[edit] Early life

Gabrielle Marquez was born in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico in 1976, where her family was very poor. She moved to Las Colinas, Texas in her youth, where she confided in a nun about being sexually abused. The nun accused her of lying and told Gaby she should be ashamed of herself; Gaby felt shame for many years until she took her therapist’s advice and returned to the town years later (in "Farewell Letter") to tell the nun she should be disgusted for letting the sexual abuse continue. In "You Gotta Get a Gimmick" it is mentioned that she has a brother and sister. When she was five, her father died of cancer. Since then, her mother had multiple affairs/boyfriends. When Gabrielle was 15 years old, she was sexually assaulted by her stepfather, Alejandro, and left home the next day. Her mother Lucía blamed Gabrielle, thinking she came onto her husband out of jealousy. Five years later, Gabrielle seduced a fashion photographer and became a successful model. She attracted the affections of businessman Carlos Solis, whom she married, and moved to Wisteria Lane in 2003. She and Carlos have three daughters; Grace Sanchez (biological), Juanita (legal) and Celia (biological).

[edit] Overview

Gabrielle Marquez[2] was born in the fictional town of Las Colinas, Texas.[3] Her family is originally from Guadalajara, Mexico.[4] She has a brother and a sister.[5] Her father died of cancer when she was five years old.[6] From that point on, her mother, Lucia (María Conchita Alonso), remarried several times. Lucia's second husband, Alejandro Perez (Tony Plana) sexually abused Gabrielle throughout her teenage years.[7] According to Gabrielle, her mother overlooked the matter,[7] and a nun at her school refused to believe her claims of having been raped.[3] When she was fifteen, Gabrielle ran away to New York City to pursue a career in modeling.[8] Gabrielle achieved significant success, but also earned a reputation for being difficult to work with.[2][9] As her career began to fade,[9] she married wealthy businessman Carlos Solis (Ricardo Antonio Chavira), who proposed after only three dates.[10] They then relocated to Wisteria Lane in the fictional suburb of Fairview, Eagle State, where Gabrielle befriended Susan Mayer (Teri Hatcher), Lynette Scavo (Felicity Huffman), and Bree Van de Kamp (Marcia Cross).

[edit] Season One

In the pilot episode, Gabrielle is unhappy with her marriage to Carlos, whose priority is work. To keep herself entertained, she has an affair with John Rowland (Jesse Metcalfe), her teenage gardener.[10] Carlos suspects that Gabrielle is being unfaithful and he enlists the help of his mother, Juanita "Mama" Solis (Lupe Ontiveros).[11] Mama Solis catches Gabrielle and John having sex and takes a photograph to document Gabrielle's betrayal. However, while fleeing the house, she is hit by a car and Gabrielle is able to dispose of the evidence against her.[12] Mama Solis falls into a coma as a result of the accident and dies a few months later without having the opportunity to tell Carlos about Gabrielle's affair.[13][14] Gabrielle and John end the affair after his mother, Helen (Kathryn Harrold), learns about it.[8] Soon after, Carlos is arrested for importing goods made by slave labor.[15] The government freezes the Solis' accounts, forcing Gabrielle to perform low-wage modeling jobs to pay bills.[16] Carlos is put under house arrest while awaiting trial,[17] during which time the couple faces several financial crises.[18]

Carlos continually asks Gabrielle for a child, as well as a post-nuptial agreement that she will not divorce him while he is in jail. After Carlos physically forces Gabrielle to sign the documents, she reignites her affair with John.[19] Later, Gabrielle discovers that she is pregnant and is unsure of who the father is.[20] John hopes to help take care of the baby, but Gabrielle tells him she will only acknowledge Carlos as the father.[21] Later, Gabrielle realizes that Carlos had tampered with her birth control in order to orchestrate her pregnancy.[22] During Carlos's trial, John admits to his affair with Gabrielle.[23]

