00:01Previously on Desperate Housewives, Lynette confronted Tom's new girlfriend.
00:05You think maybe you could stop trying to take my husband away from me?
00:08You think I'm gonna give up on him just because you can't accept your marriage is over?
00:11Hey, Mike!
00:12Ben found out about Mike's past.
00:14Ex-con?
00:15And hired him.
00:16I can definitely use you.
00:18Bree showed Gabby the threatening note.
00:21I'm sorry to burden you with this. Why did you have to tell me?
00:24And then she discovered the location of Ben's new development.
00:27We're digging up the body?
00:29The body?
00:30Ben's bulldozers start tearing up the woods tomorrow morning.
00:32Where are Carlos and Susan?
00:33I didn't want to freak them out.
00:34And Susan has done nothing but freak out, so it's just us.
00:37But when they got there, they found someone had beaten them to it.
00:48No matter what the circumstances, Bree Vandekamp always found a way to stay in control.
00:54She curved her impulses.
00:58She enforced a strict dress code.
01:03She maintained a strong moral center.
01:09Yes, Bree was always in control.
01:14So when it came to handling a crisis.
01:17This is a nightmare.
01:18What are we going to do?
01:20It made perfect sense that she was in the driver's seat.
01:24Yeah.
01:25I mean, I can't believe the worst thing that happened tonight was not getting to move a dead body.
01:29Ladies, please. I need to hear myself think.
01:31Oh, my God. What if he's alive?
01:33Right, and after a two-month dirt nap, he clawed his way out.
01:37No, someone must have dug him out.
01:39But what if it was the cops?
01:41No, I can't go to jail.
01:43What, and we can?
01:44Yes. You'll start a gang, Bree. You'll work in the kitchen.
01:47I'm the smallest one. I am so ending up somebody's bitch.
01:50Shh. It wasn't the police.
01:52They would have treated it like a crime scene, and that awful yellow tape would have been everywhere.
01:56Okay, then. Think about this, Bree. What if it's someone who knows what we did, and it made them sick, and now they're going to tell?
02:05Why is she talking like that?
02:07Gabby is engaging in wild speculation, which isn't at all productive.
02:11There has to be a simple explanation.
02:14We just need to take a deep breath and think, and the answer will be right in front of us.
02:19Susan.
02:28Oh, my God. Of course.
02:30Why would Susan move the body?
02:32Because she's cuckoo crazy. She's been flipping out ever since we buried the guy.
02:35Okay, then. What if it was her? What do we do?
02:38We march over, and we ask if she did it. And if she did, I know an empty grave that's going to waste.
02:43But if she didn't, then we just admitted that we went to the woods without her. Imagine what cuckoo will do with that.
02:48Clearly, we have to be diplomatic. Crafty. We'll ask indirect questions, scan her house for clues. We'll gather information without arousing suspicion.
03:02Okay, Bree. Well, it seems like you got a good handle on this.
03:05Definitely. Let us know how it goes.
03:09Yes. When it came to a crisis, everyone was happy to have Bree in the driver's seat.
03:15Fine. I'll talk to Susan.
03:18Even if Bree herself would have preferred to be a passenger.
03:22As the mother of five, Lynette Scavo was used to uncomfortable questions.
03:38Why are you eating Santa's cookies?
03:45What happened to my goldfish?
03:47Why were you and Daddy making funny noises last night?
03:53Yes. After five children, Lynette thought she'd heard it all.
03:59Until there was one question.
04:04Are Dad and Jane going to get married?
04:06She never saw coming.
04:08Why would you ask that?
04:09I don't know. They're spending a lot of time together and...
04:14It's okay. You can say it.
04:16They seem really happy.
04:18You told her to say it.
04:21Honey, just because people are happy and spend time together doesn't mean they're going to get married.
04:25I mean, your Aunt Renee and I spend time together.
04:28And we're not getting married until your mom makes a lot more money.
