Susan's House
Sophie, in her pajamas, is sitting in her bedroom. "When she was younger, Sophie Bremmer was a hopeless romantic."
She opens a large velvet ring box.
"She was also hopelessly naïve. Which is how she came to be married four times."
The velvet box contains four diamond rings. "The first time, to a man who liked to gamble."
Flashback to a man pushing a diamond ring across a felt table in a casino. "The second time to a man who liked to drink..."
Flashback to a man pushing a diamond ring across a bar. "The third time to a man who liked other men."
Flashback to a man dressed in a bright flowered shirt pushing a diamond ring across a table in a fancy restaurant. "And the fourth time, to the same man she married the second time."
Flashback to the second man pushing a diamond ring across the bar, then taking a drink. In present time, Sophie looks at all four rings. "Yes, Sophie was tired of having her heart broken, so she decided she would never get married again. And then, one night..."
Morty: "Sophie!" "...she had a visitor."
Outside, standing on the front walk, is Morty. Morty: "Sophie!"
Susan comes out the back door. Susan: "Morty? What are you doing?"
Morty: "I, I, I need to, I need to talk to Sophie."
Susan: "Now? Are you drunk?"
Morty: "Uh, just, just a little. How are you, Susan?"
Susan leads Morty inside. Sophie watches from her upstairs window. Susan leads Morty into the living room and closes the door leading to the family room. Morty: "I got, I got to speak to, uh, Sophie."
Susan: "Are you crazy? It’s one o抍lock in the morning. She’s sleeping."
Sophie comes downstairs and eavesdrops. Morty: "I’m gonna, I’m gonna ask her to, to marry me."
Susan: "What?"
Morty: "Well, I thought I could be happy. The restaurant is starting to make money. I just, I just bought a new jet ski. My, my cholesterol is down, but none of it’s any fun without her."
Susan: "Oh, Morty. I just don’t think it’s gonna happen. She’s moved
on. Why don't you just sit down. I’m gonna call you a cab."
Sophie walks in. Morty: "Sophie."
Sophie: "Your doctor told you not to drink."
Morty: "Well, there are, there are times when you need, uh, when you need liquid courage."
Morty hands Sophie a ring box. Sophie opens it. Sophie: "Oh! Oh! Did this ring belong to Dolores?"
Susan: "You gave her your dead wife’s ring?"
Morty: "It’s a, it's a three-carat diamond. I mean, she should, you know, she shouldn't care if it’s used. So, what do you say, Soph?"
Sophie: "All right."
Morty: "Really?"
Susan: "Really?"
Sophie: "Yeah."
Morty leans in to kiss her and Sophie holds a hand in between them.
Sophie: "Oh, no, see, you gotta do it officially. You know."
Morty: "Oh, oh. Um."
Susan: "Yeah, um, oh, here."
Susan grabs a pillow and takes it to Morty. She puts it on the floor where Morty kneels on it. Morty: "Sophie, would you do me the honor of, of marrying me?"
"Sophie Bremmer was still a hopeless romantic."
Sophie: "On one condition. Tomorrow we trade this in for a ring of my own. And I want a bigger diamond than Dolores got."
Morty turns to look at Susan, who gives him a shrug. He turns back to Sophie, a forced-look smile on his face. "But she was no longer than me."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There's a montage of wedding photos of Paul and Mary Alice, Bree and Rex, Tom and Lynette, and Carlos and Gabrielle. "Marriage is a simple concept. Basically, it’s a contract between two people. It binds them together for life in the hopes that they can live happily ever after. Sadly, some contracts were made to be broken." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gabrielle's House
In the living room, Gabrielle throws glass knick knack at Carlos. As he ducks to avoid getting hit, they smash on the wall behind him.
Carlos: "I did not mess with your birth control."
Gabrielle: "Really?"
Carlos: "Really!"
Gabrielle walks up to Carlos with the birth control package. Gabrielle: "Look. It’s been pulled apart and put back together."
Carlos: "It’s probably a manufacturing defect."
Gabrielle: "You can still see the glue marks."
Carlos: "I’m telling you, I didn’t do it."
Gabrielle: "Don’t insult me, Carlos. You’re been whining about wanting a baby for months. Who else would it have been?"
Carlos: "I don’t, I, oh no."
Gabrielle: "What?"
Carlos: "Mama."
Gabrielle: "Oh, please."
Carlos: "Hey, it’s possible. I mean you buy that stuff in bulk, six months at a time, right?"
Gabrielle: "Yeah. So?"
Carlos: "Before the accident I told her how much I wanted a child and she said that she would take care of it. I just thought that she would talk to you. Baby, I am so sorry."
Gabrielle: "That bitch! I can’t believe her."
Carlos: "I loved her, but even I had issues sometimes. I mean she could be very controlling."
