00:02Previously on Desperate Housewives...
00:04Why on earth would you let them finger paint before breakfast?
00:07It's my job to clean that up now, so it's my call.
00:10Some households reverse roles...
00:12Let's give this another shot.
00:14Some old flames...
00:15You want me back?
00:16Yeah.
00:17...were put out...
00:18It has to be something you're ingesting.
00:20Who prepares your meals?
00:22I understand you've been having some marital problems.
00:25And while some learn to forgive...
00:27Deirdre got pregnant before I went to jail.
00:30Zack is your son, isn't he?
00:33Yeah.
00:34Wow.
00:34Others could not bring themselves to forget their past.
00:47The remarkable thing about Danny Farrell...
00:50...was that he had only been a paperboy for six months.
00:53And in that time, he had become the enemy...
00:57...of every woman on Wisteria Lane.
00:59If there was a puddle on someone's property...
01:03...he found it.
01:06If a new rosebush had just been planted...
01:10...he destroyed it.
01:13If a cat was enjoying a moment in the sun...
01:18...he ended it.
01:22People wondered if Danny would ever change.
01:27They should have talked to Susan Meyer.
01:29She could have told them...
01:34...obnoxious boys tend to become...
01:36...obnoxious men.
01:40...just like the one...
01:43...she had been married to.
01:47Hey!
01:49Carl, I see you!
01:51Just stop right there!
01:54Hey, Susie Q.
01:55What are you doing?
01:56I'm just getting the paper.
01:58That's Edie's paper!
01:59That's Edie's paper!
01:59And this is Edie's house!
02:01Do we have to do this now?
02:02I haven't had my coffee yet.
02:03Did you spend the night with Edie?
02:09Oh, my God!
02:10Susie, just calm down.
02:12You are forbidden from ever seeing her again.
02:14Do you hear me?
02:15Forbidden.
02:16We're divorced.
02:18You can't tell me who I can date.
02:19I live on this street.
02:21Your daughter lives on this street.
02:23I will not have you flaunting your sexcapades in front of us.
02:27Sexcapades?
02:27Forbidden.
02:29I would love to continue this, but it's time for breakfast.
02:32And Edie is making me a frittata.
02:35Oh!
02:36Well, I just bet she is!
02:46Mrs. Meyer, I gotta talk to you.
02:48Now's not a good time, Danny.
02:49You're a month behind in your payments.
02:51I'll take care of it.
02:52I promise.
02:53My dad says if you read something and you don't pay for it, that's the same as stealing.
02:57Hi, Ida.
02:58Can we talk about this later?
02:59I just found out my ex is dating my neighbor, and I'm really ticked off.
03:03Save it!
03:04I provide you a service, and I deserve to be paid for that service.
03:07Yes, the women of Wisteria Lane believed Danny Farrell to be the enemy.
03:13Deadbeat!
03:19They also believed the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
03:42Double, what your other family would be a friend if you would talk about it.
03:44You may be a friend if you have a friend.
03:49Spending back to the country.
03:49And you know I could think that there's a friend.
03:49I'm not going to be one of the other friends.
03:51He's doing both of your friends and friends and friends.
03:52Bye, I'm a friend.
03:53See you!
03:53I'm a friend!
03:54Bye, my friend!
03:54Bye, my friend!
03:54See you!
03:54Bye, my friend!
03:55I'm a friend!
03:59Bye, my friend!
04:02Bye!
04:11Beautiful lawns, spacious homes, happy families.
04:17These are the hallmarks of suburbia.
04:20But if you look beneath the veneer of gracious living,
04:25you will see a battle raging, a battle for control.
04:30You see the combatants everywhere, engaged in their routine skirmishes,
04:36fighting fiercely to have dominion over the world around them,
04:40all the while knowing it's a battle they will lose.
04:45Oh, hey, honey, just stick that anywhere. I'll take care of it.
04:48Wow. It's really piling up.
