第一季101The next day my friends came together to pack away my clothes, my personal belongings and what was left of my life. Not quite Gabrielle, not quite. How ironic. To have something I tried so desperately to keep secret treat ed so causally. I'm so sorry, girls. I never wanted you to burden with this.第二天我的朋友们都来帮我收拾衣服，私人物品还有――我剩下的那些东西。
远不只这些Gabrielle，远不只。
多么讽刺，我拼命努力想要保守的秘密就这样随便的被她们发现了。
对不起，姐妹们。
我绝对不想让你们承受这种负担。
102.An odd thing happens when we die. Our senses vanish. Taste, touch, smell, and sound become a distant memory, but our sight --ah, our sight expands, and we can suddenly see the world we've left behind so clearly. Of course, most of what's visible to the dead could also be seen by the living, if they only take the time to look.我们死去以后就会有奇怪的事情发生，我们的感觉消失了，味觉、触觉和听觉都成为遥远的回忆，但是我们的视觉，它变得开阔了。
《Desperate Housewives》第1季1-01The next day my friends came together to pack away my clothes, my personal belongings and what was left of my life. Not quite Gabrielle, not quite. How ironic. To have something I tried so desperately to keep secret treated so causally. I'm so sorry, girls. I never wanted you to burden with this.第二天我的朋友们都来帮我收拾衣服，私人物品还有――我剩下的那些东西。
远不只这些Gabrielle，远不只。
多么讽刺，我拼命努力想要保守的秘密就这样随便的被她们发现了。
对不起，姐妹们。
我绝对不想让你们承受这种负担。
1-02Yes, as I look back at the world I left behind, it's all so clear to me. The beauty that waits to be unveiled, the mysteries that long to be uncovered. But, people so rarely stop to take a look. They just keep moving. It's a shame, really. There's so much to see.是的，当我回头看我身后的世界，它变得如此清晰。
那么多期待闪亮登场的美丽，那么多渴望不被发现的秘密。
但人们很少停下脚步去观察，他们只是一路前行。
这真的很可惜。
1-03Yes I remember the world. Every detail. And what I remember most is how afraid I was, what a waste. You see, to live in fear is not to live at all. I wish I could tell this to those I left behind, but would it do any good? Probably not. I understand now, there will always be those who face their fears, and there will always be those who run away.是的，我记得这个世界的每一个细节。

第一季101The next day my friends came together to pack away my clothes,my personal belongings and what was left of my life.Not quite Gabrielle,not quite.How ironic.To have something I tried so desperately to keep secret treated so causally.I'm so sorry,girls.I never wanted you to burden with this.102.An odd thing happens when we die.Our senses vanish.Taste,touch,smell,and sound become a distant memory,but our sight--ah,our sight expands,and we can suddenly see the world we've left behind so clearly.Of course,most of what's visible to the dead could also be seen by the living,if they only take the time to look.As I look back at the world I left behind,it's all so clear to me:the beauty that waits to be unveiled,the mysteries that long to be uncovered.But people so rarely stop to take a look,they just keep moving.It’s a shame really,there’s so much to see.103.Yes,I remember the world--every detail.And what I remember the most is how afraid I was. What a waste.You see,to live in fear is not to live at all.I wish I could tell this to those I left behind,but would it do any good?Probably not,I understand now--there will always be those who face their fears...and there will always be those who run away.104.When I was alive,I maintained many different identities--lover,wife,and ultimately,victim. Yes,labels are important to the living.They dictate how people see themselves.105.People,by their very nature,are always on the lookout for intruders,trying to prevent those on the outside from getting in.But there will always be those who force their way into our lives,just as there will be those we invite in.But the most troubling of all will be the ones who stand on the outside looking in...the ones we never truly get to know.Life was suddenly full of possibilities,not to mention a few unexpected surprises.106：The search for power begins when we're quite young.As children,we're taught that the power of good triumphs over the power of evil.But as we get older,we realize that nothing is ever that simple.Traces of evil always remain.107：Competition,it means different things to different people.But whether to friendly rivalry,or fight to the death.The end result is the same.There will be winners,and there will be losers, Of course the trick is,to know which battles to fight,you see,no victory comes without a price.There is a widely-read book that tells us everyone is sinner.Of course,not everyone feels guilt over the bad things they do.in contrast,there are those who assume more than their share of the blame,there are others who soothe their consciences with small eggs of kindness.or by telling themselves their sins were justified.Finally there are the ones who simply vow to do better next time.And pray for forgiveness,some times there prayers are answered.109：People are complicated creatures.On the one hand able to perform great acts of charity,on the other,capable of the most underhanded forms of betrayal,it is a constant battle that rages within all of us,because the better angels of our nature,and the temptation of our sinner demons,and sometimes the only way to ward off darkness,is to share a light of compassion.110：trust is a fragile thing,once earned,it affords us tremendous freedom,but once trust is lost, it can be impossible to recover,of course,the truth is we never know who we can trust,those we‘re closest to can betray us,and total strangers can come to our rescue,in the end,most people decide to only trust themselves,it really way is the simplest way,to keep from getting burned.111:We are all search for some one,the special person that who are provide us are missing in our lives,some one who can offer compassion ship,or resistance or security,and sometimes if we search very hard we can find someone who provide ourselves,with all three,yes for all searching for someone,and if we can’t find them,we can only pray,they will find us.112：Death is inevitable,it’s a promise made to each of us at birth,but before that promise is kept, we all hope something will happen to us,whether the thrill of romance,the joy of raising a family,or the anguish of great loss,we all hope experience something that makes our lives meaningful,but the sad fact is not all lives have meaning,some people spend their time on this planet just sitting on the sidelines,waiting for something to happen to them,before it’s too late.113：Sooner or later,the time comes when we all must become responsible adults,and learn to give up what we want,So we can choose to do what is right,of course,a life time of responsibility,isn’t always easy,and as the years go on,it’s a burden that can become too heavy for some to bear,but still we try to do what is best,what is good,not only for ourselves, but for those we love,yes,sooner or later,we must all become responsible adults,no one knows this better than the young.It's impossible to grasp just how powerful love is,it can sustain us through trying times,or motivate us to make extraordinary sacrifices,it can force decent man to commit darkest deeds, or compel ordinary woman to search for hidden truths,and long after we are gone,love remains,burned into our memories,we all search for love,but some of us,after we’ve found it,wish we hadn't.115：Yes,each new day in suburbia brings with it a new set of lies.The worst are the ones we tell ourselves before we fall asleep,we whisper them in the dark to ourselves,telling ourselves we are happy,or that he is happy,that we are change,or that he will change his mind,we persuade ourselves we can live with our sins,or that we can live without him,yes each night before we fall asleep,we lie to ourselves,the desperate,desperate hope,that come morning,it will all be true116：Yes,everyone love the scandal,no matter how big of small,after all,what could be more entertaining.that watching the downfall of the high and mighty?What could be more amusing,than the public exposure of hypocritical sinners.Yes,everyone