00:00Previously on Desperate Housewives...
00:04The police dug up your father today.
00:06They think that somebody was poisoning him.
00:08Apparently I'm a suspect.
00:09Bree felt threatened by the past.
00:11Get the damn lawyer.
00:12Are you hitting on me?
00:14Gabrielle was threatened by seduction.
00:16Do you mean Julie?
00:17If I come back with you, then I can make it up to her.
00:19I think you should try to find your father first.
00:21Let me help.
00:21And while some threats...
00:24Were kept under control...
00:30Let's get this over with.
00:31Some were left free to return.
00:38Since her first day on the job,
00:40it had been clear to Lynette Scavo
00:42that her new boss Nina was unusually...
00:47tense.
00:48To help relieve her tension,
00:50Lynette tried giving her boss thoughtful gifts.
00:54A soothing wave machine...
00:56Aromatherapy candles...
01:00Even meditative chi-balls.
01:07But nothing seemed to ease Nina's tension.
01:11Distilled the old-fashioned way.
01:14You know, it actually hurts my teeth
01:17to say that out loud.
01:19You folks are going to toddle back to your little holes
01:22and you are going to come up with a decent slogan
01:24or I will can all your asses
01:26the old-fashioned way.
01:31Until one day,
01:33when it occurred to Lynette,
01:35there was one form of relaxation
01:37she had yet to try.
01:39It's a gimlet.
01:42You'll love it.
01:43What exactly is your plan here?
01:45To get me all liquored up
01:46so I buy the revised pitch?
01:48Don't be ridiculous.
01:50Could we get a trough of these, please?
01:53I can't remember the last time I was in a bar.
01:57Must have been the last time I had a boyfriend,
01:59which was...
02:01Oh God, I'm a nun.
02:03So why don't you go out and get in the game?
02:06Believe it or not,
02:08when it comes to meeting men,
02:09I am...
02:11shy.
02:13Well, I'm not.
02:15So, uh...
02:17What about that guy over there?
02:20He's been checking you out since we walked in.
02:23That's cute.
02:25So go over there.
02:27No.
02:28Oh, for God's sake.
02:30Where are you going?
02:31Lynette, sit.
02:33Hey, Stretch.
02:38See my friend over there?
02:40She thinks you're cute.
02:44Why don't you buy her a drink?
02:50Hey, everybody.
02:52Hi.
02:53Oh, it's a beautiful morning, isn't it?
02:56Thank you, sweetie.
02:57Oh, hey, Lynette.
02:59I read the new Vodka proposal.
03:00Oh, you guys hit it out of the park.
03:04Wow.
03:04I love that color.
03:06Thanks.
03:07Hey, Nina.
03:08Yeah.
03:09And although it had come about in an unexpected manner...
03:13Aren't those the same clothes you were wearing last night in the bar?
03:16Yep.
03:17Nina's tension had finally been released.
03:20The old-fashioned way.
03:23The old-fashioned way.
03:23Something is been soldado.
03:24Yes.
03:25Absolutely.
03:28The old-fashioned way.
03:31Yes.
03:32Oh, we know.
03:33Oh, my God.
03:38I'm my gra拇aman.
03:40Thanks.
03:40See you next time.
03:41Hey.
03:41Hey.
03:43Hey.
03:43Hey.
03:43Hey.
03:44Hey.
03:45Hey.
03:45Hey.
03:46Hey.
03:47Hey.
03:47Hey.
03:47Hey.
03:48Hey.
03:49Hey.
03:49Absolutely.
03:50Hey.
03:51Hey.
03:51Hey.
03:51Hey.
03:52Hey.
03:52Everyone in this world needs someone they can depend upon,
04:12be it a faithful companion, trusted confidant, or loyal friend.
04:20For Susan Meyer, that dependable someone was her book agent, Lonnie Moon.
04:30It was Lonnie who helped Susan promote her first children's book.
04:35It was Lonnie who rushed Susan to the hospital the night Julie was born.
04:40It was Lonnie who took Susan's mind off her painful divorce with a fun vacation.
04:47Yes, Lonnie was Susan's rock.
04:52Sadly for Susan, her rock was about to crumble.
