Susan/Ian/Daria/Graham/MIke - I actually liked this plot a bit more than usual. Ian's dad being a crossdresser and his mum being privy was pretty funny but when it comes to Susan and Ian this episode set up the neccessary divide between them. Susan is reluctant to marry otherwise she wouldn't been cagey around the pre-nup and Ian clearly hates her helping Mike in anyway possible. Also can we meet Ian's big gay brother.

Carlos/Edie/Travers - Edie using her kid as sex bait is tasteless so once again Carlos is justified in taking the moral highground but he might want to remember that he isn't whiter than white himself. Edie's stripping felt like that Harper/Joe scene in Angels In America and despite some naff dialogue, I think Nicolette Sheridan delivered it well enough and I actually like the idea of Edie and Carlos having a relationship. If Gabby can have several, why can't Carlos?

Gabrielle/Samantha/Victor - Ugh, the dress thing would play a big roloe with this plot obviously. Gabby and Edie coming back from shopping at the beginning was surreal but nice. Gabby fawning over the dress was alright but hardly riveting. The incident with Samantha in the bathroom felt a little contrived but could've been worse and Victor's attitude towards women and materialism makes him a perfect match for Gabby in every way. I will gladly take Victor over Zach any day of the week.

Lynette/Tom - Yet again I side with Tom and yet again, I knew that him and Lynette working together would be a bad idea. Lynette needs to get a grip. Fighting over uniforms seem a little pathetic and how amazing that Tom putting his back out would be the thing that would get Lynette to put her pettiness aside and wear the damn uniform.

Andrew - With all his family gone, I wish he was given something interesting to do and fast. Him being a co-operative Scavo employee doesn't make for compelling television.

Rating: 6/10.

Lynette: “You speaking as my husband or my boss?”
Tom: “Definitely as your boss”.

Ian: “I’m not like my father”
Susan: “Trust me he’s not”.

Victor: “It looks like it cost a bundle”
Gabrielle: “Trust me it was a steal”.

Lynette (to Tom): “If you leave me with a mortgage and a restaurant and five kids I swear I will track you in the deepest pits of hell and make you pay. Do you hear me?”

Edie (to Carlos): “I might not be the woman you thought under that but I’m real and I’m here and I’m asking for a chance”.

I don't remember about Ian's brother either - must have missed it!
This was a good episode, but I think something really dramatic should happen at the Pizzeria just to spice things up a little!

A great epi. I liked seeing that side of Edie. I really want Susan to get back with Mike- and his parents! arrrggghhh I'm kinda offended because American TV always portrays the English in that way, though Susan was funny I thought. Gabrielle made me laugh too when she stole the clothes lol.

wait! I don't mean offended- just annoyed by some of the things they say like 'so one puts the meat on the burning coals. How wonderfully primitive' just stuff like that. It's not really very real.

On many boards Lynette has been called on being petty and a control freak over her refusal to wear the orange t shirt. I don't see it that way at all because I don't see where Tom comes off having the right to order her around like that. Have you ever heard of a business where two people invest their money together and one co owner can order the other around on issues of uniforms?

Seriously, though-after caving and allowing the resturaunt to open in the first place why wasn't it Lynette who deserved the little victory? It just seems to me she's given so much more than he has.
