- Susan Mayer: Hey Paul
- Paul Young: Hi Susan
- Susan Mayer: I got to say, I was a little surprised to see Mary Alice's award for sale. She got it for doing charity work, from the Chamber of Commerce.
- Paul Young: Zach and I are moving. We don't need to carry any more with us than is absolutely necessary.
- Susan Mayer: That makes sense. Still, I just want to make sure you didnt want to keep it, for Zach, something to remember his mother by.
- Paul Young: Zach doesn't need a piece of glass to remember his mother. I'm out of newspaper. Here, let's call it ten bucks for everything.
- Susan Mayer: Great. Speaking of Zach, I haven't seen him around lately.
- Paul Young: He's been a bit depressed. I thought he could use a change of scenery, so I sent him to stay with relatives.
- Susan Mayer: Oh, which ones?
- Paul Young: You don't know them.
- Susan Mayer: So, how'd you get the fat lip?
- Paul Young: The usual way. Asking too many questions.

- Mary Alice Young: Suburbia is a battleground, an arena for all forms of domestic combat. Husbands clash with wives, parents cross swords with children, but the bloodiest battles often involve women and their mothers-in-law.
- Gabrielle Solis: Thank you, Yoa Lin
- Juanita Solis: I don't see why you have her
- Gabrielle Solis: It's a big house. I need help.
- Juanita Solis: It's only called help when you do some of the work yourself.
- Gabrielle Solis: I supervise.
- Juanita Solis: You pay her $300 a week. That's $15,000 a year. Carlos, you always say how you're not putting enough away for retirement!
- Carlos Solis: You know, baby, if would be a good idea if we cut back on expenses.
- Gabrielle Solis: You expect me to take care of this place all by myself?
- Carlos Solis: Other women manage...
- Carlos Solis: Mmmmm... that's nice...
- Gabrielle Solis: You like that?
- Carlos Solis: Oh yeah.
- Gabrielle Solis: God, I'm gonna miss this, Carlos.
- Carlos Solis: What do you mean?
- Gabrielle Solis: Well, since, I'm gonna have to be doing the cooking, and the cleaning, and all the shopping, like the other wives...
- Carlos Solis: Mmmm hmmm
- Gabrielle Solis: I'm going to be exhausted at night, just like all the other wives, til I build up my stamina, of course, but that might take a couple of years.
- Gabrielle Solis: Did you find out where Zach is?
- Susan Mayer: No, but I can tell you this much. He's not staying with relatives.
- Lynette Scavo: I'm not surprised that he's playing it close to the vest. Paul knows we're on to him.
- Bree Van De Kamp: Zach said Mary Alice killed herself because of something that he had done, something bad. Is there anyone else who'd know what he was talking about?
- Susan Mayer: No. That's why we have to find him. It's the only way we'll know the truth.
- Bree Van De Kamp: It just doesn't make any sense. Zach is such a sweet kid. I can't imagine him doing anything that terrible.
- Gabrielle Solis: Well, he did break into your house. I mean, the kid is obviously troubled in some way.

- Mary Alice Young: The search for power begins when we're quite young. As children, we're taught that the power of good triumphs over the power of evil. But as we get older, we realize that nothing is ever that simple. Traces of evil always remain.