04:55For those of you just joining us, we have a new development in the Melanie foster case.
05:01Lonnie, what are you doing here?
05:03It's past noon, which means it's now socially acceptable to begin drinking.
05:08I can't believe I let you talk me into this. I am so behind in my work, but I'm glad I came. This is fun.
05:15I've got to be honest. I had an ulterior motive.
05:18Oh?
05:19I've decided to start my own agency.
05:21You're leaving Murren Hunt? You helped build that place.
05:25I know, but I just feel it's time. And now the question is, will you come with me?
05:32Well, of course.
05:35Okay. To the future.
05:39I'll just call the agency and I'll let them know I'm going with you.
05:43Oh, I don't think that's necessary.
05:45Really?
05:46Yeah, I think it might be rude not to.
05:49Lonnie, what's going on?
05:55Okay. There's been some bad blood between me and the partners.
06:02Why?
06:03I got into this thing where I had to move a little client money around temporarily to cover some expenses.
06:09You had to move money? What does that mean?
06:12I took a little from here and I moved it there. It was no big deal.
06:18Really? Because it sort of sounds like embezzlement.
06:21Why do people keep using that word?
06:24Who else is using that word?
06:26Nobody.
06:28The partners and their forensic accountant.
06:31Oh, my God.
06:33Lonnie, did you move some of my money?
06:36Absolutely not! I swear!
06:38Susan, don't look at me that way.
06:41I know what I did was wrong.
06:43And I feel like a complete idiot for doing it.
06:45But please, please don't hate me.
06:49Well, I don't hate you. I couldn't hate you. You're my Lonnie.
06:53So...
06:55Will you still come with me?
07:00You know what?
07:05This is one of those times when you find out who your real friends are. So...
07:11Yeah.
07:12Oh, thank you. Thank you. You are one special lady, Susan Meyer.
07:22Is that the baby's head?
07:23No, that's his foot.
07:27That looks like a head to me.
07:29Well, that settles it. When this baby's born, I'll be in charge of putting on the socks.
07:34You're glowing today, you know that?
07:37Pregnancy agrees with you.
07:39Yeah? Well, if you don't mind the hemorrhoids and the nausea, it's quite the party.
07:44I wonder where David is.
07:46He should have been here by now.
07:48So this new lawyer's good?
07:49He's quite the shark. You're gonna love him.
07:51He hasn't lost a case in six years.
07:54He argued in front of the state supreme court,
07:56and he made our conjugal visit happen pretty damn fast.
08:00Oh, hey, I'm a fan already.
08:02Sorry I'm late.
08:03Oh, David.
08:05Good to see you, Gabby.
08:07Carlos, I'm David.
08:09I don't think so.
08:26What the hell are you doing?
08:29That guy's not gonna be my lawyer.
08:31Find a new one.
08:36You haven't filed a single charge.
08:38Either determine a homicide or release the body.
08:40We've got a court order which says until we're done with it, the corpse is ours.
08:44He is not a corpse.
08:45He is a man named Rex Vandekamp.
08:48He was a loving husband, a devoted father, and a successful doctor.
08:52So successful, in fact, that he left me enough money to sue the city, this precinct, and you two gentlemen personally just for the fun of it.
09:00Mrs. Vandekamp, we don't respond well to threats, so if I were you...
09:04Release the body.
09:07What?
09:08The evidence we have is minimal at best.
09:10Mrs. Vandekamp was gracious enough to come down here and take that lie detector test.
09:14I think it's the least we can do for her.
09:18So, uh, what will happen now?
09:21Obviously, we'll put Mr. Vandekamp back just like we found him.
09:25Yes, and I'm sure you will bury him with all the dignity of a dead hamster.
09:29You know, I want Rex released to me and I will make all the arrangements.
09:33Fine.
09:35And of course, you'll be paying all the costs.
09:38Of course.
09:39Detective Barton, you are clearly a gentleman.
09:49People have gathered at Atboro High School when Melanie attended the...
09:55No, it's fine.
09:56I'll pick him up on my way home.
09:58Okay.
09:59So, what do you want?
10:01Oh, Parker hates pepperoni.
10:03Um, how about sausage?
10:04Yeah.
10:05And a small cheese.
10:06Okay.
