00:00:00Previously on Desperate Housewives, as one affair ends...
00:00:05We don't have to stick around anymore. We can have a real relationship.
00:00:08Another begins.
00:00:09Idiot!
00:00:10I had asked her if she'd like to live together, and she said yes.
00:00:13And yet another...
00:00:13This is Rex's mother, Phyllis.
00:00:15Flames, this is Joe Flannery.
00:00:16Are you aware that my daughter-in-law has a boyfriend?
00:00:19Is exposed.
00:00:20And it's not gonna break your heart to leave those sad little faces behind.
00:00:23And while some people can't wait to get out of the house, others are being kept there, against their will.
00:00:30Which one is Rex's headstone? I always forget.
00:00:41It's right down this row.
00:00:43Oh! Oh, yes. That's right.
00:00:46Over the years, Brie Vandekamp had grown increasingly concerned over her mother-in-law's forgetfulness.
00:00:53Oh, honey, did I forget to take the pins out of that dress?
00:00:57Her lapses had become more frequent.
00:01:00Sweetie, didn't I tell you I was gonna paint that chair?
00:01:04More glaring.
00:01:06Oh, dear. Didn't I mention I waxed the floor?
00:01:10And more dangerous.
00:01:12Yes, Brie was worried about Phyllis's faulty memory, but she was more than happy to remind her, especially when it came to the important things.
00:01:23So, have you given any thought to when you might be ending your visit?
00:01:28What?
00:01:29Have I become a burden?
00:01:31Is that what you're saying?
00:01:33I was simply asking when you were planning to leave. There was no agenda behind the question.
00:01:39Oh, I...
00:01:40I don't know.
00:01:42Why don't we play it by ear?
00:01:46Yes, let's.
00:01:52What on earth?
00:01:54Oh, my God.
00:01:55What happened?
00:01:57It looks like someone dug Rex up.
00:01:59Well, I got that, but why?
00:02:01Why would they do that?
00:02:03Well, I don't know.
00:02:07Unless...
00:02:08Unless what?
00:02:10Maybe this has something to do with that insurance investigator.
00:02:15Insurance investigator?
00:02:17He came by asking all sorts of questions.
00:02:20I don't know what you're talking about, Phyllis.
00:02:22Maybe you were at the store.
00:02:24Anyway, he was very suspicious.
00:02:28Suspicious?
00:02:28Oh, yes.
00:02:29He has a theory that Rex didn't die of a heart attack.
00:02:33He thinks he was poisoned.
00:02:35It was in that moment Bree could finally see the truth.
00:02:39Did I not mention that?
00:02:41Her mother-in-law's memory was fine.
00:02:44It was her soul that was faulty.
00:03:02The parties took place on the front lawn of 43-47.
00:03:32Chloe Pendergast would bring the tea set, which was appropriate, since she was the hostess.
00:03:43Brittany Christ provided formal attire from her mother's closet.
00:03:47How are you?
00:03:48And Marissa Ann McKay invited the additional guests, some of whom hadn't been to a party in years.
00:03:57Of course, it never occurred to the three young girls that while they were busy playing out their fantasy,
00:04:04one of the older girls in the neighborhood was engaging in a fantasy of her own.
00:04:10At the very first time, I thought it was possible to pyro-v engang.
00:04:14I think so.
00:04:15Mm-hmm.
00:04:27Yeah.
00:04:28Yeah.
00:04:31Yeah.
00:04:31Yeah.
00:04:32There was nothing Gabrielle enjoyed as much as shopping.
00:04:54And even when she couldn't afford to take anything home, she took satisfaction in looking
00:05:01at the merchandise.
00:05:06Hey Susan, what's going on?
00:05:28We're going to have to have a couple of hours.
00:05:29I'm going to have a couple of hours on the weekend to have Julie.
00:05:30And they're always back by six.
00:05:31That's our custody agreement, back by six.
00:05:32Then it's after six.
00:05:33It's like 6.15.
00:05:34Well, see, there you go.
00:05:36I'm sure they just forgot.
00:05:37Well, I have a court order.
00:05:39It's out of my hands.
00:05:40Yeah, it'd still be nice if you gave him a grace period.
00:05:43Well, I'm being nice.
00:05:44I could have him arrested.
00:05:46I mean, don't get me wrong.
00:05:47I am all for Julie spending time with Carl.
00:05:49He is still her dad, and she loves him.
00:05:51But...
00:05:52But he's with Edie.
00:05:54I mean, she's not exactly the maternal type.
00:05:56I wouldn't be a good mother if I wasn't concerned.
00:05:58I mean, who knows what passes for a kid-friendly good time in there.
00:06:02Drugs, porn, smoking.
00:06:08Doesn't sound like they're having an orgy in there.
00:06:11All through the night.
00:06:13All through the night.
00:06:14All through the night.
00:06:16I'm gonna let it shine.
00:06:18All through the night.
00:06:19Well, obviously, they saw us coming.
00:06:22Let it shine, shine, shine.
00:06:24Let it shine, shine.
00:06:25Let it shine, shine.
00:06:27Woo!
00:06:28That's a strike.
00:06:29Hey, guys.
00:06:30Hey, Mommy.
00:06:31Hey!
00:06:32Look who's here.
00:06:33Parker.
00:06:34Guess what I got?
00:06:35What?
00:06:36School supplies.
00:06:37School supplies?
00:06:38And the best part of it is, I got you a really cool backpack.
00:06:46Whoa!
00:06:47Look at that.
00:06:48Pretty neat, huh?
00:06:49Whoa!
00:06:50Thanks!
00:06:51So, on your first day of school, you and your dad can find your cubby and you can hang
00:06:54it up.
00:06:55You're not taking me?
00:06:57Actually, your dad's gonna take you to school on your first day.
00:06:59Yeah, just me and you, big guy.
00:07:01I'll be right there to hold your hand.
00:07:02But I thought Mommy was taking me.
00:07:04Yeah, well, honey, I have to work.
00:07:06Mommy's boss is a mean, mean lady.
00:07:08And if I miss work, I'll lose my job and then we won't have any money to buy food.
00:07:13Honey, you gotta believe me.
00:07:16If I could be there, you know that I would.
00:07:27All right.
00:07:29I didn't know it was that important to you.
00:07:31I will talk to my boss and I will see what I can do.
00:07:34Thank you, Mommy.
00:07:38Wow, I don't want to rain on your parade, but he just totally manipulated you.
00:07:43Well, hey, when a kid's that good, you gotta give him his due.
00:07:48An autopsy?
00:07:49Detective Rex died of a heart attack.
00:07:51Well, there were some anomalies in the doctor's report.
00:07:54Anomalies?
00:07:55What anomalies?
00:07:56Ma'am, I'm afraid I'm not at liberty to discuss this any further with you.
00:08:02Am I a suspect?
00:08:03I didn't say that.
00:08:05Well, if I am, you're wasting your time.
00:08:07I loved Rex and anyone who knows me will tell you that I was incapable of hurting him.
00:08:12You sure about that?
00:08:17You talked to Phyllis.
00:08:18Again, I can't discuss the case.
00:08:21She's my mother-in-law.
00:08:22Of course she said horrible things about me.
00:08:24Ma'am, low your voice.
00:08:25She blamed me for every problem that Rex and I ever had.
00:08:27So there were problems with the marriage?
00:08:28Well, it was a marriage.
00:08:30Of course there were problems.
00:08:31May I record this just so there's no confusion over your statement?
00:08:34No, you may not record this.
00:08:36So you refused to make a statement?
00:08:37I'm not refusing anything.
00:08:38All I'm saying is stay away from Phyllis.
00:08:40She's a raving loon.
00:08:42Ma'am, perhaps you'd be more comfortable with an attorney present.
00:08:46You want a statement?
00:08:47Fine.
00:08:48I'll give you a statement.
00:08:52My husband died of a heart attack.
00:08:54I loved him very deeply.
00:08:55And your mother did a lousy job.
00:08:57To Bree's way of thinking, there were two kinds of people in the world.
00:09:04Those who were useless before their morning coffee.
00:09:07And those who weren't.
00:09:08What's going on?
