《绝望的主妇》精讲11

[00:00.50]Hey. So, what did Carl say when you confronted him?

[00:02.71]You'll love this. He said...

[00:05.21]"it doesn't mean anything. It was just sex."

[00:08.50]Ah, yes, page one of the philanderer's handbook.

[00:10.51]Yeah, and then he got this zen look on his face, and he said, "you know, Susan,

[00:13.68]most men live lives of quiet desperation."

[00:16.68]Please tell me you punched him.

[00:17.68]No, I said, "really? And what do most women lead

[00:20.18]lives of noisy fulfillment?"

[00:22.10]Hmm. Good for you.

[00:23.31]I mean, of all people, did he have to bang his secretary? I had that woman over for brunch¹.

[00:27.19]It's like my grandmother always said -- an erect² penis doesn't have a conscience.

[00:30.28]Even the limp ones aren't that ethical³.

[00:32.90]This is half the reason I joined the NRA.

[00:34.78]Well, when Rex started going to those medical conferences,

[00:37.28]I wanted it in the back of his mind that he had a loving wife at home

[00:40.58]with a loaded Smith & Wesson.

[00:43.00]Lynnie, Tom's always away on business. Do you ever worry he might?

[00:46.50]Oh, please, the man's gotten me pregnant three times in four years.

[00:50.00]I wish he was having sex with someone else.

[00:55.88]So, Susan, is he going to stop seeing that woman?

[01:01.51]I don't know.

[01:06.98]I'm sorry, you guys. I just...

[01:11.27]I just don't know how I'm going to survive this.

[01:15.49]Listen to me.

[01:17.20]We all have moments of desperation.

[01:21.70]But if we can face them head-on, that's when we find out just how strong we really are.

[01:34.88]Susan. I was just saying Paul wants us to go over on friday.

[01:37.80]He needs us to go through Mary Alice's closetand help pack up her things.

[01:40.68]He said he can't face doing it by himself.

[01:42.81]Sure. That's fine.

[01:44.98]Are you okay?

[01:46.60]Yeah.

[01:48.60]I'm just so angry.

[01:50.61]If Mary Alice was having problems,she should have come to us.

[01:53.11]She should have let us help her.

[01:54.69]What kind of problems could she have had?

[01:56.99]She was healthy, had a great home, a nice family.

[01:59.49]- Her life was... - Our life.

[02:04.49]No, if Mary Alice was having some sort of crisis, we'd have known.

[02:07.71]She lives 50 feet away, for god's sakes.

[02:10.29]Gabby, the woman killed herself.

[02:12.59]Something must have been going on.