10:07Perfect.
10:08Love ya.
10:09Hey, you.
10:10Hey.
10:11You want to hit O'Donnell's?
10:12I owe you a beer.
10:14Actually, I owe you so much more than that.
10:17You're welcome, but I really need to get home.
10:20Oh, come on.
10:21I had such a good time last night.
10:23Um, why don't you ask Trudy?
10:25She loves going out.
10:26Trudy?
10:27Are you kidding?
10:28I don't need the competition.
10:29Have you seen Trudy without her jacket?
10:30She's hot.
10:31Oh, is she now?
10:33I didn't mean that you're not hot.
10:36I just, you're married.
10:38Ah.
10:39You know, you're off the market.
10:40I don't have to worry about fighting you for guys.
10:42Come on, Lynette.
10:44Just one quick little drink.
10:46I was actually starting to think that you and I were becoming pals.
10:50Pals?
10:51Cause sometimes it's hard to tell.
10:53You know, I wasn't feeling the love today when you mocked my campaign in front of the clients.
10:59That was just putting on a show for work.
11:02In the future, always assume that I am winking.
11:06Inside.
11:08Come on.
11:09I hate to go to a bar alone.
11:11I feel like such a loser.
11:13Okay.
11:15One drink.
11:16Yeah.
11:17One or two.
11:18No.
11:19No.
11:20Thank you so much for bringing my mail over.
11:32You know, I have some of yours in the kitchen.
11:33Well, that's the fourth time.
11:34What's up with this postman?
11:35Oh, I know.
11:36He used to be great.
11:37Then he had this stroke.
11:38And now we're lucky if he doesn't drool on the coupons.
11:40But feel free to snoop around.
11:41I'll be right back.
11:42Bye.
11:43Bye.
11:44Bye.
11:45Bye.
11:46Bye.
11:47Bye.
11:48Bye.
11:49Bye.
11:50Bye.
11:51Bye.
11:52Bye.
11:53Bye.
11:54Bye.
11:55Bye.
11:56Bye.
11:57Bye.
11:58Bye.
11:59Bye.
12:00Bye.
12:01Bye.
12:02Bye.
12:03Bye.
12:18Now, one of those of you just joining us,
12:21families in Chicago breathed this sigh of relief today as an arrest was finally made in the brutal attack on local high school student, Melanie Foster.
12:29But word of the suspect's capture becomes a small comfort to the Foster family.
12:34They lost their 17-year-old daughter almost four months ago.
12:37The victim's body was covered in a local park less than a mile from Hattonboro High.
12:49Did you see the news? They arrested somebody.
12:51Yeah. Looks like we're in the clear.
12:59Well, I have some good news.
13:03The police have finally released Rex's body.
13:06About time.
13:07You must be so relieved.
13:08You know, mostly I'm just annoyed that the whole thing happened in the first place.
13:12I mean, how in the world could anybody accuse me of murder?
13:16Well, you are wound pretty tight.
13:21What? The supermom is always the first to snap.
13:24They've done studies.
13:26Anyway, I was hoping that you were all free Friday morning because that's when I'm going to be hosting the reburial.
13:33The what?
13:35Look, I know it's an imposition, but Danielle is away on a class trip and Andrew is back at Camp Hennessy for a little refresher course.
13:42Well, it's just going to be a very brief and dignified ceremony and I was hoping that you could say a few words and I'm going to read a poem.
13:51We would love to come.
13:54Absolutely.
13:59I'm busy. Sorry.
14:01Edie, she's going to read a poem.
14:05Ow!
14:06Fine, yes. Yes, we'd all love to come.
14:09Well, thank you. You don't know how much this means to me.
14:16I realized looking back that I was still in shock during Rex's first funeral.
14:23I don't think it had quite hit me at what had happened.
14:26So that's why this small ceremony means so much to me because I realize now that this is the last chance I'm going to have to say goodbye.
14:39Unless, of course, they dig him up again.
14:49Sure, there was times when Lisa was rude and obnoxious.
14:55But I know now that there was no excuse to always be beating on her.
14:59Oh, baby, I'm just so sorry.
15:08Good job, you two.
15:09This is an example of how to use incarceration to your benefit.
