00:01Previously on Desperate Housewives,
00:03Tom and Lynette drifted further apart,
00:06and Jane took advantage.
00:09I'm scared.
00:10Roy helped Karen face her cancer.
00:13We're done.
00:14I'm the one that decides when we're done.
00:16The loan shark threatened Renee,
00:18but Mike stepped in.
00:20I don't ever want to see you again.
00:22You should have killed me.
00:23Bree discovered the truth about Orson.
00:25You wrote the letters. You killed Chuck.
00:28And cut off all contact with him.
00:30Don't you ever call my house again.
00:33I can assure you this is the last you'll hear from me.
00:35But Orson had the last word.
00:43In our neighborhood, there are people we see every day.
00:48And every day, we take them for granted.
00:53As we go about our lives,
00:55we may be busy with a mundane task
00:58and miss one another completely.
01:04Or we might give a polite wave,
01:06only to return to what we were doing.
01:12One minute, we're spending time with a loved one.
01:14And the next, we're wrapped up in our work.
01:23Or preoccupied with our own problems.
01:29What a shame these neighbors take each other for granted.
01:33Because in just a few days,
01:37one of these people will be dead.
01:39That afternoon, old friends got together to share coffee and gossip.
01:57And to discover...
01:59Is there a cup for me?
02:01That they were still old friends.
02:04After all.
02:08So Orson was behind everything?
02:10Chuck, the letters...
02:12Do you know why he did it?
02:14They thought the only way he could have me to himself
02:17was by tearing me away from you three.
02:19Well, guess what? He failed.
02:21That's right.
02:22Because we are still here for you.
02:24And no psycho on wheels is gonna change that.
02:26And I'll tell you something else.
02:27He better not show his face around here ever again.
02:34What's wrong?
02:36The last time I spoke to Orson,
02:38he intimated that he would take his own life.
02:41Oh, sweetie.
02:43And I should have done something.
02:44I should have made him tell me where he was and gone to him.
02:48Why? So he could torture you some more?
02:50I know what he's become,
02:52but you all know there was a time when I loved that man very much.
02:55Well, he's not that man anymore.
02:57Okay.
03:03Have we been sad long enough?
03:04Because I'd just like to point something out.
03:07We are finally in the clear.
03:09She's right.
03:10The letters were the last question mark left.
03:13So maybe now we can get back to normal.
03:16Yes.
03:17Our nightmare is finally over.
03:19Thanks.
03:20Is everything all right over here?
03:29Doctors.
03:30They should learn how to talk to people.
03:31I'm afraid I don't understand.
03:32We just got back from my appointment.
03:33Looks like the cancer is spreading faster than anyone thought.
03:35Oh, Karen.
03:36Yep.
03:37You gave me the old, put your affairs in order speech.
03:38Only not that nice.
03:39These are people these doctors are talking to.
03:40Not just some name on a chart.
03:41I'm sorry.
03:42You gave me the old, put your affairs in order speech.
03:45Only not that nice.
03:46These are people these doctors are talking to.
03:47Not just some name on a chart.
03:48They can all go to hell.
03:49I'm so sorry.
03:50He's just pissed at the world.
03:51Oh, I've got it, I've got it.
03:52Oh, no.
03:53Oh, no.
03:54Oh.
03:55Oh, no.
03:56I've got it.
03:57Oh.
03:58No?
03:59How can you do that?
04:00No?
04:01Oh, no.
04:02What's going to do that?
04:03No.
04:04All right.
04:05No?
04:06No.
04:07No.
04:08No, no.
04:09No.
04:10No.
04:11No.
04:12No.
04:13No.
04:14No.
04:15No.
04:17No.
04:18Oh, I've got it, I've got it.
04:23What about you?
04:24I can't even imagine what you're going through.
04:28I'm really gonna miss the Christmas festival.
04:32The lane looks so pretty when the lights slew.
04:37Karen, if there's anything I can do for you,
04:42I mean it, anything.