04:53Don't worry. I have a system.
04:56Really?
04:57Yeah. Every two days, I clean.
05:00Two days?
05:02Yeah. I let the mess accumulate for two days,
05:05and then I clean until it's sparkling,
05:07and then the cycle starts all over again.
05:09And why have I never seen the sparkling part?
05:14Because by the time you get home from work,
05:16the boys have messed everything up again.
05:18See, that's what I would call a flaw in the system.
05:21What are you doing?
05:23I think I'm asking you to clean the house.
05:25Really? Because it sounds to me like you're criticizing me.
05:27No!
05:29No. No, no, no.
05:31No.
05:36I'm not saying it has to be sparkling.
05:38How many times did I come home to a mess and I never said a word?
05:41Please, don't take this the wrong way.
05:43I think you are doing a terrific job.
05:45But let's be clear.
05:46When you came home, it was to clutter.
05:50I mean, come on.
05:51This is...
05:54more than that.
06:03Look at him, just chatting away.
06:05So inconsiderate.
06:07Phyllis, we've only been waiting here for two minutes.
06:10I told you when we left the house that I needed to eat.
06:14I have low blood sugar.
06:15Do you want to see me keel over?
06:17No.
06:18In theory.
06:25By the way, Mrs. Vanderkamp, I heard about your husband's passing.
06:30I'm so sorry.
06:31Dr. Vanderkamp was one of my favorite customers, truly.
06:34That's very sweet of you.
06:36I'm not just being polite, Mrs. Vanderkamp.
06:38How are you feeling?
06:41Well, Mr. Peshmer, we are holding up as best we can under the circumstances.
06:48I'm sorry.
06:49This is Rex's mother, Phyllis.
06:51I'm so sorry about your son.
06:54You know the hardest thing is to lose a child.
06:57I can't even imagine.
06:59Come on, Phyllis.
07:00Let's get you something to eat.
07:01We had no warning.
07:03I was doing dishes when I got the call.
07:07Really?
07:07Phyllis, there are people waiting, so...
07:12Excuse me.
07:13I'm so sorry, but my son just passed away.
07:17Oh, I'm so sorry.
07:20I mean, I was telling Mr. Pashmuti here, my life is over.
07:28My life is over.
07:33This is ridiculous.
07:34You know that?
07:35Pen.
07:36Do you think I have better things to do than to bring you checks every day?
07:40Checks that I could be signing at home?
07:43This one's dry.
07:45You know, taking away my access to our account, that's just vindictive.
07:50Do you know how long it takes me to schlep out here to this hellhole?
07:53Exactly.
07:54It's the only way I can guarantee you'll come and visit me.
07:56That's ridiculous.
07:57You're my husband.
07:57I love you.
07:59Obviously, I would come visit.
08:00I thought it was obvious that when you love someone, you wouldn't have an affair.
08:03I was wrong, wasn't I?
08:06I'm getting really tired of this song, Carlos.
08:09Isn't it about time you forgave me?
08:10You want my forgiveness, you got it.
08:13My trust, that you're going to have to hurt.
08:16Be careful, Carlos.
08:17Up until now, I've been really lonely in that big bed of ours.
08:20When you're rude to me, it makes me want to be not so lonely.
08:23Comments like that are exactly why you'll never again have access to my money.
08:27Why are all rich men jerks?
08:29Same reason all beautiful women are bitches.
08:35So, same time tomorrow?
08:37Sure, baby.
08:44What do you mean you know?
08:45I mean I know.
08:48What are you saying?
08:49That your father actually told you he was going to be having a one-night stand with Edie
08:52Britt?
08:53Uh, Mom, this wasn't a one-night stand.
08:55He's been going out with Mrs. Britt for a few months now.
08:57What?
08:59How could you not tell me that?
09:00We share everything.
09:02That's what we're known for.
09:03That's our thing.
09:04Because I knew you'd wig out.
