Desperate Housewives: Season 4

Hmmm...I don't think so. Orson still has some secrets.

I don’t think they actually said why Orson ran over Mike. I figured it was because Mike had seen Orson at Monique’s house the night she died.

yeah, that's probably it...I had forgotten. The stories on this show are so complicated.

I just wish they'd focus more on the characters we like and care about. I am sick of Katherine getting so much air time.
At least if they are going to show her, then I wish the show dealt with her daughter and not the "other" Chicago secret.

^^^ I love Katherine. Give me her over Lynnette's cancer, more Gabi and Carlos (and Edie) or more Susan and Mike anyday.

And I wouldn't be surprised if the Chicago secret and the daughter secret are the same or connected.

I feel the same way. Mike and Susan are plain boring, as is Tom.

I keep thinking that Katherine did something traumatic to the daughter's brain -- like a extreme hypnosis, a lobotomy or ECT-gone-wrong.

Sure, we all think that Katherine's hubby had an affair with a patient (or at least that is what they want us to think), but I'm sure there will be a twist in that story too. Remember, we all thought that Orson killed is ex wife, until he appeared last season.

BTW...I thought that Orson riding the motorbike and crashing was hysterical.

Thank you! I had completely forgotten that Mike had seen Orson there.


Here are my theories about Katherine's story line...

• I think the real Dylan died somehow, in the same room the aunt died in.
• Somehow, her real dad (and Katherine's aunt) were involved in Dylan's death, but I haven't figured out how.
• Similar to Zach's story line, a girl Dylan's age was taken from her real family and "transplanted" into Katherine's. This is the "Dylan" we see now. (I'll be disappointed with the lack of creativity if this turns out to be the case.)
• "Dylan" told Julie that she remembered a man grabbing her... ?? Maybe Dylan's dad kidnapped this "Dylan".
• Perhaps this "Dylan" was taken from a family in Chicago?

In addition to getting this plot fleshed out, I'd like to know what happened to Dylan's real dad. I'm guessing we'll find out in Katherine's aunt's letter.

Tom has always been my favorite of all the husbands/boyfriends, and I've always thought that Lynnette is the most interesting of the "housewives," making them the most interesting couple. But the cancer just ain't working for me.

As for Susan and Mike, Teri Hatcher can do no wrong in my eyes, but the storyline with Mike has basically been going on since the show started.

I was thinking that maybe the husband had violated some of his patients (a la "The Hand That Rocks the Craddle"), and that's why they can never return to Chicago.

I'm starting to enjoy Orson. When he was drunk last night ("there was punch in the rum?) and wanted to deliver Danielle's baby, I was cracking up. Also funny was the line from Katherine's OB-Gyn Husband about Brie faking the pregnancy.

Orson: "I'M A DOCTOR!!!!"

Yes, very funny. I enjoyed it.

Am I assuming this correctly --- Remember a few episodes ago when Carlos was giving a large sum of money to a random guy telling him the crazy lady had to be taken care of?

Was he paying the guy to hide his money overseas?

That's what my wife and I assumed.

[Benzgirl]

I'm not sure if it was to hide it overseas, but definitely to hide it. He told Gabby that it cost him $500,000 to take care of it, but that wasn't $500k in the envelope.