loves a scandal,and if for some reason,you are not enjoying the latest one…well,the next one is always around the corner.117：We all honor heroes for different reasons,sometimes for their daring,sometimes for their bravery,sometimes for their goodness,but mostly we honor heroes,because at one point or another,we all dream to be rescued,of course if the right heroes doesn’t come along, sometimes we just have to rescue by ourselves.118：Children come into the world with its own agendas,some to brighten our days,some to test our patience,some to give up purpose,some to take care of us,yes when they come, children change everything.Especially when they’re not invited.119：Yes,life is a journey,one that is much better traveled with a companion by our side.Of course, that companion can be just about anyone:a neighbor on the other side of the street...or the man on the other side of the bed.The companion can be a mother with good intentions...or a child who's up to no good.Still,despite our best intentions,some of us will lose our companions along the way.And then the journey becomes unbearable.You see,Human beings are designed for many things,But loneliness isn't one of them.Spring comes every year to Wisteria Lane.It's the time when flowers start to bloom,when butterflies emerge from their cocoons,when bees begin to search for nectar.Spring is also the time when a young man's fancy turns to obsession."Spring comes every year to Wisteria Lane.But not everyone remembers to stop and smell the flowers.Some are too busy worrying about the future or mistakes they've made in the past. Others are preoccupied with not getting caught or thinking of ways to catch someone else. Still,there will always be a few who remember to take a moment and appreciate what Spring has given them,just as there will always be those who prefer to sit in the dark,brooding over everything they've lost.121：The vow is simple,really.Those who take it promise to stay together,for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer,in sickness and in health,to honor and to cherish,forsaking all others, until death do us part.Yes,the vow is simple.Finding someone worthy of such a promise is the hard part.But if we can,that's when we begin to live happily ever after.122：Nothing is forever.And the time comes when we all must say goodbye to the world we know. Goodbye to everything we had taken for granted.Goodbye to those we thought would never abandon us.And when these changes finally do occur,when the familiar has departed and the unfamiliar has taken its place,all any of us can really do is to say hello and welcome.123-124：It's an odd thing to look back on the world,to watch those I left behind.Each,in her own way, so brave so determined,and so very desperate,desperate to venture out,but afraid of what she’ll miss when she goes.Desperate to get everything she wants,even when she is not exactly sure of what that is,desperate for life to be perfect again,Although she realizes their never really was,desperate for a better future,if she can find a way to escape her past,I not only watch,I cheer them on,these amazing women,I hope so much that they’ll find what they’re looking for,but I know not all them will.Sadly…that’s just not the way life works,not everyone gets a happy ending.第二季202、Control,it's extraordinary the tactics people employ to obtain it.Some rely on deception, while others engage in outright trickery.Then there are those who resort to extortion.Why do we fight so hard for control?Because we know:To lose it is to put our fate in the hands of others.And what could be more dangerous?203、Everyone enjoys a game of make-believe now and then.Of course,the ways in which we play can vary greatly.Sometimes,we tell ourselves work won't interfere with our family life. Sometimes we imagine certain relationships to be more meaningful than they really are. Occasionally we put on a show,as if to convince ourselves our secrets aren't really all that terrible.Yes,the game of make-believe is a simple one.You start by lying to yourself.And if you can get others to believe those lies,you win.204、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.They're the ones who love us long before we've even arrived.They're the ones who come looking for us when we can't find our way home.Yes,the world is filled with good fathers.And the best are the ones who make the women in their lives...feel like good mothers.205、Everyone in the world needs someone they can depend on--be they faithful friends, determined advocates or a loving family.But occasionally in life,the people who we thought would always be there for us leave.And if that happens,it's amazing the lengths we'll go to,to get them back.207、Yes,cameras are tools designed to capture images.But in truth,they can capture so much more.They can uncover hidden longing of men who should no longer care.They can reveal the extraordinary secrets of the most ordinary marriages.Most amazing of all,cameras can quietly and clearly reveal to us our dreams--dreams we didn't even know we had.208、In a world filled with darkness,we all need some kind of light.Whether it's a great flame that shows us how to win back what we've lost,or a powerful beacon intended to scare away potential monsters...or a few glowing bulbs that reveal to us the hidden truth of our past...we all need something to help us get through the night...even if it's just the tiniest glimmer of hope.It's not always that easy to distinguish the good guys from the bad guys.Sinners can surprise you.And the same is true for saints.Why do we try to define people as simply good or simply evil?Because no one wants to admit that compassion and cruelty can live side by side in one heart.And that anyone is capable of anything.210、The stories are as old as time itself.The prodigal son who returns home to the father who forgives him.The jealous wife who tricks the husband who trusts her.The desperate mother who risks everything for the child who needs her.And the faithless husband who hurts the wife who loves him so deeply.Why do we listen again and again?Because these are the stories of family,and once we look past the fighting,pain and the resentment?We occasionally like to remind ourselves...there is absolutely nothing more important.211、The act itself never varies.But each kiss carries with it a meaning all its own.It can convey a husband's eternal devotion.Or a wife's enormous regret.It can symbolize a mother's growing concern.Or a lover's growing passion.But whatever its meaning,each kiss reflects a basic human need.The need to connect to another human being.This desire is so strong it's always amazing when some people don’t understand it."212、Illness can take on many forms.Those of the body are easy to treat.Much more difficult are the hidden maladies that fester in our hearts.The secret addictions that consume our souls. And the diseases we deny which affect our judgment.To survive we need to find that special someone who can heal us.But we can never predict who have the cure for what ails us.Or when they'll show up.213、Everyone understands the nature of war.We also understand that victory depends on the cards that we have been dealt.Some,when faced with a bloody battle,simply give in.But for some,surrender is unacceptable.Even though they know it will be a fight....to the death. 