Desperate Housewives

Season 6; Episode 14

“The Glamorous Life”

(Originally Aired: 1/31/10)

Lynette doesn’t like that Dr. Graham always sides with Tom. Tom convinces her to attend a play the doctor is in. She’s terrible, which Lynette tells her, but Tom lies and says she was “Great.” Tom admits he likes to be the good cop, forcing Lynette to always be the bad cop. Tom finally admits he hated the play too, and the therapist orders them both out.

Bree is puzzled by Orson’s new found happiness, until she finds his suicide letter! She vows to watch him 24 hours a day.

Angie and Gaby clash over Ana and Danny. Angie convinces Gaby that it’s time for a safe sex talk, but when Carlos sees Gaby’s bought condoms for Ana, he threatens to kill Danny. He tells her that if Ana gets pregnant, she’ll be the one taking care of the baby.

Gaby writes Ana an unsigned check, which she’ll sign if Ana graduates high school without having had sex. But as Ana sees it, her promise not to have sex doesn’t include Danny. Carlos catches Danny with Ana and threatens to kill him. Angie barges in and shouts, “You ever touch him again, you’re dead.” Carlos and Gaby come over the next night to apologize and overhear Nick telling Angie that soon the truth about them will come out. I think Gaby will be keeping a closer eye on the Bolens from here on out.

As Susan is signing her self out of ownership of  Double D’s she meets stripper Robin, who she tells that it’s never too late to change your life, so she quits! And shows up at her house the next day. Now Susan feels responsible for her, so she hires Robin as her assistant at school. One of the students’ fathers, who just so happens to be one of the schools’ biggest financial supporters, recognizes her and she’s fired on the spot. Susan talks Mike into letting Robin move in until she finds a job.

Orson dares Bree to say she loves him and she can’t do it. She forces him to attend an anniversary celebration for an elderly couple and leaves him by the pool. She sees him about to wheel himself in and she runs to stop him. He asks what he’s got to live for her, if she doesn’t love him anymore, and she says, “I loved you once. I can’t recapture that if you’re not here.”

Lynette balks at the idea of seeing a couples’ therapist. Meanwhile, Katherine is seeing her own psychiatrist, Gaby and Susan are determined to find out which of if their kids are in the smartest group at school, and Angie disapproves of Danny’s new girlfriend, Ana!

Let me first start out by saying I used to love Bree and Orson together until the writers wrecked their storyline and made me hate Orson to the point I wanted him off the show.  Don’t get me wrong, I love Kyle MacLachlan, but Orson has been a pain in the behind and things are getting worse every week.

Tom and Lynette’s storyline this week was fun and touching at the same time. Tom told Lynette last week that they needed to talk about the loss of the baby and they desperately needed it even if Lynette denied it all the way to the shrink’s office. I could feel her pain as Lynette reluctantly started talking to the shrink (played by Frasier’s Jane Leeves). It will be interesting to see how the Scavos cope with the upcoming therapy sessions and how it’ll affect them as a couple.

I’d like to go on the record right now by saying I was not a bit surprised that Angie didn’t like Ana and was ready to do anything possible to break Danny and Ana up. What surprised me about this story line was when Lee put in his two cents about the situation, and Angie actually following his suggestion to give Ana a chance.

And how cute was it to see Gabby and Susan try to discover what the animal groups really meant but it got old soon. Once again, both characters needed to make fools of themselves in order to learn how to be moms.

And FINALLY, we get to see Katherine!! Since we last saw her about 3 episodes ago when she was sent to the looney bin, she has had weeks of one-on-one time with her shrink to analyze her actions and return to reality.  I thought she looked genuinely better, and I did not believe she was faking it to her shrink, do you?

McCluskey comes to the rescue again! This time, she helped Katherine realize that she could return to Wisteria Lane and even convinced Lynette, Gaby, Bree, and Susan to come see Katherine.  It’ll be interesting to see how everyone copes with her return, including Katherine herself. I truly believe that Katherine is one of the best characters on the show right now, and she has been pretty much one of the people that kept me watching the show.

Comments??   Suggestions??   Love to hear from you!!

Until Next Time!
