NARRATOR: Since her modeling days in New York, Gabrielle had developed a taste for rich food and rich men.

NARRATOR: Gabrielle liked her paella piping hot. However, her relationship with her husband was considerably cooler.

Bree Van DeKamp

NARRATOR: Yes, Bree's many talents were known throughout the neighborhood. And everyone on Wisteria Lane thought of Bree as the perfect wife and mother. Everyone, that is, except her own family.

Susan Mayer

NARRATOR: Her husband Karl always teased her about her macaroni, saying it was the only thing she knew how to cook, and she rarely made it well.

NARRATOR: A year had passed since the divorce. Susan had started to think how nice it would be to have a man in her life, even one who would make fun of her cooking.

-SHOPPER: Lynette Scavo?

-LYNETTE: Crap. Natalie Klein, I don’t believe it!

-SHOPPER: Lynette! How long has it been?

-LYNETTE:  Years! Uh, how are you, how’s the firm?

-SHOPPER: Good, everyone misses you.

-LYNETTE: Yeah.

-SHOPPER: We all say, if you hadn’t quit, you’d be running the place by now.

-LYNETTE: Yeah, well.

-SHOPPER: So… how’s domestic life? Don’t you just love being a mom?

-NARRATOR: And there it was - the question that Lynette always dreaded.

-LYNETTE: Well, to be honest...

-NARRATOR: To those who asked it, only one answer was acceptable.

So, Lynette responded as she always did - she lied.

-LYNETTE: It’s the best job I’ve ever had.
