00:05Every hostess knows there's work to be done after the guests leave a party.
00:13And only the best of friends will stay long after the party's over to help clean up the mess.
00:26They help with the heavy lifting.
00:31They work together to lighten the load.
00:36They take on the most unpleasant tasks.
00:43And, of course, there's no task more unpleasant than getting rid of an unwanted guest.
00:53I should go move the car off the trail. Are you going to be okay?
01:00Is this happening?
01:01Are we really doing this?
01:03Everyone stay focused.
01:06The hardest part is over now. All we have to do is fill this in.
01:19Oh, my God.
01:21I thought I got everything.
01:23No. No, you missed the phone.
01:26And if you missed that, what else did you miss?
01:28It's gonna be okay.
01:29How is it going to be okay? Someone is calling the dead guy.
01:34Home.
01:35See? He has home.
01:37With people who care about him.
01:39People who are going to come looking for him.
01:41Leading them straight to us.
01:43What do you want us to do?
01:44It's not too late. We could still go to the police.
01:47He sent my husband back to prison? This time for murder?
01:50No, not necessarily. It was self-defense. He broke into your house. He threatened you. We could explain that.
01:54Yeah. Yeah. Then we can explain how he dumped him in a trunk, ate some cheesecake, and buried him in
01:59the woods.
01:59We are going to get caught. People always get caught. We can't do this. We're not criminals. We drive carpool.
02:06That's enough.
02:09This is a very bad man.
02:12He attacked our friend and her husband, protected her, and now we are going to protect them.
02:19That means we tell no one.
02:21Not the police. Not the police. Not our families. No one.
02:29And we bury the body. We bury the secret. Forever.
02:50Susan?
03:05Yes. It's only the best of friends who stay long after the party's over to help clean up the mess.
03:14Even when that mess may be bigger than they bargained for.
03:22It has been said that change doesn't happen overnight.
03:26But over the course of a month, it's amazing how much the ground can shift beneath us.
03:33A woman who helped conceal a crime is now sleeping with a detective.
03:40A man who used to look forward to bedtime is now finding himself dreading it.
03:47A woman who once told her husband everything is now keeping a terrible secret.
03:57And a couple who've decided to separate is now going to great lengths to show that nothing has changed.
04:05Was that our three hours?
04:11Crap. Crap, crap, crap.
04:20Son of a...
04:36hey guys I got up early so I figured what the heck I'll go get your mom some coffee the

25:26and I'm afraid that it's
25:29unforgivable
25:30God can forgive us for anything
25:31really
25:33anything
25:34yes
25:34if we're willing to show
25:35that we are truly repentant
25:37how
25:38well it's
25:39not by what we say
25:41it's by what we do
25:44for instance
25:45if we were
25:46talking about a crime
25:49then confessing
25:50to the authorities
25:51would prove
25:52the intentions
25:53of our heart
25:57that
25:59is not an option
26:02there are other people involved
26:03innocent people
26:05you can't ask
26:06to be absolved
26:07for a sin
26:07that you intend
26:08to keep hidden

29:28Yeah, yeah, the kids are fine. I just...
29:31What? Did something happen?
29:32I really need you right now.
29:36Okay.
30:06Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
30:08Crap! Crap! Crap!
30:13Come on. Okay, come on. Watch out for...
30:16Okay, okay. No, I'm okay. Okay, go.
30:20Shh, shh, shh, shh.
30:25I'm still asleep.
30:27Thank God.
30:31I'll start the coffee.
30:32Okay, you read my mind.
30:37Yeah.
30:39So last night?
30:41Yeah.
30:43We should talk about it.
30:46Huh?
30:49I mean, if you want to get back together, I'm open to that.
30:56But we have some serious problems that are going to require serious work.
31:03Oh, God.
31:06Last night was not about getting back together.
31:18And what the hell was it about?
31:23I had a nightmare.
31:26I had a nightmare.
31:27A nightmare? Are you kidding me?
31:29You've got to understand, I'm having a lot of nightmares.
31:33This is such a scary time, and I really need you.
31:36That's why I didn't want to tell the kids having you across the street makes me feel safe.
31:43You're unbelievable.
31:45You know what you do when you're scared, Lynette?
