PREVIOUSLY ON...

GABY MADE A DISCOVERY...
OH! YOUR STOMACH
JUST KICKED ME.

I WANT YOU TO RUN
THE MIAMI OFFICE.
SO CARLOS PLAYED HARDBALL.

YOU CAN'T FIRE ME
FOR BEING PREGNANT.
I'M OFFERING YOU A PROMOTION.

IF YOU CHOOSE TO TURN IT DOWN
AND QUIT INSTEAD,

I CAN'T STOP YOU.
KATHERINE BROKE DOWN.

THE MAN I LOVE CHOSE YOU.
IT'S OVER.

WHY HAS THIS BEEN
SO HARD ON ME?
YOU LOVE HIM.

I FOUND A WAY TO SPRING YOU
FROM THIS MARRIAGE.
KARL MADE A PLAN.

IF HE VIOLATES PAROLE BY
ASSOCIATING WITH A KNOWN FELON,

THEY CAN REVOKE IT.

ALL WE NEED TO DO IS GET SOME
EX-CON IN A ROOM WITH ORSON,

TAKE SOME PICTURES,
AND IT'S BYE-BYE, ORSON.

THAT'S PERFECT! AND THEN
HE'LL HAVE TO LET ME GO.

NICK MADE A CALL.

AGENT PADILLA?
I'M THINKING ABOUT COMING IN.

AND EVIL...
DID YOU FORGET SOMETHING?

RETURNED TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

(choking)

(Mary Alice) HER NAME
WAS EMILY PORTSMITH,

AND WORD OF HER DEATH

SPREAD QUICKLY.

YOU SEE,
EVERYONE IN TOWN KNEW EMILY.

HER FAMILY WAS WELL KNOWN
AND RESPECTED,

SHE'D BEEN POPULAR IN SCHOOL...

(speaking inaudibly)

AND HER CUSTOMERS
AT THE COFFEE SHOP ADORED HER.

PEOPLE WERE SHOCKED
TO HEAR SHE'D BEEN MURDERED,

MOSTLY BECAUSE
ANOTHER YOUNG WOMAN

HAD BEEN ATTACKED
JUST A FEW WEEKS BEFORE.

YES, EVERYONE IN FAIRVIEW
NOW KNEW

A KILLER
WAS WALKING AMONG THEM.

AND THEY WOULD SOON LEARN...

HE WASN'T FINISHED.

THE NEXT DAY,

THE WOMEN OF WISTERIA LANE
GOT TOGETHER

FOR THEIR WEEKLY POKER GAME.

BUT AS IT TURNED OUT, NO ONE
WAS IN THE MOOD TO GAMBLE.

THE GIRL AT THE COFFEE SHOP
WAS STRANGLED,

AND JULIE WAS ATTACKED
THE SAME WAY.

THERE IS OBVIOUSLY
A MADMAN ON THE LOOSE.
I'M AFRAID TO LEAVE MY HOUSE
AT NIGHT.

AT LEAST NOW YOU HAVE
A BOYFRIEND TO PROTECT YOU.

ROY? THE MAN THREW OUT HIS BACK
PEELING AN ORANGE.

I'M ON MY OWN HERE.
SO WHAT DO WE DO
TO PROTECT OURSELVES?

DOWN AT THE HOSPITAL
WHERE I WORK,

THEY OFFER
A SELF-DEFENSE CLASS.

MAYBE WE SHOULD CONSIDER
TAKING THAT.
(Karen) THAT'S A GOOD IDEA.

I GUESS WE COULD,
BUT YOU KNOW MY MOTTO--

.38 SPECIAL
IS A GIRL'S BEST FRIEND.

OOH, I LOVE THE PEARL HANDLE.

IT WOULD LOOK SO GOOD
WITH MY WHITE SUIT.

SUSAN, YOU SHOULD FEEL IT.
IT'S SO LIGHT.

I DON'T TOUCH GUNS ANYMORE,

NOT SINCE I ACCIDENTALLY
GRAZED KATHERINE.

OH, STILL GOING WITH
"ACCIDENTALLY," ARE WE?

(women chuckle)

OH, HEY, HONEY. WE'RE ALL GONNA
TAKE A SELF-DEFENSE CLASS.

YOU WANNA COME WITH US?

YEAH. IT MIGHT
MAKE YOU FEEL SAFER.

WELL... I WAS TAKING OUT
THE TRASH WHEN I WAS ATTACKED.

HE CAME OUT OF NOWHERE,

AND I BLACKED OUT BEFORE
I KNEW WHAT WAS HAPPENING.

IF SOMEONE REALLY WANTS
TO GET YOU, THEY CAN GET YOU.

I'M OFF. OH, YOU'RE SEWING
PENNY'S COSTUME?

YEAH, BUT I'M READING
THE SPORTS PAGE WHILE DOING IT,

SO THEY KINDA
CANCEL EACH OTHER OUT.

OH... (clears throat)
AHEM, I GOT YOU THIS--

A PRICEY BOURBON.

IT'S 8:45 IN THE MORNING,
AND I'M PREGNANT.

I THINK I'LL PASS.

FOR CARLOS.

IT'S A "SORRY I LIED
ABOUT BEING PREGNANT" GIFT.

I DON'T NEED THAT.
I KNOW CARLOS.

HE LOSES HIS TEMPER,

THEN HE CALMS DOWN
AND THINKS RATIONALLY.

GOOD-BYE. MWAH.
I'D STILL BRING THE BOOZE.

I'M TELLING YOU, I AM
TOO VALUABLE RIGHT WHERE I AM.

THERE'S NO WAY HE'S GONNA
TRY AND SEND ME TO FLORIDA.

(all) BON VOYAGE!

WHAT'S GOING ON?

CARLOS TOLD US ABOUT
THE PROMOTION IN FLORIDA.

CONGRATULATIONS.

(squeals)

YOU ARE GOING TO BE SO MISSED
AROUND HERE!

LYNETTE, WHERE YOU GOING?
RITA WROTE YOU A GOOD-BYE POEM.

CAN I SEE YOU
IN MY OFFICE, PLEASE?

