- Mary Alice Young: There is a widely read book that tells us everyone is a sinner. Of course, not everyone feels guilt over the bad things they do. In contrast, there are those who assume more than their share of the blame. There are others who soothe their consciences with small acts of kindness... or by telling themselves their sins are justified. Finally, there are the ones who simply vow to do better next time, and pray for forgiveness. Sometimes, their prayers are answered.
- Lynette Scavo: I love my kids so much. I'm so sorry they have me as a mother.
- Bree Van De Kamp: Lynette, you are a great mother.
- Lynette Scavo: No, I'm not. I can't do it. I'm so tired of feeling like a failure. It's so humiliating.
- Susan: No, it's not. So you got addicted to your kids' ADD medication. It happens.
- Bree Van De Kamp: You've got four kids. That's a lot of stress. Honey, you just need some help.
- Lynette Scavo: That's what makes it so humiliating. Other moms don't need help. Other moms make it look so easy. All I do is complain.
- Susan: That's not true. When - when Julie was a baby, I - I was out of my mind almost every day.
- Bree Van De Kamp: I used to get so upset when Andrew and Danielle were little, I used their nap times to cry.
- Lynette Scavo: [sniffs] Why didn't you ever tell me this?
- [sobs]
- Bree Van De Kamp: [whispers] Oh, baby. Nobody likes to admit that they can't handle the pressure.
- Susan: I think it's just like we think, you know, it's easier to keep it all in.
- Lynette Scavo: Oh, we shouldn't. We should tell each other this stuff.
- Susan: It helps, huh?
- Lynette Scavo: Yeah. It really
- [sniffs]
- Lynette Scavo: does.

- Mary Alice Young: [Bree opens the Bible] There is a widely read book that tells us everyone is a sinner. Of course, not everyone who reads this book over the bad things they do, but Bree Van De Kamp did. In fact, Bree had spent most of her life feeling guilty.
- Father Crowley: Gabrielle, the Church is pretty clear about this. If you commit a mortal sin and you die without repenting, you go to hell.
- Gabrielle Solis: Aren't you just a ball of fun?
- [pauses, sighs]
- Gabrielle Solis: So, if I confess, it will clean the slate, right?
- Father Crowley: Not only that, if you want God's forgiveness, you have to be truly sorry and you have to promise not to commit the sin again.
- Gabrielle Solis: So what happens if I repent... later? Like, say, when I'm 75?
- Father Crowley: I wouldn't recommend waiting. What if you die before then?
- Gabrielle Solis: Well, let's say I *don't* die? I... do yoga, I eat well. If I wait, does my repenting still count?
- Father Crowley: If you mean it, yes.
- Gabrielle Solis: Thank you, Father Crowley.
- [grabs purse]
- Gabrielle Solis: You have been a tremendous comfort. Um, I will let you do your thing.
- [quickly walks away]
- Father Crowley: Gabrielle,
- [Gabrielle stops and turns to face him]
- Father Crowley: you know we are all responsible for the choices we make. Don't you wanna be a good person?
- Gabrielle Solis: What I want is to be happy.
- Father Crowley: That's the answer of a selfish child.
- Gabrielle Solis: I know.