Gabrielle: "Reaching out from the grave to screw with me. God, she’s good!"
Gabrielle walks to her purse. She puts on her sunglasses. Carlos: "Where are you going?"
Gabrielle: "I feel a wave of morning sickness coming on, and I want to be standing on your mother's grave when it hits."
Gabrielle storms out of the house. Carlos smiles and lies down on the couch. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lynette's House
In the kitchen, Lynette is feeding the baby. Tom comes in. Tom: "Hey, honey. I’m gonna be home late tonight. Peterson wants to take a bunch of us out for drinks."
Lynette: "Oh, that’s fine. Uh, I wanted to talk to you about something."
Tom: "What?"
From outside, a horn honks.
Lynette: "Oh, that’s your carpool. You gotta go, never mind."
Tom: "Lynette, what is it?"
Lynette: "It’s, it's nothing."
Tom: "Okay."
Lynette: "It’s just - we haven’t had sex in ten days and the longest we‘re ever gone before is nine."
From outside, a horn honks. Tom: "Are you sure? I mean, didn’t, didn't we do it last Thursday?"
Lynette: "We started to but then, you fell asleep."
Tom: "Is this why you’re so worried? Because we can do it tonight if you want to."
Lynette: "Whatever."
Tom: "No, no, I’re got ten days pent up in me. We are doing it tonight! You have nothing to worry about."
Someone knocks on the front door. Tom: "Oh crap. You know what, I forgot my briefcase. Can you just tell them that I’ll be right there."
Lynette: "Yeah, sure."
Tom runs upstairs and Lynette opens the door. Lynette: "Oh."
Annabel walks in. Annabel: "Hey, Lynette."
Lynette: "Hey."
Annabel: "So is Tom almost ready?"
Lynette: "Yeah, he’s just getting his briefcase."
Two short beeps are heard. Annabel: "Oh, sorry."
Annabel pulls out her phone and checks the screen. Lynette looks at how nicely Annabel is dressed then looks at how she is dressed in her old sweats. Tom comes down the stairs, kisses Lynette, and runs out the door. Annabel follows Tom as she turns and smiles at Lynette. Annabel: "Bye."
Lynette: "Bye." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Susan's House, Outside
Sophie is smiling and admiring her engagement ring. Behind her, Morty is struggling as he carries Sophie’s suitcases to his car.
Morty: "I got it. I, I got it."
Susan and Julie come out of the house. Sophie approaches Susan.
Sophie: "Thank you for having me. I’m gonna miss you both so much."
Sophie hugs Susan and Julie. Susan: "Oh, us too. The house will feel just empty without you."
Julie: "Can’t you guys just stay a little longer?"
Susan: "Oh, no.. no.. no. They want to get their new life together started. We don’t wanna hold these crazy kids back."
Susan leads Sophie toward Morty’s car. She opens the door for her mother. Sophie laughs while getting in the car. Susan goes over to Morty and hugs him. Susan: "Bye Morty."
Morty: "Uh, listen. I hope, I hope it’s okay but your mom told me some of the stuff that you’re been going through with, you know, the plumbing guy across the street."
Susan: "She did, huh?"
Morty: "Yeah, um, don't, don’t give up on him. I mean, if I, if I had given up, I wouldn’t be here now with this lovely lady."
Susan: "Did she tell you that he served time in prison for manslaughter?"
Morty: "No, no, she left, she left that part out."
Susan: "I don’t suppose she told you he was a drug dealer?"
Morty: "I don't, I don’t recall that."
Sophie gets out of the car and approaches Morty and Susan. Sophie: "Will you stop? You don’t know the whole story."
Susan: "Mother!"
Sophie: "I went over there and I told him how much you love him."
Susan: "What? What were you thinking?"
Julie: "What did he say?"
Susan: "Yeah. What did he say?"
Sophie: "I think I walked in on him at a very bad time. Someone close to him had just died."
Susan: "Oh, God. Really?"
Sophie: "He could use a shoulder to cry on. Can I have one more hug? Please, I can’t stand it."
Susan hugs Sophie. She looks across the street at Mike’s house and sees him come out. He sees her as he goes to his mailbox and their eyes meet. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Restaurant
Bree and George are having lunch. Bree takes a bite of food. Bree: "Mmm. Oh George. You have got to taste this. Mmm. It’s a little messy but..."
George: "Mmm. I can’t wait."
Bree takes a forkful and passes it to George. George: "Mmm. Is that fennel seed? It’s fantastic."
Bree: "I don’t know, but anything that good has got to be sinful."
George: "Isn’t this fun trying different dishes? Opening your mind to new experiences?"
Bree: "Mmm. Rex just hates these cook’s stores. He likes to stay at home with the same old plate of spaghetti and a mug of root beer."