09:06Besides, haven't you always told me to respect people's privacy?
09:09Oh, I've never applied that concept to your father's sex life and you know it.
09:13Are you done?
09:14No.
09:15I have not even begun ripping into Edie Britt yet.
09:18Oh, that peroxide vulture.
09:21I just know as sure as I am standing here that she went after your father just to tick
09:26me off.
09:27Wrong again.
09:28What?
09:29He asked her out.
09:30You lie.
09:31It's true.
09:32He called her for a date six months ago.
09:34The day after my birthday party.
09:37The one at the piano bar?
09:39Yeah.
09:41What is it?
09:43Oh, um, your father just came over that day and told me some stuff.
09:49You know, some stuff that I haven't and can't tell you.
09:54Wait, whatever happened to you, we share everything.
09:57Isn't that our thing?
09:58What we're known for?
10:01Um, actually I think what we're known for is sharing clothes.
10:04Yeah, I think that's our thing.
10:26Why does he keep doing that?
10:29He knows it's annoying.
10:31He's just trying to get to us.
10:34Yeah, well, it's working.
10:43Now get off down there.
10:44Do you hear what I'm saying?
10:46Matthew.
10:47Matthew.
10:51Sit down.
11:00You know we don't talk to him.
11:03That's part of his punishment.
11:06How can you just sit here hour after hour and listen to that?
11:12Well, that's part of mine.
11:29Carlos, what is this big emergency?
11:31I had to cancel my hair apartment with Eduardo today.
11:37Maybe what is it?
11:39I'm completely freaked out.
11:41Why?
11:44There's this guy.
11:46His name's Richie.
11:47And he's been saying some stuff to me.
11:50And I'm getting worried.
11:52Lenny, you and your macho bride.
11:55Just tell him you're flattered, but you don't swing that way.
11:58He's not hitting on me, you idiot.
12:00He's threatening me.
12:01Really?
12:02How?
12:04He said he's going to beat me up unless I come up with some money.
12:08Well, how much money?
12:09$7,000.
12:10$7,000?
12:12Keep your voice down.
12:13Why would he think you have that kind of money?
12:15Because yesterday, in a visiting room filled with criminals, my wife referred to me as a rich man.
12:21Oh, right.
12:23Sorry.
12:24That's why I needed you to bring the checkbook.
12:26He's actually willing to take a check?
12:30No.
12:31No.
12:32You're going to take the money to his girlfriend.
12:34And if she doesn't get it by tomorrow, I'm screwed.
12:36Honey, I think this is a mistake.
12:38If we give in to extortion, the guy's just going to keep coming back for more money.
12:43What choice do I have?
12:44You're a strong guy.
12:46You went to college on an athletic scholarship, for God's sakes.
12:49Yeah, it was for golf.
13:00You have all my pants.
13:03Yeah, I know.
13:04Come on in.
13:07I thought when I took my stuff back to my house, I got everything.
13:11It's fine.
13:12They're in the garage.
13:18So, how have you been doing?
13:19Good.
13:20Um, uh, good.
13:26I got a question for you.
13:28Sure, what is it?
13:29Where are we now?
13:30Where are we?
13:31Yeah.
13:32We're not moving in together, and we're not broken up.
13:36So, where are we?
13:41I don't know.
13:45Since the guy who held me hostage turned out to be your son,
13:50I think logic dictates that I should move on.
13:53The problem is, I'm crazy about you.
13:59So...
14:00So I'm thinking we should keep it casual.
14:04Casual?
14:06What the hell does that mean, exactly?
14:09Casual.
14:12Uh, well, I don't think there's anything wrong with us seeing a movie once in a while.
14:19Movie.
14:20Okay.
14:21Is that it?
14:25Jogging?
14:27There's no law against jogging.
14:31Anything else?
14:33Shopping.
14:34That's casual.
14:35That's fun.
14:37Anything else we can do?
14:39Anything at all?
