00:00All over Fairview.
00:03For most of the residents, it was a minor inconvenience.
00:07But for those with secrets, the darkness proved quite useful indeed.
00:14Millie Russell was able to indulge in another night of midnight binging.
00:19Timmy Cooper was able to sneak another peek at his father's adult magazines.
00:26Marilyn Quinn was able to steal a few more puffs of her forbidden tobacco.
00:33But these secrets paled compared to the one a certain old woman was hiding in her basement.
00:39You sit tight, Ida. I got batteries here.
00:43I keep them in the freezer for just such an emergency. I'll run them over to you.
00:48By the way, you wouldn't happen to have any extra ice laying around, would you?
00:52No, I've just got some stuff in my freezer I don't want thawing out any time soon.
00:58Yes. As a rule, darkness helps us keep our secrets safely hidden.
01:04Oh, crap!
01:12But every rule...
01:14Karen, what happened? Are you okay?
01:17...has its exceptions.
01:22When the lights went out on Wisteria Lane, Karen McCloskey wasn't the only resident left in the dark.
01:30Everyone else felt the pain of going without power as well.
01:35Ow, damn thumbtack!
01:37Susan, please let me help you.
01:39No, I got it.
01:41Ah, wait.
01:42Here we go.
01:46Here we go.
01:47We'll get a long-term solution.
01:49Well, at least it'll keep me from stabbing myself while I look.
01:52Well, if this is silly, why don't we just borrow a flashlight from Mike?
01:56Mike?
01:57He's a plumber. He's bound to have a spare.
02:00Sure, but we can't keep leaning on him for everything.
02:04Mike, we're drowning. Save us. Mike, it's dark. Give us a flashlight. Let's go ask Gabby.
02:07Actually, I just wanted to talk to him anyway. I thought we might ask him over for dinner.
02:11Dinner?
02:12Ow!
02:13You know, as a thank you gesture.
02:15Well, Ian, you've tasted my cooking. It's not a thank you. It's revenge.
02:19Well, then I'll cook.
02:20You know, you told me I should put my jealousy behind me.
02:22I think breaking bread together would be a great start.
02:25Well, let's not bother him tonight.
02:26You know, I don't really even need a flashlight.
02:28My eyes have totally adjusted for the dark.
02:33What was that?
02:35Don't walk in the kitchen.
02:36Anyway, where is your sense of romance?
02:40The blackout, you have a defenseless lady.
02:44Are you getting any ideas?
02:45Well, I'm starting to, yes.
02:48It's funny.
02:50All that time I wasted worrying Mike would come between us.
02:53Seems a laughable now, doesn't it?
02:58Kiss me.
03:03Hey, Carlos, we had a blackout.
03:06You need a flashlight?
03:09Carlos, you okay?
03:14Oh, uh, sorry man.
03:15I thought I heard a thud.
03:17I just, uh, bumped into a chair.
03:22I didn't think that you were coming home till tomorrow.
03:24No, fish weren't biting.
03:27So, uh, I got a girl in here.
03:31No, why?
03:32Oh, because when I came home, I thought I heard sex noises.
03:36No, that was just me.
03:40Okay.
03:42Night.
03:45God, that was close.
03:46All that sneaking around is ridiculous.
03:50Mike and I dated for five minutes.
03:54He's not gonna care.
03:56What if Travers finds out?
03:58Look, I don't want him to be confused.
03:59And until we figure out where this is going, I just think we should keep things on the down level.
04:05Hey, I didn't say we had to stop.
04:07I just said we had to be quiet.
04:08What?
04:08I suppose we should tiptoe around like schoolchildren so our parents don't catch us doing it?
04:12I feel like I'm 12 again.
04:14I'm just saying, I don't think that the whole world needs to know our 12.
04:18Okay, look.
04:20I will find us another place to rendezvous.
04:24But I'm not gonna skulk around forever.
04:26And no one's asking you to.
04:28I respect you too much for that.
04:33Um.
04:36If you don't mind.
04:37Oh, for God's sake.
04:51I'm gonna be right there.
