3x05 Nice She Ain't

Carlos would have been better off keeping quiet, he shouldn’t have commented that Gaby wouldn’t be able to “pull the trigger” or anything like that, because her intention is to hurt him, to destroy his world. And she did, right? I think it was an exaggeration of her asking him to bring her breakfast, signaling that they could at least try to live in harmony, just to make him see her in bed with another man. In fact, I don’t really like this effort to hurt each other thing, because they’ve both done that a lot. Gabrielle destroyed Carlos when she cheated on him with John and the story came out, she spent a long time going to visit him in jail trying to convince him to forgive her. He also hurt her when he decided to cheat on her with the surrogate and house maid. Honestly, I think they are on the same level. Now with this “turnaround”, everything tends to get even worse.

BTW: you can’t help but laugh at the situations, at least. Gaby rocking the bed and moaning loudly was the culmination of this arc, even more so when Carlos walked into the room and asked her for the guy’s car keys so he could leave.

I hate this Edie/Susan plot. I understand that the nurse who is treating Mike is new to the service, she started a few days ago... But the hospital is not made up of just one person. It’s impossible for anyone in that ward to recognize the woman who spent six months visiting Mike every day. Edie has been showing up for a few days and is seen as his girlfriend? Also, I think every time I watch the show, the more I get angry at Edie. She is cruel. It’s okay to have disagreements with Susan, but who does she think she is to simply decide that Mike’s image of her should be erased? It is inhumane to purposely erase the memories he is already having trouble recovering. Mike was NEVER hers. Mike NEVER showed the slightest interest in her. Edie is the one who wanted his attention, but he’s always been flirting with Susan. “Did you ever stop to think that maybe he and I should be together?”, I die at Susan’s face before answering this. And Edie is just crazy to think something like that. How can they be fated to be together if she’s lying and manipulating someone with a mental disability?

As for Mike: my anger at him increases as well. I didn’t want to feel that, since he has this memory problem and stuff. But it’s impossible because he’s being manipulated and he’s allowing it without asking questions. He has no memories of Susan, right, so why not get to know her? It’s very irritating to see him rolling his eyes, acting disinterested in all her efforts to help him. Oh Mike, bite me!

I love Tom’s dream job! I love its simplicity and I really hope it works out. I think it’s beautiful to see him committed and excited to make things work. About Lynette, I also understand a lot about her being afraid. Because his intention is to open a pizzeria for her to work with him and because of the size of the family, for the investment that will be made, they cannot fail! She has to think about the situation as a whole. 90% chance is a lot. Of course he may be among the 10% that are successful, but I understand her fear. Sincerely? I think even if Nora hadn’t given that push, Lynette would have ended up asking these questions, because that’s who she is.

Nora, on the other hand, is now no longer the unbearable funny, to become the unbearable one who deserves to die for trying to get in the middle of one of the biggest and best couples of all time. “I’m working on it”. How absurd, my God! But Tom would never do something like that, even if she tried hard to create a break between them, he wouldn’t fall into her arms. I am sure. Although this attempt to show him her full support when he doesn’t have it in his own house is a very calculating thing to do.

Bree as always, a lady. Her delicacy going to the motel to catch Danielle and the professor together. And then the little scheme she put together to make him give up on being with her daughter!! Danielle is pretty vindictive too, I was shocked by the things she did because she got dumped. Andrew was priceless with those statements. “She’s trying to kill herself, but she’s not trying so hard.” And what about that Orson outbreak in the waiting room? Looks like he’s seen suicide up close...

Speaking of which, the season’s mystery went a little further and Mike was definitely involved having some involvement with the woman found dead. “Monique”, interestingly, someone Orson knows and pretended never to have seen... Orson, the guy who ran over and tried to kill Mike. Intriguing.
