Women and Death
Season 8 | Episode 17 | Aired 03/18/12

Remember how we said Susan wasn't going to talk at Mike funeral? Well, that's not quite true. She steps up before her friends to let everyone know that her husband is in a place where he's eating cheeseburgers with his family, fishing by a waterfall and watching football with his son. That's why she has to say goodbye to him now. Susan says, "I love you once, I love you twice, I love you more than beans and rice."

Renee's beautiful rendition of "Amazing Grace" is heard as friends and family make their way out of the church. All those who loved Mike Delfino gather at the cemetery. Susan places a rose atop the coffin. MJ sets his dad's baseball glove right next to it. The crowd eventually disperses so that Susan can have one last moment with her beloved husband.

Back home, Susan worries about all the things Mike handled for the family. Gaby, Lynette and Bree assure her that they will be there to hold her up. That's what friends do. They are always there for each other. That's good news for Bree. She'll need her friends now that her fingerprints have been matched to the dead guy the cops just dug up.

  • Dead Men Tell Some Tales DING DONG! Someone's at the door at Renee's bridal shower and it's not the stripper Gaby hired. It's the police arresting Bree for the murder of Gaby's evil stepfather. Bob bails her out, but she now needs a criminal defense attorney. The cops have her fingerprint on the dead guy's shirt. It seems Bree straightened his outfit before they ditched his body. Just because dead men tell no tales, it doesn't mean they can't look spiffy.
