This week, we realize there are not one, but three dangerous psychopaths on Wisteria Lane!

We find out Nick was the undercover agent on Angie's tail. Rather than turn her in, her convinced her to go into hiding with him and raise Danny as his own. Patrick learns from Danny (who has no idea who Patrick really is) that Nick likes to go jogging, so that night, Patrick runs Nick down with his car! Nick is sure that it was Patrick and urges Angie to take Danny and flee for safety. Danny isn't convinced, but he agrees to hide.

The doctors want to put Nick into an induced coma, so he asks her to join Danny at their safe house. Too late! She goes home to find Patrick waiting for her! Patrick tells her, "You are going to do me a favor. Just do what I want, baby," he says. "And I'll let you [and Nick] both live."

Gaby wants Carlos to buy her a chalet, but he tells her that "all our money is tied up in a business deal." She grills their business manager, who spills the beans about the loan to Mike. Gaby stops by, thinking Susan is in dire need, and is shocked when Susan shows off their new piano. It's inherited, but Susan wants the chance to gloat about her big "splurge," which is thanks to Mike's "big cash infusion." Gaby tells her the truth: "Carlos loaned Mike the 50 grand." Susan can't believe Mike would rather borrow money from Carlos than take any from her, so the women scheme to have the men fess up. Gaby leads Mike to believe that Carlos and Susan are having an affair, while Carlos gets madder and madder to learn of Mike's extravagant purchases. The men finally admit the truth and Susan makes Mike promise to never "freeze me out like this" again. He reluctantly hands over his financial paperwork.

Eddie arrives at the Scavos with groceries in hand. Lynette is impressed, until Eddie attacks Porter for calling his mother a "bitch!" Eddie explains he can't stand to see Lynette disrespected. "What happened today can never happen again," she tells Eddie. "I grew up with an alcoholic mother. I know what it feels like to be angry all the time." Tom is incensed to hear about the attack, but Lynette defends the boy: "Eddie comes from an abusive home, we have to expect that he has some baggage." Tom agrees to pay for Eddie to see a therapist, who is definitely understating when he tells Lynette that Eddie has a lot of issues. He's not optimistic about progress, unless they get Eddie's mother, Barbara, involved. But when Lynette goes to see her, a neighbor tells her, "No one's seen her for days."

Bree begins to wonder about Sam when she sees him arguing with a woman who works at the grocery store. Bree stops by the store to question the woman and we're shocked -- but not too surprised, really -- to find out that she's Sam's mother! "Are you aware that Sam goes around telling people that you're dead," Bree asks.

The woman mentions a letter Rex sent when Sam was four, offering Sam a better life and asking for full-time custody. Sam found the letter a few months ago. "When he realized he could have lived all those years with his dad in a fancy house, he was beyond livid." Bree tells Sam she's met his mother and he loses it. "If she had loved me, she would have let me live the life that I was entitled to," he shouts as he throws a vase across the room. Bree apologizes to Andrew: "You were right from the start, I never should have trusted him." Bree confesses it won't be that easy to cut Sam out of their life: "I'm afraid of him."