31:47You buy a nightlight.
31:49You don't go have sex with the guy you were supposed to be separated from.
31:57I want French toast.
31:59I hate French toast.
32:00I want pancakes.
32:01Oh.
32:09Kids.
32:17There's something your mom and I need to tell you.
32:22Yeah.
32:27Why don't we sit down?
32:41I don't think I'm going to go this year.
32:44Why don't you go without me?
32:51Hey, do I need to be worried?
32:53I told you.
32:55I'm fine.
32:56I don't mean worried about you.
32:58I mean worried about us.
33:01I thought this was some problem between you and your friends, but the way you've been shutting me out, I'm
33:08starting to think you've got a problem with me.
33:11How could you say that?
33:15No matter what I'm going through, I would never let anything come between us.
33:22Yeah, I'm sure Tomlin and Lynette felt the same way.
33:26Look where they ended up.
33:36Oh, I had them over there without you.
33:39No.
33:41I'm going with you.
33:43You were right.
33:45I do have a problem with the girls.
33:48About time I went over there and straightened it out.
33:53No!
33:54No way!
33:54You are not bringing Mike in on this.
33:56He's not going to tell anyone.
33:57We can trust him.
33:58Just like I could trust you when we agreed to keep this between us.
34:01Susan, we all empathize with your position, but I don't think it's smart to tell Mike.
34:05Well, he knows something is up.
34:07It's affecting our marriage.
34:09You know what's going to affect my marriage when my husband goes to prison?
34:11I think we should let her tell him.
34:14I can't believe this.
34:16We all made a pact that night.
34:17I don't remember anybody bringing up these extra conditions.
34:19Well, you weren't exactly asking anyone's opinion that night, were you, Bree?
34:22What is that supposed to mean?
34:23It means you elected yourself chairman of the dead guy committee and started making decisions for everyone.
34:29Like you always do.
34:30Well, somebody had to, Susan, and it sure as hell wasn't going to be you.
34:34I'm done talking about this.
34:35The only reason I came to this barbecue was to let you know that I am telling Mike.
34:40How you are!
34:41Ow!
34:42Oh, my God!
34:43Gabby, don't call it!
34:45Gabby, get it!
34:46Trey Manning?
34:47What, are you out of your mind?
34:48Think for a minute.
34:49When is this stock ever going to be higher?
34:51Let me go!
34:51Let me out!
34:53You could get a great player.
34:55Yeah, maybe a great quarterback.
34:57Like, I don't know, Manning?
35:01Ow!
35:01Get off me!
35:02Girls!
35:03People can hear us!
35:04Ow!
35:05I told you we couldn't trust her!
35:06I can't see!
35:07I'm not here!
35:08Oh!
35:09I know!
35:10Ow!
35:13What the hell's going on?
35:17Oh, well, I lost my earring and the girls here were kind enough to help me look for it.
35:24Oh, there it is!
35:26Oh!
35:27Oh!
35:28There it is!
35:29Oh!
35:30Oh!
35:30Oh!
35:30Oh!
35:30Oh!
35:39I went food shopping yesterday.
35:41I kept having to put things back.
35:44I'd take a couple of cans of peaches, and then I'd remember that Tom was the only one
35:51who liked them.
35:52Put them back.
35:54Sweet pickles.
35:55Tom.
35:57Put them back.
35:58Mike, I am so sorry.
36:01With everything that's been going on, I haven't been there for you.
36:08I guess we've all been guilty of that.
36:13I'm sorry, Susan.
36:18This is so damn hard.
36:21You know, the good thing about Mike and Tom not knowing is they can't be implicated.
36:29If something were to happen, at least they'd be okay.
36:41We are never going to be able to tell anybody about this, are we?
36:48No.
36:53Are you going to be able to live with that?
37:02I'm going to try.
37:13It's only the best of friends who stay long after the party's over to help clean up.
37:22To cleanse the pain of a guilty conscience.
37:27To pick up the pieces of a broken marriage.
37:33To sweep away the loneliness of keeping a secret.
37:39Yes, it's good to have friends who help clean up our messes.
37:46But every housewife knows that as soon as one mess is taken care of, another one appears.
37:56And we may find ourselves right back where we started.
