Orson shows up in Season 3, right after poor Mike Delfino gets hit by a car. He’s charming, polite, and he catches Bree’s eye immediately. Bree Van de Kamp thinks she’s found the perfect gentleman.
Spoiler alert: he’s anything but perfect. He’s got a secret that involves a very dead woman named Monique Polier. And, oh yeah, he ran over Mike with his car.
But here’s the thing—Orson isn’t just a villain. He’s a guy who genuinely loves Bree, but he’s also carrying a ton of baggage. His mother is a nightmare, and his past is a haunted house of bad decisions.
