There has finally been a new episode this week after a month of repeats.

Last time we left off, Beth had signed over her kidney for Susan and then proceeded to shoot herself in her head.  With this horrific event, Paul tries to get in the way of Susan taking the kidney and Susan begins to think about it and declines the kidney as well.  Her friends and family are disappointed but cannot understand how she is feeling about the kidney, especially after talking to Paul Young of all people, a man who has had hate for her family.  In the end, the two talk and rethink things and Paul and Susan both agree for the kidney transplant. 

When Paul and Susan speak, he tells her she is undeserving of his wife’s kidney since Susan and the other women always left her out and never made efforts to befriend her.  Susan reflects on their past with Beth and realizes she has never made any efforts to befriend this woman so she thinks why should I take her kidney if I never gave her anything in return?  This is another act of maturity for Susan.  In the past, she was always the naïve one and since this accident, she has been maturing and seeing things from different point of views.

 Renee has been planning her annual Spring Fling party that always takes place the first Saturday of April and Gabby has agreed to help.  With the death of Beth Young, Gabby suggests canceling and Renee is adamant about still throwing the party.  The other neighbors refuse to go because of the poor heart on Renee’s part and Gabby ends up talking to Renee.  We learn that Renee’s mother had also committed suicide and she doesn’t believe in mourning if the person chose to take their life away and she believes in celebrating life.

We see another side of Renee here learning about her childhood.  Her mother had committed suicide when she was young and was never able to understand why at such a young age.  So that’s how she developed the belief of celebrating life at the time of death and not mourning because death opens her eyes almost about being alive and never knowing what will happen next.

Bree’s son Andrew returns and she learns from his partner, Alex that his alcoholism has been overwhelming lately and he ends up leaving Andrew.  Since alcoholism has a history in her family, Bree takes him to an AA meeting.  He expresses how he feels about his mother of how she tries to develop her kids to be the way she wants and walks out on her.  The two talk and she eventually gets him to open up and talk to her instead of a group of strangers.

With Bree’s son coming back with such a problem, she focuses all her attention on curing him.  She had talked to Beth the day before her suicide and she realized something was wrong but decided not to say anything since the women weren’t close friends with her.  Now that she can see a problem within Andrew, she knows she needs to act out and offer help before it is too late like with Beth, something she can never forgive herself for.

Because of the death of her daughter, Felicia (Beth’s mother, a woman out to get Paul because he strangled her sister Martha in season 1 for blackmailing his late wife Mary-Alice..confusing), has been released from prison.  This is now her chance to get her sworn revenge on Paul ever since he killed her sister.

Next episode, I hope to see that Susan’s surgery is a success and she can finally be out of the hospital and stress-free about her health.  Hopefully Bree’s son decides to move in to work on sobering up and working with Bree in order to do so.  And we will finally see how Felicia and Paul are going to interact now that she is out of jail and what will happen between the two.

Yet again we are left without another episode this past Sunday but this Sunday there for sure will be a new episode.  So I decided for this week I’ll just recap on the main characters so far this season and what I think will be in store for each of them in the future.

Gaby learned this season her daughter’s switch at the hospital and that Juanita isn’t her birth daughter.  After meeting with the family that has their real birth daughter, Gaby becomes very attached to her and gets hit hard when the family has to evacuate to Mexico.  Gaby was at a very low at this point, even buying a doll replica of her.  Carlos takes her to therapy and slowing she is starting to “forget” about Grace and is more focused on Juanita.  Gaby has overcome this obstacle in her life, very slowly but surely.  This shows how strong she truly can be, especially for whatever may happen to her or her family in the future.

Susan’s family has been struggling greatly with financial issues, resorting her to be on an erotic online web show.  She ends up quitting the job and Mike flies out to Alaska for a job for a few months.  After he is back, Susan is trampled on in a mob on Wisteria Lane, leaving her with an injured kidney, on dialysis and waiting on a kidney donor.  I think Susan will ultimately get her kidney but that something will go wrong in surgery leaving us all on the edges of our seats as to Susan’s fate and what will happen next.

Lynette has just had the newest Scavo child, Paige.  With her good friend from college, Rene, in the picture her family suffers family problems.  She finds out that Rene and Tom had been together over a weekend they were briefly broken up, her mother marries a grumpy man from the senior center, and her sons try to move out and live on their own.  Lynette’s family will further have their own problems as does every family but she will continue to stay strong in order to overcome it.  I think the incident with her brief stepfather’s death will come back to haunt the family after an autopsy proves an earlier death than one that they reported.

While Bree is just getting over her divorce, she starts to fall for the younger, handyman Keith.  The two form a relationship and Bree at first feels insecure about dating such a younger man but starts to build confidence off of it.  When an incident comes up where she learns that Keith has a son, she knows the right thing to do is to tell him about his son and risk not being with him anymore.  Keith proposes for the two of them to move to Florida to be closer to his son but Bree sadly declines and the two break up.  Bree is back at an ultimate low and needs something to bring her spirits up.  I think that the other housewives will fly her children and grandson in to visit her since she rarely gets to see them all.  Orson may also come back into her life again, as he did living with Bree and Keith briefly since he still had feelings for Bree.  So I think between her children and grandson flying in and Orson back into her life, she will regain her happiness yet again.

Rene is the new housewife on the lane, deciding to move onto Wisteria Lane after staying with college friend Lynette for a few weeks.  Because of her appeal, the women often find her sneaky and untrustworthy in the beginning.  But as Rene starts to notice the women’s’ feelings towards her, she progressively tries to change and be more mature like the women on the lane and everyone starts to respect her more.  I think that Rene will soon fall for a guy that doesn’t necessarily have the best looks or the most money and she will ultimately learn the true meaning of love, to love someone for who they are on the inside not the outside. 

So this coming Sunday there will for sure be a new episode and it’ll sure be an interesting one after the last episode, Searching.
