Happppppy day-after Halloween, DH fans!!! (Not)Neighbor Peggy is behind on grading papers, so she chose the well-being of today’s childrens instead of backstabbing wives/husbands/ex-wives/ex-gardeners.
But that’s OK because Erin’s over here, and she’s got organic key-lime yogurt and is ready to watch.
Wanna watch with me? Catch me on Twitter here!!

9:02: Bree talks about her affair like she’s making a souffle.
9:02: I’ve got a funny feeling Karl’s story about “Irene” isn’t about his grandmother…..
9:03: Karl tells Bree he loves her. Erin says “Boooo.”
9:04: Oh, whattup haaaair, Gaby! Pretty and a half. OK, pretty and three quarters.
9:06: Is it bad that I’m extremely proud of Juanita for swearing?
9:07: Also, I like how they freeze-framed it, all “A Christmas Story”-style.
9:07: I knew the brooch thing was too good to be true.
9:08: Um, who’s the pretty boy with Tom?
9:09: T. Scav. Lynette’s hair. Drunk college boys. Best. Scene. EVvvvvvvverrr.
9:11: “What is this, Shaw Shank Elementary?” — Gaby, to Mrs. Peterson.
9:13: “….and the HORSE you rode in on!” — Gaby. Swearing. At the principal. I approve. Wholeheartedly.
9:14: “Don’t shoot, it’s just me!” — Katherine. Too soon?

9:15: “I’m sure you noticed that my behavior has gotten craazzee!” — Katherine. Self-awareness is the first step to recovery, right?
9:15: …………….too bad I DON’T WANT YOU TO RECOVER, KATHERINE!!
9:16: Oh, good. Susan rejected Katherine’s request to go to barbecues together. She’s single-handedly keeping Krazy Katherine crazy.
9:17: “Let’s give brunch a shot. Sorry, that was just a bad choice of words.” — Susan.
9:18: Libido. Fornicating. Morally bankrupt weasel. Bree wins at….you know….talking, and stuff.
9:18: Karl on one knee? Is this for real? Are we buying this? As I type, Erin answers: “Shuuuuut up.”
9:19: Karl shushing Bree is a good foreshadow into how delightful their marriage is going to be.
9:20: Oh, Angie’s mom is involved? Or that’s really not her mom…it’s her and Danny?
9:21: Erin’s upset that Katherine booped Angie’s nose. “They can’t do that, that’s ‘Superbad’s’!”
9:22: I love how we’re getting around this whole can’t-swear-on-network-tv thing. Blankety blank blank. “Fine with me, I blanked off earlier.”
9:28: Did Susan just inadvertently convince Bree to marry Karl?
9:29: Gaby seriously just told Lynette she was getting a little “rounder”….?? Who has friends like THAT?
9:29: “This is L. Scav, may I help you?”
9:30: Lynette at a college party. This is entire thing is making me cringe.
9:30: Also, is one named Neidemayer? As in…Animal House? Nice Easter egg, ABC!
9:30: “I hate them.” — Erin, to the frat boys.
9:33: Katherine’s attempts at Mike are just so hilarious at this point, right? We trust Mike, right?
9:35: Erin and I are both upset that we didn’t see the fall in the tub coming. We should’ve.
9:35: I’m kinda loving Susan in this episode……
9:40: I hate to condone the cheating, but I kinda support Tom on this one….
9:40: “Support” is the wrong word. More like “I don’t blame him”.
9:42: Would we expect anything less than brattiness from a Solis child?
9:47: Bree’s not saying yes. Or no. “What’s the point if I already have a husband I can’t shake?”
9:48: Susan couldn’t control Karl. Edie tried, and failed. Bree’s the one.
9:50: Ah, so…mom isn’t dead? Definitely witness protection…
9:51: Katherine’s trying to rope Angie in to her side.
9:58: Why is Angie wearing a bumble-bee bracelet with a pink floral tunic??
9:59: Angie’s trying to protect herself by throwing suspicion on Katherine?
9:59: This show keeps getting better and better at encompassing the themes/motifs in each episode.
10:01: Eh. Kind of a crappy cliffhanger. We’re done with Orson anyway, right?
