Desperate Housewives S5 - Carlos' new job offer

A scene from episode 5x11 "Home is the Place." Gaby tries to get Carlos to accept a very intriguing job offer, but he'd rather work with the blind instead. Very funny scene between Gaby and Carlos.

"Ive worked with the blind for 5 years! Trust me its not that fulfilling..." Hahaha love Gaby

I love their secret trash can conversation

[@mrhubertlouis1]

MikeMJPMUNCH Literally how I talk with my friends Pointing finders at random objects so everyone else has no idea what we’re actually talking about

I’m not mad at Gaby for insisting he take the job. She kept the family afloat for 5 years. She sold so much of their things and we all know how materialistic she is. She deserved a break.

[@MoreImbaThanYou]

A break is one thing. Demanding her husband to take a job that he knows will crish him in order to have fancy shoes and dresses is something else entirely. Also, being blind was not Carlos' fault. Weaponizing that against him is just messed up on so many levels.

@@MoreImbaThanYou ya'll love seeing women be the nanny to her husband.

[@MoreImbaThanYou]

@@jesswhycamarz Not as much as you seem to love spoiled wifes that exploit their husbands by guilt-tripping them. At least she looks pretty. Not much more going for her tbh, as she is is a bottom-tier human. Getting a job herself doesn't even come up here.

[@jesswhycamarz]

@@MoreImbaThanYou you are so fucking weird to assume to know all of this about a women who spoke 1 sentence in a 1 minute video. just say you hate women and go

[@MoreImbaThanYou]

@@jesswhycamarz First: She speaks more than one sentence in this four-minute video. Second: I watched the whole show. Twice. You should try watching the show again as well, then you will notice how terrible most persons on this show are. But considering you, a person who defends Gaby, seem to be incredibly fast to assume misogyny in everyone and everything who doesn't agree with you doesn't suprise me at all. You even said she was materialistic in your opening post and seemingly try to use that as shield. Like she is privileged to be materialistic because what? because she is a woman? On a scale from 1 to sexist, how would you rate yourself?

I love the dinner scenes in this show... guaranteed to make u laugh and feel uncomfortable ☺☺

[@jwrobin21]

Gaby's definition and usage of the of the word NO. MORE MONEY and I will say YES.

[@andreamajoros7669]

Many rich people and actually actors choose to do well-paid jobs and in their free time they do the job they like (e.g. givin lectures, playing classics in theaters, donate, doing charity work). Having a good job and helping people in their free time is not a bad idea.

[@_chapternumberone_8782]

so you seriously think you can be a CFO of a company and do charity work in your non existing free time while spending time with your children..you do live in your own little bubble don’t ya

Stories to tell other CEO's in HELL, that is a great line for what is going on during COVID 19

[@call2872]

You can't blame Carlos for seeking personal fulfillment. A career in corporate world is unlikely the place to find self-actualization.

[@apieceoflife2732]

Yes,when your family keep struggling

[@akashbansal461]

Carlos always wants Gabby to compromise. She gave up everything for him. She did so much for him and now that it's his time to provide for his family, he wants to do social work. Lol. So selfish. Gabby deserves good things.

[@jesswhycamarz]

Yup. she didn’t want to have kids and most definitely didn’t want to live a struggle lifestyle, I mean who does? Carlos can be a brat too

[@pandakatiefominz]

Gabby cheated on him and cares more about expensive shoes than her husband's happiness

[@Eatingwithwee]

Gabby is a gold digger …

[@nybsbfan18]

Well their guests don't have a united front...lol

It'll be a great story to tell all the CEOs in hell! I love that Carlos is not materialistic! Gaby is hilarious.

As much as I like where Gabi and Carlos end up...sounds like a wife swap here wouldn't have been a crazy idea...

[@NickyMorris]

You can't live in a big house, pay the bills and support your family working for "pencils" lol. Personal fulfillment is amazing but if you have to take care of your family that should be first. Yes, she can get a job and help and eventually does so, but his priorities at the moment should be paying to keep his family taken care of.

[@alicianieto2822]

@@NickyMorris Wel...call me crazy, but there is a difference between a family being taken care of and the level of life and luxury this guys have.

[@_chapternumberone_8782]

you dont have to be a millionaire to take care of your family. gaby was and is always selfish. If she’s the one who wants all this luxury then its on her to work for it. Carlos could easily live a simpler life.

[@Chris-hp9be]

Carlos needs to man up and provide for his family. If you cannot provide (or do not want to provide in this case) do not have kids and family in the first place...

[@dreamerdreamer2978]

He could provide for his family while working for community center. A lot of people in the world live with little amount of money. The problem was Gaby wanted them to live above average.

[@Kubulek17]

Dreamer Dreamer they live in a suburban house in an upper middle class area. They had a mortgage to pay. He’s got 2 kids which both went to a private school.

yeah, Maria eventually killed Bradley. It was probably a few weeks later, after Gaby found out he cheated on Maria

How did the makers turned a beautiful woman like Gabriel into an unattractive woman...?

[@aryastark111]

@Maeva Chachou I know..but in these look Gaby didn't look good...

[@bifa5414]

@@aryastark111 Every woman can be beauiful if she takes care of herself, has money and time to do that. That was the point of Gabby's transformation here. Makers took away from her money, time and need for taking care of herself to show that she isn't any different from women you see on the street, in shop, etc.

[@crisvanfan]

Because they were broke for a long time she didn't have the money to be glamorous

[@sandhitalenoir6057]

I dont know..she still looks soooo beautiful

[@Tuepfely]

Unattractive? Where? xD They just didn't do make up, fancy clothes and hairstyles on her, maybe even changed the lighting. Do you never wonder why everyone on TV is beautiful but you never see such beautiful people on the streets? It's because movie stars make-up costs up to sometimes over a thousand dollars. Most women will look like a knock out after this procedure. Still think that Eva looks stunning, but just more "average"; like a "real" woman.

[@MoreImbaThanYou]

"You get that job that will crush your soul so I can buy fancy, expensive shoes and dresses again." Gabrielle is a terrible human being. Was funny when I watched the show back when it originally aired, but now, while I am re-watching, I just feel sorry for Carlos. Despite him being anything but an angel, he at least TRIED to be a better person. And everytime he does, Gaby destroys those attempts. But hey, a man gotta provide while his lazy ass wife deserves to have nice things, right? Nothing sexist about that at all.

[@diamond852]

You again. You do realise your angel Carlos physically assaulted Gaby and a host of other people during the course of your show, right? Do you know that Gaby, who was accustomed to a certain lifestyle, sacrificed that lifestyle for him for 5 years? Do you know Carlos tampered with her birth control after they both agreed there wouldn't be kids in this marriage? Not to mention how he stole from Gaby's husband Victor Lang and hid money from Gaby in secret accounts? Seek a qualified therapist who can help you understand your need to see women suffer and your inability to hold men accountable. Those traits are not healthy.

[@MoreImbaThanYou]

@@diamond852 "My angel Carlos"? I even argued in the other thread, that almost all people in the show are terrible people. But sure, do a strawman. And wich therapist should I ask? The ones I work with in a mental health clinic? Or the ones I studied psychology with? :) I am gonna change your world view now: Men suffer as well.
