Episode 06 - Excited and Scared (31/10/2010)
It’s Halloween! That means all kinds of tricks, treats, outrageous outfits and scary situations to make your neighbors nervous. Actually, that would describe just about any day on Wisteria Lane.
Susan fesses up to Mike about her short-lived career at Va-Va-Va-Broom.com. She also tells him Paul Young is trying to blackmail her so he can get his hands on their house. Mike wants to bash Paul’s head in with hammer. It’s a nice thought, but then the hammer would get all icky. Susan has another idea. She catches Paul in a minor lease violation which means he has 60 days to vacate the premises. Smooth, Susan. Very smooth.
"How much thought did you give MJ when you were dancing around in your underwear?"
Paul is frustrated because Beth won’t sleep with him. Hey, she won’t sleep with anyone. She’s a 30-year-old virgin! A therapist suggests they go on dates to develop some intimacy. So Paul takes Beth to a haunted house. But he’s only there to scare up a little gossip about one of the teachers in town. He asks one of the local moms if she knows what Mrs. Delfino has been doing during her after-school hours. The next day, Susan is fired.
With Susan out of work, Mike makes a call for top-paying job that would keep him in Alaska for three months. Yes, Paul’s plan to hurt Susan works but his attempt to illicit a little affection from Beth falls flat. He says he wants her gone by the end of the week.
Later, Susan grabs the big club MJ was using as part of his Halloween costume and looks to take some batting practice on Paul. She stops swinging when Beth comes down the stairs aiming a gun at her. When Susan leaves, Paul finally gets one of the things he wants—a little intimacy from his wife. And Susan gets the one thing she doesn’t want, a goodbye kiss from Mike who is off to Alaska.
Bree is shocked to see that Keith’s apartment is tastefully decorated and smells of potpourri. She was expecting a bachelor pad complete with empty pizza boxes, dirty underwear and a neon beer clock. Those clocks are pretty cool. The one thing she wasn’t expecting was Keith’s roommate, Mimi. We’re thinking she’s the one who bought the potpourri.
Mimi is very cute, but also very safe. She says Keith never stops talking about Bree so she has nothing to worry about. Well, maybe she has one thing to worry about when she notices a letter from the Department of Corrections amongst his mail. Renee lets Bree know that Keith is on probation for a bar fight he was in last year in which he was defending his girlfriend’s honor.
Renee hosts a big Halloween bash. Bree looks super sexy in her cheerleader outfit. That’s probably why a guy dressed as a football player hits on her. This gets Keith all riled up. He admits he has a problem with his temper and she tells him about her past drinking. Hey, everyone has baggage. Keith says Bree has just seen him at his worst. That’s fine. Bree assures him it’s nothing she can’t handle.
Lynette is worried because Allison has been having mood swings and memory issues. She tries to convince Tom there could be something wrong, but he refuses to see it. When Allison goes missing on Halloween night, Tom desperately combs the neighborhood looking for her. But it’s Lynette who finds Allison scared and confused on Gaby’s doorstep. Finally, Tom is able to see that his mom needs help. He make the difficult decision to send her to a nursing home.
Juanita thinks Grace stole her mom’s necklace, so she swipes it back. Gaby explains that she actually gave the heirloom to Grace as a gift. Juanita feels like an ignored little dog come Halloween night. Part of the reason is she dressed up like a dog to go trick or treating. But she also believes her mom is more interested in Grace, who is dressed to the hilt in a princess costume handmade by Gaby. This motivates Juanita to help Grace get out of her tiara by cutting off a chunk of her hair.
"Whoever left you handcuffed to the bed for three days...he has my respect."
Juanita is obviously upset by all of the attention Gaby is giving Grace. Carlos suggests they pull back a little. After all, they have to protect their daughter. Gaby reminds him that they are both their daughters. This could get very, very complicated.

Desperate Housewives is an American television comedy-drama series created by Marc Cherry, who also serves as show runner, and produced by ABC Studios and Cherry Productions. Executive producers, as of the fourth season, are Marc Cherry, Bob Daily, George W. Perkins, John Pardee and Joey Murphy, David Grossman, Larry Shaw and Sabrina Wind.
The setting of the show is the street of Wisteria Lane in the fictional American town of Fairview in the Eagle State. It follows the lives of a group of women, seen through the eyes of their dead neighbor. They work through domestic struggles and family life, while facing the secrets, crimes and mysteries hidden behind the doors of their—at the surface—beautiful and seemingly perfect suburban neighborhood.
The show features an ensemble cast, headed by Teri Hatcher as Susan Mayer, Felicity Huffman as Lynette Scavo, Marcia Cross as Bree Van de Kamp and Eva Longoria as Gabrielle Solis. Brenda Strong narrates the show as the deceased Mary Alice Young, appearing sporadically in flashbacks or dreams.
Since its premiere on ABC on October 3, 2004, the show has been well received by viewers and critics alike. The show is a multiple Emmy, Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild award winner, and in April 2007 it was reported to be the most popular show in its demographic worldwide, with an audience of approximately 120 million.