04:45Yeah, thanks, Brie.
04:48Come in.
04:57Wow, the place looks great.
05:00You are going all out.
05:03Ever since Porter's big announcement,
05:05I have a new policy for all our kids.
05:08If you can resist procreating,
05:10I will throw you a bitchin' party.
05:13I just, I wanted to drop off Penny's present.
05:16Let's go.
05:17Champagne. Isn't that taking the bitchin' party idea a little too far?
05:20That is for you.
05:22You went through 22 hours of labor with her.
05:24Seems like you should get to celebrate too.
05:26That is so thoughtful.
05:27Uncharacteristically thoughtful.
05:30And now that I think about it, you could have brought Penny's present to the party.
05:34So, um, what's going on?
05:40Okay, um, I was just wondering if you wouldn't mind.
05:44Mm-hmm.
05:46Maybe we should open that champagne now.
05:48Just say it.
05:50I want to bring Jane to Penny's party.
05:53Oh, God.
05:54Look, I know it's a little awkward.
05:57Bringing a date to your daughter's birthday party when you're still married?
06:00Yeah, it's a little awkward.
06:01This is a family event.
06:03I know, but Jane is part of my life now.
06:05Yeah, your life.
06:07I'm sorry, Lynette, but I really want to start including Jane in some of these things.
06:13Why?
06:15Well...
06:16Dad!
06:17Hey, you!
06:19Is that for me?
06:21Can I open it?
06:23Hey, I know this trick.
06:24And if I let you open it today, you are going to guilt me into buying you another one on your actual birthday.
06:29That's totally what I'm going to do.
06:32And I am totally going to fall for it.
06:34What the...
06:35Hey!
06:36Hey, hey, hey!
06:37Didn't you want to finish our conversation?
06:38Another time.
06:39Just enjoy the champagne.
06:40You had to get the girls a cat, didn't you?
06:47Even though you know I'm allergic.
06:48Oh, you say you're allergic to everything you don't like.
06:51Cats, raisins, the vacuum cleaner.
06:54Hey, that is medically verified.
06:56Girl, show mommy how sad we'd be if she made us give back Rufus.
07:03Oh, how could I say no to such sad and obviously reversed faces?
07:08Daddy, you want to see him do a trick?
07:12Kitty, fetch!
07:17Now come back!
07:19Rufus!
07:22He kind of does it every once.
07:27Well, he should fit right in around here.
07:29I'm not the one who just brought kitty litter into our lives.
07:33Look, if the cat makes them happy, then it makes me happy.
07:38And one thing I realized in rehab, there is nothing more important to me than taking care of you guys.
07:44I love you for that.
07:47Ah, before I forget, I got you a present.
07:53Oh, a tie.
07:56It's for your first day back at work after rehab.
07:59Something that says, I'm sober, I'm stylish, and my wife has excellent taste.
08:03Wow.
08:05I was having so much fun with you and the girls, I kind of forgot I have to work tomorrow.
08:12Well, you could say thank you. I spent a lot of your money on it.
08:17Sorry, babe. Thank you.
08:19Okay. Bedtime for bonzos!
08:21Okay. Bedtime for bonzos!
08:23Hello there.
08:41Thank you for fixing my car today.
08:43I like a man who's good with his hands. It's very sexy.
08:46Although, I think my engine is still running a little hot.
08:55Room.
08:57Susan, what are you doing?
08:59The question is, who am I doing? The answer is you.
09:03Uh, I'm sorry. I'm just really beat.
09:10Well, that hard work really took it out of you, huh?
09:16Well, hey, maybe this is something that will relax you.
09:21Hello.
09:23Is that a gun in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?
09:26Oh, my God. It is a gun.
09:30You've got a gun in your pocket?
09:32Susan, don't freak out.
09:34Why do you have a gun?
09:37Sit down.
09:39I have something I need to tell you.
09:47Did you mean what you said today?
09:50Karen.
