Danielle: "That's why it's freaky. George's jokes aren't funny."



In the dining room, George and Andrew are still laughing.



Andrew: "So, George. Can I ask you a question? It's kinda personal."



George: "Sure."



Andrew: "Have you ever actually been with a woman?"



George: "Excuse me?"



Andrew: "Well, let's be honest. I think it's obvious by the way that you talk and act that you're not a player. So, I was just curious to find out if you had ever actually gotten in the game."



George: "My experience with women is none of your business."



Andrew: "I think it is. I mean, you're dating my mom. And we both know that at your age, dating is a little more than just holding hands."



George: "We're not dating, exactly."



Andrew: "Well, sure you are. And you know what? I think it's great, but I want to make sure my mom's happy, you know and it would really set my mind at ease to know she's with a guy who knows how to please a lady."



George: "This is inappropriate."



Andrew: "You know, my parents had a great sex life. Yeah, I heard 'em through the wall in my bedroom once."



George: "Please shut up."



Andrew: "You should have heard my mom too. She had this, this weird moan. It was kinda like 'ummm, uh!' Isn't that bizarre? That's the sound my mom makes when she climaxes."



George stares at Andrew. Bree and Danielle enter the room, carrying dessert.



Bree: "Okay, time for cobbler. Sorry, one of the dessert plates doesn't match. I tried to replace it but it's Spode Florence. It's a rare pattern. Belonged to my grandmother, but hopefully, once you taste the dessert, you'll forget all about it."



George: "I'm not hungry."



Bree: "George you have to have this. It's absolutely scrumptious." (Bree takes a bite) "Ummm, ummm!"



Andrew mouths "That's it" to George while pointing to his mother. George jumps up and slams his hand on the table.



George: "Go to your room!"



Bree: "George."



George: "You heard me. Go to your room."



Andrew: "Mr. Williams, what's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"



George: "Bree, please back me up."



Bree: "Well. What did he say?"



George: "I can't say. It's too sordid, but he said it! Are you gonna back me up or what?"



Bree: "George, I can't allow you to discipline my child if you won't even tell me what he did."



George stares at Andrew, who smiles slightly. George storms out of the house.



Bree: "George! George!"



Gabrielle's House



Gabrielle enters the kitchen, carrying shopping bags. She pushes the button on the answering machine.



David: (on machine) "Mrs. Solis. David Bradley. Look I feel really bad about the tone of our meeting so to make up for it, I'm gonna do you a favor. The more I think of it, the more I'm convinced your marriage is a train wreck, the gnarly type, you know, mass casualties. Anyway, I'm passing on the name of a divorce lawyer. K-"



Gabrielle hits the "off" button, hard.



David Bradley's Law Office



Gabrielle storms in.



Gabrielle: "You have some nerve, leaving that message on my machine."



David: "You realize this is entirely inappropriate."



Gabrielle: "I will tell you what is inappropriate. You making sweeping assumptions about the state of my marriage."



David: "Care for a drink?"



Gabrielle: "No. I like to keep a clear head when I'm telling people off. What makes you think you know anything about me or my husband?"



David: "Well, your husband's record speaks for itself. But you, I'd rely on my instincts."



Gabrielle: "Would those be the same instincts that picked out that cologne?"



David: "You're privileged. You're pampered. You're spoiled. You want what you want, when you want it. You want excitement. A quickie every five months in a prison trailer isn't gonna scratch that itch."



Gabrielle: "With all due respect, I will decide for myself what needs to be scratched and when."



David: "Mrs. Solis, you are a beautiful, desirable woman. Your husband is a dimwit. A corrupt violent criminal. You could do so much better."



Gabrielle: "Are you hitting on me?"



David: "What would you say if I were?"



Gabrielle: "I'd say I'm pregnant!"



David: "So, I see you're stuck."



Gabrielle: "I'm not stuck, Mr. Bradley. Believe it or not, I love my husband."



David: "I charge seven hundred dollars an hour plus Xeroxing."



Gabrielle: "I'll pay you six and I expect a conjugal visit tomorrow by noon."



David: "Aren't you demanding."



Gabrielle: "Like you said. I want what I want when I want it."



She walks out of the office.



Fairview Memorial Park - Daytime



Mike and Susan are walking through the park, holding fliers.



Mike: "So, a woman I talked to in Social Service said a lot of runaways hang out here. What?"



Susan: "I'm just happy to be spending the day with you."



Mike: "At homeless shelters and bus stations? I'm gonna go ask these guys if they've seen Zach. I think we'll cover more ground if we split up."



Susan: "Okay."



Mike kisses Susan before he walks away.



Mike: "Thanks."



Susan walks around by herself, handing out fliers to people she passes.



Susan: "Have you seen this boy? Hey, missing kid. Anyone? Going once, going twice..."