00:09:12Don't rush me, Bree.
00:09:13I'm an old woman.
00:09:14Don't rush me, Bree.
00:09:15I'm an old woman.
00:09:16Don't rush me.
00:09:17Don't rush me.
00:09:18Get her out of here.
00:09:19I will tell you one thing.
00:09:20You wouldn't be acting this way.
00:09:22You didn't feel guilty of that.
00:09:23You were in something.
00:09:24Don't you love me, Bree.
00:09:25I'll let you go.
00:09:26I'll let them.
00:09:27Don't you grow me, Bree.
00:09:28what's going on don't rush me brie i'm an old woman don't rush me

00:15:17that they might need a little more balance in their lives like maybe they want to go see a

00:15:45open wide not now stew hang on a sec i don't understand this system is gonna let mommy be with
00:15:59you on your first day of school the resolution is fantastic
00:16:06the next day gabrielle decided to cheer herself up with another round of window shopping
00:16:23but this time she was taken aback by what was on display
00:16:36so
00:16:58oh
00:17:34Mrs. Tillman.
00:17:38Mr. Delfino.
00:17:39I heard you were back from the hospital.
00:17:42I brought you these.
00:17:43I can't tell you how long it's been since I got flowers from a handsome man.
00:17:47I mean, I could, but I don't want your pity.
00:17:54Where are you off to?
00:17:55I'm going back to Utah for a few weeks.
00:17:57The recuperation is taking longer than the doctors anticipated.
00:18:00Speaking of my attack, have they caught young Zachary yet?
00:18:05No. Actually, that's why I'm here.
00:18:08So the flowers were just a ruse. Figures.
00:18:11I'm trying to find Zach before he gets in any more trouble.
00:18:13Do you know any friends that he might have, anywhere he might be holed up?
00:18:17I know you were close to him.
00:18:19Funny thing. Since he beat me and threw me down the stairs,
00:18:21we just don't stay in touch like we should.
00:18:23Since when do you care so much about Zach Young?
00:18:28It's complicated.
00:18:30I'll bet.
00:18:33I'm sure he's out there somewhere trying to find his father,
00:18:36which I trust you made impossible.
00:18:40No, I let Paul go.
00:18:42I couldn't go through with it.
00:18:46That was a mistake.
00:18:49He will spend the rest of his life running from the police.
00:18:51I think that's punishment enough.
00:18:54Zach is the only connection that Paul has with his dead wife.
00:18:57At some point, he will run back here looking for him.
00:19:02I don't like to be negative, but you really should have killed him.
00:19:16At the risk of ruining a lovely evening, I have some unpleasant news.
00:19:21The police dug up your father today.
00:19:26What?
00:19:27Why?
00:19:28Well, apparently they want to do an autopsy.
00:19:31They don't think that he had a heart attack.
00:19:32They think that somebody was poisoning him.
00:19:34Who would have poisoned Daddy?
00:19:36Well, apparently I'm a suspect.
00:19:38Well, they always look at spouses first.
00:19:44It has something to do with statistics.
00:19:47It's just a formality.
00:19:48I'll be clear it in no time.
00:19:52Would you two please stop looking at me like that?
00:19:54Obviously, I did not kill your father.
00:19:55I loved him deeply.
00:19:57Yeah, but you and Dad had a lot of problems.
00:19:59Everyone knows that.
00:19:59Yes, we had issues, but I would never have hurt him.
00:20:02What about the night Daddy had his second heart attack?
00:20:05You must have loved him a lot to make the bed before taking him to the hospital.
00:20:08I was in shock, Danielle.
00:20:09You know that.
00:20:13Andrew, surely you don't think I murdered your father.
00:20:16No, you didn't.
00:20:18You're not capable of murder.
00:20:21That wasn't a compliment.
00:20:22It takes guts to kill somebody.
00:20:30Thank you so much for changing your mind about helping me.
00:20:33I really appreciate it.
00:20:34I'm happy.
00:20:36And I'm sorry if I seemed rude before.
00:20:40I was having a bad day.
00:20:47That's good.
00:20:48It's pretty good.
00:20:50You might want to lay off the pedal.
00:20:53Really?
00:20:54Oh, I thought it made it sound more professional.
00:20:56It doesn't.
00:21:02Well, your son really likes to play his hip-hop music loud.
00:21:06The good news is it drowns out the sound of the dryer.
00:21:13Bart your fingers, Susan.
00:21:22Let it shine.
00:21:32Let it shine, shine, shine.
00:21:34Let it shine.
00:21:38Hi.
00:21:39I'm sorry to interrupt.
00:21:40I knocked.
00:21:40But I guess you guys didn't hear me.
00:21:42No, we heard you.
00:21:43We were just hoping that whoever it was would go away.
00:21:45I'm still hoping that'll happen.
00:21:48What's up, Mom?
00:21:50Well, I have good news.
00:21:52I've been taking piano lessons with Betty Applewhite.
00:21:55And, uh, well, I just thought maybe I could join you guys.
00:21:58You know, like a trio.
00:21:59Doesn't that sound fun?
00:22:00I don't do trios.
00:22:02Thanks, anyway.
00:22:04Well, I don't mean to be technical here, but this show, I mean, it really is supposed to
00:22:08be a family thing.
00:22:09And I hate to point out, you're not family.
00:22:12No, but I have talent.
00:22:14And to most audiences, talent trumps family.
00:22:17Well, what makes you so sure I don't have talent?
00:22:21Hmm.
00:22:21Just a hunch.
00:22:23Yeah, well, we've all seen your talent.
00:22:26Which is a nice way of telling you...
00:22:27Why don't you put some curtains on your bedroom window?
00:22:29Guys!
00:22:29Oh, come on, be honest.
00:22:30You didn't want any part of this until you found out that I was involved.
00:22:33That is so not true.
00:22:34Oh, yes, it is.
00:22:36It burns you that your own daughter picked me over you.
00:22:38She did not pick you.
00:22:40It just didn't occur to her that I would agree to do it.
00:22:42Well, now she knows.
00:22:43And if she had it to do over again, she'd pick me.
00:22:45No, she wouldn't.
00:22:46Well, why don't we put it to a test?
00:22:48Julie, who would you rather have play with you?
00:22:50Oh, no.
00:22:50No, no, no, no.
00:22:51No, it's okay, honey.
00:22:52Who do you want to be with you in the family talent show?
00:22:56Yes, who do you want with you in front of all of those people?
00:23:00And remember, it's church.
00:23:01They are going to be judging you.
00:23:07Okay.
00:23:07Well, first of all, you both suck.
00:23:11But if I had to choose, I guess I'd pick my mom.
00:23:18Sorry, Edie.
00:23:20Fair enough.
00:23:22I'd like my pitch pipe back, please.
00:23:31It was you, wasn't it?
00:23:32Hello, John.
00:23:33Long time no see.
00:23:35One of the neighbors saw an Aston Martin driving away.
00:23:38And what do you know?
00:23:39Well, someone had to tend to the yard.
00:23:41You were busy elsewhere.
00:23:44You saw us?
00:23:45Yes.
00:23:46And I have to say, she's old enough to be your mother.
00:23:48Hell, she's old enough to be my mother.
00:23:49Joan's only 41.
00:23:50Joan?
00:23:51You're calling her Joan?
00:23:53Why shouldn't I?
00:23:53She's my friend.
00:23:54I know your friends.
00:23:55And I have a hunch you don't do to your friends what I saw you doing to that wrinkly old lady.
00:23:59Okay, so you caught me doing it with somebody else.
00:24:02What's the big deal?
00:24:02You're supposed to be in love with me.
00:24:05What?
00:24:05How many times did you say it?
00:24:06How many times did you whisper in my ear, you're the only woman I'll ever love?
00:24:09I don't know.
00:24:10A bunch.
00:24:11So were you lying to me?
00:24:12Were you just trying to get me into bed?
00:24:13No, of course not.
00:24:15I loved you, but we broke up.
00:24:16Yeah, like five minutes ago.
00:24:18Haven't you ever heard of a mourning period?
00:24:20I know it seems quick, but I have feelings for her.
00:24:23In fact, I think I may be in love with her.
