Thank you. So you think it should be dusted for prints?
- Yes. And I'll make sure it gets done. - Great.

Bye.

Boys, stop it! Go to bed!

- We're not tired! - Well, at least go upstairs.

- We want to play! - Look!

Gimme!

Go! Go!

[boys shout]

So why weren't you sitting with Mike? I thought you two were an item.

I sort of thought so too. Getting a lot of mixed signals.

I'll tell you who wasn't giving mixed signals. Sexy Officer Thompson.

- He stared at you all night. - You noticed that?

Honey, trust me, when they're not staring at me, I notice.

I appreciate you guys staying and helping.

Oh, please. I would have hosted it myself

but there's camping equipment everywhere.

It's nice of you.

And there's something else nice that I'd like you to do.

Your kids both went to Barcliff Academy, didn't they?

We need you to recommend Porter and Preston. We can't get an interview.

You want me to recommend the twins?

Yes. You can tell them how beautifully behaved the boys are.

- So you want me to lie? - Yeah. I thought that was understood.

I'm very well respected at Barcliff,

and my word won't be good there any more.

Yes, but by the time they realize their mistake, we'll be in.

You're not having any more kids. What do you care?

I had hoped some day to get my grandchildren into Barcliff.

But I suppose that doesn't matter to you, does it?

It really doesn't.

[Zach] We've got to get rid of it.

- [Paul] I said leave it alone! - No! You can't stop me!

- Paul and Zach are fighting again. - The second time this week.

They never fought when Mary Alice was alive.

It's a shame. They used to be such a happy family.

Just because you didn't hear them fighting, doesn't mean they were happy.

The next day, as residents began to patrol Wisteria Lane

in the hopes of foiling potential burglars,

Gabrielle was about to experience a home invasion of her own.

Mama Solis! What are you doing here?

I came to visit my son and daughter-in-law. What does it look like?

Does Carlos know you're coming?

No. He likes to be surprised.

Now come.

Gabrielle. Come.

Family should always hug...

[whispering] ..regardless of how they feel about each other.

Wow. She's a beauty. 30-footer?

32.

Sweet. I sail. I've got a Flying Scott.

We have several yachting enthusiasts here.

- I could introduce them to you... - That sounds great.

...if we decide to enroll your children.

To be honest, Mr. and Mrs. Scavo,

your children's educational background

is a bit more common than we would prefer.

But Mrs. Van De Kamp said they were identical twins?

Yes. You can't tell them apart. They're like book ends.

We do strive for diversity at Barcliff.

ldentical twins could be interesting.

The boys are fascinating. They even have their own twin secret language.

- Yeah, it's pretty scary. - Not so much scary as highly developed.

Yeah, they bark and growl at each other.

Tom, Mr. Lentz was trying to say something. Go ahead, Mr. Lentz.

I'd love to meet these twins of yours. I tell you what.

I'm going to put them on our''must-meet list''.

- Terrific! - Thank you so much.

- What is a''must-meet list''? - We bring them in for observation.

Observation?

Mm. To see how they play with the other children, how they respond to authority,

that sort of thing.

- Great. - That sounds wondertul.

- Hey. - Hi!