214、The world is filled with unlikely friendships.How do they begin?With one person desperately in need and another willing to lend a helping hand.When such kindness is offered,we're finally able to see the worth of those we had previously written off.And before we know it,a bond has formed,regardless of whether others can understand it.Yes,unlikely friendships start up every day.No one understands this more than the lonely.In fact,it's what they count on.Now and then,we all need a little help,so we ask for small favors.But it's always best to be wary of those eager to come to our rescue.Because even the smallest of favors carries a price tag.Yes,everyone has an agenda.No matter what they may tell us.And in those rare instances where there is no ulterior motive.We're so taken aback that we may fail to recognize the truth that a loving friend has just done us an enormous favor."217、At that precise moment,as Dr.Hanson Mills was cutting yet another umbilical cord,other ties were being severed all over town.Like the one between a child and the mother who didn't want him to grow up so quickly,or the one between a case of fine wine and the housewife who hadn't wanted to admit that she had a problem,or the one between a woman and the boyfriend who couldn't forgive her betrayal.The choice to separate from what we love is painful.The only thing worse is when someone we've trusted makes the choice for us.218、Temptation comes to all of us.Whether or not we succumb depends on our ability to recognize its disguise.Sometimes it arrives in the form of an old flame,flickering back to life. Or a new friend who could end up being so much more.Or a young child who awakens feelings we didn't know we had.And so we give in to temptation,all the while knowing come morning,we'll have to suffer the consequences.219、We've all done something in our lives we're ashamed of.Some of us have fallen for the wrong man.Some have let go of the right woman.There are those who have humiliated their parents and those who have failed their children.Yes,we've all made mistakes that diminish us and those we love.But there is redemption if we try to learn from those mistakes and grow. 220、There is a prayer intended to give strength to people faced with circumstances they don’t want to accept.The power of the prayer comes from it's insight into human nature.Because so many of us rage against the hand that life has dealt us.Because so many of us are cowardly. And afraid to stand up for what is right.Because so many of us give into despair when faced with an impossible choice.The good news for those who utter these words is that God will hear you and answer your prayer.The bad news is that sometimes the answer is no.221、When the truth is ugly,people try to keep it hidden,because they know if revealed,the damage it will do.So they conceal it within sturdy walls or they place it behind closed doors or they obscure it with clever disguises but truth,no matter how ugly,always emerges.And someone we care about always ends up getting hurt.And someone else will revel in their pain and that's the ugliest truth of all.It's a shocking moment for each of us.That moment we realize we are all alone in this world. The family we take for granted could one day abandon us.The husband we trust so implicitly might betray us.The daughter we love so deeply perhaps won’t return to us.And then we could end up all by ourselves.Of course,some see great value in going it alone.For example.. 223-224、This is the street where I used to live,and these were the people with whom I shared my life.I met them the day they moved in.And I saw what they brought with them beautiful dreams for the future.And quiet hopes for a better life,not just for themselves,but for their children, too.If I could,would I tell them what lies ahead?Would I warn them of the sorrow and betrayal that lie in store?No.From where I stand now,I see enough of the road to understand how it must be traveled.The trick is to keep moving forward,to let go of the fear and the regret that slow us down and keep us from enjoying a journey that will be over too soon.Yes, there will be unexpected bends in the road,shocking surprises we didn't see coming,but that's really the point,don't you think?第三季301Every storm brings with it hope that somehow by morning,everything will be made clean again.And even the most troubling stains will have disappeared.Like the doubts over his innocence,or the consequence of his mistake,like the scars of his betrayal,or the memory of his kiss.So we wait for the storm to pass hoping for the best,even though we know in our hearts some stains are so indelible,nothing can wash them away.302Have you met the perfect couple?The two soul mates whose love never dies?The two lovers whose relationship is never threatened.The husband and wife who trust each other completely.If you haven't met the perfect couple,let me introduce you.They stand atop a layer of butter cream frosting.The secret of their success?Well,for starters,they don't have to look at each other.303We all carry something with us.Of course,it's nice if we travel with someone who can help lighten the load.But usually,it's easier to just drop what we've been carrying so we can get home that much sooner.Assuming,of course,there will be someone there to greet us when we arrive.Why do we clutch at this baggage,even when we're desperate to move on?Because we all know there's a chance we might let go too soon.304We all have our reasons for rewriting history.Sometimes we need to provide ourselves alibis. Sometimes we wanna hurt someone who has hurt us,and then there are times we just wanna spare ourselves embarrassment.Of course,there are some who feel that to rewrite history is just another way to lie.But what is history anyway....But a set of lies agree depend?Sabotage,everyone is capable of it.But some go about it more cruelness than the others.Like the ones who create vengeance…Or the ones who hunger for love.Or the ones who were determined to burn bridges.And then there are those who simply wants something…Something that belongs to someone else306There is a place in St.Timothy church where sinners go to confess their sins.And once they are done,they expect absolutionBut the truth is,not all confessions are worthy of such forgiveness.Most who unveil his agendas deserve the condemnation they receive.Most who disclose revengeful motives marry the punishment that follows.Only the truly repentant at any right at all expect a second chance.Were just why it's best to think twice before you confess.Especially if you don’t know what it is you're confessing to.307Sweetie,we can't prevent what can't predict.Isn't there anything I could do?Yes,yes.You can enjoy this beautiful day.We get so few of them.308There are so many things we wish we could tell the youngWe'd like to persuade them not to grow up so fastBut they won't listen.We want to tell them the beauty face but they refuse to believe it.We worn them that their actions will have consequences,but still they defy us.Suddenly the young can began to understand the world is a dangerous place.So it’s up to us to do anything we can to protect themAbsolutely anything309Dangerous men walk among us.And we can’t always be sure who they are or what secret they hide.But once our suspicious are confirmed We can take action.Once their agenda were revealed We can take steps to protect ourselves and those we love.Yes,dangerous men can cause great harm But sometimes the greatest dangerous they pose is to themselves.310There's a reason people can't wait for Christmas,and it has little to do with family reunions. Or curling up with a cup of eggnog.with that unexpected kiss beneath the mistletoe.or receiving a present from a special someone.no,people look forward to Christmas.because they know,it's a time for miracles.312It's a dangerous world.So we all look for protection.And whether we find it in the arms of our mother,or at the end of a jagged blade,or in the kiss of our sweetheart,or at the end of a barrel.We do what we have to feel safe.Because we know somewhere in the world there are those who would do us harm.Yes,it can happen so quickly.Life as we know it can change in the blink of an eye.Unlikely friendships can blossom.Important careers can be tossed aside.A long-lost hope can be rekindled.Still,we should be grateful for whatever changes life throws at us,because all too soon the day will come when