00:24:30Oh, my God.
00:24:31What's the matter?
00:24:32Is it the baby?
00:24:33No.
00:24:36Oh, no, no, it's me.
00:24:39I am beyond stupid.
00:24:43You're not stupid.
00:24:45Oh, no, I am.
00:24:47Yesterday, I was still fantasizing that it could work with you.
00:24:50That a one-bedroom apartment might be cozy.
00:24:52Mrs. Solis, please.
00:24:54Oh, my God.
00:24:55I almost left my husband for someone who calls me Mrs. Solis.
00:25:05So are you upset because you want to get back together?
00:25:08Because I can break up with Joan.
00:25:12That's okay, sweetie.
00:25:13I'm good.
00:25:13I'm good.
00:25:22So this is it for us?
00:25:26Because I really feel like we should end it better than this.
00:25:29Actually, John, given how stupid both of us have been, this is an entirely appropriate ending.
00:25:34Mrs. Vandekamp, what can I do for you?
00:25:51I would like to submit myself to a lie detector test to eliminate any uncertainty about what happened with my husband.
00:25:57Are you sure you don't want a little air present?
00:25:59I'll waive all that.
00:26:00My only stipulation is that I want my children to be able to see me answer the questions.
00:26:05I think we can accommodate you.
00:26:08Is your name Bree Vandekamp?
00:26:10Yes.
00:26:12Were you married to Rex Vandekamp?
00:26:14Yes.
00:26:15Did you and your husband temporarily separate last year?
00:26:19Yes.
00:26:20Did you kill your husband?
00:26:22No.
00:26:27Do you know a man named George Williams?
00:26:32Yes.
00:26:33During your separation from your husband, did you have a relationship with Mr. Williams?
00:26:38What does that have to do with anything?
00:26:41Just yes or no responses, please.
00:26:42Well, I'm not going to respond to something that's none of your business.
00:26:47Mrs. Vandekamp, if you want us to take this polygraph seriously, answer the questions we ask, okay?
00:26:57Who's George Williams?
00:26:59He's our fire assist.
00:27:01During your separation, did you have a relationship with Mr. Williams?
00:27:05Yes.
00:27:07Are you in love with Mr. Williams?
00:27:10What?
00:27:11Are you in love with Mr. Williams?
00:27:15No.
00:27:20Um, I was thinking of something else just then, so why don't you ask me the question again?
00:27:27Are you in love with Mr. Williams?
00:27:29No.
00:27:36Did you see that?
00:27:37Yeah.
00:27:39I saw it.
00:27:53Hello, Susan.
00:27:54Are you ready for your lesson?
00:27:56Yep, I am.
00:27:57I think I'm going to make another push for using that pedal.
00:27:59I think it adds grandeur.
00:28:01I want to talk to you.
00:28:05I'm busy now.
00:28:06I cannot believe you kicked Edie out of Julie's performance.
00:28:10I did not kick Edie out.
00:28:12Julie made that call.
00:28:13Because you played the mom card.
00:28:14Well, it is a family recital, and Edie is not family.
00:28:18One day she could be.
00:28:19Oh, don't even joke like that.
00:28:20How about your plumber slash convicted murderer, huh?
00:28:23He seems to keep popping up at family events.
00:28:26It was not murder.
00:28:27It was manslaughter.
00:28:28And that's totally different.
00:28:29Mike and I aren't even living together, and he cares about Julie.
00:28:31Well, so does Edie, huh?
00:28:32She was really looking forward to performing with Julie.
00:28:35If you think Edie Britt cares about anybody other than herself, you are living in a fool's
00:28:39paradise.
00:28:40You don't know her the way I do, and the only reason she's interested in Julie is to mess
00:28:44with my head.
00:28:47That's both crazy and self-absorbed.
00:28:50That's a twofer.
00:28:51Way to go.
00:28:54Whether you choose to believe it or not, they're both great together.
00:28:57And if you don't believe me, ask Julie.
00:29:05I'm sorry you had to witness that.
00:29:14Oh, it's okay, hon.
00:29:16I have lived my share of family knockdown drag-outs.
00:29:19Well, I hope it wasn't as ugly as me and Kara.
00:29:22You'd be surprised.
00:29:24Parker?
00:29:25Honey?
00:29:26Can you hear me?
00:29:27Tom, why isn't he talking?
00:29:29Um, honey, there are a lot of kids here.
00:29:30He's a little stressed.
00:29:32Parker, say hi.
00:29:32Say hi.
00:29:33Honey?
00:29:34Oh.
00:29:35Hey, honey.
00:29:36This is so exciting.
00:29:38Your first day of school.
00:29:39You're going to make so many friends.
00:29:41Lena, staff meeting now.
00:29:44Uh, right.
00:29:45Yeah, I'm going to be right there.
00:29:46Now, now, now, now!
00:29:50Stu, it's coffee.
00:29:51It's cold.
00:29:52Okay, honey, I'm going to be right back.
00:29:55Mommy?
00:29:56Where are you going?
00:29:57Right back.
00:29:58Mommy, come back.
00:30:01Okay, let's turn to page five.
00:30:03Damn, I forgot my prospectus.
00:30:07Any extra copies?
00:30:08No?
00:30:08I'll be right back.
00:30:12Hi, I'm back.
00:30:13How's he doing?
00:30:14Um, honey, he's upset because he wanted to show you his copy.
00:30:17You left.
00:30:18Oh, honey, I'm here.
00:30:19I'm here.
00:30:19You can show me your copy now.
00:30:21Nina found extra copies.
00:30:22She wants you back now.
00:30:24Okay.
00:30:25I'll be back in two seconds for you.
00:30:27Mommy, mommy, don't come!
00:30:29So the big issue here is second quarter billing.
00:30:33Where are you going?
00:30:34That is wrong.
00:30:35No.
00:30:36Nina, nature is calling.
00:30:37Lynette, hold it for ten minutes.
00:30:39We have to get through this.
00:30:40What I'd like to do is trade out the invoicing structure.
00:30:52Let's take a look at our graphs on page ten, please.
00:30:55Lynette had been struggling to balance her career and her family.
00:31:00She finally saw an opportunity to tip the scales in her favor.
00:31:06Delivering clients with invoices on the shorter-term campaigns.
00:31:09I say we bill on delivery.
00:31:10Yes!
00:31:12Bill on delivery!
00:31:13Yes!
00:31:14Are you having a seizure?
00:31:16No.
00:31:17No, I'm just, I'm very excited.
00:31:20It's a really good plan.
00:31:22Yeah.
00:31:24Now, what happened on the Berman account is that they were sent duplicate bills by Tina and Ron in accounting.
00:31:31And I'm not pointing any fingers, but Tina, Ron, about walking in and seeing all my lines lit up with the scrunchies.
00:31:37Ow!
00:31:37Ow!
00:31:38Hot!
00:31:38Hot!
00:31:39Help!
00:31:41Help!
00:31:42Stu!
00:31:44And that's why we packed you extra cookies so you could share with all your new friends, remember?
00:31:48Uh-huh.
00:31:49I think we're good to go now, honey.
00:31:51You're going to be great, Parker.
00:31:53I love you.
00:31:55I love you too, Mommy.
00:31:56Mwah!
00:31:56Mwah!
00:32:01Brie.
00:32:11Hi.
00:32:12What can I do for you?
00:32:13Well, for starters, you can help me prove to the police that we didn't conspire to kill my husband.
00:32:18Okay.
00:32:19So because of the anomalies in Rex's blood, the police started to wonder if I'd been poisoning Rex.
00:32:24That's absurd.
00:32:25Lots of things can cause high potassium levels, renal failure, low sodium.
00:32:28Well, that's why I took the polygraph, to prove to them that I was innocent.
00:32:31Obviously, you passed.
00:32:34Sort of.
00:32:36Well, I think the police now have a different theory, which is if I wasn't poisoning Rex on my own, then maybe you were helping me.
00:32:46You're kidding.
00:32:46No, that's why I need you to take the polygraph too.
00:32:49W-what?
00:32:52It's the quickest way to prove to the police that they're wrong.
00:32:55I don't understand.
00:32:55We're just friends.
