"Being Alive" is the 113th episode of the ABC television series, Desperate Housewives. It is the second episode of the show's sixth season and aired on October 4, 2009.
Angie and Nick start questioning Danny on where he went after the wedding and he tells them he went out drinking. Lynette is keeping her pregnancy secret from the kids. Katherine tells Orson that Mike and Susan's marriage will not last because Mike only feels sorry for Susan, and that he will come back to her. Bree and Karl have sex.
Mrs. McCluskey has acquired a boyfriend, Roy. One day they are strolling on the sidewalk and she tells him she loves him. Just as he is about to respond, he sees Julie Mayer lying in a bunch of bushes.
Everyone tries to figure out who would attack Julie. Karen and Carlos both turn to look at Danny, who is watching from his door step. Carlos thinks it is odd that the Bolens are not outside like the rest of them, Orson then says that they were outside but only for a minute. Carlos reveals that he saw Danny and Julie coming out of a movie theater so they think it is best to get to know them better. Angie and Nick confront Danny about where he was when Julie was strangled, Danny says he has nothing to do with that and he likes Julie. He said he maybe was in the park, he doesn't really remember because he drank a lot and it was very fuzzy, Nick tells Danny that he couldn't have been there because he drove by the park and he didn't see him there. Angie decides that they need to start making friends with the neighbors. Karen is debating on whether she should tell the police that she saw Julie and Danny fighting. Tom, Orson, and Carlos tell Nick they are going to start up a neighborhood watch then question him on Danny's relationship with Julie.
Meanwhile, at the hospital it is made clear that Julie will not die, but she will be unconscious for some weeks. The doctor is about to give her an X-ray, and Lynette says he can't because she's pregnant. The other day Lynette and Julie had a talk and Julie thinks she's pregnant, but isn't sure. Susan is mad at Lynette for not telling her. Later, they have a talk in which Lynette tells Susan that Julie confided in her as she saw Lynette crying about her impending pregnancy. Susan is happy that Lynette is pregnant, but wonders why she was crying. Lynette tells Susan that she doesn't want this pregnancy, with her working and Tom in school, and reveals she's been considering abortion, but Susan talks her out of it, telling Lynette that children are a gift, and that she has been so lucky after nearly losing her children (MJ in the car crash and Julie at the hands of a strangler). It is enough to change Lynette's mind about aborting her pregnancy.