[edit] Season Two

With Carlos now in jail and a child on the way, Gabrielle alienates John and attempts to salvage her marriage.[24] Gabrielle and Carlos continue sparring until she apologizes for the affair wholeheartedly for the first time.[25] Hoping to be granted a conjugal visit and eventually get Carlos released on parole, Gabrielle hires David Bradley (Adrian Pasdar), a womanizer lawyer who later professes his love to Gabrielle.[26][27][28] Later, Caleb Applewhite (Page Kennedy), Betty Applewhite's (Alfre Woodard) allegedly violent and mentally ill son, breaks into Gabrielle's home and chases her. She falls down the stairs,[29] resulting in a miscarriage.[30] Afterwards, Carlos is paroled thanks to the influence of a nun named Sister Mary Bernard (Melinda Page Hamilton). Gabrielle objects to Carlos's attempts to become a better and more spiritual man, as it threatens her lavish lifestyle, thus prompting Sister Mary to suggest Carlos annul his marriage to Gabrielle.[31] Gabrielle intervenes when Carlos attempts to accompany Sister Mary on a charity trip to Botswana.[32] To rid herself of Sister Mary permanently, Gabrielle tells a priest at the church that Sister Mary and Carlos had an affair. Consequently, Sister Mary is transferred to Alaska.[33]

Gabrielle agrees to have a child with Carlos, but her miscarriage leads to complications, forcing them to consider adoption.[34] They prepare to adopt the unborn baby of pole dancer Libby Collins (Nichole Hiltz).[4] However, Libby's boyfriend, Frank Helm (Eddie McClintock), and his teenaged brother and the baby's father, Dale (Sam Horrigan), try to intervene.[35][36] When the baby, Lily, is born, a judge grants Carlos and Gabrielle temporary custody;[37] however, Libby ultimately decides to take Lily back and raise her with Frank.[36] Meanwhile, Gabrielle learns that her maid, Xiao-Mei (Gwendoline Yeo), is in danger of being deported to China. Xiao-Mei agrees to be Gabrielle and Carlos's surrogate in order to stay in the country.[38] As the pregnancy progresses, Gabrielle suspects that Carlos and Xiao-Mei are having an affair. When she catches them having sex, she kicks Carlos out of the house and informs Xiao-Mei that she is not allowed to leave until the baby is born.[39]

[edit] Season Three

The third season opens sixth months later, near the end of Xiao-Mei's pregnancy and in the midst of Gabrielle and Carlos's divorce proceedings.[40] When Xiao-Mei gives birth, doctors discover that they had accidentally switched the Solis' embryo with another couple's and the Solis' embryo was not successfully inseminated. Xiao-Mei moves out and Gabrielle and Carlos are left without a child.[41] Nevertheless, their divorce proceedings become complicated and vindictive.[42][43][44][45] Following her divorce, Gabrielle teams up with her personal shopper, Vern (Alec Mapa), coach a group of young misfit girls for the Snowflake Beauty Pageant.[46] She briefly dates Bill Pearce (Mark Deklin), the widowed father of a girl in the pageant, before realizing that she is not yet ready to date again.[47][48] Soon after, Zach Young (Cody Kasch), the recently wealthy son of Gabrielle's deceased friend, Mary Alice Young (Brenda Strong), begins pursuing Gabrielle.[49] Though Gabrielle refuses to date him, she agrees to befriend the irresponsible and disturbed Zach.[50] When Zach proposes to Gabrielle at a party, she rejects him and terminates their marriage.[51]

Later, Gabrielle meets Victor Lang (John Slattery), a candidate for the mayor of Fairview. They date casually, but Gabrielle insists that she is not interested.[52] Nevertheless, they mutual feelings of love.[53][54] When Gabrielle learns that Carlos has started dating her neighbor, the promiscuous Edie Britt (Nicollette Sheridan), she accepts Victor's marriage proposal.[55] As the wedding draws near, Gabrielle begins to have second thoughts about marrying Victor, especially after he wins the election and neglects her for his political career.[56] Nevertheless, she marries Victor. However, after the wedding, Gabrielle overhears Victor admitting to only having married her for his political gain, thus prompting her to reignite her relationship with Carlos.[57]

[edit] Season Four

The season premiere, "Now You Know", opens with Gabrielle and Carlos's plan to run away together on her wedding night; however, after Edie stages a suicide attempt, Carlos calls off the plan. One month later, Gabrielle and Carlos reignite their affair despite their commitments to Victor and Edie, respectively.[58] Edie soon becomes suspicious that Carlos is having an affair with Gabrielle.[59] She hires a private investigator, who photographs the couple sharing a final kiss after having just decided to end their affair.[60] Edie shows the photographs to Victor.[61] Victor takes Gabrielle on his boat, where she learns that he has found about the affair. Fearing that he might try to kill her, she knocks him overboard and leaves him at sea.[62] Victor survives the ordeal and vows to get revenge on Gabrielle and Carlos.[63] He attempts to kill Carlos but dies in a tornado,[64] the same storm that blinds Carlos and destroys the only documents giving him access to an offshore bank account.[65] The couple remarries soon after.[66]

