- I was watching again the second season on DVD and watching this scene make me always feel so emotional. Is one of my favorite scenes in the entire series. I leave the ending complete because too I like the final words for this episode.
Ripped from my own dvds.
Gabrielle and Carlos are finally happy with their new (and adopted) baby girl, Lily. But suddenly the birth mother wanted her baby back and Gabby isn't ready to said goodbye forever to her only important thing to change but they can't do nothing, only see how the other family leaves.
THIS CLIP IS ONLY FOR THE PURPOSE OF ENTERTAINING, COPYRIGHT IS FOR BUENA VISTA, I ONLY SHOW IT FOR THE LOVE OF THE SERIES, PLEASE DON'T SUE ME.
"Carlos, do something!" :( :(
That always gets me. And Carlos is such a man's man too, and yet here he can legally do nothing.
Yes, the surrender in his face is heartbreaking. :(
This scene always makes me cry from start to finish, but always extra tears when she says "my husband he sings to her". :'(
Would love if they had done a follow episode however I understand I think why the writers chose not too!
“I don’t want my money back! I want my baby!” 😭💔
Gabby became my favorite houswife after a few seaons (initially Bree was). I loved how she hid her emotions yet was actually very emotional.
I agree! I'll always love Bree, but Gabby really became the most emotionally complex character in the series, I think.
Well, in real life, the people who appear to be the less emotional are usually the most sensitive and bear the strongest emotions. That's why they tend to hide or suppress their emotions, because they know they would be easily hurt.
I loved Bree for the same reason, because I was also good at hiding my emotions, then I discovered that it is not healthy hiding them. People who hurt you they don't get that you are hurt because you don't give them feedback.
Her and Carlos were my favorite couple
She went from my least favorite to number 1! I don’t know why I didn’t like her and Carlos at all in the beginning
And when she says "and my husband, my husband sings to her."
Top tier acting, for sure, I have watched this scene over and over and over, and this whole ending, and it just hits me so so so hard, especially as someone who struggles with alcohol, like Bree. But who really steals the show is Gabby. She's incredible here. I think she should have won an Emmy for it.
This scene has stuck in my mind for over a decade.. the acting is incredible. The emotion from Gabby who swore she never wanted kids. And Carlos being the "macho" husband type not being able to control anything. When he's the one who's wanted kids forever. 🥺
She said "we're gonna give the whole family thing a shot." What if it didn't work out? What if he left her? Lily would have been better off with Carlos and Gabby.
+Kaththee1 Raped her? No that wasn't how Gaby's baby was conceived, Gaby's baby was conceived when her husband replaced her birth control with something else.
J1234 OMG! I also thought that! She said it as if it was a decision more. not important! Stupid Blonde Bitch!! You can't change your mind just because you want to experience motherhood or marriage. You have to be firm in your decisions and live with the consequences. I'M PISSED OFF 😢😡😠
Poor Gaby & Carlos.
+Kaththee1 You wasted your time writing this. We are talking about a show here you idiot. We are not talking about the real life people.
J1234 I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sad!!!!😭😭😭😭😭😥😥😥
Kaththee1 things like that do happen though surrogates decide to give their babies away and the change their mind it happens its hardly drivel stop living in an idealistic world because although these are characters people get attached to them because they can connect to real life situations
"The bad news is that sometimes, the answer is no..." Possibly the harshest reality when it comes to prayer and hope for so many people...
I cannot even imagine being on either side but honestly.. probably it it doesn’t end up happening after all…. Let it be at least my thinking but hey no judging just my thought
Poor Gaby, she's been so unlucky with children. First she gets pregnant against her will because of Carlos and his mother, then she has a miscarriage after she decides to keep it, then her adoptive baby is taken away, then the surrogacy does not work, then her biological child gets switched for another in the hospital AFTER she becomes pregnant when she did not want to, and finally she has to say goodbye to her biological daughter Grace forever.
Omg what ? Juanita isn’t her daughter ?
@@thomasluis5953, it's the major story line for their family in Season 7. Pretty interesting one to watch...unless you like spoilers and I can tell you. LOL!
@@howardchu6302, clearly Thomas doesn't care so tell me! Just hide it below the "Read More" line or something. This is brand new information!
Basically @@fe5018, Gaby's first baby girl was switched at birth by a drunken nurse with another baby that she and Carlos would raised as Juanita. They eventually meet Juanita's biological parents who raised their biological daughter as Grace. Very cool story line.
