00:00:01Previously on Desperate Housewives...
00:00:04He's in your band. This is too dangerous.
00:00:06There were victims of both violence and hard times.
00:00:11We're sort of broke.
00:00:12I thought Scott Lewis was doing well.
00:00:13When times get tough, people do without things like pizza.
00:00:16And beneficiaries...
00:00:18The deal closed. I got the bonus.
00:00:19...of good work and perseverance.
00:00:22Congratulations on your new job.
00:00:23Congratulations on getting me out of your office.
00:00:30It's not hard to spot a mother who works outside the home.
00:00:36Just look for someone who dresses in a hurry...
00:00:40...eats her breakfast while rushing to her car...
00:00:44...and applies her makeup as she drives away.
00:00:48But the surest way to spot a mother who works outside the home...
00:00:52...just look for a child.
00:00:55MJ, why aren't you dressed? We're going to be late for our first day of school.
00:00:58...who gets sick at the worst possible moment.
00:01:03Hey, guys. How you doing?
00:01:08He's sick. I'm late. Thanks for helping.
00:01:10Whoa, whoa, whoa. I gotta work.
00:01:12So do I. And it's my first day at a new job. I win.
00:01:15Look, I'd really like to help you out.
00:01:17And spend some time with my best bud.
00:01:19But Mrs. Nelson's septic tank is expecting me at 9.
00:01:22You're a plumber. Mrs. Nelson is not expecting you on time.
00:01:25In fact, if you show up before dinner, she'll turn cartwheels.
00:01:28I'm a teacher. It's different.
00:01:30Boy, I thought you were just a teacher's assistant.
00:01:33Well...
00:01:38Listen to me. The reason I went back to work is so we could both afford to give MJ the things we felt he needed.
00:01:43Now I'm doing my part. It's time you do yours.
00:01:52I'll reschedule Mrs. Nelson.
00:01:58I gotta go. You get lots of rest and drink plenty of fluids, okay?
00:02:01You never left me when I was sick before.
00:02:04Oh, I know, honey. But Mommy has a job now.
00:02:09Come on, we talked about this. You understand, right?
00:02:13Don't be sad. I am gonna pick you both up at six.
00:02:19Yes, it's not hard to spot a woman who works outside the home.
00:02:24Just look for a woman who leaves her house every morning feeling incredibly guilty.
00:02:43It begins just after sundown.
00:02:46After a long day at the office, exhausted people start coming home.
00:02:51Some are met by faithful pets.
00:02:56Some are welcomed with dry martinis.
00:03:00Others are greeted with dinner on the table.
00:03:04Then there are those who return from a long day at work only to discover unpleasant surprises.
00:03:19Ah! Good, you got mine out. Come on in.
00:03:26Oh, okay, sure. Where's MJ?
00:03:29Here I am, Mommy.
00:03:31Oh, hey, baby. How's my boy? I missed you so much.
00:03:36Are you feeling better?
00:03:38Yeah. Catherine made me soup and read me a story and showed me how to play blackjack.
00:03:44What are you gonna remember?
00:03:48Always double down on a pair of races.
00:03:51That's cute. Where's Mike?
00:03:55Plumbing emergency. Mrs. Nelson's toilet began erupting and I wasn't busy, so...
00:04:00Uh-huh. Well, thank you very much for helping us out. Come on MJ, it's time to go.
00:04:12We already thanked your buddy. Let's not make her uncomfortable.
00:04:20Thank you for having us over. We are so honored to be the first guests in your new home.
00:04:28Your stunning new home. I can't believe this. The theme of my first place was early American beanbag.
00:04:35Well, it's all Andrew. He's the one with the taste. Please.
00:04:39Uh, he's running late. Do you know why?
00:04:42He's cleaning up a little mess. Someone didn't know you couldn't serve bacon-wrapped shrimp puffs at a bar mitzvah.
00:04:48I knew. I just thought if they tasted mine, they might change the rules.
00:04:52So, would you like something to nibble on before dinner?
00:04:56Is that cut crystal? It's exquisite.
00:05:00Andrew again. He's got expensive taste. Thank God he brings in the big bucks.
00:05:05He does?
00:05:06Well, he does now ever since you gave him that raise.
00:05:10This is a delicious snack. Did you make this?
00:05:14Uh, yeah. It's just party mix.
00:05:19You give Andrew a raise?
