00:01Previously on Desperate Housewives, Tom and Lynette drifted further apart, and Jane took advantage.
00:08I'm scared.
00:09Roy helped Karen face her cancer.
00:12We're done.
00:13I'm the one that decides when we're done.
00:15The Lone Shark threatened Renee, but Mike stepped in.
00:19I don't ever want to see you again.
00:20You should have killed me.
00:21Bree discovered the truth about Orson.
00:23You wrote the letters. You killed Chuck.
00:26And cut off all contact with him.
00:27Don't you ever call my house again.
00:30I can assure you this is the last you'll hear from me.
00:32But Orson had the last word.
00:40In our neighborhood, there are people we see every day.
00:44And every day, we take them for granted.
00:49As we go about our lives, we may be busy with a mundane task.
00:54And miss one another completely.
00:57Or we might give a polite wave, only to return to what we were doing.
01:06One minute we're spending time with a loved one.
01:09And the next, we're wrapped up in our work.
01:17We're preoccupied with our own problems.
01:22What a shame these neighbors take each other for granted.
01:26Because in just a few days,
01:29one of these people will be dead.
01:32That afternoon, old friends got together to share coffee and gossip.
01:49And to discover...
01:50Is there a cup for me?
01:52That they were still old friends, after all.
01:56So Orson was behind everything?
02:01Chuck, the letters...
02:03Do you know why he did it?
02:05They thought the only way he could have me to himself
02:07was by tearing me away from you three.
02:09Well, guess what?
02:10He failed.
02:11That's right.
02:12Because we are still here for you.
02:14And no psycho on wheels is going to change that.
02:16And I'll tell you something else.
02:17He better not show his face around here ever again.
02:23What's wrong?
02:24The last time I spoke to Orson,
02:26he intimated that he would take his own life.
02:30Oh, sweetie.
02:31I should have done something.
02:32I should have made him tell me where he was and gone to him.
02:36Why?
02:36So he could torture you some more?
02:37I know what he's become,
02:39but you all know there was a time when I loved that man very much.
02:42Well, he's not that man anymore.
02:47Okay, have we been sad long enough?
02:51Because I'd just like to point something out.
02:53We are finally in the clear.
02:56She's right.
02:57The letters were the last question mark left.
02:59So maybe now we can get back to normal.
03:02Yes.
03:03Our nightmare is finally over.
03:05Thanks.
03:28Is everything all right over here?
03:30Doctors.
03:31They should learn how to talk to people.
03:33I'm afraid I don't understand.
03:34We just got back from my appointment.
03:36Looks like the cancer is spreading faster than anyone thought.
03:40Oh, Karen.
03:41Yep.
03:42You gave me the old put your affairs in order speech.
03:45Only not that nice.
03:47These are people these doctors are talking to,
03:49not just some name on a chart.
03:52They can all go to hell.
03:55I'm so sorry.
03:57He's just pissed at the world.
04:00Oh, I've got it.
04:00I've got it.
04:01What about you?
04:06I can't even imagine what you're going through.
04:09I'm really going to miss the Christmas festival.
04:13The lane looks so pretty when the lights are open.
04:17Karen.
04:19If there's anything I can do for you.
04:22I mean it.
04:23Anything.
04:24Yeah.
04:26Thanks, Bree.
04:35Come in.
04:37Wow.
04:37The place looks great.
04:39You are going all out.
04:42Ever since Porter's big announcement,
04:44I have a new policy for all our kids.
04:47If you can resist procreating,
04:49I will throw you a bitchin' party.
04:51I just, I wanted to drop off Penny's present.
04:55Champagne.
04:55Isn't that taking the bitchin' party idea a little too far?
04:58That is for you.
05:00You went through 22 hours of labor with her.
05:01Seems like you should get to celebrate, too.
05:03That is so thoughtful.
05:07Uncharacteristically thoughtful.
05:07And now that I think about it,
05:09you could have brought Penny's present to the party.
05:11So, um...
05:13What's going on?
05:15Okay, um...
05:18I was just wondering...
05:19If you wouldn't mind.
05:21Mm-hmm.
05:22Maybe we should open that champagne now.
05:24Just say it.
05:26I want to bring Jane to Penny's party.
05:29Oh, God.