WHAT DO YOU THINK
YOU'RE DOING?

YOU KNOW I'M NOT MOVING
TO FLORIDA.

OKAY, SO THEN WE JUST, UH,
CHANGE THE BANNER TO READ,

"GOOD LUCK AND SO LONG."
NO, IT NEEDS TO READ,

"I TOLD YOU I'M NOT LEAVING.
SOMEONE GET ME A BAGEL."
LYNETTE, WHAT CAN I TELL YOU?

WE HAVE AN OPENING FOR YOU
IN OUR FLORIDA BRANCH.

BUT HERE, YOUR JOB'S
ALREADY BEEN GIVEN TO TIM.

WELL, TELL TIM
YOU MADE A MISTAKE.
I CAN'T DO THAT.

SO I GUESS THIS LEAVES YOU
NO CHOICE BUT TO QUIT.

LOOK, I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING,
AND I AM NOT GOING FOR IT.

YOU WANT ME GONE,
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO FIRE ME.

AND OPEN MYSELF UP TO A LAWSUIT
BY FIRING A PREGNANT WOMAN?

I DON'T THINK SO.

THEN IF YOU DON'T MIND,
I HAVE WORK TO DO.

HEY.

THESE AREN'T MY KIDS.

NO. THOSE... (chuckles)
ARE TIM'S KIDS.

THIS IS HIS OFFICE NOW.

SO...

WHAT OFFICE WILL I BE USING?

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

THESE TWINS HAVE
A BIGGER OFFICE.

ENJOY.

(knock on door)

HOW YOU DOING?

I'M OKAY.

EVERYBODY SEEMS TO THINK
WHOEVER KILLED EMILY

WAS PROBABLY THE SAME PERSON
WHO ATTACKED ME.

YEAH, THAT'S WHAT
THE POLICE ARE SAYING.

AND I THINK THAT WE SHOULD DO
EVERYTHING WE CAN TO HELP THEM.

MEANING WHAT?

MAYBE NOW IS THE TIME

TO TELL THEM ABOUT
THE MARRIED MAN YOU WERE SEEING.

HE HAD NOTHING
TO DO WITH IT.
YOU DON'T KNOW THAT.

MEN WHO CHEAT SOMETIMES HAVE
MORE THAN ONE GIRLFRIEND.

MOM, LISTEN. THERE IS NO WAY
HE COULD EVER HURT SOMEONE,

MUCH LESS KILL THEM.

(sighs deeply)

OKAY.

(whispers) IF YOU'RE SURE.

I AM. I MEAN... (sighs)

WHY WOULD HE ATTACK ME AND THEN
WANNA GET BACK TOGETHER?

WAIT. HAVE YOU STARTED
SEEING HIM AGAIN?

NO.

JULIE...
EVEN IF I DID,

IT IS MY LIFE, RIGHT?

THAT'S RIGHT.
IT IS YOUR LIFE.

IS IT JUST ME,

OR WAS LIFE MUCH LESS
COMPLICATED WHEN YOU WERE 7?

SORRY I GREW UP.

ME, TOO.

POLICE ARE CONCERNED

THAT THE STRANGLING
OF PORTSMITH

IS CONNECTED
TO A SIMILAR ATTACK

ON A FAIRVIEW WOMAN
EARLIER THIS YEAR.

ANYONE WITH INFORMATION
IS BEING ASKED TO CALL--

JUST THINK--

IF THE COPS HADN'T WASTED
SO MUCH TIME ON DANNY,

THEY MIGHT'VE CAUGHT THIS GUY
BEFORE HE DID THIS AGAIN, RIGHT?

WHAT?

I WAS THERE.

YOU WERE WHERE?

AT THE COFFEE SHOP.
(object clatters)

I GOT THERE RIGHT WHEN
THAT GIRL WAS CLOSING UP.

OH, PLEASE BE KIDDING.
NAH, I WISH I WAS.

AND I'M PRETTY SURE
I WAS HER LAST CUSTOMER.

BUT DID ANYBODY SEE YOU?

NO, I DON'T THINK SO,
BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN

THE COPS WON'T FIGURE OUT THAT
I WAS THERE. AND IF THEY DO...

YEAH, THEY'RE GONNA WANNA
COME AND TALK TO YOU AGAIN

A-AND MAYBE RUN YOUR PRINTS.

YEAH, THAT'S WHAT
I WAS THINKING.

I WAS ALSO THINKING

THAT MAYBE WE SHOULDN'T
WAIT AROUND FOR THAT TO HAPPEN.

NO. I'M NOT MOVING AGAIN.
N-NOT THIS TIME.

LOOK, ANGIE--ANGE--ANGE,
WILL YOU JUST LET ME FINISH?

NO, NO, NO, NICK,
I LIKE THIS PLACE!

I HAVE FRIENDS.
I HAVE A JOB.

I-I-I-I FEEL LIKE
A REAL PERSON HERE AGAIN.

AFTER 18 YEARS OF BEING A GHOST,
I-I DON'T WANNA GIVE THAT UP.

FINE.

(exhales deeply) ALL RIGHT,
MAYBE WE'LL GET LUCKY,

AND THE COPS
JUST WON'T COME.

BUT HONESTLY,

I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH MORE LUCK
WE GOT LEFT.

(baby crying,
dog barking in distance)

HEY.
(chuckles nervously)

(siren wailing in distance)

(sighs)

HELLO.

ARE YOU LAMAR BENJAMIN?

YOU GOT A WARRANT?

OH, NO, I'M NOT WITH THE POLICE.
MY NAME IS BREE HODGE.

YOU KNOW MY HUSBAND ORSON
FROM THE STATE PENITENTIARY.

DO YOU HAVE A MOMENT?

I GOT NOTHING BUT MOMENTS.

(chuckles)

SO YOU'RE MRS. HODGE?

DAMN.

FLOSSY DID OKAY FOR HISSELF.

UH, "FLOSSY"?

THAT'S WHAT WE CALLED ORSON

'CAUSE HE GOT US ALL
DENTAL FLOSS

AND THEN NAGGED US TO USE IT
AFTER EVERY MEAL.