While Gabrielle learns to cope with Carlos's blindness,[67][68] the Solises rent out a room in their house to Ellie Leonard (Justine Bateman) to improve their financial circumstances.[69] Gabrielle later discovers that Ellie is a drug dealer and alerts the authorities; however, after she and Ellie bond, Gabrielle helps her escape before the police arrest her.[70][71] Gabrielle later discovers several thousand dollars in Ellie's abandoned belongings. Ellie comes back to retrieve it, but Gabrielle tries to keep it from her. When police arrive to the Solis home, Ellie escapes and hides in a crowded block party, where she is shot and killed.[72]

[edit] Season Five

Both her daughters, Juanita and Celia, are overweight. Gaby is concerned but Carlos seems to be less worried. Through his work at the Country Club, he meets Mrs. Virginia Hildebrand, a wealthy client. She is lonely, due to her estrangement from her own family, and takes Carlos, Gaby and their daughters under her wing. Unfortunately Gaby tells her to leave them alone, after Virginia tries to insist on sending the girls to a private school and Gaby doesn't want them to go. The girls get fatter.

Early in the season, while fighting, Carlos is injured during the fire in the White Horse Bar, falling and hitting his head on the floor, and a CAT scan reveals that he can have an operation that will return his sight. Gabrielle is worried by this, fearing Carlos will no longer find her attractive, so she begins a slow transition towards her former appearance. It seems to be that Gabrielle was pregnant with Juanita right before the five-year jump because she is 4½ years old. When Carlos' vision is restored, Gabrielle’s efforts throughout the past five years are not unnoticed. She had sold nearly all her designer wardrobe in order to keep her family afloat. Carlos ultimately quits his job as a masseur and takes a high-paying business job so that he can support his family as Gabrielle did. With a large income and more relaxed lifestyle, Gabrielle succeeds her goal of regaining her former beauty but realizes motherhood and years of looking after Carlos has changed her for the better.

Gabrielle also covers for Carlos's boss, Bradley, when she discovers he is having an affair. She does it so Carlos will receive a higher wage and more time off. Eventually Gabrielle comes to her senses and tells his wife, Maria. Later, Carlos and Gabrielle are horrified to learn that Maria killed Bradley when he told her that he was leaving her for his hair dresser. Gabrielle later gets jealous when Carlos hires his ex-girlfriend, Lucy, as his right-hand lady which he took over from Bradley. Gabrielle gets Lynette a job with them so she can spy on Carlos and Lucy but is soon fed up with Carlos constantly being at work, due to Lucy insisting everyone works more hours. Gabrielle is happy when Carlos decides to let Lucy go due to the way she treats people.

Gabrielle is highly affected by the death of Edie Britt and remembers the friendly competitions for men they once had. She recalls Edie insisting that she wouldn't survive past fifty and is saddened to realize that she was right.

At the conclusion of the season, Gaby agrees to take in Carlos's teenage niece, Ana, who was being raised by Aunt Connie. Ana immediately tests Gaby's patience when she is asked to do some chores, she gets the Scavo boys to clean the house because "they asked to hang out with her".

[edit] Season Six

Ana continues to test Gaby's patience by wearing inappropriate clothes, stealing money and sneaking out of the house at night, which causes Gaby to refuse to become Ana's legal guardian. However, when Ana reveals her intentions of rushing through life, Gaby sees herself in her and signs the paperwork making her Ana's legal guardian. Ana thinks Gaby is too mean, and Gaby explains that she wishes someone had been mean to her at that age.

When John Rowland returns, this causes problems with Gabrielle and Carlos. He thinks that she still wants to look nice for her ex-lover. When Gaby shows up at John's restaurant, (where Carlos is having his business dinner) she doesn't put any effort into her look. She tells Carlos that she has stood by him for 11 years. She stayed with him when he was poor, blind and when he "knocked her up twice." When Ana begins to fall for John, Gaby intervenes and tells John to stay away. He then tells her he was only flirting with Ana to see if she still had feelings for him. He then asks her to run off with him and kisses Gaby just as Ana walks in. She confesses her past affair with John to Ana, and the two finally mend fences as Gaby declares her love for Carlos. Gaby then answers John by sending a photo strip of them together, torn right down the middle.