15:13It's a chance for people to take a step back and observe the obstacles they face in their marriage.
15:19Can I go now?
15:20Because I have a lot to say about the obstacles I'm facing in my marriage.
15:24We don't got any obstacles.
15:25Yes, we do, Lamar. We got big ones.
15:27Okay, hold on, you two. I think that it's Carlos and Gabrielle's turn.
15:33Thanks, but we're good.
15:38This is your third group session, but you have yet to share anything.
15:42Come on, talk to us.
15:45How's your marriage?
15:47Shaky at best.
15:49And why is that?
15:50I don't know.
15:51I hired a brilliant lawyer to get my husband out of this hellhole, and he fired him for no reason at all.
15:55Carlos?
15:58I just didn't like him.
15:59Why not? He's experienced, he's intelligent, he's successful.
16:02Exactly. I'd prefer an attorney you didn't find so damn appealing.
16:06Oh, my God. You fired him because you're jealous?
16:08Don't I have the right to? You know she cheated on me.
16:11Oh, Bob, you beat your wife. You are so not allowed to gasp.
16:14Don't you talk that way to him.
16:16One reward out of you, Lisa, and I will backhand you myself.
16:18Okay, calm down.
16:19Thousands of fatball attorneys out there in the world, and she's got to get the one that looks like an underwear model.
16:24I'm not discussing this anymore. You can rot in here for all I care.
16:27So, um, Mona, what do you feel are the biggest problems in your marriage?
16:37By the way, he was wearing a suit. How do you know he had a good body?
16:40Do you know?
16:41No.
16:42I bet he's hot.
16:47Do I need to say what our biggest problem is, or can everybody figure it out for themselves?
16:57Why are you reading that contract?
16:59I told you. Lonnie wants me to sign with his new agency.
17:03But you didn't say you were seriously thinking about going with him.
17:06I know. I know.
17:08Just Lonnie's family. You know, he's always been there for me.
17:13He paid my rent when I was waiting for my first royalty check.
17:16He called me every day when Carl left. I mean, I just owe him so much.
17:20Susan, he committed a felony.
17:23Okay, who in this room has not committed a felony? Raise your hand.
17:26Uh-uh-uh, not so fast.
17:28Your agent represents you. You've got to be able to trust him.
17:31How's that going to be possible now?
17:34Well, it's possible because I have faith in people.
17:38I mean, Lonnie knows you messed up, and he's sorry he's making restitution.
17:42What, you don't believe people deserve second chances?
17:45Not when they messed up this much, no.
17:48Really?
17:49So that's it with you? You just get one shot, and you screw up, and you're out?
17:53I didn't know you were such a cynic.
17:56I'm sorry. All right, I guess it's just the way I'm wired.
18:01But I got a job over in Greenwood, so I'll call you later tonight.
18:08You okay?
18:09Julie.
18:10I did something bad, something really, really bad.
18:11Aren't you going to ask me what it was?
18:12Do I ever have to?
18:13Last week, when Mike and I went to the park searching for Zach, I sort of found him.
18:20No.
18:21Yes.
18:22And I gave him money, and I sent him away, and I didn't tell Mike.
18:23Holy crap, what are you going to do?
18:24I don't know.
18:25What would you do if this happened to you?
18:26See, this would never happen to me.
18:27This kind of thing only happens to you.
18:28Will you stop?
18:29No.
18:30No.
18:31No.
18:32No.
18:33No.
18:34No.
18:35No.
18:36No.
18:37No.
18:38No.
18:39No.
18:40No.
18:41No.
18:42No.
18:43No.
18:44No.
18:45No.
18:46No.
18:47No.
18:48No.
18:49No.
18:50No.
18:51No.
18:52No.
18:53No.
18:54I can't do that.
18:55Whatever.
18:56That's never happened to me.
18:57This kind of thing only happens to you.
18:58Will you stop judging, and help me?
18:59Well, obviously you're gonna have to tell him.
19:00Well, I can't do that.
19:01You heard what he said about his wiring, I betrayed him.
19:03He'll never forget me.
19:04OK.
19:05Don't tell him.
19:06Well, how can I not?
19:08I feel so guilty, I can barely look him in the eye when he talks about Zach.