(chuckles) I SEE.
PAIN IN THE ASS.

I WAS GLAD WHEN SOMEBODY USED IT
TO STRANGLE A GUARD,

AND THEY TOOK IT ALL AWAY.

(can fizzes)

SO HOW'S ORSON DOING?

WELL, UH, TO BE HONEST,
LAMAR,

LIFE ON THE OUTSIDE'S
BEEN A LITTLE HARD FOR HIM.

PEOPLE CAN BE SO JUDGMENTAL
ABOUT MEN WHO HAVE SERVED TIME.

AND IF YOU'RE A REPEAT OFFENDER,
YOU CAN FORGET IT.

YES.

WELL... (chuckles)

I'VE HEARD ORSON SPEAK VERY
FONDLY OF HIS PRISON FRIENDS,

ESPECIALLY YOU.

REALLY?

'CAUSE HE SEEMED KIND OF MAD

AFTER I USED HIM AS A SHIELD
IN THAT YARD FIGHT.

LAMAR, HE JUST TELLS THAT STORY
NOW AND LAUGHS AND LAUGHS.

(laughs)

ANYWAY, HE'S BEEN FEELING
A LITTLE BLUE,

AND I WAS HOPING YOU WOULD PAY
HIM A VISIT AND CHEER HIM UP.

SORRY.
I'D BE BREAKING MY PAROLE.

THEY CATCH ME HANGING OUT
WITH OTHER EX-CONS,

THEY CAN SEND ME
BACK TO JAIL.

REALLY? WELL,
THAT'S A SILLY RULE.

DON'T WORRY, THOUGH.

OUR HOUSE IS ON THE END
OF A VERY QUIET CUL-DE-SAC.

NO ONE WOULD EVEN KNOW
YOU STOPPED BY.

AND, OF COURSE,
I WOULD COMPENSATE YOU...

FOR YOUR TIME.

AND ANOTHER 3
WHEN YOU COME.

WHAT THE HELL?

NO HARM
IN A LITTLE SOCIAL CALL.

BUT YOU CAN'T TELL ANYBODY
I CAME.

WHEN YOU GET
TO KNOW ME BETTER, LAMAR,

YOU'LL FIND I HAVE
NO TROUBLE...

(whispers)
KEEPING SECRETS.

HEY.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

YOUR MOM TOLD ME
YOU WERE UPSET.

I TOLD HER I KNEW HOW
TO MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER.

MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP?

THANKS, DADDY.

I KNOW THIS ONE'S GONNA TAKE
A LOT MORE THAN ICE CREAM.

I KEEP THINKING ABOUT HIM.

HE'S OUT THERE, AND...

MAYBE HE'S THINKING
ABOUT ME.

HONEY, HONEY, HE'S NOT.

HE KNOWS WHERE I LIVE. HE KNOWS
WHAT KIND OF CAR I DRIVE.

I'VE BEEN WANTING TO GO
TO THE LIBRARY,

BUT I'M AFRAID
HE'S GONNA FOLLOW ME.
LOOK, IF YOU'RE WORRIED
ABOUT YOUR CAR,

WHY DON'T WE SWITCH
FOR A WHILE?
SERIOUSLY?
I'D DRIVE YOUR FANCY CAR,

AND YOU'D DRIVE
MY TINY, LITTLE COMPACT?

HEY, THERE'S NOTHING
I WOULD NOT DO FOR MY LITTLE...

YOU HAVE
AIR CONDITIONING, RIGHT?

YEAH, THERE'S NOTHING I WOULDN'T
DO FOR MY LITTLE GIRL.

YOU OKAY?

I'M JUST HAVING A BAD DAY.

MY LIFE
HAS GOTTEN SORT OF...

COMPLICATED.

WHY?

OH, IT'S...
GROWN-UP RELATIONSHIP STUFF.

YOU WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND.

OKAY.

BUT...

SINCE YOU ASKED...

SO I THINK YOU'RE REALLY GONNA
HAVE FUN AT BRANDON'S PARTY.

I HEARD THERE'S GONNA
BE A PONY.

HEY, YOU OKAY?

I'M WORRIED
ABOUT MRS. MAYFAIR.

WHY?

SHE'S NOT GETTING
ANY YOUNGER,

AND IT'S REALLY HARD
TO MEET GUYS IN THIS TOWN.

(laughs)
WHERE DID YOU HEAR THAT?

SHE TOLD ME.

SHE ALSO SAID

MOMMY STOLE YOU FROM HER,

AND THAT MAKES MOMMY
A BAD PERSON.

BUDDY...

YOUR MOMMY IS A GREAT PERSON.

NOW WHY YOU, UH,
SIGN BRANDON'S CARD, OKAY?

AND, UH, I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

MIKE, WATCH IT.

DID YOU ACTUALLY TELL
MY 6-YEAR-OLD SON

THAT HIS MOTHER'S
A BAD PERSON?

WELL, I WOULD'VE USED
MORE COLORFUL LANGUAGE,

BUT LIKE YOU SAID,
HE'S ONLY 6.

YOU'VE NEVER REALLY
SEEN ME GET ANGRY.

BUT IF YOU WANT TO,

JUST TALK TO MY SON
ONE MORE TIME.

THEN YOU'LL KNOW
WHAT I'M CAPABLE OF.

MIKE.

I LOVE M.J. I-I-I WOULD NEVER
DO ANYTHING TO HURT HIM.

ONE MORE TIME.

(horns honking in distance)

(gasps)

OH, JULIE. (sighs)

NO!

(cell phone vibrates)

HELLO?

HI. IT'S YOUR MOTHER.

AM I INTERRUPTING ANYTHING?

NOPE.
I'M JUST AT THE LIBRARY.

OH, REALLY. THE LIBRARY.

YEAH. I THOUGHT I'D DIVE
INTO AN OLD FAVORITE.

AND VICE VERSA, I'M SURE.

HUH?
Honey, I don't blame you.

YOU'VE GONE BACK TO THAT PLACE
BECAUSE IT SEEMS...

