but god, in his infinite wisdom,
gave me a reason to live. 752
Carlos. 753
Ah, he was a beautiful baby. 754
But my husband wasn't much of a father. 755
He never held him. 756
He would yell and scream at him for no reason at all. 757
One night when Carlos was 4,
Diego Solis came home drunk, 758
and he beat my Carlos. 759
Something inside me snapped, 760
and at that moment, 761
I found a way to be strong, 762
so I made sure that Diego Solis never hurt
my son or me ever again. 763
W-what'd you do? 764
Well, if you pray hard enough, 765
god gives you the tools to your salvation. 766
Carlos said that his father
left for a waitress in El Paso. 767
Mm-hmm. That's what he was told. 768
All mothers know they have to protect their children, 769
but some of us take our job
more seriously than others. 770
I don't know why you're telling me this. 771
I think you do. 772
Look, okay, I know you're mad at me, 773
and I'm sorry I didn't stop you
from going out with that guy. 774
I'm not mad at you. 775
I mean, I'm not just mad at you. 776
I'm mostly mad at myself. 777
Okay. 778
I'm mad that I like you so much without
really knowing anything about you. 779
Oh. 780
What do you want to know? 781
What's your favorite food? 782
Mexican. 783
What's your favorite sport? 784
Football. 785
Favorite band? 786
Elvis Costello. 787
That's a guy, not a band. 788
It's a guy with a band. 789
What do you think of me? 790
I'm sorry. Could you repeat that? 791
Why? 792
I don't want to talk about it. 793
Do you realize how insane this looks? 794
Do you even care about me at all?! 795
Did you even care about mom?! 796
You will not talk to me that way. 797
I think I just did. 798
Ow! 799
Mrs. Van de Kamp. 800
Hi, Zach. I just, uh, wanted to see
if everything was all right. 801
Everything's fine. 802
Are you sure? 803
Yes. 804
Well, okay. 805
I'll see you tomorrow, then. 806
I'm sure that you will. 807
People, by their very nature, are always
on the lookout for intruders. 808
What the -- 809
trying to prevent those on the outside from getting in. 810
But there will always be those who force
their way into our lives, 811
just as there will be those we invite in. 812
Hi. 813
But the most troubling of all 814
will be the ones who stand
on the outside looking in... 815
the ones we never truly 816
get to know.
