Then again, I teach high school, and I think the Bolens are getting a better “Show, don’t tell” than a lot of the other characters!!

If Tom’s right about Lynette’s need for control, I’ll be interested to see if that comes back out in feelings of loss of control about her pregnancy?

Ryeloza, I agree 100% about wanting more Orson/Katherine. It would be very entertaining to see Bree trying to keep Karl a secret while Orson tries to resist feelings for Katherine, who’s still obsessed with Mike, who remarried Susan who used to be Karl’s wife. SOAP OPERA GOLD!!

Saba—WORD! I can totally see Krazy Katherine going for Susan and getting Julie by mistake???
Karl, I’m with you on Susan’s crazy. It’s less scary than Katherine’s, but it’s still there.

And, LAST but not LEAST: Oh, Krazy Katherine. You so crazy!!!

Winners:

Susan (Yes — again): She shot Krazy Katherine… In the arm! Funny stuff. Well, not if it were in real life, but this is one time where Susan’s clumsiness actually worked to her -advantage-.

Katherine: Watching this train wreck is like watching, well — like watching Susan with a gun. Funny. But a little sad, as well. Maybe she’ll end up on the same ward with Diabolical Dave. (Spinoff idea!: “Love Behind Padded Walls”)

The Maid: Potent words from a guest star. My seond time picking a guest star.

Woser/Linner: Angie: I love her, and the next minute — she scares me. That is all.

Losers:

Nick: Not only does he look like a vampire, but also his acting is crap! Too faux Marlon Brando/Jack Nicholson wannabe-ish.

Roy: Change your sexist ways. You CAN teach an old dog new tricks.

Lynette: Get some therapy and let Tom take the reigns every once in awhile.

…but I love her.

Woser: Katherine. I loved the way she was staring at Mike at the beginning of the neighborhood watch meeting. She’s shameless. just the way I like her.

Angie: Thumbs up for hiding/protecting their family’s shadiness so swiftly but thumbs down for encouraging Katherine. It was clever but wrong. But on the other hand, Susan DID try to kill her son so I think she deserves some payback in the form of a stalker. And for being cheated on. And I still kind of think she’s the Julie Strangler.

Susan: for protecting her kid and harming ANOTHER innocent person. If anyone were to kill anyone, she would probably be the one (ironically) to do it by accident.

Loser:
the (nosy) maid: it was nice of her to try and help someone but she should stay out of other people’s business. Bree didn’t even listen anyways, so she just wasted her energy trying to help her. And she kind of sounded pro-Orson. which I hate. I don’t think she would be if she knew what a killer-klepto-lying-blackmailer Orson is.

Winner(again): Tom. I also want a Tom of my own. Its amazing how attractive someone can become just by their actions and intentions. He’s the only winner this week.

Winners :
Gaby : Great episode for her. Even though the kids sled down the stairs she got off as the sane one, I mean, what kind of mother can blame her for the kids doing stupid stuff? Again, who’s cray enough to watch kids all day long when they play? That mother was insane. Besides, killing monkeys are always a must at parties.

Angie : Although the Bolens are very shady she got to avoid that bullet – for this week – while manipulating Katherine.

Katherine : Entertaining Katherine – as always. She even crossed the line as the sane one this week. I mean, Susan is a mean bitch who wouldn’t choose her for neighborhood watch. And then she shot at her! I mean comon, I can’t even believe people are rooting for Crazy Susan

WOSER : Scavos. Not much to work with this week. Blah!

Loser :

Bree. I cannot believe a hapily ever-after moment between Bree and Karl. I mean, they are still doing it in a crappy motel after all this time?

Nick: Besides looking like the trailer-park white trash of Wisteria Lane, the guy was sleeping with a girl he could’ve had as his daughter.

Susan: Big time LOSER. I mean, throughout this post I have showed how Crazy Susan is going bonkers. Katherine looks more stable than her.

Losers: Lynette – we know she’s a control freak, and we know Tom lets her be, but the way she talks to Tom sometimes, like when she said “all I know is we’re getting flower boxes”, that’s pretty much just rude and disrespectful, she does castrate him a bit, way more than Bree does to Orson – and why did the bird house have to pay the ultimate price?; Roy – whereas I am not on Lynette’s side, I am also not on Roy’s side, although I think he’s more old fashioned than a chauvinistic pig. I don’t think he should always defer to Tom for help, particularly since Lynette was the one who hired. And why did guest Roy star in his own story when his girlfriend, a regular character, was so underused? When are we gonna get to the juicy part of their relationship, like, say, Karen finding out he’s got like seven wives chopped up in his basement; Bree – she clearly knows she wants to keep this affair with Karl Mayer going, but still doesn’t know what to do with Orson. Bree has always been such a resourceful woman, what happened to her? Can’t she just threaten to put Orson in jail too, see what happens, didn’t he steal a lot of stuff last season?; Nick – again, creepy guy.

Winners – Tom: he has to make the ultimate sacrifice and allow his b*lls to be chopped off every now and then so that his wife can be happy, and that mustn’t be easy; Carlos – he made the love of his life realize how great of a mother she is, a nice turn from what Carlos has shown us in the past few episodes; Jamaid (whatever her name is) – that woman is not a hypocrite as some people (not on this blog) are saying, she is someone who did something stupid and subtly tries to help others not to be that stupid. She was right on about Bree and her guilt, and her speech at the end was very heartfelt and touching, greatest guest star in a while; Angie – what she did was wrong, but let’s face it, this woman has to protect her family, and she’s doing a heck of job. She’s a psycho… but she’s a winner.