04:53There you go.
04:55So, can you still cook with a power round?
04:57Oh, of course.
04:59Absolutely.
05:00Please, please tell me we can still make pizza.
05:02Little Dice.
05:03Some genius installed pizza ovens with electric starters.
05:06Oh, this is awful.
05:07On a good night, we barely break even.
05:10Tonight is gonna kill the whole week.
05:13Not necessarily.
05:15The stovetop's gas.
05:16I bought pasta for the staff dinner.
05:18You give me 10 minutes, I whip up a spaghetti carbonata.
05:21That'll knock their socks off.
05:25Oh, my God.
05:26Oh, my God.
05:27You are a lifesaver.
05:29And since it's not on the menu, you can charge whatever you want.
05:32Say, 20 bucks.
05:34For pasta?
05:34Are you crazy?
05:36More hard to ask.
05:36Oh, I don't want to scare them away.
05:38Okay.
05:39Okay.
05:43So, good news.
05:44Our chef is preparing his special spaghetti carbonara.
05:47Ooh, yummy.
05:48And we're offering that for $12.
05:50Great.
05:51For the appetizer portion.
05:53The entree is 20.
05:54Fine.
05:55Two.
05:56Twenty.
05:56Two.
05:58Okay.
06:03Shouldn't there be an emergency light?
06:06Sometimes in these elevators, there's a...
06:08Ta-da.
06:09Well, aren't you clever?
06:11I'll just call hotel security and let them know we're in.
06:13No, wait.
06:14This is the first time I've had you to myself all night.
06:17I'm sorry.
06:18It's those fundraisers.
06:19Everybody wants a piece of the candidate.
06:21What are you doing?
06:22Taking my piece.
06:24Are you insane?
06:25We're in an elevator.
06:26Exactly.
06:27Going down.
06:29No, cut it.
06:30Come on, cut it out.
06:31The power could come on at any moment.
06:33I know.
06:34That's what makes it so exciting.
06:36The risk.
06:37But, uh, I'm kind of running for mayor here.
06:39Remember?
06:40The elevator's silly.
06:41It has an emergency stop button.
06:45I don't.
06:46What?
06:54Oh, my God.
06:55That's amazing.
06:56What are you doing?
06:57That's my phone.
06:57It's our library.
07:00Oh, man.
07:01I was just starting to get into it.
07:03Less talking.
07:04More dressing.
07:10You two okay?
07:12Yeah, fine.
07:13Thanks.
07:16Must have gotten pretty hot in there.
07:19You have no idea.
07:30Karen, don't worry about a thing.
07:32I'll collect your mail till you get back.
07:34Well, how long is this blackout supposed to last?
07:36Well, they say it may last for days.
07:38Days?
07:40Hey, Blondie.
07:40Come here.
07:41Come here.
07:42Hey, listen.
07:42I don't really need to go to the hospital.
07:44I'm fine.
07:45You fractured a ribbon.
07:45You might have a concussion.
07:46You need looking after.
07:47Now, some of the stuff in my freezer might melt.
07:49How about I just run out and get some ice and then meet you at the hospital?
07:52Ma'am, you can replace groceries.
07:54You don't understand.
07:55Some of my groceries, they have sentimental value.
07:59Sorry.
07:59Ma'am, I don't need to ask your permission.
08:01Ma'am, no.
08:02Get your hands off me, you big ape.
08:04Oh.
08:05Get the restraints.
08:06I'm going to sue your ass.
08:18What are we waiting for?
08:19Get me to the hospital.
08:20I'm not a well woman.
08:25What was that all about?
08:26Your friend's afraid the stuff in her freezer is going to spoil.
08:29Oh, thank God the power's back on.
08:31Now she won't have to worry.
08:52I've made you waffles.
08:54Eat them while they're hot.
09:01What?
09:04Will you marry me?
09:07They're just toaster waffles.
09:09Ah, that was just the pre-proposal, actually.
09:12The real one will be much more romantic with a big diamond the size of a doorknob.
09:15But just so you're prepared, I do want to marry you.