05:30Look, I know it's a little awkward.
05:32Bringing a date to your daughter's birthday party
05:34when you're still married?
05:35Yeah, it's a little awkward.
05:36This is a family event.
05:38I know, but Jane is part of my life now.
05:40Yeah, your life.
05:42I'm sorry, Lynette,
05:43but I really want to start including Jane
05:46in some of these things.
05:47Why?
05:49Well...
05:49Dad!
05:51Hey, you!
05:53Is that for me?
05:54Can I open it?
05:56Hey, I know this trick,
05:57and if I let you open it today,
05:58you are going to guilt me
05:59into buying you another one
06:00on your actual birthday.
06:02That's totally what I'm going to do.
06:04And I am totally going to fall for it.
06:07Hey!
06:08Hey, hey, hey!
06:09Didn't you want to finish our conversation?
06:10Another time.
06:11Just enjoy the champagne.
06:12You had to get the girls a cat, didn't you?
06:19Even though you know I'm allergic.
06:20Oh, you say you're allergic
06:21to everything you don't like.
06:23Cats, raisins,
06:24the vacuum cleaner.
06:26Hey, that is medically verified.
06:28Girls, show Mommy how sad we'd be
06:29if she made us give back Rufus.
06:34Oh, how could I say no
06:35to such sad
06:36and obviously repersed faces?
06:38Daddy, want to see him do a trick?
06:42Kitty, fetch!
06:47Now come back!
06:49Rufus!
06:51He kind of does it every once.
06:56Well, he should fit right in around here.
06:58I'm not the one
06:59who just brought kitty litter
07:00into our lives.
07:01Look,
07:02if the cat makes them happy,
07:05then it makes me happy.
07:07And one thing I realized in rehab,
07:08there is nothing more important to me
07:10than taking care of you guys.
07:12I love you for that.
07:15Ah, before I forget,
07:16I got you a present.
07:17Oh, a tie.
07:23It's for your first day
07:24back at work after rehab.
07:26Something that says,
07:27I'm sober, I'm stylish,
07:29and my wife has excellent taste.
07:31Wow.
07:33I was having so much fun
07:34with you and the girls,
07:35I kind of forgot
07:37I have to work tomorrow.
07:40Well, you could say thank you.
07:41Spent a lot of your money on it.
07:44Sorry, babe.
07:46Okay.
07:46Bedtime for bonzos.
08:03Hello there.
08:05Thank you for fixing my car today.
08:07I like a man who's good with his hands.
08:09It's very sexy.
08:11Although,
08:12I think my engine
08:13is still running a little hot.
08:16room.
08:20Susan,
08:20what are you doing?
08:21The question is,
08:23who am I doing?
08:23The answer
08:24is you.
08:27Oh,
08:27I'm sorry.
08:29I'm just really beat.
08:30Well, that hard work
08:34really took it out of you, huh?
08:37Well, hey,
08:39maybe this is something
08:40that will relax you.
08:43Hello.
08:44Is that a gun in your pocket,
08:45or are you just happy to feed me?
08:48Oh, my God.
08:50It is a gun.
08:51You've got a gun in your pocket?
08:53Susan,
08:53don't freak out.
08:54Why do you have a gun?
08:57Sit down.
08:59I have something
08:59I need to tell you.
09:07Did you mean what you said today?
09:10Karen.
09:11About helping me
09:12with anything I need?
09:13Because a lot of people say that,
09:14but they don't mean it.
09:15No, no, I meant it.
09:17You sure?
09:18Because let's be honest,
09:19you and I never really
09:19liked each other.
09:20You haven't?
09:21No.
09:22Well, I definitely meant
09:23what I said.
09:24Whatever you need,
09:25consider it done.
09:26Good.
09:26I want you to help kill me.
09:30Um,
09:31maybe we should talk
09:32about this inside.
09:36Karen,
09:36you can't seriously
09:37be considering this.
09:39Listen,
09:40cancer is a bully,
09:42and when it's as bad as mine,
09:43it laughs at our
09:44pathetic little attempts
09:45to fight it.
09:46So here's
09:47how I win.
09:50By making sure
09:51that I'm the one
09:52that says
09:53when and how
09:54I go.
09:56So,
09:57will you help me?
