Crime Doesn't Pay
In a gesture of friendship, Bree tells Lynette she'll help Tom secure a new job, but the best intentions will reach a tempestuous end and reveal Orson's shameful misdeeds. Gaby finds herself in a precarious position when Carlos' adulterous boss begins using her to cover for himself as he continues to cheat on his wife. Meanwhile, Edie digs into Dave's past after a chance encounter with an old acquaintance.

Discuss!

Promo:

A Housewife will kill !!!

I cannot wait.

**Melis** · 03-07-2009, 08:25 PM

That one line has me on the edge of my seat.

smoothaise · 03-07-2009, 08:26 PM

And unlike B&S, I have a feeling DH will actually kill someone.

My speculation... and this is a bit reaching...

Spoiler:

**Melis** · 03-07-2009, 08:32 PM

Haha! Yeah, I think DH is not afraid to kill characters.

Interesting guess. I have no idea.

Hell, look at the Tornado episode - 3 deaths! And even the Fire episode. And the Grocery store shooting too. I was a bit ticked B&S didn't take it as seriously. But, it also could've been promo issues with ABC. Sorry, they shouldn't have labeled the episode an event - aside from the 3 minutes of drama, it dragged IMO. And only because I didn't care for the plots... or Robert, for that matter. But, that's for another thread.

Looks like we'll get more movement with the Orson plot.

**Melis** · 03-08-2009, 09:52 AM

Lol! I agree with you there. It was just a big tease.

Should be a good ep.

-Katie- · 03-08-2009, 10:08 AM

Looks like it will be a good episode!

I am excited!

smoothaise · 03-08-2009, 04:39 PM

Looks like we might get more on the Bree Vs. Lynette front. I mean, I know they sorta squashed it... but the description tells me they'll revisit it.

Hmm, very interesting.

Lovin' this episode, so far

It's not only hilarious but well-written for all the principal characters.

Loved when Gaby said to Edie "Shut up, bitch!"

Priceless.

Wow, what a jackass move, Tom.

smoothaise · 03-08-2009, 07:08 PM

Ugh Tom

He redeemed himself at the end but just...

**Melis** · 03-08-2009, 07:13 PM

The death was kind of a letdown. I expected it to be one of the main housewives.

smoothaise · 03-08-2009, 07:15 PM

I thought it was funny she said "I just wanted him to stop talking"

Talk about dark...

I didn't think any of the present housewives had reason to murder. But, Orson on the other hand, had me worried.

It was almost unsettling with every scene he was in, because you didn't know how much he could take. Unlike Tom who just let it all out, basically. I didn't love the guy making fun of Orson's name and saying he's gay. Orson was just trying to be a good host, and he has lost so much respect. I kinda get the need to steal, but it's unfortunate. I hope BrOrson can get through this.
