I will loose all respect for Lynette if she cheats. Remember how clear she made it to Tom that cheating was an unforgiveable offense.

I'm thinking it might come to the point where they kiss and she realizes that was bad. I don't think she'll sleep with him--at least I hope not. I agree with you though.

There's a corner pizza joint around here that is known for its pizza AND risotto. We always buy a risotto for the table and a tray of pizza. They also have other food items, similar to what Lynette and her new boy-toy are creating... at similar prices.

I don't get why Tom is being such a jerk. Ooh, don't want to make too much money to keep the business afloat and support the family... just want to make pizza.

What I thought was funny was when Lynette said that a family of four, instead of sharing one $15 pizza, would all get risotto for $80. Uh, not my family Lynette. My kids aren't getting $20 entrees.

 

[MamaLema]

If McClutsky is in jail, does this mean someone new will move into the house?
I hope so. So far all the new neighbors have always been interesting

 

[Daisy Duck 5]

I think Mrs McClutsky just thinks that the kid squealed about the body. For all we know, she has unpaid parking tickets!!

Carlos is obviously upset about hearing Gaby's announcement on TV and will no doubt give his objections, but Gaby will find out all about him and Edie doing it all over town, and tell Carlos to get lost.
Eva Longoria was on The View confused3 ) and said she was getting married on the show as well in real life this July. So that she would have 2 weddings this year. I like Victor, but for some reason Gaby and Carlos really belong back together in my mind

Tom is being a real jerk regarding his restaurant. His way or the Highway. Glad Lynette is doing what she wants.

The producers did say that they were taping some of the final episodes from Marcia Cross' real home, so maybe they will somehow be in a couple more episodes this season.

We already saw the shows that Marcia Cross taped from her bed. Those were the ones where Bree was in the hospital and in bed at her house. I heard that Bree will be in the final two shows. The second last show Bree will be played by another actress. The final show Marcia Cross returns. I think she taped it after the babies were born.

My point, exactly. We buy one risotto to share and a pizza to share. Still and all, it's $35 instead of just $15 for one pizza.

Couple of things I noticed in tonight's episode. Mrs. McClusky was talking on a cordless phone during a power outage. And the camera in the elevator took some really clear photos considering there was no light and power. And ew, Carlos and Edie. Why couldn't they go to her house or a motel?

I'm sure someone has already responded, but the telephone cuold have had a backup battery and they were still undressed when the lights came back on, so it was possible to take the pictures clearly.

 

[gometros]

Mrs McClutsky comes home to a huge bad stink in her house. Turns out the woman is still laying in her hospital bed ....dreaming.[/B]

That wasn't Mrs. McCluskey who came home to the smell, but her friend and she is probably the one who turned Mrs. McCluskey in.

My cordless phones do not work when the power is out. I think the problem is that the base doesn't have power, the actual phone turns on, but can't get a signal from the base. We keep an old "cord phone" around just for when the power goes out.

I'm anxious to see what happens with Mrs. McCluskey. I'm ready for Susan to make a decision and move on. I really don't like Ian, he's sneaky and seems weak.

I agree with the others who have said that "messing around" in strangers' beds is GROSS. Did they have to do it in the child's car bed? But I guess that's Desperate Housewives, I usually see something in every episode that shocks me.

 

[ChristmasElf]

I looked fast and thought it was McClutsky. But if the old woman was dreaming while lying in the hospital, maybe NO ONE has smelled the odor of the body in the freezer.....yet.

 

[debknight]

The question is: if that is Mr. McCluskey, 'why' is he in the freezer??

 

[bubba's mom]

There are 2 "old, lady busybodies" on Wisteria Lane....Mrs. McClutskey is one and i can't remember the other's name...but they're friends. The friend is the one who went to Mrs. McC.'s house (she got the key from under the mat) and went inside....the panned OUT from the house and all we heard was "ewwww! what's that smell?". so, i her "quest to identify the smell", i'm guessing she called the police and it all unrolled from there......

again, awesome recap Elf! thank you!

 

[ChristmasElf]

Thanks!!

That's what I thought, too, and I think the other old lady is Ida.

 

[Tasha+Scott]

I think Ida did discover the actual body because you heard her scream a few seconds after entering the house. I am thinking she turned Mrs. McClutsky in. The thing is, I have a feeling the body is not as morbid as it seems. When she explained her reason for the body to Parker, he smiled and said he understood why now. I don't peg McClutsky as a homicidal maniac and I think it is going to be something rather simple. Still a little gross to me, but I'm sure it makes sense in her mind.

I wish Susan would just pick Mike and get it over with already. It's so obvious he's the one she will end up with and I personally don't like Ian. It's time to kick his butt to the curb already! Or heck, send Mike my way if she doesn't want him. Do you think my dh will mind sharing me with Mike?

I don't like Carlos with Edie. Edie is just too trampy for me. I wasn't at all surprised about her getting her freak on in a child's bed. Seems just like her to me. Carlos is just the flavor of the hour. She probably likes the whole "good girl in a commited relationship" image she is portraying while with him but I don't think it will last. I like the idea of Carlos and Gaby getting back together but I also like the new guy Gaby is seeing too...so far.

ETA: I seriously do not like the direction the whole Lynette, Tom, and Rick storyline is taking. I love that Lynette and Tom have a stable marriage and I can think of no possible benefit to the show by having Lynette cheat. I am hoping they will nix the very idea of that and it won't get to that point. I will be highly disappointed if they have her cheat.

 

[MrsKreamer]

I don't think Lynette is going to have anything more than an "emotioanl affair" with Rick. (Oh and every time I saw the scene of Lynette asking Rick why a 4 star chef would want to slum it at a pizza place, I kept thinking "because his series got cancelled"...he was in the short lived summer drama Windfall last year, and looks and acts exactly the same)

I too miss Bree, but hopes she takes as long as she needs with her twins!

The Susan Ian Mike story is starting to bore me...pick one already!

 

[RUDisney]

Who was with Travers when Edie and Carlos had their sleepover?

Or, am I not supposed to question that because it's DH?

Wasn't Carlos trying to befriend Travers? That ended fast one he and Edie started doing their horizontal dancing.

 

[disneyfav4ever]

I used to like Ian, but for the past couple of weeks he has gotten really annoying. I always thought Susan belonged with Mike though. And Gabrielle belongs with Carlos, even though I do like Victor.

And I also heard that Marcia Cross will be returning for the finale. I'm excited to see her again.

guessing they "forgot" to explain that....kinda like where Kayla has been all these weeks? (just saw her this past episode)
