Why wouldn't we believe? Stuff like this happens all the time. So what if it is sprung upon us out of nowhere? Where the heck did Renee come from, why was she never mentioned as Lynette's BFF before season 7? Why is it that good ol' neighbour Katherine had never been mentioned before season 4? Or how come we were only clued in on the fact that Mike still had a connection to his biological son Zach in 7.14?

The writers will put in anything that's convenient, and this bit with Felicia and Karen was, in my opinion, one of the easiest to swallow, possibly because it doesn't really retcon anything and it was enjoyable to see two of the show's best supporting players interact.

What I'm still having a hard time digesting is the fact that Felicia had a daughter. I know they only came up with her for season 7, so I won't even go with the fact that she should had been mentioned during seasons 1-2, but we oughta be given some explanation to this, and we won't, I'm sure of it. I always assumed Felicia wanted to be a mother to Zach because she never had any children of her own. Because she was all alone. Beth changed the game. And it would be nice if it had been mentioned this season that Felicia hated Martha. But no, yet again the writers forget about continuity.