00:05:20A tiny salary bump.
00:05:22Tiny is not the word for your extraordinary generosity.
00:05:27Oh, look. There's pretzels and cereal. I can see why they call it party mix. It's like a party in a bowl.
00:05:33When you say extraordinary...
00:05:36He's exaggerating. They're children. It just looks like a lot of money to them.
00:05:42My God. Is this a... a 96 Latour?
00:05:46I know. Andrew bought a case of it at a wine auction to celebrate that huge raise.
00:05:52Once you've had a few glasses of this, you're not going to remember this evening at all.
00:05:58We'll see.
00:05:59Boy, dinner without the kids. It's nice to eat without having macaroni thrown at you.
00:06:07Well, we really wanted to find a way to thank you both.
00:06:11Thank us for what?
00:06:13Saving our marriage. Please, it was our pleasure.
00:06:16How did we do that again?
00:06:18Well, Bradley had been working around the clock and I was feeling neglected.
00:06:20But things are different now that he has Carlos. We have never felt closer.
00:06:25And, Gabby, I know I've been relying on Carlos a lot. I hope it's not a problem his being away from home so much.
00:06:30Oh, I'll be more willing to forgive once his bonus check comes in.
00:06:33The only person more excited than Gabby about that bonus is her jeweler.
00:06:37Brad, Don, it's been such a nice night.
00:06:41He's going to hear it tomorrow anyway.
00:06:43Hear what?
00:06:45Look, I'm sorry, but we're foregoing bonuses this year.
00:06:48Can I get anyone dessert?
00:06:51Beat it. What?
00:06:52It's the economy. Our CFO feels we need to do some belt tightening.
00:06:55But do you know how much overtime Carlos has pulled? How many trips he's taken? He's killed himself. For God's sakes, don't do this to my jeweler.
00:07:05But, Gabby, no one's getting a bonus. Not even Brad.
00:07:08So this was his bonus? A salad and a stuffed chicken breast?
00:07:12Hopefully next year will be better.
00:07:16We're ready for dessert now. Wrap up ten lobsters to go.
00:07:26Tom.
00:07:30We haven't had a customer in about half an hour, so maybe we should just close up early.
00:07:41Nope. I got an idea.
00:07:43Hey, everybody, take off your aprons and come sit near the window.
00:07:47What is this?
00:07:48It's called psychology.
00:07:50Come on. Hey.
00:07:51Hey. Yes.
00:07:53Nobody wants to eat in an empty restaurant, right?
00:07:56So, guys, this is what we are going to do.
00:07:59As soon as you see someone go by, you laugh. Act like you're having a great time. It'll draw them in.
00:08:05So now we have pretend customers?
00:08:07Gee, let's think of something to do with all the pretend money we're going to make.
00:08:10Trust me. This is going to work.
00:08:12Okay, hey, you guys, you're a group of old high school buddies. You haven't seen each other since the big game.
00:08:16And you two, you're on a hot date, okay?
00:08:20All right, hey, look, there's somebody. Laugh. Have a great time.
00:08:27Awesome. Just like that.
00:08:30Okay.
00:08:33Much as I love Tommy Scalvo's improv theater, we need to face some facts here.
00:08:37It's a slump. We'll ride it out. We've done it before.
00:08:39It's not a slump. In this economy, people aren't eating out as much. Between that and Porter's legal bills and paying Brie back, we are about a week away from going bankrupt.
00:08:50Honey, please, have a little faith.
00:08:53I did. For seven years. Now I'm going to be a realist and I need you to be one, too.
00:08:57Okay, I understand. You're worried. I am, too.
00:09:01Well, we can make it. We just have to be creative.
00:09:04If we sell this place now, we can escape with some dignity and maybe even some money.
00:09:08But if we keep on going like we are, we're going to lose everything.
00:09:12No.
00:09:16No.
00:09:18I am not going out like this.
00:09:20I am not going to be a failure.
00:09:26Please tell me they just saw a customer.
00:09:31So, with all the calories we just burned, I'd say we deserve a huge lunch at a fancy restaurant.
00:09:37You do like to live well, honey.
00:09:39Well, why not? Life is brief and mostly sucks.
00:09:42Got to grab all the good you can while you're on this side of the dirt.
00:09:45That was very poetic. But sure, we'll go any place you want.
00:09:50Mmm. That was easy.
