    This episode was so amazing. It is a series classic. It was an excellent return and a great storyline. Bree falls off a ladder when she tries to get what she thinks is Monique's teeth. It was just a bag of marbles. Orson falls from the roof of the hospital after he gets into a fight with Mike. It was so dramatic. Ian proposes to Susan. The setting could have been better, as Susan explains, so he waits. It was yet another great episode. Marc Cherry is very creative and talented. This episode is yet another great installment to this amazing series.moreless

    This is the best episode since Bang, I was glued to the screen, (I know it sounds cliche but, hey I was). A lot of secrets were revealed but I do want to know what Orson told Bree. Anyway, Gloria locks Alma in her attic, Mike sees a hypnotherapist and uncovers some evidence that proves he didnt kill Monique, Bree falls off a ladder after being tricked into retrieving Monique's teeth, which funnily enough turns out to be a bag of marbles (now I know someone falling off a ladder isn't funny but come on), Susan gatecrashes Jane's funeral by revealing to one of the guests that she is Ian's other woman leading to him proposing. Andrew threatens Orson about his part in Monique's death. Mike finds out Orson was at the house on the night of Monique's death and confronts him on the hospital roof where Bree is. They fight and Mike accidentally pushes Orson off the roof...To be Continued.

    Brilliant cliffhanger.moreless

    Two months after his accident Mike starts to remember things about the night Monique was killed but not exactly who killed her. Only later he learns who could have been the murderer while Bree learns the whole truth and mysteriously falls off a ladder. Susan attends Jane's funeral and gets introduced as Ian's new girlfriend. In the meantime, Gabrielle meets an attractive man who is Zack's employee and she wants to spend her 30th birthday with him. But the evening takes an interesting turn. Finally, Lynette doesn't want to be bossed around by her husband who says that she's the boss at home and he's the boss at work.

    This episode was again very good, but a little less exciting than the last one. We finally get to see what happened the night Monique Pollier got killed, but we don't get to see the whole truth. They way Gabrielle has to struggle with Zack is just funny and I can't wait to see what happens. My favourite storyline was this time the Bree and Orson story-line because the mystery is about to get solved. I really learned to hate Orsons mother but she's a character I like to see.

    Can't wait for the second part (of course Orson's not going to die although he's pushed off the roof, that would be lame). Hope the next episode finally solves the mystery.moreless

    Great episode! Zach continues to try and get Gabrielle. Wow she is 31! She doesn't look that old. It was great when Zach sends that thing to that guy saying she is Zach's. Then he later calls him telling him what to say or he is fired. That was just brillent! Ian proposes to Susan. Yay! Orson makes Alma mad. Bree falls from the latter. Andrew blames Orson for her fall. At the end Mike is fighting with Orson when he gets pushed over the edge. Next episode is awesome! We all know Orson will still be alive which is good!moreless

    I have like most of this series so far but i was a little disapointed by this episode. I felt that it focused to much on the whole Bree Orson story which is intresting but i cannot stand his mother. Also the Tom and Lynette story has also run its course i don't care about a silly little resturunt. Either this show is runing out of ideas fast or they are holding back the good stories for later episodes or another seaosn. I don't want seaosn 2 to turn back to the old boring ways of season 2. I thought though that Susan's and Ian's proposal was nice. I hope the next episode is better, but this one wasn't too bad.moreless
