  Gina and Lilly discuss Lionel and jeans.

  Replay of Slaughterhouse Three.

  BJ answers Kelly's question.

  
  Gina and Lilly are discussing the future of Gina Jeans and the future
  of Gina's marriage if she doesn't tell Lionel the truth about her *deal*
  with CC.  Who should walk in but TY with his new assistant, Rafe (surprise,
  surprise).  Ty introduces Rafe to Gina and Lilly unaware of their past
  together.  Lilly and Rafe talk. Gina and LIlly talk. Lilly and Rafe talk
  some more.  Finally everyone decides it's time to eat at, you guessed it,
  the Oasis!!  Rafe tries to beg off Ty insists and everyone takes off for
  Santa Barbara's most popular dining establishment.

  Kelly is still waiting for an answer from BJ about who abused her.  Kelly
  tells BJ that Cruz told her about the doll, about Rachel Ann and at that
  moment Warren enters the office and overhears the conversation.  He
  stays in the background while Kelly continues to press BJ to tell her
  if it was Frank who was responsible for what happened to her when she
  was a child.  BJ looks at her and cries that yes, it was Frank.  The look
  on Warren's face is heartbreaking when he realizes that the article was
  about BJ and what he put her through with trying to get her to reveal her
  sources.  He goes to BJ and she realizes that he heard everything.  Kelly
  tells BJ that she has to tell Reese and BJ is reluctant because she's 
  afraid that Reese will no longer love her and she just can't face him.
  Kelly asks BJ's permission to tell Reese, insisting that Cruz and Jodie's
  lives may depend on it.  BJ agrees and Kelly leaves to find Reese.  
  Warren and BJ face each other and Warren's tries to comfort BJ.  He
  explains that he thought he was the cause of her being uncomfortable and
  pulling away, that he thought she was uncomfortable with their
  relationship.  She lets him know that that was never the case.  She 
  starts to cry that everything that's happened is her fault.  The problems
  with Jodie and Reese, Cruz and Jodie being in danger.  If she had never
  said anything none of this would have happened.  Warren takes her in his
  arms and trys to console her telling her that none of this is her fault, 
  that Frank is the only one to blame in all of this.  He continues to hold
  her and try to soothe her when the door opens and Angela walks in.  Angela
  is not happy.

  Back at the slaughterhouse we see Frank raise the gun and aim at Cruz,
  then his hand drops the gun down and he shoots Cruz in the leg. (thank
  you, thank you, thank you)  Cruz goes down and Jodies rushes to him to
  try and get the blood to stop.  She screams at Frank to give her his
  shirt and he refuses.  She rushes him ready to kill him and he points
  the gun directly at her and says he'll kill right there, right now.  Cruz
  gets her to calm down while writhing on the floor in pain.  He tells Frank
  they'll write the letters.  Frank dictates what he wants them to put in
  them and Jodie cries out when Frank insists that she tell Reese that BJ
  is Cruz's child not his.  You almost get the impression that Frank believes
  what he's having them write. Frank is convinced that once Kelly and Reese
  read the notes and BJ finds out that she's Cruz's daughter not Reese's
  that she will turn to him, frank, for comfort.  He has this whole fantasy
  future in his mind that will become reality if only he can eliminate Jodie
  and Cruz.  They finish the notes, he takes them and leaves.  Jodie does
  what she can for the wound in Cruz's leg.

  Kelly tracks Reese down at the cop shop and tells she needs to talk to him
  at once alone, NOW.  Reese and she take off for someplace private and
  Kelly tries to figure out a way to tell Reese about BJ and Frank.  She's
  in agony because she knows what this will do to him and after several
  false starts she says there is no easy way to say this and just tells
  him that Frank has been sexually abusing BJ.  She says that Cruz figured
  it out and confronted BJ with the knowledge and she finally confessed
  that it was true.  Reese goes balistic and doesn't believe her.  NOt
  Frank, not his friend of twenty years.  No way, BJ and Frank were too
  close.  Frank and Reese were too close.  He would have known.  He accuses
  Kelly of being out of her mind and buying into a story that no way could
  be true.  Kelly tries to convince him but he's as stubborn as ever.  She
  finally gets him to agree to go looking for Frank and confront him.

  Angela makes a series of catty comments about BJ always finding just
  the right buttons to push to have Warren feeling sorry for her. Warren
  tries to get her to shut up but she persists with how BJ is just
  manipulating Warren so that she have him all to herself.  Warren tells
  BJ to wait for him in the back room and turns to face Angela.  He just
  rips her apart.  He's angry with her for being for cold and cruel.  He
  despises this side of her that he sees.  She is shocked.  Why is he
  being so blind to what BJ is doing?  Why can't he see how she's just
  trying to get him in bed?  Warren tells her to leave.  He is going to
  comfort BJ and try to help her and he wants Angela to leave.  Angela
  tells Warren if she walks through that door she's not coming back.
  Warren responds with that's what I'm hoping for.  He leaves to find BJ
  and Angela is standing there stunned.  She turns and leaves.

  At the Oasis the Gina Jeans contingent arrives and runs into, oh my,
  Rich and Lisa.  Talk, talk, talk and they all end up at the same 
  table, just one big happy family.  More talk, talk, talk and Lilly
  comes up with an idea for a chastity belt lock concept for the jeans.
  More talk, talk.  Everyone applauds how brillant Lilly is.  Rafe looks
  on lovingly, Lisa is disgusted (so am I) and Rich seems to be having
  the time of his life.

  Jodie realizes that Cruz is running a fever and is doing what she can
  for him.  He keeps trying to reassure her that everything will be okay
  that they will be rescued.  Frank arrives with food and water.  Jodie
  tries to go after him again and Cruz, once more, calms her down.  He
  tries to rationally talk to Frank.  He starts asking him questions about
  why he abused BJ.  Was it because Frank was abused?  Frank snaps back
  that he wasn't abused that what happened to him when he was five was
  special, just like what happened between he and BJ was special.  He's
  annoyed that Cruz thinks what happened to him when he was a child was
  abuse.  Cruz and Jodie just don't understand.  He leaves them again with
  little hope.

  Warren finds a note that BJ left for him asking him to forgive her for
  what is about to do.  We see BJ at the cop shop where Frank has arrived
  and she goes up to him apologizing for how she treated him.  She
  realizes now that he was right, what they had was special and she was
  foolish to listen to other people.  She tells him they should go back
  to the cabin and talk about it, there's no one there, they can be alone.
  Frank seems a bit skeptical but eventually decides to go with her.  He
  buys into her scam.

  Kelly and Reese arrive at the cop shop looking for Frank and the captain
  tells them that Frank just left with BJ.  Kelly is confused and questions
  whether BJ seemed like she was being forced to go with Frank.  The captain,
  says no, they seemed like father and daughter.  Reese looks at Kelly with
  that smug, I-told-you-so expression and Kelly tries to figure what the
  hell is going on.  About that time someone brings in the notes and the
  captain hands them to Kelly and Reese.  They are the notes that Frank
  had Jodie and Cruz write.  Kelly and Reese look at the notes, look at 
  each other and start to open them.
