Mary Alice Young:
[Voice over] In names the labels we attach to people tell us everything we need to know. [as we see Susan paint Maynard's name on his nursery wall as Mike cradles the baby] If we say she's just a child does this mean she's truly innocent? [as we see Kayla ride in the back seat] Does calling her a drug dealer prove she's purely evil? [as we see Ellie wander the streets coat-less and crying] Will a man known as preacher always practice what he preaches [as we see the priest ponder in his study] Can a man branded a villain possess the qualities of a hero? [as we see Orson look at a picture of himself and Bree] The truth is a name can never really tell you who someone is [as we see Wayne throw water in the face of Adam who is tied to a chair]