there are no changes left.314Recapturing the past is a tricky business.While most memories are simply souvenirs of a happier time,others can be quite deadly.317In every housewife's closet,there's an article of clothing that tells you more about its owner than she would want you to know.It might be a T-shirt that she despises but wears without complaint.Perhaps it's some lingerie,she knows isn't hers,but refuses to discuss...Or a dress she once loved,that she can no longer bear to look at this.You can learn a lot about women from what they choose to wear.You can learn even more by what they choose to take off,and who they take it off for.318It's so easy to spot the lonely ones.They're the people who tell stories to their plants,and whisper secrets to their pets,and have arguments with their TV,and the loneliest of all are the ones who talk to people who are no longer there.Passion.It's a force so potent we still remember it long after it's faded away.A drive so alluring it can push us to the arms of unexpected lovers.A sensation so overwhelming it can knock down walls we built to protect our hearts.A feeling so intense it resurfaces even though we try so hard to keep it buried.Yes,of all emotions,passion is the one that gives us a reason to live and an excuse to commit all sorts of crimes.319Power,it's the type of thing most people don't think about,until it's taken away.Whether it's the political power of the many,or a lover's influence over just one.We all want some sort of power in our lives,if only to give ourselves choices.Yes,to be without choices,to feel utterly powerless,well...it's a lot...like being alone...in the dark.320：Gossip--it's just a harmless form of recreation.It's careless talk that deals in polite fiction.It's nasty speculation that's based on not-so-polite fact.How do we protect ourselves from the venomous sting of such idle gossip?The best way is to just tell the truth.321：Anyone can end up a victim...injured by the actions of others.But whether the damage is inflicted by a cunning ex-wife...or a blow delivered by the object of our affection...the time comes when we must pick ourselves up and continue on our journey.And if we can't,then all we can pray for...is rescue.322：From the moment we wake up in the morning till our head hits the pillow at night our lives are filled with questions.Most are easily answered and soon forgotten，but some questions are much harder to ask because we're so afraid of the answer.Will I be around to watch my children grow up?Am I making a mistake by marrying this man?Could he ever truly love me?And what happens when we ask ourselves the hard question and get the answer we'd been hoping for?Well, that's when happiness begins.323：Family--there is nothing more important.They're the ones who show up when we're in trouble，the ones who push us to succeed，the ones who help keep our secrets.But what of those who have no family to rely on?What happens to those poor souls...who have no loved ones to help them in their hour of need?Well...most learn to walk life's road by themselves. But a sad few of us...simply...stop trying.第四季4-01There is a certain time of night,after children have been put to bed and husbands have begun snoring,that women lie awake and think of the secrets they've been keeping from their friends.It might be an impromptu wedding,or a recently diagnosed tumor,or a make-believe pregnancy.Regardless,it's all they will think of,until something comes along to remind them that other people have secrets,too.There is a certain time of morning.It occurs after kids have left for school and husbands have headed off for work.It's a time when women think of the secrets they've been keeping from their friends.And how shocked they would be if the truth was discovered.And how they'll do everything in their power to keep that from happening.But what of those lucky women who have no secrets left to keep?What do they think about every morning?These women spend their mornings thinking of their neighbors and the secrets they may be keeping.4-02You will never see despair here...or rage.You will never see the tiniest bit of regret.You see, the people who live here have learned there is-one sure way of hiding their secrets from their neighbors.That's why,in the suburbs,there is nothing more deceptive than a smile. There is nothing more deceptive than a smile,and no one knows this better than the people who hide behind them.Some flash their teeth as a polite warning to their enemies.Some put on beaming faces to keep their tears from falling.Others wear silly grins to mask their fear. But then there is that rare smile that is actually genuine.It's the smile of a person who knows his troubles will soon be over.All children love to play games.But before they can race their bikes or jump their ropes or toss their Frisbees,children understand they must first convince their friends to play along with them.The same is true for adults.All children love games.But children grow up,and then they find new games to play.They pretend to be well so their families won't worry.They lie to their lovers about where they go in the afternoon.They invent stories to hide the truth from their friends.Yes...everyone has fun playing games right up until the moment...someone gets hurt.4-04Pests,they come in all shapes and sizes and disrupt our lives in a variety of ways.At first, they're merely annoying,and we do our best to ignore them.But if we don't take them seriously,they can become quite dangerous.For some,death seems to be the easiest solution. But the problem with pests is that what they leave behind...is just as dangerous.4-05It's the same for all of us.We try not to get too close to the people who live next door.It's easier to give them a polite nod than to ask what's wrong.It's safer to keep walking by than to get involved.True,we sometimes do get to know the people we share a fence with and end up lifelong friends.But mostly,we keep our distance,because we'd rather our neighbors Know nothing about us...than know too much.4-06There is much to be afraid of in this world.But what we fear has nothing to do with gruesome masks,or plastic spiders,or lifelike monsters.No,it's the thoughts in our head,that terrify us the most...What if she comes to regret her decision?What if he really is unhappy? What if the chance for love has passed forever?How do we conquer these terrifying thoughts? We start by reminding ourselves what does not kill us...just makes us stronger.4-07Deception,you find it in all the best homes.Parents rely on it when dealing with inquisitive children.Women use it to help keep secrets,big and small.Lovers needed it to cover up inconvenient accidents.Why do people resort to deception?Because it's a handy tool that helps get us exactly what we're looking for.4-08We think of the past as water under the bridge,a current that carries away the mistakes of our youth---the loves we lost...the addictions we gave into...the opportunities we threw away...But sooner or later,reminders drift back into our lives of the mistakes we made and the sins we committed.Yes,the mistakes of our past have a way of drifting back into our lives, and when they do,we have to pay for them.The past is never truly behind us.Ghosts lurk in the shadows,eager to remind us of the choices we made.But if we look back,we might find an old friend with open arms...or an old enemy with a hidden agenda...or a grown-up son with a forgiving heart...Sadly,some of us refuse to look back,never understanding that by denying the past,we are condemned to repeat it.。
《Desperate Housewives》第1季1-01The next day my friends came together to pack away my clothes, my personal belongings and what was left of my life. Not quite Gabrielle, not quite. How ironic。
To have something I tried so desperately to keep secret treated so causally。
I'm so sorry, girls。
I never wanted you to burden with this。