19:11So where do you think Zach went?
19:15Utah.
19:19Oh lord, why did I do this?
19:23I have a feeling you did it for me.
19:46Hey, girl.
19:47I hope you are in the mood for margaritas,
19:50because it is tonight at O'Donnell's.
19:52Oh, fun.
19:53But I can't go tonight because I promised the twins
19:56that I would help them finish their science project.
19:59Lynette, if the late hours are going to be an issue for you,
20:04we probably should talk about finding you a less demanding account.
20:10You're going to take me off Kamarov because I won't go drinking with you?
20:14No, well, God, no, honey.
20:16I get it.
20:16You have a family.
20:18Home has to come first for you.
20:21I mean, for me, the client comes first.
20:23I mean, being a perfectionist is my own neurotic issue,
20:25and I know that I really need to work on that.
20:27But trust me, I will never sleep again if this campaign gets mucked up.
20:33I'll figure something out.
20:35You go home.
20:35Have a good night.
20:39Nina?
20:41Yeah?
20:41I can handle the extra hours.
20:45Oh, Lynette.
20:46You sure?
20:47Yeah.
20:48I'll get my coat.
20:53Wow, this place is rowdy after happy hour, huh?
20:57Yeah.
20:58Hey.
21:00Look at that guy.
21:01Right there.
21:02The end of the bar.
21:03The shoulders with the tan jacket.
21:05Yeah?
21:05Go get him for me.
21:27Uh-huh.
21:28Huh?
21:29Huh?
21:29Huh?
21:30Uh-huh.
21:31Huh?
21:31Huh?
21:31Uh-huh.
21:33Go get him for me.
21:34Hey, there.
21:51So, they're going on about Melanie Foster on the news.
21:58It's time we talked about her, Caleb.
22:00Until you start accepting responsibility for what happened, you know I can't let you out of here.
22:19What the hell is this?
22:20Mom!
22:23Where are you?
22:25I'll be right back.
22:27And I will expect you to answer me.
22:30Where are you?
22:31I'm coming!
22:33Coming!
22:40What were you going to do with this?
22:43Don't.
22:44I know who really killed Melanie Foster.
22:46You've arrested the wrong man.
22:47What are you thinking?
22:48The police need to know the truth.
22:50The hell they do!
22:51This is our chance!
22:52We are so people.
22:54Don't let an innocent man go to jail.
22:57You want to do the right thing?
22:58Well then call 911 and tell him you got a killer locked up in the basement.
23:01He is not a killer.
23:02He was confused.
23:04He didn't know what he was doing.
23:06He knows a lot more than you give him credit for.
23:10I'm mailing the letter.
23:11Do you realize what's going to happen?
23:13Mom, are you thinking this through?
23:17I'm mailing the letter.
23:18Dad, if you do, you better hope to God they don't find us.
23:26Because they're not going to care how slow Caleb is.
23:29They'll just execute him.
23:30Mom, are you kidding me?
23:41There's a way down.
23:41Mom, don't you?
23:42What the hell?
23:42Mom, don't you?
23:43Don't you?
23:44I don't know.
23:45Mom!
23:46Mom, don't you?
23:46You're just kidding me.
23:49Mom...
23:49Mom...
23:49Mommy...
23:50Mom...
23:51Mom...
23:51Mommy...
23:51Are you kidding me?
23:52Mom...
23:52Mom...
23:52Mom...
23:53Mom...
23:53Mom...
23:54Mom...
23:54Mom...
23:56Mom...
23:56Mom...
23:56Mom...
23:57Mom...
23:59Are you here? It's Susan.
24:02Lonnie?
24:04Susan? What are you doing here?
24:07Well, I just came over to give you the contracts.
24:09Your door was open.
24:11Oh, great.
24:14Sorry, this place is such a mess.
24:17I've been working here till we get the new offices painted.
24:20Wait till you see them. They're going to be really beautiful.
24:26Where's Jeannie?
24:28She's with the kids up in Minnesota visiting her mom.
24:31They love it up there.
24:34Keep changing the date on dear old dad.
24:42There's no electricity.
24:44There isn't?
24:46I'm such a dummy.
24:48I've been...
