It was so good to see Lee back! I always miss him when he disappears, so this episode took me to my happy place. I'm glad that Tom respected Lynette enough not to have someone else drop off the divorce papers, and it was a real bitch move for Jane to take them. I think Tom's just dragging his feet because he knows he doesn't want a divorce :) I don't think he'll ever send them. I can't believe that cop put Bree's house number on that map... NOT cool, man. And more importantly? Not legal!
And HOLY CRAP. Who knew Mike had a sister? It's nice to know that this show can still keep me guessing, even in the final season! It's nice that things became really clear for Julie, though.
I honestly believe that that was the best episode of the season so far...
Surprisingly, Susan had the best storyline for once, she didn't make any stupid decisions or say any idiotic - Susan-type - things, and what happened with Julie was fantastic and an example of some great acting from Andrea Bowen, who hasn't always been the best actress on the show. The mention of Mike's mom was really nice too, although I would have liked to find out why she wasn't at his funeral!
Lynette's story was really upsetting as I really believed that by the end of this episode, Jane would be gone and Tom and Lynette would be together again. The good news - Jane is finally losing her grip on Tom, I give her 1 more episode before she's gone and they're back together.
I enjoyed Bree as always, her 'mini-quiches' line as she was being led away was fantastic! The fat detective is really starting to piss me off though...if he is not brought to justice soon I will flip! Surely they would check the number against Alejandro's handwriting though...?
Gabrielle's story was mostly filler/comedy, but the confrontation with Carlos at the end was interesting and an intriguing route for the couple to take as they head towards the finale...
I thought the same thing about Susan - I've never been a huge fan of hers, since I think she's ridiculous, but this was a pretty great episode for her. She didn't annoy me once, and that's really saying something.
This season is starting to drag but really this episode wasn't the greatest. I love perfect Bree but hate that cop I want to go through my tv and kill him for being a a*ole. I hate Jane, she should have not gone and did what she did that was not her doing. We get it, Mike was a good guy we all knew that by now but I liked the Susan storyline and agree with everyone about Susan not being annoying in this episode. Although she was annoying why wanting to see what was in Mike's box, that's one of the things I hate about Susan.

Loved it! That cop is dirrrrrty! Poor Bree. Hope Stephen Bartowski, oops, I mean, her new defense lawyer gets her off :)
