The Primetime Dish

So let’s get, what in my opinion, was the filler storyline in this episode out of the way first. The nonsense between Susan, Mike, Carl and his “child-bride.” Mike and Susan went to attend a Lamaze class and ran into Carl and his new wife there. Carl kept making digs at Susan about how great his new wife was. He basically made her feel like she had ended up with a booby-prize in Mike. During a later class when they were alone, she lashed out at him saying she got it. However they opened up, had a heart to heart, and Carl pointed out she had a great guy in Mike, and that he wasn’t a great husband. This storyline did nothing for me this week, which is why I felt it was a filler storyline.

Bree was conflicted over Orson and their marriage, admitting to Katherine after he suffered a bit and realized how wrong what he did was, she’s probably take him back. Unfortunately Edie already has her sites set on him! She let him sleep a drunken night on her couch rather than go back to an apartment complex he hates, and Bree took issue, asking her not to do it again. Bree pointed out she has a habit of going for the rest of their leftover men. Go Bree, it’s so true. That of course ticked Edie off and she let Orson not only stay, but started kissing and making plays for him. Find your own man for once Edie! It seems a spying Bree found out what she was up to. I think Bree’s going to make Edie pay. I don’t know if Orson is long for this show anymore either after all that’s gone down.

Gabby and Carlos took in a boarder named Ellie (Justine Bateman) and Gabby soon noticed men coming and going at all hours and paying her money. Convinced she was whoring it out in their spare room, Gabby got her friendly neighborhood gays to help her get hard evidence on her. She had them try and solicit her, which of course backfired. Gabby was forced to come clean that she thought Ellie was hooking. Ellie’s excuse? She was running a tattoo shop to pay for college art classes. Gabby bought the line hook line and sinker. Hello, could she have not come up with a better excuse than that? Of course we got a glimpse of what was in her dresser and what she’s really doing . . . selling drugs! Just what Mike needs, a dealer down the street from him. Hopefully Mike does not meet Ellie!

Lynette learned this week that Satan, I mean Kayla, was the one who convinced the twins to start the fire. She felt Kayla needed counseling, but Tom of course didn’t. I hope Tom wakes up and sees his daughter is in fact Rosemary’s Baby and soon, before someone ends up dead. When Lynette took her to counseling anyway, the demon blackmailed her and said she’d tell the police what the twins did. Lynette should have told her go ahead sweety, as their older sister who gave them the idea you’d go down too! But she didn’t, she caved and took her home. Kayla then got her revenge, convincing the twins she had safely jumped off a roof with an umbrella. When they tried, one of them broke his arm. She’s the devil I tell you, call an exorcist and quick!

Finally Katherine got suspicious of Dylan constantly going out to meet some boy. Wayne told Dylan to tell her mom, and Dylan did, not realizing Katherine had spied and already found out who she was seeing. Wayne showed up to see Katherine and wow was it intense. Katherine stood behind her counter kneading dough as Wayne told her how he had changed, he wasn’t the same man anymore. She revealed he used to punch her, choke her, hit her so hard he’d lick her blood off his knuckles. She said she had changed too, she wasn’t scared of him, though she wondered if she could still make him angry like she used to. I was honestly sitting there thinking she was going to pull a gun out and blow him away! She didn’t and Wayne quietly left, though you could see he was fuming. I guess she still gets to him. This isn’t going to end pretty at all, I see someone dead before this season’s over with! Speaking of dead, Katherine didn’t seem to shocked that he wasn’t dead. So who or what is burried in the backyard?