09:18Well, just so you're prepared, consider this my pre-refusal.
09:21Come on, what's wrong?
09:22You're wearing my shirts, you burn my breakfast, you're here every night.
09:24It's like we're married already.
09:26We're having a good time.
09:27Why risk ruining it?
09:29See, what happened to the thrill seeker that seduced me in the elevator?
09:31She wouldn't be afraid of taking a little risk.
09:33Oh, you don't want to marry her?
09:34She's a tramp.
09:35Hold out for a good girl.
09:36No, no, no.
09:37I found what I'm looking for.
09:40Come on.
09:40What gives?
09:43Look, Victor.
09:45Getting divorced really kicked my ass.
09:49I'm sorry, just next time I get married, I've got to be sure.
09:55Okay, I get it.
09:57Just wish there was a way I could prove how much I love and adore you.
10:00Well, if you can choke down that lousy waffle I made you, that'd be a start.
10:21Oh, there's Mike.
10:24Should we see if he's free Friday night?
10:26Yeah.
10:26Yeah, why not?
10:28Sure.
10:29You know what, do you want to run this ice cream inside before it melts?
10:41Look, Ian is going to come invite you to dinner Friday, and you are not, I repeat, not going to
10:45accept.
10:47Why is Ian inviting me to dinner?
10:49He wants to thank you for saving us, and he wants to show that he's not jealous of you.
10:53How's that for irony?
10:54I didn't plan to kiss you, but you didn't exactly resist.
10:58I was in shock.
10:59Mike, why were you so upset when you mentioned Ian?
11:02Because we just had a fight.
11:05About you.
11:06Really?
11:08You talk about me a lot.
11:09Mike, I am marrying Ian.
11:11We have hired a caterer.
11:12We are going with the salmon, so just back off.
11:15Hey, Ian.
11:16Hi, Ian.
11:17I just asked Mike.
11:18He can't make it.
11:20Yeah, I'm sorry.
11:21I've got plans tonight.
11:22Oh, but didn't we say Friday?
11:24Friday?
11:25Oh, Friday.
11:26I'm wide open.
11:28Splendid.
11:29Shall we say 7.30?
11:31It's a date.
11:32Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
11:43Eden!
11:43This is Epstein.
11:44Listen, I'm late for my Hadassah meeting.
11:46Here's the key.
11:47Take your time.
11:48Oh, and don't be shy.
11:50Check out those closets.
11:51They're very spacious.
11:53Oh.
11:55Edie, what are we doing here?
11:56Checking out a house.
11:58I told you I'm not looking to buy right now.
12:00Who's talking about buying anything?
12:03I am giving it away.
12:06Edie, we cannot have sex in here.
12:08It's someone else's bed.
12:09This is wrong.
12:10Look, we can't use my place.
12:11We can't use yours.
12:13I'll be damned if I am going to pay for a hotel room
12:15when there are all these empty houses all over town
12:18that I have the keys to.
12:21Though reluctant at first,
12:23Carlos soon saw the wisdom in Edie's plan.
12:27Secret affairs are a lot like real estate.
12:30The three keys to success are
12:32location, location, location.
12:41Get careful.
12:42I can't sit down that fast.
12:43Sorry, I'm sorry.
12:44But it's going to be worth it.
12:46Okay, so tell Tom the secret of your risotto.
12:49Well, I saute spinach and onions and white wine.
12:52No, no, no.
12:52The profit margin.
12:54Basically, it costs a dollar to make.
12:56And we charge 20.
12:57So four people who would have shared a $15 pizza
12:59are now spending 80 bucks.
13:05Okay, kids.
13:05Dig in.
13:07There's just one little problem with that, Lynette.
13:09Yeah.
13:09Those families you're talking about have kids.
13:12And there's no kids going to eat anything
13:13with spinach in it.
13:15Um, Tom?
13:22It's delicious, huh?
13:23Mm-hmm.
13:24Oh, yeah.
13:25Yeah, Rick learned how to make this in Italy.
13:28Go ahead, try it.