09:52About helping me with anything I need?
09:54Because a lot of people say that, but they don't mean it.
09:56No. No, I meant it.
09:58You sure? Because let's be honest, you and I never really liked each other.
10:02You haven't?
10:03No.
10:05Well, I definitely meant what I said.
10:06Whatever you need, consider it done.
10:08Good. I want you to help kill me.
10:12Um, maybe we should talk about this inside.
10:15Karen, you can't seriously be considering this.
10:22Listen, cancer's a bully.
10:25And when it's as bad as mine, it laughs at our pathetic little attempts to fight it.
10:30So here's how I win.
10:33By making sure that I'm the one that says when and how I go.
10:40So, will you help me?
10:42Well, what does Roy think?
10:47Well, Roy was the first one I went to.
10:49He couldn't do it.
10:51Too much of a marshmallow.
10:53I need someone cold and heartless.
10:56And that's me?
10:58A dying woman is sitting in front of you and you haven't even offered a cup of coffee.
11:01What does that tell you?
11:06I don't... I don't know if I can do that.
11:09I don't want to die alone, Brie.
11:14And the chemo's just kicking my ass.
11:17I don't want to waste away in some hospital bed.
11:22Please help me go the way I want to.
11:25I don't want to do.
11:30All right.
11:32I'll help you.
11:33I'll help you.
11:49Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. and Mrs. Delfino.
11:52What can I do for you?
11:54My husband did something really stupid and now we need police protection.
11:58Susan, please just let me handle this.
12:00And by handle this, he means stare out the window with a gun in his pants.
12:04Could you start from the beginning, please?
12:07A buddy of mine, and I'm not telling you who, borrowed some money from a loan shark.
12:12And things got a little out of hand and I had to help him out.
12:14Oh, and by help him out, he means beat up a mob guy, putting our whole family in danger.
12:19Does your friend know it's illegal to use the services of a loan shark?
12:22He does.
12:24Do you know it's illegal to assault someone?
12:26The guy was breaking into our neighbor's house.
12:28I tried to get him to leave, he threw a punch and I defended myself.
12:31And now this lowlife wants to kill my husband, so you need to arrest him.
12:35Well, if you had called us after he broke into your neighbor's house, maybe we could have.
12:38Oh, so it would have been smarter to call the cops instead of slapping Jimmy Knuckles around the living room?
12:48Have I heard that before?
12:51Oh, that's right, from me.
12:55What's this about a gun?
12:57Do you have a permit for a gun, sir?
12:59Alright, detective, I think we're wasting your time, I can take care of this.
13:02No, Mike, you've been taking care of it and look where it got us.
13:05We have a nine-year-old son.
13:08Okay. Okay, look, here's what I can do.
13:12We have your address, I'll make sure the patrol car keeps an eye on things.
13:15And if you see this guy, call us.
13:19Wait, that's it?
13:21Ma'am, I'm afraid that's all we can do until something else happens.
13:24Great.
13:26Well, maybe we'll get lucky and something else will happen.
13:35Honey, there's fresh coffee, you want me to put some in a travel mug?
13:41Okay.
13:43What's wrong?
13:4430 days with the rehab hippies and you've already forgotten how to tie a tie?
13:47I've just been thinking.
13:49I've worn a tie every day for 25 years and I've always hated the way it feels around my neck.
13:54So?
13:56I wear lots of uncomfortable things.
13:59High-heeled shoes, bras that mash my boobs together.
14:02I'm starting to think that a tie is basically just a fancy noose.
14:06Oh, honey.
14:08You're not nervous about your first day back, are you?
14:12I don't know.
14:13I just thought I'd be more excited than I am.
14:18Well, you're the boss. You want excitement, shake things up.
14:21Buy a new Xerox machine.
14:22Or get some post-its and crazy colors.
14:25Take the staff to happy hour, get stinking drunk.
14:28Okay, maybe not the stinking drunk part, but you know what I mean.
