We present the rest-frame 200--320 \mm\ spectrum of the z=3.91 quasar \apm, obtained with Z-Spec at the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory. In addition to the \jeight\ to \jthirteen\ CO rotational transitions which dominate the CO cooling, we find six transitions of water originating at energy levels ranging up to 643 K. Most are first detections at...