24:49I've been so swamped I must have forgotten to pay the electric bill.
24:54Lonnie.
24:55Lonnie.
24:55How much financial trouble are you really in?
25:02I'm fine.
25:06You know what it is?
25:07I had to pay all those people back at the same time.
25:10Restitution plus interest.
25:11It's not something I'd recommend.
25:13It sucks you dry.
25:14I'm going to ask you a question, and I want you to tell me the truth.
25:21Did you steal from me?
25:23Absolutely not.
25:24Please don't lie.
25:26Just tell me.
25:27Is that what you want to hear?
25:30Do I have to say it so that we can move on?
25:37Fine.
25:37I did it.
25:39But yours was the first money I paid back, so the slate's been wiped clean.
25:43Let's just move past it.
25:46Suze.
25:46I'm sorry.
25:49I just can't trust you anymore.
25:51Yes, you can.
25:52No, I can't.
25:53You can.
25:54You can't.
25:55Give me the contract.
25:56No.
25:59Okay.
26:00Okay.
26:00Fine.
26:03What are you doing?
26:05Are you trying to take me down with you?
26:07I am not going down!
26:10Ow!
26:11My life is great!
26:14I have never been happier, and I've never been bitter!
26:19Get off me, you Amazon!
26:22Ow!
26:34What are you doing here?
26:35He left me a message.
26:36You said you wanted to talk.
26:38Yeah, I thought you'd schedule an appointment later.
26:41Right now, I'm sort of disgusting and sweaty.
26:45I'm a criminal lawyer.
26:46I've seen worse.
26:57So, did you find a new lawyer for Mr. Charming?
27:00I don't want a new lawyer.
27:01I want you.
27:02So does Carlos.
27:03He just doesn't realize it yet.
27:05So, 1988.
27:06Romani, Conti, La Tosh.
27:08I'm impressed.
27:09Look, to be honest, Carlos is a little threatened by you.
27:13He thinks if we spend too much time together that something might happen.
27:18Somebody's got an active imagination.
27:21Corkscrew.
27:21No, David, we're not here to drink wine, okay?
27:25This is business.
27:26Now, you have to convince Carlos that he can trust you.
27:30How am I going to do that?
27:31How am I going to do that?
27:33I don't know.
27:34Tell him you're happily married or gay.
27:38Yeah, right.
27:40You're a lawyer.
27:41You lie to juries all the time.
27:42Can't you just make something up?
27:43I've passed the point in my career where I have to beg for work.
27:46I'm sorry.
27:47Okay, David.
27:48I'm holding my marriage together by my fingernails.
27:51If Carlos serves this full sentence, I don't think we're going to make it.
27:53So, please, I need you.
27:56I'll say this much for Carlos.
27:57He's got excellent taste.
28:01In wine.
28:03Montraché.
28:04It's good stuff.
28:06Are you going to help me or not?
28:08We'll go see Carlos tomorrow.
28:10I'll turn him around for you.
28:11Really?
28:12What are you going to say?
28:14Play it by ear.
28:15I don't want to sound too over-rehearsed.
28:19Hey, that's my wine.
28:21Get deducted from my bill.
28:23It all started with bad real estate investments.
28:31You should have just come clean.
28:33Yeah, well, you tell one lie, the second one comes easy.
28:37Then you're making up new lies to cover up the old ones.
28:40Pretty soon you can't turn back, you know?
28:44I do.
28:47When Jeannie finally caught on, she took the kids,
28:50she took the furniture,
28:52the bank,
28:53locked me out of my own house.
28:58Wow.
29:00That's why I can't lose you as a client.
29:03Well, I'm sorry, but you have.
29:07I don't blame you.
29:09You'll never lose my friendship, though.
29:12I mean that.
29:14Really?
29:14Of course.
29:16You're my Lon.
29:17You're my Susie.
29:22You're my Susie.
29:28Oh, what the hell is wrong with you?
29:31I'm your Lonnie.
29:32That's what you said.
29:33Not like that.
29:34But I thought, I mean, there's always been this magnetism.
29:37No, there has not been, and there never will be.
29:41Oh, my God.
29:43But I was just coming clean.
29:49Hey, Morgan.
