I know why my mom killed herself.
3
Secrets were revealed.
4
This is getting really weird1.
5
I think we should go to the police.
6
Relationships got complicated.
7
Mama Solis. What are you doing here?
8
So you think she's cheating on you?
9
I think so.
10
I'll take care of it.
11
We got a call --something about a break-in.
12
I thought I'd seen a lot on the job,
but this is something else.
13
And the mystery...
14
Zach, why did you do this?
15
I don't know.
16
Deepened.
17
Zach.
18
Suburbia is a battle ground,
19
an arena2 for all forms of domestic combat.
20
Husbands clash with wives,
21
parents cross swords with children,
22
but the bloodiest3 battles often involve women
23
and their mothers-in-law.
24
The war for control of Carlos began the night he proposed,
25
and Gabrielle had been losing ground to Juanita ever since.
26
From the prenuptial agreement,
27
which she reluctantly signed...
28
to the selection of wedding music she despised...
29
to the color of the house paint she hadn't wanted,
30
Gabrielle had suffered one defeat after another.
31
And now that Juanita suspected her
daughter-in-law of having an affair,
32
it had become increasingly apparent in this war...
33
Mrs. Solis? I'll be at the market.
34
No prisoners would be taken.
35
Thank you, Yao Lin.
36
I don't see why you have her.
37
It's a big house. I need help.
38
It's only called help when you do some of the work yourself.
39
I supervise.
40
You pay her $300 a week.
41
Mm-hmm.
42
That's $15,000 a year.
43
Carlos, you always say how you're not
putting away enough for retirement4.
44
You know, baby, it would be a good
idea if we cut back on expenses.
45
You expect me to take care of this place all by myself?
46
Other women manage.
47
Ahem.
48
That's nice.
49
You like that?
50
Oh, yeah.