第二天我的朋友们都来帮我收拾衣服，私人物品还有――我剩下的那些东西。
远不只这些Gabrielle，远不只。
多么讽刺，我拼命努力想要保守的秘密就这样随便的被她们发现了。
对不起，姐妹们。
我绝对不想让你们承受这种负担。
1-02Yes, as I look back at the world I left behind， it's all so clear to me. The beauty that waits to be unveiled， the mysteries that long to be uncovered。
But, people so rarely stop to take a look。
They just keep moving。
It's a shame， really。
There’s so much to see.是的，当我回头看我身后的世界,它变得如此清晰。
那么多期待闪亮登场的美丽，那么多渴望不被发现的秘密。
但人们很少停下脚步去观察，他们只是一路前行。
这真的很可惜.1-03Yes I remember the world. Every detail。

Cars are driving by, peopleare taking walks and pushing baby carriages while saying hello to each other.Focus on house where a woman steps outside, carrying a basket of flowers. Her voice is the one in the voiceover."My name is Mary Alice Young. When you read this morning's paper, you may come across an article about the unusual day I had last week.Normally, there is never anything newsworthy about my life. But that all changed last Thursday."As she talks, we see snippets of what she's describing."Of course, everything seemed quite normal at first. I madebreakfast for my family. I performed my chores. I completed myprojects. I ran my errands. In truth, I spent the day as I spentevery other day, quietly polishing the routine of my life. Until it gleamed with perfection. That's why it was so astonishing whenI decided to go to my hallway closet and retrieve a revolver thathad never been used."Mary Alice holds the gun to her head and pulls the trigger. The gun goes off and in the reflection of a mirror, Mary Alice falls to the floor.A woman reaches down into a pile of red, blood-like liquid, dips her fingerinto it, and raises it to her lips to taste it, then turns to look out her window when she hears the shot. The voiceover continues."My body was discovered by my neighbor, Mrs. Martha Huber, who had been startled by a strange popping sound. Her curiosity aroused, Mrs. Huber tried to think of a reason for dropping in on meunannounced."Mrs. Huber goes to her hallway closet and removes a blender that has a label on it reading "Property of Mary Alice Young"She leaves her house and hurries over next door."After some initial hesitation, she decided to return the blender she borrowed six months before."Mrs. Huber goes to the front door and rings the bell, waits, then rings it again. She then goes around the house and peeks through a window. Seeing the body on the floor, she screams and rushes back to her house to call 911."It's my neighbor. I think she's been shot. There's blood everywhere!Yes, you've got to send an ambulance. You've got to send one right now!"She hangs up."And for a moment, Mrs.Huber stood motionless inher kitchen, grief-strickenby this senseless tragedy.But only for a moment."Mrs. Huber turns to look at the blender with its label firmly attached."And if there's one thing Mrs. Huber was known for..."Mrs. Huber tears off the label on the blender."...it was her ability to look on the bright side."She puts the blender back in the closet.M any people go to Mary Alice Young's house, dressed solemnly."I was laid to rest on Monday. After the funeral, all the residents of Wisteria Lane came to pay their respects. And as people do in these situations, they brought food. Lynette Scavo brought fried chicken."Lynette, caring a large platter of chicken, looks drawn and tired."Lynette had a great family recipe for fried chicken. Of course, she didn't cook much while she was climbing up the corporateladder."Flashback to Lynette in a boardroom, giving a presentation to a group of people."She didn't have the time. But when her doctor announced Lynette was pregnant..."Flashback to Lynette in her doctor's office, getting the ultrasound. Lynette is grinning, obviously excited."...her husband, Tom, had an idea. 'Why not quit your job? Kids do better with stay at home moms. It would be so much less stressful.'" Lynette hesitantly nods her agreement at him, her smile gone.Present time, Lynette continues walking down the sidewalk, holding the chicken platter and pushing a stroller. As she walks, her other three children, all little boys, two of whom are twins, walk in front of the stroller, the twins pushing each other as they walk."But this was not the case. In fact, Lynette's life had become so hectic, she was now forced to get her fried chicken from a fast food restaurant. Lynette would have appreciated the irony if she hadstopped to think about it."Lynette tries to break up her children's fight as it gets more physical. She kneels down in front of them, angry."Listen to me. You are going to behave today. I will not going to be humiliated in front of the entire neighborhood. And, just so you know how serious I am..." [she pulls a piece of paper out of her jacket].One of her boys asks, "What'sthat?"Lynette: "Santa's cellphone number."Twin: "How'd you get that?"Lynette: "I know someone whoknows someone who knows anelf. And if any of you actsup, so help me, I will call Santa and tell him you want socks for Christmas. Are you willing to risk that?"They shake their heads no.She straights up. "All right, let's get this over with."The camera pans to a Hispanic man in a suit, standing outside of a beautiful house. He turns to watch his gorgeous wife hurry down the steps to meet him."Gabrielle Solis, who lives down the block, brought a spicy paella."Flashback to Gabrielle when she was younger, walking down the runway as a fashion model."Since her modeling days in New York, Gabrielle had developed ataste for rich food and rich men."Flashback to a restaurant, where Gabrielle and the man are having dinner."Carlos, who worked in mergers and acquisitions, proposed on their third date. Gabrielle was touched when tears welled up in his eyes.But she soon discovered that this happened every time Carlos closeda big deal."Present time, where Gabrielle joins Carlos as he waits for her."Gabrielle liked her paella piping hot. However, her relationship with her husband was considerably cooler."Carlos and Gabrielle walk down the street. Carlos tells Gabrielle that if she talks with Mason at the wake, she's to casually mention to him how much he paid for her necklace.Gabrielle retorts "Why don't I just pin the receipt to my chest?"Carlos explains that Mason let him know how much he had paid for his wife's convertible. He tells her to just work it into the conversation. Gabrielle says she can't just work it in.Carlos: "Why not? At theDonahue party, everyone wastalking mutual funds and youfound a way to mention youslept with half of theYankee outfielders."Gabrielle: "I'm telling you,it came up in the context ofthe conversation."Carlos: "Hey! People are starting to stare. Can you keep your voice down?"Gabrielle: "Absolutely. Wouldn't want people to think we're nothappy."T he door to the Young's house opens to show a well-groomed woman standingoutside with her husband, son, and daughter. She's holding two baskets full of baked goods."Bree Van De Kamp, who lives next door, brought baskets of muffins she baked from scratch. Bree was known for her cooking, and formaking her own clothes, and for doing her own gardening, and for re-upholstering her own furniture. Yes, Bree's many talents were known throughout the neighborhood. And everyone on Wisteria Lane thought of Bree as the perfect wife and mother. Everyone, that is, except her own family."Bree walks in, with her husband and children following behind her.She goes up to Paul and Zachary Young to offer her condolences. They tell her that she didn't need to go through so much trouble, and she says that it was no trouble at all.She explains that one of the baskets is for the guests and the other is just for Paul and Zachary and those are "breakfast type things." As she talks, her family silently looks at each other. She hands Paul and Zachary the muffins and reminds them that she will need the baskets back. Behind her, her husband briefly closes his