Here it is, Thursday's update (it takes so little to make Viv a happy
camper).

Mason and Julia are in the mansion discussing whether or not she is pregnant
(this is the day after the party and excessive lovemaking).  She's spoken
with Dr. Zeiman but they won't be able to tell for two weeks if it worked.
J tells M that when she told Dr. Z how many times they made love he laughed 
because you have to wait 48 hours between boinks to build up the sperm.  
Mason is astonished - he wore himself out for nothing?  No, says Julia - for
enjoyment!  After the first time they could have stopped.  Mason goes to 
work.

Jodie's cleaning the cabin and comes across the picture of the family.  She
continues on and picks up the newspaper with a headline about Sawyer.  A
bad headache hits and her vision goes.

Reese is at the cop shop.  He argues with McCabe about the same old stuff.
M tells R that the Walker family has the most suspects.  Warren comes and
asks to speak to Reese.  They go into an empty office.  Warren tells Reese
BJ killed Frank.  Reese can't believe it.  Warren tells him about the video-
tape he saw.  Reese thinks he's reading too much into it.  Warren tells him 
she's blocking it.  Cruz confessed to cover for her, it makes sense now.
Warren tells Reese it can't come out until she's ready to deal with it.  
R tells W that McCabe suspects BJ too.  Warren wants to move on it before 
McCabe finds out. Reese still isn't convinced.  

Sawyer is asleep - covers up to his chin.  Aurora comes in and kisses him 
awake.  She's on a break from her job (cleaning rooms in their building).
She's got to get back to work.  She leaves.  S hops out of bed.  He's all
dressed and was only faking being asleep.  He goes out and calls Mr.
Watkins about the fight.  They agree to meet and talk about it.

The countess is getting ready to eat breakfast at Ballymore.  Micah joins
her.  He apologizes for not taking her to the party last night.  She agrees
it would have been wrong for him to take her since he was the guest of honor.
(can't tell if she's being sarcastic or not).  He tells her there was a 
medical emergency anyway.  The phone rings and its Jodie.  She's in a panic
because she can't see.  She neeeds Micah to come over right away.  Micah wants
to send an ambulance but Jodie says then Reese will find out for sure.  Micah
agrees to go see her.  The countess asks if it was Jodie and if she was also
last night's medical emergency.  He tells her she was.  The countess tells re-
minds him he has a staff to handle things like this now and besides house 
calls have been out of fashion for years.  Micah says "Perhaps you should 
remember that the next time you arrive at someone's house uninvited."

Watkins shows up at Sawyer's apartment.  He makes him take off his shirt.
He can't really use him since he only weights 157 and light middleweights
are a dime a dozen.  He goes to leave and Sawyer tells himm he's just going to
have to show him how good he really is.  He knocks the guy out (oh yeah, how
to get a job in one easy lesson).

Minx, Julia and Pat (never seen this lady before) are at the Capwell mansion
holding a meeting to decide what to do about the judge's replacement.  They
are all members of the women's Democratic club (Julia's a Democrat, cool.
Wanna bet Mason's a Republican).  They go through a list of possible can-
didates they can promote for a replacement.  None are acceptable.  There is
only one woman but she is Republican.  Suddenly Minx has a brainstorm.  She
knows someone who is "liberal, progressive, fair, a democrat, and she's young"
J:  That's terrific, who is she?
M:  You!

Mason is in his office working when a man enters and introduces himself as a
Governor's aide.  The Governor wants Mason to be the judge's replacement.
Mason is amused.  Mason wants to think about it.  Unless someone challenges
him, he's in it for the long haul.  M tell the aide he has to think about it.
He has a life, a company to worry about and he's trying to raise a family.
The aide says this is a golden opportunity he should really take advantage
of.

Minx and Pat try to talk Julia into it.  She tells them about trying to have a
baby.  They tell her she's a 90's woman, she can have it all.  She's still not
sure.

Jodie's going through a bunch of medicine bottles trying to find aspriin
by the smell.  She gives up and tries to relax like Micah told her to.  
She feels her way to the table and sits down and finds the family portrait.
She picks it up and hugs it.  There is a knock at the door, it's Micah.  She
makes her way over there and lets him in.  He sees the pills but she assures
him she didn't take any.  He convinces her to let him take her to the hospi-
tal.  She reluctantly agrees to go.  He grabs her purse and jacket and they
head out.

