Desperate Housewives

Hello, everyone!! Sorry this is very late today. It got crazy and I only got to finish the episode now. It was a pretty decent one, though. Here’s what happened in case you missed it:

The Scavos are finally officially putting an end to the pizza place and are having a sale to get rid of all the appliances and other stuff. Unfortunately for them, people are being vultures and getting the stuff at rock bottom prices. So now the issue is what are they going to do from here. Bree helps by getting him a meeting with her publisher, who is looking for a marketing person. Tom ends up purposefully blowing the whole thing and helps Lynette blow it as well. Seems he’s not wanting to get back into that line of work, but Lynette does. They finally agree she’ll get a job because it’s her ‘turn’. Why they can’t both work, I don’t know.

Meanwhile, another man on Wysteria Lane is being a little childish too. Orson is very tired of people not showing him proper respect now that he’s not a dentist anymore. His solution? He decides to steal from anyone who offends him to punish them for it. Bree catches him stealing her publisher’s recorder and orders him to stop it now. She gives it back, making up an excuse about it getting wrapped up in a napkin at her dinner party. Later, she lectures Orson about it and repeats her order. He doesn’t like that so when she leaves, he makes one of her earrings disappear. Wait’ll Bree discovers that one…

Over at the Solis house, Gabby has been getting used as Bradley’s alibi when he goes to meet Sheila behind his wife’s back. Gabby isn’t liking this and actually goes to the hair salon Sheila works at to confront her about the whole thing. When Bradley finds out, he confronts Gabby and they fight, with Gabby refusing to be his cover anymore. Bradley tells her that Carlos can go looking for another job. I don’t think Carlos is gonna have to worry, though, as Bradley gets killed by Maria (his wife) after telling her about his affair.

Finally, there’s Edie. She and Dave run into a priest at what appears to be a liquor store (nice, huh?) who knows Dave. Dave sends Edie off to pick up something for him and tells the Priest to leave him alone because he’s doesn’t want to talk about the past anymore. Edie is watching from a distance and can hear some of what they say. This leads her to track the guy down and question him. The priest refuses to talk about Dave, but accidently gives her some info: he calls her Mrs. Dash. When Edie replies that the name is Williams, he apologizes and says that he shouldn’t have assumed she took her husband’s name. Edie is now looking up ‘Dave Dash’ online. Can’t wait to see how she reacts when she actually finds some info.

Well, that’s about it for now. Take care and I’ll see y’all in the morning with some of my favorite quotes. I leave you with the promo for next week, thanks to Steveboy12. Enjoy!

Hello, again! I’m here to fill you in on the latest episode of Housewives just in case you missed it. Let’s start with the Solis family. Carlos has closed some big deal at work and wants to celebrate by taking Gabby out to a really fancy restaurant. Gabby decides she wants to wear the dress she had on when he proposed for the occasion. Only one problem- she can’t exactly fit in it anymore. To fix this, she talks Edie into bringing her along for a boot camp exercise class. After just one class, Gabby wants to quit but the instructor (and the rest of the class) won’t let her. They show up on her front lawn at 6 in the morning. When Gabby won’t come out and exercise, Edie is asked to go in and convince her to join them. Surprisingly, it actually works and the instructor seems to look happy to see her come out.

The Solises aren’t the only ones with more money now. Bree’s cookbook is a huge success and she celebrates by buying a new car. Everyone but Lynette seems to be thrilled for her, leaving Bree a bit confused. When she finds out that Lynette and Tom had to sell his car because of the business not doing well, she feel bad and offers Lynette money. The only way she can get Lynette to agree to take it is by investing the money into Scavo’s and becoming a partner. To celebrate, Bree wants to hold a book signing there… something she ends up regretting when Lynette decides to cook some of Bree’s recipes.

So, as you just read, the Scavos are having money troubles and Lynette is not liking having Bree’s success in her face all the time. During the party/book signing to celebrate their new partnership, she and Bree get into a fight over the ingredients that Lynette wants to use in the pizza recipe from Bree’s book. Lynette dismisses Bree’s concerns about the quality of commercial Parmesan. When Bree later throws away the pizzas that weren’t made to her book’s specifications, Lynette gets angry and they get into a fight leading to Lynette accidently denting Bree’s new car. She wants to pay for it, but Bree refuses. Lynette insists and leaves the check… but not before telling her she doesn’t like how success has changed Bree. Bree feels bad and tears up the check after Lynette is gone. Meanwhile, Tom has been told by Lee that Dave was the one who told the cops that Porter was at the club just before the fire started (Bob had gotten access to the reports through his job and filled Lee in). Tom is, of course, furious and confronts Dave. Dave apologizes but Tom doesn’t wanna hear it. This whole thing, after all, has almost ruined their home and business.

Susan, as you might remember from the sneak peeks is desperate to get MJ into private school because the Fairview school system has gone downhill and she thinks MJ isn’t getting a good education. The good news is MJ gets in. The bad news is the tuition has gone up by a lot and Susan can’t afford it. She tries to get the money from Mike, but he says he doesn’t have it. When Susan later sees Katherine wearing a pearl necklace, she’s furious. She thinks Mike is showering Katherine with all this great stuff and ignoring MJ’s school problem. Mike sets her straight (the necklace was fake and he’s working around the clock), making Susan feel bad. She goes back to the school and talks the Head Master to give her a job there so they’ll get a tuition break.

Finally, Edie has started getting curious about Dave’s ex and asks a question, although, I’m not sure she liked his answer much. Basically, she wanted to know what the difference is between being married to her and his ex. He pretty much implies that with the ex it was like a fairytale and with Edie, he has a more realistic view (ie- nothing lasts forever). Let’s see if the questions keep up. Well, that’s about it. Take care and see you next time. I leave you with a video by Steveboy12 giving a few hints about the next new episode. Enjoy!

Good morning. Hope everyone had a great weekend and you’re ready to dish some more about the show! To start the week off, here’s a little summary of the latest episode, in case you missed it…

So, Karen is upset to find out that Eli, the town’s handyman, has decided to retire. She likes him and doesn’t wanna have to deal with a new guy. Eli insists, however, that he’s done fixing things because his doctor has told him he has a bad heart and needs to slow down. The job he’s doing now (fixing a shingle on a roof) is going to be his last job. He has no idea how right that is… has he finishes nailing the shingle in, he passes out and dies of a heart attack. Little Juanita Solis sees him on the roof and screams, leading the housewives to remember the nice things he did for them.

Gabrielle remembers being new to Wysteria Lane and not being happy about it. It’s too quiet and Carlos is never home. So, Eli gets the girls to come to her house for a poker game. Unfortunately for Gabby, she doesn’t leave the best impression. She brags too much and is a little too rude and conceited, leading the others to not want to hang out with her. Eli informs her of this later and tells her that she’d better watch her attitude because no one wants to hang out with her. This actually gets to Gabby and she arrives at Lynette’s with a basket and apologies, actually catching them in the middle of a game.