SAFE AND COMFORTING.
AM I RIGHT?

I GUESS.

BUT TRUST ME,
IT'S A BAD IDEA.

CAN WE TALK ABOUT THIS LATER?

I ONLY HAVE AN HOUR,
AND I REALLY WANNA FINISH.

OKAY, I WANT YOU OUT OF THERE
RIGHT NOW!

MOM, I'LL SEE YOU SOON.
(beep)

YOU BET YOU WILL.

YOU'VE BEEN A BUSY GIRL.

YOU GOT THE EX-CON BOOKED,

HIDDEN CAMERAS ALL SET UP.

COME FRIDAY NIGHT...

SHOWTIME.

SO WHAT'S THE MATTER?

WE SHOULD BE CELEBRATING.

I JUST HOPE
WE'RE BOTH CLEAR

THAT THESE PHOTOS
ARE STRICTLY FOR BLACKMAIL.

OF COURSE. WE'RE NOT ACTUALLY
GONNA SEND HIM TO PRISON.

UNLESS, I MEAN, WE HAVE TO.
NO, KARL.

EVEN IF HE CALLS OUR BLUFF,
WE ARE NOT GONNA TURN HIM IN.

EXCUSE ME. UM,
I'M LOOKING FOR THE PERSON

THAT BELONGS
TO THE LITTLE BLUE CAR.

SHE'S A REDHEAD.
WITH A MAN?

YEAH, SHE'S WITH A MAN.
THE REDHEAD'S MY DAUGHTER.

YOUR DAUGHTER? DAMN.

YOU LOOK GOOD.
THANK YOU.

SO CAN YOU TELL ME
WHAT ROOM THEY'RE IN?

I MAY NOT LOVE HIM ANYMORE,

BUT I'M NOT GONNA WIN MY FREEDOM
BY TAKING AWAY HIS.

NOW YOU'RE ANGRY.

BREE, WHEN YOU TELL ME

YOU COULD NEVER HURT
A MAN YOU USED TO LOVE,

IT DOESN'T MAKE ME ANGRY.

IT JUST REMINDS ME
WHY I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.

DON'T YOU WORRY.

NO ONE'S GONNA GET HURT.

(gasps)

(whispers) OH, MY GOD!

OH, MY GOD!

HEY, ERIC. CAN YOU TELL CARLOS
I'M HERE FOR LUNCH?

I'M GONNA RUN
TO THE LADIES' ROOM.

I'LL TELL HIM.

(pencil sharpener whirring)

(telephone rings)

HI, LYNETTE.

HI, GABY.

I'D ASK YOU IN,
BUT I DON'T THINK

THERE'S ENOUGH OXYGEN IN HERE
FOR THE BOTH OF US.

NO, IT'S, UH... COMFY.

(clears throat)

HEY.

I GET THAT CARLOS
IS TRYING TO PUNISH ME.

BUT ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
YOU GOTTA TALK TO HIM.

LYNETTE, YOU NEVER EVEN CAME TO
ME TO TELL ME YOU WERE PREGNANT.

I THINK THIS IS BETWEEN
YOU AND CARLOS.
OKAY, I KNOW YOU'RE UPSET,

BUT ME KEEPING MY PREGNANCY
SECRET WASN'T PERSONAL.
WASN'T IT?

NO. LISTEN TO ME.
TOM AND I ARE STILL IN DEBT.

I NEEDED THIS PROMOTION,
AND CARLOS HAD ALREADY

PASSED OVER A COWORKER
BECAUSE SHE WAS PREGNANT.

I COULDN'T RISK
YOUR TELLING HIM.

OH, BECAUSE YOU THOUGHT I'D
TELL CARLOS, AND HE'D FIRE YOU.

YES.

SO CLEARLY I WASN'T ENOUGH
OF A FRIEND FOR YOU TO TRUST ME.

N-NO.
BUT NOW I'M SUCH A GOOD FRIEND.

I'M THE ONLY ONE
WHO CAN FIX IT FOR YOU?

I'M GUESSING YOU'RE NOT GONNA
TALK TO CARLOS.

GOOD GUESS.

(sharpener whirring)

I CAN'T BELIEVE SHE'S DEAD.

I JUST SAW HER
A FEW DAYS AGO.

WE TALKED ABOUT
GOING TO THE MALL.

WHO FOUND HER?

THE ASSISTANT MANAGER.

I WAS LATE YESTERDAY.
I MEAN, THANK GOD.

IT WOULD'VE FREAKED ME OUT.

HEY.
HI.

WE WERE JUST TALKING
ABOUT EMILY.

YEAH, I DIDN'T REALLY
KNOW HER,

BUT I GUESS
WE'RE SORT OF CONNECTED NOW.

YOU WOULD'VE LIKED HER.
SHE WAS SUPER NICE.

I GOTTA GO HOME.

MY MOM'S SO FREAKED OUT
THAT THIS COULD'VE BEEN ME,

SHE WANTS ME AROUND.
I'LL GIVE YOU A RIDE.

WE SHOULD GO, TOO, DANNY.
UH, NO, YOU GO AHEAD.

BUT...
DON'T YOU NEED A RIDE?

UH, NAH, I'LL WALK.

I JUST WANNA TALK TO JULIE.

(sighs) SO YOU WANNA
GET SOMETHING TO EAT?

THANKS, BUT I'M NOT HUNGRY.

WELL, MAYBE YOU WANNA
GO TO EMILY'S FUNERAL TOGETHER?

EVERYBODY'S GOING.

DANNY...

I KNOW YOU LIKE ME,

BUT I CAN'T
HANG OUT WITH YOU.

WHY NOT?

I JUST CAN'T.

IT'S COMPLICATED.

IT'S 'CAUSE YOU SLEPT
WITH MY DAD, ISN'T IT?

WHO TOLD YOU THAT?

I FIGURED OUT A WHILE AGO.
IF YOU KNOW THAT,

THEN WHY IN THE WORLD
WOULD YOU STILL--
BECAUSE I LIKE YOU!

A LOT.

DO YOU NOT SEE
HOW WEIRD THAT IS?