14:44Mmm, brunch.
14:45Brunch would be nice.
14:54Sounds good to me.
15:04All I can do is take it one day at a time.
15:09Yes.
15:11Oh, okay.
15:13Well, thanks so much for calling.
15:19Who's that?
15:21Oh, someone named Alan Handley.
15:25My electrician?
15:28Why were you on the phone sobbing to my electrician?
15:30Oh, he called to offer you his condolences.
15:33Then why didn't you put me on?
15:35Oh, well, we got to talking, and then he had to go.
15:40He...
15:40He had some very beautiful things to say about Rex.
15:46For God's sakes, Phyllis, don't you ever worry about dehydration.
15:50Are you saying that I am too emotional?
15:53I am saying that even Italians take a break now and again.
15:56My son is dead.
15:59I'm grieving.
16:00So am I.
16:02But no one would ever know it with your incessant caterwauling.
16:05Bree!
16:07People want to know how I'm doing, but the minute they ask you,
16:09you jump into the spotlight and they forget all about me.
16:14I need consoling too, Phyllis.
16:16Have you ever thought of that?
16:19I'm sorry.
16:22It won't happen again.
16:25Of course, if you didn't constantly suppress your emotions,
16:29people wouldn't forget to console you.
16:32Excuse me?
16:33It's true.
16:34You're stoic to the point of being cold.
16:37I am not cold.
16:38I just...
16:39Well, I don't like public displays of emotion.
16:41Well, that's fine.
16:42But people wonder why they haven't seen you cry.
16:47I mean, some people actually wonder if you truly mourn Rex.
16:54People have said that?
16:56A few, yes.
17:10Excuse me.
17:11I'm looking for Rita Rivera.
17:19Hi.
17:20Are you Rita?
17:21Yeah.
17:22Who are you?
17:23I'm Gabrielle Solis.
17:26Our husbands are our roommates at the prison.
17:30Richie and I aren't married.
17:32Oh, I see.
17:34Well, your boyfriend asked my husband to give this to you.
17:39It's a sort of favor.
17:43It's all there.
17:44$7,000.
17:45Son of a bitch!
17:53Oh, don't even think about it.
17:58Um, hello?
18:01Is there a problem?
18:05Lady, let me ask you a question.
18:07Okay.
18:08This might seem kind of weird.
18:10What do you think of my breasts?
18:12Excuse me?
18:13I mean, how do they look to you?
18:16They're nice.
18:21I like them, too.
18:24You're right.
18:25That was weird.
18:28You have no idea what this money is for, do you?
18:31No.
18:32No.
18:33You seem to have everything you need.
18:36Richie wants me to get a boob job.
18:38He wants them bigger.
18:40He's obsessed with huge breasts.
18:49So, are you going to do it?
18:50I told him if he came up with the cash, I would.
18:52I just never thought the moron would actually come up with it.
18:59Not that it's any of my business, but it's your body.
19:03I wouldn't change anything unless I really wanted to.
19:05But if I don't do it, he'll leave me.
19:07Honey, he's in jail.
19:09How far is he going to go?
19:11Maybe it's time you stood up for yourself.
19:13Tell him you don't need the surgery.
19:16It's worth a shot.
19:18There you go.
19:19I'm so proud of you.
19:31When Lynette went back to work, she was aware her new job would be demanding.
19:37What she hadn't anticipated was the night shift.
19:53Hey, I thought I heard you come in about an hour ago.
19:57I did.
19:58I had to load the dishwasher.
20:00Oh, you didn't have to do that.
20:03Yeah, I sort of did.
20:06I'm sorry.
20:07I've just fallen behind at my house where I could just...
20:09I just had so many errands to run today.
20:12But I'll make up for it tomorrow, okay?
20:14I promise.
20:15That's the beauty of my system.
20:17It's flexible.
20:19You know, for the sake of our marriage, please don't mention the system again.
20:24I'm sorry.
