Complete story — includes the ending

Bree engages in a series of one-night stands with random men she picks up from the dive bar. At the local church bake sale, Bree encounters one of her lovers, who turns out to be married, and proudly owns up to her reputation as the "town whore". When Claudia angrily accuses Susan of having an affair with Alejandro, Gabrielle tells Claudia that she was molested by Alejandro at age 15; Claudia refuses to believe this until Marisa confesses to it herself, leading Claudia to comfort her daughter. Renee reluctantly sets Lynette up on a date with her hairdresser, Frank. The date is a disaster as Lynette tries to control Frank's life and offers him a five-year business plan, and Frank takes his revenge on Renee by giving her a huge perm. Renee happily accepts Ben's marriage proposal, but he ends up admitting that he wants to marry her for her money, prompting her to end the relationship. Ben borrows money from Donny and warns him to stay away from Renee.
