  Friday Update August 4

  Quote of the Week:
  Dr. Zeman (speaking to Julia and Mason):  "You two should have your
  own show."
  Mason:  "Tell that to the affiliates."

  Mason and Julia are informed by Dr. Zeman he will need another test
  sample from Mason.

  Aurora and Sawyer wake up in a bar confronted by an Amish couple.

  Jodie and Reese prepare for BJ's first therapy session.

  Cruz is worrying over BJ's dress.  Agnonizing over the fact that
  traces of gun powder were found on it.  Tortured because he must
  make a descision to expose BJ's guilt  or destroy the evidence.

  BJ and Warren awake at Skyar's both refreshed and still happy over
  their *dreams* from the previous night.

  BJ and Warren are brought tea and BJ discusses her dream with Warren.
  She compares it to being able to fly and she is obviously happy.
  Warren confesses he had a similar dream and that doors will open for
  her today.  Skylar enters and they prepare for the therapy session.

  Sawyer explains to the Amish couple that he and laura are in serious
  trouble and that they are on the run.  The couple questions them
  thinking Aurora maybe pregnant, which she denies.  The Amish couple
  think perhaps they have been shunned but Sawyer says no, they are
  not Amish, they're from California.  Well, that explains the clothes
  (they are still dressed in their colonial garb from Philadelphia).
  The Amish decide to help them and bring them food and clothes. 
  They are also in love and their familiies are against their relationship
  also.

  Cruz has left for the therapy session when McCabe shows up at Kelly's
  (looking very good in dark glasses and casual clothes).  He's there
  to return her scarf.  He claims the scent of her perfume kept him
  tossing and turnng all night.  They verbally spar back and forth 
  and she invites him in.

  Skylar begins the session with BJ and Cruz, Reese, Warren and Jodie.
  He explains that they have all been touched by BJ's abuse to some
  emotional extent or another.  He councils them to help each other,
  to heal each other with the love in their hearts and to depend on
  each other.

  Julia and Mason anxiously await the Dr. to tell them the result of
  Mason's test.  He wants to know if he captured the flag, took the beach,
  the Dr. looks confused, Julia pipes in with you know, remember the
  Alamo, the Dr. is still confused so Julia explains that they want to
  know if his sperm is potent,  Oh, responds the Dr., you two should have
  your own show.  Tell that to the affiliates, mumbles Mason (see above
  for award for best quote of the week).  The Dr. goes on to explain
  the *humster* test (hum for human, ster for hamster) and to use the
  vernancular that they both seem so fond of  Mason has "sleepy sperm".

  BJ speaks of visiting the children inside of her.  One child just sits
  staring being sad, sometimes she gets angry and opens her mouth to scream
  but nothing comes out.  Reese relates how he met Frank at work and brought
  him into their lives.  He can never forgive himself for that.  BJ speaks
  of another child who lives alone in a tiny room, freightened by everything
  she sees.  Warren relates how he tried to help without asking what the
  problem really was.  Another child inside of BJ that only she can see
  just lies there, she can't be woken, she's like a rag doll, like Rachel
  Ann, she's dead and BJ mourns for her more than all the others.  Jodie
  tells of wondering if there were something she could have done to prevent
  the abuse.  Skylar asks her if there was.  No, she cries, she's gone over
  everything that happened and she can see what happened but she can't see
  when the abuse started.  Cruz jumps in and defends Jodie saying that
  Frank was not a stranger he was a friend and he loved them and people who
  love you are not suppose to hurt you.  BJ said she was too young to
  understand but was Jodie's excuse.  Skylar says there are no excuses.
  But the reality is the moment and the love that surrounds her and she  must
  Cruz knows that Warren is in love with BJ.  Warren defends himself saying
  he promised BJ to stand by her and he intends to keep that promise.  Cruz 
  seems pleased that BJ has Warren on her side.  He then questions Warren
  about the night of the shooting.

  The Amish couple have a ride for Sawyer and Aurora to Boston.  They are
  now dressed in Amish garb.

  Julia  brings Mason breakfast in bed.  A trayful of vegetables and fruit.
  She emphasizes the Dr.'s orders that he needs lots of vitamins while
  waving a zuccinni in front of him.  Please stop, he asks, it reminds him
  of his personal inadequacies. So some of your sperm are stragglers,
  neer-do-wells, the majority are quite perky look at Samantha says she.
  Frustrated Mason complains that this can't be happenng to him, Capwells
  are listed in Who's Who not Masters & Johnson.  Don't pout, your condition
  can be reversed.  Julia decides to sing to Mason and breaks into Rock
  Abye Baby, no babies protests Masons, Row, Row, Row your boat gently
  up the stream sings Julia.  This one annoys Mason too. She then tries
  isty, bitsy ... went up the stream. J-U-L-I-A, threatens Mason.  How
  about Up the Lazy River, Nobody Knows The Trouble I've Seen, Amazing
  Grace...Julia I'm going to kill you.  They break into a pillow fight
  while Julia continues with a chorus of Amzaing Grace.

  BJ wanted just another moment with Frank to hear him say it wasn't her
  fault.  She thinks of everyhting she lost, pride, dignity, right to say
  no, her childhood, innocence, her family.  Jodie wishes she could give
  all those things back to her.  BJ tells her she always had time for 
  Sawyer but she doesn't resent that she just always felt different.  Sort
  of on the outside.  Warren said that was frank's doing but BJ said she
  felt like that long before Frank.  BJ says she feels she doesn't belong
  anywhere.  Reese grabs her and hold her telling she belongs right there.
  Reese's love is her safe place she says.  Cruz is looking nervous when
  she turns to him and hugs him and tells him so is this.  She moves to
  Warren and hugs him and then takes Jodie's hand.  She tells Jodie she
  can't come home yet and Jodie says she'll wait a lifetime.  From small
  beginnings come great things, says Skylar and invites them all to take a
  walk in his garden.  Cruz talks to Master Gates about BJ and says that
  she'll be fine eventually.  Things will come out as she is capable of
  coping with them.Basically Cruz wants to know if she could be still
  blocking out what happened the night of the murder.  His suspicions
  are confirmed.

  Back at the cop shop, McCabe interrupts one of the cops takin the
  microscope away from Cruz's desk.  McCabe questions what Cruz wanted
  with a microscope but the officer doesn't know.  McCabe muses on the
  fact that Cruz has been keeping a lot of secrets lately.

  Cruz gets back to Kelly's and wants the dress.  Cruz tells Kelly that
  he can't play by the rules this time.  He takes the dress and burns
  it.  He has to protect her until she's ready to remember what happened.
  Wouldn't you do the same thing? questions Cruz.  I don't know responds
  Kelly.  Cruz then tells her that he intends to take the fall for BJ.

  Preview:
  Cruz "It's among the most difficult decisions of my life but I will not
        allow BJ to be blamed for Frank's murder.  And I know that Kelly
        will come to understand eventually.  I can only pray  her heart
        won't be broken in the meantime."
