    • Trivia
      The on-screen credit for Marcia Cross during the opening credits was mistakenly omitted for the original airing of this episode. As a part of the main cast, on-screen credit is according to contract obligated to be present, regardless if the actor is present in the actual episode or not, thus, although by mistake, this error was a breach of Marcia Cross's contract by the production company. The credit has been re-inserted during re-editing of the episode for the DVD-release and subsequent syndication, in between Felicity Huffman and Eva Longoria.
    • Quotes

      Mary Alice Young: [VOICE OVER] At 5:15 Edie called to tell the girls her husband came home. She never got through to anyone though. Gaby didn't pick up because she was watching the girls take their orders. Lynette was out with Stella laughing and sharing stories and enjoying it. Bree was outside showing her future son-in-law color samples for the house and smiling politely when they disagreed. And Susan didn't answer because she was enjoying a cup of tea and what it was like to be alone.
