This episode was so good, in my opinion. I enjoyed watching every minute of this episode. There were so many storylines in this episode. Bree's absence is explained as she will be visiting her parents, and then will go on her honeymoon with Orson. Mike and Ian become even more of enemies. Austin finally gets back together with Julie, just after he gets Danielle pregnant, and Austin leaves Wisteria Lane. That moment between Susan and Mike in the jewelers was so romantic. The Lynette storyline in this episode was hilarious. It was so funny when she was waiting outside in the cold. Gabrielle met another love interest, a man about twenty years older than her, who is running for mayor. This episode was another great installment. It is perfect, just like every other episode.
Great episode! Edie gets an unexpected visit from her son. An unexpected pregnancy causes complications. Victor Lang (guest star John Slattery), a man in his 40s running for mayor of Fairview, introduces himself for Gabrielle. The deceased Rex Van De Kamp (special guest star Steven Culp) narrates. Danielle is pregnany was just a shock and such a surprise!! Very good writing it this episode.

My Husband, The Pig
Edie gets an unexpected visit from her son. An unexpected pregnancy causes complications. Victor Lang (guest star John Slattery), a man in his 40s running for mayor of Fairview, introduces himself for Gabrielle. The deceased Rex Van De Kamp (special guest star Steven Culp)narrates. Julie is at the car wash and Austen gets into car. He is sad because she didn’t return any one of his phone calls. He gives her a letter and he just wants her to read it and if she doesn’t forgive him he won’t bother her anymore. She tells him that she will read if he gets out of the car right now. It is waxing time but he gets out anyway.
Andrew wants to go to the bathroom but Danielle is still there. He tells her that he needs to be at work in ten minutes and he needs to brush his teeth. She opens the door and she is crying because she is pregnant. Danielle and Austen talk about the baby. Austen freaks out and tells Danielle about the clinic but she wants him to marry her. He tells her that he can’t stand her and Danielle needs to throw up again and goes to the bathroom. At that moment Julie walks in and tells Austen that she forgives him. She hears someone puking at the bathroom and he tells her that Edie had too much of alcohol. Orson is about to join Bree and Andrew tells him about Danielle. Orson, Andrew, Danielle and Austen all got together to discuss the problem. They will not marry each other, Danielle will join Orson and Bree on their honeymoon and she will tell her friends that she decided to study abroad and once the baby is born, the baby will be adopted by a suitable family and she will come home and return to everything the way it was. Orson then tells Austen to leave and not to tell anybody why, not even her aunt. Austen doesn’t want to leave because of Julie but Andrew tells him that he will hurt her even more. He tells him to leave and forget about everything. Austen comes and tells Julie that he is going to leave a town for a while and he doesn’t know when he is gonna be back. He tells her that he has some family problems and that she is the only girl who gave him a second chance and that means so much to him. Julie kisses him and he tells her one last good bye.
Although there were constant mistakes made about Ian's "Britishisms" (Being British I wanted to scream) this episode had some good moments as always, and Rex narrating for a change was interesting. hide show
First of all, Ian's accent has always annoyed me, seeing as how not even many Londoners speak like that and the majority of the country are not London anyway. Also I wanted to shout at the TV when they had him calling Jacks "Naves" and all the Americans being all "We call them Jacks!" because around 98% of Britain also call them Jacks. And I'm not even mentioning the fact he has a butler!
Apart from that (And I hope to God, Ian goes soon) this episode made me smile a few times. It also made me sad, as Rex was describing the men's misfortunes, e.g. "I'll never hold her in my arms again" etc... A good episode all round, Britishisms aside, but I hope that before long, the series is back to a more funny and upbeat storyline. I expect though, that this is because of the end to the Monique storyline.
Rex Van De Kamp narrates a solid post-February sweeps episode. hide show
Rex Van De Kamp narrated this episode, and it was a solid, good episode, considering the February sweeps episode two weeks before with the conclusion of the mystery. In any case, the Mike and Ian poker game was exciting, but it reminded me too much of the Bree and Betty Applewhite poker game last season. I did like the symbolism though. I know that I had thought in the past that the show needs to return to simple, everyday housewife hilarities, but I don't think the show's turning in that direction. Plus, it just isn't the same without Marcia Cross. Despite all of this, I still did enjoy this week's episode and am excited to see what's to come.
