Murphy, who has a vendetta against Bree as he believes she’s responsible for Chuck’s death, writes Bree’s house number on the map and later shows it to her at the police station. Trip Weston later sees Bree struggling to cope and agrees to become her lawyer, much to the dismay of Murphy.

Lee and Susan begin to sort through Mike’s belongings and Susan becomes curious when Lee finds a locked box. Lee tells her that he should be the one to open it alone as if it’s a bad secret then it’s best for Susan not to know about it. Susan is later shocked when Lee leaves with the box, telling her it’s best if she doesn’t know what’s inside it. Susan goes to Julie for advice, who tells her that it’s better not to find out as it may tarnish her memory of Mike. Susan ignores the advice and demands that Lee tells her what’s inside. He tells her that every month Mike sent out a check to a woman, children’s drawings also appear to be in the box, making Susan assume that Mike had a secret child. Susan and Julie later head out to find out who the woman is, but they’re shocked when the woman runs a care home and that the checks were for Mike’s autistic sister Laura. Susan wonders why Mike would keep Laura a secret from her. The following morning, Susan comes downstairs to find Julie still awake and reading through Mike’s things, she tells Susan that Mike only kept Laura a secret because his mother, Adele, had given Laura away as she knew she wouldn’t be able to cope with her and that she’s regretted it ever since. Susan is relieved to find out that Mike only kept it a secret because Adele asked him to, as she didn’t want the family thinking bad of her. Julie begins to cry and tells Susan that she doesn’t want to make the same mistake with her child just because it’s an inconvenience; she then tells Susan that she wants to keep the baby.
