So it would appear that Julia is addicted to tea. The scene: de Jong-ter Braake household, Wageningen, 11 PM 30/8/2007.
LIZZ: I'm hungry. (Hunts about in kitchen for something to eat)
Enter JULIA.
JULIA: Tea. (Stands in kitchen doorway for a moment, then goes over to tea cozy, opens it, pours herself tea.) I think this is about my twelfth or thirteenth cup today...I've lost count. (Tea fills glass about an inch, then runs out)
LIZZ: Hmm, pity.
JULIA: Well, I don't think I'll make any more. Too much tea.
Exit JULIA.
LIZZ: (Prepares bread and cheese--WITH BUTTER! She is becoming one of...THEM. Anyway.)
Enter JULIA.
JULIA: (Rushes over to hot-water maker and turns it on, placing a teabag in her glass) TEA!
LIZZ: (Laughs) Time for more, then?
JULIA: (Stares intently at water heater) Come on, go faster...faster...I NEED TEA!
Water just comes to a boil.
JULIA: (Flips switch off and snatches hot water pitcher from the heating apparatus) Teeeaaaaaa!!!!!
LIZZ: (Laughs very hard) I can't believe you just did that. Ahahahahahaha. You're addicted to tea.
JULIA: (Distractedly) Yeah, maybe (Anxiously pulls teabag around so tea will steep faster) Come on, come on tea.
LIZZ: See if you can drink twenty cups in one day. I dare you.
