Danielle: Why cant we have a normal soup?Bree: Danielle, there is nothing abnormal about basil puree. Danielle: Just once, can we have a soup that people all heard of, like French onion, or navy bean. Bree: First of all, your father cant eat onions. Hes deathly allergic. And I wont even dignify your navy bean suggestion. So, hows the osso buco? Andrew: Its okay. Bree: Its okay? Andrew, I spent three hours cooking this meal. How do you think it makes me feel when you say its okay in that sullen tone? Andrew: Who asked you to spend three hours on dinner? Bree: Excuse me? Andrew: Tim Harpers mom gets home from work, pops open a can of pork and beans, and boom, theyre eating. Everyones happy. Bree: Youd rather I serve pork and beans? Danielle: Apologize now, I am begging you. Andrew: Im saying, do you always have to serve cuisine? Cant we ever just have food? Bree: Are you doing drugs? Andrew: What? Bree: Change in behavior is one of the warning signs and you have been as fresh as paint for the last six months. That would explain why youre always locked in the bathroom. Danielle: Trust me, that is not what he is doing. Andrew: Shut up. Mom, Im not the one have a problem here, right? Youre the one who is acting like shes running for mayor of Stepford. Bree: Rex. Seeing that youre the head of this household, I would really appreciate you saying something. Rex: Pass the salt. Mary Alice Young: Three days after my funeral, Lynette replaced her grief with a much more useful emotion. Indignation. Lynette: Tom, this is my fifth message and you still havent called me back.

Well, guess what, the kids and I want to have some fun, too, so unless you call me back by noon, we are getting on a plane and joining you. Boy: Mum. Lynette: Not now, honey, Mommys threatening Daddy. No. Where are you brothers? Natalie Kline: Lynette Scavo! Lynette: Crap! Hi, dont believe it! Natalie Kline: Lynette! How long has it been? Lynette: Years! How are you? Hows the firm? Natalie Kline: Good. Everyone misses you. We all say that if you hadnt quit, youd be running the place by now. So, hows domestic life? Dont you just love being a mom? Mary Alice Young: And there it was. The question that Lynette always dreaded. Lynette: Well, to be honest. Mary Alice Young: For those who asked it, only one answer was acceptable. So Lynette responded as she always did. She lied. Lynette: Its the best job Ive ever had. 妙语佳句，活学活用 1. osso buco: An Italian dish made of veal shanks braised with olive oil, white wine, stock, onions, tomatoes, garlic, anchovies, carrots, celery and lemon peel.