14:32I gotta get the girls to school.
14:34See you tonight.
14:35I'm just saying you didn't have to fight that woman over a pair of boots.
14:45I saw them first.
14:47On her feet.
14:49Sorry. I shop New York style.
14:51Until someone is either bruised or bleeding, no sale is final.
15:00Hello?
15:03Oh, hi, Karen.
15:06No. No, now is not a good time.
15:09Uh, Renee is visiting.
15:11Well, uh, I'm open tomorrow.
15:14Perhaps I could euthanize you in the morning.
15:16Great. I will see you then.
15:19So, I couldn't help but overhear.
15:22It's Karen.
15:27Her cancer is spreading.
15:29Oh, no.
15:30Yeah.
15:31She's depressed and wants me to help her die with dignity.
15:40Oh, my God.
15:42Are you gonna do it?
15:43Of course not.
15:44She just got devastating news.
15:46She's in a state of shock.
15:48I'm just trying to string her along and buy some time until she's thinking clearly again.
15:53Think that'll work?
15:55It's got to.
15:57By the way, to help her keep her mind off it, I'm having people stop by and have tea, you know, play Scrabble with her, maybe give her a foot massage.
16:05Do you think tomorrow maybe you could stop by?
16:09And, Bree, if I touch that woman's feet, you're gonna have to euthanize me.
16:12Mom?
16:13Yeah?
16:14This party is amazing.
16:16Thank you so much.
16:17Oh, I just wanted your birthday to be perfect.
16:19Happy birthday, Penny.
16:20Then again, nothing's perfect.
16:21Hey, Jane.
16:22Tom went to pick up the cake, so if you wanna wait in the car or...
16:33Oh, I didn't know you were bringing a guest.
16:36Actually, this is my gift for Penny.
16:38A geisha?
16:39Oh, I didn't know you were bringing a guest.
16:41Actually, this is my gift for Penny.
16:44A geisha?
16:45Oh, I didn't know you were bringing a guest.
16:48Actually, this is my gift for Penny.
16:50A geisha?
16:51My niece, Cindy.
16:52She's a photographer.
16:53Hi, nice to meet you.
16:55She's gonna take pictures of the party, and then I'm gonna make a little memory book.
17:01Cool!
17:02I knew you would love it.
17:04Hi.
17:05Come here.
17:07Funny faces?
17:09Perfect.
17:18Can I talk to you for a second?
17:43Okay.
17:50What are you doing?
17:53Just making sure I'm in the memory book.
17:55You're invading every photo that Penny and I are in.
17:58I'm her mother.
17:59Maybe you're the invader.
18:00And we're back to this.
18:02I spent weeks planning this party, making it perfect for her, and then you come in and upstage me?
18:06I'm just trying to forge a relationship with Penny.
18:10Well, stop forging.
18:11You're not family.
18:12You're just some woman her father is... seeing.
18:17Well...
18:18Well...
18:19What?
18:20Well...
18:21That's not all I am.
18:23What does that mean?
18:25You know, you should probably talk to Tom.
18:29Tom's not here, so why don't you tell me what the hell you're talking about?
18:36Okay.
18:37I really didn't want you to hear this from me, but since you're insisting, Tom asked me to move in with him.
18:47So now you know.
18:48Sorry, the cake took longer than I thought.
19:07What?
19:08This is how I find out you and Jane are going to live together? From her?
19:11Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Why? She wasn't supposed to say anything.
19:14Well, she didn't get the memo because she did say something. In my house. The house you and I lived in. I didn't deserve that.
19:21I am so sorry, Lynette.
19:26I really need to put this cake down.
19:28Why didn't you tell me?
19:30I tried the other day, but Penny wanted to open her present, and I didn't want to ruin her birthday.
19:35God, Tom. You've only known her three months.
19:39We were talking about the future, and living together is the next step.
19:44Oh, you're talking about steps now? Geez, I wonder what the step after that could be.
19:48We haven't talked about that.