10:01What does Roy think?
10:02Well, Roy was the first
10:03one I went to.
10:04He couldn't do it.
10:06Too much of a marshmallow.
10:08I need someone cold
10:09and heartless.
10:11And that's me?
10:12A dying woman
10:13is sitting in front of you
10:14and you haven't even
10:14offered a cup of coffee.
10:15What does that tell you?
10:20I don't,
10:21I don't know
10:21if I can do that.
10:25I don't want
10:26to die alone, Bree.
10:28And the chemo's
10:28just kicking my ass.
10:30I don't want to
10:31waste away
10:32in some hospital bed.
10:35Please help me go
10:36the way I want to.
10:37I don't want to
10:38go the way I want to.
10:43All right.
10:45I'll be alone.
10:46Sorry to keep you waiting,
11:01Mr. and Mrs. Delfino.
11:03What can I do for you?
11:04My husband did something
11:06really stupid
11:06and now we need
11:07police protection.
11:08This is a police.
11:09Let me handle this.
11:10And by handle this,
11:11he means stare out
11:11the window
11:12with a gun
11:12in his pants.
11:14Could you
11:14start from the beginning,
11:16please?
11:17A buddy of mine,
11:18and I'm not telling you who,
11:19borrowed some money
11:20from a loan shark
11:21and things got a little
11:22out of hand
11:23and I had to help him out.
11:23Oh, and by help him out,
11:25he means beat up a mob guy
11:26putting our whole family
11:27in danger.
11:28Does your friend know
11:28it's illegal to use
11:29the services of a loan shark?
11:32He does.
11:32Do you know
11:33it's illegal to assault someone?
11:34The guy was breaking
11:34into our neighbor's house.
11:36I tried to get him to leave,
11:37he threw a punch
11:38and I defended myself.
11:39And now this lowlife
11:40wants to kill my husband,
11:41so you need to arrest him.
11:43Well, if you had called us
11:44after he broke
11:44into your neighbor's house,
11:45maybe we could have.
11:47Oh, so it would have been
11:49smarter to call the cops
11:51instead of slapping
11:53Jimmy Knuckles
11:53around the living room?
11:54Huh.
11:55Have I heard that before?
11:58Oh, that's right,
11:59from me.
12:01What's this about a gun?
12:03Do you have a permit
12:03for a gun, sir?
12:05All right, Detective,
12:06I think we're wasting
12:06your time.
12:07I can take care of this.
12:07No, Mike,
12:08you've been taking care of it
12:10and look where it got us.
12:11We have a nine-year-old son.
12:14Okay.
12:15Okay, look,
12:16here's what I can do.
12:17We have your address.
12:18I'll make sure the patrol car
12:19keeps an eye on things.
12:20And if you see this guy,
12:21call us.
12:24Wait, that's it?
12:25Ma'am, I'm afraid
12:26that's all we can do
12:27until something else happens.
12:29Great.
12:30Well, maybe we'll get lucky
12:31and something else will happen.
12:37Under this fresh coffee,
12:43you want me to put some
12:44in a travel mug?
12:44Okay.
12:46What's wrong?
12:4730 days with the rehab hippies
12:49and you've already forgotten
12:49how to tie a tie?
12:50I've just been thinking.
12:51I've worn a tie every day
12:53for 25 years
12:53and I've always hated
12:55the way it feels
12:56around my neck.
12:58So?
12:59I wear lots of
13:00uncomfortable things.
13:01High-heeled shoes,
13:02bras that mash my boobs together.
13:04I'm starting to think
13:04that a tie is basically
13:06just a fancy noose.
13:08Oh, honey.
13:11You're not nervous
13:11about your first day back,
13:12are you?
13:14I don't know.
13:16I just thought
13:17I'd be more excited
13:17than I am.
13:19Well, you're the boss.
13:19You want excitement,
13:20shake things up.
13:21Buy a new Xerox machine
13:22or get some Post-its
13:23and crazy colors.
13:25Take the staff to Happy Hour
13:26or get stinking drunk.
13:27Okay, maybe not
13:29the stinking drunk part,
13:30but you know what I mean.
13:31I gotta get the girls
13:32to school.
13:33See you tonight.
