The most prolific of these difficulties including Gabrielle's mother in law, Juanita, who is introduced in episode 1.05 ("Come In, Stranger"). However, Juanita was hit by a car driven by Andrew Van De Kamp after discovering the affair in episode 1.07 ("Anything You Can Do"). The hit and run placed Juanita into a coma. John became overwhelmed with guilt and went to confession before the following episode ("Guilty"). However, he became entranced once again by Gabrielle and may have conceived her unborn child. He found out about this in episode 1.21 ("Sunday in the Park with George") and started "freaking out". He demanded to see Mr. Solis but Gabrielle refused.
Instead, John arrived at Carlos's gay hate trial in episode 1.23 ("One Wonderful Day") and told him "he got the wrong guys". "Didn't you think it was strange that you had the only lawn on Wisteria Lane that needed to be mowed three times a week?", he said. Carlos went mad and attempted to attack John but it looked like he was attacking Justin - the gay person he beat up previously. After what happened at the court Gabrielle breaks up with him.