20:25What in the world?
20:26No, no, don't touch it.
20:27Don't touch it.
20:28Penny had a little spitty up here on the sheets.
20:30And you didn't change them?
20:32The towel is very clean.
20:33Oh, that's disgusting.
20:35It's just a little spittable, a little milky spittable on the sheets.
20:37Please, I made a judgment call.
20:39Please respect that.
20:40No, I can't respect that.
20:41And do you know why?
20:42It's stupid.
20:43I'm going to get new sheets.
20:45We're not changing the sheets.
20:49Why are you yelling at me?
20:50I am not yelling at you, and this is not about spit up.
20:53Of course it is.
20:54No, it isn't.
20:54It's about control.
20:55And as you and I both know, you have some issues in this area.
20:58Why are you fighting so hard to sleep on baby vomit?
21:02I'm fighting for a principle.
21:04Being too lazy to change the sheets is not a principle.
21:07You know what?
21:08You're not going to win this one.
21:09So you better just crawl back into bed, and let's go.
21:13Let's sleep.
21:24No, Tom.
21:25No.
21:26Tom, come on.
21:29Come on.
21:30No, you come on.
21:32Just get out.
21:33Get out.
21:34All right, fine.
21:35Fine.
21:36Fine.
21:36Fine.
21:37Fine.
21:37Fine.
21:37Fine.
21:38Fine.
21:55Normally, Lynette would have spent a sleepless night telling herself she didn't have control
22:00issues.
22:06But she couldn't.
22:08She was too busy figuring out how to bend Tom to her will.
22:18Hello?
22:22Hi.
22:29Welcome to the promised land.
22:32Go on.
22:33There.
22:36Good job.
22:48Oh, Betty?
22:49Betty?
22:50Oh, Betty, can I ask you a question?
22:54Of course.
22:56It's Susan, right?
22:57Yes.
22:58Hi.
22:58I was just wondering, are you having some remodeling done on your house or something?
23:02No.
23:03Why?
23:06Well, I work at home, so I'm home a lot, working.
23:11And I just keep hearing these noises lately.
23:14It's hard to concentrate.
23:16Well, I haven't noticed anything.
23:18Really?
23:20Well, it sounds like it's coming from your house.
23:23You know, it's like a clanging, clanging.
23:25There.
23:26There.
23:26That was it.
23:27Did you hear it?
23:30Yes.
23:32Matthew's very handy.
23:33He's always doing projects around the house.
23:35I guess I just don't notice the noise anymore.
23:38Even at two o'clock in the morning?
23:40Because that's kind of hard to miss.
23:42I'm so sorry.
23:44Matthew is something of an insomniac, Susan.
23:46But I will talk to him, and we'll put a stop to it.
23:50Good afternoon, Mrs. Mark.
23:53Hi, Matthew.
23:59Well, it was nice chatting with you, Susan.
24:07This is my third phone call, Mr. Flannery.
24:09And if someone doesn't call me back soon, I'm going to be irritated.
24:14Is everything all right?
24:16That darn insurance company is dragging its heels on paying Rex's policy, and I don't understand why.
24:21Well, he died unexpectedly.
24:23And that brings up a lot of questions.
24:27It's probably easier when people are just diseased.
24:35Probably.
24:36Hi.
24:38Hi.
24:38Oh, hi, Lynette.
24:39I'm sorry.
24:40Am I interrupting?
24:40No, no, not at all.
24:42I saw you walk in, and I've been meaning to call since the service, but work's been so crazy, so...
24:47How are you doing?
24:49Um, I'm all right.
24:51Okay.
24:56Well, you look amazing.
24:59Do I?
25:00Absolutely.
25:02Oh.
25:05Well, I can't imagine what you're going through.
25:13Phyllis.
25:15You're going to have to stop that.
25:17I can't help it.
25:19When people talk about Rex, I just get emotional.
25:26Well, I'm very sorry for your loss, too, Phyllis.
