Trick or Treat?
November 5, 2007 Jessica Tripp
Here is your link. Its Television without Pity again. They point out quite a few things in their summaries that even I missed.
Everything in this episode seems to be a bit of trick and a bit of treat. The biggest event is the birth of Danielle’s baby, who for now we will call baby boy Hodge. Bri finally gets her second chance and gets to stop wearing the fake belly, and Danielle gets to come out of hiding. Also, Danielle finally shows that she has feelings for someone other than herself, crying over her lost child. Hopefully those feelings don’t lead to problems later, because I honestly feel good about Danielle for the first time since first season.
But because of Danielle’s timing of delivery and her coming to the party, there are now more and more chances of the secret coming out. The main one is Adam. He did keep the secret all that time, since he seemed to know, but maybe he was just waiting for the opportune moment to use it.
Susan and Mike are having problems already. With the plot device of the genetics appointment, Mike’s secret father in the prison is discovered. And after talking to him, Susan decides that he could be a sociopath. Then the sociopath father tells her that Mike might be a sociopath or broken too. And Mike is taking pills secretly in his truck, and hiding them somewhere no more inventive than the glove compartment. So while they have made advancements as a couple with the baby and less secrets, Cherry exposes so many more that spell DISASTER!!
Lynette is finally over her cancer. And she is crying. I am very glad Cherry touched on this part of being a survivor. The feeling she has is that the cancer has been a part of her for so long, she almost feels bad killing it to save herself. Either that or she feels sorry for the possum and I am reading too much into this.
And Victor is being dumped by Gabi. At first I thought that meant she was going back to Carlos. Then the phone call to Susan made me think she was going away to consider her life and who she wanted, which would be a good idea for her. Then Victor shows up in her limo to try to get her back, and then he finds out about the cheating. And that blank look on his face leaves it up to anyone’s guess what he is planning to do about it. But the next week on makes me think it has something to do with a boat….
Funniest line
“Now, now baby Hodge. We don’t kick people, unless they’re servants.”