When Gabrielle finds out Lynette is pregnant, she is angered her friend kept this secret rather than risk her job. She does try to make peace but when Lynette sues Carlos, she angrily rejects their friendship. In "Boom Crunch", while Gabrielle and Lynette are fighting during a Christmas block party, a plane crash-lands on Wisteria Lane. Lynette pushes Celia out of the path of the plane.

In "You Gotta Get a Gimmick" Gabrielle told Carlos she didn't want to be reminded of her Mexican heritage - because of how poor she was, not wanting her girls to know she lived like that. Carlos told her they should know where their mother came from and the sacrifice her father made, to which Gabrielle agrees.

Gaby got involved in the Bolen's secret when she overhears Angie and Nick discussing their cover. Later, in "Chromolume No. 7, when Angie and Gaby traveled to New York, Gaby was treated badly by her old co-workers, super-models Heidi Klum and Paulina Porizkova, she realizes that she married Carlos because her career was on the verge of failure. While returning to Fairview, Angie reveals to Gaby that Patrick Logan, the "very bad guy" she's been running away from, is actually Danny's father.

In "We All Deserve to Die", Gaby decides to donate eggs to Bob and Lee so they can have a child but after changes her mind, leading them to break up. Gaby saves the Bolen family and is the one to say goodbye to them when they are leaving for Atlanta (and Danny New York). Bree finally tells Gaby about the hit and run accident that happened 10 years before.

[edit] Season Seven

Gabrielle is told the truth of Andrew killing Carlos's mother but decides to keep it quiet, fearing Carlos's reaction and not wanting to hurt him.

She is unaware of Carlos learning that Juanita was switched at birth with their daughter and that Carlos is keeping that secret from her. When Juanita is hospitalized after being accidentally run over by Bree's car, Gabrielle is stunned when the nurse tells her that there's no way she and Carlos can be the parents with their blood types. Gabrielle worries she slept with a man eight years earlier on a ski trip and he might be the father. Carlos finds out how she ripped up a hospital form and confronts her. When Gabrielle claims to not know she cheated, Carlos tells her the truth, devastating her. She agrees to sign a deal with Carlos not to reveal the truth in exchange for a settlement from the hospital.

However, Gabrielle soon realizes she wants to meet her true daughter and convinces a lawyer to find the other family. Carlos is angered when he finds out, telling her that the family could take Juanita away and if that happens, he'll never forgive Gabrielle. When they meet the family they automatically know that Grace is Gaby's daughter as she is throwing a fit over a jumper. Gabrielle grows closer to Grace, causing jealousy in Juanita, who doesn't know the truth. When Grace's legal parents are discovered to be illegal immigrants, her legal father Hector is arrested and her legal mother Carmen is forced to go on the run. Since Grace was born in the United States, she is a citizen and Gabrielle and Carlos agree to take her in to raise her.

To make sure they can get Grace to live with them, Gabrielle turns legal Grace's mother into U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) but then has second thoughts when ICE shows up, posing as Carmen and letting Carmen get away. But when Gabrielle and Carlos go to pick up Grace, Carmen insists on taking Grace.

Distraught over losing Grace, Gabrielle confides in Lynette, the only person she knows who has lost a child. Lynette tells Gabrielle that she wrote a letter to the child she lost, and that this might help Gabrielle, who wouldn't have to actually send it. Gabrielle writes the letter; Juanita finds it and runs away, hiding in the back of Bob and Lee's car, where Gabrielle sees her just in time for her to be rescued during the riot. A therapist suggests that Carlos and Gabrielle cut off all ties and reminders of Grace in order to let the tension with Juanita heal. Gabrielle is reluctant, keeping photos of Grace but Carlos demands she do this for Juanita.

