Meanwhile, Susan discovers that Mike's father, Nick Delfino, whom Mike claimed was dead, is alive and serving a life prison term. Lynette, cranky through more chemotherapy, tries to deal with a opossum which digs up her front lawn garden.

User Reviews

good episode except for one thing

the episode is great, Danielle is actually maturing in realizing its better if Bree raises the baby. I find myself actually believing Victor won't run but maybe thats naive. I am a huge Mike Farrell fan back from watching episodes of M*A*S*H but he plays a bad guy here. Its nice to see him playing a different type of character. It seems like this episode shows some really crappy dad, including Mike's father. At least he feels bad about what it did to Mike. Finally he admitted how much it hurt Mike, now it would be good for him to say it to Mike. Lynette was hilarious trying to get rid of the possum but realizing that the problem wasn't with a possum but with the cancer. The end of her storyline in this episode was wonderful.Can't wait to see what happens to her next week. I finally am starting to Edie for who she is, someone bad. Overall good episode except for Andrew's costume, that is the worst Cher costume I have seen in a long time.
