Well I felt this episode of “Housewives” was definitely much better than the last few. I’m glad the cops finally discussed how they had no motive for Bree, and no connection between her and the dead guy. However Vance’s old partner seems determined to pin this on Bree, and she’s determined to take the blame for her friends . . . hoping it will all be dropped when it comes out there is no case to be made. However when the one cop tampered with evidence, it looked bad for Bree. The cop blatantly wrote Bree’s address on a map found in Alejandro/Ramon’s belongings. Really? Because his hand writing isn’t already all over the case notes, and nobody will notice they are the same? At this point, with so few episodes left, I can’t figure out how this will all be resolved.

Susan learned Mike had an autistic sister that his mom hid away a long time ago and who he just recently learned about. He was keeping it from Susan, as his mother begged him to as she was ashamed of her mistake. However he had been secretly supporting her in a group home with checks every month. This lead Julie to break down and tell Susan she’s no better than Mike’s mom, she wants to give this baby up because it’s an inconvenience. She decided to keep the baby instead, which of course pleased Susan. Maybe we’ll see a wedding for Julie in the finale?

Why has nobody addressed the Zach issue? Mike was his dad too! Wait . . . I can’t remember where Zach is anymore. Last we saw him he had shot Paul.

Carlos’ machismo got the best of him, as Gabby earning money began to annoy him. He didn’t like that she had become the breadwinner, whereas she enjoyed being able to treat him to a nice night out and support their family for the first time ever. Given the Lynette and Tom situation, I can’t see them breaking up another marriage on the show.

And speaking of Tom and Lynette . . . Tom’s girlfriend is a piece of work! Tom had apparently been sitting on signed divorce papers for awhile now. It seems clear that he was either hesitant to serve them to Lynette. Was he rethinking things, or was he waiting for the proper moment. I’m going with the former. Well this annoyed Jane to no end, and she decided to just deliver the papers to Lynette. Of course she did this on Tom’s birthday, right as Lynette was baking him a green velvet cake (don’t ask!). This lead to a great fight, with Lynette splattering Jane and her nice white suit with green cake batter. She then confronted Tom, who seemed to be at a loss for words over the papers. When he couldn’t tell Lynette one way or another what he wanted, she signed the papers and gave them to him. Tom later laid into Jane, saying she had no right, this wasn’t her place. Go Tom! It’s about time he remembered where he put his balls. The question now is, will Tom file the papers? Given how Tom has been acting, I don’t know if I want him and Lynette back together. The only reason I do if for some kind of a happy ending to the finale. However if they don’t end up together, I definitely want Jane gone. She cannot win!