00:32:57Why would the police assume that people in a platonic relationship would want to murder someone?
00:33:04Um.
00:33:05During the test, they asked me some questions about you and, um, us and whether we had a relationship.
00:33:14And I said, yes, because it's true.
00:33:16And then they asked me something else, something I hadn't considered.
00:33:21Which was?
00:33:23They asked me if I loved you.
00:33:28What did you say?
00:33:29I said, no.
00:33:33Oh.
00:33:35But according to the polygraph, that wasn't exactly true.
00:33:42Well, I don't, I don't know if that means anything.
00:33:45The polygraphs aren't completely reliable.
00:33:48I think perhaps the machine picked up on something, something that I wasn't aware of.
00:33:55Wow.
00:33:59That's why I need you to take the test and answer the detective's questions.
00:34:02Because I'm not going to know exactly how I feel until we put this behind us.
00:34:05But then once we do, we can move on.
00:34:14Can those Ciccarelli sisters dance or what?
00:34:17Wow, look out, Broadway.
00:34:19Now, don't forget that we will have cookies and juice set up in the basement after we're done here.
00:34:24We want to see you all there.
00:34:25And for our next act, please welcome the musical stylings of Julie and Susan Myers.
00:34:31I'll be right back.
00:34:58Oh, um, I'm just going to need a couple of seconds, so feel free to pray.
00:35:07The other day when I saw you making music with my family, I got a little jealous and I went a little crazy and I pushed you out.
00:35:15Seeing you sitting here today, well, I can see how much you care about Julie and she comes first.
00:35:23And it should be you up there playing with her and not me.
00:35:27So, I'm sorry.
00:35:30Thank you, Susan.
00:35:38How convenient that you decided this after I showed up without my guitar.
00:35:42Well, like I said, I'm sorry.
00:35:47I wish it could be you up there.
00:35:49You know, I play piano.
00:35:53And so, let's all welcome Julie Meyer and her Aunt Edie.
00:35:56You did a good thing.
00:36:05Yeah, well, I try.
00:36:06Give me a break.
00:36:31This thing has like 90 flats in it.
00:36:33Oh, Julie.
00:36:37Stop it.
00:36:38You're loving this.
00:36:40No.
00:36:41Not at all.
00:36:42Let it shine, shine, shine.
00:36:46Let it shine.
00:36:53Open up.
00:36:54Let's wait.
00:36:55So, they said you needed to see me.
00:37:07What is it?
00:37:07What's going on?
00:37:08I've been thinking, you know, about everything that happened with John.
00:37:22And, and, and, um, I was really selfish and stupid.
00:37:36And I'm sorry.
00:37:40I really am sorry.
00:37:42That's all I had to say, really.
00:37:59You know what?
00:38:02That is the best anniversary gift that you've ever given me.
00:38:07Really?
00:38:09Really?
00:38:10Yeah.
00:38:14Actually, the one you gave me is really nice, too.
00:38:22Everyone enjoys a game of make-believe now and then.
00:38:25Of course, the ways in which we play can vary greatly.
00:38:31Sometimes we tell ourselves work won't interfere with our family life.
00:38:36What at the staff meeting now?
00:38:37Yeah.
00:38:40Sometimes we imagine certain relationships to be more meaningful than they really are.
00:38:46Occasionally, we put on a show as if to convince ourselves our secrets aren't really all that terrible.
00:39:00Yes, the game of make-believe is a simple one.
00:39:04Did you know Rex Vandicamp?
00:39:07Yes.
00:39:08Did Mrs. Vandicamp ask you to poison her husband?
00:39:12No.
00:39:12Did you poison Rex Vandicamp?
00:39:16You start by lying to yourself.
00:39:19No.
00:39:23And if you can get others to believe those lies, you win.
00:39:34Previously on Desperate Housewives...
00:39:36You're not taking me?
00:39:37Dad's gonna take you.
00:39:38Come on.
00:39:38Lynette's new job came with a price.
00:39:40If this charge sticks, I get sent away for eight years.
00:39:43And Carlos paid for his mistakes.
00:39:45Are you in love with Mr. Williams?
00:39:46No.
00:39:47I think the machine picked up on something that I wasn't aware of.
00:39:50While Bree detected feelings she'd never known...
00:39:52You come within ten feet of her.
00:39:54I will have you arrested.
00:39:54Now get out.
00:39:55Susan discovered something.
00:39:56Zach is your son, isn't he?
00:39:58Too close to home.
00:40:02The residents of the Fairview County Jail looked forward to every Tuesday.
00:40:06That was the day that Gabrielle Solis came to visit her husband.
00:40:11The inmates went out of their way to give her compliments, whether she wanted them to or not.
00:40:16With each visit, these accolades became increasingly inventive.
00:40:22Still, Gabrielle was not flattered.
00:40:24In fact, Gabrielle started to dread this special attention.
00:40:32Until one day when...
00:40:34I don't think a conjugal visit is such a ridiculous request.
00:40:37With all due respect, Mrs. Solis, let's just get through the discovery phase first, okay?
00:40:40I don't think I can wait that long.
00:40:42I am trying to get your husband out of jail.
00:40:44You want me to just stop everything so you can have a booty call?
00:40:47Excuse me.
00:40:47We are husband and wife.
00:40:49We make love.
00:40:49It is a very sacred covenant.
00:40:52Okay, look.
00:40:53All we need is 20 minutes.
00:40:54I said no.
00:40:54You can't tell me no.
00:40:56You work for me.
00:40:57You will make it happen.
00:40:58You can't force me to do anything.
00:41:00I am not your maid.
00:41:02Or your gardener.
00:41:05I could have you arrested for that.
00:41:06Oh, really?
00:41:07Then how about for this?
00:41:09You crazy bitch!
00:41:11Ow!
00:41:12Hey, what jokes to the lady?
00:41:15Big mistake, pal.
00:41:16I play golf with the warden.
00:41:18You're going to rush.
00:41:20You heard him.
00:41:22Apologize.
00:41:22Look, fellas.
00:41:23I am just trying to do my job.
00:41:25This is all her fault.
00:41:26If she weren't so damn horny...
00:41:27Ow!
00:41:28Ow!
00:41:28Ow!
00:41:28Ow!
00:41:29Ow!
00:41:29Ow!
00:41:29Ow!
00:41:29Ow!
00:41:29Ow!
00:41:30Ow!
00:41:30Ow!
00:41:31Ow!
00:41:31Ow!
00:41:32Ow!
00:41:32Ow!
00:41:33Ow!
00:41:33Ow!
00:41:34Ow!
00:41:34Ow!
00:41:35It was at that moment it occurred to Gabrielle.
00:41:37Apologize!
00:41:38Ow!
00:41:39Apologize!
00:41:39Ow!
00:41:40This was the nicest compliment she had ever received.
00:41:43Now!
00:41:46This was a vampire man once again.
00:41:49My girlfriend was so sweating.
00:41:50I didn't think this happened when I was more reason to do it.
00:41:52So I've never seen about it.
00:41:56I've never happened when I was too angry to him.
00:41:57Take off your phone.
00:41:59Take off your phone.
00:41:59ambos who have através of his motherhood.
00:42:08And protect himself scarnes behind.
00:42:09Now!
00:42:10Christ!
00:42:12There was one thing all the fathers on Wisteria Lane had in common.
00:42:30They could return home from a hard day's work to the family they'd left behind,
00:42:35and not feel at all guilty about the precious moments they had missed.
00:42:39Sadly, the same could not be said for the working mothers.
00:43:03Hey, honey, I helped dinner for as long as I could have just got too late for them.
00:43:08Are you going to give them coffee or something?
00:43:10I just feel like I'm missing out on their lives entirely.
00:43:13Hey, you sit, eat, and I will fill you in.
00:43:18Oh, don't eat that. That's been sitting out for hours.
00:43:20That's for Mrs. Mulberry.
00:43:22This is for you.
00:43:25I'm sorry, who?
00:43:26Oh, Mrs. Mulberry.
00:43:28Parker has an imaginary friend, British nanny.
00:43:32I think he really locked into the whole Mary Poppins thing.
00:43:35Is that why he's sleeping with an umbrella?
