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???????????

Just a thought, but didn't we see Paul take the body off of a shelf in a plastic bag before he put her in the toy chest? I thought that he moved her after he got the note that Mrs. Huber sent that said she knew what Mary Alice had done.

Maybe someone has a better memory than I do.

I'm confused. Wasn't the toy chest buried beneath the concrete in the swimming pool? Why did Paul dig it up? Wasn't it "safer" (less likely to be found) under the concrete?

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.

I was kinda thinking the same thing

That's what dh and I said last night. Why not leave it there? The cops aren't gonna dig up the pool cuz your wife killed herself.

The body in the bag Paul moved was Mrs. Huber, Dierdre was already in the toy chest under the pool.

i got a couple of new things out of the show last night....one was Mike "loved" Diedra......he told someone (can't remember who) that "someone he was close to" died....and he killed for her before (and he's a cop killer....) hhhmmmmmm........ so, we definatley know that Mike & Diedra were an "item" and the mysterious girl that visited Mike on Wisteria Ln. was Diedra's sister. i tried to match the guy in the pic w/ Diedra up to Mike...but it was hard to tell if they could've been the same person. another thing i remember....the scene w/ Felicia in Paul's house seeing the pic of MA on the fridge....Paul seemed surprised she recognized MA....so, I don't think Paul knew MA and Felicia knew each other back in Utah......of course, the other things I got out of the show, I can't remember. sorry

Also, the name on the list from the Toy Chest Company was PAUL's name, not Mary Alice? Wonder why?

We also picked up that they said that Mike was convicted in 1987 and served 5 1/2 years. I think that would make him in jail when all of the Diedra missing/Zach/Dana thing was going on. Not sure how old Zach/Dana is supposed to be right now.

AND when we slowed the TiVo way down to see on the previews for next week it looked like that was Tom and the "girlfriend" making out in the elevator! Oh my that would add a twist. It did not look like Lynette, it did look like Tom and it looked like both were participating. Not like Tom was being attacked or anything.

I was thinking a great season cliff-hanger would be Rex getting shot. Like a "who shot JR" thing. Seems like they are setting that up, with showing the whole George/Bree gun sceens again to remind us. Plus with the preview showing the George/Bree/Rex conversation about shooting Rex. Also, Andrew wanting to do something to "Rock Bree's world" and then of course there is Maisy.

I love this show.

I noticed that about Paul's name being on the list for the toy chest. Do you think it is a list from the POLICE or a list from the toy chest maker? Because if it's from the police maybe they listed the person they spoke to about the chest, not the person who bought it.

Good catch about Mike being in prison when all the stuff happened with Dierdre! So she disappeared, he got out and went looking for her, bankrolled by her father. They must have been able to trace her movements from Utah (where we will assume she met Mary Alice) to Wisteria Lane, but then they lost the trail. So Mike has been living there trying to figure out WHO Dierdre went to see.

I bet Mike is a PI or maybe a narcotics agent who was working undercover and things went wrong. I don't believe that he is a bad guy.

I believe it's from the manufacturer because it showed him providing the list to the police.

I used the TiVo again - love it BTW- and the list had the Toy Box logo/name on the top! So, I think it is supposed to be the Toy Box company list.

And, DH did the math with the jail time. I have him hooked on the show too

About the Mike PI thing, that is EXACTLY what I think. And I think Deidra was his step-sister, partner, or something, not wife. But then again, who knows?

Zach is supposed to be 15 years old. Also, I saw him on an interview (or read it) and it said Mike is definately a "good" guy....he's not a bad guy....so, the theory of him being PI or undercover would make sense!

"Oh, sweet mother of God, what have you done now?"

 

[scoutsmom99]

What did everyone think of the show?

I wonder who's baby Gaby is having? Part of me thinks it is John's.

I have decided I really do not like the pharmacist George...I wonder if something serious will happen to Rex becuase he has been tampering with the medicine.

When did Julie decide that she didn't like Zach? Did I miss that in an earlier episode or was that just tonight?

I think Mrs. Huber's sister has the whole Zach/Dana/Angela/Mary Alice thing figured out.

I'm glad Susan did not runaway from Mike at the coffee shop (not that she really had a lot of places to run to!)...I hope those two get back together.

 

[Beth76]

I thought tonight was good. Some of the highlights for me....

Rex pushing the pharmacist into the pool, taking Bree with him..."To be fair, I only pushed him"

Lynette's husband calling her bluff and saying "Well, then I'll just have to get you a parking spot, because she's staying".

ETA: Who was that detective that Susan was talking to? I know we've seen him before, but I couldn't quite place him.

 

[Chuck S]

Did I miss a show somewhere? I mean, last episode I saw Bree said to Andrew "I'd love you even if you were a murderer." And Andrew was planning on being the "perfect kid" then turning evil...but there was no mention of him tonight.

 

[Madi100]

I thought that tonight's show had a lot of details. We really learned a lot about Mary Alice. It's going to be interesting the next couple of weeks.

You didn't miss anything. They just haven't returned to that story.

 

[jackskellingtonsgirl]

Tonight was pretty good.

OMG! Can you believe Susan went to the guy that Paul hired to kill Edie!!! Do you think he will go to Paul and tell him Susan wants to have him investigated? I hope Mike can save her!!

I asked somewhere earlier in the post if we knew for sure what sort of facility Felicia and Angela/Mary Alice worked in. Now we know it was drug rehab! I am still leaning towards Mike and Deirdre being undercover narcotics agents and something went terribly wrong so they had to go into hiding. Jail for him, drug rehab for her. Hmm.

I'm glad they didn't give Susan's mom much to say this week.

Not sure about the whole Lynette & Tom thing.

I feel bad for Gabrielle, even though I shouldn't. Did anybody else notice she didn't bother to PAY for her pregnancy test at the drugstore? I think the baby pretty much HAS to be John's. If Carlos is the father it just isn't very interesting, and Carlos gets exactly what he wants. Better that he tampers with her pills and she gets pregnant with someone else's baby!
George the pharmacist is creepy.

 

[Beth76]

Paul hired that detective!!! OK, now I remember that.

I did notice that Gabby didn't pay for her pregnancy test. Now, I've known a lot of anxious women buying pregnancy tests and they were all able to wait until they got home to use them. And she uses the same BCPs as me. LOL! And what on earth was she trying to gain by going to her priest!?

I'm wondering about the Private Eye guy too. I wonder where his loyalty lies. Maybe with the person with the deepest pockets? I just knew when she was talking and they were showing the yellow pages that it would be him.

Tom supposedly has some big secret, I wonder if it has something to do with Annabelle? He doesn't usually stand up to Lynette (does he?) so maybe Annabelle is very important to him.

I definitely think John is the father . Wouldn't be good TV if Carlos is the papa. (I did notice that she didn't pay for the pregnancy test).

Wonder who blew up Susan's kitchen?

The interactions between Gabby and the priest are hilarious!!