04:33I'll get it.
04:34Yeah.
04:35Hey, you all ready to see Wicked?
04:38Hello, Lynette.
04:39Hello.
04:40Oh, my God. Look at your hair.
04:42We're twins.
04:43Yes, you are.
04:46Penny, where did you learn to do that?
04:48Jane taught me.
04:49Oh, it's easy. I can teach you, too.
04:51Oh.
04:52I know how to do it.
04:53Okay. We should go. We might not be home until 11.
04:57On a school night?
04:58It's my fault. I went to high school with the Wicked Witch and she invited us backstage.
05:02Is that okay?
05:04Oh, my God. Can I, Mom?
05:08What can I say? Since you asked me in front of Penny.
05:14Let's go, Zuzu.
05:16Bye.
05:18Zuzu.
05:23Yeah, she's got a cute nickname for Penny.
05:26I bet she's got one for you, too.
05:29Doormat.
05:31What?
05:32It's bad enough she stole your husband.
05:33And now you're letting her take your daughter, too?
05:35What am I supposed to do? I'm not gonna drag Penny into the middle of this.
05:39Well, apparently, Jane doesn't play by the same rules.
05:42I think it's time to fight dirty.
05:45I don't know how to do that.
05:47Well, you're in luck.
05:48She might have gone to school with the Wicked Witch, but you went to school with me.
05:52It's portfolio review time.
05:57That's the special moment where I tell you all how you're letting me down.
06:01Okay, speaking as a former teacher.
06:04Still pontificating.
06:06Now, some might say he must think pretty highly of himself to judge other people so harshly.
06:10To which I say, yeah, he does.
06:13Can you believe this guy?
06:15I would die for him.
06:17Yeah, that's a healthy attitude.
06:19So while you're opening your portfolios and arranging your works, let me tell you what I do not want to see.
06:24Bowls of fruit.
06:29Portraits of children.
06:32Frigid winter landscapes.
06:35Lush summer vistas.
06:37However, I do enjoy a nice ocean scene, just so it's not ruined by the addition of a sad little sailboat.
06:48Did you look in my portfolio?
06:50As a matter of fact, I did.
06:52I wanted to steal myself for disappointment.
06:54Okay.
06:55Again, as a former teacher, that's not how you motivate people.
06:59Apparently not.
07:00You haven't grown an inch since you started my class.
07:03Your work's the same as it's always been.
07:04Technically proficient, but totally boring.
07:07You never surprise me.
07:10Amy, on the other hand, has nothing but surprises.
07:14Don't talk to her.
07:16Her technique is atrocious.
07:18Cats with crayons could draw more convincingly.
07:21But what she does is real.
07:23And it bleeds.
07:24And I love it.
07:25I would follow him into hell.
07:31I think we already have.
07:34Celia, get back here!
07:35Give me that, now!
07:36Hey, hey, hey!
07:37Enough with the screaming!
07:38Come on, sit down.
07:39Come.
07:45What are we having?
07:46Spaghetti and meat shapes?
07:47Well, he started off as balls.
07:48What do you want from me?
07:50Is Daddy eating with us?
07:51No, sweetie, he's taking a nap.
07:52Celia, use a fork, not the doll.
07:59Mom, remember that cabin on the lake?
08:01Could we rent it again for spring vacation?
08:03Spring?
08:04It isn't even Thanksgiving yet.
08:06I know, but we always plan our vacations in the fall.
08:09Well, who knows what we'll be doing then?
08:12Let's just worry about that later, okay?
08:16But we know we want to go there.
08:18Why can't we plan it now?
08:19Will you just stop?
08:20Just eat your food.
08:26And what am I going to tell her?
08:27Sorry, sweetie, we can't rent that cabin because Daddy and I might be in jail by spring.
08:31Will you stop?
08:32We're not going to jail.
08:33You can't promise that, Carlos.
08:35It's been two months.