At an ice cream stand, Susan takes two sundaes, holding one in each hand. She gestures to the fliers.



Susan: "Oh. Do you mind keeping those and pass them out when people get their ice cream?"



Ice Cream Vendor: "Huh."



Susan: "What?"



Ice Cream Vendor: "Well, isn't that him?"



He points to a nearby bench.



Ice Cream Vendor: "Over there."



Susan sees Zach sitting on the bench.



Susan: "Oh. Zach. Zach!"



Susan runs to Zach, still holding the ice cream. Zach sees her and takes off running.



Susan: "Whoa. No, no no. No, no no, oh. Don't, don't, don't. Don't, don't, Zach, don't run away. Wait! Come on, just, would you just get back here? Come on really, just, let's just talk."



Susan chases after Zach, as the ice cream drips all over her.



Susan: "Damn it Zach. It's enough already."



Zach is cornered and picks up a plank of wood and holds it up toward Susan. Susan tosses the ice cream and runs away.



Mike is standing by a statue, looking around. Susan comes running up, looking behind her. She is a mess, covered in ice cream and fudge sauce.



Mike: "Nobody here has seen Zach. But there is a halfway house on the west side I want to check out. Are you okay?"



Susan: "I got you some ice cream."



Mike: "You did?"



Susan: "But then I got hungry."



Bree's House



Susan, Gabrielle, and Bree stand in the kitchen.



Susan: "So then I just threw my ice cream at him and ran. Well, somebody say something."



Gabrielle: "Thank God you were in flats."



Bree: "I'm still recovering from Mike is Zach's real father."



Susan: "I should have told Mike I saw Zach. I'm a horrible person, right?"



Gabrielle: "No, Susan, come on. Zach attacked Felicia. He, he blew up your kitchen. Evidently he tried to kill Mike. We can all agree this kid's a freak!"



Susan: "What do you think, Bree?"



Bree: "Well, I think given everything that's happened, um, it's perfectly justified that you'd be frightened of Zach."



Susan: "But;



Bree: "But, Zach is Mary Alice's son. He grew up playing in our yards. If he has any hope of surviving, I have to believe he's better off here than on the street."



Susan nods.



Lynette's House



Tom and Lynette are doing dishes together.



Lynette: "I couldn't have imagined how much going back to work would upset Parker."



Tom: "Look, he's gonna be fine. He's just gotta get used to daddy providing all the love. I'm kidding, I'm kidding. I am kidding. Kids are resilient. He will adapt."



Lynette: "Tom, he attacked a teacher with an umbrella."



Tom: "It was a poke. He poked her."



Lynette: "I don't know. Maybe I shouldn't be working."



Tom: "The kids would certainly benefit from having two stay-at-home parents, although buying food might become an issue."



Lynette: "Maybe I can change my work schedule. Try to get some flex time."



Tom: "Would Nina go for that?"



Lynette: "No! No, no, no, no, no! It would help if you came up with some ideas."



Tom: "How about hugs?"



Lynette: "Hugs?"



Tom: "Yeah. read about in one of those family magazines that kids are supposed to get, like, ten hugs a day. It makes them feel more secure. I say pile on the hugs."



Lynette: "That'll fix everything? Hugs?"



Tom: "Yeah. Come here. Come here. Hi."



Lynette: "Hi."



Tom (hugging Lynette): "It's working, isn't it?"



Lynette: "Shut up."



Lynette's House - Parker's Room



Parker is sitting in his bed, reading by flashlight under an open umbrella. Lynette enters.



Lynette: "Hey, buddy. You busy?"



Parker: "Yes. Mrs. Mulberry is reading to me."



Lynette: "Well, isn't she nice. It's time for bed, so I'm gonna tuck you in, okay?"



Lynette closes the book and takes the umbrella.



Parker: "No!"



Lynette closes the umbrella and sits next to Parker.



Lynette: "I know things have been hard for you since I started back to work, but it is just as hard for me to be away from you. And, you just have to remember that even when I'm not around, my love for you is real. You may not be able to see it, but it's not imaginary like Mrs. Mulberry. It's real. Okay, honey?"



Parker: "Mrs. Mulberry is real. She said you're a liar."



Lynette: "Parker!"



Parker pulls the sheet over his head. Lynette pulls it down.



Lynette: "Parker."



Parker: "We're reading."



He pulls the sheet back over him.



Lynette pats Parker's head and walks out.



Fairview Memorial Park Daytime



Bree and George are having a picnic at a picnic table.



George: "I don't understand. Why can't we see each other anymore?"



Bree: "Because. Ever since I found out what Andrew said, I've been doing some soul searching and I realize that everything that's happened is completely my fault."



George: "Oh no. That's, that's ridiculous."



