    Sigo creyendo que Bree es de los mejores personajes, y de los que mejor se desenvuelven en la trama, la forma en que logr evitar que Andrew se mudara y que adems se quedara sin su platica fue genial. Lynette tiene que manejar un pequeo problema con su hijo, pero esto es apenas el inicio, al fin y al cabo tiene 3 hijos varones. Gabrielle se da cuenta de lo importante y dificil que es ser madre, pero creo que empezara a estar a la altura de la situacion. Susan sigue siendo demasiado ingenua, y entra en escena por primera vez Orson, un persona que nos dar mucho de que hablar.moreless

    Well, I'm not saying that Desperate Housewives is a bad show, but I think everybody noticed that several episodes of Season 2 were really "Painful to watch."

    This episode was OK, but definitely not as the ones in Season 1. I actually laughed at those episodes. Well, sure, there were some funny scenes in this episode. Like the one when Susan tries to kick Karl from house and then she tells him everything, like "Our marriage sucked, it was really, really bad..." and then she turns to Julie and tells her :"Except you honey, you're my rock!"

    And Bree was also good in this episode.

    Well, just hope the season 3 will not be less good as this one was.moreless

    the courtroom drama with bree and her parents was crazy, then andrew ( the little devil) palying the grandson card, whao is there no way of stopping that greedy kid? poor justine being thrown over for a trust fund. but bree never disappoints, i love the way she brings down andrews gay property was hillarious oh my goodness it was a wonderful episode. really karl should get over it already with the pretend obessesion with susan for crying out, and she's lapping it upp like feather brain seriously how many times will sometime happen to you before you do something about it. gabby's just gabby.someone should martha huber's sister already, she should pull the trigger and kill paul young instead of messing with his floor and house.moreless

    Iloved this episode cause it was so true.My younger brother is seven and will ask or the same questions that parker asked and it makes me think why it is such a difficult subject to talk bout and that.It also funny the crazy ideas that parents think of it makes me laugh.And Bree thing was so heart breaking she is finally thinking that she should give up and do the mother thing keep fighting but should she !
    I loved the Gabby part where she felt really bad about leaving Lilly alone it was sweet and really brought her out of we all thought was a cold hearted Gabby i loved her caracter now more than ever .And the fact she is fighting for Lily!!Keep it up Eva !!moreless

    • The name of Parker's classmate, Cindy Lou Peeples, is the same one used by Dorothy Zbornak when the girls crash a high school reunion in The Golden Girls episode 'Home Again, Rose.' Edit
    • Goof: After Karl and Susan sleep together, Edie calls to speak to Karl and Susan asks, "how does she know you're here". His car is parked right outside of her house and Edie only lives 3 houses away... Edit
    • Even though baby Lily was just born last night (last episode), she seems to have aged three months by the size of the baby in the court room. It is noticable by the fact that not only was the baby much larger, but she also no longer had newborn qualities and was holding her head up very well. Edit