@@howardchu6302 Oh my god. That's insane. I might've kept watching if I'd known that storyline. Might have to revisit Wisteria Lane.... Thanks 👍
I love how this scene portrays Carlos' love for Gaby. Even though he's sad aswell he knows he can't fall apart because she needs him.. This scene deserves every possible award out there!
I started crying when she says "My husband sings to her"
This scene killed me. Gabby was so shattered and Carlos knew there was nothing they could do. Eva Longoria doesn't get enough credit.
I agree... no disrespect to mothers who put their babies up for adoption, I realize what a heart-wrenching decision that must be... but I don't think it's okay for them to legally have the right to change their mind weeks or even months after the fact... Like you said, the baby's new family has already bonded with them, and formed attachments....
Bayougirl78 you are so right
Bayougirl78 wait, they can change their minds?
midaliase Yeah they can, within the first 48 hours and sometimes anytime they want.
Depends on where you are. But in a lot of states a birth mother has between 30 days and 6 months before the adoption becomes legal and final, so they can change their minds. My friend adopted, the first baby they got they only kept for 4 months, then the mother changed her mind. It was awful.
They have another child now, but for months they were afraid to properly bond with the child, in case it too was taken from them.
Bayougirl78 I agree, they gave the baby/child up and it’s not fair on the new loving family and the child if you do that
this gave me absolute chills, I fucking love Eva Longoria.
“The good news for those who utter these words is that God will hear you and answer your prayer. The bad news is that sometimes the answer is no” .... this quote and the way that Brenda Strong says it still and always will give me the chills
She was so sensitive... Poor Gaby. I love that scene!
@Laura Laukkanen for real
“Sometimes, the answer, is no.” Words that have Resonated through my life ever since, in Brenda Strong’s clear, direct tone.
What makes me really sad in this scene is that I feel like that baby went off and didn't have a good life with her biological parents. It's just a feeling, but it makes me sad.
That's what they purposely chose. If they'd picked a loving quote; 'I really still love her Gaby, I'm sorry' it would've been more complicated, but she said; 'We're eh... gonna give the family-thing a shot.."
That's to make the viewers upset. You can imagine them sitting in a room, going; 'Hey Frank? Frank? The baby's crying again....WHÁT?! Noo, it's your turn...damnit! Get. the. fucking. diapers. Frank, it's your turn. I did it last time!"
Realistically what would’ve happened is the birth mother and her boyfriend will break up again. The birth mom is now a single mom living off welfare always yelling at Lilly cause she can’t be bothered
i like how Carlos just picked Gaby up like she was a toothpick XD
+claretheworm She's a tiny woman any guy can pick her up like that.
Dude is like, really well built, and she's a tiny little thing.
After 8 seasons, this will still always be one of the saddest most tragic scenes of desperate housewives. My heart went out to gabby, she wanted that baby so much and it was just taken away from her. Shame well never see waht kind of girl and relationship lily would be and have with gabby. SHe got juanita and celia instead who she still loved obviously cos they were her girls, even though juanita wasthe baby of someone else after the hospital mix up
watch the scene with sister Marta of episode 15 season 7 .. also one of the best Gabrielle's scenes ..
@Perfect Diamond No, they don't.
@Perfect Diamond Their children had born after Carlos went blind
This is why adoption should be a legally one-way ticket.
setheurovision94 I don't agree. As hard as it is. Birth parents should be able to change their minds
It’s never one way ticket on that every case is different
That's completely outrageous, setheurovision94. How is it different than if Gabby's heartbreak was as the birthmom losing her baby than the adoptive mom losing her baby?
why give your child up in first place? I mean damn keep your kid... that's completely outrageous...
@@Euroviking86, "happened to change your mind", what a casual and indefensibly blasé way to refer to such a complex situation. That "long awaited dream" you're describing isnt some kind of entitlement, especially when what you're advocating for involves snatching the child away from its family. The cruelty in that is to the child ; what youre advocating for would privilege the self-centred desires and ambitions of hopeful adoptive parents over the well-being and best interest of the children. That's messed up.
