settima stagione di Desperate Housewives, in cui vedremo l’ex Ugly Betty Vanessa Williams nel ruolo di Renee Perry, che ha un matrimonio non molto fortunato con una star del baseball di New York (Reggie Austin) e che oltre ad essere un ex rivale (al college) di Lynette Scavo (Felicity Huffman) si contenderà con Bree (Marcia Cross) Keith il contractor interpretato da Brian Austin Green.
Ma la prima puntata della settima stagione si intitola “Remember Paul?” e non a caso,visto che gli abitanti di Wisteria Lane saranno molto sorpresi di scoprire che Paul Young (Mark Moses), uscito di prigione, è tornato nel quartiere con una nuova moglie ed oscuri motivi.
Il nostro – come abbiamo scoperto nel season finale della sesta stagione, ha affittato la casa di Susan (Teri Hatcher), che assieme a MJ e Mike (James Denton) vivono in un piccolo appartamento a causa delle loro difficoltà finanziarie, anche se Susan avrà la speranza di tornare di nuovo benestante quando la sua vicina di casa Maxine (Lainie Kazan) le offrirà un lavoro non molto ortodosso.
Detto di Lynette che riceverà l’inaspettata visita di Renee, Gabrielle (Eva Longoria) e Carlos (Ricardo Antonio Chavira) si nasconderanno l’un l’altro dei segreti, mentre Bree, che ha venduto il suo business e si è separate dal marito, si troverà ad avere una cotta per Keith, il giovane e ‘gnocco’ contractor che ha assunto per rinfrescare la sua casa.
In the town of Fairview there's a street called Wisteria Lane; a peaceful cul-de-sac with manicured lawns and beautiful houses. It's a place where you know all your neighbors and your neighbors know all about you. It's the perfect suburban fantasy.
But, behind every picket fence there are secrets. And, in every seemingly happy home, you'll find jealousy, lust, passion, and sometimes... murder.
Everything that begins must eventually end. This episode of beginnings and endings walks us both backwards and forwards as we take our final stroll down Wisteria Lane.
Bree's trial finally comes to an end with a surprise confession. Tom takes steps to finalize his divorce.
In the penultimate episode leading into the two-hour finale of this landmark series, as her trial nears, Bree begins to fall for her attorney, Trip; Susan becomes concerned when Julie doubts Porter's commitment to be a hands-on father to their unborn baby; as Tom gets closer to being transferred to India for his job - thanks to Lynette - she begins to have second thoughts and tries to convince his boss to rescind the move; and the ladies are shocked about Gaby's nonchalant attitude as Bree continues to stand trial and take the fall for Carlos in the murder of Alejandro.
With Mike gone, Susan attempts to build a car for MJ's father-and-son school soapbox derby; Bree's attorney, Trip, learns of her previous drunken sexual spree and needs her to come clean about it in order to help strengthen her case; Lynette tries to cause some negative friction between Tom and his girlfriend, Jane, by flirting with his boss and getting him to pile more work on her estranged husband; Gaby is furious with Carlos when he tries to poach one of her rich, personal shopper clients (Doris Roberts) and talk her into helping with his newly formed charity organization; and Renee discovers that Ben is keeping a secret from her about his involvement with Bree -- and the body found at his work site.
Carlos gets concerned about Gabrielle's new job; an affair makes Susan suspicious; the police ask a hotel owner about Alejandro's whereabouts; Bree needs a lawyer's help in order to get her charges of Alejandro Perez's murder cleared. Jane served to Lynette their divorce papers.
