Bree is packing for the trip to see Danielle and trying desperately to figure out how to unhook that new fangled DVD contraption so she can take it to her daughter. The phone rings and it's the doctor with good news. Danielle and the baby are going to be fine, although she's still going to be a bitch.

"I would love to receive home delivery of the Sunday New York Times, but my wife is in the middle of a fake pregnancy and I'm going through a sympathy fake pregnancy. I have too much on my plate right now. Call back in a month."

Tom and Lynette come home to confront her mother for drugging her and using one of the pink spotted kids as a drug mule. Stella says that she's not sorry for what she did since getting her daughter stoned and seeing her eat and laugh was the HIGHlight of her trip. Lynette tells her mom that she grew up on her own since her mom was always drunk or high and doesn't want to raise her own hellish children that way. Stella was never around, nor does she remember what color dress Lynette wore to the Junior prom or what character she played in the high school play. Stella informs her that she does remember that Lynette played Yenta in Fiddler on the Roof, and no amount of drugs or alcohol will make her forget how bad it was.

Susan comes to Bree's with a peace offering of cake, that I presume she will stare at and then make herself vomit in case any food particles entered through her eyes. Bree confesses that she hasn't been completely honest with Susan, saying that there's something wrong with the baby. Instead of telling the whole truth that the baby is a strap on weighted ball of sand, she says that there have been complications. Susan and Bree bond over their late in life pregnancies and contemplate how dead they'll be when their kids are old enough for college. Or kindergarten.

Katherine is preparing the forbidden room for her aunt since she just received word that she's well enough to come home from the hospital. Adam asks if she thinks it's wise to let her aunt stay in that room. Katherine says that perhaps calling the room "The forbidden room" was too tempting for her daughter, so she plans to keep it open to remove the mystery. When Adam leaves, Katherine is tidying up and pulls back the area rug to reveal a large gash in the hard wood floor. She runs her fingers across it and begins sobbing uncontrollably, obviously because that will bring the property value down. Mary Alice's disembodied voice comes on to tell us that everyone likes to play games, until someone gets hurt. It's all fun and games until someone shoots them self in the head.

Wow, that's the ugliest gash since Susan's.

What did you think? Will the gang see the Ikea tag sticking out of the pillow under Bree's dress? How long until Susan loses this baby? We all know it's gonna happen. What is up with that forbidden room? Who will play Katherine's aunt? Please let it be another designing woman. Are you as excited about the gay couple next week as I am?

"Transexual! Bleach blond! Elongated fully engorged 7 inch clitoris! Manish! Knots Landing! Size 15 shoes!"

Oh Fozzie! You really kill me sometimes... no, really... I damn near choked on my sandwich when I read that one.

TVCheese:

Hysterical. Absolutely freaking hysterical.

You ripping on Susan so badly had me covering my mouth many times to stifle my laughter.

Excellent job!!!!!

lloyd dobbler:

Fozziebare!!! Great recap!!

I literally, lit-uh-rah-lee was laughing my a** off with all the making fun of susan, how old she is,how skinny she is etc. And the tranny,elongated clitoris edie comments ...AWESOME!!! Although i tried that link(spanktank)and it didnt work?!?! You are a gem Foz and i love your recaps!!


Hello sunday new york times, CLASSIC!

Donna Martin Graduates!:

Okay, I missed the previous week's episode (stupid tivo refused to change channels) -- BUT --didn't KimberBree overhear/witness Dana Delaney slapping her daughter while she was secretly snooping around?

Hence, didn't snotty Gabi spill the beans on KimberBree?!

Please clarify.

fire@will:

I've read your first paragraph and already feel compelled to remark how brilliant I think it (and therefor you) is (are)!

fire@will:

Finished. May have to sue, though. Laughed so hard, burst my appendage...

best... recap... ever...

fozziebare13:

Hey everybody, thanks for the comments!

And DM graduates, yes, Bree was hiding around the corner when she was looking for Katherine's Lemon Meringue Pie recipe. She saw (more like heard) what happened and told her gal pals so Gaby ratted her out.

clichemonster:

"Chicas man. Can't vida con 'em, can't vida no con 'em."

That's because they'll make you take your coat off and go dancing in the rain. Everybody knows THAT.

Kudos again, mi amigo.

juddfan:

Sweet bliss of life, totally awesome recap!!! I'm never gonna get any work done with all this awesomeness on the 'gasm. Seems I missed this episode (I'm with you DMG--Tivo blows!!!) but I'm sure this was a better way to take it in anyway--That Lynette, not so awesome anymore, Miss SayNo part 2--does she not know it's legal under her circumstances . . . . Harrrummmmphhhh!!!

blahblah:

"Will act for food."

Or "Will take off shirt for food" is more like it, since that's what he thinks "acting" is. Wow, it took me awhile to figure out the guy with the gay banks is Jesse.

"Lynette tells her mom that she grew up on her own since her mom was always drunk or high and doesn't want to raise her own hellish children that way."

Since when is Lynette off the good stuff? Season 1 Lynette was popping pills like there's no tomorrow to drown out her stay-at-home-mom life. How soon bad parents forget...Denial, like addiction, must be an inherited gene in the Lynette family.

blahblah:

Oops, I meant to write "gay BANGS"...

blahblah:

Donna Martin Graduates (90210 reference?) and Fozzie:

How does Gabby still have friends? She's always going against the girl code, damn her. Annnyyway, Bree can just say she saw/heard The Slap through the window on her way to ask for another recipe. Then again, everyone's a bad liar on this show so I doubt Bree will say something simple (read: believable) like that. She'll probably say that she overheard The Slap while working on Katherine's underground sewage pipes.