08:36Nothing's happened.
08:37Relax.
08:40Where's this coming from?
08:41I'm just saying a cop could show up at the door any day and destroy our family.
08:45And we don't even have someone to take care of the kids.
08:48Sure we do.
08:49We named a guardian when we did our will.
08:51Yeah, Susan.
08:52She'll be my cellmate.
08:53And we'll be making license plates with Bree and Lynette.
08:56Ah, right.
08:57Well, we'll just find someone else.
09:00How about McCluskey?
09:01Are you kidding?
09:02I've got meat in the freezer.
09:03It's going to be around longer than she is.
09:07Oh, I know.
09:08I know.
09:09And they're perfect.
09:10Bob and Lee.
09:12Huh?
09:13Think about it.
09:14Two gay guys who could have been out dancing every night adopted a child?
09:18They chose this?
09:20Yeah.
09:21What does that tell us?
09:22They're unstable.
09:23I'm serious.
09:24They're great parents.
09:25Yeah, they are.
09:28Okay.
09:29Bob and Lee will ask them.
09:31But don't worry.
09:32We're not going anywhere.
09:37Can't promise that.
09:47Dad and Jane are coming.
09:48I'm going to wait on the porch.
09:49Oh, and Jane's cooking so I won't need dinner.
10:01Everything okay?
10:02Huh?
10:03I'm sorry.
10:04I was just looking at all these pictures in your baby book.
10:07I guess I was getting a little nostalgic.
10:10Mom, my baby book has like five pictures in it.
10:13But they're really good.
10:14You want to see?
10:15Look, here's you with me and your dad at your first birthday.
10:18Look at us.
10:21We were really a family then.
10:26We're family now.
10:28Aren't we?
10:29Of course.
10:30Oh, of course.
10:31It's just...
10:34Just what?
10:36Well, since you asked, things are going to be different since your dad brought Jane into the picture.
10:40You don't like her, do you?
10:41Oh, I didn't say that.
10:42She's a very smart lady.
10:43And she obviously knows how to get what she wants.
10:45Medical career, other people's husbands.
10:46But I'm not going to say anything bad.
10:47I know.
10:48You like her.
10:49Well, I thought she was nice.
10:50She is.
10:51To you.
10:52Maybe that's because she's trying to steal you too.
10:53But like I said, I don't want to say anything bad.
10:54You should go wait out on the porch.
10:55You don't need to sit here listening to my legitimate whining.
10:56I don't want to go over there.
10:57Oh, I want to stay here with you.
10:58Well, if you feel strongly about it, and I can tell you do, I could call your dad and make an excuse.
11:02But I thought she was nice and me.
11:03Maybe that's because she's trying to steal you too.
11:04But like I said, I don't want to say anything bad.
11:06You should go wait out on the porch.
11:07You don't need to sit here listening to my legitimate whining.
11:13I don't want to go over there.
11:16Oh?
11:17I want to stay here.
11:19With you.
11:20Well, if you feel strongly about it, and I can tell you do, I could call your dad and make an excuse.
11:27Would you?
11:28Sweetie, I would do anything for you.
11:31You are my daughter.
11:33My biological daughter.
11:36Thanks.
11:37I love you, Mom.
11:38I love you too, boo-boo.
11:43Boo-boo?
11:45We'll work on it.
11:49Oh, I hate you, Andre.
11:53Susan.
11:55I ran your job out twice.
11:56Is everything okay?
11:57Oh, I can't get his voice out of my head.
12:00Voice?
12:02Yeah, he keeps telling me how bad I am.
12:05Oh, really?
12:07Does this voice also tell you to do things?
12:10Sorry, I know.
12:11I must sound crazy.
12:12It's just I've been staring at this blank canvas for two days.
12:16I don't sleep.
12:17I don't eat.
12:18Do you dig things up?
12:20What?
12:21What?
12:21Did you just ask me if I dug something up?
