'Desperate Housewives': Marry me, Bree

 "Desperate Housewives" is gearing up for next week's big finale, so tonight featured far more setup than payoff. Luckily, it also featured a number of amusing one-liners. And a number of valuable lessons about the dangers of plastic surgery, robbing yourself, overspending, and having a private conversation while an evil mastermind is listening in on the phone. I hope you all were taking notes!

On Desperate Housewives, it seems food and sex are legal tender. Food, sex, and slumber party invitations. Though the substance of the episode was largely forgettable, there were several laugh out loud (and "ew "out loud) moments, and the Dave plot is still thankfully lumbering toward its conclusion.

Kudos to those of you who suspected there was more to the story of Susan and Mike's car accident! We got a few additional details tonight on "Desperate Housewives" -- a minor twist, but I'll take what I can get these days. We also learned that marriage is fraught with jealousy, lying, and knick-knack stealing. Just something to keep in mind.