They both laugh. They both take another bite of food. George gazes at her. When she looks at him again, he looks down at his plate.
George: "So how about this marinara sauce? I think it’s the best I’ve ever had."
Bree: "I had one better, but that was in Italy."
George: "Mmm. Been to Italy?"
Bree: "Um huh. Rex and I took a vacation there right before the kids were born. We had so much fun in those first few years. I guess it was just easier to be happy back then. I don’t know why I just said that. No more wine for me."
George: "Maybe we should go to Italy."
Bree: "What?"
George: "Wouldn’t that be a hoot? All those museum and cathedrals and fantastic retories. We could just make pigs of ourselves."
Bree: "I can’t go on a trip with you, George."
George: "Why not?"
Bree: "I’m married. People would talk."
George: "You’re right. I’m sorry. It's a bad idea."
Bree: "Oh don’t worry about it. Here, I want you to try one of these clams. I bet they’re as good as the marinara sauce."
Bree laughs as she holds a forkful up for George to taste. She sees Edie sitting at another table and she waves. Edie waves back and watches as Bree spoon feeds George. George: "Mmm. You are absolutely right. When it’s that good, it's just gotta be sinful."
On the word "sinful," Bree looks over guiltily at Edie who smiles knowingly at her. George: "Mmm!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lynette's House, Nighttime
Lynette enters the living room, carrying the baby. The boys are on the couch, watching TV. Lynette: "Okay boys. It’s seven o'clock. It’s time for bed. Excuse me, let's go."
Boys: "Why do we have to go to bed so early?"
Lynette: "I told you, honey. Daddy and I have a special meeting tonight. Go on. Come on. Love you."
The boys go upstairs, whining. Later, Tom walks in the front door and puts down his briefcase, picks up the mail and walks toward the living room. Lynette walks up and grabs him from behind. Lynette: "Hi."
She begins kissing the back of his neck. Tom: "Whoa. Hi. Oh, all right, this is the tenth day. Hey, honey, give me a second the let the office wear off. Okay, I’m in."
Tom turns and begins kissing Lynette who fully responds. He picks up Lynette and sits her on the back of the couch. He stops kissing her and looks as though something is bothering him. Lynette: "What are you thinking?"
Tom: "I was wondering what that smell is."
Lynette: "Oh, it’s probably baby drool."
Lynette pulls off her shirt and falls back on the couch. Lynette: "There. Now you have easier access. Whoo hoo!"
Tom: "Incoming!"
Tom falls on top of Lynette and they begin kissing again. Tom suddenly stops. Lynette: "What?"
Tom: "Wow, that smell really, really soaked though, huh?"
Lynette: "Yes. It soaked through a little. That is the nature of baby throw up. Do you want me to wear a haz-mat suit or are you gonna be okay?"
Tom: "No, no, no I just like it when you’re all clean and in your sexy clothes."
Lynette (laughing): "I don’t own anything clean" (she hits Tom with his tie), "and sexy" (hits him again), "everything is either covered in baby spit" (hits him again), "or chunks of melted crayon." (hits him again)
Tom: "Okay, okay, I said I was sorry."
Lynette: "You make me feel like I just got off the shrimp boat, for God‘s sakes."
Tom: " Honey, honey, I said I’m sorry. It’s just that, you know, guys sometimes like it when women, you know, put a little effort into things."
Lynette sighs. Tom: "Okay, um, can we just go back to the kissing thing? Please, can we try that?"
Lynette: "Fine."
They begin kissing again. The baby begins to cry. Lynette: "Okay, off."
Lynette pushes Tom off. The baby continues to cry. Tom: "Okay."
Boys (yelling): "Mom, the baby’s up. Mom! Mom! Mom!" --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mr. Shaw's Car, Nighttime
Paul Young is sitting in the passenger seat of the investigator's car. Paul: "Susan Mayer hired you?"
Mr. Shaw: "I know. She decided to stop poking around in your life and call me, of all people. Lucky for you I’re got the biggest ad in the phone book."
Paul: "What am I gonna do?"
Mr. Shaw: "Run. Pack up your kid and get out of town."
Paul: "That’s tricky. My son doesn’t want to move. He can be pretty insistent."
Mr. Shaw: "Well, I can throw her off the scent for a while. "
Paul: "Fine."
Mr. Shaw: "All right, then. Tell me exactly what it is you want this woman to believe." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Susan's House
Mr. Shaw is sitting at Susan's kitchen table, reading from a file. Mr. Shaw: "She was born Angela. When she was a teenager she changed her name to Mary Alice. Now on my application it says that she was named after a relative that she no longer speaks to. Now, here’s her birth certificate and her Utah petition for a legal name change."
Susan: "What about Dana?"