After an intense episode, the advent of the voiceover in the end kind of hits you in the stomach.. her voice is pure gold, it does justice to the whole show perfectly
Out of all 7 seasons so far this scene with Gabby is by FAR the most powerful it is SO sad but Gabby (Eva) is so good at it that she makes you believe she is actually going through this
Don't forget the scene with the red balloon. She lost her baby and the prison man helps her grieve 😢
I tear up like crazy every time I watch this scene.... And, if it were any other DH character, it probably wouldn't get to me so much... but, it's Gaby... spoiled, shallow, self-centered Gaby... who FINALLY learned to love a baby and wanted to be a mother....and then this happens... *sniff, sniff*
God, I'm crying now.
The acting… I can’t even with Eva Longoria in this scene. Absolutely amazing. People said for the longest time she had the fluffiest storylines. And she pulls this out. Heartbreaking
I can see Gaby's side. My brother and sister in law found a birth mother that wanted to give her son a better life. My brother painted a nursery, bought clothes, got everything ready and was so excited to finally have a baby. Well after the mom gave birth she decided to keep him and it hurt my brother and sister in law. To think your going to have a baby finally after 4 years of heartache and then it being ripped away from you its hard.
THIS is the most heart wrenching Desperate Housewives scene… with every scream from Gabby, a tear breaks through quicker than the last.
"There is a prayer intended to give strength to people faced with circumstances they don't want to accept. The power of the prayer comes from it's insight into human nature. Because so many of us rage against the hand that life has dealt us. Because so many of us are cowardly. And afraid to stand up for what is right. Because so many of us give into despair when faced with an impossible choice. The good news for those who utter these words is that God will hear you and answer your prayer. The bad news is that sometimes the answer is no."
Beautiful
love Eva she is such an amazing actress :)
+kirsty finch She isn't. She was very good in this scene, but she's quite a weak actress compared to the others. When she was next to Bree or Lynette, it was a bit more obvious.
No, this scene would be so much powerful with the suitable actress. I shed more tears than her.
I think Eva Longoria is lucky she's pretty because her acting is so forced and rings false.
I agree! She is an amazing actress, I don't know how people can think she isn't good, did you not just watch the video, the video says it all lol
nosracymmit I think she's successful and you're a nobody commenting on her lol
“He sings to her” I’m crying 😭
Reasons to cry : this scene.
Eva Longoria went up in my esteem after I saw this scene 👏🏾
Same! This scene has really stuck with me through the years; I haven't seen it since it first aired on tv but I've thought of it time and time again over the years.
I cry like a baby every time I see this scene 😩
i never really thought that Eva Longoria was that great an actress until this scene!
Damn those final moments of desperate pleas. Eva can sure act, wish everyone would see that.
What's so sad is when Gaby says all the things she does for Lilly and then she says "I normally never do those things!", because it's so true. She did her best to be a great mom and she got so used to it she never realized you never know what you have until it's gone!
Dang... I don't even watch this show and I'm bawling my eyes out right now... this is heartbreaking and the acting gives me chills.
“Sometimes the answer is no” .... ain’t that the truth
Yes....
that girl better never find out that she could live with carlos and gaby...
I'm so sorry for her... I really don't think Libby will be that good as a mother...
it's crazy knowing these things happen in real life.. I'm not exactly an atheist but i don't want to believe in afterlife if God won't let a baby meet her/his adoptive parents there if a child was taken from them like that. It's just so cruel.
Gaby and carlos have gone through so much ..from a miscarriage..then an adoption which was terminated then having the wrong egg implanted to their surrogate...then having their daughter switched at birth *sigh*
it's a TV show, don't forget !
This happen before baby got switch at birth in the hospital I’m sure this kind of story some people can relate because they went through that it’s sad
"it's too late! we've already fallen in love with her!" wow... great acting.
we're gonna give the whole family thing a shot..." wut a horrible person! she can't do that to them!!! Poor gaby and carlos
"Carlos do something!" how terrible he must've felt in that moment... he's given Gabby the world, but this is the one thing, even he, couldn't control.
So no baby car seat......
Every time I rewatch DHW I feel like Gabby and Carlos should've had a spin-off. Eva Longoria was amazing.
'... sometimes the answer is no ...' Chills! YEARS later, I still remembered that line. I didn't remember the scene it was from anymore, but that line NEVER faded from my mind. Such powerful words!