Bree: "No, it's not. All the things that Andrew's been saying, the way he's been acting, it's all connected to his father's death and it's clear to me that I need to spend more time focusing on him and his needs."



George: "You know, you're right. You do need to focus on Andrew."



Bree: "Thank you, George, for being so understanding."



George: "Of course. So have you thought about counseling? That place you sent him to, that behavioral modification camp. He got counseling there, right?"



Bree: "But I only sent him there because his behavior at the time was so completely out of bounds."



George: "You don't think that what he said to me was out of bounds?"



Bree: "I just think if I spend a lot of time with him, it'll really help."



George: "Why not do both? Let him spend a few months with some caring professionals, then bring him home."



Bree: "What he said to you was horribly rude. That camp, it's extreme and unless I felt like Andrew was getting really out of control, then…;



George: "Well, let's hope it doesn't come to that. You know, in spite of everything that's happened, I really like Andrew."



Bree: "Oh George, really?"



George: "Yeah. Truth is, he reminds me of me."



Fairview County Jail Conjugal Visit Trailer



Guard: "Conjugal visit rules are you got forty-five minutes. We call every fifteen minutes to make sure you're still here. You understand?"



Gabrielle: "Yes, we got it. Uh, we interrupt our lovemaking to answer the phone or you call out the dogs."



Gabrielle pushes the guard out of the trailer. She turns toward Carlos.



Gabrielle: "I'm ready whenever you



Carlos is already in his underwear.



Gabrielle: "obviously are."



Gabrielle jumps into Carlos' arms. They fall on the bed and begin kissing.



Later, clothes are strewn all over the floor. Carlos and Gabrielle in bed.



Gabrielle: "Carlos, are we gonna make it?"



Carlos: "We just did. You wanna go again?"



Gabrielle: "No. I'm talking about us. Our relationship, our marriage. Carlos, you're gonna be a father. When you get out of here, you're gonna need to get a job and make an honest living, for me and our child."



Carlos: "Babe, I've learned my lesson. Okay, when I get out of here, everything's gonna be different. We're gonna start over with a new life, and a great family and nothing is gonna get in the way of that. Hey, so you never told me. How's the new lawyer? Do you like him?"



The phone rings. Carlos reaches over and answers.



Carlos: "Yeah. Yeah, I'm still here."



Gabrielle: "Okay, enough chit chat. We only have thirty minutes left and I want to make the most of it."



Fairview Memorial Park



Susan is wandering around the park. She sees Zach sitting on a bench. Zach's foot is bandaged. He picks at the bandage before looking up to see Susan approaching.



Susan: "Okay, please, please don't run."



Zach: "I can't. I hurt my foot."



Susan: "How?"



Zach: "I landed on it funny when I was running away from you. What do you want?"



Susan: "Just to talk to you."



Zach: "Why?"



Susan: "Because, I have a lot of things to say so you can just listen. I'll buy you some food. When was the last time you ate?"



Restaurant



Zach is eating.



Zach: "My dad's alive? Where is he?"



Susan: "I don't know. He, he disappeared."



Zach: "But Mike did not kill him? He's alive, you swear?"



Susan: "I swear."



Zach: "Maybe he went to Utah. I mean he used to have a life there. Before me. I don't know, I just need to get some money to find him."



Susan: "Zach, you know what I think? I think you should come back with me."



Zach: "Why?"



Susan: "Because there are still people at home who care about you and there's things that you need to know."



Zach: "Like what?"



Susan: "Well, I can't tell you. You know, you messed up a lot of people's lives. You can't run away from that."



Zach: "Do you mean Julie?"



Susan: "What?"



Zach: "I know that I messed up her life but I didn't mean to. I really miss her out here. I think about her all the time."



Susan: "Yeah, well, Julie's a really special girl."



Zach: "Has she said anything about me? Because if she has, then I might still have a chance with her. If I come back with you, then I could make it up to her."



Susan: "Do you know what I think? I think you were right. I think you should try to find your father first."



Zach: "Yeah?"



Susan: "Yeah. Now that you know he's okay, you should go to him. He'll want to take care of you. That's what parents do. Let me help. How much money do you think you'll need to get to Utah?"



Susan opens her purse.



Lynette's House - Nighttime



Lynette is lying in bed, awake. She gets up and goes into Parker's room. He is sleeping and his umbrella has fallen to the floor. Lynette strokes Parker's head, then grabs the umbrella.



Outside Lynette's House



Lynette goes to the trash can. She opens it and jams the umbrella inside.



Wisteria Lane ?Daytime



The garbage truck is stopped in front of the Scavo house. The worker picks up the can containing the umbrella and dumps it inside the trash truck. He jumps on the side of the truck and it takes off. As it pulls away, the umbrella falls out of the truck, onto the street, and opens.



