Gabrielle throws a farewell party for Carlos who is off to prison for eight months. At the party, she finds out she is pregnant and that her birth control pills have been tampered with. Furious, she accuses Carlos in front of all the party guests. Bree and Rex unexpectedly run into George at the park and Rex advises George to beat it. Bree tries to make amends by visiting George in the pharmacy. He lies and tells her that he has found a girlfriend, Ginger who stacks the shelves. Bree feels happy for George and invites him to come to Carlos's farewell party. When Rex sees George at the party, he asks him why he is there and proceeds to push both Bree and George into the pool. Zach continues to stalk Julie who is not interested in being his girlfriend anymore. Paul asks Edie why she broke into his house and Edie informs Paul it was Susan's idea. Paul meets Susan and manages to lie once more about the Mary Alice/Dana mystery. When Susan's kitchen catches on fire, she blames Paul Young as the arson and goes to Mr. Shaw for background information on Mary Alice and Paul. Tom's ex-girlfriend, Annabel Foster, resurfaces at the firm which causes Lynette to become jealous when she fears her marriage is in jeopardy.
