(S02E21) Alright, I think we're on a roll here. It's too bad we had to wait until the last few episodes of the season for things to really get good. So far this season has felt like an Oreo cookie with a turd for filling. I'm just hoping the second cookie remains as good as the first one.
First up, the Applewhites. It seemed like a very obvious way for things to turn out, with Caleb telling Betty what he was told to do. I'd actually thought that maybe Betty knew Matthew was in on the whole thing and was bluffing killing Caleb. Now we see she clearly is nuts, and I can see Matthew may have to take drastic measures against his mom very soon.

There was something odd about tonight's episode. Did you notice a complete lack of several
key people? Tom Scavo? Any of the Applewhites? I realize there are contracts to stay in line with, but it just seemed

Carlos's quest for a baby. Zach and his impending relationship with his biological father, Mike.
One question

We interrupt our regularly
scheduled review by Sarah for one from me this week. I'm a regular watcher of the show, though I hope I don't
disappoint.
This week's theme: unlikely friendships. This show has always done an amazing job of starting
us off on a theme by the familiar narrator, wrapping the episode up with a short montage of those very themes affecting
the people of Wysteria Lane. Some great stuff involving the overall "mystery" of the season, more Mike Delfino
issues and the usual Susan bumblings.
