Last night’s episode of “Desperate Housewives” seemed like another filler episode to me. It was amusing, but didn’t move the story forward at all until the very end.

The show mostly centered on Katherine and Lynette, both running for president of the home owners association. Katherine and the women wanted Lee and Bob’s noisy water fountain gone, while Lynette was pulled in as it was made clear her kid’s tree-house would be taken out too. This was her kids “cancer free” play haven, she wanted to protect it.

In the end, Katherine won, the tie breaker was Susan. Susan had promised Lynette her vote, but Katherine too. She wanted the fountain gone as the noise was interfering with Mike’s sleep. Susan explained to Lynette it was unfair of her to be put in this situation, she had to think of her husband over Lynette’s kids. Lynette understood. Katherine, after being reamed by Adam for the way she acted towards her neighbors, agreed that Lynette’s tree-house could stay. However when she went to get Lee and Bob to get rid of their fountain . . . uh oh! Bob had connections with a hospital in Chicago and they learned they fled Chicago because of something Adam did there, and threatened to tell everyone the truth if she didn’t leave their fountain alone.

So we have learned there seem to now be two secrets in this family, one with what happened to Dylan years ago, one that more recently happened with Adam in Chicago. Are the two connected though? I bet they are somehow.

The other story of this episode dealt with the return of John the Gardner. He is now married but bored with his wife and wanted to get back with Gabby, who is also married but cheating with Carlos! Gabby turned John down, and Carlos realized he had to forgive John as he was basically now doing what John once did with Gabby. John admitted to Carlos he really did love Gabby. Later a private eye hired by Eddie got her photos of Carlos and Gabby’s affair. Hmmm, what is she going to do with them?

Oh there was one other story, Bree found out Phylis sprung Danielle, who has come home to have the baby.

Next week is when Sweeps officially starts for “DH,” so it should pick up. The preview of the Halloween party look hilarious. I loved when Danielle showed up at the party in costume and said “We don’t kick people unless they are they are the servants” and Mrs Mcclusky said “I get it, you are your mother!”