13:40I'm just saying
13:41you didn't have to fight
13:42that woman
13:43over a pair of boots.
13:44I saw him first.
13:46On her feet.
13:47Sorry.
13:48I shop New York style.
13:50Until someone is either
13:50bruised or bleeding,
13:51no sale is final.
13:57Hello?
14:00Oh, hi, Karen.
14:03No.
14:04No, now is not a good time.
14:06Renee is visiting.
14:09Well, I'm open tomorrow.
14:10Perhaps I could euthanize
14:11you in the morning.
14:13Great.
14:14I will see you then.
14:16So, I couldn't help
14:17it over here.
14:21It's Karen.
14:23Her cancer is spreading.
14:25Oh, no.
14:26Yeah.
14:29She's depressed
14:31and wants me to help her
14:33die with dignity.
14:35Oh, my God.
14:36Are you gonna do it?
14:38Of course not.
14:39She just got
14:39devastating news.
14:40She's in a state of shock.
14:42I'm just trying to
14:43string her along
14:44and buy some time
14:45until she's
14:45thinking clearly again.
14:47Think that'll work?
14:49It's got to.
14:51By the way,
14:52to help her keep
14:52her mind off it,
14:53I'm having people
14:53stop by
14:55and have tea
14:56and play Scrabble
14:57with her
14:57and maybe give her
14:58a foot massage.
15:00Do you think
15:00tomorrow maybe
15:01you could stop by
15:02and...
15:02Bree, if I touch
15:03that woman's feet,
15:04you're gonna have
15:04to euthanize me.
15:07Oh.
15:08Oh, look.
15:13Come on.
15:15Come on.
15:15Come on.
15:19Mom?
15:20Yeah?
15:21This party
15:22is amazing.
15:23Thank you so much.
15:24Oh, I just wanted
15:25your birthday
15:26to be perfect.
15:28Happy birthday, Penny.
15:30Then again,
15:30nothing's perfect.
15:31Hey, Jane.
15:33Tom went to pick up
15:33the cake,
15:34so if you want
15:34to wait in the car...
15:35Oh.
15:37Oh.
15:37I didn't know
15:38you were bringing
15:38a guest.
15:39Actually,
15:40this is my gift
15:40for Penny.
15:41A geisha?
15:43My niece,
15:44Cindy.
15:44She's a photographer.
15:45Hi.
15:46Nice to meet you.
15:47She's gonna take
15:48pictures of the party
15:49and then I'm gonna
15:50make a little
15:50memory book.
15:52Cool.
15:53I knew you would
15:53love it.
15:54Hi.
15:55Come here.
15:58Funny faces?
16:00Perfect.
16:01Perfect.
16:01Ha, ha, ha!
16:02Ha, ha, ha!
16:03Ha, ha, ha!
16:03Ha, ha, ha!
16:06Ha, ha, ha!
16:09Ha, ha!
16:18Can I talk to you for a second?
16:36Okay.
16:37What are you doing?
16:39Just making sure I'm in the memory book.
16:41You're invading every photo that Penny and I are in.
16:44I'm her mother.
16:45Maybe you're the invader.
16:46And we're back to this.
16:47I spent weeks planning this party, making it perfect for her.
16:50And then you come in and upstage me?
16:52I'm just trying to forge a relationship with Penny.
16:55Well, stop forging.
16:56You're not family.
16:57You're just some woman her father is seeing.
17:01Well.
17:03Well.
17:04What?
17:04Well.
17:05That's not all I am.
17:07What does that mean?
17:10You know, you should probably talk to Tom.
17:12Tom's not here, so why don't you tell me what the hell you're talking about?
17:19Okay.
17:21I really didn't want you to hear this from me, but since you're insisting, Tom asked me to move in with him.
17:29So now you know.
17:30Sorry, the cake took longer than I thought.
17:48What?
17:48This is how I find out you and Jane are going to live together?
17:51From her?
17:51Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
17:53She wasn't supposed to say anything.
17:55Well, she didn't get the memo because she did say something.
17:57In my house.
17:58The house you and I lived in.
17:59I didn't deserve that.
18:01I am so sorry, Lynette.
18:03I really need to put this cake down.
18:07Why didn't you tell me?