eyes.A woman leaves her house with her teenage daughter. She's carrying acasserole dish with aluminum foil covering it. The foil comes off the dish and the woman has to grab it before it flies away."Susan Mayer, who lives across the street, brought macaroni and cheese. Her husband Carl, always teased her, saying it was the only thing she knew how to cook, and she rarely made it well. It was too salty the night she and Carl moved into their house. It was too watery the night she found lipstick on Carl's shirt. She burned it the night Carl told her he was leaving her for his secretary." Flashback to Carl leaving the house with suitcases as Susan and her daughter sit at the kitchen table, a macaroni and cheese dinner in front of them. Susan begins to cry. Her daughter leans over and pats her mother's arm.In present time, Susan and her daughter leave their house and begin walking towards the Young's house."A year had passed since the divorce. Susan had started to think how nice it would be to have a man in her life, even one who would make fun of her cooking."As they walk, Susan's daughter asks, "Mom, why would someone kill themselves?"Susan: "Well, sometimes people are so unhappy, they think that's the only way they can solve their problems. "Julie: "But Mrs. Young always seemed happy."Susan: "Yeah. But sometimes, people pretend to be one way on theoutside, when they're totally different on the inside."Julie: "Oh, you mean like how dad's girlfriend is always smiling and says nice things, but deep down, you just know she's a bitch?"Susan: "I don't like that word, Julie. But yeah, that's a greatexample."They reach the house and go inside. Susan puts the macaroni and cheese on the table with the other food. She heads to the kitchen where the other three women are sitting. They say hello. Susan looks at Mary Alice's chair and then picks up the coffee to pour herself a cup.Flashback to when all five of the women were drinking coffee together at that table when Susan's husband left her.Mary Alice: "So what did Carl say when you confronted him?"Susan: "You'll love this. He said, it doesn't mean anything. It was just sex."The women all scoff. She continues. "And then he got this Zen look on his face and said, you know, Susan, most men live lives of quiet desperation."Lynette: "Please tell me you punched him."Susan: "No, I said, really? And what do most women lead? Lives of noisy fulfillment?"The women offer support.Susan: "I mean, of all people, did he have to bang his secretary?I had that woman over for brunch."Gabrielle: "It's like my grandmother always said. An erect penis doesn't have a conscious."Lynette: "Even limp ones aren't all that ethical."Bree joins in, saying that that's the reason she joined the NRA."When Rex started going to those medical conferences, I wanted it in the back of his mind that he had a loving wife at home with a loaded Smith & Wesson."They laugh.Mary Alice asks Lynette if she's worried about her husband, since he's always away on business. Lynette says that he's gotten her pregnant three times in four years. "I wish he was having sex with someone else."They ask Susan if he'll stop seeingthe woman and she says she doesn'tknow.Susan: "I just don't knowhow I'm going to survivethis."Mary Alice: "Listen to me.We all have moments ofdesperation. But if we facethem head on, that's when we find out just how strong we really are."Susan puts her hand on Mary Alice's.In present time, Bree interrupts Susan's memories, saying that Paul wants them to come over on Friday to go through Mary Alice's closet and pack up her things, as he can't face doing it himself. Susan agrees. Bree asks if she's okay. Susan tells her "I'm just so angry. If Mary Alice was having problems, she should have come to us. She should have let us help her."Gabrielle asks what problems she could have had. "She was healthy, had a great home, a nice family. Her life was - "Lynette interrupts. "Our life." They're all quiet.Gabrielle says that if Mary Alice had been having problems, they would have known, because she only lives 50 feet away. Susan tells her, "Gabby, the woman killed herself. Something must have been going on."Off to the side, unbeknownst to the women, Paul Young listens to their conversation, grim-faced. He takes a sip of his drink.L ater, at the buffet, Susan comes up to a man putting some macaroni andcheese on his plate. She tells him not to eat it. He asks her why. She replies with "I made it, trust me." He starts to take a bite and she stops him. "Hey, hey, do you have a death wish?" He answers with "No, I just refuse to believe that anybody can screw up macaroni and cheese."He puts some in his mouth and Susan looks apologetic as she holds up her hands as though to say that she warned him.He starts to chew, then stops."Oh my god. How did you - it tastes like it's burnt and undercooked.""Yeah, I get that a lot."She takes a napkin and has him spit the food into it.He thanks her, then introduces himself as Mike Delfino. He says that he's renting the Sims house. She introduces herself and he says that he heard about her from Mrs. Huber, and that he heard that she illustrates children's books."Yeah, I'm very big with the under five set."She laughs at her own joke and he chuckles. She asks what he does and he tells her that he's a plumber. "So if you ever have a clog.. or something" They smile and she looks away. She looks at the mac and cheese. "Now that everybody's seen that I've brought something, I should probably just throw this out." She picks up the mac and cheese as he watches her.Across the room, Julie looks on, interested.She walks away and he watches her go. She turnsaround as she walks, and he smiles at her. Shesmiles back.Mrs. Huber finds Lynette as she's breast feedingher infant. Lynette tells her child "Ease up,little vampire."Mrs. Huber says that she's been looking for her. "Are you aware of what your sons are doing?"Her boys are swimming in the Young's swimming pool. Lynette comes rushing down to the pool. Looking around at everybody, she then leans down. "What are you doing? We are at a wake!"Her boys say that she told them they could go in the pool. She clarifies that she told them they could go by the pool. She asks if they have their swimsuits on. They say that they put them on before they left. Lynette's furious. "You three planned this?" She picks up their clothing and tells them to get out. They refuse. She tells them "I am your mother. You have to do as I say." They tell her that she can't stop them from swimming.Lynette looks around and sees everybody watching her. She then looks at her boys, who have their arms crossed as they glare at her.She makes a decision and hands her baby to the priest. She then wades into the pool, fully clothed. They start to swim away, but she grabs them anyway. Susan, watching from the side, looks embarrassed for her.Lynette drags her children out, takes back her baby, and tells Paul that they have to leave. "Once again, I am so sorry for your loss."She leaves with her children."Lynette shouldn't have been so concerned about my husband. He had other things on his mind. Things below the surface."Paul looks down in the depths of the pool."T he morning after my funeral, my friends and neighbors quietly went back to their busy, busy lives."Lynette's children are throwing cereal everywhere while she tries to calm them."While some did their cooking, and some did their cleaning..."Bree cleans toilet, furiously."...and some did their yoga..."Gabrielle quietly does yoga on her front porch."