19:50That's good. Since you and I aren't even divorced yet.
19:53I know. I thought maybe we should talk to a lawyer or something this week.
19:57Really?
20:09I thought this was a trial separation. To see how we did apart. To see if we could be happy.
20:20That's the thing. I am happy.
20:24And if you're not, I'm really sorry.
20:30Can I get a picture of Mom and Dad?
20:32Okay.
20:39Ah, Karen! What in the world are you doing?
20:53I lost a contact.
20:56contact. Oh, my God. You were hoping I would run you over. Well, what choice do I have? You said
21:01you'd help me, and then you keep blowing me off. Now, are you going to kill me today or what? No,
21:06I cannot kill you today. I have Pilates. You know, Brie, it sounds like we're just playing games.
21:13Karen, I really want to do this. I mean, I don't want to, but let's go for tomorrow. No excuses.
21:21Really? Really.
21:26Because I'm serious about doing this, with or without you.
21:41Hello? Mrs. Solis, it's Marilyn, your husband's secretary. Hi, Marilyn. Why are we whispering?
21:47I don't want Mr. Solis to know I'm calling you. Why? What's wrong?
21:50Uh, he's been acting a little strange, and I just really need you to come down here. He's coming.
22:06Excuse me. Marilyn, what's going on?
22:10What's going on? He's giving away all our money.
22:12Who's this guy? Patrick McDonald, our CFO.
22:16Do you see all these people? A while back, we took over a steel company, chopped it up,
22:21sold it, made a nice profit, and these are some of the workers who got laid off.
22:27Okay, so what are they doing here?
22:29Carlos has taken it upon himself to make things right by writing each of them a check for $50,000.
22:35$50,000.
22:38Uh, okay.
22:41Excuse me.
22:44Excuse me.
22:47Oh, boy.
22:48He keeps this up, and we'll be bankrupt in a couple of weeks.
22:51Mrs. Solis, I'm a party girl with a taste for young Brazilian gentlemen. I really need this job.
22:58I'm on it.
23:03Honey?
23:04Hey, babe. Took your advice.
23:07My advice?
23:08You told me to shake things up, so I decided to make work a place I want to be.
23:15Hope this helps.
23:17And remember, you can be anything you want to be.
23:21Nothing is out of reach.
23:23What do you say, Skip?
23:25Thanks, mister.
23:27Honey, this is how you shake things up? By giving away all the company money?
23:30Well, actually, I was afraid that Patrick would put a stop payment,
23:32so I decided to start using our personal account.
23:35All right. Run along, tiny Tim.
23:37Okay. Let's go.
23:43Sweetheart.
23:44What? You can be honest with me.
23:48Have you been drinking again?
23:50Nope. Haven't had a drink in 34 days.
23:53Then why the hell are you acting like a crazy person?
23:55You think this is crazy?
23:59No.
24:00What's crazy is making a fortune off of other people's misery
24:04without thinking for one minute how they're suffering.
24:08What's crazy is thinking you can find happiness in a paycheck
24:12or behind the wheel of a sports car.
24:14What's crazy is thinking that you're doing something important with your life
24:18just because you're wearing a tie?
24:37What?
24:37I'm trying to find Ben. He's not at his house.
24:40Is he here?
24:41No. What do you need Ben for?
24:42I want him to tell me where that loan shark lives
24:44so I can go to his house.
24:46To do what?
24:47I don't know. Maybe I'll give him some money.
24:50Maybe I'll kill him. I haven't decided yet.
24:51Okay, sweetie. You're a little worked up.
24:53Sit down. I'll pour you a glass of wine.
24:55No. I have to fix this.
24:57I'm terrified. I haven't slept in days.
24:59And my husband is walking around our house with a gun.
25:03Ooh. Sorry.
25:04Why are you apologizing?
25:06Mike's the one who started this mess.
25:08You mean when he stuck his neck out for Ben
25:10and protected me?
