    Past couple of episodes have been somewhat of a let down. The entire Mama Solis death sequence was poorly handled, it was as if they let a 2nd grader come up with the death. Susan is starting to bug me as well, her constant whining is really starting to get on my nerves.


    Hopefully it'll get back to the way it used to be.

    Yes her constant clutzyness is getting annoying. The construction guy hit the nail on the head with her on the driveback before the flat tire.

    Quite honestly I hope never to see Marlee Matlin on the show again. It may have been a jump the shark moment with killing off Mama Solis how they did.

    It was so bad that Carlos ripped up his post nuptual agreement. Better to have let Gabrielle split now than be devasted later.

    A decent episode, but for me the show seems to be slipping a little.

    But did he actually rip up the pre-nup? Perhaps that was just a copy and he
    has the original hidden in a safety deposit box.

    I would hope so for his sake. :D. I loved the scene in the restaurant. You just knew Gabrielle would splurge on the gardener's credit card.

    A great episode last night. The season is sizzling again. Gabriel pregnant and not sure of the father. Lynette's hubby's old flames comes back to work in the firm. Susan's house mysteriously has a gas explosion. ;)

    That kid, Zach is frightening. He's as creepy, maybe more so than his father, Paul. Nice to see Richard Roundtree on TV again. Shaft is a bad muther!

    I think you're right, I hope it isn't Susan.

    Did anyone notice the name of Richard Roundtree's detective agency? One of the greatest inside jokes I've ever seen on TV.

    Wasn't it Hafts? I do get that RR was Shaft, but I don't recall exactly what his agency was called. Please tell.

    Um, take the last letter in Hafts, and put it at the beginning of the word. It'll come to you. :D :cool:

    Shut yo mouth!

    Could someone summarize what we know so far about the Alice mystery?
    I should have paid more attention to this story arc.

    Alice and Paul had a baby girl. Dana?
    Zach may have been kidnapped by "Alice" and Paul when he was a baby, perhaps after the couple lost their baby girl?
    After someone left Alice a note saying "I know what you did," she killed herself.

    Corrections and omissions?

    Dana can also be a boy's name (Dana Carvey, for example). Could've been Zach's name before he was kidnapped.

    It has already been disclosed on the show that Zach's birthname is Dana.

    Wasn't the girl who's bones were found in the trunk Dana? Isn't it the girl that Mike was searching for, remember the episode where the old guy told Mike that they found her remains in a trunk.

    As Captain Splarg said, Zach's birthname was most likely Dana....before Paul and Suicide Alice stole him.

    The chick in the trunk is the girl Mike is looking for, his ex girlfriend/friend/wife, and that dying guy's daughter.

    I believe Zach was under the impression that the trunk held the bones of his "sister" that he accidentally killed when he was younger. This ended up being a lie told to Zach by his parents which Zach figured out when the investigators told him they found an adult's woman's bones in the trunk.

    Most likely the woman in the trunk (Mike's ex) was an invesitgator sent to Zach's house to investigate and then promptly killed to cover up them stealing the baby. However, I guess she could have been Zach's real mom coming to claim him...that also might mean that Zach is Mike's son. :D

    I think this is it...because Sunday they said the woman was disturbed, and I'm 90% sure that either Mike or the dying guy had referenced the same thing.

    I have been watching the programme from the start and i think it is fantastic, it doesn't have many episodes left, just a few so everything is away to start coming together, so ill be sad to see the programme end. :(

    Good season ending episode.

    Curious to see what happens with the pharmacist. Will Bree be accused on trying to murder Rex.

    Carlos digs himself a deeper hole.

    Mike may be killed by his crazy son. Quite the tragedy.

    Tied up all of the unanswered questions regarding Mary Alice.

    A bit disappointing and predictable. DH really took a turn downwards towards the end of the season.
