I think you may be right about this. The shooting script is much more obvious about BOB's involvment in the Donna incident: # asking what Laura's father looked like. Laura starts to get it on # with Buck when she hears BOB, "See what we can do to Donna?" Laura # screams at Jacques to get Donna out and at Donna to never ever wear # her clothes. There isn't a similar reference in the section of the posted summary where she leaves James at Sparkwood and 21, but my memory is at one point in their little scene she seems to have a vision (presumably of BOB). By now she is convinced that the only way she will escape BOB is by dying and that otherwise, she will corrupt both Donna and James, like she did Bobby. Ultimately involving them with BOB. In the Harold incident, she specifically states that she believes he is safe from BOB, though she later states it is dangerous for him to take the diary. -Rich
