Lynette and Tom finally find a couple with kids tough enough to play with the Scavo twins. Unfortunately, the couple also has prohibitive amounts of home-porn pride. Edie and Karl break up, and Karl ends up at Susan's for the night. Susan and Karl share their sad breakup stories, and also a bottle of wine. Cut to the next morning, when Julie walks in on the two of them in bed, asleep but clearly post-coital. After Julie leaves in a huff, Karl asks Susan if maybe she wants to give their relationship another go. A suddenly mature Susan thanks Karl for the offer, and the lovely evening, but declines, so Karl goes back to Edie (and yet, at the end, we see him gazing upon a photo of Susan he has hidden in the pages of a book). George takes Bree to see his new house and then proposes to her in front of his mother and his real estate agent. Not wanting to be rude, Bree says yes. Later, Dr. Goldfine wonders if she's not rushing into things, what with Rex being dead just two scant months. (You think?) Bree, who starts having second thoughts (you think?), tells George about Goldfine's concerns. So George? Throws Dr. Goldfine off an overpass. An overpass! Caleb from under the stairs escapes the Applewrong compound. Matthew and Betty go searching the neighborhood for him, but Matthew only finds a cigarette-smoking, bikini-clad Danielle. Danielle and Matthew do some flirting, and the stage seems to be set for some sexy Matthew/Danielle intrigue in the not-so-distant future. Meanwhile, Caleb's actually hiding out in Gabby's house, and when Gabby happens upon the mysterious and large Caleb in her closet, she screams and takes off running. She's a third of the way down the stairs when her too-tight dress trips her and she falls down, down, down. Caleb runs away, and Gabby gets carted off in an ambulance, clutching the picture from her sonogram to her breast. Meaning the baby is gone, or at least in big danger of being lost! (AN OVERPASS!)
