Episode 04 - The Thing That Counts is What's Inside (17/10/2010)

Gaby and Carlos finally meet their real daughter. Her name is Grace and she’s pretty much a pint-sized Gaby. Juanita also has lots of qualities resembling her real parents, Hector and Carmen Sanchez. Fortunately, the Sanchez family is quite lovely and Grace was obviously in good hands all these years. Carlos is impressed with Hector and Carmen and Gaby is thrilled when Grace appreciates the retail value of her designer purse.

"She once slept with a rodeo clown, but he's a senator now."

Carmen Sanchez is a little offended when Gaby shows up at her doorstep with a 14-hundred dollar purse she wants to give to her eight-year-old daughter. Carlos lets Gaby know that he wholeheartedly agrees with Carmen’s reaction. But that doesn’t stop Gaby from giving Grace an expensive necklace. It’ll be their little secret.

Va-Va-Va-Broom.com is coming to America! That means Susan’s days as an online lingerie-wearing housewife are numbered. Her dirty dusting was fine as long as it was only seen by folks overseas. Susan will miss the money, but can’t risk having her neighbors come across her online life during a Google search. Of course, nobody will need a computer to catch Susan’s sexy image on the giant billboard picture being plastered on the side of a building. Va-Va-Va…uh oh.

The only way the Susan can stop the billboards posters from popping up all over town is to cover the cost of all the printing that’s been done. It’s about $9,000 and will effectively wipe out all the money she made. Maxine says Susan can make the cash back with some private online interactions of a slightly racier nature. We’re not sure if Susan will take Maxine up on her offer, but we do know someone out there knows her dirty little secret after an unseen figure fishes a billboard poster out of the trash.

Lynette is pleasantly surprised to see how good Penny is with baby Paige. She takes full advantage of this by leaving the child with Penny while running errands, taking baths and jogging around the neighborhood. But Lynette stays away a little too long on a morning of a big math test. Penny has no choice but to take her baby sis to school with her. This get’s Lynette sent to the principal’s office.

"You bought an eight-year-old girl a 14-hundred dollar purse?"

Lynette learns that Penny has been taking care of the baby during the night so her mom can get some sleep. As sweet of a gesture as this is, Lynette lets Penny know that she doesn’t have to do that anymore. Taking care of a baby is a mom’s job. It’s also the job of the nanny Lynette orders Tom to hire.

Beth doesn’t understand why her new hubby Paul bought his old house. Apparently, he has plans to purchase a few more properties on the block. Paul tries to convince Mrs. McCluskey to give up her home. Was anyone else squirming during their thoroughly uncomfortable conversation? Anyway, Paul obviously has big plans for all of Wisteria Lane. But we still have no idea what they are.

When Renee discovers that Bree is a grandmother, she books a first class ticket for her daughter and grandson to come visit. What a great neighbor, right? Wrong. It’s all part of Renee’s evil scheme to sabotage Bree’s first date with Keith. The plan works to perfection. Now Bree plots her revenge on Renee, who makes her own dinner date with the handsome handyman.

"A voracious libido and unlimited funds. A deadly combination."

Lynette says Renee has a fear of little people. They give her the heebie-jeebies. Renee sees flashes of little folks scurrying around the restaurant where she and Keith dine. An innocent young boy causes a mini freak out and a friendly little man sends Renee climbing up a bamboo wall. Renee’s screams of horror cause us to scream with laughter. The scene also brings a smile to Bree’s face, as she set the whole thing up with the help of a friend from her church.

The next day, Renee confronts Bree, who decides she no longer wishes to fight for Keith’s affections. Aww, that’s no fun. Renee realizes that Bree really likes this guy. She promises to back off and encourages her neighbor to go for what she wants. Renee has another reason for throwing in the towel. She says, “Based on my dinner under the rainbow last night, I think I’d rather have you as a friend than an enemy.” Smart woman.