Mr. Shaw: "There was a record of another child, a girl, Dana Marie Young, died at eighteen months. Apparently from some kind of fall."
Susan: "It was all true, everything he said. How could I have been so wrong?"
Mr. Shaw: "Hmm. Well, I’m gonna need a check."
Susan: "Oh, of course."
Susan walks to her purse. While looking in the purse, she looks out the window across the street at Mike Delfino’s house. Susan: "Actually, before you go I need you to check into someone else’s background. There’s this plumber I know..." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Park
John is raking leaves. Gabrielle approaches him. John: "Hey, did you get my messages?"
Gabrielle: "Yeah, I didn’t want to call you back because I wanted to talk to you in person. I have some potentially upsetting news."
John: "Come on, Mrs. Solis. I mean, you can tell me. I can handle it."
Gabrielle: "I’m pregnant and it might be yours."
John looks shocked. Wide shot of John yelling and kicking the leaves he had been raking, He picks up the garbage bags and tosses them.
Gabrielle shrieks. John: "I can barely afford my new dirt bike. How am I gonna handle child support?"
Gabrielle: "I don’t even know for sure if it’s yours, so relax. And I didn’t come here to watch you freak out!"
John: "Well, why did you come here?"
Gabrielle: "Because I want to make sure you let me protect you."
John: "From who?"
Gabrielle: "Uh, Carlos, your parents. John, something like this could ruin your life. That’s why you have to keep quiet about our affair. There is no point in this catastrophe taking both of us down."
John: "Thank you."
Gabrielle: "Forget about it."
John: "I should have worn a condom."
Gabrielle: "Yeah. That would have been helpful." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Susan's House
Susan paces while Julie sits at the table with a file in front of her. Julie: "You hired a private investigator?"
Susan: "I can’t trust Mike and I want to find out what really happened. From a source that doesn’t have an agenda. Now open it up."
Julie: "Okay. Ready?"
Susan: "Go."
Julie begins opening the file. Susan: "Stop!"
Julie: "What?"
Susan: "Um, okay, If, if, if you find out something really bad, just try to put a positive spin on it.""
Julie opens the file and begins to read while Susan continues to pace. Julie: "Okay. I have some good news and some bad news."
Susan: "Give me the bad news first."
Julie: "The guy Mike killed was a cop."
Susan: "Oh my God. Oh my God! Okay, give me the good news."
Julie: "There is none."
Susan: "What?"
Julie: "You told me to spin it. I did the best I could."
Susan: "Oh forget it, just let me look at it myself."
Susan picks up newspaper clippings. One headline reads "Drug Dealer Kills Cop." Another headline reads "Hundreds Mourn Slain Officer."
Susan picks up a picture of an unshaven Mike, dressed in an orange jumpsuit, being taken away by officers. In the background of the picture stand an elderly man and a young woman. It’s Noah and Kendra. Susan: "I can’t believe it."
Julie: "What is it?"
Susan shows the picture to Julie. She points to the young woman.
Susan: "I know her." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Noah's House, Outside
Kendra is on the porch overlooking the vast garden. She sees Mike and her father talking in the distance. She goes down into the yard to where Mike and Noah are. Kendra: "What’s going on here? You two just won’t stop, will you?
Deirdre’s dead. It doesn’t matter who killed her, just let it go."
Mike: "It’s not that easy, Kendra."
Kendra: "Why? My sister hated you, both of you. She said so."
Noah: "It was the drugs talking."
Kendra: "Right, right. The drugs. Deirdre humiliated this family and
she threw our love back in our faces. She knew it and she couldn’t have
cared less."
Noah: "Are you done?"
Kendra: "No. I want to know what your plan is."
Mike: "We’re just talking."
Kendra: "I don’t believe you."
Mike: "Then don’t ask."
Kendra leaves. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bree's House
Bree and Rex come out the front door.
Rex: "Of course, I don’t want a new cardiologist, but Lee’s been
conducting tests for weeks. He should have been able to figure out
what's wrong with me by now."
Bree: "Honey, we socialize with them. What am I gonna say to Helen?"
Rex: "All I know is I’re never felt worse. And I’re gotta do
something."
As they approach their car at the curb, Bree sees Edie across the
street.
Bree: "Um, I, uh, I have to talk to Edie."
She begins to walk away.
Rex: "Uh, Bree, we’re gonna be late."
Bree: "Oh. It'll just take a second. I need to um, get uh, a recipe."
Bree runs across the street and catches up with Edie.
Bree: "Edie, hi."
Edie: "Hi."
Bree: "I saw you at Fredo’s yesterday."
Edie: "Yeah, I saw you too. Naughty, naughty!"
Bree: "I beg your pardon?"