00:43:37He carries it with him everywhere.
00:43:39It's a security blanket.
00:43:41When did this start?
00:43:43About a week ago, I guess.
00:43:44And you don't find it odd that Parker's new nanny made her appearance right at the time I went back to work?
00:43:49Kids have imaginary friends. It's no big deal.
00:43:51I'll agree with you to a point when they're flying kangaroos or giant robots, not surrogate mommies.
00:43:57Hey. Parker's having a little trouble adjusting. That's all. Apparently so are you.
00:44:04Honey, don't be so sensitive.
00:44:05I hope you're right.
00:44:08At the risk of sounding too sensitive, how come she gets a bigger portion?
00:44:12What, that's it?
00:44:22You're the one that said you wanted things to be casual in between this.
00:44:25Yeah, but that doesn't mean we have to act like brother and sister.
00:44:28I mean, you bought me ribs. I have gratitude to express.
00:44:30What's wrong?
00:44:38I can't do this. This casual thing, it's weird.
00:44:43No, no, it's not.
00:44:45We're just going to pretend like it was when we first started dating.
00:44:48We'll just see each other occasionally.
00:44:50You know, until we get the Zach thing resolved.
00:44:54You know, we'll just be easy about it. No commitments.
00:44:57Except, of course, neither of us is allowed to date anybody else.
00:45:00Look, I... I know how you feel about Zach.
00:45:05And I don't blame you.
00:45:08But he's part of the package right now.
00:45:10And either you can accept that or you can't.
00:45:20Anyway.
00:45:27Mike, wait!
00:45:30I accept.
00:45:33Are you sure?
00:45:34Zach's your son.
00:45:36And I have Julia, and you've totally accepted her.
00:45:39I mean, granted, she's been the model child so far.
00:45:41But she's almost 15. She's going to turn on me any minute.
00:45:43You better be there to help me when it gets ugly.
00:45:46I will.
00:45:47Good night.
00:45:55Susan.
00:45:56Yeah?
00:45:58Technically, we don't have to be casual anymore.
00:46:00I can be naked in 20 seconds.
00:46:04That includes travel time.
00:46:06Carlos, will you calm down?
00:46:08You incited a prison riot!
00:46:09It wasn't a riot.
00:46:10It was more of a melee.
00:46:12Who's going to defend me now?
00:46:13Doyle knew my case.
00:46:14He knew the judge.
00:46:15He called me a bitch.
00:46:16Well, were you acting like one?
00:46:18He refused to help me get a conjugal visit.
00:46:22Hold it.
00:46:23My lawyer's in traction because you wanted sex?
00:46:26Not just for me.
00:46:27For us.
00:46:28In case you haven't noticed, Carlos, our marriage is still on shaky ground.
00:46:32And you thought a conjugal visit would fix it.
00:46:35It couldn't hurt.
00:46:36Ever since you've been in here, all we do is micker.
00:46:38That's all we ever did when I was out.
00:46:39That's what we do.
00:46:40Yeah, but when we would finish arguing, we would have this great sex.
00:46:43Now all we do is fight, and there's no payoff, and it sucks.
00:46:45You and I need to get laid.
00:46:50Don't judge me.
00:46:51You're not in here because you got caught helping the poor.
00:46:55See, we'd be enjoying this argument more if we had something to look forward to.
00:46:58Fine.
00:47:00Get the damn lawyer.
00:47:03And make it quick.
00:47:11I take it that was my goodnight kiss.
00:47:13George, you're a very special friend.
00:47:15You are.
00:47:16But Rex hasn't been dead four weeks, so I think kissing on the lips is...
00:47:19Further than you want to go.
00:47:20Exactly.
00:47:21I hope you don't mind.
00:47:26Andrew, what are you doing?
00:47:28Taking out the garbage?
00:47:30Of course.
00:47:31You remember Mr. Williams?
00:47:33Hi, Andrew.
00:47:34George?
00:47:38Well, it's getting late, so...
00:47:40Yeah.
00:47:40So let me know if you want to go out to dinner again soon.
00:47:43There's a couple new restaurants I'd like to try.
00:47:45You know, we've been eating out a lot lately.
00:47:47Why don't you come over Friday for a home-cooked meal?
00:47:50Wouldn't that be nice?
00:47:50I would love that.
00:47:56So are you leaving, or what?
00:47:58We're not done talking.
00:47:59She said it was getting late.
00:48:00In case you missed that, that was a hint.
00:48:02Andrew, that wasn't a hint.
00:48:04I'll go when I'm ready.
00:48:11Actually, it is getting late, and I am tired, so...
00:48:15See, you're in the way now.
00:48:17Take off.
00:48:18Andrew.
00:48:18It's okay.
00:48:19He's not really that tough.
00:48:21He knows I would never hit a child.
00:48:24Andrew!
00:48:26George!
00:48:27Okay!
00:48:28Stop it!
00:48:28The two of you, this instant!
00:48:29This was a perfectly lovely evening, and now the both of you have ruined it.
00:48:36I will not tolerate this kind of behavior.
00:48:38Do you understand?
00:48:45All right, then.
00:48:46George, we'll see you Friday for dinner.
00:48:50I'll be serving fish.
00:48:51Hey, buddy.
00:49:03Hey, wake up, slippy head.
00:49:05Shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:49:06Parker.
00:49:06Hi.
00:49:07Hi, pal.
00:49:08Hey, what do you say you and me go get some donuts, okay, before mommy has to go to work?
00:49:13Yeah?
00:49:14Come on.
00:49:15Come on.
00:49:15Come on.
00:49:16Come on, come on, come on.
00:49:17All right.
00:49:18Oh, so, what do you think you're going to have, huh?
00:49:23Jelly?
00:49:23Because I think I'm going to have a bear claw.
00:49:26Stop!
00:49:29I'm a smallberry.
00:49:30What?
00:49:32Oh.
00:49:32Um, well, since I'm here, maybe she could just relax in the house for a while, okay?
00:49:40No, I need her.
00:49:43Okay.
00:49:48Hello, Mrs. Mulberry.
00:49:50Don't forget to buckle up.
00:49:54Here we go.
00:49:56Wait!
00:49:57We forgot her umbrella.
00:49:59Well, Parker, we don't have time.
00:50:01No!
00:50:02He needs it.
00:50:12Hey.
00:50:13Hey, what are you still doing here?
00:50:14I'm looking for Parker's umbrella.
00:50:16Have you seen it?
00:50:17No.
00:50:17Nope, sorry.
00:50:19Hey, honey, you better hurry.
00:50:20You're going to be late for work.
00:50:22Thank you for that.
00:50:25Here it is.
00:50:32I couldn't find Mrs. Mulberry's umbrella, so I brought her her sun hat instead.
00:50:37All right?
00:50:38And here we go.
00:50:39It's in the shower.
00:50:40What?
00:50:41Mrs. Mulberry says she left it in the shower.
00:50:43Well, why didn't Mrs. Mulberry volunteer that information before I turned her room upside down looking for it, hmm?
00:50:50Are you going to go get it?
00:50:51No, I'm not going to get the damn umbrella!
00:50:57I'm so sorry, sweetie.
00:50:58I am not mad at you.
00:51:01What are you doing?
00:51:01We don't want doughnuts.
00:51:22Andrew, you are not leaving the house dressed like that.
00:51:26I'm just going to meet some of the guys at the swim club.
00:51:28I don't care. Put this on.
00:51:32Every time you leave this house, you represent this family, and the least you can do is not humiliate us.
00:51:37Her t-shirt is just a look.
00:51:39Yes, a bad one.
00:51:43I hope you haven't made plans for tomorrow night.
00:51:45Look, if you think I'm having dinner with the pharmacist, you're crazy.
00:51:49Part of the reason I'm having him over is so that you can get to know him.
00:51:52Yeah, well, I don't want to get to know him.
00:51:55Honey, the feelings that you're having are perfectly normal.
00:51:59But George isn't trying to take your father's place.
00:52:02He's, well, he's just a friend.
00:52:04Really? Just a friend?
00:52:05Mm-hmm.
00:52:06So you're not planning on getting more serious with this guy in the future?
