Suspicion Song
Season 8 | Episode 8 | Aired 11/13/11

Bree calls the police when she hears a strange noise in her house at night. She comes downstairs to discover that the police are already there. Unfortunately, the cop standing before her is Detective Chuck Vance. The guy is still doing his best to intimidate Bree, as he believes she's protecting a friend. That much is true. As we all know, Bree would do anything for her friends. More on that later.

Carlos is still drinking up a storm. Gaby convinces him to stay home from work while she takes care of things at the office. One of the company's biggest clients, Frank Sweeney, isn't happy. Gaby goes into full flirting mode to try to placate the guy. But Mr. Sweeney is more impressed with Geoffrey, the Senior Account Manager. After the client leaves, Gaby confides in Geoffrey about her hubby's drinking. Geoffrey promises to cover the office while Gaby takes care of things at home.

Carlos informs Gaby that Geoffrey is a backstabbing snake who is trying to steal the company's clients. She burst into the office to confront snake boy, who promptly blabs about her hubby's drinking problem in front of Mr. Sweeney. The client wants to see Carlos right away, but not for the reason you might think. Sweeney is a recovering alcoholic who wants Carlos to go into rehab before he loses everything. His words seem to get through, as Carlos later dumps a bottle of booze down the drain.

  • Painting a Picture of Guilt Andre sets up all of Susan's incriminating pieces on a wall at an art gallery opening. Chuck follows Bree to the gallery. He's no art connoisseur, but that doesn't stop him from formulating a theory about Susan's work. Not good. Both Susan and Gaby are upset with Bree because she didn't tell them about how close Chuck has been getting to the truth. Bree was doing it to protect them, but that strategy has obviously backfired. This has her feeling very alone. It also has her wanting a drink.
  • Anniversary Blues Lynette sports a brand new hairdo to sneak into her hubby's apartment to leave a bottle of scotch on his nightstand on their anniversary. Unfortunately, Tom doesn't come home alone. Jane is with him. Lynette hides under the bed, but springs back up once things look like they are about to get hot and heavy. Awkward!
  • Art Imitates Life All of Susan's portraits are mocked by instructor Andre until she creates a magnificent piece of art that features four women standing over an open grave in the woods. Of course, the body that served as the inspiration for her work is no longer there. Mike buries it in a spot where concrete is laid the next day. Think he called Paul Young for some tips?
