(Edie leaves the room. Betty goes over to the TV. She sees on the screen "Breaking News-Arrest in Foster Case." The reporter is standing in front of a police station. She turns the volume up quickly.)

TV Reporter: "Possible. Now for those of you just joining us, families in Chicago

breathed a sigh of relief today as an arrest was finally made in the brutal attack of local high school student, Melanie Foster."

(On the screen, police are taking a young black man out of the police car into the police station.)

TV Reporter: "Word of the suspect's capture comes as small comfort to the Foster family-"

Edie: "Betty?"

(Edie enters the room to see that Betty has left. The TV volume is still turned up.) TV Reporter: "The Fosters lost their seventeen-year-old daughter almost four months ago."

[Betty's House]

(Betty rushes into her house. As she enters, she hears the TV reporter on the TV.) Betty: "Did you see the news? They've arrested somebody."

Matthew: "Yeah. Looks like we're in the clear."

[Bree's House]

(Bree, Gabrielle, Susan, and Edie are playing cards in the dining room.)

Bree: "Well, I have some good news. The police are finally releasing Rex's body." Gabrielle: "About time."

Susan: "You must be so relieved."

Bree: "You know, mostly I'm annoyed that the whole thing happened in the first place. I mean how in the world can anyone accuse me of murder?"

Edie: "Well, you are wound pretty tight. What? The super mom is always the first to snap. They've done studies."

Bree: "Anyway, I was hoping that you were all free Friday morning because that's when I'll be hosting the re-burial."

Gabrielle: "The what?"

Bree: "Look, I know it's an imposition, but Danielle is away on a class trip and Andrew is back at Camp Hennessey for a little refresher course. Well, it's just gonna be a very brief and, and dignified ceremony and I was hoping that you could say a few words and, um, I'm gonna read a poem."

Gabrielle: "We would love to come."

Susan: "Absolutely."

(Bree gets up and goes into the kitchen. Susan looks at Edie.)

Edie: "I'm busy. Sorry."

Susan (whispering): "Edie!"

Edie (whispering): "She's going to read a poem."

(Susan kicks Edie under the table as Bree comes back into the room.)

Edie: "Oww! Fine, yes, yes, we'd all love to come."

Bree: "Thank you. You don't know how much this means to me. I've realized looking back that I was still in shock during Rex's first funeral. I don't think it had quite hit me yet what had happened so that's why this small ceremony means so much to me. Because I realize now that this is the last chance I'm gonna have to say goodbye."

(Gabrielle takes Bree's hand.)

Edie: "Unless, of course, they dig him up again."

(The ladies all look at her.)

[Fairview County Jail]

(Inmates and their significant others are gathered in a circle with a chaplain overseeing a therapy session with inmates and their wives, including Carlos and Gabrielle.)

Bob: "Sure, there were times when Lisa was rude and obnoxious. But I know now that that was no excuse to always be beating on her. Oh, baby, I'm just so sorry."

(Bob and Lisa hug. The chaplain applauds and the others join in. Carlos and Gabrielle do not applaud.)

Chaplain: "Good job, you two. This is an example of how to use incarceration to your benefit. It's a chance for people to take a step back and observe the obstacles they face in their marriage."

Mona: "Can I go now? 'Cause I have a lot to say about the obstacles I'm facing in my marriage."

Lamar: "We don't got any obstacles."

Mona: "Yes we do, Lamar, we got big ones."

Chaplain: "Okay, hold on, you two. I think that it's Carlos and Gabrielle's turn." Carlos: "Thanks, but we're good."

(Carlos puts his hand on Gabrielle's leg. Gabrielle pushes his hand away.)

Chaplain: "This is your third group session, but you have yet to share anything. Come on, talk to us. How's your marriage?"

Gabrielle: "Shaky at best."

Chaplain: "And why is that?"

Gabrielle: "I don't know. I hired a brilliant lawyer to get my husband out of this hellhole and he fired him. For no reason at all."

Chaplain: "Carlos?"

Carlos: "I just didn't like him."

Gabrielle: "Why not? He's experienced, he's intelligent, he's successful."
