Bree took the “leadership” on this crime issue. She wasn’t even the one who killed Alejandro, but everything is on her back. First this letter thing, now this unearthed body situation and her trying to figure out what exactly happened, and how to resolve it. I find it tense when she opens up to Ben and yet he says he can’t help her, he’s going to the police. You can feel her despair in that cry right after he leaves. Not only that, she still has to deal with Chuck, who has already started his investigations about Alejandro and even remembered that they crossed paths with him on the night of the progressive dinner. I’m disgusted by his super abusive approach, even more so when he throws in Bree’s face the personal relationship they had. Look, a man with a bruised ego is unbearable. It’s like Bree has an obligation to stay with him for the rest of her life... He’s a worm! Luckily Ben wasn’t intimidated. It’s only suspicious what he says to Bree, about having decided to cover up the body, and that he might “need her help” in the future. But we’ll see...
If before I felt empathy for Tom in this scene where he is alone waiting for Penny, now that empathy is gone for good. Another character going down the drain is him and I loved EVERYTHING Lynette said. Both for him and for Penny, really. She didn’t tell any lies. He did make his bed and must deal with consequences as he barely left the house and jumped into a relationship with someone else. A very serious relationship that seems to have been going on for a long time, since he is very committed and on top of that he takes Jane to Lynette’s every time he goes there. Pathetic, he wants to force this new love as if everything had happened naturally. Tom has had his bad moments throughout the series (and now I recognize them all), but he’s never gotten this forced and boring like this. Anyway, I also like the conversation Lynette has with Penny at the end, it’s really real and Tom, as unnecessary as he is being, is still a father and hasn’t let go of his kids, right? He tries to be there for them and all. I just wanted him to stop forcing Jane into everyone’s lives. Lynette crying always breaks me. Tom doesn’t deserve any of those tears.
I love this Gaby and Carlos plot with Bob and Lee. I laugh so hard at them trying to make Juanita and Celia look like super smart and well behaved girls – Celia using a doll as a fork, hiding a lollipop in her hair and sucking on it after it was thrown in the trash is the BEST! And what about Gaby paying for every girl’s line with money and candy during dinner? THAT FAMILY! What Juanita did was unnecessary, that message in the garage was ridiculous. But I felt sorry for her when she exposed her fear of Carlos “dying” and that everything is different at home. The girls are feeling the heavy aura. This is very complicated... Apart from this situation for Gaby and Carlos themselves, having to look for reliable, responsible people, to ensure that the girls receive good care in case they are arrested...
I get annoyed with Susan trying to please this teacher all the time. The guy is a bore, super arrogant, hates EVERYTHING. And she insists that she can do something good enough for him. I would have already told the guy to go to hell, he doesn’t evaluate people’s work, he likes to judge them based on what he sees, an often stereotyped view...
On the girls’ fight: I understand everyone’s side, but I think both Susan and Lynette could see that Bree and Gaby’s intentions were never bad. Susan is right to be frustrated at being “excluded”, because she was a part of it and is eating away at guilt. However the excuse for her was a viable one, since she’d walked away from everyone for the last two months, closed herself off completely, and finding out that someone else knew what they were doing and that they were blackmailing would only be more damaging to her. Same for Lynette, who’s always so sensible... I really wish she’d understood. The last thing that can’t happen right now is a break in their friendship and complicity.
Lastly, I will ALWAYS be frustrated with this “art work” that Susan does to vent her feelings. Did she really had to draw the fucking crime, man? And did she really have to show that to Andre? Couldn’t she at least have kept it to herself, left it very well hidden, if the intention was to “vent”? She wanted the worm’s approval and worse she got it. I will never settle for this ridiculous decision to expose what they did. Help me help you, Susan!
