I apologize again to everyone that these are repeat episodes but I promise only this and one more post will be repeats and then we’ll be back to the continuation of the series.  This past episode on DHW, it is filled with nothing but sneaky actions, confusion, competition, accusations and mysteries. 

To deal with his depression, a doctor prescribes Tom marijuana to help keep him happy.  Lynette is mad that her husband thinks the only way to make him more cheerful and happy is through the drug, so she exchanges the marijuana with oregano.  Tom still thinks he’s smoking marijuana but when Carlos is over, he smells it and tells him that it’s oregano.  He becomes angry with Lynette but she tells him all this time, he didn’t need the drug to be happy since he was just using oregano.

Again, we see Lynette trying to help her husband with his problems, as last week he found comfort in Rene, which made her very upset.  We see Lynette’s efforts in being a better wife to Tom and she is slowly, but surely making progress.

Gabby and Carlos sign papers at the hospital agreeing to not sue the hospital and that they are aware there is nothing the hospital can do to find their biological daughter.  Gabby becomes crazy over the idea of not ever seeing her own daughter so she convinces Bob to hire a private detective to find the family with their daughter without Carlos’s consent.  When Bob tells them that he found the family, Gabby is thrilled while Carlos is furious with Gabby going behind his back and threatens to divorce her if she keeps up the behavior.

Gabby cannot get the idea out of her head that she doesn’t have her biological daughter and that she will never have the opportunity to ever meet her daughter.  As much as she loves Juanita, she can’t get over that fact and is angry that Carlos will not back her up in her desire to meet her daughter.

Bree finds out that her handy worker Keith has a girlfriend and goes on a girl’s not out at a bar with Rene.  The women soon see that Keith is at the bar, alone, and Rene, as sneaky as she knows Bree’s feelings, approaches him and starts flirting with him.  She finds out that his girlfriend just dumped him and he ends up bringing Rene home, which makes Bree furious.  Bree decides to get competitive and breaks her sprinkler system and calls Keith over right away to fix it, and this becomes a slight war between the two women. 

Now we usually don’t see this side of Bree, the sneakiness and the competitiveness but its something different and intriguing to see.  They are both two older women going for a much younger man but as Rene has the looks and moves to reel Keith in, we will see what Bree now has to offer to take him away.

Susan is still doing her cleaning website but it takes a wrong turn when another woman copies Susan’s routine and is bringing her viewers down, hence less money.  So she acts out by going to the woman’s house and confronting her, which almost loses both the women their jobs.

Susan is trying so hard to keep their marriage alive by doing work she doesn’t even approve of nor can she tell anyone about it.  As the season progresses, we will see the decisions she makes as to this job.

The housewives invite Beth, Paul’s new wife, over for tea and try to find out as much as they can about him now.  With the poor things the women have to say about Paul, Beth asks around the neighborhood herself about her husband and learns he was the number one suspect for a murder and how the whole neighborhood despises him for it. 

Beth starts to question her intentions of staying with a man so hated on Wisteria Lane and if she should get herself out of the situation.