13:29I want to see what you think.
13:40It's good.
13:42It's awesome.
13:43It's good.
13:46But?
13:48But it's just not us.
13:51Us?
13:51What is us?
13:53Look, we're a neighborhood pizza place.
13:55We serve pizza.
13:56I like this better.
13:57I'm getting bored of pizza.
13:58Porter.
13:59The adults are talking.
14:01Look, we serve good food at good prices.
14:03We're not looking to be the next, you know,
14:04trendy flash in the pan.
14:05That's not what I'm looking for, either.
14:08See, my food, it's not trendy.
14:09It's classic.
14:10Rick!
14:12Obviously, you're a great cook.
14:14And when you have your own place,
14:15I will definitely eat there.
14:16But I see no reason to change my menu.
14:23More, please.
14:32Please.
14:38Hi.
14:39Can I help you?
14:42Uh, yeah.
14:43I'm here to see Mr. Lang.
14:44He's not here.
14:45Is that for him?
14:48Yeah.
14:49But it's very personal.
14:51Okay.
14:52I don't think I should leave it with a maid.
14:54Do I look like the maid?
14:56Give me that.
15:17You!
15:19Blackmail her!
15:19Oh, man, you weren't supposed to look!
15:32It's crazy!
15:33$50,000, are you insane?
15:34No, I'm not for you to decide!
15:36I want all the negative of those photos,
15:37all right?
15:38Start breaking fingers!
15:39No, you can't break my fingers!
15:40Come on!
15:41Give me the finger!
15:42Give me the finger!
15:43Hey, hey, hey!
15:44I'm not breaking them!
15:45Breaking them!
15:45Come off me!
15:46She's crazy!
15:47Hey, hey!
15:47She's crazy.
15:48That's for calling me a maid.
15:55He works the hotel security monitors.
15:57That's how we got the photos.
15:58That miserable cockroach.
16:01If you want to smack him around a little,
16:02I can go inside and turn up the radio.
16:04Again, no thank you, but I will need those photos.
16:07Oh, no, no, I'm going to hang on to these.
16:09They're a little revealing.
16:10Ma'am, we can't charge him without evidence.
16:12And if he walks, he can do what he wants with the originals.
16:16Okay, yeah.
16:19Guard them with your life.
16:23Yeah, especially that one.
16:27We've been open for three months now,
16:29and we've barely turned a profit.
16:31We are building a customer base.
16:32That takes time.
16:34Go on, ask her.
16:35No, you ask her.
16:37Why are you being so stubborn?
16:40You would rather see the restaurant fail
16:41than succeed with Rick's idea.
16:43And I can't believe that you two are ready
16:44to toss out my concept.
16:46You know, why don't you just rename the restaurant
16:48Lynette and Rick's?
16:49Can we have futzicles?
16:50No!
16:53Sorry, Lynette, but the menu is not changing.
16:55End of discussion.
16:56I don't think so.
16:58Giving it a try.
17:01That's not your decision to make.
17:03Yeah?
17:04Well, then why don't you come down to the restaurant
17:06and stop me?
17:06Oh, that's right.
17:07You can.
17:11I told you she'd say no.
17:16Miss McCluskey always has some futzicles.
17:19Yeah, but she's in the hospital.
17:22Oh, my God.
17:36I told you she'd say no.
18:03Where's the ice cream?
18:06She didn't have any.
18:08Oh, man.
18:10Was there anything good in there?
18:12No.
18:36What the hell were you thinking?
18:37How was I supposed to know the cops
18:38were going to release the photos to the press?
18:40Everybody in town knows the police chief
18:41as the mayor's brother-in-law.
18:42Everyone!
18:43Enough, Jerome.
18:44I want you to organize a press conference,
18:45and then I want you to help me prep for it.
18:46Well, this is going to be a bloodbath.
18:48I don't know how you're going to prep.
18:49Just get me a bucket of piranhas,
18:51and I'll stick my head in it.
18:58You know, you're a single guy.
19:00Maybe people won't care.