NO, IT'S--IT'S OKAY
'CAUSE I'VE FORGIVEN YOU.

THAT'S--THAT'S NICE,

BUT IT'S STILL WEIRD.

JULIE, P--

PLEASE, I WANNA BE WITH YOU.

DANNY, I AM SO SORRY,

BUT THAT IS NEVER
GOING TO HAPPEN.

(sighs)

COME ON, IF THEY'RE GONNA COME,
THEY'RE GONNA COME.

I FEEL LIKE I SPENT MY ENTIRE
LIFE LOOKING OUT WINDOWS.

YEAH.

MAYBE IT'S TIME WE STOP.

WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?

I'M SAYING MAYBE IT'S TIME
WE THOUGHT ABOUT COMING IN.

PLEASE TELL ME
YOU DIDN'T TALK TO THEM.

OH, MY GOD!
ALL RIGHT. CALM DOWN,
ALL RIGHT? I'M NOT AN IDIOT.

I USED A PREPAID, AND THE CALL
LASTED LESS THAN A MINUTE.

THERE'S NO WAY
THEY'RE EVER GONNA FIND US.
BUT STILL,
THEY KNOW WE'RE ALIVE!

(Nick) DON'T YOU WANNA KNOW
IF THEY'RE READY TO MAKE A DEAL?
I KILLED A MAN.

THEY'LL BE READY TO MAKE A DEAL
WHEN I GOT A NEEDLE IN MY ARM

AND MY EYES ARE
ROLLED BACK IN MY HEAD!
COME ON, YOU DON'T KNOW THAT.

YOU ARE NEVER TALKING
TO THEM AGAIN! DO YOU HEAR ME?

I STILL CAN'T GET THAT IMAGE
OF LYNETTE OUT OF MY HEAD.

THE ONLY THING MISSING
IN THAT CRAMPED LITTLE OFFICE

WAS A HAMSTER WHEEL
AND WOOD CHIPS.

YEAH, I FIGURE
A COUPLE MORE DAYS OF THIS,

SHE'LL BE READY
TO PACK HER THINGS.

SHE DOES DESERVE THIS, RIGHT?

SHE LIED
WHEN SHE TOOK THE PROMOTION.

WHAT--WHAT IF HER DOCTOR
HAD PUT HER ON BED REST?

WHAT IF--WHAT IF I NEEDED HER
TO FLY SOMEWHERE?

SHE COULD'VE PUT
THE WHOLE COMPANY IN JEOPARDY.

YEAH, BUT THAT NEVER HAPPENED.

AND YOU SAID SHE WAS DOING
A GOOD JOB,

AND NOW YOU'RE DOING
ALL THESE MEAN THINGS TO HER.

ME? THIS WAS YOUR IDEA.

YOU WANTED TO PUT SNAKES
IN HER OFFICE.

RUBBER SNAKES.

WE ARE
COMPLETELY JUSTIFIED HERE.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

YOU'RE RIGHT, WHICH IS WHY
WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY

TO DO SOMETHING
WE NEVER DO, CARLOS--

FORGIVE.

SERIOUSLY?

TOM AND LYNETTE HAVE BEEN
OUR FRIENDS FOR 15 YEARS.

THEY GAVE US
SAUSAGE-OF-THE-MONTH

LAST CHRISTMAS.

THOSE WERE GOOD SAUSAGES.

I KNOW LYNETTE.

SHE WOULD NEVER SET OUT
TO INTENTIONALLY HURT US.

I GOTTA ADMIT,
I DO SORT OF MISS THOSE GUYS.

YOU SHOULD'VE SEEN HER
WHEN I WAS LEAVING HER OFFICE.

SHE HAD THIS LOOK IN HER EYES.
SHE WAS SO DEFEATED.

YOU SHOULD'VE SEEN
THIS LOOK IN HER EYES.

IT WAS LIKE, "SCREW YOU,
LYNETTE. I WIN!"

SO THAT'S WHEN
YOU CALLED THE LAWYER?
HELL, YES. THEY'RE NOT
GETTING AWAY WITH THIS.

THEY ARE NOT GONNA HARASS ME.
I AM GONNA SUE THEIR ASS!

AND CARLOS IS BEING
SERVED PAPERS TOMORROW.

WOW. YOU'RE REALLY GETTIN'
WORKED UP HERE.

WE ARE NOT HAVING ANGRY SEX.

JUST THOUGHT I'D ASK.

(sighs)

WHAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT
PUTTIN' AWAY THOSE CLOTHES?

I'M SERIOUS.

NAP TIME'S OVER!

DANNY?

DANNY? NO, NO, NO.

NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO!
NICK!

ANY WOMAN CAN BE THE VICTIM
OF A VIOLENT CRIME.

THAT IS WHY IT'S NECESSARY
TO LEARN HOW TO DEFEND YOURSELF.

A PARKING LOT, A PARK,
YOUR OWN DRIVEWAY.

AN ATTACK CAN HAPPEN ANYWHERE.
IT ONLY TAKES A FEW SECONDS.

SORRY I'M LATE.
I HAD THREE PARTIES TO PREP FOR.

HOW TIRING THAT MUST BE FOR YOU,
JUGGLING ALL THOSE AFFAIRS.

OKAY, EVERYONE, TEAM UP.
I WANT AN ATTACKER AND A VICTIM.

HEY, GABY,
YOU WANNA ATTACK ME?

OH, MRS. McCLUSKEY,
I DON'T WANNA HURT YOU.

OH, PLEASE. I'VE EATEN
BURGERS BIGGER THAN YOU.

ALL RIGHT, BRING IT ON.
ALL RIGHT, GRANNY.
PREPARE TO BREAK A HIP.

SO, UH...

LOOKS LIKE WE'RE PARTNERS.
DO YOU WANNA ATTACK ME?

I COULD BE PERSUADED.

NOW, ATTACKERS, I WANT YOU
TO APPROACH YOUR VICTIM.

(Gabrielle) OH!

(strained voice) HEY!

FREAKISHLY STRONG
OLD LADY HERE!

I CREDIT THE BRAN.

