>I liked yesterday's show because it was different. I liked Angela and Ted

Best line of the show goes to...Angela, as she tries to help the
injured Ted:

	"I'm not a doctor.  I never even dated one!"

Featured characters:  Jodie, Sawyer, Micah, his son Giovanni,
the nurse, Aurora, Angela, Ted, Lilly, Rafe, CC, Lisa, and Rich
(that's 13, count em).

Jodie/Sawyer are at the cabin.  She's made cookies and he's kinda
mopy.  He tells her that he and Aurora "did it" at a vulnerable
moment on the beach on the day he testified, and now he feels ~guilty.
She has a nice heart-to-heart with him, telling him love is a gift,
he's lucky to have found it, and to return that gift to Aurora
every day of his life.  Both are teary (Jodie calls them mush puppies)
as she tells him that as far as life's precious gifts go, "you're mine."

Micah sits at his son's bedside in the hospital, pondering to the nurse
whether he'd even tell this kid that he's his dad.  He feels nothing
towards the son, how sad.  She leaves the room and runs into Aurora
at the nurse's station, who has a picnic basket to surprise her dad
(and Sawyer will meet them).  The two set up the picnic as the son,
Giovanni, awakens and immediately recognizes his dad.  Giov wants
no part of Micah, being bitter about Micah leaving his mother for
the great Mariah (so Giov was born before Micah and Mariah met, I
guess).   [need a break here -- too many lines]

Micah leaves the room, is surprised by the picnic, and hugs Aurora,
which Giov sees from his room.  Giov unplugs his tubes and walks out
through the back curtain (?!!) into the hallway, where he collapses in
Jodie and Sawyer's arms as they arrive.  Back in bed, everyone there,
Aurora asks something and Giov introduces himself as her bastard brother.
Everyone clears out.  Later Aurora comes back to talk to him.  He's
nasty as first ("what are you staring at") but she just wants to know
him.  She's also miffed that Micah never told her.  Meanwhile, Micah
confides to Jodie that he must be a monster for having no feelings
toward Giov.  She tells him to give it time.

Angela and Ted are at the bottom of a pit with lots of rubble and
earthquaky noise and shakes -- they figure it's a mine shaft.  Ted
is woozy, his leg is pinned under a big beam and hurts like crazy.
She eventually frees it and can tell the leg is badly broken.  She's
verging on panicking (hence the doctor line above), but Ted tells her
to get a splint.  Attention guys, she boldy rips her green silk blouse
into ties for the splint (but sorry, she was wearing a camisole so
not much is revealed).  She gives Ted water from the backpack that
fell with them and is concerned.  Ted makes a crack or two about her
and CC.  She tells him she's scared, and he tells her to cozy up to
him and put her head on this head.  Ted's a good guy when he's stranded
with a woman, isn't he?

Lilly and Rafe at Ted's excavation office go through the usual.  She
tells him her affairs are of no concern to him, that Ted is a great
catch, etc.  She mentions that she needs a life while Rafe and Lisa
make BABIES and stutters over the word "babies," which Rafe picks up
on and asks about.  She denies her hesitation meant anything.  She
tells Rafe that before casting aspersions on Ted and her life, he
should take a look at his own situation, that Lisa is no saint.  She
goes to look for Ted at CC's.  CC is ready to phone the police because
he can't find Angela.  He's also snappy with Lilly, who realizes that
if both Ted and Angela are missing, it must mean they're together
again.  Lilly tries to stop CC from calling the police, in essence
covering for Ted once again.  But CC calls anyway.

Lisa and Rich are face to face at her and Rafe's apartment.  He tells
her he's a pressure cooker, that Lisa is his.  She looks scared, and
he (the actor) is great -- a villain like Frank, not like Ken.  He
smiles and tells her he's waited through this whole charade, that it's
time to give it up and tell Rafe.  Then he says he wants just a kiss,
just a kiss, and grabs her face.  As he's about to force a kiss, they
hear the door opening and run to opposite sides of the room.  Rafe, now
suspicious from Lilly's talk, tells them he didn't expect to see Rich.
Lisa mentions that Rich is just leaving, which he does looking not
too pleased.  [I thought he'd tell Rafe everything.]  Rafe tells Lisa
the tension in the room is thick, what's up.  She just does her usual
ignoring and starts to come on to Rafe.

>Vivian needs a Friday updater and nobody has responded to my Trivia
>Pursuit help for questions and answers.

>John

I can try this Friday, but I won't promise Thanksgiving weekend --
maybe most of us would see it then anyway.

As for Trivia, I would only be able to come up with questions from
the past 6 months -- not much to go on.

P.S.  To Nancy writing the novel who needs a name for the Irish
Setter:  how about Vivian?  Now Vivian, don't take that as an
insult, I mean it as a compliment to your contribution to this
newsgroup and because you're a dog lover and because you're McCabe's
biggest fan.
