05.29.02 - Wednesday: Superstition

As Ed and James look on from their unique perspective above the scene, Alison enters a church and prays for divine intercession. After making love with Ricky, Karen startles her bedmate by declaring that this can never happen again. Mary is dismayed to learn how Frank stole his file from Kevin's office. Unseen by Alison, Rafe wanders into the same chapel and confides to a passing handyman how he feels nothing for the girl he's supposed to love. Meanwhile, Alison relates for the minister how lonely she's been for Rafe. Mary recounts for her son a traumatic experience from his childhood of which Frank has no memory at all. Ricky angrily reminds Karen that the difference in their ages and backgrounds is totally beside the point. Later, Karen gently but firmly tells Ricky that they must be ""just friends"" from now on. Rafe decides to try and make it work with Livvie despite his partial amnesia and some qualms about their peculiar relationship.