Edie: "The guy. The one you were spoon feeding. Not bad, a little
petite for my taste, but then again, I’m not the one sleeping with
him."
Bree: "Okay, this is exactly what I was afraid of. George and I are
just friends."
Edie: "Hey, I’m not judging you. I get it. Rex was sticking it to that
hooker housewife. It's payback time."
Bree: "You have got the wrong idea. That man is my pharmacist."
Edie: "You can have an affair with anyone and you chose a phamacist?
You are such a Republican."
Bree: "I am not having an affair. George and I, we just talk. He’s a
very good listener and I share my hopes and dreams with him and my
innermost thoughts, and, and that’s all there is to it and you have to
believe me."
Edie: "Okay, I believe you."
Bree: "Thank you. I’m glad we cleared this up. I know it must have
looked strange and I, I didn’t want you to think that I was cheating on
my husband."
Edie: "But you sort of are."
Bree: "Excuse me?"
Edie: "Oh, come on, Bree. You’re telling this guy your innermost
thoughts, your hopes, your dreams? Sex aside, it sounds like you’re
pretty intimate with a guy who is not your husband."
Bree: "Oh, I mean everybody needs someone to talk to."
Rex honks the horn.
Edie: "Well, what's wrong with talking to Rex?"
Edie smiles and walks away.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Martha Huber's House
Felicia is on the phone. The answering machine picks up the other line.
Paul: "We’re not home, please leave a message."
Felicia: "Hello Zach? It’s Felicia Tilman. I do so enjoy our little
visits and I haven’t seen you for a few days."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Paul's House
Paul sits by the phone, listening to Felicia on the answering machine.
Felicia: "Hope everything is all right."
Paul picks up the phone.
Paul: "Zach’s not feeling well."
Felicia: "Oh. Paul."
Paul: "And I don’t think it’s appropriate that he spends so much time
at your house."
Paul hangs up the phone. He then walks into Zach's room, carrying a
tray with two cups of cocoa on it.
Zach is lying in bed, dozing.
Paul: "I made us some cocoa. How are you feeling?"
Zach: "I’re felt awful for two days now. Think I should see a doctor?"
Zach reaches for the cup nearest him. Paul grabs his hand and leads his
hand to the other cup. Zach slowly brings the cup to his lips and
drinks.
Paul: "It’s probably just a touch of the flu. We’ll keep an eye on it.
It’s this house, Zach. I feel it too. It isn’t healthy for us to stay
here."
Zach: "I told you. I’m not moving."
Zach is falling back to sleep.
Paul: "It would be for your own good."
Paul walks briskly to the bookcase in the living room, takes down some
framed photos, and puts them in a suitcase.
Paul (voice over): "You can’t keep running around doing the kinds of
things you are doing. Susan Mayer’s kitchen for example. People are
gonna catch on."
Zach (barely audible): "Yes."
Paul: "Wouldn’t it be great to just start over? Somewhere in the
country. You could meet some new friends. Maybe even meet a new girl."
Zach falls back to sleep and begins to drop the cup. Paul grabs it.
Paul: "How about I let you sleep on it? We’ll talk about moving
tomorrow."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shopping Center, Outside
Lynette, holding baby Penny, closes the car door. She starts down the sidewalk, passing by a store entitled "Nighttime Necessities." Lynette stops to look at the models in the window, which are wearing naughty-looking maid outfits. "The lack of passion in her marriage had become an unpleasant reality for Lynette. Then one day it occurred to her the best way to fight reality was with a little fantasy."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lynette's House, Nighttime
Lynette comes downstairs wearing the French maid costume. "Of course, all the fantasy in the world won’t do you any good if no one shows up to enjoy it."
Lynette poses on the back of the couch. Next she lies on the back of the couch, yawning. Next, she is sitting on the couch pouring wine and looking towards the door. Next she has a glass of wine and is walking around dusting. She tosses the duster and continues to look toward the front door. Next she is lying on the couch pouring the last of the wine into her cup and drinking it. She falls asleep. The front door opens. Tom walks in with another man. Tom: "Here we go."
Man: "I really feel bad about putting you out like this, Tom."
Tom: "You’re not putting anybody out. You’re been flying all day, why stay in some hotel. I just hope you don’t mind sleeping on the sofa."
They approach the couch and see Lynette fast asleep in a very unlade like position. Man: "Yeah, the sofa should be fine."
In the morning, Lynette is cleaning up breakfast when she knocks a cup over. Tom comes in fixing his tie.
Tom: "Hey, honey, why don’t you just let the maid get that."
Lynette: "Oh, ha, ha ha, not funny, Tom."
Tom: "Oh by the way, Gary is showering. He asked if you could just bring him a clean towel and your riding crop."
Lynette passes behind Tom and kicks him in the butt.
Tom (laughing): "Come on."