00:52:09You know, I haven't even thought about it.
00:52:13You're so transparent, it's pathetic.
00:52:16You're worried about a ripped t-shirt humiliating this family?
00:52:19Wait till people see that you're dating the town nerd less than a month after your husband's funeral.
00:52:24I'll be serving dinner tomorrow night at seven. Please don't be late.
00:52:27I'm sorry, but I already have plans.
00:52:30Andrew, don't you have a meet at the swim club?
00:52:32Yeah, so?
00:52:33Doesn't it require a large entrance fee, one that you can't afford by yourself?
00:52:43Are you blackmailing me into coming to dinner?
00:52:46No, you don't know the lengths I'd go to for even seating.
00:52:54Meyer?
00:52:55Is this yours?
00:52:56Blew into my front yard.
00:52:58Oh, sorry.
00:52:59I'm helping Mike find Zach.
00:53:00You know, so we can all rest easy at night.
00:53:03Uh-huh.
00:53:04And put him in jail?
00:53:06Well, I don't think Mike would do that to his own son.
00:53:09You know?
00:53:10That Mike's Zach's real father.
00:53:12Yes.
00:53:15Julie told Carl, Carl told me, and I sent out a few emails.
00:53:21Well, thanks for your discretion.
00:53:22Boy, you would do anything to get Mike Delfino to love you.
00:53:27So what's going to happen to a little creepy when he gets here?
00:53:30Are you going to be tucking him in at night?
00:53:32Making him breakfast in the morning?
00:53:34Careful to bob and weave as he tries to blow your head off?
00:53:37You know, Edie, could you just back off?
00:53:39I mean, the truth is, we're probably never going to find Zach anyway.
00:53:42It's a needle in a haystack.
00:53:43Oh, I see.
00:53:45And then you'll still come off as little Miss Perfect's self-sacrificing girlfriend,
00:53:49putting his needs ahead of yours.
00:53:53Oh, why, you conniving little shrew.
00:53:59I don't know why we're not close.
00:54:01There was a reason David Bradley was the most successful lawyer in all of Fairview.
00:54:16His arguments were persuasive.
00:54:18No one ever has to know.
00:54:20His manner was forceful.
00:54:23Take it off.
00:54:24Take it off.
00:54:25And he tended to win on appeal.
00:54:28Please.
00:54:29And when it came to the more challenging cases,
00:54:36he knew it was to his advantage to raise the first objection.
00:54:41I'm not going to take your case.
00:54:44What?
00:54:45Yes?
00:54:46Sorry to interrupt, Mr. Bradley.
00:54:47Your dinner just canceled.
00:54:48Did you want me to pull your reservation?
00:54:49No, I still have to eat.
00:54:51I'm sorry, where were we?
00:54:52You were about to turn me down,
00:54:53and then you reconsidered once you realized
00:54:55I was going to throw a ton of money at you.
00:54:57Which I am.
00:54:59Ah.
00:55:01It's not about the money for me anymore, Ms. Solis.
00:55:04The fact is, if I don't feel passionately about a client,
00:55:06if I don't feel that fire in my belly,
00:55:08I don't bring my A-game to court.
00:55:09And from what I've read, it'll take my A-game to save your husband.
00:55:11This is about the gay bashing thing.
00:55:12He's innocent.
00:55:14He went berserk and attacked a man in court.
00:55:16Yeah, but that was a jealousy thing.
00:55:17The man that my husband was trying to kill in court,
00:55:19it's not the least of it, gay.
00:55:21Trust me.
00:55:23Your file also says you're seeking conjugal visits.
00:55:26Trying to keep the old marriage alive, huh?
00:55:29Why does everybody have a problem with me having sex with my husband?
00:55:31Can I be frank?
00:55:35Only if it ends with me getting what I want.
00:55:37Your marriage is doomed.
00:55:39Excuse me?
00:55:40I've been doing this for a long time, Ms. Solis.
00:55:42I know what incarceration can do to a relationship.
00:55:44Marriage is hard enough,
00:55:46but when you throw in cement walls and armed guards, iron bars,
00:55:49it tends to go downhill rather quickly.
00:55:54Conjugal visits notwithstanding.
00:55:56But I...
00:55:57Listen, you want my advice.
00:55:59Walk away.
00:56:01You're young.
00:56:03You made a mistake.
00:56:05You learned from it.
00:56:06Maybe next time you'll marry smarter.
00:56:10If you'll excuse me, I have dinner reservations.
00:56:14Reservation.
00:56:15You're eating alone, remember?
00:56:17And I have a feeling it's not the first time.
00:56:26I'm so sorry.
00:56:27I couldn't get here sooner.
00:56:28I forgot my husband had to take our youngest pediatrician.
00:56:32That's all right, Mrs. Scumbo.
00:56:35So, what did Parker do?
00:56:37Are you aware that your son has an imaginary friend,
00:56:41Mrs. Mulberry?
00:56:42Yes.
00:56:43We've met.
00:56:44Well, yesterday,
00:56:47Parker demanded that Mrs. Mulberry get her own easel
00:56:50during art, which was fine.
00:56:52But today, it was a desk.
00:56:53And unfortunately, we didn't have an extra desk.
00:56:57Oh.
00:56:58That must have been ugly.
00:57:00It was.
00:57:01Patty was rammed with this.
00:57:07I am so sorry.
00:57:10Mrs. Scumbo,
00:57:11have you experienced a death in your family recently?
00:57:15No.
00:57:16No.
00:57:16Why?
00:57:16Imaginary friends are often created as a coping mechanism
00:57:19to deal with loss.
00:57:21Uh-huh.
00:57:22Or it might occur as a result of some major change
00:57:24or extensive alteration in their lives.
00:57:27Exactly.
00:57:27A manifestation of some deep-seated unhappiness.
00:57:30Can you think of anything that might
00:57:32shed a little bit of light on this for us?
00:57:40Mrs. Scumbo.
00:57:51And I'm thinking it's the Golden Gate Bridge.
00:57:59What a great place to get a picture of the sunset.
00:58:01So I lean out way over the rail to get the shot.
00:58:04Next thing I know,
00:58:05the police arrived.
00:58:06People had called 911 from their cell phones.
00:58:09Thought I was suicidal.
00:58:10I can't believe how well those two are getting along.
00:58:21Yeah, it's freaky.
00:58:22Andrew is being polite and engaging.
00:58:26He's even laughing at George's jokes.
00:58:29That's why it's freaky.
00:58:30George's jokes aren't funny.
00:58:31So George, can I ask you a question?
00:58:36It's kind of personal.
00:58:37Sure.
00:58:39Have you ever actually been with a woman?
00:58:42Excuse me?
00:58:43Well, let's be honest.
00:58:46I think it's obvious by the way that you talk and act that you're not a player.
00:58:50So I was just curious to find out if you had ever actually gotten in the game.
00:58:53My experience with women is none of your business.
00:58:56Well, I think it is.
00:58:57I mean, you're dating my mom.
00:58:59And we both know that at your age, dating is a little more than just holding hands.
00:59:03Okay.
00:59:04We're not dating.
00:59:05Exactly.
00:59:06Oh, sure you are.
00:59:07And you know what?
00:59:08I think it's great.
00:59:09But I want to make sure my mom's happy.
00:59:11You know, and it really set my mind at ease to know that she's with a guy that knows how
00:59:14to please a lady.
00:59:16This is inappropriate.
00:59:17You know, my parents had a great sex life.
00:59:20Yeah, I heard him through the wall in my bedroom once.
00:59:25Please shut up.
00:59:26You should have heard my mom, too.
00:59:28She had this weird moan.
00:59:30It was kind of like, um, mm.
00:59:34Uh.
00:59:36Isn't that bizarre?
00:59:37That's the sound my mom makes when she climaxes.
00:59:42Okay, time for cobbler.
00:59:45Sorry, one of the dessert plates doesn't match.
00:59:47I tried to replace it, but it's Spoh Florence.
00:59:50It's a rare pattern.
00:59:51It belonged to my grandmother, but hopefully once you taste the dessert, you'll forget
00:59:54all about it.
00:59:56I'm not hungry.
