Well, if you listened to my podcast from last week you are aware that Edie Britt (aka Nicollette Sheridan) had been involved in a tragic car crash/electrocution on the last episode of Desperate Housewives.
Ladies and Gentlemen…….I am sorry to break the news to you…….Edie is dead.
She died on the street as a crowd of people gathered around her (just the way she would’ve like it 🙂 after her car accident. After her death, the other housewives and Mrs. McClusky take a trip to visit Edie’s son Travers to break the news of his mothers death. Along with the urn, their car trip is composed of stories of Edie and the unknown acts of kindness and support that she had shown each woman that were not publicly known. Susan told of how she met Edie and how she was the first one to break the news that her husband was having an affair. Lynette told of Edie’s incredible kindness when she took her to chemo and Gabby’s was about the two of them going clubbing together. Bree told of how Edie visited Orson while he was in jail and Mrs. McClusky told of how much Edie truly loved her son and wanted the best for him.
At the end of the episode the housewives are trying to figure out where to dump Edie’s ashes and they end up scattering them along Wisteria Lane in each of their yards. They go around and each say a word to describe Edie: sexy, beautiful, strong, one-of-a-kind.
So, thank you Edie for being the promiscuous housewife, the husband stealer, and the blonde bombshell. Goodbye Edie. We will miss you.
P.S. I can’t help but wonder now that Edie is gone, what will happen to Dave Williams (her husband) since she was the only one who knew of his attempted murder scheme….guess we’ll just have to wait and see!
