Mary Alice Young, having a perfect family life, suddenly shotted herself. This surprised all of people including her closest friends-former business strong woman Lynette Scavo, single mother Susan Mayer, former model Gabrielle Solis, model housewife Bree Van De Kamp and so on.
In addition, Susan met the new neighbour, a very handsome plumber Mike Delfino. Her daughter Julie encouraged her to take action first. But Susan wasn't the only one who had crush on Mike. Oft-divorced Edie Britt became the first to step forward. To find out the truth, Susan slipped into Edie's home and accidentally caused a fire. But she made certain that Mike was not the man to spend the night in Edie home.
Lynette was spinned off into all directions by her three sons. And her husband Tom returned home from business trip in advance and she felt relieved. But Tom requested sex without protection, while Lynette was so scared to be pregnant that she was furious.
Gabrielle secretly dated with her lover, the young gardener John while Carlos wasn't in.
Bree's husband can't tolerate her perfection for every moment and demanded for a divorce.
Mary Alice's son Zach found his father Paul Young secretly buring something under the poor when he awakened at midnight. Susan found a note of the day when Mary committed suicide with other persons so that they became suspicious.