Bree remembers being teased by Rex about getting a job when she wants a new stove. This was the first time she ever worked on her cookbook. Rex, however, isn’t all that supportive and mocks the idea, leading Bree to throw all her notes away. Eli saves them for her and presents them to her after Rex dies. He tells her he thought she might want them some day and she seems touched that he did that for her.

Lynette remembers being pregnant with Penny and obsessed with getting back to work as quickly as possible. She’s even trying to close a big deal while in labor! It gets so bad after she’s born that Lynette actually accidently leaves Penny in the car because she was so busy hashing out a big deal on the phone. Eli sees this and picks up Penny, bringing her in to Lynette, who is so upset she hangs up on the person and thanks him for what he did.

Edie recalls an ex-husband who left her feeling unattractive because he refuses to sleep with her. Eli accidently overhears the conversation, leading Edie to ask him what he thinks of her so she’ll know if it’s her or not. He assures her that she looks great and Edie feels a lot better. Later, after her husband decides he’s gay and leaves, she cries on Eli’s shoulder a bit and then seduces him.

Susan also cries on his shoulder. She remembers him being there to rant to and cry with after both Karl and Mike leave. Her last memory is talking to him about breaking up with Jackson. He’s about to go work on her roof and she realizes he’s the most consistent guy she’s had in her life and wants to learn more about him, especially since he’s just told her he’s retiring. He agrees to hang out for a bit and chat after fixing her roof and she heads out to the store to get some wine for them to drink while they talk.

Finally, there is a memory of the time that started his habit of helping everyone. He approaches Mary Alice, looking for work after having just arrived in Wysteria Lane. Seeing he’s in need, she asks him if he can repair a vase she broke and offers to hand out his card to people. A couple years later, he walks in with a part for her and finds her reading the infamous note. She tells him she’s fine and asks if he can come back another day. He agrees and turns around to leave, but Mary Alice stops him and says she wants him to have the vase he fixed for her. He thanks her and they share a moment before he leaves. Later, he drives by to see the ambulance and cops cars and realizes why she gave him the vase. He’s so shaken by it that he promised himself he’s do everything he could to help others.

And there you have it: The 100th Episode. That’s about it for now… take care and I’ll see ya next time! I leave you with a clip from the episode posted by cooldhfan. Enjoy!

Another episode down, and I’m here to fill you in on all the action again in case you missed it. There was a lot going on this time that seems like it’s going to have some consequences for awhile yet. Let’s start with Gabby.

The Solis family is trying to adjust to their new lives now that Carlos is working. The girls are going crazy, refusing to listen to Gabby at all and at one point, Juanita actually tells Gabby they love Carlos more. Gabby’s so desperate to get them to listen (Carlos refuses to help, since Gabby pretty much forced him into the job), she actually gets the lawn guy to yell at the girls. Carlos isn’t too happy, but Gabby tells him what Juanita said and reminds him that he refused to help, leading Carlos to give in and lay down the law with them about not listening to Gabby. Kind of sounds like Lynette and Tom in the early days of the show, huh?

Speaking of them… Lynette gets a visitor that leads her to her son. She hurries over to the home to see her mom and Porter, but Porter isn’t there. They found out Lynette was tipped off, so Porter ran and mom refuses to say where he is because she’s furious with Lynette for putting her in the home. Lynette, not knowing what else to do, pretends to get in an accident so that they’ll both come running to see how she is. It works with mixed results. Porter gets over being angry fast and decides to come home while her mom is furious. Lynette visits her later and they fight it out, finally calling a truce.

Bree’s needing to work out a truce, too, after making some comments about Orson in front of Alex. Alex has some old family issues he’s reminded of and tells Bree she shouldn’t make fun of Orson like that in front of him. Bree, of course, gets offended and after another argument, Alex tells her she can keep the house she bought. He doesn’t want it. Later on, Bree goes to him to apologize, admitting she’s changed since becoming successful with her business and tells him she needs someone like him around who’ll keep her in line. He agrees to stay.

Susan is Susan- what more can I say about that one? As usual, her story’s all about relationship issues. This time, she’s obsessing because Edie told her she’s weak and can’t deal with not having a man in her life. Edie partly tells her that because she’s mad that the others forgot about her kicking Dave out the second Susan announced she was going to move in with Jackson. Still, Susan ends up realizing there might be some truth there and tells Jackson she can’t move. Let’s see if this actually leads to any change or growth for her character finally… by the way- Edie ends up taking Dave back, realizing she might have been too harsh in kicking him out.

As for the others…. Mike offers Dave a place to stay while things get settled and gets more serious with Katherine. He tells her he doesn’t want her to leave after she mentions maybe leaving Wysteria Lane and the charges against Porter get dropped. Well, that’s about it for now. Take care and see you next time. I’ll leave you with the ending and next week’s promo, thanks to mattndjessproduction:

Good morning, everyone! I hope you all got a chance to catch the new episode last night. I sure did and loved it! In case you missed it, here’s a little recap of what went down.

The Hodges/Van de Kamps met Andrew’s future mother-in-law and it did not go so well. She’s determined to get the kids to move to where she is, while Bree is just as determined to get them to stay. So much so, in fact, she decides to buy a house Edie is selling to keep them on Wysteria Lane, much to her adversaries annoyance. Should be interesting to see what counter moves are coming. And you know one’s coming….

The Solises are at a crossroads now that Carlos has his sight back. Carlos doesn’t want to keep working as a massage therapist. He’s rather work with an organization for the blind. The same one that helped him, in fact. Gabby, meanwhile, thinks that he should take the cushy six-figure offer an ex-co-worker with his own company offered. This leads to a bit of an argument between them (Carlos hates the guy and thinks of the work as soul crushing, while Gabby thinks the family has sacrificed enough and it’s time for him to bring in real money again.) Carlos finally relents and agrees to take the job. I can’t wait to see the trouble this is going to cause.

Over at the Scavo house, Porter’s lawyer has found out that Porter left and Preston has been taking his place. He threatens to go to the DA with the information unless they can get Porter back before the lawyer’s next meeting with him. Lynette tries to get Preston to spill the details, but he refuses. He says that they’re more worried about being able to serve pizza than Porter’s safety. Lynette takes Preston with her to a club where Mr. Shilling hangs out and informs him that she is going to run the man over to protect Porter to prove how much she does care about them and orders him to get out so she can do what she has to do. Porter gets the point and refuses to leave, telling her he will try and get Porter to come back. They talk to Porter over the phone and almost convince him to return. That is, until Lynette’s mom comes into the scene and makes Porter hang up, telling him not to trust her.