25:29He was my firstborn.
25:31I don't know what I will do without him.
25:35Oh, I'm so sorry.
25:38Oh.
25:40Oh.
25:41Oh.
25:42Is she going to be okay?
25:44Um, yeah, sure.
25:47Hold on a second.
25:49Oh.
25:52Oh.
25:58There we go.
26:00Feel better?
26:03Lynette, you were saying?
26:05I forgot.
26:06That's all right.
26:07It was really sweet of you to stop by.
26:10Okay.
26:17So, uh, are we ready to order, or do you need a little more time?
26:24Well, I've been in the insurance industry for 15 years.
26:26I've never received a phone call like this.
26:29I'm having second thoughts about Rex's death.
26:33I've known Rex and Bree for nearly 20 years, and I've never had any reason to suspect they
26:40were anything but a happy, loving couple.
26:43Which is why this seems so strange.
26:49I found it in Rex's room after he coded.
26:53I forgive you.
27:05I've never had to cancel my words.
27:06And, uh, what are we doing here,
27:24and if you haven't fun with Rex,
27:28George, what are you doing here?
27:31I'm here to kidnap you.
27:33What?
27:34Get your purse.
27:36I'm going to take you bowling.
27:39I, I, I don't know how to bowl.
27:42Order the movies or for a frozen yogurt, whatever you want.
27:46Um, thank you, but I just couldn't.
27:50Now, Bree, I'm sure you haven't gone anywhere in weeks.
27:52You got to get out, do things. It'll help. Trust me.
27:55I do. I'm just, I'm just not ready yet.
27:59But it was very sweet of you to think of me.
28:02Well, you know, I tried.
28:05And I appreciate that.
28:11It's all right.
28:14Let it out.
28:31You want me to die in here, don't you?
28:33Carlos, what happened?
28:35What do you mean, what happened? You talked Rita out of taking the money.
28:38Is that what Richie said?
28:40Yeah, the subject came up in between kidney punches.
28:43Well, it's not my fault. She didn't want the money.
28:45Why wouldn't she want $7,000?
28:47Because it's for a boob job.
28:48Well, so?
28:50So her boobs are fine.
28:52And honestly, what he's doing to her self-esteem is just cruel.
28:55I feel sorry for her.
28:57Please, you don't care about her self-esteem any more than I do.
29:00You just didn't want to give up all that money.
29:02Well, I do think it's silly to give someone $7,000 if they don't want it.
29:06Listen to me.
29:08You're going to go back there.
29:10You're going to put that money in Rita's hands.
29:12And you're going to convince her that life is not worth living unless she has jugs the size of Texas.
29:17Do I make myself clear?
29:21I just realized Rita and I have a lot in common.
29:25Please don't tell me you have low self-esteem.
29:28Because if I laugh now, I'm going to crack the one good rib that I have left.
29:33We're both controlled by our husbands, which is idiotic because they're both behind bars.
29:36We should have all the power.
29:38I am not trying to control you.
29:39I just don't want to end up in the morgue.
29:41This isn't about that.
29:42Gabrielle, the morphine's wearing off.
29:45I really don't have time for these games.
29:47Me either, Carlos.
29:48And if you expect me to go back and sweet talk her into getting the operation,
29:52I can't show up empty-handed.
29:54Fine.
29:55Bring me the checkbook.
29:56I'll make out a check for some cash.
29:59See, I was thinking I'd be writing the checks.
30:07Gabrielle.
30:07Careful, Carlos.
30:08You're not in a position to argue.
30:19Susan.
30:20Hey, Edie.
30:22So, uh, whee!
30:25How much do you hate me?
30:26What?
30:27Oh, Carl said that you know all about our dirty little secret.
30:30Yeah.
30:31Yes, I do.
30:32Well, I feel awful.
30:33I should have told you that I was doing your ex.
30:36Well, it would have been the classy thing to do.