Lynette's House



In the kitchen, Tom is reading the paper at the table while Lynette sorts through work papers. Parker runs downstairs.



Parker: "Daddy. I can't find Mrs. Mulberry's umbrella. Where is it?"



Tom: "Well, I don't know, sport. Honey, have you seen the umbrella?"



Lynette: "No, can't say that I have."



Tom: "Okay, listen, don't worry about it. I'm sure Mrs. Mulberry is around here somewhere."



Lynette: "Or, uh, maybe she's not. She could have left. You know. Maybe she had some other little boy that she needed to help."



Parker: "Like who?"



Lynette: "I don't know. It could be a little boy in, uh, England named Spencer."



Tom: "Lynette?"



Lynette: "I mean this is conjecture on my part, but it is possible that someone like little Spencer needs Mrs. Mulberry more 'cause he doesn't have a daddy and a mommy who love him. Yeah, that's it. He's an orphan with no hands. Okay?"



Parker nods.



Lynette: "You're so sweet. Come here. I love you. You all right? Go get dressed."



Parker runs upstairs.



Tom: "What have you done to Mrs. Mulberry?"



Lynette: "Until there's a body, there's no evidence of a crime."



Later, Parker, Lynette, and Tom walk out the front door. Parker sees the open umbrella in the street.



Parker: "Mrs. Mulberry! She's back."



Lynette: "Oh. Goodie!"



Parker: "Mrs. Mulberry's back."



Just then, the garbage truck drives by and runs over the umbrella. Parker runs out to the crushed umbrella. He turns and grabs Lynette and cries on her.



Lynette: "Oh."



Parker: "She got run over. She's dead."



Lynette: "Oh. Don't you worry. I'm here."



Tom: "Maybe it's okay, buddy. Maybe we can call nine-one-one."



Lynette: "No, Tom. She's gone."



Swim Meet



Andrew is getting ready to race. He waves to Bree, sitting on the side. He sees George approaching Bree with a gift bag. Andrew watches as George finds Bree and sits next to her.



Announcer: "Swimmers, take your mark."



Bree: "George, what are you doing here?"



George: "Don't worry Bree, I'll be quick. I thought about what you said and you're right. Andrew needs his space."



Bree: "Thank you, George."



George: "It's best that I stay away and I completely understand if you want to change pharmacists, but I did want to give you a little goodbye gift."



Bree: "Oh."



A starter pistol fires and the swimmers begin racing.



Bree opens the box and pulls out a plate.



Bree: "George, it's my pattern. Where did you find it?"



George: "I got lucky at an online auction."



Andrew, swimming in the race, is distracted as he watches Bree and George.



Bree: "I love it. Thank you."



Bree hugs George, who begins to kiss her neck. Bree tries to pull back.



Bree: "George."



Andrew stops swimming when he sees George kissing his mother. George looks over at Andrew.



Bree pushes against George.



Bree: "George. George. George!"



Andrew swims across the swimming lanes and climbs out of the pool. George and Bree see him.



Bree: "Andrew, what are you doing?"



Andrew jumps on George and begins punching him in the face.



Bree: "Andrew! Andrew!"



George stands up, trying to get away and Andrew jumps on his back.



George: "You crazy-"



Bree: "Stop it!"



The coach comes over and pulls Andrew off. Bree helps George into a chair.



Andrew: "Did you see it? He was kissing her!"



Bree (to George): "Oh my God. You're bleeding"



Andrew: "That freak was kissing her!"



Coach: "I don't care. You gotta calm down now!"



George looks over at Andrew with the hint of a smile on his face.



Bree's House



In his room, Andrew is packing a suitcase. He places a picture of Rex in his bag as Bree watches.



"The world is filled with good fathers. How do we recognize them? They're the ones who are missed so terribly that everything falls apart in their absence."



Fairview County Jail Conjugal Visit Trailer



Gabrielle is asleep and Carlos is watching her. He places a hand gently on her stomach.



"They're the ones who love us, long before we've even arrived."



Wisteria Lane Nighttime



Mike is walking his dog and finds a flyer of Zach on the ground.



"They're the ones who come looking for us when we can't find our way home."



Lynette's House Nighttime



Tom walks in the bedroom to find Lynette sobbing in bed.



Tom: "Hey, what's wrong?"



Lynette: "Because of me, my son's imaginary friend got crushed by a garbage truck. I am the worst person in the world."



Tom puts his arm around Lynette.



"Yes, the world is filled with good fathers."



Tom: "Honey, he is gonna get over this in no time. Trust me. And one day, when he is all grown up, you and Parker are gonna laugh hysterically about this."



Lynette: "You really think so? Really?"



"And the best are the ones who make the women in their lives



Tom: "I promise."



He kisses her forehead and hugs her.
