On tonight's episode of Desperate Housewives, we follow up on what happens after Julie, who was back home for her mom's wedding, was viciously attacked in the dying seconds of last week's kick-off. The citizens of Fairview try to make sense of the recent attack, and it sheds light to the new family the Bolens when the neighbors start pointing their fingers at them. Another unexpected pregnancy, meanwhile, jeopardizes Julie's condition. Angie Bolen, though, is determined to protect her son and her family's past. Remember that scar?

Elsewhere on "Being Alive" Lynette withholds a secret from Susan (maybe the pregnancy, don't they know already?), Gaby gives niece Ana advice on how to get a guy's attention, while Bree is understandably worried that her now full-blown affair with Karl will affect her friendship with Susan. Finally, Roy and Karen move their relationship forward - and we all know what the next big step is. Yes, that's exactly it, whatever you're thinking.


On last week's Desperate Housewives season 6 premiere, all seemed normal (Bree's having an affair, Katherine tried crashing Susan and Mike's wedding, Lynette is not fond of her unborn twins, and Gaby is being motherly, kind of), when right at the end of the episode, the young Bolen strangled Julie and left her for dead. This family has secrets all right, but right now it's still not clear what it is.

Among the highlights of the episode was the wedding of Mike to - Susan. Everything was peachy when Katherine showed up, not exactly to wish the happy couple well. Eventually, reconciliation between Susan and Katherine seemed to be afoot, when we learned that good old Katherine wasn't really keen on anything reconciliatory. Gaby had to go to a club, bribe a DJ, and wait for her niece to be bodysurfed against her will to the stage. Lynette, finally, had to deal with her unwanted pregnancy. I expect some serious drama here.
