This MAY not be it... but it sounds like it.

From SPOILERFIX(courtesy of Kristin at E Online chat)

When Bree's son gets shipped off to some sort of juvy/rehab center for his drug problems, she will offend nearly every parent in the room with a diatribe about how she's not addicted to crack, didn't raise her child in a trailer park, etc. She's on fiyah.

[spunkygirl]

Actually it was about Gabby telling Carlos she'd kill him, and he said if she cheated on him he'd kill her

Saw that in the preview at the end of Sunday's episode.

If that was it, lame. When I think of snap, I think of what Carlos did or one of them pulling out a gun and starting to scream as they run around the house.

[spunkygirl]

Well they basically showed what ABC did with the neighbor falling over in her yard with the hose, and a little bit with Susan and her mom

Yes... I saw it. When they said "shocking" preview I was expecting something that ABC had not spoonfed us.

[Brent88]

WOW...

So we know Deidre was in the chest, we just don't know exactly how she ties into the mystery yet.

What's with the detective beating up Mike? So much for "buying off" a cop.

Oh and will Lynette's neighbor DIE already?

i like her

What was with Bree telling Andrew that she'll love him even if he's a murderer? I know she was referring to him running over Mama Solis but why did she bring it up randomly like that?

Good episode though it felt like it was missing something.

Wonder what that big thing that Andrew wants to do that'll shock Bree? For some reason all that popped into my head was school shooting. I doubt that'll happen though.

WHERE WAS EDIE?! Once she starts to warm up with me she's been absent

So when will we hear about Gabrielle's pregnancy? Also, what about that pharmacist purposely giving Rex the wrong meds? You think Rex would've shown some signs or something from it by now...

[spunkygirl]

Wow is right, great episode. I feel so bad for Deidre's dad, spent all that time looking for only to find out she was killed and her body was mutilated

Yeah that detective was dumb. What a hypocrite juding Mike for what he did, but yet he's the one who was bought off

Awww I like Mrs. McClusky, she's just lonely. I felt bad for her.

Loved how Gabby got Carlos to tear up the post-nup

Andrew needs to die already, I was thinking when Bree said she'd love him even if he was a murderer, ummm Bree kind of sort of is, he is the one who put Mama Solis in the hospital, I'd so love him to pay for that

All around loved tonight's episode.

Lynette/Mrs. McClusky - loved their scenes tonight. Mrs. McClusky is a very good character IMO, and I really think she and Lynette can have a good relationship. I wish the fact that her son died young had been mentioned tonight, though, but it was very good.

House of Solis - good night with them, but not as good as previous episodes. I felt bad for John when he offered Gabs his card so she could buy shoes. It was hilarious when Gabs got with that man at the restaurant so she could get a free meal! I was surprised at the end when Carlos tore up the post-nuptial agreement.

Susan/Sophie - Great scenes tonight. Susan was hilarious when Lamont asked her to sit next to him on the couch and she just went "No." Lesley Ann Warren is great and I'd love for her to be a regular.

Mike - woah he got his ass beat. I was ROTFLMAO when Sophie came over and he just goes "I fell down the stairs," as if it was NOTHING.

and last but DEFINITELY not least...

House of Van de Kamp - Excellent scenes. Wonderful completely. The dinner table scene was great. When Rex said that he and Bree should support Andrew, the look on Bree's face was just HILARIOUS. HILARIOUS. And then she just blurts out "You're father loves S&M! He let Maisy beat him with a stick" (or something like that). Hilarious scene. I really really felt bad for Andrew when Bree told him that he wasn't going to heaven (loved how she never said that he was going to hell). I was near tears during that entire scene because you could see the hurt in his eyes. The best scene for me was the church scene with Andrew and Rev. Sykes. Andrew is really fleshing out as a character with this storyline and I love it. The ice cream line quickly became a DH classic for me. Right up there with his mom's "Rex cries after he ejaculates" line.

My rating: 8/10.

Next new episode she will suspect(May 1st). Apparently she'll have the symptoms but it's unclear if she'll find out for sure. I have no clue about Rex's medication but George will resurface on May 1st as well. Ah, I love sweeps.

Great episode... defintely near the top. Good for Carlos, tearing up the post-Nupt.

I felt so sorry for Deidre's dad in the opening scene(after the credits)

What is up with Andrew?

I was literally rolling in the floor laughing when Bree said Rex liked S&M. I didn't even hear what she said after that I was just hysterical.

[Pavan]

Excellent episode! I wonder what Mike will do to Paul? I just hope Mike & Susan get back together THIS season.

[Stuck In The '70's]

another great episode.

The funniest scene tonight had to be Bree and her family with the Reverend. I also enjoyed Susan and her mother's dating experiences. and last but not least I really like Mrs.McClusky. I hope she makes more appearances.

On the other side of things. Where is Evie. She hasn't been on in 2 weeks now.