18:09I tried the other day, but Penny wanted to open her present, and I didn't want to ruin her birthday.
18:14God, Tom.
18:16You've only known her three months.
18:18We were talking about the future, and living together is the next step.
18:23Oh, you're talking about steps now?
18:25Geez, I wonder what the step after that could be.
18:27We haven't talked about that.
18:28That's good, since you and I aren't even divorced yet.
18:31I know.
18:31I thought maybe we should talk to a lawyer or something this week.
18:41Really?
18:45I thought this was a trial separation.
18:48To see how we did apart.
18:50To see if we could be happy.
18:55That's the thing.
18:58I am happy.
19:01And if you're not, I'm really sorry.
19:05Can I get a picture of Mom and Dad?
19:06Karen, what in the world are you doing?
19:28I lost a contact.
19:29Oh, my God.
19:31You were hoping I would run you over.
19:33Well, what choice do I have?
19:34You said you'd help me, and then you keep blowing me off.
19:36Now, are you going to kill me today, or what?
19:39No, I cannot kill you today.
19:40I have Pilates.
19:42You know, Brie, it sounds like we're just playing games.
19:45Karen, I really want to do this.
19:48I mean, I don't want to, but let's go for tomorrow.
19:51No excuses.
19:53Really?
19:53Really?
19:54Really?
19:58Because I'm serious about doing this.
20:01With or without you.
20:11Hello?
20:12Mrs. Solis, it's Marilyn, your husband's secretary.
20:15Hi, Marilyn.
20:16Why are we whispering?
20:17I don't want Mr. Solis to know I'm calling you.
20:19Why?
20:20What's wrong?
20:20Uh, he's been acting a little strange, and I just really need you to come down here.
20:27He's coming.
20:35Excuse me.
20:37Marilyn, what's going on?
20:38What's going on?
20:39He's giving away all our money.
20:41Who's this guy?
20:42Patrick McDonald, our CFO.
20:44Do you see all these people?
20:46A while back, we took over a steel company, chopped it up, sold it, and made a nice profit.
20:50And these are some of the workers who got laid off.
20:54Okay, so what are they doing here?
20:56Carlos has taken it upon himself to make things right by writing each of them a check for $50,000.
21:05Uh, okay.
21:06Excuse me.
21:10Excuse me.
21:11Excuse me.
21:12Oh, boy.
21:14He keeps this up, and we'll be bankrupt in a couple of weeks.
21:16Um, Mrs. Solis, I'm a party girl with a taste for young Brazilian gentlemen.
21:22I really need this job.
21:24I'm on it.
21:28Honey?
21:30Hey, babe.
21:31You took your advice.
21:32My advice?
21:33You told me to shake things up, so I decided to make work a place I want to be.
21:39Hope this helps.
21:40And remember, you can be anything you want to be.
21:45Nothing is out of reach.
21:46What do you say, Skip?
21:48Thanks, mister.
21:50Hey, honey, this is how you shake things up?
21:52By giving away all the company money?
21:53Oh, actually, I was afraid that Patrick would put a stop payment, so I decided to start using our personal account.
21:58All right, run along, tiny Tim.
22:00Okay, let's go.
22:01Sweetheart, you can be honest with me.
22:09Have you been drinking again?
22:11Nope.
22:12Haven't had a drink in 34 days.
22:14Then why the hell are you acting like a crazy person?
22:16You think this is crazy?
22:20No.
22:21What's crazy is making a fortune off of other people's misery without thinking for one minute how they're suffering.
22:28What's crazy is thinking you can find happiness in a paycheck or behind the wheel of a sports car.
22:34What's crazy is thinking that you're doing something important with your life just because you're wearing a tie.
22:41What?
22:56I'm trying to find Ben.
22:57He's not at his house.
22:58Is he here?
22:59No.
22:59What do you need Ben for?
23:00I want him to tell me where that loan shark lives so I can go to his house.
23:04To do what?
23:05I don't know.
23:06Maybe I'll give him some money.
23:07Maybe I'll kill him.
23:08I haven't decided yet.
23:08Okay, sweetie.
23:09You're a little worked up.
23:10Sit down.
23:11I'll pour you a glass of wine.
23:12No, I have to fix this.
23:14I'm terrified.
