    This is a great episode of Jake In Progress, and I think with every new episode the show gets better. Also, another high light is Julie Bowen guest staring. She is absolutly beautiful and adds a real warmth to the screen.The show is a Gem and episodes like this will be the very thing that keeps us wanting more.