Over at Edie’s, she catches Dave talking to himself a couple nights after getting into a fight over his appearance. She can tell something’s wrong, but won’t say what. The talking to himself incident finally pushes her to demand to know the truth. Dave doesn’t give her the whole story, but admits that he was married and widowed once before. Edie is furious he kept that information from her and tells him to leave immediately. He packs his things and heads off to a hotel or something just in time to see Karen returning home from an ill-fated trip to Dave’s doctor’s office. (By the way… apparently, the people who work with him are idiots. The receptionist says he was due back over a week ago and has still not returned, but they haven’t seemed to report this fact to anyone.)

Finally, with Jackson out of town, Susan goes out with Lee and ends up getting drunk. She wakes up beside him in bed and freaks out, thinking they slept together. He assures her that nothing happened and Susan is relieved, since Jackson called and asked her to move in with him. Without even thinking of MJ (and Mike’s access to him, since Jackson’s living out of town right now), Susan decides she should do it. To his credit, Lee, who’s been filled in on the situation, tells her she shouldn’t do it unless she can say she loves him. This is something she wasn’t able to do. We’ll see how that all turns out.
Well, that’s all for now. I will leave you with the preview for next week, courtesy of mattndjessproduction. Stay tuned for my thoughts on the promo, favorite quotes, actors and more over the next few days. Take care!

Well, another week, another new episode! A lot happened this time so let’s get started shall we? I’m gonna start with the Hodges. Bree and Orson are finishing up a meeting with the doctor who performed Orson’s surgery when we first see them. The doctor leaves the room and Bree decides to leave him a thank-you card. While leaving it on his desk, she happens to see a picture of the good doctor with Andrew. She confronts Andrew about it, who tells her he didn’t think she’d want to know anything about his love life. Bree, determined to prove she’s ok with Andrew’s lifestyle, invites the doctor to dinner. She also invites Bob and Lee to join them, leading to an interesting discovery. Apparently, Andrew’s fiancé was once in an adult movie. Bree tells Andrew about it and learns Alex already filled him in on that little detail. Andrew then lets Bree know how much he cares about Alex and Bree lets the whole thing go.

The Scavos aren’t having things as easy. Following Dave’s lie to the cops, Porter’s arrested for the fire and 7 counts of manslaughter. Lynette and Tom hire a lawyer for him and Porter insists he had nothing to do with the fire. He says he was at Edie’s house stealing a gun to scare Anne’s husband. Since no one actually saw this, they can’t use it as an alibi and Lynette cleans the gun carefully before sneaking it back into Edie’s drawer. Meanwhile, it turns out Lynette pretty much used up their savings and all on paying Anne off and has to use the restaurant to get Porter bailed out. This comes back to bite her (as usual) when Porter runs off and gets Preston to pretend to be him for the arraignment hearing. Lynette figures out the switch, but won’t tell the judge because they’ll lose the business if it’s discovered Porter left. So, why did he run? Anne’s husband showed up at a park Porter was at and threatened that he’d ‘disappear’ one day.

While all this is going on, Susan is having some kid troubles of a less serious type. MJ isn’t happy with Mike dating Katherine. He sees her as an obstacle to mommy and daddy getting back together. Especially since Susan is clearly trying to hide her unhappiness with the new couple. She’s forced to deal with the fact she’d given MJ the wrong impression a long time ago after MJ admits that’s why he threw a sundae at Katherine and dropped a bowling ball on her foot. This leads to a kinda weird moment where Susan tells Mike they never really said they’d never get back together again and Mike doesn’t argue with her. Funny, I thought Mike saying he’s making things better while signing the divorce papers (over Susan’s objections I might add) kinda said that. Don’t you agree?

One of the better stories this week was Gabby and Carlos. When we first see them, Carlos can’t see much, but he’s making out shapes and light. Gabby’s happy about all this, but panics after she finds out the baseball she sold was a family thing passed down from his grandfather to his father. She tries to blow it all off, but Carlos gets his sight back enough to realize that’s not the autographed baseball. He orders Gabby to get it back and she goes crawling back to the creepy guy she sold it to and dances for him so he’ll return it. When she gets home, Carlos’ mood has totally changed. He’s had a chance to walk around the house and see just how much stuff of her own stuff Gabby has had to sacrifice to keep the family going the past few years. He later sells the baseball again to buy her a new dress and promises he’s going to get her other nice things.

And now… we come to Dave. I was kinda hoping the plot wouldn’t come to this. I’m still hoping there may yet be a twist thrown out at us. For now, though? It looks like Dave really is after Mike for the accident that claimed the mother and child. He spends most of the episode hallucinating seeing them and trying to push them away. The hallucinations seem to get set off by Porter being arrested and Edie making a comment about what Lynette must be going through. Towards the end of the episode, we see him talking to the woman and child, promising he’s going to see them soon and Mike is going to suffer for what he did. By the end of his speech, the camera angle changes a bit and we see it’s actually the gravestones he’s talking to. And there you have it: Episode 5×10. So what did you all think? Be sure to post your comments and let me know! Take care and see you next time.

Good morning, everyone. How about that episode last night? Now that is what I’m talking about. In case you missed it, don’t worry! I’m about to give you a run down. Let’s start off with Susan and work our way up to some of the better stuff, shall we?

Susan visits Mike in the hospital and suddenly realizes that he’s dating someone, but she doesn’t know who. She insists Mike has to tell her, but he refuses, saying that “she” wants to break the news. Now that Susan knows it’s a friend of hers, she spends most of the episode obsessing over who. The guessing game ends after Susan samples some cookies at Katherine’s house and realizes they’re the same exact ones she had in Mike’s hospital room. She then spends the rest of the episode upset with Katherine (and Bree, too, after she finds out Bree already knew). Bree tells her off and makes Susan realize she’s being unfair. Susan calls Katherine to apologize, but you can still see she’s not happy.

Lynette, meanwhile, is scared Porter might have started the fire. He had threatened Mr. Shilling right in front of her just before it started. Still, she refuses to admit as much to the police. She thinks they need to protect Porter no matter what. Tom doesn’t quite agree with that. Lynette later has a talk with Porter and asks him to come clean if he had anything to do with it. If he did, and is honest, she says they will help him. If he lies and she finds out about it, then they won’t be able to help him at all. He swears he had nothing to do with it and even comes clean to Lynette about having just called Anne, who won’t return his calls. He asks if Lynette has any idea where she is. Lynette then lies to Porter and says no, even though she just got back from taking Anne to the bus station. She’d given Anne some money and ordered her to leave or Lynette will press statutory rape charges. Anne agrees and admits to her own lie: there is no baby and never was.