30:39Well, etiquette is a lost heart for a lot of people.
30:41Oh, you've got to believe me.
30:42I never, ever thought anything would happen with us.
30:46But on our first date, Carl took me to a Mexican restaurant.
30:50You know what I get like when I drink tequila.
30:52A couple of shooters and my bra unhooks itself.
30:55Circumstances beyond your control.
30:56I get it.
30:57So, if you'll excuse me.
30:59Hey.
31:01Hey, hey.
31:02I am offering you an opportunity here.
31:05And go ahead.
31:06Vent.
31:07Let me have it.
31:08Come on, tell me what a bitch I am.
31:10Yeah, for snacking on your leftovers.
31:12I deserve it.
31:12Come on, bring it on.
31:13Honestly, Edie, I don't mind.
31:15You can skate off into the sunset with Carl.
31:18Be my guest.
31:20Well, that's good to know.
31:22Yeah, I probably shouldn't tell you this, but...
31:26While we were in my jacuzzi last night...
31:31Carl said it was the best sex he's ever had.
31:34Bar none.
31:39Actually, I'm glad that you shared that,
31:41because here's a tidbit for you.
31:43Carl said he's still in love with me.
32:10Carl said he's still in love with me.
32:19Edie, what are you doing?
32:20You are a lying liar.
32:22We're in the middle of the street.
32:23Would you get out of here?
32:24Carl never said that.
32:26Carl asked me to get back together
32:27the day after Julie's birthday.
32:29I said no, which I'm guessing is the reason
32:31for the now legendary tequila bra-popping incident.
32:34Please let go.
32:35Oh, no.
32:35We're not finished here.
32:37Well, yes, we are.
32:38I'm going to go.
32:38You don't have the guts.
32:40In five seconds, I'm going to punch him.
32:42Yeah?
32:43I'll key your car.
32:44Not if you're sucking my exhaust, you won't.
32:46Take back what you said.
32:47No, I won't.
32:48Admit it.
32:49You'd do anything to destroy my happiness.
32:51Edie, for God's sake,
32:52why would I care if you end up with a man I despise?
32:55Because you and Mike are finished.
32:57Yeah.
32:58Words out.
32:59And now that you can't be happy,
33:00you don't want anyone else to be.
33:02Period.
33:08Edie, come back here.
33:09We're not finished yet.
33:23It was an accident, Carl.
33:24Edie knows it was an accident, right?
33:26She knows you could have killed her.
33:28As it is, she's got a shattered tibia.
33:31Oh, my God.
33:32I'm so sorry.
33:34I sent roses.
33:35Did she get the roses?
33:36Yep.
33:37She cut herself on the thorns.
33:39Oh, my God.
33:43Why'd you tell Edie about our little conversation?
33:46She was gloating about sleeping with you,
33:49and I just wanted to shut her up.
33:51Oh.
33:53So you were jealous?
33:54No.
33:56No.
33:58We were married.
34:00And she's trying to make this tawdry little affair
34:02you guys have going on par with that,
34:04and it's just like I'm mad.
34:08Susan,
34:08do you remember the morning you saw me with Edie's paper?
34:13Well, the night before,
34:14I had asked her if she'd like to live together,
34:18and she said yes.
34:24Susan.
34:26Just give me a moment.
34:28And I'm asking God to kill me.
34:33Oh, look.
34:34She's fine.
34:35She goes with the flow.
34:37You know, at this time in my life,
34:39I need that.
34:42Are you in love with her?
34:45Would you care if I were?
34:51I want you to be happy.
34:54I even sort of want Edie to be happy.
34:56But what?
34:57I want to be happy first.
35:00Mike and I were supposed to move in together,
35:03you know.
35:04This was supposed to be my time.
35:07I heard you and the plumber were having problems.
35:11Is it over?
35:14I don't know.
35:20It's really complicated.
35:24So, you never answered my question.
35:27Are you in love with her?