Lynette: "No, I’m glad that you find my humiliation so entertaining."
Tom: "Honey, you were wearing a French maid’s costume. I mean, c'mon, what were you thinking?"
Lynette: "I was thinking our marriage was in trouble and one of us ought to do something to try and save it."
Tom: "Whoa. Since when is our marriage in trouble? Okay so we haven’t had sex for a few days. Big deal, it happens."
Outside, a horn honks. Lynette: "Oh, that Annabel. How ironic."
Tom: "How is Annabel relevant to this conversation?"
Lynette: "Because she now comes to this house every morning to remind of you of what I’m not."
Tom: "What?"
Lynette: "She’s the fantasy, Tom. The hot woman that you work with every day. With her manicured nails and her designer outfits. I am the reality. The wife who never wears make up and whose clothes smell like a hamper."
Tom: "Okay, this may be the stupidest thing you’re ever said."
Lynette: "I used to be the fantasy. There was a time that I didn’t need a maid’s outfit because I knew I was enough for you. Even wearing a smelly T- shirt. And clearly, that’s no longer the case."
Lynette tears up. Tom: "Okay, honey. I don’t know what to say. Look, if there’s a way for me to fix this I will do it. Just tell me and I will do it."
Lynette: "No there’s nothing to fix. We’re changed. That’s all I’m saying."
Gary comes downstairs. From outside, the horn honks again.
Gary: "You ready?"
Lynette: "You should go. You don’t want to keep Annabel waiting."
Tom leaves.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gabrielle's House
Gabrielle and Carlos are in the bathroom. Carlos is in the tub while Gabrielle sits off to the side, pouring hot sauce into her salsa.
Carlos: "You be careful with that. You’ll give the baby heartburn."
Gabrielle: "I can’t get it hot enough. My hormones are killing my taste buds."
Carlos: "You’re been paying more attention to your food than you have to me lately."
Gabrielle: "I plan on getting really fat as a tribute to your mother."
Gabrielle picks up her chips and salsa and hot sauce and walks out. Outside, Gabrielle is sitting on her front porch pouring more hot sauce into the salsa. John’s truck drives up. John gets out and Gabrielle runs down to him.
Gabrielle: "John, what are you doing here?"
John: "I’re been doing some serious thinking about the baby."
Gabrielle: "Really? Why?"
John: "Because, there’s a good chance that it’s mine. And if it is, I want to do the right thing."
Gabrielle: "No, no, no. Nobody expects you to do the right thing."
John: "Yeah, I kinda figured you’d try to blow me off. That’s why I’m going directly to Mr. Solis."
John goes past Gabrielle.
Gabrielle: "What? Are you crazy? He would kill us both."
John: "He and I need to hash this out, man to man. It’s what’s best for the baby."
John tries to go past Gabrielle. She pushes him back.
Gabrielle: "John!"
John: "Well, are you gonna go get him, or am I?"
Gabrielle: "Okay, you win. Wait right here."
Gabrielle turns and goes inside. She looks out the front door for a moment, then races up the stairs. She goes into the bathroom where Carlos is just climbing out of the tub.
Gabrielle: "Uh, don’t get out."
Carlos: "Why?"
Gabrielle: "Because, I was going to get in. Yeah. You see pregnant women have very strong urges."
Carlos: "All right."
Gabrielle: "Okay, I’m gonna freshen up, and I’ll be right back."
Carlos: "Okay."
Gabrielle: "You sit. Sit. I’m turning on some music."
Gabrielle turns on the music, loud. Carlos smiles and sinks lower into the tub.
Gabrielle runs downstairs and out the front door. She locks the door as she exits it. John runs up to her as she turns back around.
Gabrielle: "Um, Carlos is unavailable at the moment."
John reaches pass Gabrielle and tries the door.
John: "You’re lying."
Gabrielle: "John, what are you doing?"
John walks pass Gabrielle and begins banging on the door.
John: "Mr. Solis!"
Gabrielle: "John, stop it."
John: " Mr. Solis, open up!"
Gabrielle: "John!"
In the bathtub, Carlos is relaxing, listening to the loud music. On the porch, John picks up a chair. Gabrielle runs over.
Gabrielle: "What are you doing. John! John!"
John: "Mrs. Solis, get out of the way!"
Gabrielle: " What are you doing? John, no!"
John: "Get out of the way! Mrs. Solis."
John holds up the chair up to throw in through the front window. Gabrielle sees her chips and salsa she was eating earlier. She picks up the salsa and throws it in John’s face.
John drops the chair and falls backwards over the porch railing, screaming. Gabrielle looks on in horror. Gabrielle: "Oh my God!"
In the bathroom, Carlos is still in the tub playing with the water. Outside, Gabrielle is on the front lawn helping John up.