OH, THAT'S VERY IMPRESSIVE.
BUT THE REST OF YOU,

APPROACH YOUR VICTIM
FROM BEHIND.

PLACE HER IN A CHOKEHOLD.

NOW, VICTIMS, YOUR IMPULSE
WILL BE TO PULL AWAY. WRONG.

YOU'LL JUST CHOKE HARDER.

INSTEAD, I WANT YOU TO
PUSH BACK ON YOUR ATTACKER,

USING YOUR WEIGHT
TO PUSH HIM OFF BALANCE.

(strained voice)
SUSAN, A LITTLE TIGHT.
OH, I'M SORRY.

(grunts) OUCH.

THIS FEELS BAD, HUH?

BEING BETRAYED BY SOMEONE
YOU TRUSTED NOT TO HURT YOU?

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
(whispers) I KNOW
ABOUT YOU AND KARL.

(whispers) OH, NO.

(normal voice)
OH, YEAH. TRAITOR!

OH! STOP IT!

(grunts)

UH, YOU CAN'T TALK YOUR WAY
OUT OF AN ATTACK.

JAB WITH YOUR ELBOWS.
I AM TRYING TO! UHH!

(grunts)
AAH!

(gasps)

HOW COULD YOU?!
YOU KNOW HOW KARL TREATED ME.

SUSAN, I AM SORRY.
IF YOU WILL L-LET ME EXPLAIN...

OKAY, NOW,
ATTACKER AND VICTIM, SWITCH.

YOU HEARD HIM! SWITCH! (grunts)
I AM NOT LETTING YOU
GET BEHIND ME!

YOU'VE ALREADY
STABBED ME IN THE BACK!
(coughs)

MRS. DELFINO,
RELEASE YOUR VICTIM.

(gasps) OH!
SHE IS NOT THE VICTIM HERE!

(pants)

(whispers) WHAT ABOUT ORSON?
HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO HIM?!

(gasps)
YOU KNOW NOTHING
ABOUT MY MARRIAGE TO ORSON.

ORSON HAS PUT ME
THROUGH HELL THIS YEAR!
(strained voice)
BREE, TOO TIGHT!

SUSAN, I KNOW YOU'RE ANGRY...
(gasping)

BUT KARL MEANS MORE TO ME
THAN JUST A FLING,

AND I AM NOT GIVING HIM UP.

SO IF THAT MEANS
OUR FRIENDSHIP IS OVER,

THEN THAT'S YOUR DECISION,
NOT MINE.
UHH!

YOU'RE GOING?
WE JUST, UH, GOT STARTED.

I KNOW,

BUT I THINK I'VE DEFENDED MYSELF
ENOUGH FOR ONE DAY.

(sighs)

HEY.

HEY.

I JUST GOT A CALL
FROM THE LAWYER.

THEY'RE GONNA BE SERVING CARLOS
ANY MINUTE.

WOW. YOU'RE REALLY
GOING THROUGH WITH THIS, HUH?

YEAH. WE'RE NOT BAD PEOPLE,
ARE WE, TOM?

LOOK, WHAT CARLOS
IS DOING TO YOU

IS TOTALLY UNFAIR
AND ILLEGAL.

NO, WE'RE GOOD PEOPLE.
RIGHT, HE STARTED IT.
SCREW HIM.

(Gabrielle) YOO-HOO!

HEY!

WHAT'S ALL THIS?

UH, CANDY, FLOWERS,
BABY GIFT.

SORT OF MY WAY OF SAYING,

"I'M SORRY, AND HERE'S
SOME CRAP TO PROVE IT."

REALLY?
YEAH.

I DON'T WANT TO FIGHT ANYMORE,
AND NEITHER DOES CARLOS.

I WAS HOPING WE COULD TALK.

OH, GABY! I AM SO HAPPY!

AW! HERE, TAKE IT.
IT'S GETTIN' HEAVY.

AW!
(chuckles)

I MISSED YOU!

AW!
UM, LYNETTE?

HONEY, WE'RE HAVING A MOMENT
HERE. PLEASE DON'T SPOIL IT.

(exhales deeply) I'M NOT
WHAT'S GONNA SPOIL IT.

OH. COULD YOU HOLD ON
A SECOND?

I'M JUST--I'M GONNA MAKE
A QUICK PHONE CALL.

YOU KNOW WHAT, GUYS?
I DON'T CARE WHAT HAPPENS.

LET'S NOT LET ANYTHING INTERFERE
WITH OUR FRIENDSHIP EVER AGAIN.

REMEMBER YOU SAID THAT.

(whispers) ANSWER THE PHONE.
ANSWER THE PHONE.
(chuckles)

(speaks inaudibly)

WHAT?!

(cell phone rings)

OH! IT'S CARLOS.
I WONDER WHAT HE WANTS.

GABY, YOU KNOW WHAT YOU SAID
ABOUT OUR FRIENDSHIP BEFORE?

(stammers) LET'S JUST
MAKE A PACT THAT WE SHOULD--

HEY, BABE, WHAT'S UP?

I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU
FOR THIS.

GABY, PLEASE.
WHAT ABOUT OUR PACT?

WE NEVER MADE A PACT!
HERE, M.J., CATCH.

YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND.
I WAS JUST PROTECTING MYSELF.

HELLO, LADIES. WHAT'S NEW?

LYNETTE'S SUING CARLOS. HERE.

ONCE YOU APOLOGIZED,
I TRIED TO CALL THE GUY OFF.

LYNETTE,
YOU WANTED TO SUE US!

THAT PROVES THAT
YOU ARE NOT MY FRIEND!

HEY, KAREN! HERE'S SOME CANDY.
TRYING TO CUT DOWN.

REALLY?
AT YOUR AGE, WHY BOTHER?

PLEASE,
I NEED TO TALK TO YOU.

NO, YOU NEED
TO TALK TO MY LAWYER.

(door opens and closes)

(spritzes)

HEY, LYNETTE.
GOT A PROJECT FOR YOU.

OKAY. WHO'S THIS?

STEVE MATTHEWS FROM LEGAL.