Gabrielle seems to agree, but goes to a boutique and buys a doll that resembles Grace and keeps it hidden from her family. After Juanita and Celia find it and play with it, ultimately breaking it's arm, Gabrielle goes back to the boutique and has the owner repair "Princess Valerie". The owner promises to repair it, and Gabrielle, feeling she is too attached to the doll, asks the owner if she thinks Gabrielle is strange. The owner disagrees, and shows Gabrielle her own doll, Mrs. Humphreys. The owner tells Gabrielle that she fell in love with the doll and bought it, ultimately learning the doll's "story". The owner says that Mrs. Humphreys is a music teacher whose sister died around the same time the owner's did (hinting that the owner bought the doll as a replacement for her passed on sister, much as Gabrielle did). Gabrielle sees the owner's pain, and the owner asks Gabrielle about Princess Valerie's story. Although reluctant, Gabrielle emotionally tells her that the doll was a princess who was accidentally given to the wrong family, but she found her way back eventually, and her mother, the Queen, had her hid so that no one could take her away again. When she gets home, Gabrielle puts Princess Valerie in a box behind her closet. Carlos finds out about Gabrielle's obsession with the doll so they go out to get rid of it and get carjacked by an unknown gunman. Gabrielle tries to take Princess Valerie out of the car but she had to let her go because the gunman threatened to kill her.

Carlos insists she go to therapy but she ignores it, going to spa treatments instead. Eventually, Carlos goes with her as she confesses to the therapist how she was molested as a child. At the therapist's suggestion, Gabrielle and Carlos go to her hometown where Gaby is surprised to learn she is a celebrity. She enjoys being admired by the townspeople until she meets the nun she had once confided in about her abuse as a child. The nun had then refused to believe Gabrielle's story and remains stubborn as Gabrielle lets out the shame she has long since been forced to feel by the cold nun's words; passing it back onto this woman who when could have prevented a childhood of torment did nothing, gives Gaby the sense of closure she has been seeking. Finally Gabrielle tells Carlos she is ready to go home and leave the past behind.

Making amends for his past while in AA, Andrew decides to tell Carlos about running over his mother. While Carlos does forgive Andrew, he is furious with Gabrielle over keeping the secret from him. He tells Bree that he won't forgive her for hiding the truth and bans Gabrielle from seeing Bree again. Gabrielle takes her girls and temporarily moves in with Bree. She shortly returns to Carlos.

Gabrielle shows a horror movie to Juanita, which gives her nightmares. She claims that a man is standing on the family's front lawn every night. Gabrielle is doubtful of this until she too notices the mysterious stranger. She sees him while shopping one day and asks a security officer to see a security camera. She realizes that her stalker is the stepfather who raped her as a child. This horrifies Gabrielle, especially because she thought that he was dead.

Gabrielle learns her stepfather has been following her everywhere she goes. She drives to a deserted area when she knows he is following her, and walks into a clearing, armed with a gun that she acquired for her protection. She confronts him about raping her as a young girl. He admits to the terrible deed.

During Susan's coming home dinner, Gabrielle runs home to begin preparations for dessert course. Once she enters her house, her stepfather confronts her again, pretending to have her gun. He begins to attack her attempts to rape her. However, Carlos comes home and intervenes, accidentally killing him with a blow to the head from a candlestick. Bree, Susan, and Lynette come into the house and discover the body. With help from Bree, they are able to clean up before the rest of the guests arrive. The group agrees to keep the situation secret.

[edit] Season Eight

Gabby and Carlos deal with keeping the murder of her stepfather quiet, Carlos unable to be intimate due to his guilt. Gabrielle challenges the antagonistic PTA head at Juanita's school after a parking dispute only to accidentally hit the woman with her car. The woman gets revenge by making Gabrielle her replacement, warning her that being PTA head will drive Gabby crazy. The first meeting does not go well as Gabrielle is late due to a spa appointment and the other members berate her over putting her high-living lifestyle over her responsibilities. Assuming they're jealous, Gabrielle gives them massages and makeovers but they still refuse to help. They snap that Gabrielle has no idea how people like them live and her life is so perfect. When a drunken Carlos comes in, however, the PTA members that Gabrielle faces many struggles as well and really isn't that different from them after all. They take over the luncheon project and allow Gabrielle to help her husband. When Carlos gets drunk before work, Gabrielle attempts to cover for him but his boss figures it out. Rather than be upset, the man tells Carlos he understands, being a recovering alcoholic himself, and urges Carlos to get help. Carlos checks himself into a rehab center but vanishes the same night detective Chuck Vance is killed, making Gabby worry Carlos might have done it while drunk.