Warren and Reese argue.  Reese still doesn't want to believe BJ killed Frank.
Warren tells him about Cruz burning the dress and McCabe finding the button.
Cruz was trying to protect BJ, it makes sense.  R tells W he's wrong.  He and
McCabe are both wrong.  W doesn't want to take that chance because if McCabe
finds out he could hurt BJ forever.  McCabe comes in.  W grabs him and asks
"who killed Frank Goodman, who killed him ..."  R gets disgusted and walks 
out.  Warren follows him but Reese tells him he's not ready for this.  W 
leaves.  R stops M and asks him who he thinks killed Frank "you think it's my
daughter, don't you"?

Watkins wakes up and is amazed at Sawyer's ability (yeah, right!)  and agrees 
to give him a chance on Friday.  Aurora comes in as Watkins is going out and 
suspects who Watkins is.  They fight about his fighting and she gets mad and 
walks out.  He gets his shirt on and goes looking for her.

Micah and Jodie are at the hospital.  The pill M gave her helped but things 
are still blurry.  He speaks to the nurse about neurological tests and Jodie 
sneaks up to overhear.  M explains she needs the tests so they can eliminate 
things but its probably just stress.  He gives J a dime to call R and tells 
her if she doesn't, he will.

McCabe refuses to discuss the case with Reese.  They end up discussing it.  No
one was with BJ at the motel the entire time.  She could have done it.  Cruz 
had reason to take the blame for her and insinuates that Cruz is BJ's father.  
M says he has to be impartial, BJ is a prime suspect.  His job is tough at 
times and this is one of them.  She had a hell of a motive but he hopes to God 
it's not true.  R gets a call.  It's Jodie and it's an emergency.

Mason asks the aide if his dad had anything to do with this?  The aide says he
has no idea, he has to ask the governor, he leaves.  Mason says "Judge Mason
Capwell".  He likes it.

Julia walks Pat to the door and when she goes back Minx reads her horoscope.  
"Forget about redecorating that room, duty calls.  Someone else's misfortune is your serendipity.  A new career opportunity.  Sagittarius plays a significant 
role".  Minx is a Sagittarius.  J says she has to talk to Mason first.  The 
screen splits with M on the left and J on the right.  M says "I have to talk to Julia first".  They both look in each other's direction.

Sawyer finds Aurora.  They're both sorry.  They hug.  They are at Faneuil Hall
in Boston (was just there this past week, cool).  They go home.  (These people 
are hopelessly boring).

Jodie speaks to Reese.  R tells her McCabe read the letters and knows some-
thing.  He tells her M found the letters at Kelly's.  J wants to know what
McCabe told him.  R says it's nothing, he can handle it.  He wants to know 
what Jodie's emergency is.  She says it's nothing and hangs up.

Julia tells Minx she thinks Minx put on an act for Pat and really had Julia in
mind all along.  Minx laughs and leaves, running into Warren outside the front
door (Gina told him Minx was over there).  Warren asks if she still has that 
place in San Francicscio on Nob Hill and asks if he can use it.  He can use 
it, the key is in her jewelry box on a chain with a little cable car.  W asks 
her to keep this a secret and she agrees.  He thanks her, gives her a kiss and 
leaves.

Mason calls Julia on the phone from his office.  He tells her he has some 
extraordinary news.  She says "So do I".  He slams down the phone, goes out 
his office door and enters the front door of the mansion (nice effect).  He 
asks "Are you pregnant?" (God this guy's obsessed) and hugs her.  She invites 
him to lunch to share some news.  He agrees because he has news too.

The nurst arrives to take Jodie for her tests.  Jodie tells the nurse she 
can't do it today and leaves.  Micah asks the nurse where J is and the nurse
tells him she just skipped out.

Reese asks McCabe if he'll get off BJ's back if he can prove that BJ is not 
Cruz's daughter.  McCabe says maybe.  Reese suggests a DNA test right now to 
prove the truth.

TOMORROW ON SB
**************
Reese:  Can you believe Connor McCabe?  Now he wants to pin Frank's murder on 
        BJ.  Well I'm stopping the speculation once and for all.  Cruz is not 
        BJ's father, I am.  We'll just have to put it to the test, tomorrow.
