And for reupholstering her own furniture.
Yes, Bree's many talents were known throughout the neighbourhood.

And everyone on Wisteria Lane thought of Bree as the perfect wife and mother.

Everyone, that is, except her own family.

Paul, Zachary.
Paul, Zachary.

Hello Mrs. Van De Kamp. Bree, you shouldn't have gone to all this trouble.

It was no trouble at all.

Now the basket with the red ribbon is filled with desserts for your guests.

But the one with the blue ribbon is just for you and Zachary.

It's got rolls, muffins, breakfast type things.

Thank you.

Well, the least I could do is make sure you boys had a decent meal to look forward to in the morning.

I know you're out of your minds with grief.

Yes, we are.

Of course, I will need the baskets back once you're done.

Of course.

Susan Mayer, who lives across the street

brought macaroni and cheese.

Her husband Carl always teased her about her macaroni,

saying it was the only thing she knew how to cook, and she rarely made it well.

It was too salty the night she and Carl moved into their new house.

It was too watery the night she found lipstick on Carl's shirt.

She burned it the night Carl told her he was leaving her for his secretary.

A year had passed since the divorce

Susan was starting to think how nice it would be to have a man in her life,

even one who would make fun of her cooking.

Mom, why would someone kill themselves?

Well, sometimes people are so unhappy

they think it's the only way they can solve their problems.

- But Mrs. Young always seemed happy.- Yeah.

sometimes people pretend to be one way on the outside

and they're totally different on the inside.

Oh you mean how Dad's girlfriend is always smiling and says nice things

but deep down you just know she's a bitch.

I don't like that word, Julie. But yeah, that's a great example.

Hey, what's going on?

Sorry I'm late.

- Hi Susan.- Hey.

So? What did Carl say when you confronted him?

You'll love this, he said it doesn't mean anything, it was just sex.

Oh yes, page one of the philanderer's handbook.

Yeah, and then he got this Zen look on his face, and he said, you know Susan,

most men live lives of quiet desperation.

- Please tell me you punched him. - No, I said, really?

And what do most women lead, lives of noisy fulfillment?

- Good for you. - I mean, of all people, did he have to bang his secretary?

I had that woman over for brunch.

It's like my grandmother always said, an erect penis doesn't have a conscience.

Even the limp ones aren't that ethical.

This is half the reason I joined the NRA.

Well, when Rex started going to those medical conferences,

I wanted at the back of his mind that he had a loving wife at home,

with a loaded Smith and Wesson.

Lynnie? Tom's always away on business. Do you ever worry he might..?

Oh, please, the man's gotten me pregnant three times in four years.

I wish he was having sex with someone else.

So Susan, is he going to stop seeing that woman?

I don't know.

I'm sorry you guys, I just...

I just don't know how I'm going to survive this.

Listen to me.

We all have moments of desperation.

But if we can face them head on,

that's how we find out just how strong we really are.

Susan.
Susan.

I was just saying Paul wants us to go over on Friday.

He needs us to go through Mary Alice's closet, and help pack up her things.

He says he can't face doing it by himself.

- Sure. That's fine. - Are you OK?

Yeah. I'm just so angry.

If Mary Alice was having problems, she should have come to us,

she should have let us help her.

What kind of problems could she have had? She was healthy,

had a great home, a nice family. Her life was?

our life.

No, if Mary Alice was having some sort of crisis, we'd have known.

She lives 50 feet away, for god's sakes.

Gabby, the woman killed herself. Something must've been going on.

- Oh, I wouldn't eat that if I were you. - Why?

I made it. Trust me.

Hey, hey, do you have a death wish?
