Desperate Housewives: Season 4

[Benzgirl]

We already know something traumatic happened to her. When she was speaking with Julie, she mentioned her earliest memory. It also happened in "that room".

What makes me most curious is the reason why they moved back. "We had to".

Lots of questions. Kind of reminds me of the season with the Applewhites.

I hope this family is less obnoxious than the Applewhites.

I was also thinking that the "real daughter" died and was "replaced" (or that the "current one" was kidnapped.)

[Benzgirl]

This could be something similar to the General Hospital storyline from the late 70s where Leslie took the rap for Laura killing David (?) Hamilton. Laura "blacked out" the incident, married Scotty, had an affair with Luke, ran away....

I think this is probably the same girl, just lost her memory (almost said mind) due to something traumatic that happened in "the room"

I don't get the deal with the new family?

If the real child actually died and she was replaced with a lookalike that was kidnapped, you would think the family would stay away, so that no one would know.


The mom (dont remember her name) said the family "didn't have a choice" on moving back???

And WHY is Edie (sp?) all crazy???!!!!

Edie has always been crazy. She just never had her claws in anyone else long enough

Plus, her craziness now stems from something SHE wants (other than revenge), so she's fighting harder and less-fairly than she has in the past. She wants Carlos because she wants Carlos. When she wanted Mike, it was because Susan also wanted him. When she wanted Susan's ex-husband, it was because Susan didn't want her to have him. When she solicited Lynette's, Bree's and Susan's friendship (at her son's birthday party), it was because Gabby didn't want her to have it. She's always been fighting against other women; now she's fighting for herself. And that brings out a whole new messa crazy.

Of course, it might be that she wants Carlos because Carlos doesn't want her. But even then, she's fighting against a man which is totally different from the cattiness she usually gravitates towards.

She not only wants Carlos for Carlos, but she wants the money in the off shore account!
