On Sunday's episode of Desperate Housewives, Mary Alice thinks her friends on Wisteria Lane need to beware of the mysterious men in their lives: Eddie, Sam, Patrick Logan and... Mike? Tonight we saw dubious actions by all four men, and as a result there's danger looming on the horizon.
SUSAN and GABY
Susan inherited a piano from an aunt, but she wants Gaby to think she and Mike bought it for $30,000 since she's jealous that Gaby always brags about how much money she and Carlos spend.
Cut to Gaby in lingerie — "I know, right?" she says, when Carlos' jaw drops — who is offering afternoon sex. In exchange for what, asks Carlos. It seems Mrs. Solis has her mind set on a ski house in Aspen. Carlos bluffs and says they can't afford it because of a top-secret business deal.

How are monsters created? That's the question that the ghostly Mary Alice Young asks from beyond the grave on Sunday's Desperate Housewives. As it turns out in flashback, she is perhaps the Housewife who first noticed that things were not quite right with Eddie Orlofsky, who was raised by his drunk single mom Barbara (guest star Diane Farr, who you might recognize from her stints on Californication, Numb3rs and Rescue Me). After last week, we know that he's the Fairview Strangler, but this week we see how five unwitting Housewives tried to help him through the years — and failed.
