Bree finds out that Orson is committing theft to hurt her and she is unintentionally emasculating him by being the breadwinner of the house. She plans on selling her company, but decides not to when Andrew makes her realize that she should make herself happy by continuing her business. Susan discovers that Karl's son, Evan, who attends Oakridge has some psychological issues because his mother, Marisa, left Karl after the birth. Dave's plans are to kill Katherine with a hunting rifle during Mike and Katherine's romantic hike so that Mike mourns her loss forever, but his plans fail when Edie finds out about why he had moved to Wisteria Lane with her when the newspaper faxes her an article claiming Mike was the one who killed Dave's family in the accident. Edie confronts Dave and runs away in her car when he tries to strangle her for trying to tell Mike the truth, but steers her car when she sees Orson on the road who is running away from a neighbor, Rose Kemper, after trying to steal again, causing Edie's car to crash into an electric pole, resulting in an electric shock that kills her.