29:53Got a letter from some guy claiming he attacked Melanie Foster.
29:56You ran me down for that?
29:58I got dozens of coops coming out of the woodwork,
30:00all saying we arrested the wrong guy.
30:03This one knows about the axe.
30:04Yes.
30:04Yes.
30:07Here you go, Mrs. Vandekamp.
30:26Uh, the hearse is right outside, so if you'll just follow me.
30:29Oh, shoot.
30:30There's a form I need you to sign.
30:32I think I left it back in the office.
30:33That's all right.
30:34I'll wait.
30:34Okay.
30:37I'm here, sweetheart.
30:46And I'm going to take care of everything.
30:49But you knew that, didn't you?
30:50You've always known that you can count on me.
30:54Mrs. Vandekamp.
30:56Detective Barton, what are you doing here?
30:58Oh, just taking care of some business.
31:02Is this...
31:02Yes.
31:04This is Rex.
31:07I want to thank you again for what you did.
31:10It was so refreshing to be treated with kindness
31:13after weeks of just ludicrous accusations.
31:17The doctor doesn't think they're ludicrous.
31:19Well, I know, but Rex died in his care.
31:21I mean, of course, he'd like to blame someone else.
31:23But the tests he did, uh...
31:25Oh, please don't talk to me about tests.
31:27Rex was not poisoned,
31:29and no one I know believes that he was.
31:30Rex did.
31:34What?
31:35Well, the doctor told Rex he was being poisoned,
31:37and Rex believed him.
31:40How would you know that?
31:41Oh!
31:52Where did you get this?
31:54We found that in Rex's bed after he died.
31:55That is his handwriting, isn't it?
31:57You know what I think?
32:09Rex...
32:10Rex...
32:11felt guilty for the way he treated you.
32:15The adultery, the public humiliations.
32:18That's why he forgave you.
32:20He understood why you did it.
32:21How could he have believed this?
32:26But my wife cheated on me, too.
32:28I know how much it hurts.
32:32And so will a judge.
32:34Everyone understands crimes of passion.
32:37But every day that you stonewall
32:41makes you look more and more
32:43like a cold, calculating killer.
32:46We both know that's not you.
32:49But I can't help you
32:51unless you start telling the truth.
32:53I'm sorry, but I...
33:05I, um...
33:06I have to go.
33:07I have some things that I need to take care of.
33:16Bree, it is obvious
33:17your husband loved you very much.
33:19Don't you think you owe to him
33:20to admit the truth?
33:21Detective, I know exactly
33:22what my husband deserves.
33:24Now, would you be a dear?
33:48What's he doing here?
33:50I have a pitch for you.
33:54I want to explain to you
33:55why I think it's in your best interest
33:56for you to allow me to represent you.
34:00Oh, for Pete's sake, Carlos.
34:01At least listen to the man.
34:05I guess it beats sitting in my cell.
34:09Now, I don't think you have a problem
34:10with me as a lawyer.
34:12Clearly, I'm the real deal.
34:13I sense your problem with me
34:14is more personal.
34:17You sense right?
34:18You want to know if I'm interested
34:19in sleeping with your wife?
34:22Well, the answer is yes.
34:31Carlos, he's kidding.
34:36Tell him you're kidding.
34:37Shut it.
34:39Now, clearly, Gabrielle is willful,
34:41self-centered, and manipulative.
34:42She's also beautiful enough
34:45to be worth the trouble.
34:47So the minute we leave this room,
34:48I'm going to aggressively pursue her.
34:50And when I succeed, which I will,
34:51we're going to fly to my chateau
34:52in Chamonix and have dinner
34:53in a local bistro.
34:54They make the best raclette
34:55in all of Europe.
34:57We'll make love by the fire
34:58and afterwards do a little midnight skiing.
35:00You ski, don't you?
35:04You're athletic.
35:05You'll learn.
35:06Anyway, all of this only happens
35:08if you fire me.
35:09If you keep me on as your lawyer,
35:10your wife's off limits.
35:12I'd get this barred for sleeping
35:14with the client's wife,
35:15and nobody's worth that,
35:16not even her.
35:19So that's my pitch.
35:21I'll let you think about it.
35:22Honey, I am so sorry.
