Susan nearly despairs by the time Mike finally proposes again, then proudly announces she's finally getting married and fast. Gabrielle can't make it because of her own wedding to mayor Victor Lange. It soon appears that it's on the very same day. She 'stole' most of the arrangements for Susan's long-planned and fast-canceled wedding. After some fighting and some wedding gibbers with Susan, the brides make up and impulsively agree on a double wedding, but after the wine wears out regret it in the morning. Mike offers to play the bad guy so Susan doesn't have to come clean herself. Victor refuses to reschedule and would rather pay for Mike and Susan to do so. Carlos finds himself evicted at 24 hours notice by Mr. Sims' son who mumbled something about his 'spiritual recovery'. Edie sees a chance to reel her lover in by putting him up temporarily and pretending she has a positive pregnancy test. Seeing how excited he gets about their future son offers to start trying to conceive one. Tom invites his college buddy Scott McKinney, now a relational therapist, to help his marriage through the Rick crisis (which Lynette still denies), without telling her. However, she sees through the ploy within a minute and gives him the silent treatment. His "it's talking or sex" is answered with a most loveless, unhealthy 'rape' which lands them in doctor Shiller's hospital office, where they start talking again but get a new troublesome subject: Lynette is diagnosed with two forms of a serious disease.
