Tom and Lynette’s ex-chef Rick comes into the restaurant and throws her off game. Immediately Tom comes over. Rick brought them a bottle of Italian wine from his trip, and news that he’s opening his own restaurant on the corner. Tom is NOT happy. That night, Tom comes home really late. He’s been working on their menu, and he’s ready to fight. The return of old Rick has really gotten under his skin.

Orson is sleepwalking. Susan comes down craving the last piece of Bree’s chocolate cake, but when she turns to face him he’s totally naked! He keeps repeating: “I had to do something.” He’s in a trance, and Susan chooses to just go back to bed. The next morning, Susan (rapidly disinfecting) tries to explain to Orson and Bree what happened the night before, but they blow it off as her having a fantasy dream. Gaby makes her first trip to Price Warehouse, to shop with the regular folks now that she’s poor. She runs into Lynette and laments about the lack of valet parking, but Lynette tells her to have Carlos get a blue handicapped tag.

Katherine and Bree oh-so-nicely disagree about flowers. Bree shows her last year’s arrangement and Katherine busts out an even bigger scrapbook of arrangements she’s done. Katherine is clearly getting under her skin. You can almost see the smoke starting to come out her ears. Then again, she did make a point of congratulating Bree for correctly pronouncing Lisianthus before declaring, “Isn’t learning fun?!” in that fake sweet way.

The police show up at Lynette’s doorstep looking for Tom. Someone threw a brick through the window at Rick’s. Tom tells them he came home early that night (though we all know he didn’t.) Lynette tries to talk to him but he runs off. Later she questions him and reminds him about purgatory. Tom looks like he’s about to cry. He says he cares that Lynette made it seem like Rick could steal her, and that has changed the way he looks at her. The kids watching the whole incident (of course) and when Lynette tries to reassure him yet again, he says he’s not asking for apology, just explaining the brick.

Gaby (in her finest) is loading up her groceries. A guy in a wheelchair tells her she can’t park there, she’s taking up spots and he had to park far away. They get in an argument, with her pushing him over the edge by saying that his life is so much easier because he can sit an roll around all day while she has to walk in heels. Yikes. He tries to call the cops and another guy in a wheelchair gets involved. She strong-arms the phone from him and gives him a hefty push down the parking lot and takes off, declaring that it’s official: She’s going to hell.

Susan is awakened again, only this time she finds naked Orson out on the front lawn mumbling “I didn’t’ mean to do it. I didn’t mean it Mike.” She slaps him and he takes off down the street first before Susan reminds him he’s staying with her. Later she mentions he said something about Mike. He tells her they’re going to move out, even though the house isn’t finished yet.

Gaby tries to drag Carlos out, but he doesn’t want to go. Really, she is just bringing him along to make use of the parking tag. After having to wait at every stop (it’s hot out), he’s getting pissed. Finally she leaves him the car to get her nails done, but she can’t find him when she gets back. An older couple drives by and makes a comment about her handicapped tag and Carlos is not pleased at all. She launches into a relatively heartfelt speech about how hard it is to do this and how stressful she thinks it is to remember where to put the toothpastes, and it almost seems genuine.

As the ball is almost underway, Katherine puts herself in charge of food. Bree is not happy, so when a waiter tells her there’s been a refrigeration problem with a batch of dip, she gladly offers it up to Katherine. After all, it’s not fair that Bree won’t get to present the award—she does it every year. Katherine instantly gets sick and Bree tries to talk her out of presenting. No dice. Bree is stewing at the table about the “obnoxious backstabber” when Katherine announces that this year’s award goes to Bree. Bree is shocked (maybe more so at Katherine whispering in her ear that she knows she tried to kill her with the dip), but manages to accept. Andrew calls Lynette and says that Ricks has been set ablaze. She looks around for Tom… who arrives at that moment. Guilty!

Bree goes to grab Katherine for photos, but Katherine wants to talk. She thought things were good, what happened? Bree tells her that among the gals on Wisteria everyone has a place. Susan is adorable, Gaby is gorgeous, Lynette is smart, and she is the domestic organizer. But not only is that who she is, it’s who Katherine is and she doesn’t know how to be friends with her. Katherine says that’s a shame because she understands her better and they could be best friends.

Julie goes home (late) and finds Orson on the steps. This time he confesses  “I’m sorry I ran you over Mike.” She doesn’t know what to do with this news. So now we have guilt, jealousy, arson, you name it. What can possibly be next for our neighbors? Bad things seem to be in store for Dylan, as some mysterious person circles her head with red marker in the photograph from the ball. A fight breaks out with Rick in the restaurant, as more drama between him and Tom unfolds. Julie must leak the news of Orson’s late-night sleepy confession because Mike confronts him! And Carlos gets a seeing-eye dog… much to Gaby’s dismay. All right, what does everyone think so far? Will Tom and Lynette fall apart over Rick’s return? Can Gaby really suck it up and stay with Carlos even though he’s cramping her style? Will everyone learn the truth about Orson? And who’s after Dylan??
