22nd Denouement: Paul Young returns to Wisteria Lane. He was released from prison after Felicia Tilman, who had only faked her death to get Paul to prison, was stopped and reviewed by police for frenzy. After Felicia is in prison, Paul confesses to her to have committed the murder of her sister, but only with lip movements, so that only Felicia sees it. To everyone's amazement, Paul also has a new wife: Beth. In reality, Beth is the daughter of Felicia Tilman, whom she set on Paul to get revenge on him. Gradually, however, Beth develops feelings for Paul, which leads to Beth turning her mother against her. Back in his old street, Paul is now looking for revenge. He wants to open a center for the rehabilitation of prisoners and therefore buys houses from the street. This approach met with great rejection from the rest of the residents of Wisteria Lane. After all, Paul bought enough houses to carry out his plan. When he is supposed to be honored by the mayor for special achievements, a riot breaks out, resulting in a mass panic. The evening after the riot, Paul is shot. At first it remains unclear who the perpetrator is. When Paul finds out through the police in the hospital that Beth is Felicia's daughter, he first assumes that she shot him and wants to get revenge on her. However, he later realizes that it was not Beth but his son Zach who wounded him. Ultimately he confesses to Beth that he killed Martha Huber, but she doesn't want to believe him. When Beth later visits her mother in prison, she realizes that Beth has fallen in love with Paul and rejects her. Desperate, Beth shoots herself in the head with a pistol in the emergency room and dies. Since Beth has died, Felicia is released from prison and seeks other ways to harm Paul. First she tries to win his trust by pretending to want to bury Beth's ashes by scattering the ashes in a place where Beth used to like to be. However, she does not scatter her daughter's ashes with Paul, but rather picks them up in an urn and talks with them from then on. Your new plan is to poison Paul. To do this, she mixes antifreeze into the meals Susan cooks for Paul. After Paul collapses, he realizes he was poisoned and first suspects Susan. However, with Mike's help, she can prove her innocence. Shortly before he finally leaves Wisteria Lane, Felicia knocks him down. She then tortures Paul by tying him up and giving him an infusion of antifreeze, which is supposed to slowly kill him. Meanwhile, Paul confesses to her to have killed Martha Huber, much to the delight of Felicias, who records his confession on tape. Susan discovers Paul and is able to save him. Paul then chokes Felicia, but Susan convinces him to let her go, believing he is not a murderer. When the police called by Susan arrive, Paul confesses to Martha Huber's murder and is taken away. Meanwhile, Felicia is on the run with her daughter's ashes. She dies shortly afterwards when she knocks over the urn and rushes into a truck because her view was blocked by the air conditioning blowing up the ashes.