12:25Oh, I think someone's been staring at a blank canvas too long.
12:29Bree, what's going on?
12:31Why are you here?
12:36Okay, I'm just going to come right out and ask you.
12:38Did you...
12:39Hey.
12:40Mike, what are you doing home?
12:41I thought you were meeting Ben about the job.
12:43Yeah, I was.
12:44And then he called and said he had to cancel.
12:46Something happened to the site.
12:47And they had to shut down the whole project.
12:49That's weird.
12:50Yeah, did he say what it was?
12:52No.
12:54But it sure didn't sound good.
13:00Well, I really should be going.
13:01Wait.
13:02You said you were going to ask me something.
13:05No, I didn't.
13:06You really need to get away from those paint fumes.
13:08Guardians.
13:16Yeah.
13:16You know, in case something happens to us, we think you guys would be terrific parents
13:20to our girls.
13:21Wow.
13:22What an honor.
13:24Well, you know, we love Juanita and the other one.
13:29Celia.
13:29Tip of my tongue.
13:30But you have so many closer friends on the lane.
13:33What about Susan?
13:34Yeah, that'd never work.
13:35Why not?
13:37Um, well, Susan...
13:39Is...
13:40A racist.
13:42What?
13:43I've known her for years.
13:44I've never seen her be racist.
13:46It's new.
13:48What about Brie?
13:49Yeah.
13:50An alcoholic with a house full of guns.
13:52Genius.
13:53Lynette, McCluskey, anyone at all?
13:56Hang on.
13:57Do you guys have a problem with our girls?
14:00It's just, we're still learning how to take care of one kid.
14:03You've got two, and they're both...
14:05You know.
14:08What?
14:09Monsters.
14:10You know it, we know it.
14:12Why are we dancing around it?
14:13I was going to say spirited.
14:14No, no, no, no, no.
14:15See, they used to be like that.
14:17They've changed.
14:18They're all grown up now.
14:19I babysat them two months ago.
14:20Juanita punched me in the neck, and the other one bit me.
14:23Celia.
14:24Her name is Celia.
14:25Seriously, guys, they're like different people now.
14:27So well-behaved.
14:29Yeah, you have to see it to believe it.
14:34You know what?
14:35That's a great idea.
14:37What?
14:37What is?
14:38Why don't you have us over for dinner tomorrow,
14:41and we can see how well-behaved they truly are.
14:47Oh, my God.
14:48That is a great idea.
14:50But I don't know about tomorrow,
14:52because the girls are busy with their Bible pageant
14:56and their extensive charity work.
14:59Tomorrow.
15:00Tomorrow.
15:02Bye, guys.
15:03See you at dinner.
15:05We're done.
15:06Yeah.
15:12Okay.
15:13Bob and Lee are coming over for dinner tonight.
15:14That gives me nine hours to teach you to be courteous,
15:17gracious, and well-mannered.
15:19Exact opposite of what you usually are.
15:22This is why we kept us home from school?
15:25Oh, you're in school, and class is in session.
15:28Okay.
15:29Now, which one is the salad for?
15:31What salad?
15:32When is the last time you brushed your...
15:40Is this a lollipop?
15:44Told you it wasn't a good hiding place.
15:48Come on, think.
15:50Who won the Tony for Best Musical in 1995?
15:53This is too hard.
15:54Why can't gay people like cartoons?
15:58Did you get that out of the garbage?
15:59Hey.
16:06Didn't you get my message?
16:08About Penny not being able to come over?
16:09Yeah.
16:10Been getting a lot of those messages lately.
16:12Penny!
16:13So why are you here?
16:14To see my daughter.
16:17Want to find out what's going on.
16:20Hey.
16:21Hey, Dad.
16:22I haven't seen you this week.
16:24Is everything okay?
16:25Yeah.
16:26I've just had a lot of homework and stuff.
16:28Why don't you do it at my place?
