**  The Pawn Shop Blues
LeeAnn and Jason slept in a park with Duke.  Jason was ripped
off at the bus station the day before.  They are hungry.  LeeAnn
keeps asking Jason what they are going to do.  He scrounges up
some change and goes to get something to eat.  Lee Ann tells him
they need diapers.  Jason looks at her like she is crazy.  He
returns with some donuts and coffee.  They blame themselves for
being so stupid and then Jason tells her he needs her necklace
to pawn so they can get enough money to get out of town.

Reluctantly, LeeAnn lets him take the necklace and he leaves.
There is a lady cop who has been listening and watching since Jason
first went for coffee.  When she approaches LeeAnn, LA gets nervous
and starts to leave the park but trips and the baby starts crying.
The officer approaches to see if she is okay.  The cop then says
"I know that cry, that baby's hungry."  [ed., THIS WAS SOOOOO STUPID!
I was really bugged by this whole scene.  Number one, Lee Ann just
tripped and jarred the baby pretty good.  The surprise is most
likely why the baby was crying...... (more complaints later)]

Lee Ann manages to get rid of her for a little while.  When Jason
comes back from the pawn shop he has two hats.  He says their
pictures are on everything and there are hotlines set up for people
to turn them in.  They leave the park.


Hot on their trail is the police woman from earlier and another
officer.  She tells him that they were the ones and are on the
heals of our hapless trio.

[Okay, Complaints.  They hadn't fed or changed the baby ALL night!!!!
How can she possibly think putting the baby through all of that
is the right thing to do?? I hate this storyline. Nuff said.]

**  The Buchanan Blues
Clint and Kevin are in the kitchen getting ready for Clint to leave
Arizona when Vickie arrives in her robe to see if she can get him to
stay.  They go back and forth about her needing him there with her
and standing by Andrew etc...... Kevin is in and out throughout
the convo.  Eventually, Clint leaves, and Vickie goes upstairs to
get dressed.


Later that morning, Vickie runs into Sloan (at the country club??)
and he tells her he has decided to get "the Treatment" from larry.
When she tells him that Andrew must be thrilled, she becomes aware
that he hasn't told Andrew.  He does tell her that he is doing it
for her.  He has strong feelings for her and wants her to admit
she does too.  She skirts the issue and turns it back around to
him and Andrew and the way he is dealing with his feelings for
William.  She wants him to go to the Quilt showing today, to support
both of his sons.  (Kevin is now lurking behind a corner listening,
his beedy little eyes ablaze).  While Sloan and Vickie are Kevin
pops out and asks Vickie how she could do this.  Blames Sloan for being
the reason that Vickie wouldnt leave with Clint.  He is very rude
to both Sloan and Vickie.  He acted like he had caught them in bed
and wouldn't listen to his mother even after Sloan left.

I really dislike that Kevin brat.  (I will admit, the old actor
could never have pulled this off, but the new one is good at being
a bad guy......Yeah, what she said;))

Something sickening this way comes.  Blair is at the Country
Club with Asa and they invite some passer by that they know to
come celebrate.  Blair is going to own and operate her own company
and she will be CEO and sole designer.They have bloody marys to
celebrate.  (Gee that sounds good;)  Is it Beer-o'clock yet?)
This scene had little to do with her business, it really had to
do with Blair's new attitude towards Asa.  She has decided to go
for the BIG MONEY.  She kept sucking up to Asa, telling this
guy what a kind wonderful man Asa is and how she and Asa were
made for each other.  Asa sees what she really is and helps
her attain all that she can be...... gack, yuck, sick stuff.
(Meanwhile, you know he is going to make her pay with about
oh, say 7-8 pounds of flesh..... of the baby variety that is)

Today was very intense for Andrew Carpenter  (and I fear for
us loyal viewers as well).   Luna, sporting a mad hangover
from her three sips of champagne the night before, welcomes
Andrew to her studio.  The love-line is giving him a timeslot
for answering phone calls and talking about the quilt.Andrew
warns Luna that the show may get some very negative reactions
and tells her there would be no hard feelings if she wants too
back out.  She tells him that he is on a mission of love and
she ain't backin out no way, suger plum.

His first call if from Mrs. Hanson, a member of his ex-parish.
She let's him no in no uncertain terms that she doesn't want
him or the quilt in the town. She goes on to tell him that
aids is a gay disease that God sent down to rid the world of
the gay population because they are sinful.  She tells him
that if he is so right, why has the churched locked him out
of his own parish.  [ed., These phone calls really pissed me
off.  The church going fare are really protrayed as small
minded, mean spirited, unchristian people.  So much for peace
love and understanding.]


The next caller is some unknown guy.  He wants to know if
Andrew is the Homo. He wants him to get his gay quilt out of
town.  [ed. ignorant fool, I wanted Andrew to say that quilts
can't be gay.......] Andrew tries to talk to this guy, but
the guy is totally ignorant and rude.  He tells Andrew that
he could get hurt if he doesn't back off and forget the
quilt thing.  He could die.


After the phone call, Luna and Andrew are visibly shaken (as well
as myself) and they later go to the rectory so Luna can see Williams
quilt square.  She tries to give Andrew some words of encouragement
to keep up the fight.

After she leaves, it is obvious someone is looking through the windows
from the outside.

When Andrew steps outside he is approached by this big gorilla of
a guy.  The guys asks him "Are you the Homo?" (Obviously the caller)
Andrew tells him no he is the priest, Andrew Carpenter.  The guy
belts Andrew in the stomach.  Andrew doubles over, and tells him
that he will not fight him and may God forgive him for what he
is doing.  Then they jerk hits him in the face.  [This scene was
very well done, very violent, and very upsetting. ] The guy
starts slamming away at Andrew and the scene closes with him
just wailing on the poor padre.
