Mary Alice (Brenda Strong) narrates how Renee (Vanessa Williams) is afraid she won't be the centre of attention anymore and so she's decided to keep the tradition she had of throwing a Hallowe'en party in New York. It's not for children since you can't swear in front of them. Tom's (Doug Savant) mother, Allison (Lois Smith) asks Lynette (Felicity Huffman) to buy her some handcream. She asks Allison to wake Paige up at 3. Paul (Mark Moses) takes his wife, Beth (Emily Bergl) to a counsellor, who tells him he should "date" his wife. She confesses she's still a virgin.
Susan (Teri Hatcher) admits to Mike (James Denton) what she was doing on the web in her lingerie and he's frustrated he can't provide for his family. He should have taken the job in Alaska. She tells him Paul is blackmailing her into selling their house and he wants to hit him with a hammer. Susan stops him, she'll take care of Paul herself.
Juanita (Madison La Garza) brags how she amassed two pillowcases of candy last Hallowe'en. She finds Gaby's (Eva Longoria Parker) necklace in Grace's (Cecilia Balagot) room and takes it. Gaby tells her she didn't steal it, but she gave it to Grace as she's "poor." Next time they're at Aunt Rosie's, Juanita can "recover" the gold earrings she's missing, since Juanita's good at "recovering" things.
Lynette returns home to find Paige is still asleep and Allison accuses Lynette of shouting at her. It's so obvious there's something wrong with her, but Tom refuses to believe it, until she goes missing after going to the market to buy more candy.
Susan visits Paul with a basket of muffins and after finding a thumb-tack hole in the wall from the calendar, she advises him he's in breach of his lease agreement and has 60 days to vacate her house. She takes a muffin and pounds on it with the hammer, warning him that's what will happen to him. (NB watch out for the muffin disappearing from the counter top in the next shot.) She doesn't know if there are raisins in the muffins as she has rats.
Keith (Brian Austin Green) takes Bree (Marcia Cross) to see his apartment. She's surprised as she was expecting a bachelor pad, not potpourri. He has a female roomate. Paul informs one of the mother's from Susan's school about her "extra curricular activities" and gets her fired.
Lynette finds several bottles of handcream in Allison's case and Tom insists she's fine because she recalls everything that happened when he was at Camp Kickapoo. He won't take her to the doctor, just as he refused to see one when he was depressed. Bree is reassured by Keith's roommate that there's nothing more between them. Bree finds a letter from State Corrections addressed to Keith. Apparently, Renee knows he's on probation for assault. He defended his girlfriend at the bar. Renee asked the bartender before she went out with him. Renee suggests Bree have an argument with him and if he hits her, then she'll know he's violent.
Gaby makes a princess outfit for Grace and when Juanita sees her in it, she wants one too. Gaby makes her go as a dog because she knows the dog will get more candy than some "little Mexican girl!" (But Grace is Mexican too!) Beth pays Paul a weird compliment after their date and he tells her he needs someone he can trust by his side, before he misread the signals and kisses her. She slaps him and he wants her to leave.
Renee dresses as Marilyn Monroe at her party and Keith doesn't recognize who she is, even after she sings "Happy Birthday, Mr President." He calls her Michelle Obama. (Well he knows who she is!) Lee (Kevin Rahm) also turns up dressed as Marilyn. Bree receives unwelcomed advances from a man at the party, she's dressed as a cheerleader and asks Keith to deal with him. He loses his temper and tells Bree that's who he really is. Bree says everyone comes with baggage and tells him she's the Fairview lush.
Juanita cuts Grace's hair when she gets the crown stuck in it, after she sees Gaby hug Grace when she gives her a candy. Carlos (Richard Antonio Chavira) calls Lynette to pick up Allison and Tom turns up to witness her slap Lynette. Gaby smashes up her house with MJ's club and is stopped by Beth with a gun, telling Susan to leave her husband alone. Beth and Paul consummate their marriage.
Juanita asks Gaby what is special about Grace and Carlos tells Gaby she has to stop seeing Grace for a while, they have to protect their daughter. Gaby replies they're both their daughters. Mike leaves for Alaska or he'll end up killing Paul if he stays. Tom takes Allison to an assisted living facility.
Mary Alice ends by saying that people are in fear, some are worrying, some are learning the truth, others are being sent away. "The world is a scary place -- it's even more terrifying when we have to face it alone."