00:59:57George, you have to have this.
00:59:58It's absolutely scrumptious.
01:00:04Mmm.
01:00:07Go to your room!
01:00:12George!
01:00:13You heard me.
01:00:14Go to your room.
01:00:15Mr. Williams, what's wrong?
01:00:18Did I say something wrong?
01:00:21Brie, please back me up.
01:00:24Well, what did he say?
01:00:25I can't say.
01:00:26It's too sordid, but he said it!
01:00:30Are you going to back me up or what?
01:00:31George, I can't allow you to discipline my child if you won't even tell me what he did.
01:00:35George!
01:00:35George!
01:00:41George!
01:00:42George!
01:00:42This is Solis, David Bradley.
01:00:57Look, I feel really bad about the tone of our meeting, so to make up for it, I'm going
01:01:01to do you a favor.
01:01:02The more I think of it, the more I'm convinced your marriage is a train wreck.
01:01:05The gnarly type, you know?
01:01:07Mass casualties.
01:01:08Anyway, I'm passing on the name of a great divorce lawyer, Kieran.
01:01:16You have some nerve leaving that message on my machine.
01:01:19You realize this is entirely inappropriate.
01:01:21I will tell you what is inappropriate.
01:01:23You making sweeping assumptions about the state of my marriage.
01:01:26Care for a drink?
01:01:27No.
01:01:28I like to keep a clear head when I'm telling people off.
01:01:31What makes you think you know anything about me or my husband?
01:01:34Well, your husband's record speaks for itself.
01:01:36With you, I had to rely on my instincts.
01:01:39Would those be the same instincts that picked out that cologne?
01:01:41You're privileged.
01:01:43You're pampered.
01:01:45You're spoiled.
01:01:46You want what you want, when you want it.
01:01:48You want excitement.
01:01:50A quickie every five months in a prison trailer isn't going to scratch that itch.
01:01:54With all due respect, I will decide for myself what needs to be scratched and when.
01:01:58Mrs. Solis, you are a beautiful, desirable woman.
01:02:03Your husband is a deemwit, corrupt, violent criminal.
01:02:07You could do so much better.
01:02:10Are you hitting on me?
01:02:12What would you say if I were?
01:02:13I'd say I'm pregnant.
01:02:23So I see you're stuck.
01:02:24I'm not stuck, Mr. Bradley.
01:02:26Believe it or not, I love my husband.
01:02:30I charge $700 an hour.
01:02:32Plus Xeroxing.
01:02:34I'll pay you six and I expect a conjugal visit tomorrow by noon.
01:02:37Aren't you demanding?
01:02:39Like you said, I want what I want when I want it.
01:02:46This woman I talked to at social services said a lot of runaways hang out here.
01:02:51What?
01:02:52Just happy to be spending the day with you.
01:02:55At homeless shelters and bus stations?
01:02:59I'm going to go ask these guys if they've seen Zach.
01:03:02I think we'll cover more ground if we split up.
01:03:04Okay.
01:03:08Thanks.
01:03:17Have you seen this boy?
01:03:20Mr. Kidd, anyone?
01:03:22Run once.
01:03:23Run twice.
01:03:30Oh.
01:03:31Do you mind keeping those and pass them out when people get their ice cream?
01:03:36Huh.
01:03:36What?
01:03:38Well, isn't that him?
01:03:39Over there.
01:03:42Oh.
01:03:43Zach?
01:03:45Zach!
01:03:46Oh, no, no, no, no.
01:03:47No, no, no, no, no, no.
01:03:49Don't, don't, don't, don't.
01:03:50Zach, don't.
01:03:51Don't, Zach, don't run away.
01:03:53Wait.
01:03:54Come on.
01:03:55Just let you get back here.
01:03:57Come on, really.
01:03:58Let's just talk.
01:04:01Dammit, Zach.
01:04:03It's enough already.
01:04:04Nobody here has seen Zach.
01:04:16There's a halfway house on the west side I want to check out.
01:04:21Are you okay?
01:04:26I got you some ice cream.
01:04:28You did?
01:04:29But then I got hungry.
01:04:34So then I just threw my ice cream at him and ran.
01:04:41Somebody say something.
01:04:42Thank God you were in flats.
01:04:44I'm still recovering from Mike as Zach's real father.
01:04:47I should have told Mike I saw Zach.
01:04:50I'm a horrible person, right?
01:04:52Oh, Susan, come on.
01:04:53Zach attacked Felicia.
01:04:54He blew up your kitchen.
01:04:56Evidently, he tried to kill Mike.
01:04:57I think we can all agree this kid's a freak.
01:05:04What do you think, Brie?
01:05:05Well, I think given everything that's happened, it's perfectly justified that you'd be frightened
01:05:12of Zach.
01:05:16But...
01:05:17But Zach is Mary Alice's son.
01:05:20He grew up playing in our yards.
01:05:22If he has any hope of surviving, I have to believe he's better off here than on the streets.
01:05:27I couldn't have imagined how much going back to work would upset Parker.
01:05:37Look, he's going to be fine.
01:05:39You've just got to get used to Daddy providing all the love.
01:05:43I'm kidding.
01:05:44I'm kidding.
01:05:45I am kidding.
01:05:46Look, kids are resilient.
01:05:47He will adapt.
01:05:48Tom, he attacked a teacher with an umbrella.
01:05:50It was a poke.
01:05:51He poked her.
01:05:52I don't know.
01:05:53Maybe I shouldn't be working.
01:05:55Kids would certainly benefit from having two stay-at-home parents, although buying food
01:05:59might become an issue.
01:06:00Maybe I could change my work schedule, try and get some flex time.
01:06:03Would Nina go for that?
01:06:05No.
01:06:07No.
01:06:08No.
01:06:08No.
01:06:09No.
01:06:09No.
01:06:09No.
01:06:11It would help if you came up with some ideas.
01:06:15How about hugs?
01:06:16Hugs?
01:06:17Yeah, I read in one of those family magazines that kids are supposed to get like 10 hugs a
01:06:20day.
01:06:20It makes them feel more secure.
01:06:22I say pile on the hugs.
01:06:23That'll fix everything.
01:06:25Hugs?
01:06:25Yeah.
01:06:27Come here.
01:06:30Come here.
01:06:32Hi.
01:06:35Hi.
01:06:38It's working, isn't it?
01:06:39Shut up.
01:06:50Hey, buddy.
01:06:52You busy?
01:06:53Yes.
01:06:54This is more than you're reading to me.
01:06:56Well, isn't she nice?
01:06:57But it's time for bed, so I'm going to tuck you in, okay?
01:07:00Like that.
01:07:02No!
01:07:02No!
01:07:02I know things have been hard for you since I started back to work, but it is just as
01:07:16hard for me to be away from you.
01:07:17And you just have to remember that even when I'm not around, my love for you is real.
01:07:24You may not be able to see it, but it's not imaginary like Mrs. Mulberry.
01:07:30It's real.
01:07:33Okay, honey?
01:07:34Mrs. Mulberry is real.
01:07:37And she said you're a liar.
01:07:40Parker?
01:07:46Parker.
01:07:47I don't understand.
01:08:01Why can't we see each other anymore?
01:08:03Because ever since I found out what Andrew said to you, I've been doing some soul-searching,
01:08:07and I realize that everything that's happened is completely my fault.
01:08:11Mama, that's ridiculous.
01:08:12No, it's not.
01:08:14All the things that Andrew's been saying and the way he's been acting, it's all connected
01:08:18to his father's death.
01:08:19And it's clear to me that I need to spend more time focusing on him and his needs.
01:08:24You know, you're right.
01:08:27You do need to focus on Andrew.
01:08:29Thank you, George, for being so understanding.
01:08:32Of course.
01:08:36So, have you thought about counseling?
01:08:39That place you sent him to, that behavioral modification camp, he got counseling there,
01:08:44right?
01:08:44But I only sent him there because his behavior at the time was so completely out of bounds.
01:08:50You don't think that what he said to me was out of bounds?
01:08:53I just think if I spend a lot of time with him, it'll really help.
01:08:56Why not do both?
01:08:58Let him spend a few months with some caring professionals and then bring him home.