19:01I'm running a family values campaign,
19:03and I had sex in an elevator.
19:05I think they will care.
19:10Look, I know this is my fault,
19:11so if you want to bite my head off,
19:12go ahead.
19:13You know, Gabby,
19:14there are only two things
19:15that matter to me these days.
19:16My campaign and you.
19:18And if I had to lose one of them,
19:21I'd rather it was the campaign.
19:27Is there anything I can do?
19:30Uh, yeah, you can stick around
19:31on election night.
19:33I have a feeling I'm going to need
19:34some serious consoling.
19:40Mmm.
19:41God, they're so good.
19:43I know.
19:44It's hard to decide, huh?
19:45No.
19:46No, I'm going to go with the crab cakes
19:48and the little quesadillas.
19:49Well, all we need is a wedding cake,
19:51and we're done.
19:52You are the most decisive bride
19:53I've ever met.
19:54I just guess I'm in a rush.
19:56Oh?
19:58Oh, gotcha.
19:59Well, don't worry.
20:00You are not showing at all.
20:02Oh, no, no, no.
20:03No, I'm not pregnant.
20:04No, I just know what I want,
20:06which is Ian.
20:07So I'm just eager to,
20:09you know, not get it over with,
20:11per se,
20:11but just to get to the good part,
20:13which is the marriage
20:16to Ian.
20:17Seems like a great guy.
20:19I don't suppose he has a brother.
20:24Oh, so you're not seeing anyone?
20:26No.
20:26I'm between disappointments.
20:28Well, are you free for dinner tomorrow?
20:30Is this some lame setup?
20:32Please say yes.
20:33Well, there's this guy
20:35coming to dinner,
20:36and he's single,
20:37and handsome,
20:38and charming,
20:39and...
20:40You had me at Guy.
20:42So how do you know him?
20:45Oh, uh...
20:46He's just a neighbor.
20:55Hi, buddy.
20:55What you doing?
20:56Nothing.
21:00You seem a little hopey lately.
21:01Is everything okay?
21:02Yeah.
21:04Can we go see Mrs. McCluskey?
21:08You guys didn't have to come down here.
21:10No matter what that cat scan says,
21:11I'm breaking out tomorrow.
21:13Well, Parker really wanted to come visit you.
21:14I'm gonna put a little water in these.
21:18Don't tell your brothers
21:19you were always my favorite.
21:21I stole the manna in your freezer.
21:26Lynette?
21:27Yeah?
21:28Could you run down to the snack bar
21:29and get me some green jello?
21:30Oh, sure.
21:36Okay.
21:37Time for a little grown-up talk.
21:47So can you understand now
21:48why I had to do what I did?
21:50Mm-hmm.
21:51And how you can never tell anyone,
21:52not even your mom?
21:54Hey, they didn't have jello,
21:55so I hope pudding is okay.
21:59Yeah, let's give it to Parker.
22:01A good boy like him deserves a treat.
22:13What are you thinking about?
22:16Just...
22:17This room doesn't really work.
22:20This is too sterile.
22:21Can we go back to that Spanish colonial
22:23on 3rd?
22:25Sure.
22:26Fine.
22:28You know what I was thinking?
22:29Hmm.
22:31I'm really happy.
22:34And I haven't felt this happy
22:35in a long time.
22:39How about you?
22:40Are you happy?
22:43Oh, my God.
22:44Oh!
22:45Oops.
22:46Sorry.
22:47That's not me.
22:48Russell!
22:48Why don't you check out the Sub-Zero
22:50in the kitchen?
22:50It's to die.
22:52Well,
22:53I see you can't close a sale
22:55without opening something else.
22:56Oh, please.
22:57I heard about your open house
22:59in Holly Drive.
23:00They're still disinfecting the jacuzzi.
23:03Slut.
23:04Bitch.
23:08You think he's going to tell anyone?
23:10He's a gay realtor.
23:11He's speed dialing as we speak.
23:13Then go stop him.
23:15What's the big deal?
23:16Who cares if people find out?
23:17I do.
23:18Why?