Gabrielle is thrilled when she hears that an operation can be done to restore Carlos’ site. That is… until she remembers what she looks like now. She doesn’t want him to be disappointed and starts on a diet and exercise plan immediately. Her insecurities get even worse when she finds out the surgery will be in only a few days. She tries to stall, but Carlos won’t have that. Gabby eventually admits her fears to Carlos and he puts her mind at ease, telling her a story about when he first knew he wanted to be with her forever and tells her it had nothing to do with her looks.

Now, we have Bree. She’s discovered Orson is snoring very badly now after he suffered an injury in the fire. A simple procedure can fix it, but Orson doesn’t want to go along with it out of fear of surgery. In order to avoid it, he decides to put some sleeping medicine in Bree’s tea before bed. He stops her from drinking it, though, after finding out she took some sleeping pills. One problem- genius didn’t throw out the tea. Instead, he left it on the bedside table and Bree drinks it the next morning, getting her all nice and drugged up in time for her big cooking demonstration at the mall. She, naturally, completely humiliates herself and Orson is forced to go through with the surgery.

Last, but definitely not least, is Dave. He gets questioned by the cops at the hospital, but manages to play it pretty cool. Once he gets home and starts watching the news reports, you can see he’s clearly upset about all the innocent people that died in the fire. He even appears upset when he finds out Porter is considered a suspect. Still… he’s got an objective and he can’t worry about his conscience right now. He goes to the police and tells them he saw Porter in the back where the fire started.

There you have it. “Me and My Town”. So what did y’all think? Was it a good one? Are you disappointed? Share your thoughts in the comments below. Take care and I’ll see ya next time.

Good morning, everyone! Well, that was an… interesting episode last night. Stay tuned tomorrow for my take on things. For now, here’s a recap for anyone who missed it.

Pretty much everything in this episode carried over into the club gig, but it all began at the Housewives own homes. I’ll start with Bree. She’s doing a big time interview with a reporter who apparently is always out for blood. Bree tries desperately (heh) to keep up a perfect, proper image during the interview, but things fall apart after Orson’s parole officer leaves a message on the machine for all to hear. They meet up again at the club later and the two ladies hash it out, with Bree explaining that her cookbook isn’t about showing off how superior she is. It’s about showing she’s just as crazed at times as any other housewife. And just like all the others out there, she’s looking to get something right. Even if that something is just a recipe.

Carlos, meanwhile, has been let off the hook by “Grandma Screw Loose”. Gabby comes home to find her there and discover that she went to the people in charge at the club to explain those accusations she made were just a misunderstanding. Gabby’s grateful for that and all, but is definitely not ready to play nice. Her mind changes fast when she finds out they’ve been made the sole heirs to her estate. Later on, the two are sitting at the club waiting for the guys to play when Grandma Nut Job announces she’s gotten the girls into a school about an hour away. Gabby thanks her for the effort but says she wants the girls to stay right where they are. They like it there and it’s close to her in case she’s needed. Ole Grandma begs to differ, saying her choice is a better school and she must insist on the change. Gabby doesn’t take too well to that, telling the lady that she has no right to insist on anything for the girls. Decisions like this go to Gabby and Carlos alone. Grandma threatens to cut her out of the will and Gabby tells her to go right ahead.

Susan is freaking out because Julie’s arrived with her new man… a much older man. Like, probably older than Susan. Jackson tells Susan to stay out of it because it’s really not her business to tell Julie who to see (or not see) but as usual, Susan doesn’t listen. Why? Because she knows the guy is about to propose to Julie. Susan is so determined to stop it, she basically forces the guy to step aside so she can dance with Julie. The proposal comes out anyway and Julie isn’t having it. She’s not into marriage after seeing her mom go through two divorces. She doesn’t think there’s a point. Susan has a talk with her about her commitment issues and they go back inside the club to watch the guys play.

Finally, there’s Lynette. Preston has revealed that Anne’s pregnant and Lynette goes to confront her. Unfortunately, her husband shows up during the conversation and overhears Anne say she’s glad to be pregnant with Porter’s baby. He asks Lynette to leave them alone, apologizing for any trouble Anne has caused her and her family. Anne begs Lynette silently not to leave, but she walks out the door anyway. Before she can get in the car, something tells her to go back and she walks in just in time to see Anne getting beaten. She defends Anne, warning him not to try and hit her too because “I hit back”. He walks out, angry and Lynette gets Anne to the hospital. When Porter finds out, he gets mad, going down to the club to confront Anne’s husband (who also owns the place). Porter throws a punch at him, which starts a fight Lynette breaks up (she’s been busy today…). Porter storms off and ends up returning with a gun… he puts the gun away and starts to walk off once he gets back to the club and sees it in flames. The man sees Porter and accuses him of starting the fire, which leads to yet another argument.

Now, let’s move on to the club and Dave’s part in things. His shrink arrives on Wysteria Lane, where he receives an invite to the battle of the bands from none other than Edie. He doesn’t know who she is, but he’s definitely interested when he sees Dave’s picture on the flyer. Once he gets to the club, he confronts Dave about returning to Wysteria Lane, saying it’s unhealthy. Dave argues that it was all Edie’s idea and he’s fine. Not only that, Dave claims Edie knows everything about his past. The doctor actually appears to accept to an extent, allowing him to go ahead and play that night. He quickly rethinks that when he looks at the band roster and sees a certain name (although they don’t reveal what one). Now the doctor is freaked out and insists on speaking to “him” immediately to verify Dave’s claim that everything is ok between them. Sadly for the doctor, he never gets the chance. Dave leads him into a storage area and strangles the doctor, setting him on fire before returning to play the band’s set. Partway through their cover song, the fire spreads into the club, forcing everyone to evacuate. Mike runs back in to find Jackson, who had gone to the bathroom. Before Mike can get there, Jackson has already escaped through a window and Mike passes out from the smoke. Dave finds out Mike is still in there and rushes in to save him, later saying he’s not done with Mike yet. Gabby helps Grandma Screw Loose out and it appears all the main (and recurring) people have escaped the club in one piece.

So, there you have it- Episode 8, “City on Fire”. What did you think? Comment and let me know!! Take care and see ya tomorrow!