...others did their homework."A soccer ball is kicked over Mike Delfino's house into his backyard.The doorbell rings at Mike's house. Julie is shown to have rung it. Mike answers the door as his dog barks and Mike bends down to hold onto its collar."Hi. I'm Julie. I kicked my soccer ball into your backyard.""Okay, well, let's go around and go get it."He walks outside with her, telling his dog to stay.L ater that day, Julie, tossing the soccer ball in her hands, talks to her mom."His wife died a year ago. He wanted to stay in L.A., but there were too many memories. He's renting for tax purposes, but he hopes to buy a place real soon."Susan tells her daughter that she can't believe she went over there. Julie replies that she saw them flirting at the wake."You're obviously into each other. Now that you know he's single, you can ask him out."Susan says that she likes him, but she doesn't know if she's ready to start dating again. Julie says that she needs to get out there. She asks her mom, "how long has it been since you've had sex?"Susan stops what she's doing and looks at her daughter."Are you mad that I asked youthat?""No, I'm just trying toremember. I don't want totalk to you about my lovelife anymore. It weirds meout."Julie says that she wouldn't havesaid anything, except that sheheard her dad's girlfriend ask if Susan has dated anyone since the divorce and "dad said he doubted it. And then they both laughed." Susan stares at her daughter, silent and shocked.S usan walks determinedly down the street to Mike's house. In her hands,she carries a small house plant. When she reaches his place, she rings the bell.He opens the door."Hey, Susan.""Hi, Mike. I brought you a house warming gift."She says that she should have come by earlier. He says that she's the first in the neighborhood to stop by. She's happily surprised. "Really!""Susan knew she was lucky. An eligible bachelor had moved ontoWisteria Lane and she was the first to find out. But she also know that good news... "Edie Britt calls out, Hello there! as she comes up to join Susan and Mike on the porch."...travels quickly. Edie Britt was the most predatory divorcee ina 5-block radius."Scenes of Edie are shown as she seduces a plumber, then a tennis instructor, and then a priest."Her conquests were numerous. Varied. And legendary."Edie has a covered dish in her hands as she bounds up the porch, says hi to Susan, and then introduces herself to Mike. Susan watches as they shake hands."Susan had met the enemy and she was a slut."Mike takes the food and thanks her."What's this?""Sausage putinesca. Just something I threw together."Susan gives her a knowing look. Mike thanks her."That's great. I'd invite you both in, but I was sort of in the middle of something."They both protest that it's no problem, they had to go anyway."And just like that, the race for Mike Delfino had begun."The two woman walk away together, with Mike watching them while still holding the housewarming gifts."For a moment, Susan wondered if her rivalry with Edie would remain friendly."Edie turns around to face Mike. "Oh, Mike! I heard you're a plumber?""But she was reminded that when it came to men..."Edit continues. "Do you think you could stop by later tonight and take a look at my pipes?""...women don't fightfair."Mike answers her. "Sure."Susan sighs. She and Edie continuewalking.Edie: "Bye, Susan."Susan: "Hmm."They separate.A t Gabrielle and Carlos's house, Gabrielle is shouting that Carlos can't order her around. She tells him that she's not going.Carlos: "It's business. Tanaka expects everyone to bring theirwives."Gabrielle: "Every time I'm around that man, he tries to grab my ass."Carlos: "I made over $200,000 with him last week. If he wants to grab your ass, you let him."He walks away from her, out of the house.He sees the 16-year-old gardener, John, and calls his name. John is startled and cuts his finger. Carlos asks him why a bush is still there, since John was supposed to get rid of it last week. John says he didn't have time. Carlos says that he doesn't want to hear any more excuses. Just get rid of it.Gabrielle comes out of the house and tells Carlos that she hates the way that he talks to her. He replies with "and I really hate that I spent $50,000 on a diamond necklace that you couldn't live without. But I've learned to deal with it. So, can I tell Tanaka we'll be there tomorrow night?"Before answering him, Gabrielle turns to John and tells him that they have bandages in the kitchen. He goes inside.Gabrielle tells Carlos that she'll go, but "I'm keeping my back pressed against the wall the entire time." Carlos backs away, smiling as he walks. "See? Now this is what a marriage is all about. Compromise."In the kitchen, John puts on a band-aid. Gabrielle asks him if his finger is okay. He says yes, it was just a small cut. She asks to look at it. She holds his finger up to her eye level and then kisses the band-aid that's wrapped around it. Then she starts licking his finger, and before long, they start kissing each other.John backs away after a couple of seconds, telling her "I really like it when we hook up, but I just gotta get my work done. I can't afford to lose this...job, and..."He watches as she takes off her shirt and leans back seductively on a table in the kitchen.She tells him that the table she's sitting on is hand carved and it's imported from Italy.Gabrielle: "It cost him $23,000."John [chuckles] "So you wanna do it on the table this time?"Gabrielle: "Absolutely."She pulls off his shirt and they lean back together onto the table, kissing.D inner time at Bree's house.Aside from some soft classical music in the background, the only sound is the clinking of silverware on the plates. Danielle and Andrew are picking at the food. Danielle asks her why they can't ever have normal soup. Bree smiles and responds "Danielle, there is nothing abnormal about basil puree." Danielle asks if they can't, just once, have a soup that somebody's heard of, like french onion, or navy bean.Bree: "First of all, your father can't eat onions. He's deathly allergic."She looks at her husband, who's slowly eating, his eyes averted.Bree: "And I won't even dignify your navy bean suggestion." [She turns to Andrew] "So, how's the osso buco?"Andrew: "It's okay."Bree: "It's okay? Andrew, I spent three hours cooking this meal.How do you think it makes me feel when you say it's okay in that sullen tone?"Andrew: "Who asked you to spend three hours on dinner?"Bree [shocked]: "Excuse me?"Her husband looks down at hisplate.Andrew: "Tim Harper's momgets home from work, popsopen a can of pork and beans,and boom, they're eating.Everyone's happy."Bree: "You'd rather I servepork and beans?"Danielle turns to her brother. "Apologize now, I am begging you."Andrew: "I'm saying, do you always have to serve cuisine? Can't we just have food?Bree: "Are you doing drugs?"Andrew: "What?"Bree: "Change in behavior is one of the warning signs and you have been fresh as paint over the last six months. That would explain why you're always locked in the bathroom."Danielle: "Trust me, that is not what he is doing."Andrew: "Shut up."He tells his mom that he doesn't have a problem and that she acts like she's running for mayor of Stepford. Bree looks to Rex for support."Rex. Seeing that you're the head of this household, I would really appreciate you saying something.""Pass the salt."A t a grocery store."Three days after my funeral, Lynette replaced her grief with a much more useful emotion. Indignation."Lynette is on the phone to Tom's voice mail while shopping. She says in her message that it's the fifth time she's left a message and he still hasn't called her back."Well, you must be having a lot of fun on your business trip. I can only imagine. Well, guess what, the kids and I want to have some fun, too, so unless you call me back by noon, we are getting on a plane and joining you."As she's talking, the twins grab a cart and race off. Her third boy watches them go and tries to get Lynette's attention. Lynette tells him "Not now, Mommy's threatening Daddy." Suddenly, she notices that the twins are gone.They're walking down an aisle, throwing tons of food into the cart.Lynette goes off searching for them and runs into Natalie Kline, awell-dressed woman. Lynette mutters "crap" when Natalie recognizes her, but then smiles at her. They make small talk. Lynette asks how the firm is doing, and Natalie tells her that everyone misses her. "We all say that if you hadn't quit, you'd be running the place by now. So. How's domestic life? Don't you just love being a mom?""And there it was. The question that Lynette always dreaded."Lynette: "Well, to be honest...""For those who asked it, only one answer was acceptable. So Lynette responded as she always did. She lied."Lynette: "It's the best job I've ever had."Behind her, near the check out lanes, her boys run the cart into an older woman, who trips and falls down. Lynette closes her eyes.O utside of Gabrielle and Carlos'sbedroom, a school bus goes by. Johnand Gabrielle are in bed, withGabrielle smoking. John asks herwhy she married Carlos.Gabrielle: "Well, he promised togive me everything I've ever wanted."John: "And did he?"Gabrielle: "Yes."。
