The power goes out on Wisteria Lane, causing a problem for a certain neighbor, Mrs. McCluskey, who’s hiding her husband’s corpse in the freezer. When she takes a fall down the basement stairs she fractures a rib and is taken away by paramedics. At first, she refuses because she’s worried about Gilbert her husband, thawing, but as she’s wheeled into the ambulance, the power comes back on, reassuring her it will be alright. As soon as she’s taken away, the fuse to the freezer blows up, leaving Gilbert to thaw. The Scavo boys are out playing while Tom and Lynette are arguing, and when Parker asks for ice cream and they say no, they decide to go to Mrs. McCluskey’s to take some. While down there, Parker discovers the body of Gilbert and asks his mother to go and visit Mrs. McCluskey in hospital. While visiting, Parker reveals he saw the body, and she explains everything to him, making him fully satisfied. The viewer however, does not hear the explanation she gives him. While looking after the house, Ida Greenberg notices a strange smell and also discovers Gilbert’s body, and Mrs. McCluskey awakens in hospital to have two officers standing by her bed.
