferred Betty with Henry, but towards the end of the last season I began to warm up to the idea of Detty a bit more. I just wish, however, that after all that buildup there had been some sort of kiss. I loathe when shows end with a "write the ending how you see fit," kind of way.