35:30Obviously, that guy's insane.
35:32Well, you just can't wait, can you?
35:36What?
35:37He's my lawyer.
35:40But Carlos...
35:40And that's all there is to it.
35:42How about a dance?
35:53How about it?
35:54Yes.
35:56Well, you guys have fun.
35:58This is the fifth night in a row.
36:00I haven't been home to tuck in my kids,
36:01so I want to go.
36:03No, you're going to stay put.
36:05It is Friday night,
36:06and you have all the weekend
36:06to play with your kids.
36:09Watch my purse.
36:12Hey, I'm Chuck.
36:27Chuck, I'm going to stop you right there.
36:30Happily married.
36:32Well, looks like we
36:35have got something in common.
36:38Ah.
36:42Chuck, get your hand off my thigh.
36:47No, not up my thigh.
36:49Off it.
36:51Come on, what's the matter with you?
36:53I'm not available,
36:54and I'm not that easy.
36:55Well, what are you doing
36:56in a pickup bar at 10.30 at night?
36:57Well, I don't usually do this.
37:00Oh, come on, honey.
37:02Who are you kidding?
37:02I've seen you here every night this week.
37:04You're a regular.
37:04At that moment,
37:07it occurred to Lynette
37:08that Chuck, though inebriated,
37:10had a valid point.
37:12The time had come
37:13to declare a war of independence,
37:16and the surest path to victory
37:19would require an aggressive campaign
37:23of shock and awe.
37:26You've got to be with you
37:29as I'm a baby.
37:35I can't wait till I see you again.
37:41Yeah, yeah.
37:42I want to work hard.
37:46I'm on my mind, my conditions.
37:47Yeah, yeah.
37:51I want to work hard.
37:54I'm on my mind, my conditions.
37:55I want to work hard.
38:29It's crazy here tonight. Don't you want to dance? No thanks. I think I'll sit this one out.
38:39Lynette savored her victory, confident that she would never again have to engage her opponent on this particular battlefield.
38:47I love this song. Here, hold my purse.
38:59Brie, where have you been? We were starting to get worried.
39:08I'm sorry. I was just attending to some last-minute details. Right this way.
39:13Where are we going?
39:14To Rex's gravesite.
39:15Well, I thought this was his gravesite.
39:17I'm changing it.
39:18Why?
39:19Well, he did something to upset me, and I want him gone.
39:21What did he do?
39:22You know, it's so unpleasant. I'd rather not get into it.
39:25Have you seen these gravestones? Some are from the 1800s. Just fascinating.
39:29Wait, wait. You're going to have to explain. Rex, he's dead. What could he have done to upset you?
39:34My husband, the man I spent my life with for 18 years, died thinking that I murdered him.
39:44What?
39:45Yes, the cardiologist shared this moronic theory with Rex, and Rex believed him.
39:50Are you sure?
39:51Yes, because he left a note, and it said, and I quote,
39:54Brie, I understand, and I forgive you.
39:57Oh, I spent 18 years of my life with this man. How could he not know me?
40:07Well, maybe he was forgiving you for something else.
40:13I have done nothing to be forgiven for!
40:17I was a fantastic wife!
40:20When he was sick, I nursed him.
40:22When we were low on money, I stayed within a budget.
40:24I cooked his meals. I mended his clothes.
40:26For the love of God, I used to check his back for acne.
40:30I'm that miserable son of a bitch.
40:34Has the nerve to understand and forgive me?
40:37Well, it jokes on him because I do not understand, and I do not forgive.
40:46Hi.
40:47We're just going to a funeral.
40:51Wait, this way.
40:52Honey, I know you're hurt, but are you sure you're not going to change your mind?
41:08I mean, there's no turning back after this.
41:11If you think I'm going to lay next to someone for eternity who thinks I'm a murderer, you're crazy.
41:15As far as I'm concerned, let him decompose with strangers.
41:19Everyone in the world needs someone they can depend on.
41:39Be they faithful friends, determined advocates, or a loving family.
41:53But occasionally in life, the people we thought would always be there for us, leave.
42:05And if that happens,
42:08it's amazing the lengths we'll go to
42:12to get them back.
42:15To be continued...
42:29To be continued...