01:09:00You know, what he said to you was horribly rude, but that camp, it's extreme.
01:09:05And, I mean, unless I felt like Andrew was getting really out of control, then...
01:09:11Well, let's hope it doesn't come to that.
01:09:17You know, in spite of everything that's happened, I really like Andrew.
01:09:21Oh, George, really?
01:09:22Yeah, the truth is, he reminds me of me.
01:09:30Conjugal visit rules are you got 45 minutes.
01:09:32We call every 15 minutes to make sure you're still here.
01:09:34You understand?
01:09:35Yes, we got it.
01:09:36Uh, we interrupt our lovemaking to answer the phone or you call out the dogs.
01:09:40Okay.
01:09:41I'm ready whenever you obviously are.
01:09:45Carlos, are we going to make it?
01:09:58We just did.
01:10:00You want to go again?
01:10:01No, talking about us, our relationship, our marriage.
01:10:09Carlos, you're going to be a father.
01:10:12And when you get out of here, you're going to need to get a job and make an honest living for me and our child.
01:10:17Babe, I've learned my lesson.
01:10:19Okay, when I get out of here, everything's going to be different.
01:10:23We're going to start over with a new life and a great family.
01:10:26And nothing is going to get in the way of that.
01:10:35Hey, so you never told me.
01:10:38How's the new lawyer?
01:10:39You like him?
01:10:42Phone rings
01:10:43Yeah.
01:10:48Yeah, I'm still here.
01:10:49Okay, enough to chat.
01:10:55We only have 30 minutes left.
01:10:57And I want to make the most of it.
01:11:13Okay, please don't run.
01:11:15I can't.
01:11:15I hurt my foot.
01:11:17How?
01:11:17I landed on it funny when I was running away from you.
01:11:23What do you want?
01:11:24To talk to you.
01:11:25Why?
01:11:26Because I have a lot of things to say.
01:11:28So you can just listen.
01:11:29I'll buy you some food.
01:11:32When was the last time you ate?
01:11:40My dad's alive?
01:11:41Where is he?
01:11:42I don't know.
01:11:43He disappeared.
01:11:45But Mike did not kill him.
01:11:46No, he's alive.
01:11:47You swear.
01:11:47I swear.
01:11:48Maybe he's in Utah.
01:11:50I know that he used to have a life there.
01:11:53Before me.
01:11:54I don't know.
01:11:55I just need to get some money.
01:11:57And find him.
01:11:57Zach, you know what I think?
01:11:59I think you should come back with me.
01:12:01Why?
01:12:02Because there are still people at home that care about you.
01:12:04And there's things that you need to know.
01:12:07Like what?
01:12:07Well, I can't tell you.
01:12:11You know, you messed up a lot of people's lives, Zach.
01:12:13You can't run away from that.
01:12:15Do you mean Julie?
01:12:16Julie?
01:12:17What?
01:12:21I know that I messed up her life, but I didn't mean to.
01:12:25I really miss her out here.
01:12:28I think about her all the time.
01:12:30Yeah, well, Julie's a really special girl.
01:12:33Has she said anything about me?
01:12:35Because if she has, then I might still have a chance with her.
01:12:39If I come back with you, then I can make it up to her.
01:12:41Do you know what I think?
01:12:49I think you were right.
01:12:51I think you should try to find your father first.
01:12:55Yeah?
01:12:55Yeah.
01:12:58Now that you know he's okay, you should go to him.
01:13:02He'll want to take care of you.
01:13:05That's what parents do.
01:13:10Let me help.
01:13:11How much money do you think you'll need to get to Utah?
01:13:41Daddy!
01:13:43I can't find Mrs. Mova Isabella!
01:13:47What is it?
01:13:49I don't know, Sport.
01:13:51Honey, have you seen the movie?
01:13:53I can't find Mrs. Mova Isabella.
01:13:55What is it?
01:13:57Daddy!
01:13:58I can't find Mrs. Mova Isabella.
01:13:59What is it?
01:14:00Oh, I don't know, Sport.
01:14:01Honey, have you seen the umbrella?
01:14:02No.
01:14:03Can't say that I have.
01:14:04Okay, listen.
01:14:05Don't worry about it.
01:14:06I'm sure Mrs. Mova Isabella is around here somewhere.
01:14:08Or, uh...
01:14:09Maybe she's not.
01:14:10She could have left.
01:14:11You know, maybe she had some other little boy that she needed to help.
01:14:13Like who?
01:14:14I don't know.
01:14:15I don't know.
01:14:16It could be a little boy in England named Spencer.
01:14:21Lynette?
01:14:22Lynette?
01:14:23Lynette?
01:14:24I mean, this is conjecture on my part, but it is possible that someone like little Spencer
01:14:28needs Mrs. Mulberry more, because he doesn't have a son of a son of a son of a son of a son of a son of a son of a son of a son of a son of a son of a son.
01:14:34Lynette?
01:14:35Lynette?
01:14:36Lynette?
01:14:37I mean, this is conjecture on my part, but it is possible that someone like little Spencer needs Mrs. Mulberry more, because he doesn't have a daddy.
01:14:51And a mommy who love him.
01:14:54Yeah, that's it.
01:14:55He's an orphan.
01:14:57With no hands.
01:15:00Okay?
01:15:01You're so sweet.
01:15:04Come here.
01:15:05I love you.
01:15:06You all right?
01:15:07Okay.
01:15:08Go get dressed.
01:15:09What have you done to Mrs. Mulberry?
01:15:11Until there's a body, there's no evidence of a crime.
01:15:18Mrs. Mulberry!
01:15:20She's back!
01:15:22Oh!
01:15:23Goody!
01:15:24Mrs. Mulberry's back!
01:15:31Is Mary Woods-
01:15:44Oh!
01:15:45She got ran over, she's dead.
01:15:46Don't you worry.
01:15:47I'm here.
01:15:48Maybe it's okay, buddy.
01:15:49Maybe we can call 911, or...
01:15:50No!
01:15:51No, Tom.
01:15:52She's gone.
01:15:55She's no longer going.
01:15:57She was afraid of her.
01:15:58She shits the prospect.
01:15:59She's done, he's gone.
01:16:00George, what are you doing here?
01:16:16Don't worry, Brie. I'll be quick.
01:16:18I thought about what you said, and you're right.
01:16:20Andrew needs his space.
01:16:22Thank you, George.
01:16:24It's best that I stay away.
01:16:26And I completely understand if you want to change pharmacists,
01:16:29but I did want to give you a little goodbye gift.
01:16:41George, it's my cutter. Where did you find it?
01:16:44I got lucky on an online auction.
01:16:49I love it. Thank you.
01:16:53George.
01:16:53George. George. George.
01:17:08Andrew, what are you doing?
01:17:13Andrew!
01:17:13Andrew!
01:17:13Andrew!
01:17:13Andrew!
01:17:13You're crazy!
01:17:15Did you see him? He was kissing her!
01:17:25Oh, my God, you're bleeding.
01:17:27That freak was kissing her!
01:17:28I don't care. You've got to calm down now.
01:17:30The world is filled with good fathers.
01:17:47How do we recognize them?
01:17:49They're the ones who were missed so terribly
01:17:52that everything falls apart in their absence.
01:17:55They're the ones who love us long before we've even arrived.
01:18:07They're the ones who come looking for us
01:18:11when we can't find our way home.
01:18:14Hey, what's wrong?
01:18:24Because of me,
01:18:26my son's imaginary friend got crushed by a garbage truck.
01:18:34I am the worst person in the world.
01:18:38Yes, the world is filled with good fathers.
01:18:41Honey, he is going to get over this in no time.
01:18:45Trust me.
01:18:46And one day, when he is all growing up,
01:18:49you and Parker are going to laugh hysterically about this.
01:18:53You really think so? Really?
01:18:55And the best are the ones who make the women in their lives.
01:19:00I promise.
01:19:02Feel like good mothers.
01:19:04And the best are the ones who make the women in their lives.
01:19:08And the best are the ones who make the women in their lives.
01:19:10And the best are the ones who make the women in their lives.
01:19:11And the best are the ones who make the women in their lives.
