Susan, Bree and Lynette are playing cards when Gabby bursts in with Juanita in tow. She tells Juanita to "hit it" and Juanita starts giving a stilted reading of a sales pitch. She's selling candy. Oh, no she didn't. Her pitch includes that she's selling candy so she doesn't end up on the streets, which I think is a nice touch. Bree and Lynette both agree to buy a bar and Gabby reminds them that she bought tons of crap from their kids, so they're going to have to do better than one bar. Susan gets looks from Bree and Lynette, so she tells Juanita to go play with MJ. Then, she explains to Gabby that the girls have already agreed to buy bars from MJ. Gabby says that they can buy from Juanita too. Susan goes further and says that MJ is having self-esteem issues and needs to win the contest. Gabby understands but does not care. Juanita doesn't have friends and needs the prize, which is a party. It'll help her fit in. Neither back down. Bree wonders what they should do and Lynette points out that if they buy the same amount of bars from each of them, it'll be a wash. Why buy any at all? Gabby and Susan do not appear to buy into this idea. Bree and Lynette both reach for their wallets.
It's a party at Mrs. McClusky's. Gabby tells Karen that she was shocked to hear that Karen had lung cancer. She didn't know that she smoked. She never did, replies Karen. You don't have to be a smoker to get lung cancer. Roy tells Gabby that it could happen to her. Nice. Carlos proposes getting a drink, since they're apparently dying anyway. Katherine and Robin enter and Katherine reminds her that they're not a couple. Robin says she knows that they're on a "covert lesbian mission." Katherine just doesn't want to freak everyone out. Robin reminds her that she stabbed herself and blamed Mike -- being a lady lover isn't the same level of mind-blowing. They bump into Tom who says that this is the best cancer party ever. He says that he was talking to Karen's doctor and Katherine apparently made quite the impression. The doctor likes her! Katherine agrees to speak with him.
Gabby catches Susan "Willy Wonka" Delfino selling candy and tells her that doing so at an "I Survived Cancer" party is tacky. Susan explains that the antioxidants in chocolate fight disease. We all should remember that. Gabby insists that the kids are supposed to be selling the candy, when Lee pops up and shames Gabby for selling Bob candy so close to "Speedo season." This show was created by a gay man and that's what we get? Card revoked.
