Synopsis:

A break-in on Wisteria Lane leaves everyone feeling vulnerable, especially Susan, who reluctantly accepts a date with a persistent policeman.


(From ABC)
A break-in leaves the neighbors feeling vulnerable, especially Susan -- who reluctantly accepts a date with a persistent policeman (guest star Steven Eckholdt) after Mike Delfino appears indifferent to her -- and a lonely Bree, who finds herself bonding with Mary Alice's troubled son, Zach. Meanwhile, Lynette and Tom pull out all the stops to get their uncontrollable twins accepted at a prestigious private school, and the unexpected arrival of Carlos' mother (guest star Lupe Ontiveros) puts a crimp in Gabrielle's covert love life.
