Vols...I think mike is a thief/burgular straight out and maybe have been caught before....so that is why he is in the system...but it would be interesting to find out who the guy is that he was talking to...I think they are looking for info to blackmail people....because these people would raher pay than have their dirty laundry aired....

I think Mike's fingerprints are in the system because he's in law enforcement (local or federal?). He's likely investigating the murder of the person that was dug up from under the swimming pool and dumped in the river.

LAst night's episode was just as intriguing as all the others.....a few things were cleared up ...well not really....We now know without a doubt that Mike is a burgular....and he was wetting his pants lastnight.....anyway, it worked out for him in the end and I still love him.....

Now unto the son...Zach.. that is....My theory and you must realize by now I like thoeries....

Nice suburban couple with kids (2) living somewhere....find out that one kid(zach) has a anger or violience problem....Kid(zach) then somehow kills his sibling....so not wanting people to find out the pack up body and all, change name and move to wisteria lane as the nice couple and child(zach) and they build a pool at this new home and bury the box with other kid under the pool...end of story..live happily ever after.......with just one minor problem...someone knows about their little or not so little problem....sends a note to the wife and she kills herself...now husband has to now not only deal with a problem child but also a distraught child...I think a that's a terrible combination.....hence the reason pops got a bloody nose....and kid get shipped off to god he knows where....

so Mike is looking to get the dirt on someone or many someones on wisteria lane...but he thinks they are all nice...because on the surface they are....but will he break into paul and zach's house while they are out and find the dirt he is looking for...well we willl just have to wait and see...

what are your theories???

Nice theories sisyphus, however, if a sibling was done in by Zach and his parents chose to protect him, no mother would leave him behind as did Mary Alice. If she had covered for him up to now, just an annoymous threat would not be enough (in my theory, anyway) to make her kill herself and leave his behind.

Mike seems to me to be a good or bad choice. Either a good guy (ex-law enforcement with prints on record) or a criminal. Either way, the guy in the park seems to be his employer/boss since he didn't argue with his orders that he stay in Wisteria Lane until/unless his cover was actually blown. He seems to be looking for proof someone is not whom they seem - which looks to be everyone except Susan some episodes.

The stress of guilt and being found out could make protecting her son seem less important...plus he has his father....

If you think someone is not who they appear to be....then you would have an idea who that person is....and would not randomly break into peoples house to find dirt on them....this woman, whose house he broke into was not even a peripheral character but one just brought in for the purpose of revealing that mike is the burgular

plus he has his father....
If you want to call what we are seeing being a father. Bree had it right when she observed last night that none of them really know if all that fighting was going on when Mary Alice was alive, and it's just more noticable now.

you would have an idea who that person is....
Not if he is only looking for someone who is living on Wisteria. He may know only that the person is living there and pretending to fit in. It could be anyone, male or female, and it would make sense that he might try breakins to see if there is something in a house that would indicate the owner's true nature.

Of course, time will likely show we are both so completely off base with all our theories. AND that is what is making this show good - I don't know when they are just yelling "Look - a distraction!" or if they are giving me a real clue.

"We now know without a doubt that Mike is a burgular..."

I don't think we know for sure that Mike is a burglar, he didn't take anything did he? I think you are right though that he is looking for dirt on someone. I read somewhere that he is connected to MA's death.(In Touch or Us Weekly)

To go along with this....

Maybe Mike is trying to find out why MA shot herself. He did get into town right after she died.

You may be right, but for some reason I don't think he is on the right side of the law....why then was he so antsy and ready to get out of wisteria lane....I think it is being found out by the cops rather than being found out by the peeps on wistera lane

I agree with you about him not being on the "right" side of the law. It's only a guess, but he did seem scared of getting caught by the cops.

Maybe Mike wrote the letter? Maybe Mike used to live near/close to Mary Alice and the family years ago and he knew there were suppose to be two kids! Just a thought!