Good morning, everyone. Let’s get to talking about the new episode, huh? I’ll start where Mary Alice did- with the Scavos. The action picks up later on the same night with Lynette waiting for Tom to get home. When he does, they have one of those typical “misunderstanding” conversations where neither knows what on earth the other is really talking about. Until Tom mentions Porter, that is. Then Lynette realizes exactly what’s going on. At the same time, Porter gets home and Lynette greets him with a “you’re sleeping with your best friends mother?!” Now, everyone is on the same page and they’re lecturing Porter about ending the whole thing with a phone call. Porter refuses and begs Lynette not to call as she reaches for the phone. He says Anne’s husband is really crazy and just might kill her if he finds out. He claims he won’t see her anymore, but he doesn’t want them to get in the middle of it. He threatens to leave if they do and Anne gets hurt, so Tom says they won’t. Lynette has a hard time keeping quiet…. especially when she attends a PTA meeting where Anne is begging for chaperones for Junior prom since you don’t know what kids will be up to if you’re not watching. This makes Lynette get up and head for the bathroom. Anne walks in a little bit later and makes small talk with Lynette, having no idea she’s been busted. Finally, Lynette can’t take it and pushes her, telling Anne she knows everything. Anne must not be too bright, because she tells Lynette she loves Porter, which causes Lynette to slap her across the face… and it looked like a real painful one, too. Lynette tells her to stay away from her kid or else. Apparently, she doesn’t listen well either, because she meets Porter at a park later and tells him she’s pregnant. Porter’s apparently planning to run off with her and with what looks like a good chunk of cash. Anyone check the register or safe at Scavo’s lately?

Since Porter and Anne are pulling a John and Gabby, I figure why not continue with the Solises? Gabby is living it up at new client’s house and thinks it’s a great setup. Carlos disagrees, thinking that it’s best if they put more professional distance between them. Gabby laughs it off and tells Virginia they’d be happy to stay the whole weekend. And she is… until Virginia starts getting a little weird. She barges in while the Solises are watching a movie and actually climbs into bed with them despite the fact that Gabby had told her they were having a family movie night. Later on, she catches the kids painting one of Virginia’s walls and tries to stop them only to find out Virginia told them to because it will be their room for when the family spends the weekends here. Gabby tells Virginia they have plans next weekend, but they doesn’t seem to bother Virginia. She says she’ll send a car for the kids and gets them to call her grandma. Gabby practically broke speed records packing to get out of there. It all comes to a head the next day at the Solises birthday party when Virginia shows up wanting to take the birthday girl shopping for a doll. Gabby ends up offending Virginia who goes home and calls the club, claiming Carlos touched her inappropriately.

Now, we have the Hodges. Bree is thrilled with the new review she got and how well she and Orson are working together. She reads it to Orson, who congratulates her and starts getting kinda frisky. Bree tries to stop things at first, but gives in pretty fast. Later on, Andrew comes to them saying the kid they just fired for stealing has managed to get his hands on the security tape from the kitchen and has caught two people really going at it. He wants 2,000 to keep it quiet. Bree, embarrassed and angry, sends Andrew after him to get it back. Turns out Bree didn’t have to worry much. The camera was really turned off. The thing is, Kathryn and Mike didn’t and it’s really them on the tape. Bree goes to her with it and warns her to be very careful because of Susan, who is busy not sleeping with Jackson.

Apparently, Susan thinks it best if they don’t do anything until the fourth date so they can spend more time talking and getting to know each other. Susan is touched when she finds out Jackson paints and has now made a portrait of her that shows how well he really knows her. And that got resolved fast. Wake me up when something more interesting happens between them. Or he gets a scene with Mike. Those are always good…

And now…. we get to the big stuff. Karen and Roberta are hot on the trail of Dave’s past and Roberta has found some real good dirt. Apparently, the guy who has been calling Dave is a specialist in treating the criminally insane. They try to call him to get more info but screw it all up and hang up fast. The psychiatrist, however, now knowing Dave is in Fairview, books a flight there. Now this should be good…

Good morning, everyone! I hope your Monday’s going alright. Just in case, I have the perfect distraction for you- a recap of the new episode! It’s called “There’s Always a Woman”.

Let’s start with the Solises. Carlos, as you all remember, has been working at a local club as a massage therapist. He’s got a new patient now… one who ends up enjoying his massages a little too much, if you know what I mean. Carlos is embarrassed so he doesn’t tell Gabby about it, which is why she can’t understand why Carlos is turning down the chance to be her private masseuse for a lot of money. Gabby eventually finds out why this lady likes his massages so much and confronts the lady. The woman claims it only happened once and she really only wants Carlos to come along because he’s helped her back pain so much and she’s very lonely. Gabby gives in completely on the deal when the woman invites Gabby to travel with them as her personal shopper.

In other jealousy plots, Lynette is wondering what on earth Tom is up to when she catches him and a woman standing outside a building talking. She parks and walks over to introduce herself, finding out she’s a real estate agent who got Tom and his band a rehearsal space. This makes Lynette feel much better… until she finds out this lady’s shown up at the rehearsal space a few times. She drives over and catches Tom hanging out there and they get into a bit of a fight over it. Tom apologizes and they head home, with Tom deciding to leave again a little later to make sure he locked the door to Scavo’s. Lynette, still suspicious, follows him and sees Tom has gone back to the rehearsal space… and so has Ms. Real Estate Agent. She’s furious and heads home to pack a suitcase. What she doesn’t know is, Tom went back there cause he had a feeling Porter was doing something he shouldn’t there… and he was right. Porter is pulling a John and having an affair with Anne.

Susan, on the other hand, actually has a reason to be a little jealous. Jackson broke up with her over the moving-in issue last time and she’s really missing him. She thinks she screwed up by not saying yes to the idea, so she decides to go over to his place and talk things out. Unfortunately for her, she walks in to find another woman in his shower. They’re arguing when Jackson walks in. Susan tells him off and leaves, upset. Later on, he comes by and they fight it out, finally deciding to start over.

Bree doesn’t have any jealousy issues, but she is in danger of losing a friend. Katherine’s thinking of moving to be with her daughter and son-in-law, who has expecting a baby. She figures she has nothing here other than their catering gigs and she thinks it’s time to hang it all up and be a grandma. Especially with Orson taking a more active role in the business. Bree doesn’t want her to leave and sets her up on a date with a new client Orson brought in. The date goes great until Bree and Katherine find out the guy was in prison with Orson. Apparently the guy was selling organs on the black market. The only bright spot? He was taking em from people who had died anyway. Only on Wysteria Lane…

Finally, we have Karen, whose sister is now in the picture and what a pair they are. They’re like carbon copies of each other. Karen’s called her to ask if she can stay with her for a bit so Dave thinks she’s completely out of the picture. Her sister agrees to that and digging up some dirt on Dave thanks to her job at a cell phone company. Can’t wait to see what she’s found out… her part in this episode ended with her handing an envelope to Karen and basically saying that Karen is right to be suspicious of him.

Well, that’s all for now. Take care and I’ll see y’all next time.