第一季101The next day my friends came together to pack away my clothes, my personal belongings and what was left of my life. Not quite Gabrielle, not quite. How ironic. To have something I tried so desperately to keep secret treat ed so causally. I'm so sorry, girls. I never wanted you to burden with this.第二天我的朋友们都来帮我收拾衣服，私人物品还有――我剩下的那些东西。
远不只这些Gabrielle，远不只。
多么讽刺，我拼命努力想要保守的秘密就这样随便的被她们发现了。
对不起，姐妹们。
我绝对不想让你们承受这种负担。
102.An odd thing happens when we die. Our senses vanish. Taste, touch, smell, and sound become a distant memory, but our sight --ah, our sight expands, and we can suddenly see the world we've left behind so clearly. Of course, most of what's visible to the dead could also be seen by the living, if they only take the time to look.我们死去以后就会有奇怪的事情发生，我们的感觉消失了，味觉、触觉和听觉都成为遥远的回忆，但是我们的视觉，它变得开阔了。

绝望主妇第一季结束语Desperate Housewives Season 11-01Once some things are said...You can't take them back.The damage is already done.话一旦说了出去，你就没办法收回来。
因为后果已经产生了。
1-02Yes , As I look back the world I left behind, it all so clear to me, the beauty that wait to be unwilled , the mystery that long uncovered , but people so rarely stop to take a look, they just keep moving, it's the shame really , there are so much to seeing .是的, 当我回头看看身后这个世界时, 一切都如此的清晰. 等待被发现的美丽. 和等待被揭开的神秘. 但人们很少会停下来看上一眼. 他们只是不停地往前走. 这真的很遗憾, 有那么多值得一看的东西.1-03Yes I remember the world every detail , and what I remember most is how afraid I was , what a waste , you see , to live in fear, is not to live at all. I wish I could tell this who those I leave behind ,but it would do any good? Probably not, I understand know, there will be always who face their fears , and there always be those who run away。
My name is Mary Alice Young.In this morning's paper, you may come across an article about the unusual day I had last week. Normally, there's never anything newsworthy about my life, but that all changed last Thursday. Of course, everything seemed quite normal at first.I made breakfast for my family.I performed my chores.I completed my projects.I ran my errands.In truth, I spent the day as I spent every other day, quietly polishing the routine of my life until it gleamed with perfection.That's why it was so astonishing when I decided to go to my hallway closet and retrieve a revolver that had never been used.My body was discovered by my neighbor, Mrs.Martha Huber, who'd been startled by a strange popping sound.Her curiosity aroused, Mrs.Huber tried to think of a reason for dropping in on me unannounced.After some initial hesitation, she decided to return the blender she had borrowed from me six months before.[Screeams] It's my neeighbor.I think shee's beeeen shot.Theeree's blood eeveerywheeree.Yees, you'vee got to seend an ambulancee.You'vee got to seend onee right now.And, for a moment, Mrs.Huber stood motionless in her kitchen, grief-stricken by this senseless tragedy. But only for a moment.If there was one thing Mrs.Huber was known for, it was her ability to look on the bright side.I was laid to rest on a Monday.After the funeral, all the residents of Wisteria Lane came to pay their respects. And, as people do in these situations, they brought food.Lynette Scavo brought fried chicken.Lynette had a great family recipe for fried chicken.She didn't cook much while moving up the corporate ladder.She didn't have the time.But when her doctor announced she was pregnant, her husband Tom had an idea."Why not quit yourjob?" "Kids do better with stay-at-home moms.It would be so much less stressful." But this was not the case.In fact, Lynette's life had become so hectic she was now forced to get her chicken from the fast-food restaurant.Lynette would've appreciated the irony if she'd thought about it.But she didn't have the time.- Stop it, stop it, stop it.- But, Mom.No.You aree going to beehavee today.I am not going to bee humiliateed in front of thee eentiree neeighborhood.And, just so you know how seerious I am - What's that? - Santa's ceell-phonee numbeer. How did you geet that? I know someeonee who knows someeonee who knows an eelf. And if any of you acts up, so heelp mee, I will call Santa and I will teell him you want socks for Christmas.Aree you willing to risk that? OK.Leet's geet this oveer with.Gabrielle Solis who lives down the block brought a spicy paella.Since her modeling days in New York, Gabrielle had developed a taste for rich food and rich men. Carlos, who worked in mergers and acquisitions, proposed on their third date.Gabrielle was touched when tears welled up in his eyes.But she soon discovered this happened every time Carlos closed a big deal. Gabrielle liked her paella piping hot.However, her relationship with her husband was considerably cooler.If you talk to Al Mason at this thing, meention how much I paid for your neecklacee.Why not pin thee reeceeipt to my cheest? Hee leet mee know what hee paid for his wifee's conveertiblee.- Just work it in.- Theeree's no way I can.Why not? At thee Donahuee party eeveeryonee was talking mutual funds.You meentioneed you sleept with half thee Yankeeee outfieeld.It camee up in thee conteext of thee conveersation.Peeoplee aree staring.Keeeep your voicee down.Absoluteely.Wee wouldn't want theem to think wee'ree not happy.Bree Van De Kamp, who lives next door, brought baskets of muffins she baked from scratch. Bree was known for her cooking.And for making her own clothes.And for doing her own gardening.And for re-upholstering her own furniture.Yes, Bree's many talents were known throughout the neighborhood.Everyone on Wisteria Lane thought of Bree as the perfect wife and mother. Everyone, that is, except her own family.Paul. Zachary.- Heello, Mrs.Van Dee Kamp.- You shouldn't havee.It was no troublee.Thee baskeet with thee reed ribbon is for your gueests.Thee onee with thee bluee ribbon is just for you and Zachary.It's got rolls, muffins, breeakfast typee things.Thank you.Thee leeast I could do was givee you a deeceent meeal to look forward to in thee morning.I know you'ree out of your minds with grieef.Yees, wee aree.I will neeeed thee baskeets back oncee you'ree donee.Of coursee.Susan Mayer, who lives across the street, brought macaroni and cheese.Her husband, Karl, always teased her about her macaroni, saying it was the only thing she knew how to cook and she rarely made it well.It was too salty the night she and Karl moved into their house.It was too watery the night she found lipstick on Karl's shirt.She burned it the night Karl told her he was leaving her for his secretary.A year had passed since the divorce.Susan had started to think how nice it would be to have a man in her life.Even one who would make fun of her cooking.Mom, why would someeonee kill theemseelvees? Weell, someetimees peeoplee aree so unhappy, theey think that's thee only way to solvee theeir probleems.- Mrs.Young always seeeemeed happy.- Yeeah.Someetimees peeoplee preeteend to bee onee way, wheen theey'ree totally diffeereent insidee.
