Susan goes to Gabby and tells her about Juanita. Gabby says she'll talk to her and she won't tell anyone that MJ is getting beat up by a little girl. Susan corrects her by saying just a girl, not little.

Karen asks Katherine if she's been able to find anything out about Dave. Katherine tells her she doesn't have enough information to narrow her search. She is also a little hesitant since Dave has helped her out with her sprinkler system, but Karen convinces her that no one will find out about their investigation.

Karen and Katherine take Edie out to try to get more information about Dave. Edie doesn't know anything about where he grew up or went to school and after being pushed by Karen, she gets uncomfortable and tells them she doesn't want to talk about it anymore.

Dave sees Tom cleaning out his garage and stops to talk. Dave asks Tom if he wants to come over later and watch the game on his mega TV. Tom says he wishes he could, but Lynette really wants him to finish cleaning. Lynette comes out and sees Tom is still trying to hang on to stuff he'll never use. She tells him to part with it so they can park at least one car in their two car garage. Dave sees Tom's bass guitar and asks if he still plays. Tom says he used to, but not anymore. Dave tells him he plays the drums and asks him to come over later to jam and Tom says yes.

Dave comes over to jam with Tom and Lynette walks in. Tom excitedly tells her that they're going to put together a garage band with Mike on guitar and Orson on keyboards. He tells her that he only need weekends to practice and maybe play a few bars. Lynette reminds Tom that he doesn't have time and he said he wanted to spend more time with the family. Tom starts to cave, but Dave nudges him to not give in.
