Gaby and family run into her former lover, John, at a local restaurant, which he owns! Hearing that he's now divorced, Gaby starts to primp and Carlos accuses her of "still having the hots" for John. She denies it, but we later catch her gazing fondly at an old photo of John.

Susan is shocked to see that Bob's sprung Danny Bolen from jail. Bob tells her he's just doing his job and that there was no evidence against Danny, but Susan insists on announcing Danny's guilt to the entire street.

Karl asks Bree to go to Vegas for the weekend, but she turns him down, saying they're not in love and that Karl is just a "delightful diversion." But by the bitchy way she acts when she sees Karl with a hot young date we realize he means much more than that to her. Horrified that Karl and Candace are headed for "their" motor lodge, she comes up with a plan to eliminate her rival: When Candace is dancing with Orson, Bree spills salad oil on the floor, causing Candace to fall and break her nose. Orson mistakenly thinks the sabotage was because Candace was dancing with him! "A woman doesn't pull a stunt like that over a man she's not in love with," he tells her, which prompts Bree to call Karl and say yes to Vegas.

Lynette finally tells her kids that she's expecting twins, giving Preston the chance to deliver a role-reversal rebuke that has us in stitches: "I hope you're happy. You've destroyed both your futures for a few moments of pleasure." She's just about to tell Carlos when he stuns her by offering her the position of Senior VP, including a 50 percent pay bump! She convinces Tom to keep quiet about her pregnancy for now. She's immediately put to the test at a dinner with an important client, whose wine she can't refuse to drink. We admire Tom's quick solution: Through sleight-of-hand, he manages to drink all her wine for her, getting thoroughly drunk in the process.

When Angie insists to Nick they can't change their names and flee -- again -- we think that they must be running from something much worse that suspicion of murder. Like, say, the mob? Why else would they keep a loaded gun in the house, one Angie urges Danny to use if he needs it?

Lynette reminds Susan about how the whole town thought Porter was guilty of arson. "People can be wrong," she advises Susan, who insists, "I'm not wrong." When she spots Danny working under a car, she puts the pressure on him -- literally! -- by lowering the carjack. He insists he's innocent and Angie comes to his defense with a baseball bat. So Susan feels terrible when she hears that the police have cleared Danny of any wrongdoing. When she sees someone's thrown garbage all over the Bolens' yard, we're touched that she shows up with a garbage bag and wordlessly begins helping Angie clean up.