Good morning, everyone!! I’m back and ready to fill you in on the latest episode of Housewives, in case you missed it. This one was kinda different in that it spent a lot of time playing with time. You’ll see what I mean. Let’s start at the beginning and work our way through the families shall we? I’ll start with a clip of the opening narration and the Solis family this time.

Gabrielle if freaking out because she’s late and thinks she might be pregnant again because she’s like clockwork usually. (Seriously… is any woman on TV not like clockwork with her time of the month? Must be nice to be so predictable there….) Her worries cause her to remember the first two times she was in this situation. She actually slapped her doctor when she was told she was pregnant. The second time, the doctor stayed back from her when giving her the news, after begging her not to hit him (this, by the way, leads to an awesome look from Gabby). Later on, she and Carlos are on their way to a party for Mrs. McClusky’s birthday when Gabby decides to tell him her fears. He tries to tell her what a good thing that is, like he did the last two times. This time, Gabby’s mad and wants to sue the doctor who obviously messed up Carlos’ vasectomy. Unable to talk her down, he admits he never had one. Now, Gabby’s furious with him. They eventually talk it out and Gabby agrees to not make him get one for real, seeing how much it means to him to try for a son one day. We also learn that Carlos became a massage therapist shortly after Gabby got pregnant with Juanita to support his new family. He figured that was a perfect job because it relies mostly on touch.

Over at the Meyer house (where the party is being held), Susan is getting ready when Jackson arrives a little bit late. He’s hurrying to get changed when he tells her he’d like to move in. After all, he spends most of his time there anyway. Susan freaks and flashes back to the day she and Mike got divorced. After a year of separation, Susan got cold feet and begged Mike not to sign the papers. She was convinced they could work through the accident because they’d been so good together before that. (Ok… when was that? I can’t remember a totally drama-free time between them.) Mike, however, doesn’t think it’s a good idea and signs the papers and then walks right out of the room. Susan is devastated and decides to hire someone (Jackson) to paint her house because she “needs a change”. They verbally spare a little bit before ending up in bed together. Jackson tells her he doesn’t want anything serious and Susan tells him she’s just fine with that.

Now, we arrive at the Scavo house where we find out exactly why Tom has been acting the way he has this season. In a flashback, it’s revealed he almost died while doing some electrical work in the pizza place. In the hospital, Tom tells Lynette he needs more in life and she agrees to go along with it. Little does she know that will mean Tom agreeing to sell the pizza place so he can buy a camper and have the family travel for a year. Lynette flips and refuses to go along with it. Tom challenges her, telling her she’s always “a buzzkill” and wondering why she can’t be more supportive. She responds by offering to get him a towel, then throwing a drink in his face. Later on, they talk a bit and Tom explains himself a bit more. Lynette kinda gets it (while also reminding him he’s not the only one around here who faced death…), but argues that they already turned their lives upside down to get the pizza place going and the family can’t keep making huge changes like this every time Tom gets bored. Tom isn’t too pleased with that and refuses to come inside with her, preferring to stand and brood on the porch for awhile.

Now, we get to the Hodge home. Bree tells Orson it isn’t fair to Katherine to basically toss her aside when she’s put so much work into the business and she never should’ve agreed to let Orson join up without Katherine being ok with it. He is having none of that and demands a divorce when Bree won’t give in. He wants to know why on earth Bree is more worried about what Katherine thinks then him. We get a flashback to answer that! Apparently, right before Orson went to jail, Bree held a small get-together where she snuck a little bit of champagne. Once Orson was gone and Danielle took Benjamin back, she started abusing alcohol again, causing Katherine to get tough with her. She came in and demanded Bree get up and help with an event, telling her to fill her void “with work and accomplishments” instead of falling back into these habits. She also insists on moving in with Bree for awhile to make sure Bree stays on the straight and narrow until Orson gets back. (Have I mentioned I like Katherine?)

So that leaves us with the Williams family. Dave suggests throwing a surprise party for Karen for her 70th birthday. Edie goes along with the idea, but they decide to have it at Susan’s house. The plan is for Edie to take Karen out for the “traditional birthday drink” while everything is set up. When they get back, Edie is going to drop Karen off at her house and then get her to come over to Susan’s. Dave’s flashback during the party doesn’t go back very far, but it does reveal a bit. The party idea came to him after he caught Karen going through their mailbox. She claims that mail for Edie was left at her house by mistake, so she was just dropping it off and making sure none of hers was left at their house by mistake. Dave doesn’t buy it, so he gets the party ball rolling. While everyone’s busy with that, he breaks into Karen’s house and moves a few things around downstairs for her to find when she returns home later. Karen notices the things that were disturbed and realizes who is responsible. So, when she shows up at Susan’s house in the present time, there’s a bat in her hand. One she uses to attack Dave with, ranting about how he’s messing with her and she’s got going to take it. Everyone is confused and thinks Karen’s gone nuts, so they call an ambulance, which takes her away. Dave climbs in the ambulance with her, admitting to a now drugged Karen that he did do what she accused him of and he’s sorry it had to turn out like that, since she’s not his target (a man is). He then asks her to take care of herself, seeming, for the first time, genuinely concerned about a person and not just putting on a show.

So there you have it: “Mirror, Mirror”. It was a great episode and I definitely recommend catching the rerun if you missed it (or keep an eye on DVD releases). I’ll leave you know with the ending narration. Enjoy and see you next time!

Hey, everyone! I told you I was going to recap and I am a woman of my word (even if it is a little bit later). Since she and Mike were the teaser scene, let’s start with the Mayer/Delfino family shall we? It starts with Susan and Mike attending a meet the parents night at MJ’s school. The teacher (the same lady who taught the Scavo brats… nice continuity!) has had each of the kids draw a picture of their families for the occasion as usual. Susan and Mike are disturbed to find out the MJ has drawn him, Susan and Jackson, which Mike very small and off to the side because he’s “always so far away”. Ouch! This leads Mike to get all insecure about his place in MJ’s life and causes him to buy his son a bike earlier than he and Susan had planned. As soon as he gets time, he wants to teach MJ to ride it. Unfortunately for him, and unknown to Susan, Jackson teaches MJ after the kid begs him over and over. Susan is upset to find this out and tells MJ to fall on purpose to Mike will think he’s getting to teach him after all. MJ finally relents to her pleas and actually hurts himself, leading Susan to confess what happened and to lecture Mike because he shouldn’t have expected a 5-year-old to sit back and wait after being given a bike. Mike ends up moving back to Wysteria Lane to be closer to MJ. I’ll tell you how that happened later. By the way… I’d love to know what the Scavo kids drawings looked like back in the day. What do you all think those pictures looked like?

