! Shouldn't the reverend say something to Bree to warn her? !

Remember , the minister swore on the bible not to repeat anthing discussed....like a confesion, I guess.

The kid is a real slimeball.

I know this is just a TV show, but in real life, what is the protocol for priests if someone confesses to them that they are going to commit a crime. Do they still have to keep it confidential?

Yes they do.

Great Show tonight! We were all in stitches during the dinner at Bree's house I think Andrew gets a lot of his ideas from Bree on how to be sinister (wonder if she realizes that?). I'm interested to see what he has coming for her. I hope Susan's mom packs up and goes home I don't really care for those scenes. I'm starting to think more and more that Zach is Dana, hopefully more will unfold once Mike starts looking deeper into the police file...maybe he will try adn break into Paul's house?!? I wonder when Carlos leaves for jail? Gabrielle certainly worked her magic to get what she wanted. Anyone know when they are releasing the 1st season on DVD? I read both Dec and Sept here in the thread.

But isn't she supposed to be dead & the woman that Mike loved in the past & said to Susan's mom tonight "I just found out someone I loved is dead" and he was looking at the pictures of the toy chest and the bones. I'm now confused as heck!!!

I don't know how the body could be Maisy since Deirdre's father said they identified it using dental records. But then again, this is a TV show so anything is possible.

I didn't care for Gabrielle tonight at all. Seems she has become more materialistic than ever and is just using every man around her to get what she wants. It will come back to bite her in the rear if she doesn't start being careful.

 

[pirateofthecarolinas]

I'm so glad that other people think it is Maisy. That's exactly what I thought too.

Great show!

I didn't think Dierdra's photo looked like anyone esle. DD lost she resemble Mary-Alice.

Did you catch Sullivan's comment to Mike after he beat him...should the file on Dierdra go "missing"? ...one less cop-killer. So, Mike's murder charge was for killing a cop?

 

[trampslady]

My thoughts on where the show is going:

First, Gabrielle is turning into a real self-centered snot! I'm really not liking her anymore!

I think Zach is definitely Dana--Ms. Huber's sister pretty much told him so. I think Mike and Deidre will end up being his parents. Why? Well, Mike clearly had a relationship (maybe even married) to Deidre (I think that's her name), and Paul admitted to a "woman" coming to take Zach/Dana away. I think it was Deidre (the girl in the trunk) and she was his natural mother. Indeed, Mike must have murdered/killed a cop...not sure on that one yet.

Susan's mother must go away soon! I've never been a Leslie Warren fan--same character every time.

I want to know what Tom's "secret" is going to be!!!

 

[Disney Ella]

What happened during the last 15 minutes? I closed my eyes for a minute during the commercial and didn't wake up until 10. (I thought Deirdre looked like a young Maisy too.)

 

[bubba's mom]

But isn't she supposed to be dead & the woman that Mike loved in the past & said to Susan's mom tonight "I just found out someone I loved is dead"

actually he said "someone I was very close to"....he didn't say "love"

 

[isyne4u]

I'm wondering if the cop killer background on Mike is a cover. B/c didn't a woman come to Mike's house at sometime and call him by another name? My theory is that he is undercover and that his cover is that so that people won't mess with him.

Maybe that would have been explained in the letter.

I also think that Dana/Zach is his son.

Just had to add my .02!
tara

 

[RobinMarie]

Usually I laugh at Bree, but last night during her attempt to accept the news her son was gay and 'be cool' she said, "Andrew, I would love you even if you were a murderer".

Which is kind of odd because he IS given he did a hit and run with her help in covering it up. He might not be a great kid but he sure doesn't get any help in that dept from the homefront! (even if a murderer, sheesh)

Did you watch last week's show? -

Gabrielle is acting like that b/c Carlos physically forced her to sign the post nup?

They confirmed last week that Zach is Dana

and last night that Deidre was the one in the trunk

also - I doubt Maisy is Deidre - b/c Mike has seen her and the dental records matched - I also think she is a little bit older than Deidre would be

also - a priest can reveal from a confession that someone is in danger - but I think Zach never indicated he would physically harm Bree - also he can counsel Bree in a way that would not reveal Andrew's plans - such as - Bree it is unlikely that he would just change his attitude overnight - make sure he isn't just putting on a game face - continue to keep your eye on him

I just remembered something t hat thows the idea of Deidra being MIke's sister out the window. Remember, the girl that came to his house a while back? She kept saying "daddy" this and that, about Deidra's dad, so it must've been her sisiter. I can't remember if she said anything about Deidra being her sister though. Anyway, he would've told Susan if the girl was his sister. So I think that Deidra was his girlfriend. The way the dad said that they were so happy together and stuff. I do think it's weird that he told Susan's mom (who is so getting on my nerves) that it was somone close, but I'm sure he woudln't want to tell her that it was his old girlfriend for fear of hurting Susan.

 

[bubba's mom]

Anyway, he would've told Susan if the girl was his sister.

you would think he would say that if she was....but, in like all the other soaps, ya don't necessarily blurt out the obvious...... but, i do lean away from the brother-sister relationship and toward the "involved" relationship

 

[julia & nicks mom]

Mike and Diedre's dad had a conversation about Mike being in love with Deidre - I am going to see if I can find a transcript about it

eta: I found the transcript:

Mike: "You are never gonna get anybody who cares as much about finding Deirdre as I do!"
Mr. Shaw: "Why? Because you loved her so much? You abandoned her, remember? You saved yourself, found yourself a nice, safe wife, and you left my daughter to rot, so forgive me if I question your level of commitment."

Thanks, I'd forgotten what he said. Wow, wonder who his safe wife was? And the whole story line with that. Maybe it'll come out soon!

 

[leahannpen]

By the sounds of that above transcript...maybe they were partners? Why else would he have to be "safe"??? Witness protection program? Maybe they worked undercover together???

Safe Wife = Angela aka Mary Alice!

 

[bubba's mom]

Safe Wife = Angela aka Mary Alice!

but not before knocking up Diedra???