23:15I haven't slept in days.
23:16And my husband is walking around our house with a gun.
23:19Ooh, sorry.
23:20Why are you apologizing?
23:22Mike's the one who started this mess.
23:24You mean when he stuck his neck out for Ben and protected me?
23:27Is that the mess you're talking about?
23:30Look, when you've been burned by men as often as I have, you stop believing in that fairy tale idea of the guy on the white horse who comes in to save you.
23:38But meeting Mike and seeing how he is as a husband and a father and a friend, well, he got me believing again.
23:51Susan, he is a good man.
23:54You really think that?
23:58Or are you just trying to calm me down?
24:00I really think that.
24:02And I really want to calm you down.
24:04So if I pour this glass of wine, will you not go and kill anyone?
24:07Susan, okay.
24:11Okay.
24:17Bree, how are you doing?
24:19Karen's taking a nap.
24:21Actually, it's you I want to talk to.
24:22May I come in?
24:24Sure.
24:28Mmm, that pie smells wonderful.
24:30Yeah, Karen made rhubarb.
24:32I don't know why.
24:33She knows I don't like it.
24:34How could you not like it?
24:35It's the one pie she makes better than I do.
24:37Well, may I cut you a slice?
24:39Sure.
24:41So, what's going on?
24:45We have a real problem on our hands.
24:52I can't believe she asked you to do this.
24:54She doesn't even like you.
24:55Yes, we've established that already.
24:57I figured when I said no, that would be the end of it.
24:59No, she seems more determined than ever.
25:02What the hell are you doing?
25:04What?
25:04It's my suicide pie.
25:06Your what?
25:07I made it to kill myself.
25:09It's full of sleeping pills and tranquilizers.
25:12I bought a liquid something.
25:13Oh, my God.
25:15I ate two pieces.
25:17Oh, I'm so sorry, Bree.
25:20So, you want to go to the hospital or something?
25:21Yes, I want to go to the hospital.
25:23Oh.
25:23What were you doing?
25:28Making suicide pies.
25:30Well, if you two would grow a parent, help me out.
25:32Oh, sure.
25:33I'm the problem because I didn't want to murder my wife.
25:36Can we please continue this in the car in case you've forgotten?
25:38We need to get to the emergency room now.
25:43What are you doing?
25:43You're going the wrong way.
25:45She can't make a three-point turn.
25:47I can make a three-point turn.
25:48This is just easier.
25:49Okay, can we just please stay focused on getting to the hospital?
25:52And FYI, your turn signal is on.
25:53Yeah, I'm going to make a lift up on O'Kirsten.
25:56You're not going to take the interstate?
25:57Wouldn't that be faster?
25:58She can't merge.
25:59I can merge.
26:00The interstate is always jammed.
26:02Plus, I've got to stop and get gas.
26:03Okay, that's it.
26:04Stop!
26:05Stop the car!
26:11Get out!
26:13I'm driving.
26:15There's no need to get so nasty.
26:17I have every right to get nasty.
26:19You poisoned me!
26:20Picking that pie was a stupid thing to do.
26:22You have no idea what I'm going through.
26:24Oh, yes, I do.
26:26Three months ago, I was this close to killing myself.
26:29It was a quick fix on a very depressing night.
26:31But in the morning, I realized it was the most selfish thing I could do.
26:35It's not the same.
26:36You weren't dying.
26:37I am.
26:38I know.
26:39But if you take your life, it'll ruin the memory of everything you were before that.
26:43It's all anyone will remember.
26:47Look at Roy.
26:48Roy, is that what you want to do to the man who loves you?
26:50Baby, I don't want you to go before your time.
26:57Okay.
26:58I'll stick around as long as I can.
27:00Oh, that's lovely, but we still need to get to the emergency room.
27:09Oh, for heaven's sake.
27:10It's open.
27:28Ah.
27:29What are you going to share with me today?
27:31The results of my colonoscopy?
27:33My mom died?
27:34I shouldn't have said what I did.
27:38It was wrong, and I'm truly sorry.
27:49Are those the cheese puffs I brought?
27:50Yeah, I guess nobody liked them.
27:53Well, more for me.
27:54Twenty-three years I've been married to that man.
27:59Twenty-three years.