I know I've commented but here I am once again
This, and the scene where Gabby lets go of the balloon and when she and Lynette are in hospital make me sob. Hard to breathe, tears rapidly flowing and snotty nosed sobbing. Gabby is such a confident Woman but harbours so much hurt. She's more than just a spoiled suburban housewife and that's why I love her
Rewatching my all time favorite serie, I just saw this scene again 😭
It was so well done!!! I still cry every time I see it :(
Her acting was so good that there were tears welling up in my eyes
After all these years, I remember playing it to my media studies class. The entire class fell silent, her acting and the entire scene is one traumatic master piece. Even after all these years, when I watch it, it reduceds me to just such sadness. How this could happen to anyone and the fact she is trying to find the 'right words' is just to much for me to handle. The most ionic tear jerk moment in the last 10 years easily.
The line that makes me cry is when she says Carlos do something
One of the mοst devastating and ruthless moments of the series and in life in general....
I know, right? Eva Longoria's acting just crushed me. Also because I know this totally happens in real life and it's beyond cruel.
One of the saddest scene! I still cry every time i watch it...
this is the most emotinal thing i have ever seen! eva is the most perfect human being that has ever existed. seeing this scene always makes me cry...
Give her an Oscar already
I’ve seen bits and pieces of this show back when it was aired . This made me cry, especially now that I’m pregnant.
I almost cry every time :'(
I felt for gabby...omg she almost made me cry...after all she has done to get a baby...
"It's too late, we've already fallen in love with her"
I had never thought that Gabby would cry because of a baby...
BUT this thing was sooo cute that evenn I fell in love with it... ♥ :'(
This was so heartbreaking 😭
Omg... This is one of the saddest moments in the serie...
,,we‘ve been feeding her & we‘ve been bathing her & we wake up in the middle of the night & we rock her which is crazy because if you knew me i don’t do that, i don’t do that! & my husband he sings to her, he sings so you can’t take her away, it‘s too late, we were already fallen in love with her..‘‘ 💔 no matter how often i watch this scene, i always start crying 💔
I still think this scene would have been better if the other housewives had heard/seen what was going on, and came running out to rally around Gaby....
Bayougirl78 True!
No, it would have been over-the-top.
Once, the animal control service came to my house, because they found the owner of the dog i had found and brought into my house 5 months earlier on the side of a busy road. That dog had completely made herself at home and loved all my other pets and vice versa. I had taken her to the vet to make sure she was fine, and because she had a nasty scar on her back like a badly healed wound.
I couldn't believe i would have to give her away but i understood that if i had lost my dog and someone had rescued her, i would want that dog back and thought it would be unfair of me to keep her. Then the former "owner" of that dog came out of his pick up truck and i immediately understood. He was a hunter, the dog had run away during a hunting trip and it took 5 months for this guy to find her. That made it even harder to give her away to a horrible life. But when the former "owner" of the pet called his dog, the dog ran back into my house and wouldn't go out, with her tail between her leg and she even started pooping herself. That was the last straw. I told the owner that if the dog was that scared of her then there was a reason and that she was either mistreated or badly taken care of and this is why she was scared and that i was going to ask for a full investigation of this man and see how he treated his other dogs. But the animal service control gave me that sad look saying "i get it but that's the law", then when she saw the scar on the dog's back she asked me if i knew what that was and i said that i had no idea and i had found her like this. She asked the owner to explain what the scar was and he said that she had been harpooned by the tushes of a boar. She then asked him to tell her which vet had treated that dog, and the hunter said that he had stitched her back himself. She told him that this was illegal and that under the law of our country an injured dog had to be seen by a professional vet especially when it came to something as bad as an open wound. She asked him when was the last time he took her to a vet and who was the dog's vet to contact that vet right away (as she took her mobile phone out), he told her that he didn't take her to the vet but had a guy coming to give her shots every year.
The animal control lady told me to bring that dog back into my house and told the hunter that until they had decided that the dog was not at risk with the hunter, which was very unlikely (and she said it out loud), the dog was going to stay under my care.
The hunter was going back to his car when she stopped him and said, and this goes for all of your other dogs, which we are going to bring to the shelter until we decide that they are not at risk with you sir.
The man told the lady that he would never let her take his other dogs because he needed them to hunt. And the lady said "this sir, is the worst answer you could have given me" she then told him that he could let her take the dog into the animal control truck or she would call the police and have him arrested for obstruction.
Her, me and a another guy who worked with her took the dog out of the hunter's pickup and put them in the truck and then when the hunter got back into his car cursing and even insulting the woman, she said "And we are now going to escort you back home and check out if there are other dogs there. We are also going to ask you to provide the names of your hunting buddies and we are going to have a look at their dogs as well."