16:31You know, if it's science, Jane lives right upstairs, and she's a real brainiac.
16:36No, thanks.
16:38I'd rather have Mom help.
16:47Do you have a problem with Jane, sweetie?
16:48I've got a really big test tomorrow, so I...
16:55Hang on.
16:56Hang on.
16:58Maybe you and I need a little one-on-one time.
17:03You remember that park where I taught you to play catch?
17:06Well, I'm going to be there tomorrow, after school.
17:09Just me.
17:10We can hang out or do whatever you want.
17:13What do you say?
17:14Okay.
17:23Huh.
17:25That's weird.
17:25Penny and Jane were getting along great, and then all of a sudden...
17:29All of a sudden what?
17:29Did you say anything to her about not liking Jane?
17:32Penny's a big girl.
17:33She has her own opinions.
17:34Okay.
17:37I just want to make sure that we remember that this thing between us is between us.
17:42Not the kids.
17:43Hey, don't blame me.
17:45I'm not the one who jumped into a relationship without thinking about the consequences.
17:48You made your bed with someone else.
17:50I'm going to go help our daughter with her homework.
17:52Okay.
17:52Marie.
18:09Hello.
18:11I wanted to celebrate your first day of construction with lunch.
18:15I'm already eating.
18:18That was a little problem.
18:20Really?
18:23I hope you don't think me nosy if I ask...
18:25My guys found a body buried in the woods.
18:28Oh, my.
18:29Did you call the police?
18:31Not yet.
18:36So they found a body.
18:38How?
18:39Doing soil samples.
18:41They dug it up Halloween night, put it in a storage shed.
18:45And why have you waited so long to call the police?
18:47Because I keep hoping I'll find a way out of this.
18:49Because once I call, my project becomes a crime scene.
18:53They shut it down, I lose a lot of time and a lot of money.
18:59What a shame.
19:02It must be so tempting to just make the body disappear.
19:06I'm sure you've considered repairing it or dissolving it in acid or wrapping it in heavy chains and dropping it in a lake.
19:17I'm sure you've considered that.
19:20Yeah, yeah, of course I have.
19:23But if I hide this and it comes out later, I'm committing a felony.
19:27I can't take that risk.
19:31You know what?
19:32Think of all the people who lose their jobs.
19:34And what about the poor men who dug up the body?
19:37They could face charges.
19:38I know that, Bree.
19:40Oh, I'm sorry.
19:45You're just saying the same stuff I've been thinking all day.
19:51But there's no way out of this.
19:56There isn't, is there?
19:57I'm going to go and call the cops.
20:04Get this over with.
20:05I'm going to go and call the cops, get this over with.
20:27Bree.
20:45He was a horrible man.
20:48What?
20:49You know who this was?
20:51He hurt a child.
20:54Someone I care about very much.
20:57And I was going to hurt her again.
21:06Bree, did you kill him?
21:11Tell me you didn't kill him.
21:12I need to know before I go to the police.
21:14I didn't kill him.
21:16My friend did, and I helped bury him here.
21:19Oh, God.
21:23And you want me to make this go away?
21:27I know it's a lot to ask, but yes, that's what I want.
21:42I'm sorry, Bree.
21:45I can't.
21:45I can't.
21:45And thank you, Lord, for this wonderful food.
22:02And bless our good friends, Bob and Lee.
22:04We are so grateful to have them as our neighbors.
22:08And bless our daughter, Jenny, who is away at her sleepover.
22:11We miss her so much.
22:13And bless all the children of the world, whether they have a mommy and daddy, two mommies, or two daddies.
22:22Amen.
22:22Amen.
22:24That was really nice.
22:25We never pray before meals at our house.
22:27Well, some meals you just need to pray before.
22:30That's a beautiful dress, Juanita.
22:32I guess.
22:33Oh, Juanita, don't be modest.
22:37Oh, isn't there a story behind that dress you'd like to tell?
