"05/07 Episode"
Posted by KScott on 05-08-06 at 10:21 AM
That Andrew he is a little booger ain't he? I loved how Bree just left him alongside the road, good for her!!!! She needs to look out for Danielle now, she is a beeyotch!

I am not sure how this whole Gabby line is going. Do you think Carlos now has the hots for the maid because she is a virgin?

So Tom is buying flowers and spending time in Atlantic City with someone else. Do you think it is anyone we alreay know or will they be bringing someone new in?

Susan, poor pathetic Susan. I loved the mailman scene. All I can say is I am glad Julie was not in the home when Edie lit it up.

And those Applewhites, weird!!!!!!!!

Bree dropping off Andrew on the side of the road was so very well acted. You could sense how painful it must have been as a mother to have to do that. The look on Andrew's face was priceless!!!!
I didn't get to see the whole episode and I will have to watch it tonight so I can comment on it.
I'm still a self-professed Desperate Housewives addict. My favorite show on the air!

Good show! Danielle's attempt at seduction was pitiful. What was with that dress? It looked like something she has had since she was 12 with all the ruffles. But when Bree dropped Andrew off - wow. What a great scene. There was something I couldn't quite get hold of in her looks, too. A softening, sorta. She just didn't look so tightly controlled and polished, the way she normally does. It so fit with what she was doing.

I still wonder from last year if Tom has a whole 'nother family hidden away? He said Lynette would leave him if she knew what he had done.

Edie, Edie, Edie. On one hand, it is easy to see why she did it. The letter was just another Susan attempt to excuse herself, just like when she admitted to Edie that she was the one who had set her house on fire and wanted forgiveness then too.

I am really disliking the Applewhite story. The casual acceptance of the mom that the solution will be, not to seek help, but to kill her son. And the locking up of the other one because he set his brother up? While all actions have consequences, mom is definately a couple sandwiches short of a picnic.

That was the first thing that struck me, Sez. Her hair was not perfectly flipped and glossy like usual. It was kind of limp and lackluster. I figured she was just really depressed about Peter, but as the scene unfolded it became clear that she was also very upset about what she was going to have to do to Andrew. The little shite. I hate his character. Grrrr.

Now that was the DH that I grew to love. What a fabulous episode. Lots of twists and turns that I never saw coming.

Marcia Cross deserves the Emmy award this year, IMO. She was great in the scene when George killed himself, and last night, when she left Andrew on the side of the road was terrrific as well. I could really feel her pain, not only for what he had done to her, but what she had to do to him for her own sanity.
I hated also that she lost another man. I really liked Peter until last night's episode. Could not believe that he slept with Andrew, in her bed. EWWWW!

Can't wait to see what happens with the Tom and Lynnette story line. It almost seems to easy that he's having an affair, I really thinking there is something more to it.

Are they setting us up for a Susan/Mike reunion? I'm guessing she and Julie move in with Mike for a while after the house burned. I thought the same thing about Julie being in the house. I knew Edie was vindictive, and had every reason to be mad, but never thought it would go that far. On a lighter note with Susan, the scene with the mailman in her bed was absolutely hilarious, but I really didn't need to see that guy in his boxers.

I'm also now wondering if it really was Caleb who killed the girl. Matthew is manipulative, and I just wonder if Matthew is responsible for the girl's death, and somehow managed to turn it to make Caleb look guilty. (I was surprised when Betty locked him in the basement, and appeared to drive off with Caleb.)

As for Carlos and Gabrielle, the whole surrogate mother thing was interesting. The maid is just so naive, I knew she wasn't going to understand what they wanted her to do (loved Gabrielle's analogy of making the dumplings to conceiving the baby, tooo funny). Carlos just seemed a little too turned on when he found out that the maid was a virgin. I hope they don't have anything happen with Carlos and the maid.

Can't wait for the next two episodes. I don't know what I'm going to do over the summer with no new episodes for about 4 months.

Call it wishful thinking but honestly, I think it may have been a set up. Granted...I only caught the scene where peter is walking out of the restroom and Andrew is smugly laying in the bed. Maybe I missed something else that affirmed that is indeed what happened. I really don't know...like I said, I have to go back and watch the entire episode...(I taped it).

I hope your right, but I certainly got the impression that Peter and Andrew did have sex.

I knew Andrew was going to try something. When he was talking to Peter about his sex addiction, he looked like he had a plan brewing in his head, as soon as Peter mentioned sleeping with "a lot of people" not "women". So Andrew knew Peter's weaknesses, and seemed to expoloit them to get back at his mother.

Yep. My understanding was that they did sleep together. He was trying to get Danielle to sleep with him and she refused and told him to do his own dirty work. Then he called Peter out on sleeping with men and then that scene. I don't think it was a setup.

The look on Peter's face said it all. They slept together.

Wonder what Bree will do with the bed.

It's Arkie Love

i found that whole scenario extremely disturbing. we all know Andrew is a little "off" (accidently killing Mrs. Solis, showing no remorse, and such), but trying to get his sister to sleep with their mother's boyfriend and then doing it himself after she refused is just too much. and they are both minors--that is just awful! poor Bre, at least Danielle isn't a complete sociopath.

that said, the look on Andrew's face when Bre dropped him off was really sad. he called her mommy, i would have lost it then. i hope they continue to develop this storyline.

I thought this was the most intriguing episode of the entire season. What I found interesting is when faced with life-changing revelations or decisions, neither Bree nor Lynette nor the black neighbor (sorry, can't remember her character's name) threw screaming fits. They all behaved so quietly, with such despair and resignation. Think about it: poor Bree has been betrayed by every man in her life. And despite her rigidity, I think she's a decent woman.

Susan and Gabrielle are simpering idiots; the two most shallow empty-headed women on the block.
