I would have never guessed this & now I feel silly because it's really a pretty obvious story line. He's been sick, George has been giving him the wrong pills, etc, but I still didn't see it coming. After they called her i thought it was a trick. 2) Does anyone else get the feeling that Gabby isn't ever going to have a baby? Maybe she's not really pregnant or will have a miscarriage? I hope if she has a miscarriage that it's a revelation of that she really wanted a baby & didn't know it, etc, that they don't have her play it off - it's just too serious / real an issue for so many women to play it off. But the more I watch, the more I can't imagine her having a baby. 3) Will Lynette go back to work? I vote yes, and then she'll hate it. 4) They wouldn't kill Mike off the show - or write him out - would they???? Boy, I would really hate it if he left. The morbid "things don't always work out" message at the end when he was coming home left me thinking it was their story & it will be a Mike / Susan issue? 5) Is Mike Zack's dad? That would be too strange for me to handle This is of course all speculation on my part, what do you ladies think??? "

I was so happy the explained the whole Mary Alice/Paul/Dan/Zach/Deirde thring, but I pretty much figured out what happened was what happened. I defintely think it's possible that Mike is Zach's father and didn't know it. I think next season will be about him trying to find that out and building a relationship w/Zach. I don't think Mike will die - I think he'll tell Zach what happened. I read that only one guy from the cast would die, and Rex did, so I doubt Mike will be killed off.

I couldn't believe Rex died either. And now it looks like Bree was poisining him! Should be interesting to see what happens next season and if she gets in trouble, or if George, the pharmicist gets caught.

I think Lynette will go back to work - I don't know if she'll hate it or not - she always wanted to go back and now that she can, she doesn't seem to want to.

I wonder what is up w/that new neighbor that moved in w/her son. Very odd that she wouldn't let Edie in her house...

Does anyone else think that Gabby & John planned that little stunt in the court room? I believe so! Remember that she had refused to testify, then all of a sudden she decided to? I think not. She looked a little too smug & so did he when Carlos made that outburst. Now, Carlos will def. get convicted b/c that totally made him look dangerous "I, am going to KILL you!" & now Gabby & John can be together.

Wow, hadn't thought of that, but it's a great theory! Plus isn't Carlos in jail from now on - like he wouldn't be coming home anyway because of the other thing? Makes sense.

Mike is definately going to be fine. I think it's rather poignent that his son will be holding the gun he wanted to shoot his dad [that he didn't know is his dad] with, but can't because he finds out Mike is his father. Awwww. J/k. Blech. I don't like that story line but that's exactly how I think it will go. Then, as shopchicago stated, the story line will be about Mike building a relationship with Zach (although Zach's dad will definatly come back into the picture to work on their relationship too).

I really don't understand why they wrote in the new family moving in on Wysteria. I couldn't care less about them and their sordid details. I hope they ditch that story line and stick with the original 4/5.

Can I just say I cannot stand Eva Longoria and Terri Hatcher. I wouldn't have minded the two so much, except for their ever-present image in the media. I suppose it's not their fault the media chose those two to fawn over, but it really ticks me off they [the media] assume it's those two we are all interested in. I'm not. I want to know what's going on with Marcia Cross, even Felicity Huffman over the other two.

Last night was gooood. I missed the week before, so I was a little lost, but no biggie. The two people I've been thinking about this morning are Mike and Bree. Here's my guess for Mike's outcome next season. He goes home, finds Zach there, Zach pulls the gun on him, but Mike says "Don't shoot. I'm your father". He may or may not be, but it's my guess that at this point he believes that he is.

Now for Bree. Rex's doctor was pretty sure that Bree was "poisoning" him w/ the extra potassium. Now that Rex is dead, I wonder if she'll be charged with his murder??? She wouldn't be convicted, but could you imagine Bree in jail for even a niight? I can't imagine the doctor never saying anything. I don't believe Bree did it, though. It's obviously the psycho pharmicist friend.

What was the point of the new neighbor and her son....they didn't go anywhere with that. Seemed pretty pointless.

Edie cracked me up..."stick it up my what?!"

probably just a set up for next season....

i am glad that they cleared up the whole mystery behind mary alice-angela/paul/zach-dana/deidre mess... and am convinced that Mike is Zach-Dana's father.

i can't believe that rex died either- but was glad to see bree let it out with her crying... the whole time she was finishing up her silverware- i was saying "let it out... let it out bree!" they will catch george...

and i LOVED LOVED LOVED eva's speech to carlos when she brought him the suit about him getting up the with baby, feeding the baby and taking the baby to the doctors "because a car seat just doesn't fit in the maserati!" so sounded like something i would say if i ever become accidentally pregnant!

My friend has a theory that the new neighbors are FBI or something along those lines. She could be right, she did predict that Rex would die before the show even started

Hmmm, that's an interesting theory. Maybe they had cameras on everyone's houses inside theirs and that's why they wouldn't let Edie in their house!

I defintely think they were just a set up for next season. Obviously there will be a bigger storyline w/them next season.

I totally agree. I was watching E! last night for the top 100 sexiest, and Eva was #1. I thought that was crazy.

All I can say about the show is WOW! I am glad they clear up the whole baby (Zack) thing. I am sad that Rex died. I was actually starting to like his character. I feel bad for Bree, plus he died thinking that she tried to posion him. So sad! And I think lynette will enjoy going back to work. Her husband Tom? is ticking me off. He is being so self absorbed. They are going to get a divorced, I think. I mean nothing has been going right for them. As for the new family, I guess since they solved all the problems pretty much for the season, they needed to add another drama-filled family.