YOU KNOW, SINCE WE ALL SEEM
TO BE LAWYERING UP AROUND HERE.

LOOK, I WAS JUST TRYING
TO PROTECT MYSELF.

NO, IT'S JUST BUSINESS.

THIS IS THE DEPARTMENT'S
PURCHASES AND EXPENSES

FROM THE LAST FISCAL YEAR.

(heavy thud)

I'M GONNA NEED
ALL OF THAT ITEMIZED...
DONE.

BY TOMORROW MORNING,
9:00 A.M.

(laughs)

I... HATE IT WHEN
I'M THE ONLY ONE LAUGHING.

THIS, UH, THIS IS AT LEAST
TWO DAYS' WORK.

NOT IF YOU WORK TONIGHT.

(scoffs) PENNY'S
CHRISTMAS PAGEANT IS TONIGHT.

YOU KNOW THAT.
YOU GO EVERY YEAR.

LYNETTE, ARE YOU TELLING ME
THAT YOU'RE UNABLE TO...

WHAT WAS IT AGAIN?
UNABLE TO PERFORM
THE ASSIGNED TASK

IN A TIMELY MANNER.
YEAH, THAT'S IT.

NO.

TELL YOUR UNDERTAKER FRIEND

THAT I WILL
GET THE ASSIGNMENT DONE...

IN A TIMELY MANNER.

GREAT.
AND WILL YOU TELL PENNY

GABY AND I ARE GONNA HAVE
TO MISS HER PAGEANT THIS YEAR?

AND WE ARE SO SORRY.

THANK YOU BOTH FOR COMING.

BEFORE WE GET STARTED,
CAN I GET YOU ANYTHING?

GIVEN WHAT YOU'RE ABOUT
TO DO TO US,

I'LL TAKE A CIGARETTE
AND A BLINDFOLD.
NO, NO. NO, NO.

I HAVE DECIDED TO PUT ASIDE
MY RAGE AND SENSE OF BETRAYAL.

I'M HERE TO HELP YOU.

REALLY?
NOT YOU.

IF YOU ARE
ACTUALLY CONSIDERING

HAVING A SERIOUS RELATIONSHIP
WITH THIS MAN,

THEN I WANNA MAKE SURE
THAT YOU HAVE ALL THE FACTS.

WHAT KIND OF FACTS?

KARL FACTS.

KARL, TELL BREE WHAT YOU GOT ME
FOR MY 30th BIRTHDAY.

WHO CAN REMEMBER?
IT WAS SO LONG AGO.

NOTHING! HE GOT ME NOTHING
BECAUSE HE FORGOT MY BIRTHDAY.

AND IT WASN'T THAT LONG AGO.
I DON'T SEE THE POINT OF--

NOW TELL HER WHERE YOU SPENT
OUR TENTH ANNIVERSARY.

(mutters)

I'M SORRY. WHAT WAS THAT?
A STRIP CLUB.

OH, KARL!

THAT'S NOTHING.

NOW TELL HER WHAT YOU WANTED
FOR YOUR 35th BIRTHDAY.

AW, COME ON.

HE WANTED ME TO ASK A FRIEND
TO JOIN US IN THE BEDROOM.

YOU KEPT SAYING
I WAS HARD TO SHOP FOR.

THERE HE IS, BREE.

THAT IS THE MAN
YOU SAY YOU WANNA BE WITH.

SUSAN, I WENT INTO THIS
WITH MY EYES WIDE OPEN.

I KNOW WHO KARL WAS
AND WHO HE SOMETIMES STILL IS.

BUT I BELIEVE HIM WHEN
HE SAYS HE WANTS TO CHANGE.

AND ISN'T THAT
WHAT YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO DO

WHEN YOU LOVE SOMEONE?

DID YOU SAY... "LOVE"?

I THINK I DID.

BREE, I HAVE TO ASK YOU
ONE QUESTION.

ARE YOU DRINKING AGAIN?

NO!

OKAY, OKAY,
I WAS JUST CHECKING.

WELL...

IF THAT'S REALLY
THE WAY YOU FEEL,

THEN YOU SHOULD BE
WITH HIM.

AND YOU HAVE...
MY BLESSING.

REALLY? YOU CAN FORGIVE ME
JUST LIKE THAT?

YOU KNOW, I WAS DOING
A LOT OF THINKING

SINCE, YOU KNOW, YESTERDAY,

AND I REALIZED THAT, UH...

IT'S HARD TO FIND... LOVE.

AND WHEN YOU DO,
YOU SHOULD GRAB IT.

AND WHO CARES
WHAT ANYBODY THINKS?

AND I REALLY DO WANT YOU TO BE
AS HAPPY AS I AM WITH MIKE.

OH.

THANK YOU, SUSAN.

(chuckles)

DON'T WORRY, SUSIE Q.

I'M GOING TO DO RIGHT
BY HER.

YOU REALLY THINK
YOU CAN CHANGE?

WELL, IT'S EASY

WHEN YOU'VE FOUND A WOMAN
WORTH CHANGING FOR.

OH, I-I-I DIDN'T MEAN...

OH! AH! OW! OW!
OW! OW! OW! OW!

LEARNED THAT
IN SELF-DEFENSE CLASS.

BYE, MOM.
BYE, MOM.

BYE-BYE!
HEY, WE'RE TAKING OFF.

OKAY.
WISH YOUR LITTLE ANGEL LUCK.

OH, GOOD LUCK, SWEETIE.

NOW REMEMBER, YOUR DAD'S GONNA
VIDEOTAPE YOUR PAGEANT,

AND WE'RE ALL GONNA
WATCH IT TOMORROW.

SWEETIE, I'M SORRY.
YOU KNOW I'D BE THERE, BUT--

YOU HAVE TO WORK.
IT'S OKAY.

HEY, GUYS! WAIT UP!

THE DOCTOR'S PUTTING HIM
UNDER OBSERVATION FOR 72 HOURS.

IT'S STANDARD PROCEDURE FOR...

A SUICIDE ATTEMPT.

IT'S OKAY, MONA.

THANKS FOR EVERYTHING.