25:11Is that the mess you're talking about?
25:14Look, when you've been burned by men
25:17as often as I have,
25:18you stop believing in that fairy tale idea
25:21of the guy on the white horse
25:22who comes in to save you.
25:24But meeting Mike
25:26and seeing how he is as a husband
25:28and a father and a friend,
25:32well,
25:33they got me believing again.
25:37Susan, he is a good man.
25:40You really think that?
25:44Or are you just trying to calm me down?
25:47I really think that.
25:49And I really want to calm you down.
25:51So if I pour this glass of wine,
25:53will you not go and kill anyone?
25:56Okay.
25:58Okay.
25:58Bri, how are you doing?
26:07Karen's taking a nap.
26:09Actually, it's you I want to talk to.
26:10May I come in?
26:12Sure.
26:17Mmm, that pie smells wonderful.
26:19Yeah, Karen made rhubarb.
26:21I don't know why she knows I don't like it.
26:23How could you not like it?
26:24It's the one pie she makes better than I do.
26:26Well, may I cut you a slice?
26:29Sure.
26:30So,
26:31what's going on?
26:34We have a real problem on our hands.
26:42I can't believe she asked you to do this.
26:44She doesn't even like you.
26:45Yes, we've established that already.
26:47I figured when I said no,
26:49that would be the end of it.
26:50No, she seems more determined than ever.
26:53What the hell are you doing?
26:55What?
26:56It's my suicide pie.
26:58Your what?
26:59I made it to kill myself.
27:01It's full of sleeping pills and tranquilizers
27:03and a bottle of liquid something.
27:05Oh, my God.
27:07I ate two pieces.
27:09Oh, I'm so sorry, Bri.
27:12So, you want to go to the hospital or something?
27:14Yes, I want to go to the hospital.
27:15What were you doing?
27:20Making suicide pies.
27:23Well, if you two would grow a parent, help me out.
27:25Oh, sure.
27:26I'm the problem because I didn't want to murder my wife.
27:29Can we please continue this in the car in case you've forgotten?
27:32We need to get to the emergency room now.
27:34What are you doing?
27:38You're going the wrong way.
27:39She can't make a three-point turn.
27:41I can make a three-point turn.
27:42This is just easier.
27:44Okay, can we just please stay focused on getting to the hospital?
27:46And FYI, your turn signal is on.
27:48Yeah, I'm going to make a left-up unknown first.
27:51You're not going to take the interstate?
27:52Wouldn't that be faster?
27:53She can't merge.
27:54I can merge.
27:55The interstate is always jammed.
27:57Plus, I've got to stop and get gas.
27:59Okay, that's it.
28:00Stop!
28:00Stop the car!
28:07Get out!
28:09I'm driving.
28:12There's no need to get so nasty.
28:14I have every right to get nasty.
28:16You poisoned me!
28:17Picking that pie was a stupid thing to do.
28:19You have no idea what I'm going through.
28:21Oh, yes, I do.
28:23Three months ago, I was this close to killing myself.
28:26It was a quick fix on a very depressing night.
28:29But in the morning, I realized it was the most selfish thing I could do.
28:32It's not the same.
28:34You weren't dying.
28:35I am.
28:36I know.
28:38But if you take your life, it'll ruin the memory of everything you were before that.
28:42It's all anyone will remember.
28:45Look at Roy.
28:47Is that what you want to do to the man who loves you?
28:49Oh, baby, I don't want you to go before your time.
28:56Okay.
28:57I'll stick around as long as I can.
29:03Oh.
29:05That's lovely, but we still need to get to the emergency room.
29:09Oh, for heaven's sake.
29:11It's open.
29:29Ah.
29:31What are you going to share with me today?
29:33The results of my colonoscopy?
29:35My mom died?
29:36I shouldn't have said what I did.
29:41It was wrong, and I'm truly sorry.
29:52Are those the cheese puffs I brought?
29:54Yeah, I guess nobody liked them.