John (holding his eyes): "My God! It burns."
Gabrielle: "Oh. I’m sorry. But it’s just salsa."
John: "It feels like acid!"
Gabrielle: "Really? I’m been finding it so bland."
John (yelling) "Mr. Solis!"
Gabrielle: "John!"
John: "Mr. Solis, come out here I need to talk to you!"
Gabrielle: "John! Shut up! Shut the hell up! Listen to me. You are never gonna be the father of this baby. No matter what the paternity tests say, it’s Carlos? child."
John: "How can you say that?"
Gabrielle: "Because Carlos can provide, John. He will give this baby everything. Piano lessons and summer camp and, and the best colleges. He can raise this child the way a child deserves to be raised. You can‘t."
John: "This isn’t about money. Okay, this is about what is best for the baby."
Gabrielle: "If you want what’s best for the baby then you will help me. Okay? Help me to make sure that this kid does not grow up poor like I did."
Carlos come out on the front porch, dressed in a robe. Carlos: "What’s taking you? Oh, hey John. What are you doing here?"
Gabrielle: "Uh, he..."
John: "Justin was thinking the hydrangeas needed replacing. He wanted me to come by for a second opinion."
Carlos: "Your friend is a good kid. But he’s not half the gardener you were. You should come back and work for us. I mean, you’re practically family."
John: "Thanks, Mr. Solis."
John looks at Carlos smiling, then at the worried look on Gabrielle’s face, then walks away. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Martha Huber's House, Outside
Felicia sits on the front porch, reading. She sees Paul get into his car and drive away. She then goes to his house and rings the bell. Felicia: "Zach. Are you here?"
Felicia then opens the garage door and goes into the house. She sees the living room is filled with packed boxes. She goes into Zach’s room and sees him fast asleep. She runs to him and pulls him over. She listens to his breathing and takes his pulse.
Felicia then goes to the kitchen, searching the cupboards. She opens a drawer and pulls out an oven mitt. She puts her hand inside and pulls out a pill bottle. She goes back into Zach’s room and holds his head in her hands.
Felicia: "I have to do this, dear. I know you will forgive me."
Felicia slaps Zach, hard. He awakens.
Felicia helps Zach walk out of the house, supporting him as he stumbles. Inside, by the drawer where she found the oven mitt, she left the drawer open and left a note on the counter above the drawer. The note reads: "Paul. Zach is with me. Felicia." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lynette's House, Nighttime

Lynette: "Hey."
Tom: "Are the boys asleep?"
Lynette: "Tucked in tight."
Tom: "And Penny?"
Lynette: "Sound asleep."
Tom pulls a timer out of his pocket. He winds it up and puts it on the couch next to Lynette.
Tom: "Okay, when this thing goes off, meet me in the bedroom."
Tom begins going upstairs.
Lynette: "Tom, what is this?"
Tom: "Ah ah ah ah. Wait till it goes off."
Tom runs upstairs. Later, Lynette stands outside the bedroom door, holding the ticking timer. It goes off.
Lynette: "All right. I’m coming in."
She enters the bedroom looking for Tom. He steps into the lighted doorway of the bathroom, dressed in the briefest of briefs.
Lynette: "Ahhhh! Oh my God!!"
Tom: "You want fantasy, I give you fantasy."
Lynette: "Oh!"
Tom: "Come to me woman. Prepare to be boarded."
Lynette laughs delightedly. Tom makes a beeline for the bed.
Tom: "Please, will you make it fast, these things are just chaffing.
Lynette: "Ah. I, uh, I kinda like it."
Tom: "Kill the lights."
Lynette: "No."
Tom: "Please"
Lynette: "I’m not turning off the lights."
Tom: "Please."
Lynette: "No."
Tom: "Oh, please."
Lynette: "No, no, no."

Felicia is sitting at her kitchen table having coffee. She glances at a stack of papers on the table beside her. There's a knock on the door. Felicia: "It’s open. Oh, Paul, it’s you. I’m so glad. I have some papers I want you to look at."
Paul: "Where’s my son?"
Felicia: "Upstairs. Sleeping off those tranquilizers you gave him."
Paul: "I don’t know what you think you are doing but I’m taking my son and going."
Felicia: "I am not my sister, Paul, you do not want to screw with me. Martha kept a journal. Every drab event of her drab life meticulously documented. Including her discover that you and your wife stole a baby. A baby named Dana."
Paul picks up several sheets of the papes of Martha’s journal. Portions of the pages are highlighted. Felicia: "I’m sorry if the copies are hard to read. I hid the originals in a safe place. It seemed like a reasonable precaution since you murdered Martha and all. Would you like a cookie?"
Paul sits down, looking over the papers. Felicia: "Suit yourself. Now I have a little proposition for you."
