With Lynette being pregnant she is increasing in other places besides her belly. Carlos confronts her and tells her he knows her secret. He tells her that she should try and convince Gabby to do the same thing. Lynette finally realizes that Carlos is talking about her breasts and not her pregnancy. Carlos gives Lynette his credit card to buy a dress for a dinner with clients. Lynette asks Tom why men are so appreciative of breasts. Tom admits to being a breast man and Lynette wants to know why he settled for her. He responds by saying that Lynette needed one flaw or he would wonder what she was doing with him.
Bree sees Katherine spying on Mike and Susan and confronts Katherine about it. Katherine doesn’t see why it is an issue and tells Bree that it is only a matter of time before Mike and Susan are over. Bree gives Katherine three weeks sick leave to get herself together. Katherine comes back from her sick leave earlier than expected and sees that the cake that she designed for her wedding to Mike is at another couple’s wedding. She tries to destroy the cake stating that it’s bad enough that she saw the man she loves marry someone else but she will not stand by and see “her” cake at someone elses wedding. Bree fires Katherine and tells her to get counseling. Katherine’s response is to key Bree’s car.
Gabby pays a visit to John at the restaurant. John asks Gabby what’s up and she replies with, “If my niece has anything to say about it – her skirt.”. John admits that he is just flirting with Anna to see if Gabby would get jealous. Gabby tells John that she is not jealous. John wants to rescue Gabby from her life and then kisses Gabby – at the same exact time that Anna walks in to the restaurant. Gabby confesses to Anna that she had an affair with John ten years ago and asks her not to tell Carlos what she saw because it didn’t mean anything.
Gabby begins to question her life and sometimes it feels so small. She admits to Carlos that she likes her life and tells him how happy she is – so happy that she gives John the photo of the two of them that she was staring and it’s ripped in half.