29:57Well, more for me.
29:58Twenty-three years I've been married to that man.
30:03Twenty-three years.
30:06And then we hit a rough patch, and we stumbled.
30:09And then he finds you.
30:10I totally get it.
30:11I'm talking!
30:15He finds you.
30:17And it kind of makes him stop trying to find me again.
30:21And then when someone has to tell me that you're moving in together, and we both know
30:28what that means, you do it.
30:32I said I'm sorry.
30:34And it almost sounded sincere.
30:40Fine.
30:41Have it your way.
30:43I only came because Tom asked me to apologize.
30:46I don't care what you think of me.
30:48Of course you don't.
30:48You only care about you.
30:49I think you're sneaky, Jane.
30:54I think everything you do, you do on purpose.
30:56I think you couldn't wait to see the look on my face when you told me you and Tom were
31:00moving in together.
31:01I think you actually liked it.
31:03I think you enjoyed it.
31:05I think...
31:06What the hell?
31:28I couldn't breathe.
31:29I'm sorry, I panicked.
31:32I mean...
31:33Not all of us are doctors.
31:36Oh.
31:38I think I'll go.
31:39Hey, Murphy.
32:04Yeah?
32:04You better take a look at this.
32:10Some crazy stuff in there, huh?
32:12Yeah.
32:14Any chance this could be on the level?
32:17Bree Van De Camp.
32:19I know her.
32:20She's the one who ripped Chuck's heart out.
32:24I got a feeling about this.
32:25Enough of a feeling to go dig up a construction site?
32:33Yeah.
32:39Are you sure you looked under your bed?
32:41I looked everywhere.
32:42Rufus is lost.
32:44Okay, honey, Mommy can't help you right now.
32:45Go look in the backyard.
32:46So just you, or did you adopt a bunch of orphans on your way home?
32:56Come on, Carlos, talk to me.
32:59What was that about today?
33:02Do you remember Bill?
33:03That guy from rehab I was always talking about?
33:05Oh, yeah, Bill.
33:08He was my counselor.
33:11Oh, yeah, Bill.
33:14He told me a story about his dad.
33:17He was a pilot in Vietnam.
33:19And he'd be flying his plane 3,000 feet up, drop his bombs, go back to base.
33:25It wasn't until someone sent him a Life magazine that he saw the results of his...
33:30missions.
33:34It ruined him.
33:35What, he didn't know?
33:37He was dropping bombs.
33:38Things were going boom.
33:39It was the distance.
33:41And that's what I've been doing all these years.
33:44He was dropping bombs from that skyscraper.
33:47And I can't keep doing it.
33:50I can't keep destroying lives for some...
33:55Bottom line.
33:57Rufus!
34:04Here, kitty kitty!
34:05Meow!
34:07Meow!
34:08Meow!
34:11Meow!
34:12So what are you saying?
34:13You're going to quit your job?
34:15Yes.
34:16Oh, my God.
34:18But not until I find a new one.
34:20And what will that be?
34:21Well, I was thinking...
34:23Maybe counseling.
34:26In one week, Bill does more good than I've done in my entire life.
34:30Yeah, and in one week, you make more money than Bill will make in his entire life.
34:34I'm not saying that we wouldn't have to cut back.
34:36You know, we may have to do a little downsizing.
34:38Whoa, whoa, like what?
34:40I need specifics, Gandhi.
34:42I don't know.
34:43It just seems like we have a bunch of stuff that we don't need.
34:46Big screen TVs, two cars, a really big house.
34:50Would you want us to move?
34:52Yeah, maybe to someplace with a good public school.
34:55Now you're yanking the kids at a private school, which they love?
34:59That's your solution?
35:00Help!
35:02Help!
35:03Juanita?
35:07Juanita?
35:08Mommy!
35:09Mommy!
35:13Oh, my God!
35:16Baby, don't move!
35:18I'm scared!
35:20That's okay, sweetie.