22:42Well, actually, it's kind of like Anita's dress in West Side Story, my all-time favorite musical.
22:48Oh, you like musicals?
22:52Hmm, do I like musicals?
22:55Of course you do, silly.
22:57You love them.
22:58Oh.
22:58All right, I'm going to have to owe you.
23:02I'm out of singles.
23:03I can break up on it.
23:05I'm such a good girl.
23:07She sure is.
23:08Anyone need salt?
23:10Yeah.
23:18Oh, God.
23:19You broke me.
23:21And now you're inside.
23:22I can't paint.
23:25I just stare at the empty canvas and wonder how much you're going to hate what I do next.
23:31Well, I can help you with that.
23:32You can?
23:34Yes.
23:35I'll hate it a lot.
23:36We're good.
23:38What do I have to do to get you to take me seriously?
23:42Hey.
23:44Oh.
23:45Of course.
23:47It makes perfect.
23:50This is why you like Amy better in class.
23:52No, I like Amy better in class because she's a better artist.
23:55This is why I like her in bed.
23:58See ya.
24:00So as you can see, Susan, I'm a little busy, so if we're done...
24:03We're not done.
24:04I am totally adrift in that class.
24:08Okay.
24:09Would it help if I told you what your grade is?
24:12No, I, I, I mean, that's not what I was...
24:14You're getting an A.
24:15Really?
24:16Well, actually, an A plus.
24:18Oh, wait, I'm sure that's not enough for you.
24:20You probably also need to know everybody else will get a D.
24:23Amy, you're getting a D.
24:25Okay.
24:26Congratulations, Susan.
24:29I do not want you to give me a fake grade.
24:32It doesn't mean anything if you're lying.
24:35Well, why not?
24:36You're lying.
24:37No, I'm not.
24:40Every time you sit down to paint, and don't paint the fear and pain that's in you, you're lying.
24:46Every time you care what somebody else thinks about your art, you're lying.
24:51I have to go.
24:53I used to think you were holding something back.
24:57Now I wonder if there just isn't anything there.
24:59So enjoy your A plus.
25:02Don't come to my class anymore.
25:03We're done.
25:04Gabby, it was a wonderful night.
25:12And you were so right about the girls.
25:13They are an absolute delight when they sang the dream girl's number at Goosebumps.
25:17Seriously.
25:18Oh, I'm just glad you could come.
25:20You guys are so special to us.
25:23Gabby, did you leave the garage door open?
25:24Oh, I mean, you're practically family.
25:26That's why when we were thinking who we'd want to be guardians of our precious angels, you two were the only ones we considered.
25:35I mean, the girls absolutely adore you, and...
25:39What?
25:46Oh, dear.
25:47This aside, it was a pretty good evening, wasn't it?
26:05I don't get it?
26:08What were you thinking?
26:09Your father and I did not raise you like this.
26:12Sorry.
26:13Can you just tell me why?
26:14I want to understand.
26:15I thought you liked Bob and Lee.
26:17I do.
26:18They're nice.
26:19Then I'm confused.
26:20Why'd you do it?
26:25Fine.
26:26Go to bed.
26:27We'll talk about your punishment tomorrow and how you're going to make this up to them.
26:31Is Daddy dying?
26:34What?
26:35No.
26:36Why would you even say that?
26:37Because you guys have been acting different, and Daddy sleeps a lot, and everyone seems sad, even more happy.
26:48It's like, I don't know, just sad.
26:56Daddy's fine, and Mommy's fine, too.
26:58Why do you want us to go live with Bob and Lee?
27:04I heard you guys talking about it.
27:07Sorry.
27:09Honey, it's called being a guardian.
27:11Every family has that.
27:12It's just in case.
27:14But trust me, nothing's going to happen.
27:19So, we can rent that cabin for spring vacation?
27:23Sure.
27:23And everything's going to be okay?
27:27You promise?
27:29Cross my heart.