Paul: "These are the fantasies of a bored lonely woman. They prove nothing."
Paul begins getting up. Felicia puts her hand on his arm and stops him. Felicia: "The only reason the police haven’t caught you yet is because they have no reason to suspect you. But once they find out that Martha was blackmailing Angela, sorry, Mary Alice."
Paul: "What is it you want?"
Felicia: "The same thing you want. For you to leave town, change your name, and start your life over again somewhere far away from here."
Paul: "If you’re so sure of yourself, why don’t you just turn me in?"
Felicia: "Because Zach would never forgive me. And it’s important that we be on good terms, seeing as how he's gonna be living with me now."
Paul: "What?"
Felicia: "Your bags are packed. You’re about to become a fugitive. Is that the kind of life you want for your son? The two of you spending every night in a different town? No. You’re a better father than that."
Paul: "I can’t just leave him."
Felicia: "You stole him so that he could have a better life. That was a noble act, Paul. Truly. And it’s time for you to be noble again."
Paul: "Can I at least say goodbye?"
Felicia: "Did you allow me to say goodbye to Martha?"
Paul turns to look at Felicia. He walks out of the house and slams the door. Felicia pulls up her right hand, which had been under the table. In her hand is a large kitchen knife. She heaves a sigh. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Noah's House, Outside
Susan drives up to Kendra’s home. A security guard comes running up to Susan’s car. Susan: "Oh, hi. Um, I’m looking for Kendra Taylor."
Security Guard: "I’m sorry. You’re gonna have to leave."
Susan: "Oh. Oh, you don’t understand."
Susan starts getting out of the car.
Susan: "See, I can't just drive away."
The security guard comes around to the driver’s side.
Security Guard: "Please, back in the car."
Susan gets out of the car and walks up to him. She looks at his nametag.
Susan: "Look, um, Bob. Let me try to explain."
Bob: "In the car."
Susan: "See, the thing is, this is maybe my last chance to find out if I can be with the man I love."
Bob: "Ma抋m."
She puts her hands on his shoulders.
Susan: "And, Bob, I can’t begin to tell you how much that means to me. So I’m gonna walk up to that house and you’re gonna let me and you know why? Because behind that badge and that just big ou could crush me
like a fly' chest, there’s a heart. A heart that believes in love."
Bob slams Susan on the hood of her car with her hands behind her.
Bob: "Just get in the damn car!"
Susan: "It’s not my fault you don’t have love in your life."
Kendra walks up.
Kendra: "Susan?"
Susan: "Hi, Kendra."
She waves with her free hand.
Later, Susan, Kendra, and Noah are sitting on the porch. She has Mike’s file open on the table. Susan: "And despite the evidence, despite all that's been laid out in front of me, I just can’t help thinking there’s more to the story. Does it sound stupid?"
Kendra: "No, no, of course not."
Noah: "Unfortunately, you’re got the whole story right here."
Noah pushes the file back to Susan. Kendra turns away and get up.
Susan: "But Mike’s lawyer pleaded self defense and if that’s the case-"
Noah: "Delfino sold black tar heroin to my daughter. He killed the cop that tried to bust him. Got convicted and did his time. End of story."
Kendra: "Dad."
Noah: "She deserves to hear the truth, however, awful. I’m sorry, Ms. Mayer. I really am."
Susan: "I, I appreciate you talking to me."
Susan grabs the file and walks away.
Kendra: "What the hell was that?"
Noah: "If she knew the truth she’d go running back to him. She might talk him out of doing his job. I can’t risk that. I just don’t have the time."
Noah kisses Kendra’s forehead and walks into the house. Susan gets into her car. She tosses her purse and the file onto the floor. She starts the engine. Kendra runs up and gets into the passenger seat. Kendra: "Quick, drive around the corner. We need to talk." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bree's House

Bree: "What’s the matter. You’re been mopey all day."
Rex: "I’m sorry. I’m just worried about the test results. If I don’t find out what’s wrong with me soon, I’m gonna lose my mind."
Bree: "Oh, honey."
Rex: "You must get tired of hearing me complain."
Bree: "No, no not at all. I think we should talk about it. In fact, I think, maybe, we don’t talk enough."
Rex: "I guess."
Bree: "Why don’t we start doing things together again, as a couple."
Rex: "Mm hmm."
Bree: "I think that as soon as you’re well enough we should go on a vacation. Take a trip, go somewhere fun. Remember our trip to Italy?"
Rex: "Yeah, sort of."
Bree: "Sort of? You don’t remember the glorious food and the gorgeous scenery and -"
Rex: "What I remember is sweating like a pig and wishing we hadn’t spent all our savings. So, where would you like to go?"
Bree: "It doesn’t matter. You decide."