00:09:52Well, since I'm on a roll, how about this?
00:09:54Let's go away this weekend. Pick a five-star hotel with a great spa and just lip it up.
00:10:00I don't know about that. I've got a lot of stuff I need to do.
00:10:03Oh, come on.
00:10:05Big fluffy robes, lung massages.
00:10:11Did you hear that?
00:10:13That buzzing?
00:10:16No, I don't hear anything. Oh, maybe it's...
00:10:18Shh. I hear it up here sometimes.
00:10:26What the hell is it?
00:10:28Hey, you know what?
00:10:30I kind of like that hotel idea.
00:10:33Really?
00:10:34Yeah. You were right. Life is brief.
00:10:37Why don't you go call the travel agent and see what's available?
00:10:40You know, you're kind of sexy when you buckle.
00:10:41I'm going to call right now.
00:10:48What?
00:10:50Dr. Hadler, listen, I got your latest text, but you know, it's been a few weeks now and people are freaking out about you being gone so long.
00:10:55So now there's a staff meeting on the 15th, and if you're not back by then, I'm just going to have to tell people that I don't know where you are. So will you please just call me?
00:11:01Oh.
00:11:04Hey, Mike. How's it going?
00:11:06are freaking out about you being gone so long.
00:11:08So now there's a staff meeting on the 15th,
00:11:10and if you're not back by then, I'm just
00:11:12going to have to tell people that I don't know where you are.
00:11:14So will you please just call me?
00:11:22Hey, Mike.
00:11:23How's it going?
00:11:25Well, so far, I've broken off three
00:11:26of these stupid plastic sprinkler heads.
00:11:28But other than that, I'm great.
00:11:29Oh, good.
00:11:30Look, I was coming over to ask, what would you and Catherine
00:11:33think about going camping?
00:11:34Oh, man, I love camping.
00:11:35When?
00:11:36Well, my schedule gets busy on the 15th,
00:11:38so it would have to be before then.
00:11:40I don't know.
00:11:41This weekend?
00:11:42I'm definitely up for it.
00:11:44I'm not sure Catherine will be.
00:11:45Well, if she doesn't go, then Edie won't go.
00:11:48Well, I guess if Catherine knows another girl is coming,
00:11:49maybe I can convince her.
00:11:51Good.
00:11:52Tell the menfolk we'll do all the hard work.
00:11:54Fill the fires, dig the latrines.
00:11:55Hey, I wouldn't mention that latrine part
00:11:57until we're actually at the campsite.
00:11:59That's a good point.
00:12:02I'll dig my gear out tonight.
00:12:04It's going to be fun.
00:12:05Yeah.
00:12:07This is going to be fun.
00:12:13Oh, that's a beautiful pen.
00:12:14Is it a Mont Blanc?
00:12:16Yeah.
00:12:16Yeah, I've always wanted one.
00:12:17Huh.
00:12:19Well, I guess you can afford it now with your new raise.
00:12:22Oh, you heard about that?
00:12:24Sure did.
00:12:25Well, the Chamber of Commerce just called.
00:12:27They've added 40 people to their guest list.
00:12:29Damn it.
00:12:30I only planned for 100.
00:12:31We're going to need more tables.
00:12:33Relax.
00:12:34They always pull this crap.
00:12:35So I called the rental company, had them put a few extras on the truck.
00:12:38We'll be fine.
00:12:39Thank God.
00:12:40Well, you know what?
00:12:41We can tell the Chamber people that because it was so last minute, we had to bump our fee
00:12:44by 30%.
00:12:44I like the way you think.
00:12:46Oh.
00:12:47What would we do without him?
00:12:49Mm-hmm.
00:12:50Yes.
00:12:51He's worth every penny you pay him.
00:12:53By the way, how many pennies is that?
00:12:56I'm not discussing Andrew's salary with you.
00:12:59It's none of your business.
00:13:00You're right.
00:13:01It's not.
00:13:02So, how much?
00:13:03Andrew moved into a new home.
00:13:04I simply gave him a cost of living increase.
00:13:07The cost of living in a home with silver pens and rare French wines?
00:13:12Honey, please don't do this.
00:13:14Oh, my God.
00:13:15Is he making more than me?
00:13:17Orson, drop it.
00:13:18I'm not telling you how much Andrew makes.
00:13:24I'd be happy to give you that information, sir.
00:13:27Am I speaking to the account holder?
