51
she would feel the full force of his wrath1.
52
Hey, mr. Solis.
53
Hey, John, take care of that ficus yet?
54
- I'll get to it as soon as I'm done here.
- All right.
55
- But she was quickly reminded that...
- Yeah, sure.
56
- what Carlos couldn't see...
- No problem.
57
Couldn't hurt her.

Episode 2 - Ah, but underneath2
59
The peaceful facade3 of Wisteria Lane had recently been shattered,
60
first by my suicide...
61
and then by the discovery of...
62
a note among my belongings4 that suggested a suspicious reason for my desperate act.
63
My friends gathered to discuss its implications.
64
I think we should give it to Paul.
65
He's still mourning, Susan. He'll probably freak out.
66
It doesn't matter. She was his wife. He deserves to have all the facts.
67
Well, we could do it gently.
68
We could tell him about it over coffee and pastry5.
69
That would be fun.
70
"Paul, we have proof your wife killed herself
71
over some deep, dark secret. Another bear claw?"
72
We could always call the police.
73
Maybe it's just some sort of sick joke.
74
Well, if it was a joke, it was in very poor taste.
75
No, this was serious. I know it was.
76
We got to find out what was going on.
77
Let's say we do. There's a chance we're not going to like what we find.
78
Well, isn't it worse to be in the dark?
79
I mean, imagining she did all these horrible things.
80
It's the age-old question, isn't it?
81
How much do we really want to know about our neighbors?
82
My friends were right to be concerned.
83
They knew that every family has its secrets,
84
and as my son and husband could have told them,
85
you need to think carefully before digging them up.
86
After talking for hours,
87
my friends still hadn't agreed on what to do with the note.
88
So they decided6 to talk about it in the morning after a good night's rest.
89
But no one could sleep that night.
90
They each kept thinking of my suicide
91
and how terribly alone I must have felt.
92
You see, loneliness was something my friends understood all too well.
93
It's okay. I'm up.
94
Good.
95
I have a question for you.
96
Do you remember when you proposed?
97
For god's sake --
98
We sat on skyline drive and drank a bottle of apple wine,
99
and when we finished it, you turned to me, and you said,

"if you marry me, Bree Mason,