27:46Okay, last week it was a teething visca cake to my ass, and now this?
27:51Why are we stopping?
27:52What are you looking at?
27:54Penny's meeting Tom here for some one-on-one time, and I wanted to make sure St. Jane didn't make it a threesome.
28:01Threesome?
28:02Looks more like a lonesome to me.
28:06She didn't come.
28:07Oh, maybe she's busy.
28:08You said Jane's a doctor, right?
28:11I was talking about Penny.
28:14She didn't come.
28:18Well, at least you don't have to worry about Jane busting up your family.
28:22You're right.
28:25I seem to be doing that just fine on my own.
28:33Hello, Brie.
28:35Chuck.
28:36What are you doing here?
28:37Relax, just police business.
28:41Following up on a missing person report.
28:44Have you seen this man?
28:50Two months ago, the night of that dinner party, we were walking to your house, and we passed him right here.
28:57You remember?
28:58I've never seen that man before in my life.
29:02Have you ever heard of micro-expressions, Brie?
29:07They flash across a person's face for a fraction of a second, revealing their true emotion instead of the one they're covering with.
29:14It's how cops know when people lie.
29:17Well, that's all very fascinating, but I don't have time for this.
29:19For example, when a person is stressed, their eyebrows go up, causing lines to appear across the forehead.
29:28Don't touch me.
29:30You know the funny thing is?
29:33I don't need a micro-expression to tell me when you're lying.
29:36Because I know that look from personal experience.
29:39I saw it every time I was in your bed, and you said you loved me.
29:43So since I know you're lying, why don't you start telling me the truth?
29:50Whoa.
29:53I'm a cop.
29:55Don't I?
29:56Keep harassing this woman, you're going to wind up an ex-cop.
30:00You might want to watch it with a tough guy act, buddy.
30:03Well, unlike you, officer.
30:05It's not an act.
30:06I'll be seeing you.
30:18Big mistake.
30:26Whoa.
30:27He's at the what?
30:28Oh, God, I'm shaking.
30:30Does this have something to do with, uh, what we talked about in the woods?
30:40Yes.
30:42Then you've got nothing to be scared about.
30:47Well, it's pretty hard to build a case without a body.
30:55Oh, thank you.
30:58Why would you do that for me?
31:04Ah, you never know.
31:05Maybe someday I might need something from you.
31:22What are we...
31:23What...
31:25I thought we were going to the mall.
31:28No.
31:30Sweetie, listen.
31:31Can we get out of here?
31:33Please?
31:33No, we can't.
31:35You need to spend some time with your dad.
31:38I don't want to.
31:39I'm not giving you a choice.
31:41Look at him.
31:43Look.
31:45You know why he's sitting over there?
31:46Because he misses you so much.
31:50Then he shouldn't have left us for Jane.
31:51Well, that's not what happened.
31:57He didn't leave us.
31:58He left me.
32:00And he didn't do it for Jane.
32:02He did it because...
32:04We just don't make each other happy.
32:09And then he met Jane.
32:11And I guess she does...
32:13make him happy.
32:14So...
32:15Here we are.
32:21But you said that...
32:22I know.
32:23I said a lot of things I shouldn't have.
32:26I'm sorry.
32:32He loves you, Penny.
32:35We both do.
32:37There's no bad guys here.
32:39There's just people trying to figure things out.
32:42And there's one of those people.
32:45And I know he would love to play catch with his daughter.
32:49I know.
33:08You're way prettier than her.
33:11You're way prettier than her.
33:38You want something to drink?
34:00Ah, nah.
34:02This isn't a social visit.
34:03I need to ask you something.
34:05And I couldn't do it over the phone.
34:07Oh?
34:08Remember when I said I might need you to, uh...
34:11color outside the lines from time to time?
34:13Yeah.
34:15We found a body out in Chapman Woods.
34:18Now, it's probably just some homeless guy.
34:21But if we report it, we're...