28:02And then we hit a rough patch, and we stumbled.
28:04And then he finds you.
28:05I totally get it.
28:07I'm talking!
28:10He finds you, and it kind of makes him stop trying to find me again.
28:16And then when someone has to tell me that you're moving in together, and we both know what that means, you do it.
28:26I said I'm sorry.
28:28And it almost sounded sincere.
28:33Fine.
28:35Have it your way.
28:36I only came because Tom asked me to apologize.
28:39I don't care what you think of me.
28:40Of course you don't.
28:41You only care about you.
28:42I think you're sneaky, Jane.
28:46I think everything you do, you do on purpose.
28:49I think you couldn't wait to see the look on my face when you told me you and Tom were moving in together.
28:53I think you actually liked it.
28:55I think you enjoyed it.
28:57I think...
28:58I think...
29:16What the hell?
29:18I couldn't breathe!
29:20I'm sorry, I panicked.
29:21I mean, not all of us are doctors.
29:25Oh.
29:27I think I'll go.
29:28Hey, Murphy.
29:51Yeah?
29:52You better take a look at this.
29:58Some crazy stuff in there, huh?
29:59Yeah.
30:01Any chance this could be on the level?
30:04Bree Vandy Camp.
30:05I know her.
30:06She's the one who ripped Chuck's heart out.
30:10I got a feeling about this.
30:13Enough of a feeling to go dig up a construction site?
30:15Are you sure you looked under your bed?
30:26I looked everywhere.
30:27Rufus is lost.
30:28Okay, honey, Mommy can't help you right now.
30:30Go look in the backyard.
30:33So just you, or did you adopt a bunch of orphans on your way home?
30:36Come on, Carlos, talk to me.
30:43What was it about today?
30:45Do you remember Bill?
30:47That guy from rehab I was always talking about?
30:49Oh, yeah, Bill.
30:51He was my counselor.
30:54Oh, yeah, Bill.
30:57He told me a story about his dad.
30:59He was a pilot in Vietnam.
31:02And he'd be flying his plane, 3,000 feet up,
31:04drop his bombs, go back to base.
31:07It wasn't until someone sent him a Life magazine
31:09that he saw the results of his...
31:12missions.
31:15It ruined him.
31:17What, he didn't know?
31:18He was dropping bombs.
31:19Things were going boom.
31:20It was the distance.
31:22And that's what I've been doing all these years.
31:25Dropping bombs from that skyscraper,
31:28and I can't keep doing it.
31:29I can't keep destroying lives for some...
31:34bottom line.
31:42Rufus!
31:43Here, kitty kitty!
31:44Meow!
31:46Meow!
31:47Meow!
31:49Meow!
31:51So what are you saying?
31:52You're going to quit your job?
31:54Yes.
31:54Oh, my God.
31:56But not until I find a new one.
31:58And what will that be?
32:00Well, I was thinking...
32:02maybe counseling.
32:04In one week,
32:05Bill does more good
32:06than I've done in my entire life.
32:08Yeah, and in one week,
32:08you make more money
32:09than Bill will make
32:10in his entire life.
32:11I'm not saying
32:12that we wouldn't have to cut back.
32:13You know,
32:14we may have to do
32:14a little downsizing.
32:15Whoa!
32:16Whoa, like what?
32:17I need specifics, Gandhi.
32:19I don't know.
32:20It just seems like
32:21we have a bunch of stuff
32:22that we don't need.
32:23Big screen TVs,
32:24two cars,
32:25a really big house.
32:27Would you want us to move?
32:28Yeah,
32:29maybe to someplace
32:30with a good public school.
32:31Oh, now you're yanking
32:32the kids at a private school,
32:33which they love.
32:34That's your solution.
32:36Help!
32:37Help!
32:38Juanita?
32:42Juanita?
32:43Mommy!
32:48Oh, my God!
32:50Baby, don't move!
32:52I'm scared!
32:54That's okay, sweetie.
32:55Daddy's coming.
32:55Just hold on.
32:57Ah!
32:58And don't look down!
33:04Okay, baby.
33:05You think you can walk
33:06slowly over to Daddy?
33:08No, I can't move.
33:10Okay, then I'm coming out
33:11to get you.
33:11No, wait, Carlos!