35:21Daddy's coming.
35:21Just hold on.
35:23Ah!
35:24And don't look down!
35:30Okay, baby.
35:32You think you can walk slowly over to Daddy?
35:34No, I can't move.
35:37Okay, then I'm coming out to get you.
35:39Wait, Carlos, be careful!
35:43We are going to take this nice and slow.
35:51Hey, just keep your eyes on me.
36:06Oh, my God!
36:07It's okay.
36:08It's okay.
36:09I got you.
36:09I got you.
36:09I got you.
36:10I got you.
36:10I got you.
36:26Oh!
36:27Juanita's finally asleep.
36:30Is she okay?
36:32Yeah, thanks to you.
36:34God, that was so scary.
36:35If anything had happened to her...
36:39It really puts things into perspective, doesn't it?
36:42Sure does.
36:45Well, mind you, nothing's more important than taking care of family.
36:49I could not agree more.
36:52Good.
36:54So does this mean you're giving up all that crazy talk and going back to work?
36:58No.
37:03The exact opposite.
37:05It means I'm more aware than ever of what really matters.
37:09Giving back.
37:10Why do you keep calling it that?
37:12You're not giving.
37:12You're taking from us, your family.
37:15I don't know why I thought you'd understand this.
37:17You have always been selfish.
37:19Guilty?
37:19I am selfish.
37:20But you knew that when we got married.
37:22That was the deal.
37:23You make the money.
37:24I spend it.
37:24And I'm still holding up my end.
37:26Gabby, I am miserable at work.
37:29I can't do it anymore.
37:30Do you know how many times I thought to myself I can't do it anymore?
37:34When you were drowning your guilt in booze.
37:36When you disappeared in rehab.
37:38But I willed myself to hold this family together because someone had to.
37:43And guess what?
37:45Now it is your turn.
37:46I've got something to tell you.
38:05Oh.
38:07You're still mad, aren't you?
38:08You're a hard guy to stay mad at, Mike Delfino.
38:14And I think I figured out why.
38:18I figured out what it was about you that flipped my switch the very first time I met you.
38:28You've got to be the rugged good looks.
38:30No.
38:32But they didn't hurt.
38:33Okay, so what was it?
38:42You don't get scared.
38:44Me?
38:45No, that's not true.
38:46No, it is.
38:47You don't get scared.
38:49It's what everyone thinks when they meet you.
38:53Because you always take care of people.
38:56Why are you like that?
39:03Hmm.
39:07Um, my, um, my dad beat the crap out of my mom.
39:15I was a little bad.
39:19Um, I'd hear it happening.
39:26And there wasn't anything a 10-year-old kid could do about it.
39:35So, uh, maybe this came from that.
39:39Listen, uh, but my whole life, if I see somebody in trouble, I can't walk away.
39:55But I can tell you something I am scared of.
39:57I get scared that maybe, somehow, because I'm not the most expressive guy in the world,
40:09maybe I never made it clear to you how much I love you.
40:16No.
40:18No, I got that.
40:20I should start dinner.
40:36I thought you said you were going to fix that fence post.
40:42Tomorrow.
40:44Oh, tomorrow.
40:49Hey.
40:50One more thing.
40:52Delfino!
41:03We all take the gift of life for granted.
41:07If only we could slow things down.
41:12I'm Mike Delfino.
41:14I just started renting The Sims' house next door.
41:16Susan Meyer.
41:17I live across the street.
41:19What you doing?
41:20Knocked myself out.
41:21Naked.
41:22So, how are you?
41:24I've never seen you look so beautiful.
41:29He said I'm pregnant.
41:30Mike.
41:32Mike.
41:33Mike.
41:34Mike.
41:38Mike.
41:53Because before you know it,
41:55The gift is gone.
42:01Mike, Mike, Mike.
42:06No, no.
42:08Mike, no.
42:11No, no, no.
42:14Mike.
42:18No.
42:31No, no.
43:01No, no.