35:30I don't know.
35:35But I can promise you this much.
35:37I've never loved another woman the way I loved you.
35:41You walked out on me.
35:43Yeah.
35:44But look how far I got.
35:46I'm just up the street.
35:50Mwah!
36:06Mommy, mommy, thank God you're high!
36:08Hi, sweet bee.
36:09Mwah!
36:10Why?
36:11What's wrong?
36:12Daddy found a rat.
36:14Oh!
36:16Titty now.
36:19Honey?
36:27I'm home.
36:29Hey, babe.
36:30Hey.
36:31Hi.
36:31How was your day?
36:32It was good.
36:34But more importantly, how was yours?
36:38Parker told you about the rat, huh?
36:40Yep.
36:41Oh my God, it was so disgusting.
36:44I came down the steps, and there it was sitting on the counter, eating a leftover grilled cheese
36:49sandwich.
36:51The sandwiches from yesterday?
36:53Okay, yes.
36:54The house has been too messy.
36:55Obviously, my system has some kinks in it.
36:58But check it out.
36:59I got my act together.
37:00Wow.
37:01So, um, I take it you took the rat outside?
37:04Oh, no.
37:05I smashed it with a shovel.
37:08You killed it?
37:09Not with the first blow.
37:12Whew.
37:14That's disgusting.
37:36Hey, little guy.
37:39I just wanted to say I'm really sorry about what happened with the shovel.
37:47Neither one of us saw that coming.
37:50I know it's not much consolation, but you really helped my marriage.
37:55That's a lot for a little rat to accomplish in one lifetime.
38:01Well, it's getting late, so hats off to you.
38:13So, you'd say the abuse started a few years into your marriage?
38:18It started so slowly, I didn't realize what was happening.
38:24I mean, he'd slap me over some little problem.
38:27But he'd always apologize.
38:30Then it got worse.
38:32And one day, eight years ago, my son spilled soda on our new carpet.
38:39Before I could move to protect him, Virgil had knocked him on the ground and began kicking him.
38:46I went to protect my baby, but I didn't get there in time.
38:51What happened to your son?
38:55He died.
38:57I came across one of his baby pictures last week, and that's when the nightmare started again.
39:03The last doctor I saw said that I needed to let go of my guilt, and then I would start
39:09sleeping again.
39:11Of course, it's easier said than done.
39:13And I am getting so tired.
39:20I'm going to start you on nitrazapam.
39:24That should do the trick.
39:28I certainly hope your husband was punished for what he did.
39:32Yeah.
39:33There was retribution.
39:35I made sure of that.
39:53Where are you off to?
39:54I'm, uh, I'm going to see Rex's lawyer.
39:56We're going to go over some details involving Rex's will.
40:03Phyllis, obviously, I'm just mortified over slapping you.
40:09I've just been in a weird place since Rex's death, but that's no excuse.
40:17I'm very, very sorry.
40:21No need to apologize.
40:23Your family, all is forgiven.
40:28Really?
40:29It's been a difficult time for all of us.
40:33Rex, I totally understand.
40:35Now go.
40:36Don't want to be late for your meeting about Rex's will.
41:05Claims, this is Joe Flannery.
41:06Hello.
41:07Could I speak to someone about the death benefits for Rex Vandekamp, please?
41:14This is his mother.
41:16Yes.
41:16We've already spoken to his wife several times.
41:19We are moving as quickly as we can.
41:22Are you aware that my daughter-in-law has a boyfriend?
41:29I'm listening.
41:59I'm listening to my daughter-in-law-in-law-in-law.
42:01Because we know to lose it is to put our fate in the hands of others.
42:11And what could be more dangerous?
42:43I'm listening to my daughter-in-law-in-law-in-law-in-law-in-law-in-law-in-law-in
42:44-law-in-law-in-law-in-law.
42:53I'm listening to my daughter-in-law-in-law-in-law-in-law.
42:54You