33:12Be careful!
33:17We are going to take this
33:19nice and slow.
33:21Okay, just keep your eyes
33:24on me.
33:36Oh, my God!
33:38It's okay.
33:39It's okay.
33:39I got you.
33:40I got you.
33:40I got you.
33:40I got you.
33:41Anita's finally asleep.
33:59Is she okay?
34:01Yeah, thanks to you.
34:03God, that was so scary.
34:04If anything had happened
34:07to her, I...
34:08It really puts things
34:08into perspective, doesn't it?
34:11Sure does.
34:13Well, mind you,
34:14nothing's more important
34:14than taking care of family.
34:17I could not agree more.
34:20Good.
34:22So does this mean
34:23you're giving up
34:23all that crazy talk
34:24and going back to work?
34:25No.
34:30The exact opposite.
34:32It means I'm more aware
34:33than ever of what
34:34really matters,
34:35giving back.
34:36Why do you keep
34:37calling it that?
34:38You're not giving,
34:39you're taking from us,
34:40your family.
34:41I don't know why
34:42I thought you'd understand
34:42this.
34:43You have always been selfish.
34:45Guilty?
34:45I am selfish.
34:46But you knew that
34:47when we got married.
34:48That was the deal.
34:48You make the money,
34:49I spend it,
34:50and I'm still holding up
34:51my end.
34:51Gabby, I am miserable
34:53at work.
34:54I can't do it anymore.
34:55Do you know
34:56how many times
34:56I thought to myself
34:57I can't do it anymore?
34:59When you were drowning
34:59your guilt in booze,
35:01when you disappeared
35:02in rehab.
35:03But I willed myself
35:04to hold this family together
35:05because someone had to.
35:07And guess what?
35:09Now it is your turn.
35:25I've got something to tell you.
35:28Oh.
35:29You're still mad,
35:30aren't you?
35:32No.
35:33You're a hard guy
35:34to stay mad at,
35:35Mike Delfino.
35:37And I think I figured out why.
35:40I figured out
35:41what it was
35:43about you
35:44that flipped my switch
35:46the very first time
35:47I met you.
35:48You've got to be
35:49the rugged good looks.
35:51No.
35:53But they didn't hurt.
35:57Okay.
35:58So what was it?
36:02You don't get scared.
36:04Me?
36:05No, that's not true.
36:06No, it is.
36:07You don't get scared.
36:09It's what everyone thinks
36:10when they meet you.
36:13Because you always
36:14take care of people.
36:19Why are you like that?
36:22Hmm.
36:25Um, I, um...
36:29My dad
36:30beat the crap out of my mom
36:32when I was a little...
36:35bad.
36:38I'd hear it happening
36:41and there wasn't anything
36:44a ten-year-old kid
36:45could do about it.
36:52So,
36:53maybe this came from that,
36:56but
36:57my whole life
36:59I see somebody in trouble
37:02and I can't walk away.
37:08but I can tell you
37:11something I am scared of.
37:14I get scared that
37:15maybe somehow
37:16because I'm not
37:19the most expressive guy
37:20in the world
37:21maybe I never made it clear
37:25to you how much I love you.
37:30No.
37:31No, no, I got that.
37:43I should start dinner.
37:48I thought you said
37:50you were going to fix
37:50that fence post.
37:52Ah, tomorrow.
37:55Oh, tomorrow.
38:00Hey.
38:02One more thing.
38:04Delfino!
38:04We all take the gift
38:15of life for granted.
38:17If only
38:18we could slow things down.
38:22I'm Mike Delfino.
38:24I just started renting
38:24The Sims' house next door.
38:25Susan Meyer.
38:26I live across the street.
38:28What you doing?
38:29Lock myself out.
38:30Naked.
38:31So how are you?
38:33I've never seen you
38:34look so beautiful.
38:37He said I'm pregnant.
38:38Mike?
38:40Mike?
38:40Because before you know it
39:02the gift is gone.
39:08Mike?
39:09Mike?
39:10I don't know.
39:10Mike?
39:11Mike?
39:12No.
39:13No.
39:14Mike?
39:15No.
39:17No.
39:18No.
39:18No.
39:19No.
39:23No.
39:24No.
39:25No.
39:27No.
