Gabrielle is mourning a husband she may have killed. Bo watches her and Max like a hawk during the service. "She's always panicked about [being sent to jail], but more than that is that she's one step closer to being ripped away from Max again, and she can't have that," Fiona says. "On a much more serious note, this is causing a tremendous rift between her and her son." 

As for Alex, "She doesn't think there's anybody who's an ex-wife who's anywhere near as important as she is," declares Tonja Walker Davidson. This is, after all, the woman who dressed up as Queen of the Nile for her wedding to Asa. "She takes over the funeral. She understands that Bo needs to speak. No one else needs to speak, and he shouldn't speak until she speaks."
Alex's eulogy leaves a lot to be desired in the tact department. Renee, one of the more important women to Asa, is the voice of reason. "I am the bridge between Alex and Bo, the transition from the comedy - Alex - to the really somber - Bo," Patricia Elliot explains. "I address my eulogy in part, to the other wives. 'You all are making fun here, but I was Asa's sixth and tenth wife, and I was the first woman to truly love him.' She talks about him in terms of who he was - a big cowboy." 

Blair is there quite by accident. "I am there to light a candle for my baby, so I don't have any confrontations with any of these women," Kassie De Paiva explains. "Starr and I sit in the back row. Starr wants to stay because she's never been to a funeral before. She wants to know if she gets to see the body."
