Desperate Housewives Episode 6.07 Careful the Things You Say

When Lynette catches Julie arguing with Nick, Julie is forced to admit that Nick was the guy she was seeing. Lynette swears, "I will handle this," and promises not to tell Susan, but we know Lynette's going to find a way around that!

Susan, meanwhile, is at the police station to get them to investigate Katherine as a suspect, but they're unconvinced. "Is there anyone here who understands a woman can be a psycho killer too?" Susan asks and Denise, a female detective, promises to look into the case. Susan is relieved, but what she doesn't know is that Denise went to high school with her and still holds a grudge against her!

Carlos offers to get Gaby some help by hiring a housekeeper, but she'd rather have a tutor. "You'd rather scrub toilets than teach your daughter?" "At least the toilets won't talk back," says Gaby, who cannot get Juanita to listen to her. Luckily, the new housekeeper is a whiz at fractions: She's a Romanian refugee with a PhD! Gaby's got her tutor after all! But when the house remains uncleaned, Carlos hires a different cleaning lady without telling her. Now Gaby has no choice but to talk Ivana into tutoring, and to do her cleaning for her! Carlos finds out and Gaby admits she makes a lousy teacher. We're glad Carlos finally agrees!

The Bolens invite Bree and Orson over for dinner, which turns out to be a ploy to get Bree to hire Angie. Orson loves her food, but Bree insists, "We're not hiring." When she has an Italian client who needs dinner for 500, though, she offers them Angie's menu. We wish Bree would just ask Angie to help her out, but instead tricks her into handing over the recipes for a "friend." Of course, Angie finds her making the recipes in huge batches and calls Bree, rightly, "A two-faced condescending bitch." Bree returns to apologize and to beg for her help when she can't master the Italian menu. First Angie wants to know why she didn't want to hire her. Bree admits that Angie's candor makes her uncomfortable. "Not everyone's marriage is as perfect as yours, Nancy Reagan," snaps Angie and Bree reveals that her marriage with Orson is in name only. "You think I'm vulgar and I think you're a tightass, but you need help and I need a job," says Angie and they begin to cook.

Lynette warns Nick to leave Julie alone. We wonder again if Nick was the strangler when he grabs Lynette's arm and tells her that if she mentions the affair to anyone, "You're the one who's going to be sorry." Lynette's right there with us: she tells Tom, "I think I know who strangled Julie." Julie insists it couldn't have been Nick, but they still go to the police and inform them of the affair. When the police call for Nick's alibi, Angie tells Nick she's known for weeks about the affair. We thought as much! But we wonder why she lies that Nick was with her the entire night. Does Angie need an alibi of her own?

Susan finally recognizes Denise as "Moose" a plain girl that hated her for stealing her boyfriend. "Oh my God, I sent her over there, it's like a meeting of the 'I hate Susan club.'" Sure enough, when she sees Denise leave Katherine's there's no arrest, instead the two women hug! Denise informs Susan that Katherine has an alibi: She was on the phone with her daughter and the phone records prove it. We can't believe it when Susan is the one Denise arrest, for not reporting having shot Katherine!