23:19Are you embarrassed to be dating me?
23:21No.
23:22I just...
23:23If Gabby finds out,
23:25she's going to hit the ceiling.
23:26Why would she care?
23:28She's dating that Victor guy.
23:30Please.
23:30That's not going to last.
23:35Oh, my God.
23:38You're still in love with her.
23:40No, I just...
23:42I mean, we've been getting along
23:44and I don't want to...
23:46I don't know who the bigger moron is.
23:48You or me.
23:51Hey, don't be like this.
23:53We're having fun, right?
23:55Apparently, that's all we're having.
23:57Edie, come on!
23:58No, fun's over.
24:09Thanks for coming.
24:11Thanks for asking me.
24:14Susan?
24:20Hi.
24:21Um, Mike,
24:23I want you to meet Maggie Gilroy.
24:31I don't believe this.
24:33You're setting me up?
24:34You need to move on, okay?
24:36I don't want to move on.
24:37I came here to see you.
24:39Well, I'm not available.
24:40So if you feel like kissing someone tonight,
24:42point those lips at Maggie.
24:45Here we go.
24:47Your beer.
24:50Did I mention that Maggie is an amazing chef?
24:54We're embarrassed to be cooking for her.
24:55Stop.
24:56So, Mike,
24:57do you have a favorite type of cuisine?
25:02No.
25:02After three months of prison food,
25:04everything tastes good to me.
25:07So, you were in prison?
25:09He was totally innocent.
25:11Yeah, a woman was bludgeoned to death,
25:13and her blood wound up on my wrench.
25:15Oh, my God.
25:17But he was cleared.
25:18All charges dropped.
25:19Here, eat this.
25:21It's just so awful.
25:22To go to jail for a crime you didn't commit.
25:25Oh, just a few months.
25:26Now, my first stretch for manslaughter,
25:29that was brutal.
25:33My worst cellmate
25:35was this guy called Stiltz.
25:36When they arrested him,
25:38they found a bowl full of ears.
25:41Ow.
25:42I think that was meant for you.
25:44Sorry.
25:45So, why don't I just go and brew some coffee?
25:48And I brought a little surprise for dessert.
25:51Wedding cakes for you to sample.
25:53Great.
25:59Thanks a lot.
26:00Now, Maggie thinks you're Charles Manson.
26:02I don't care.
26:03I love you.
26:04Don't say that.
26:05It's true.
26:06I remember everything now.
26:08When I got run over,
26:09I was on my way to propose to you.
26:10I don't want to talk about it.
26:12I do.
26:13What would you have said?
26:17You know what I would have said.
26:18It doesn't matter now.
26:20The hell it doesn't, Susan.
26:21If you can look me in the eye
26:22and tell me that when we kissed,
26:24you felt nothing,
26:25then I'll just go.
26:26But only if you can say that
26:28and really mean it.
26:30Can you?
26:32Who wants wedding cake?
26:40Maggie, these cakes are fantastic.
26:42Great.
26:43Well, all you have to do is choose one
26:44and we're done.
26:45Did you notice the themes?
26:46Themes?
26:47Yes.
26:48This one is very British.
26:50Bondant icing and toffee ganache.
26:52And this is your classic American.
26:55White cake with buttercream frosting.
26:58So which one do you like the best?
27:04Wow, it's kind of hard to decide.
27:06Well, that depends on what you're looking for.
27:08Rich and elegant
27:11or down-to-earth and sweet.
27:18I don't know.
27:19You want to taste them again?
27:21No, I know what they taste like.
27:23I'm just torn, okay?
27:24No need to get upset.
27:26It's just a cake.
27:26It's not just a cake.
27:28It's a major decision.
27:30Well, hey,
27:30if you like them both so much,
27:32why don't you have two cakes?
27:33How would that look?
27:34Oh, hey, everybody.
27:36Here's my wedding cake.
27:37Oh, and what's that over there?
27:39It's my other wedding cake.
27:40I have to pick
27:41and I will.
27:42So just stop pressuring me, okay?
27:52I'm sorry.
