I was surprised by Gabby's storyline - I really thought that she had given up the career at Carlos' insistence. Considering how she acted to the other housewives when she moved into the neighborhood, I'm not surprised she was a handful! As for Sam... it never occurred to me either that he was Rex's son. I have a feeling that this will be the catalyst for Shawn Pyfrom's departure from the series (something that was announced earlier this year). Sam may be Bree's "salvation" - he may allow her to rectify all the mistakes she made with Andrew and Danielle and make great strides toward reparing her relationship with Orson. I only hope that he doesn't turn out to be unstable and psychotic. He looked like he was barely holding it together after Andrew knocked him down (although I don't agree with violence, I was glad Andrew knocked that smug look off of his face!). I also assumed at first that he was gay, but that would be redundant for Bree to have two gay children (though not biologically) - however it does happen. He did mention that Andrew was having an affair with that assistant from last week - I don't like the way that that plotpoint was so nonchalant considering Andrew and Alex are supposed to be in a committed relationship. I wonder if he is the strangler from earlier this season... did that storyline get a resolution? If Patrick had no idea where Angie and Dominque were, who was spying on them?
