Last night’s episode of “Desperate Housewives,” was pretty good, but it was really the calm before the storm. I’m sure everyone is on pins and needles for next week’s tornado episode!

This week Bree continued to enjoy the new baby, with both Orson being pushed out of her “family bed” and Andrew feeling forced out of the house and family. Bree kept going on and on about how the three of them were so happy, and how this was her chance to correct all the mistakes she made before. Andrew later left, saying it was time he went. He moved into a dumpy apartment, Bree came to visit and they had a great talk. Andrew had changed from the brat he was, he just didn’t think she had noticed. He’d also forgiven her for dumping him by the side of the road, which he also didn’t know if she noticed either. Great scenes between both, but I hope this means Andrew isn’t going to be written out in the near future.

Lynette spent this episode trying to find where her mother had run off to. She ended up getting in touch with her old step-father Glen, who Stella had called for money. Glen was the one stable parent Lynette felt she had and thought her mom ruined that marriage. As it turned out, Glen was gay and that is why the marriage crumbled, and Stella was a ashamed and let Lynette basically blame her instead of telling her the truth. Great scenes with them working their relationship out as well, and Stella moved in with Glen. However given they cast Richard Chamberlain as Glen, this one was no shock and could be seen from a mile away.

The ever spiteful Edie turned Gabby into the police for possibly killing her husband Victor, who turned up missing from his boat. I loath Edie at this point and don’t think I’ll get over it anytime soon. Fortunately, but unfortunately, Victor was found alive. He pretended like he had amnesia, to keep Gabby out of jail, but he remembers everything. This can’t be good for Gabby or Carlos! Victor is coming for them so it seems. I just hope Edie will get what is coming to her soon enough.

Mike remains an addict, sneaking around and taking pills on the sly. He managed to use both Adam and Orson to score his drugs this week. When his old dealer showed up to get money, Susan thought he was a good catch and tried hooking him up with Julie. Mike had to spill the truth, this was his dealer. He of course lied and said he owed him money for those pills she found, he hadn’t bought anymore. Susan however learned he was lying, and he had got a bottle prescribed by Orson. I’m really loathing this storyline! As one person commented, when did they become so poor? Mike keeps talking about how it’s so expensive living here, and with Susan, but he had his own house before. Also Susan managed to survive on her own without being down and out, even when her publisher ripped her off. This storyline isn’t making too much sense to me. I think Mike is simply using the money and having to work as an excuse to himself for why he needs the pills.

Finally some odd woman showed up to see Adam. All we know is he blames her for ruining his life and career back in Chicago. He told her to leave, but she hung around. Hmmmm, what’s going on here? Does she know anything about Dylan, or is this a separate secret?