34:22I'll take care of it.
34:25Just like that.
34:26There's nothing else you need to know.
34:29It's better if I don't.
34:32I owe you one.
34:36Hey, Ben.
34:36Hey, Susan.
34:37I'm just leaving.
34:39So you work.
34:43So you got the job?
34:44That's great.
34:46Yeah.
34:47Just wait till you hear what the job is.
34:52So, Ben will dispose of the body permanently, he assures me.
34:56And we will be in the clear.
34:57Wow.
34:59Just like that.
35:02Bree, it's me.
35:03Come in.
35:04Did anybody else think this would feel better?
35:08I think it feels great.
35:10Well done, Bree.
35:12Guess we got away with it.
35:14Oh, thank God you're here.
35:16Susan, what's wrong?
35:17Okay, uh...
35:18You know how Ben is putting up those new condos?
35:22He's doing it in Chapman Woods.
35:24And some of his guys found the body.
35:27He just asked Mike to get rid of it.
35:29What?
35:30You're kidding.
35:31Get out of town!
35:34What's going on?
35:39Sweetie, we kind of already knew.
35:41Who told you?
35:42No one.
35:42No one.
35:43We kind of went out there to move the body.
35:46But it was gone.
35:47And then I went to Ben and he had it and he was planning on getting rid of it.
35:52So, wait.
35:55You knew all of this?
35:57And it never occurred to you to tell me?
36:00Yeah.
36:02But bright side is we're all in the clear now.
36:04Chardonnay?
36:05I don't believe it.
36:06You drag me into this thing.
36:08I am out of my mind with guilt.
36:10Then there's this massive complication.
36:12Which could endanger me and my family.
36:14And you don't even tell me?
36:17Here's why we didn't tell her.
36:19What the hell does that mean?
36:21Let's face it, Susan.
36:22You're kind of a loose cannon.
36:24Yeah, I mean, 15 minutes after we made a pact to keep this secret,
36:27you were begging us to tell Mike.
36:29Oh, yeah?
36:29Well, guess what?
36:30I didn't tell Mike.
36:31Carlos did.
36:32So, who's your loose cannon now?
36:34What?
36:35Why would Carlos do that?
36:36Oh, I don't know.
36:37Maybe because, unlike you, he has a conscience.
36:39So, don't push it, Susan.
36:40Hey, hey, hey.
36:41Take it easy.
36:42The important thing is the body is gone.
36:44We're going to be okay.
36:46Yeah.
36:46As long as we don't get another letter.
36:51What letter?
36:52Yeah, what letter?
36:54Yeah, I mean, you never told them about the letter.
36:58Crap.
37:00Susan, wait.
37:01No, no.
37:02You get a blackmail letter, the same one Mary Alice got, and you don't tell me?
37:06We didn't think you could handle it.
37:08You said it yourself.
37:09You're out of your mind with guilt.
37:10Our pact was to keep this thing a secret, not to keep secrets from each other.
37:15We're done.
37:17Don't you think you're overreacting a little?
37:18Well, I don't think she is.
37:23What's your excuse for not telling me about the letter?
37:26Well, honey, you were going through all that stuff with Tom.
37:28Yeah, we were trying to protect you.
37:30Protect me?
37:31What am I, a child?
37:32Someone knows what we did.
37:34I have a right to know that.
37:35Of course you do.
37:36You know what my life feels like right now?
37:38Everything I thought I knew, everything I could count on is going away.
37:41That's not true.
37:42You can count on us.
37:43No, apparently I can't.
38:06You can count on us.
38:36Yes, we're all seeking control over something in our lives.
38:58We may want to cover up the remains of a troubling secret.
39:06Or ease the pain of letting go.
39:13Or erase the mistakes of our children.
39:21But sometimes, the only way we can truly change our lives...
39:27Finally.
39:28...is by letting go completely.
39:31No matter what the cost.
39:34...is by letting go...
