From the post: Gaby Soliz - Homer Simpson in Prada: Say what you will about soap operas in general and Desperate Housewives in particular but tonight's episode was hilarious. Seeing Gaby insensitively fight with men in wheelchairs and exploit her husband's blindness to score better parking spaces was hilarious. She really is like a live-action, female version of Homer Simpson.

From TV Cocktail: Gaby (in her finest) is loading up her groceries. A guy in a wheelchair tells her she can’t park there, she’s taking up spots and he had to park far away. They get in an argument, with her pushing him over the edge by saying that his life is so much easier because he can sit an roll around all day while she has to walk in heels. Yikes. He tries to call the cops and another guy in a wheelchair gets involved. She strong-arms the phone from him and gives him a hefty push down the parking lot and takes off, declaring that it’s official: She’s going to hell.
