So, let me get this straight, the "woman who is dead that they found in the toy chest, was the old mans Daughter?" Did I get that right? OK, so HOW is MIKE involved, I thought he was hired to find out WHERE she is? Didn't they know she was already dead? See, I am confused.

last night Noah (the old man) said that all that time he was looking for her - she was already dead - so I am not sure he knew she was dead

I don't think Mike knew Mary Alice and Paul or anything about them - he has seen pictures of MA so he would have the connection and Mrs. Huber's sister doesn't seem to see any connection and she knew MA when she was Angela - plus when he saw Pual's name on the toy chest list last night - he seemed shocked and lightbulb seemed to go off

Mike told Susan his wife died and I don't think they have given us any reason to doubt that -

 

[bubba's mom]

he was looking for her....and no, they didn't know she was dead. last night her father was sitting on a bench in the cemetary and he said "15 years. all that time i was looking for her and she was already dead"

 

[bubba's mom]

he was on wisteria ln. for a reason (looking for diedra)..what led him there, we don't know.... but he did see Paul Young's name on the list of toychest purchasers.... not sure if he tracked Paul & MA Young down to Wisteria Ln. or not....but conincidence Paul's name was on that list and he was on Wisteria Ln. for a reason........

There was just a one hour special on VH1 that went behind the scenes of the show and the cast. It was pretty interesting, but there was one comment in particular that caught my attention. They were talking to Nicolette Sheridan and she was saying that she originally auditioned for Bree Van De Kamp and that the producer said 'no no no, you need to play Edie.' Then Nicolette said, 'yeah, I went from playing a sweet mother with 3 children to being a slut.'

So...... were the Van De Kamps originally supposed to have 3 kids? Was there a 3rd kid mentioned somewhere that I have forgotten about? Or is there a twist to the story that we don't know yet?? Hmm........

they never mentioned a 3rd kid...maybe they just decided to give bree and rex 2 kids instead of 3.....there are quite a few kids on the show already: lynette's 4, susan's 1, bree's 2, ma and paul's 1......plus gabby's on the way

 

[disneyfav4ever]

Just a reminder that tonight is the special. Less then an hour to go.

 

[SRUAlmn]

Well, nothing that really led to any ideas that I hadn't remembered already. Some funny things I forgot about though:

Gabrielle leaving the party to go mow the lawn in her dress
Bree telling everyone at dinner that Rex cries after he 'you know what'


What a show!

 

[Beth76]

So tonight was the special episode? I thought tonight was supposed to be the one where Carlos was going off to jail? My TIVO didn't tape anything. Did I miss something?

 

[elgerber]

Did anyone notice that the cops said Mary Alice bought the toy chest 12 years ago, but Dierdres dad said she's been dead for 15 years but was found in the toybox??? If that is true, where was the body for 3 years???????????

Good catch.

It was just a synoposis of the season so far to get anyone "up to speed". I had forgotten about the Pharmasist botfriend(who seems to be a real nutjob) "messing" with Rex's Heart pills. (Bree's DH)... BTW-Next week's previews-they show a scene with the 3 of them next week!

 

[Sandy22]

Is it possible that Mike is Zach's real father?

Probably only dead for 12 years, she was missing before that but since it is suspected she is Zach's mother there would have to have been time for that all to happen.

Mine didn't Tape either because the guide said dirty laundry not desperate housewives. Luckily I was home to catch it. ALthough nothing new happened. It was a recap show. You can probably catch it Sat night.

Does anyone know how long Tom and Lynette have been married? His whole thing with his dad about having done something that she would never forgive him for got me thinking.

I don'tk now. But, when it showed him telling his dad last night that there was something he had done that Lynette would never forgive him for, got me thinking. The popular opinion around here is that he is living a double life. I thought that when he said that last night it made it sound like it was a one time thing he had done.

I liked last night's show. It kind of brought it all together. Next week should be good with Gabriell being pregnant.

And, who was the narrator last night?

 

[piglet too]

OK, I will give my theory, but who knows how far-fetched it really is. I was thinking that he had a "one time" affair and that was it. However it was with Zach/Dana's mom and he is the father. It is kinda out there, I know, especially since we do not know how long they have been a couple and this would have been 15-16 years ago.

 

[SRUAlmn]

The teasers for next week show that Tom hires his ex-girlfriend to be his assistant or something like that. I was figuring it was her that he had messed around with previously.

 

[chasbos]

My channel never showed the teasers for next week, darn it! DH and I kept waiting and waiting and nothing!

Can't wait for next weeks episode though!
