Desperate Housewives: Return Of The Lawnboy

Bree is leaving on her honeymoon with Orson, when she sees the son she abandoned on television living on the street. She freaks out and goes off to find Andrew. I like the way we're seeing this, where the guy who probably murdered his wife is not quite as crazy as Bree.

Lynette gets away from her family for the weekend with Gaby. Tom pulls the old "my back went out" bit, and he needs help with the crazy kids. Lynette buys it, and winds up driving up with Babymomma.

Susan goes away with the Great Brit. She opens his suitcase, and pulls out a roll of condoms. I mean, like a few dozen condoms, right there at the top of the suitcase.

Susan finds out that Great Brit has only slept with one woman. She tells him she's slept with nine or eleven men, whichever comes last. If he's such a near-virgin and a prude, why did he pack so many condoms?

Gaby is left alone, and winds up meeting John, the former lawn boy. He's become a successful businessman, and is in talks to do a show for the Gardening Network. Since two years ago he couldn't even drive, shouldn't he be a bit young for that? Eh, she sleeps with him anyway.

Babymomma goes crazy again in front of Lynette, and winds up getting out and hitchhiking. Lynette keeps driving, to go help her crazy kids.

Julie finally gets her own storyline, and it's the stereotypical shirtless-bad-boy-next-door-love-affair. Sometimes it's easier to just pick up a check and stay in the background.

Gaby and John wake up in be, and he's bailing her out because his fiance is coming up. The lawn boy is dating the DH equivalent of Paris Hilton. Gaby gets stuck in a suitcase in a clear gimmick infrigement of Susan's schtick.

Susan is very very angry at Great Brit. However, his piano playing makes her quite trampy.

Orson goes to find Andrew, and gives him fifty dollars to eat a meal with him. He tells Andrew not to do anything on the streets he'll regret, then tells him that if he wants to come home, Andrew knows where to go. Great. He lives on the street with no money. What's he going to have to do to get home? "Hi mom, I'm back to stay. I missed you. I had to go down on a long haul trucker to get here, but it feels great to be home. Got any S'mores?"

Tom and Lynette talk in the car, strangely with no crazy kids anywhere.

Edie goes to get her CD player from Mike's hospital room, and gives him a magic erection that wakes him from his coma. You never saw that one on "St. Elsewhere," did you?

I want to know why Orson is being so nice to Andrew, who is such a horrible s---.

Well, Andrew is still Bree's son, and she can't deal with just closing the door on him forever. So Orson brings him back, without knowing what a shiza he was.

So eventually, the murderer will find out that he's not the weirdest person in the house, I guess. Maybe they're going to turn Andrew face by having him save Bree?