00:13:29No, I'm her business partner.
00:13:32Very well.
00:13:33Account number?
00:13:34Yes.
00:13:35Uh, 85973.
00:13:38Name on the account?
00:13:40Vandercamp's Old Fashioned Fruits.
00:13:43And password.
00:13:44Password?
00:13:46For security purposes.
00:13:48Um, oh, yes, of course.
00:13:51It's, um, you know, it's completely slipped my mind.
00:13:57It's the name of her childhood pet.
00:14:00Oh, right.
00:14:02Uh, Fluffy.
00:14:05Nope.
00:14:06That's not it.
00:14:07Fido?
00:14:08No.
00:14:09Spot.
00:14:10Rover.
00:14:11Mittens.
00:14:12Sorry, sir.
00:14:13Uh, Marmaduke.
00:14:15Old Yeller.
00:14:16I cannot give out any information without the password.
00:14:19Which you obviously don't know.
00:14:21Then ask me a different question.
00:14:22How about her date of birth?
00:14:24Her social security number?
00:14:25Goodbye, sir.
00:14:26How about her real hair color?
00:14:28Trust me, it's not what you think it is.
00:14:36If you're looking to get fed, it's gonna be a while.
00:14:38No, Dad called a family meeting.
00:14:40Yeah, Mom, he said it's about the restaurant.
00:14:42Oh, boy, I think I know what this is about.
00:14:48Listen, kids.
00:14:49Things have been tough down at the restaurant,
00:14:52and I think your dad has finally decided to sell it.
00:14:57Wow.
00:14:58I don't know.
00:14:59Is he gonna be okay?
00:15:00I don't know.
00:15:01That's why we all have to be really supportive.
00:15:02Are you with me?
00:15:03Hey, guys.
00:15:04Good.
00:15:05You're all here.

00:37:09your blackjack you're trying to do everything you can to make him think that you're the other mommy
00:37:14what you're trying to get your hooks deeper into mike by showing him how much his son loves you
00:37:20susan i am being nice to the child of the man i'm dating how does it make me evil no not evil devious
00:37:27well you know i hate to tell you but your big plan is not going to work because from now on mj's either
00:37:31at my house or mike's he is no longer allowed to be here yeah uh that's going to be tricky well
00:37:38that's the way it's going to be whether you like it or not no it's going to be tricky because mike's
00:37:42moving in here what first of the month he's giving up his place and moving in with me
00:37:49so mj is going to be spending a lot of time here whether you like it or not
00:38:03oh orson glad you're here i was doing a recount of the goblets for the hopkins wedding reception
00:38:08and we're short by about 30 so i have to run over the supplier and pick up the rest could you
00:38:12hold down the fort for me sure no problem thanks hey you know andrew it never would have occurred to
00:38:19me to do a recount of the goblets for he's lucky to have someone as conscientious as you working here
00:38:25wow thank you orson that that means a lot to me
00:38:42it begins just after sunrise after a good night's sleep people leave their homes to go to work
00:38:58they do this so they can provide a better life for their families
00:39:04so they can afford nice things
00:39:06and have a reason to get up in the morning
00:39:16and when their exhausting work is done people come back home again
00:39:23and some begin counting the days till their next vacation
00:39:29previously on desperate housewives dave got caught you changed your name and you're living in fair
00:39:39view it's not healthy or safe gabby got leverage i'm getting that bonus after all so brad what sort
00:39:45of bonus are we looking at katherine dropped a bomb mike's moving in here what tom called it quits
00:39:52we're gonna sell this place we should probably know exactly how much it's worth and brie got honest
00:39:57you're paid based on your contribution you're saying i'm worthless no i'm just saying you're worth
00:40:02which resulted in some strange behavior
00:40:12everyone who met orson hodge knew he believed in being polite
00:40:18he greeted his neighbors each day with a sunny good morning
00:40:21he opened doors for young women with a gallant allow me
00:40:30if he bumped into a stranger on the street oh he'd cheerfully say i beg your pardon
00:40:36and if one of his friends was having a hard time orson was the first to say
00:40:42you need some help there whether his friend wanted his help or not orson what are you doing here
00:40:49well i heard about your going out of business sale and i am thought you could use a hand
00:40:53i'm good thanks
00:40:58oh this is charming oh this cell shaker my grandfather gave me used to display it on the shelf
00:41:05how much you want for it it's not for sale everything in that box of stuff i'm taking with me
00:41:11oh okay just trying to help out i know it's a difficult day and i think i of all people understand
00:41:20what it is you're going through why you of all people well i know what it's like to have your
00:41:26livelihood suddenly vanish remember i used to be a dentist oh right