(exhales deeply)

MY BABY...

WHAT WERE YOU THINKIN', HUH?

I'M SORRY I CALLED THE FEDS.

I WAS TRYING TO
MAKE YOUR LIFE EASIER

AFTER ALL THE THINGS I'D DONE
TO MAKE IT HARDER.

OH, LOOK WHAT I'VE DONE
TO THIS KID.

(scoffs)

NOVEMBER 10th, 1991.

IT RAINED ALL DAY. REMEMBER?

MM-HMM.

YOU WENT TO THE DINER

BEFORE WE WENT
TO MEET UP WITH THE OTHERS.

I HAD PUMPKIN PANCAKES.

YOU DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING.

I HAD COFFEE.
HMM.

I FORGET MY UMBRELLA
IN THE BOOTH.

AND THEN EIGHT HOURS LATER,
NEITHER OF US EXISTED ANYMORE.

I HAD TO RUN,
BUT YOU DIDN'T.

YOU GAVE UP A HELL OF A LOT
JUST SO I WOULDN'T BE ALONE.

I'D DO IT AGAIN.

I'D DO ANYTHING
FOR YOU GUYS.

I HOPE YOU KNOW THAT.

I DO.

(knock on door)

GOOD MORNING, LYNETTE.
IT'S 9:00.

GOT MY REPORTS?

ALMOST.

SO ARE YOU TELLING ME
YOU'RE NOT DONE?

I JUST NEED ONE MORE HOUR.

OH, LYNETTE. (sighs)
IF ONLY I NEEDED THEM BY 10:00.

UNFORTUNATELY, I TOLD YOU
THAT I NEEDED THEM BY 9:00.

WAS I NOT CLEAR?
YOU WERE CRYSTAL CLEAR.

IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE

TO GET ALL THIS WORK DONE
IN A NIGHT, CARLOS.

YOU KNEW THAT
WHEN YOU GAVE IT TO ME.

WELL, IT WOULDN'T HAVE
BEEN IMPOSSIBLE

IF YOU'D SKIPPED
YOUR DAUGHTER'S PAGEANT.

I KNOW YOU WENT.

ANYWAY, THIS IS
VERY PAINFUL FOR ME,

BUT I HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE

BUT TO TERMINATE
YOUR EMPLOYMENT.

YOU'RE REALLY
GOING TO DO THIS?

I BELIEVE I'M WITHIN
MY LEGAL RIGHTS.

YOU NEED TO CLEAR OUT
YOUR PERSONAL BELONGINGS

WITHIN THE HOUR, MRS. SCAVO.

(exhales deeply)

(pen clatters)

(voice breaks)
I WAS UP ALL NIGHT ON THIS.

THAT'S A SHAME.

SO MR. MATTHEWS HAS
SOME PAPERWORK FOR YOU TO SIGN.

YOU'RE GONNA REGRET THIS.
I'M NOT GONNA GO QUIETLY.

I DON'T CARE HOW YOU GO.

I JUST WANT YOU GONE.

OH, GOOD. YOU'RE UP.
I'M MONA CLARKE.

I LIVE DOWN THE STREET
FROM YOU AND YOUR FOLKS.

I TOLD THEM I WOULD
TAKE REAL GOOD CARE OF YOU.

WOULD YOU LIKE
SOME JUICE, DANNY?
TYLER.

WHAT?

(exhales deeply)
IT'S NOT DANNY.

MY NAME'S TYLER.

BYE, GIRLS.
THANKS FOR COMING.

(children shouting in distance)

MIKE,
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

I'M HERE TO PICK UP M.J.
BUT SHE SAID
YOU COULDN'T MAKE IT.

SHE WAS
PICKING HIM UP FOR YOU.
WHO? SUSAN?

NO, YOUR NEIGHBOR KATHERINE.

WHAT?!

DID I DO SOMETHING WRONG?
(car door closes,
engine starts)

M.J.!

HI, DADDY.

I DROVE BY EILEEN'S,

AND I-I SAW MY LITTLE BUDDY
STANDING OUT THERE.

HE LOOKED SO FORLORN.

M.J., GO HOME.

I FIGURED YOU WERE
LATE AT SOME JOB,

SO I THOUGHT
I'D DO YOU A FAVOR.
NOW.

(door opens and closes)

WHAT DID I TELL YOU?

I NEEDED
TO TALK TO HIM, MIKE.

HE DESERVES
TO KNOW THE TRUTH.

(voice breaks)
HIS MOTHER LIES TO HIM.

HE NEEDS TO KNOW THAT
WHAT YOU AND I HAD WAS REAL.

YOU AND I HAD NOTHING.

HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT?

IT'S TRUE.

THE WHOLE TIME
I WAS WITH YOU,

ALL I THOUGHT ABOUT
WAS SUSAN.

EVERY TIME I HELD YOU,

EVERY TIME I KISSED YOU,

ALL I WAS THINKING WAS,

GOD, I WISH YOU WERE SUSAN.

(knife clatters)

IF YOU MEAN IT,

THEN PLEASE KILL ME.

(whispers)
IT WOULD BE LESS PAINFUL.

I DON'T CARE ENOUGH ABOUT YOU
TO KILL YOU.

(knife clatters)

(door opens and closes)

THE WORLD IS A DANGEROUS PLACE,

AND WE MUST LEARN
TO DEFEND OURSELVES

FROM THOSE
WHO WANT TO HURT US...

THAT STRANGER WITHOUT A NAME...

AN EMPLOYER WHO HOLDS
A GRUDGE...

THE HUSBAND WHO WON'T LET GO.

YES, WE ALL TRY
TO DEFEND OURSELVES

SO WE WON'T GET HURT.

(gasping)

(shaky voice) YES, I NEED
AN AMBULANCE RIGHT AWAY.

4356 WISTERIA LANE.

PLEASE HURRY.
I'M LOSING A LOT OF BLOOD.

(telephone clatters)

UNTIL THE MOMENT WE REALIZE
OUR PAIN...

(stabbing sound)
(gasps)

CAN HURT SOMEONE ELSE.

(thud)