27:56I think I was just having a little sugar rush.
28:02Thanks again.
28:04I'm sorry.
28:07Okay.
28:19Seriously, just put it on.
28:20Just don't want you to.
28:22Excuse me,
28:22am I interrupting something?
28:24No.
28:25It's nothing.
28:27I think it's time to level with him.
28:30I just told Susan
28:30I want her back.
28:33Excuse me?
28:34Like I know,
28:35it puts a crimp in your plans.
28:37I'm sorry,
28:38but I love her.
28:39But that's too damn bad,
28:40isn't it?
28:40Because she doesn't love you,
28:41really.
28:43She didn't seem to mind
28:43when I kissed her.
28:45What?
28:45Did he just kiss you?
28:47No.
28:47It was days ago.
28:48And you let him?
28:49No.
28:50He pounced.
28:51It was hardly a pounce.
28:52You bastard.
28:53We had an agreement.
28:55Susan doesn't have to marry you
28:57because you won her
28:57in a game of cards.
29:00Well, he didn't tell you
29:00how we played poker for you?
29:03You bet me
29:04in a game of poker?
29:06Not how it sounds.
29:07I merely suggested
29:08that if I won the hand,
29:09then he would stop
29:10badgering you.
29:12And if he won?
29:14Well, I forget
29:15the exact terms,
29:16but the point is
29:17he lost,
29:17as I knew he would.
29:18I never would have
29:19waged you
29:19if I didn't have
29:20a very good hand.
29:24Get out.
29:25Susan, please.
29:26You heard her.
29:26You too.
29:27I've had it with both of you.
29:29You're tugging at me
29:29like I'm some kind
29:30of wishbone.
29:31You're just upset.
29:32No, I am beyond upset.
29:34You two want a decision.
29:35Well, here's what I decide.
29:36There will be no kissing
29:37and there will be no wedding
29:39and there will be
29:40no damn cake.
29:56What's this?
29:57Uh, pumpkin sage ravioli.
30:00Just a little thank you
30:00for taking a chance on me.
30:02Are you kidding?
30:04I should be thanking you.
30:05We took in three grand tonight.
30:08Oh, wow.
30:09Candles, too.
30:10Yeah.
30:11I think we should use them
30:12all the time.
30:12It softens up the ambiance.
30:17So, come on, eat.
30:19Oh.
30:27Oh, my God.
30:28If we serve this
30:29for tomorrow's special,
30:31we will clear four grand.
30:33Great.
30:34Uh, be sure to run it by Tom.
30:37Why?
30:37You know, I'll just shoot it down.
30:39I mean, I get it.
30:41He's in pain.
30:42He doesn't like being sidelined,
30:43but there's no reason to...
30:47You know what?
30:47Let's talk about something else.
30:48Yeah, sure.
30:51I mean, unless you'd like to go.
30:52You're here so late all the time.
30:54No.
30:54No, I like being here.
30:55It beats going home
30:56to an empty apartment.
30:58Don't you have any friends
30:58to hang out with?
30:59My friends come in two varieties.
31:01The ones I drove away
31:01before I got clean
31:02and the ones I should avoid
31:04if I want to stay clean.
31:06Oh.
31:07Yeah.
31:07I gotcha.
31:13You ever wear your hair down?
31:15What?
31:16Yeah.
31:17Sometimes.
31:18Why?
31:19It looks really good.
31:22I should do more often.
31:25Oh, wow.
31:26Thanks.
31:37This is delicious.
31:39Thanks.
31:41You want some more wine?
31:42Sure.
31:51Daddy!
31:53The paper has a story
31:54about your restaurant.
31:56You're kidding.
31:57Come here.
31:58What does it say?
32:01When Scavo's pizzeria
32:02opened its doors,
32:03you could almost hear
32:04the city groan.
32:06Just what we need.
32:07Another pizza joint.
32:08But with an updated menu
32:10from new chef,
32:11Rick Coletti,
32:12is he the man
32:13who cooked us that
32:13really, really...
32:14Yeah, that's the one.