Next, I’ll take you to the Solis house, where Gabby and Carlos are having a hard time getting “alone time” together. Gabby decides to set Juanita up a play date once a week so they can get a couple of hours alone. Unfortunately for them, Juanita is dropped off early one day and walks in on their “alone time”, forcing the Solises to explain the facts of life to her. Juanita then goes around telling every kid she comes across everything she’s learned, making the other parents not want her around. So, their basically right back where they started.

Bree is having some home issues, too. Orson has become a bit bitter about everything he lost and Bree’s success is making it worse for him. He practically begs for a place in her company, but Katherine vetos the idea since she’s already been made pretty insignificant as it is. When Bree tells him she can’t let him join the business he decides to freeze her out and stay in the guest room. He also skips out on seeing her win the Business Woman of the Year award because of it. That becomes the final straw for her and she gives in to Orson’s demand for a job. He, of course, then goes back to staying in their bedroom at night. I get his issues, but wow…. he’s turning into a bit of a jerk this year. Anyway…

Let’s move along, shall we? Orson isn’t the only one bothered by the success of Bree. Lynette’s feeling pretty inferior herself. Especially after she finds out the receptionist from her old company is now running his own ad business (and Bree’s book campaign). She’s convinced she can do better and comes up with a whole big presentation for Bree, which Bree rejects. This leads to Lynette having a few too many at the awards ceremony for Bree and causing a scene. She actually takes responsibility and apologizes for what she did, promising Bree that she’ll be on her side no matter what. That’s more than I can say for Bree’s husband, who has become increasingly controlling and manipulative this year. Which leads me to the Williams home…

Dave is determined to get Mike in the band, even though Mike has said he can’t do it because he lives too far away. Edie, meanwhile, wants to buy a house on the Lane as an investment property and rent it out. Dave is flat-out against it and even yells at Edie to forget about it. He apologizes and goes upstairs to take some pills. Later on, he tells Edie to go ahead and buy that house and rent it out to Mike so he’ll be closer to the Lane and more likely to join the band. He doesn’t tell Edie that, though. She just thinks he wants to do a good deed. One, by the way, he won’t let Edie tell anyone their doing. Mike just thinks Edie knows the person renting it. He doesn’t realize Edie and Dave are now his landlords. He seems pretty obsessed with getting everyone together, doesn’t he? And I thought Lynette, Bree and Gabby were good at getting what they want out of people. I think Dave is putting them to shame lately.

Well, that’s about it for now. Take care and enjoy this promo for next week!

Good evening, everyone!! I promised I’d give y’all a recap of last night’s episode, so here it is. Enjoy!

Let’s start with the Hodge family. Bree and Orson are having what I assume is their first-ever visit with Benjamin since Danielle came and took him back. Orson begs Bree not to criticize or do anything to annoy her, but this is Bree. She quickly makes a comment about Danielle’s “ethnic” clothes and later freaks out when she discovers Danielle’s made him a vegetarian. Danielle is also homeschooling, which leads to a great line I’ll quote in another post. Check the video below to see part of the scene.

Later on, Bree decides to take matters into her own hands and gives Benjamin a hotdog while their at the park. This causes him to get sick during a dinner gathering and Danielle confronts Bree about giving him the meat. She wants to leave early, and Orson is furious with Bree over it since he blames her for losing Benjamin to start with. Bree argues that there was nothing she could do, since Danielle’s his biological mother.

Over at the Mayer house, Susan is trying to protect MJ from a bully, but MJ won’t tell him who the bully is. He wants to talk to Mike about the problem instead, so she invites him over. Mike and Jackson both offer to teach MJ how to fight until they find out it’s Juanita Solis who is bullying him. Susan gets angry at them over it because she think it’s sexist to not teach him how to defend himself against her, especially since she’s bigger than him. The bullying ends up leading to that preview clip I showed y’all where Susan and Gabby fight. (WARNING- That post I linked contains a big spoiler…)

The Scavos are also having a little war. Tom and Dave want to start a band and Lynette disagrees. She thinks it will take too much time away from the family and their business. When Tom refuses to give it up, Lynette actually resorts to leaving the bass on the ground where Tom can run over it and frames Penny for the act. This is one of those times where I think Lynette’s gone way too far and I hope it comes back to bite her… maybe it already has.

Why? Because now Dave Williams has an extra interest in the Scavo family. He brings by a new Bass for Tom. When Lynette tries to decline it, he pulls all kinds of manipulative psycho babble on her about Tom and how he just might be tempted to go off have a full blown crisis, complete with a young chick, if he doesn’t have an outlet like the band. Lynette accepts the Bass, but I think she may be wondering if there’s something odd about Dave now. Lord knows Mrs. McClusky does. She even manages to get Edie asking questions now, after pointing out how weird it is that Edie doesn’t know where he grew up or went to school. She pushes the issue too hard and Dave gives her a bunch of bull about never going to college and being ashamed of that so she’ll back off. Edie apologizes and blames Karen for all the questions. Yes, that sound you hear is the ominous music starting. Dave responds to this info by telling her he thinks Karen is going senile and paranoid like his aunt did. Let’s home Karen has her little kitty hidden away well and a good alarm system…

Finally…. we have the Solis family. This week, their main story is they have to sell Gabby’s fancy wheels. To make it even worse for Gabby’s ego, it’s being sold to a rich couple so the couple’s nanny can use it. To replace the car, Gabby has to turn to Andrew, who is selling his. She tries to haggle with him but he refuses to lower the price for her, or even fix it when it turns out to have a radiator issue he never told her about… so much for Andrew growing as a person the past few years. Gabby gets her revenge, though, but threatening to ram his new car if he doesn’t give her the money to make the repairs. He, of course, gives in.

Well, that’s it for this episode. Check back tomorrow for some cool news about James Denton. Later!

Hey guys! Well… another week, another episode down. And what an episode it was! Lots of creepy moments and humiliation to spread around! Let’s start with the Scavos. Lynette spends most of the episode chatting with Porter online posing as a teenage girl to try and get some info about his life and who he’s associating with. What she didn’t expect was for him to develop a crush on her alter ego. She ends up getting busted when she writes a “dear john” e-mail and signs it “mom”. Hey, I never said Lynette was always the smartest wife on the block. I wonder why she spends so much time on these schemes of hers when they backfire so often. Tom was the voice of reason through the whole thing, telling Lynette she’s crazy for posing as a teenager and basically spying on the kid.

Gabby finds herself in an embarrassing position when she walks in on Carlos giving a massage session to an old man.

Over at the Solis house, their social decline just went into free fall. Gabby and Carlos have been dis-invited to a party Gabby says is the basis for every event of the social season. If they don’t show up there, other people won’t invite them to parties later. The reason for the dis-invite? Carlos is now working as a massage therapist at the country club and Bree (who is catering) tells her the host is uncomfortable having “the help” at the party. Gabby gets Carlos to crash the party with her anyway and makes nice with some people. Carlos ends up getting dragged out of the party and tells Gabby they’re much better off now. He was miserable before and now they have a family and all.