00:41:31right of course it's not really the same is it what's not my business started going south because
00:41:41of a bad economy it got worse when my son was accused of a crime that he didn't commit but you
00:41:46lost your license because you went to prison for a crime you did commit why are you being this way
00:41:53because what's happening to me is unfair what happened to you was justice yeah and to compare my
00:41:59situation with yours on a day like this well i gotta tell you it's a little insulting then i apologize
00:42:07my intention was never to insult you i wanted to support you in your in your hour of need
00:42:14um vultures are starting to arrive i'll leave you to it then
00:42:20yes everyone who met orson hodge knew he believed in being polite
00:42:25what they didn't know is that he also believed in punishing those who weren't
00:42:45the day after mike delfino moved in with katherine mayfair she thought it would be nice to share her
00:42:52happiness so she decided to throw a housewarming party for her friends and neighbors
00:43:01but from the moment the first invitation was delivered her friends began making assumptions
00:43:09about those who had been invited and about those who hadn't i know it's late notice but i do hope you'll
00:43:17all be able to make it now does this really mean no gifts or is it like when gabby says no gifts and
00:43:22she means no cheap gifts you know katherine if you need any help i would be happy to make my

00:44:08were going to live together well yes i was upset at first but you know mike was going to be with
00:44:13someone eventually and i consider myself lucky that it was someone who after all said and done
00:44:19has always been my true friend susan was very sweet and admirable and abnormal
00:44:26hey gab you remember when i was with carlos shut it bitch see that's normal

01:01:52so why am i the only bad guy here let me ask you something okay didn't it give you just the
01:02:04tiniest little thrill to tell me that that painting that i was so happy about was yours that i had

01:03:33sold it at a handsome profit so he's waiting for the right opportunity you might have to do a little
01:03:39selling here bruce huh i guess the good ones are always the hardest to land yeah let me give it a shot
01:03:47we represent a small stable of elite non-fiction authors from all over the world so you'd be working

01:03:59amazing i don't know are there more potatoes you can have mine stop saying i don't know
01:04:11sounds like there's a lot of travel and i'm not really big on living out of a suitcase

01:06:00bruce i was just saying to lynette i gave you my i don't really care about this job thing to see
01:06:07if you really care about this job and you do and i like that clever now we haven't talked compensation
01:06:15package yet but i got a good feeling you know tom you're right bruce does care about this job that's
01:06:20why he wants to make sure he gets the perfect person for it well lynette you yourself said i was the best
01:06:27oh you were and you were the best person who ever worked for me used to be his boss
01:06:32this is not what i had in mind i don't know why either one of them wants to work for that jackass
01:06:41now now he's been very good to me well of course he has because he knows you make him a lot of money
01:06:46me on the other hand he sees as an insignificant little man barely worth mentioning as he talks into
01:06:51his annoying penis shaped tape recorder so i said to him je crois que c'est l'homme qui fait
01:06:58l'homme great story i assume i don't speak another language but i've had at campaigns translated into
01:07:1312 different ones including professor crispy's potato chips i love that campaign you did that i did yes

01:07:29boss is kind of a ball buster oops she's right here she'll regret oh would anyone care for something sweet
01:07:40well we've all had our troubles as bosses haven't we tom i was sort of sugarcoating it when i said
01:07:55his restaurant was very successful the truth is he mismanaged that pizza joint right into the ground
01:08:03let me be very clear i think lynette is fantastic she is a great manager she's got terrific people skills
01:08:10and is very reliable as long as the cancer doesn't flare up again you know what it's getting late i
01:08:24should probably hit the road but what about the job yeah i just started looking i'm sure it's gonna be a
01:08:33long process but trust me you've certainly made an impression i'll get your coat

01:18:14they're the ones who will give a friendly wave even when they've stolen from you
01:18:25they're the type to sweetly welcome you even as they try to uncover your secrets
01:18:35they're the kind to offer you coffee even as they report you to the police
01:18:46and don't be too offended by someone who's openly rude
01:18:52because they may be that way for the nicest of reasons