32:16What else does it say, honey?
32:17There's more than just
32:18crayons on the table.
32:19The veal piccata is divine,
32:21and the mushroom risotto
32:22is an...
32:23ex...
32:25q...
32:26u...
32:26Exquisite.
32:27An exquisite treat.
32:29Scavo's has been transformed
32:30from a mundane family eatery
32:32into the area's hottest...
32:34That's enough, Kayla.
32:39Daddy's tired.
32:41Okay.
33:00Okay, okay, okay, okay.
33:01I know you guys like a good scandal,
33:03but I think the citizens
33:03of Fairview
33:04are more interested
33:05in the real issues.
33:11Mr. Lang,
33:13given your 15-point drop
33:14in the polls,
33:15what do you have to say
33:16to your constituents?
33:17Well, I would ask them
33:19to not base their view of me
33:21on a single...
33:22It's not going very well,
33:23is it?
33:23You hadn't picked up
33:23on that, did you?
33:26Who is she, Mr. Lang?
33:28Give us a name.
33:28No, I will not identify
33:30the woman.
33:30What are you hiding?
33:31Is she a prostitute?
33:32No!
33:33No, she's not a prostitute.
33:35I'll answer your questions
33:36one at a time.
33:43That does it.
33:45What are you doing?
33:47Stop, please.
33:48Please, stop.
33:48Excuse me.
33:49Excuse me.
33:50Excuse me.
33:53Excuse me!
33:55I am the woman
33:56in the photos.
33:56I am the woman
34:01in the photos.
34:02What are you doing?
34:05Standing by my man.
34:07What is your name?
34:08What is your name?
34:09What is your name?
34:11My name is Gabrielle Marquez,
34:13and I want you to know
34:14right before those photos
34:15were taken,
34:16Victor asked me
34:17to marry him.
34:20What did you say?
34:23I said yes.
34:24I would be thrilled
34:25to be Mrs. Victor Lang.
34:28Mr. Lang,
34:29are you going to get married?
34:31Are you set a date?
34:32Are you really getting married?
34:33Mr. Lang!
34:34In fact,
34:34I was so overcome
34:35that when we were trapped
34:36in the elevator,
34:37I seized the moment
34:38to express my joy.
34:41Oh, this is a love story.
34:43The only reason
34:44Victor kept it from you
34:45was to protect me,
34:47because he's the kind
34:48of man who puts
34:49a woman's honor
34:49before his own.
34:51That's the kind
34:52of man you marry.
34:54That's the kind
34:54of man you vote for.
34:58What do you mean?
34:59What are you
35:00planning to get married?
35:02What did you mean?
35:03What did you mean?
35:04Who did I do?
35:18What's that smell?
35:37Ma'am?
35:41Are you Karen McCluskey?
35:44That little bastard gave me up, didn't he?
35:48Today at the mayoral candidates press conference,
35:50a woman identified as Gabrielle Marquez,
35:54a former model, surprised reporters
35:56by announcing her engagement to Mr. Lange.
35:59The only reason he didn't tell you
36:01was because he was protecting her.
36:06Carlos, I don't know if you've heard.
36:08Yeah.
36:10I heard.
36:11In a few months, I will be Mrs. Victor Lange.
36:26I just heard on the radio
36:27the power company is still having problems
36:29and there might be another ruling blackout today.
36:32Do you want me to leave Ida's number
36:33in case something happens?
36:34I'm sure I'll be fine.
36:36Did you read our review in the paper?
36:40Yep.
36:43Okay.
36:46I'm off.
37:08Power.
37:09It's the type of thing most people don't think about.
37:13Until it's taken away.
37:17Until it's taken away.
37:18Whether it's the political power of the many.
37:26Or a lover's influence over just one.
37:32We all want some sort of power in our lives.
37:36If only to give ourselves choices.
37:43Yes.
37:45To be without choices.
37:47To be without choices.
37:47To feel utterly powerless.
37:49Well, it's a lot.
37:53Like being alone in the dark.
37:57I'll be without nature.
37:58If only...