Susan and MJ

Susan has a few issues of her own. Despite trying to keep both Mike and MJ away from her new guy, several embarrassing encounters force her to deal with it and bring everyone together. Especially when Mike threatens to take her to court if he doesn’t get to meet Jackson since he’ll most likely end up spending time around MJ. Karl makes a cute appearance as well, which I’ll quote directly tomorrow. Anyway… the good news? Jackson and Mike hit it off (after all, who needs another love triangle-jealous ex story anyway) much to Susan’s annoyance later when she finds out they’ve shared a few too many secrets.

Bree has some explaining to do after Orson sees a promo copy of Bree's book...

Bree is doing press for her new cookbook and Orson isn’t happy about the whole thing. He did, after all, give up several years of his life to make Bree happy and he’s getting pushed aside. Bree, for her part, is trying to keep the peace while doing what she has to do for her career (like using the much nicer sounding Van De Kamp on her book). I think she’s starting to get caught up in all the fame stuff as a way of coping with the loss of Ben. She doesn’t make things any better, though, when she implies during a radio interview her husband is dead without clarifying she has a new one. Bree, I love ya but that was a pretty dumb move. I know you’re embarrassed about the jail thing, but come on- there’s no way that’s not gonna come out. May as well get it over with.

Finally, let’s talk McClusky and the Williams family. Edie is wanting to move because Karen made a joke about her being easy and she feels like no one likes her still, even though she’s changed. Dave seems upset for her, but insists they have to stay. He later goes to Karen and basically orders her to apologize. Karen, being the wonderfully feisty lady she is, refuses because she feels she did nothing wrong. They always insulted each other like that and she didn’t mean anything by it. He disagrees and later steals Ida’s cat to blackmail Karen into apologizing. Karen isn’t falling for his innocent “oh, look! I found the cat!” act and barges in on Katherine to use her computer. She wants to check out Dave’s background…

Like I said… over all, great episode! Everyone did a good job and I love where they’re going with many of the stories. Especially Dave. I can’t wait to see what he’s really up to. What do you all think? Be sure to comment and let me know your theories! See ya next time!

Good morning, everyone!! Well, last night was the night and I have to say, it didn’t disappoint me. It was slightly odd to see the characters in such new situations at times, but I still enjoyed it. Let’s get down to a recap, huh? I’ll start with Lynette.

So, basically, Lynette is in a pretty similar place in her life. The twins are monsters and she can’t make them behave. They’re always getting into trouble and this time, it’s more serious. They got busted for joy riding in the past few years as well as other things. In this episode, they moved on to running a casino, using the Scavo’s pizza place as a location. When Lynette finds out, she flips and demands Tom talk to them. He ends up letting them off the hook, so Lynette tells them they can take Tom’s prize sports car to Homecoming. When the twins don’t come home in time, Tom suddenly gets the picture and realizes what Lynette meant by saying they need to get moving on teaching them how to act, cause they only have a short amount of time left. Wow… she actually clued in to that. I guess that spanking Bree gave them as kids is looking extra good now, huh Lynette?

Gabrielle is, as you remember from the finale, now a mother of two and feeling a bit unattractive. She’s almost glad Carlos is still blind and can’t see how her looks have changed over the past few years. At the same time, she is trying to get Carlos to understand that they need to do something about Juanita’s weight. It’s definitely beyond baby fat and it’s starting to make everyone on the kid’s party scene talk about how Gabby has no ability to say no to the kid. The point is especially clear when Gabby has a really hard time finding a dress that will fit Juanita for one of those parties. Carlos feels as though it’s not a big deal and she’ll likely grow out of it. In the meantime, he doesn’t wanna risk making too big an issue over it and make Juanita self concious about it. There’s a hilarious scene with Gabby tricking Juanita into doing some exercise by making Juanita chase her as she drives Juanita finally gets tired and refuses to do anymore despite Gabby’s attempts to make her keep going. Instead, Juanita gives her a “forget this” look and boards a bus close by. I could swear I saw a smug look on the kid’s face as the bus drives away. Yeah, that’s definitely Gabby’s kid.

Bree is, as you remember, a caterer who is about to release a cookbook. Kathryn becomes furious when she finds out most of the recipes are either Katheryn’s or ones they developed together. Kathryn tries to talk to Bree about it and how she’s being overworked in the catering business now that Bree is spending so much time working on the book and its promotion. Bree shrugs it all off and Kathryn finally teaches Bree a lesson by forcing her to try and create something Bree has never done before, but Kathryn has, on a TV interview. Bree almost does it, but screws it up thanks to a bracelet she’s wearing. Bree gets a chance to re-do the interview and spends quite a bit of time practicing the technique to make sure it’s perfect. Flashbacks reveal later that Danielle came back during these five years and demanded her son back. Bree tries to talk her out of it, but Danielle tells her not to try and fight this, because she’s married to a lawyer now. Bree is devestated by this. Well, at least one of her children grew and evolved into a better person…

In other news, Edie is back and married. If you didn’t watch the sneak peak I showed you, the guy is not only rich, he has Edie under his thumb. He actually gets her to be nice to the girls through most of their scenes and bake muffins, too! They do get into a fight, however, when Edie thinks that a party they threw was an “i’m sorry” thing. The girls actually meant it as more of a “we forgive you” type of event. That did not go over well with Edie. Before things get too crazy, her husband rushes in and pulls her away. He tells her she’s got to be nice and that he thinks they have a chance to be really happy in Wysteria Lane. What Edie might not know is, her new man’s been put away for anger issues before and is on meds. He’s also supposed to check in with someone once a month, but refuses to do so. The last we see of him is a flashback of him telling the doctor he’s not a danger to himself and there’s only one other person that he’d be a danger to as he looks over Wysteria Lane in the present day.

Finally… we’ve got Susan. I know you’re all dying to know what happened with her and Mike, so here it is: Several years ago, Susan was driving Mike to a dinner when another car carrying a mother and child drove right through a stop sign that had fallen down. She hits Susan’s car, causing Susan’s to turn upside down. Later flashbacks show that the mother and child died in the accident and Susan is unable to deal with it. She’s full of guilt over it and doesn’t get why Mike isn’t as upset. This leads to a fight that I assume was one of many similar ones they had and Mike leaves.

Well, there you have it: the first episode of the Season titled “You’re Gonna Love Tomorrow”. I hope you enjoyed the recap…. check back tomorrow for favorite quotes. I’ll also be picking my actor/actress of the week and other stuff this week. See ya then! I leave you with this clip from the episode of Bree and Kathryn:
