First of all, I need to apologize for dropping off the face of the planet after summarizing the first episode, and not even giving you anything on the second or third yet.

Second, I need to announce that there will be no more summaries. At least not from me. I will attach a link to a summary for those of you who missed the episode, but these posts will from now on be for discussion.

So, as the writer of the summary said, the second episode was completely about moving the plot forward. Not too many new developments here.

Kathryn confirms she has a secret when she slaps Dylan. Still not too many hints about what it is, but I think the viewers can be pretty sure it has to do with Dylan’s dad. Why would Katheryn slap her if not because she got too close to the truth?

The entire scene with Susan and Julie at the party seems to be mostly for comedy. And it was pretty funny to see a bunch of teen-aged boys mistake Susan for a stripper. Makes you feel kind of sorry for Julie though. First her mom is the one to discover her boyfriend cheating, then she starts bursting in on parties dressed like that!

Although it was a nice bit of character development to see Julie be honest and upstage the lying Susan in front of Mike. Maybe now that Susan is married again and pregnant, she might start acting like an adult instead of a teenager?

The interlude between Gaby and Lynette was nice and heartfelt and all, and it was nice to get into my favorite character’s past a bit. Gives Gaby some depth to know that her constant fake smiles were drilled into her from childhood. Props to Mike Cherry for that!

And honestly, I hope that Carlos is hiring an assassin for Edie. It would be a fun bit of drama, and she is seriously ticking me off!