I could have married that woman !
There were three more dogs in the hunter's house, which were three females pregnant because he also ran a puppy mill. The hunter was arrested, his buddies were investigated, all the dogs were taken away and i adopted 5 of them, including the three pregnant females. And used my contacts to have the other 11 dogs adopted as well. And of course the pups were very easy to place into loving families, after what the mother were sterilized because they were clearly exhausted from all the births they had been put through and are still living their last years with me, safe and properly taken care of.
So, fight for what and whom you love. Don't just accept things because the law tells you to.
I just watched this episode again and it still breaks my heart. I can never stop the tears while watching this scene...
Really?... This is the best acting some people have ever seen?... It’s not even Longoria’s best scene. It’s just the most emotional. Actually most of her comic timing scenes are above this in skill.
After all these years, this scene stuck with me. After seeing all the seasons over and over again, this is the one that broke me.
This scene made me cry
Felt Gaby's pain to watch something u love get taken away.
Don't know why but this scene always makes me cry
because of this scene was very pathetic.
This was heartbreaking and really shows Gabby’s character development.
This scene gets me every time!
this was one of the best scenes ever!!!
The saddest thing that's ever happened in Desperate Housewives :(
I cried
I only watched season 1 and 2 and this was the most saddest scene ever! Omg, I felt so sorry for her
the saddest scene of the whole series so far!
this is the saddest thing to happen in the entire series! :(
Shit.. These women make me cry!
i cried my soul out right now.
I always get tears in my eyes watching this...okay, that's a lie; I sob profusely...
Amazing performance, and definitely the most powerful and emotional scene from this show, in my opinion.
on saturday my neighbor had to get rid of his dog so they brought him here.. we were planning on keeping him. i was already so attached to the little guy, and just a couple hours ago my neighbor took him away to give to someone else. :( it reminded me so much of this episode so i youtube'd it. thanks for posting this.
Rewatching desperate housewives for the second time and am two episodes away from this scene. I know its coming and now im afraid to continue because this was so hard to watch the first time. I know im gonna end up crying hard. Poor Gaby and Carlos :(
Mary Alice's words have had such a big impact on my life. Sometimes the answer is no is probably the one sentence that coined my life like no other
“It’s too late! We’ve already fallen in love with her!” That hit hard. My boyfriend has a child and I’m hoping this never happens to us.
This broke my heart
mary alices monolog at the end is just incredible and so powerful
Omg breaks my heart 😢
Oh my God! I NEVER EVER EVER EVER thought Gabby would ever do that. HOLY CRAP! In the first season she was always like "Carlos, you promised no kids" and got so mad when she was pregnant. I mean, she was kind of nice with kids, but this never crossed my mind. It made me cry so bad.
This entire scene 😭 * chefs kiss*
I cried at this scene
Why were they allowed to take her?!?? I never understood this!
They would be the better parents! This is what is wrong with adoption in America! If she had a better chance with them then for reals.
In family court the biological mother always wins even if she isn’t fit to be a parent
I'm Always cry's to this scene
This is the saddest moment of Dh and the best scene Eva Longoria played in this series. I cried so much watching it.
I could never bear watching this scene. Heart-breaking :(
I always dream that I had a baby and someone is taking them away from me and I cry and scream and I wake up with tears in my eyes. I have this dream like more than three times a year since I was a teenager. I never understood why
Well, I'm guessing a baby can represent a 'project' so to say, that you put effort and time in. And people take it away.
Maybe you experience working with demotivating classmates a lot that ditch your hard work and ideas or you find yourself working hard and then the hard work getting rejected.
Or it's the simpl fear of that happening.
When I was at school, I often dreamed of going in slow-motion with people I hate and classmats I worked with.
And then breaking away and running fast. I think that's also an accurate representation of how our projects went. Things would be finished if I did them alone and turn out crappy and half-finished if I did it together with the classmates, as the rules told me to do.
1:42 made me burst into tears
everytime i watch this i cry ! :'(
its when she starts screaming and chasing the car that gets me.
SHES MY BABY! CARLOS DO SOMETHING!
Switch baby at birth, switched embryos, miscarriages, baby taken away, and husband goes blind. This women had it so hard
"Its too late! Weve already fallen in love with her!" Destroyed me. I cant imagine.
this made me cry when i saw it and again watching it now.
