Complete story — includes the ending
The four housewives and Carlos bury Alejandro Perez's body in the woods and make a pact to keep his death a secret. Carlos's guilt has left him irritable and depressed, so Gabrielle convinces him to confide in his priest. Susan wants to tell Mike about the cover-up, but the other housewives warn her that he could be implicated if they are ever caught. Renee attempts to seduce new neighbor Ben Faulkner, but he rejects her. Lynette and Tom go to great lengths to hide their separation from their children. After Lynette has a nightmare about Alejandro and sleeps with Tom, he assumes they are getting back together, but Lynette tells him they are not. Tom, upset at being led on, discloses the separation to the children. Bree struggles with dating a detective while covering up Alejandro's death. Later, Bree receives an anonymous letter that reads, "I know what you did. It makes me sick. I'm going to tell", the same one that Mary Alice received before killing herself.
