Later, on Wisteria Lane: residents patrol the streets like Nazis. And Gabrielle gets a surprise visitor: her mother-in-law. "What are you doing here?" Gabrielle asks, when she runs into Mama Solis on her front walkway. "I'm visiting, what does it look like? It's a surprise." They hug, awkwardly. "Family should always hug," whispers Mama Solis. "Regardless of how they feel about each other."
Posh Academy. The Scavos. The Headmaster. The face-off! Gay Matt looks at all the Headmaster's sailing photos, and yips about his own boat, and there's some tiresome blah blah blah about boating enthusiasts, and finally the Headmaster gets down to business, calling Pastoral and Picturesque's educational background "more common" than he would prefer, but he says that KimberBree did mention to him that the boys are identical twins, and that certainly would enhance class diversity. "The boys are fascinating," chirps Lynette. "They even have their own twin secret language, don't they, [Gay Matt]?" Gay Matt pipes up that they do, and that it's "pretty scary." Lynette tightly adds that it's not scary so much as "highly developed." Gay Matt nods. "The bark and growl at each other," he begins, before Lynette shuts him down. On the strength of this, the Headmaster decides to put the twins on the school's Must Meet list, and asks Lynette to bring them in for observation. She agrees, but looks very worried. Since, you know, she knows her kids are assholes. "Great," Gay Matt says tightly. Doug Savant is so charming in this role. I really like him. I will be sad when we find out that he's having a relationship with a man who's actually still married. To a woman. Now that I think about it, when Gay Matt was having the affair with the Married Man on Melrose Place, the woman the Married Man was married to was played by the actress who also played Grace Bennett on Passions, and Grace Bennett -- in addition to having a wicked case of amnesia and a mysterious first husband that she forgot about because, she thought, of the amnesia, but actually because he wasn't really her first husband at all, but a man this other woman paid to pretend to be Grace's first husband because this other woman was in love with Grace's actual husband despite the fact that the actual husband showed the emotional range of a block of wood and was nicknamed by TWoP's forums "Tan I Am" because of his addiction to Mystic Tan -- was also Miguel's girlfriend's dead mother's twin sister. It's such a small world!
