&gt; So, if I wanted to set a varable on object_A, from code in object_B,
&gt; I have to call code in object_A that does this, right?

right.

&gt; This is how encapsulation's suppose to work. What has me confused
&gt; is where is the code that sets this var? is there a builtin to do
&gt; it, or is it suppose to be a method?

You have a method do it, no builtins (that I know of) get parent defined
parameters, only parameters on that object.
