Maybe the son has anger / rage issues, rather than specifically a history of domestic abuse / roughing up girlfriends, and he burned down the house or something like that.

I wonder why the husband said to Andrea that the son was out of her league (i.e. "too good for her")? That seems kinda rude, although maybe he is trying to protect her so that she stays away from him? Hmmmmm......

I was thinking they looked like acid burns, but who knows.

[texas*princess]

I thought they looked like burns too

I also thought they were burns. From what? I guess that's the mystery of the season. It felt a little repetitive to me though... new neighbors with a strange son who may be dangerous? again?

yea.... maybe that's why they are going to end it in a few years....it's the same thing every year - new neighbors that have a secret, drag the secret on for 9 epsiodes, and in the finale their secret is revealed and they move away

Oh yeah.. do we know who committed suicide in Edie's house? I don't remember that.. and her house was burned to the ground when Susan set it on fire, wasn't it? So it wouldn't have actually been THAT house, would it? The house that Mary Alice killed herself in was the one that the creepy African American family moved into and isn't that the one the gay couple is in now or the one that Katheryn is in? Where did that story come from??

I do like Drea de Mateo. I was expecting her to have a Joisey accent like on Sopranos and I never watched her other show, so I just think of her as Adrianna.

The two gay guys, the African American family and Mary Alice's family have all occupied the same house. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desperate_housewives

Maybe the gay guy / realtor was referring to Edie's suicide attempt, when she was trying to win back Carlos??

Katheryn lives in a separate house...I think it was the house that she lived in before moving away. I assume that Edie's burned down house was rebuilt on the same spot?

The other explanation I can think of for the suicide thing is remember Orson's ex-wife Alma Hodge? I think her death was seen as a suicide since she fell off the roof.

This is definitely the Applewhite house. I can't remember completely but didn't the son who was involved with Bree's daughter commit suicide? I remembee it ended with a gun shot.

[AGDee]

Maybe he was lying? Or maybe it was an inconsistency by the writers that the editors didn't catch. Someone messed up, I think. I just remember thinking "Who the heck killed themselves?" and he specifically said "Shot", I think. When Edie attempted suicide, it was by hanging. I guess things could have happened during the 5 year jump that we don't know anything about because I got the impression that Edie had left and then her and Dave moved back to Mayfair. So confusing. Never mind, we'll ignore the details!

Umm, guys...Mary Alice killed herself in that house. The guy even said she shot herself.

That's what I thought. I don't think I'm understanding the discrepancy.

The realtor implied that Edie was the previous owner of the house, saying she died after hitting a pole. Edie had her own house, it burned down, she rebuilt it. Mary Alice never lived in Edie's house. Edie lived on the street during the first episode of the series, when Mary Alice killed herself. Unless, somewhere along the line, Edie bought Mary Alice's house.

Mary Alice's house: Paul and Zach moved out, the Applewhites moved in, then didn't the gay guys buy it after they moved out?

The realtor said he became the neighborhood realtor because the last one (Edie) died after hitting a pole, not that this was Edie's house.

lol!! When we going to start discussing storylines, I'll be more likely to accept kappamd's theories because the rest of you are already making the 1st episode more mysterious than it was.


Lee said that he had just gotten his realtor's license within in the week. The lady told him that it was a very nice house for his 1st listing. He told her that he lucked out because the former realtor for the street had crashed her car into a pole.
