If you don't want to know the circumstances surrounding today's entry in this slideshow, then don't read any further...
[spoiler]Today's quote:
Ep #518 (1968) - Sam - 'Listen to what I have to TELL you. I MUST TELL you the dream before I die. I MUST!'
From "Robservations 6/12/02 - #517/518 - Stokes, Dream Police"
[/spoiler]
Here we have an instance where the Robservations doesn't summarize the teaser act because it's a recreation of the closing scene of Ep #517. Robin frequently did that. However, even if I'd taken the quote from its appearance in Ep #517 (though at the time I'd picked it I didn't actually know it's also a part of that ep), it wouldn't have changed things all that much because the Robservations for Ep #517 also makes no reference to it. But as I've mentioned before, the Robservations from this period of time are nowhere near as detailed as most other periods on the show.
(What is interesting, though, is that later on in Ep #518 Sam says "I must tell the dream" - and I could have gone with that because it is included in the Robservations for Ep #518 - but I didn't want to go with that as today's quote because it's nowhere near as good as the quote I did pick.)
But be any of that as it may, beyond what I wrote yesterday about today's quote, it is perhaps very fitting that we close out this sub-theme with a quote from the Dream Curse plot because, well, one of the major points of it was to be compelled to TELL the dream...
And as we look forward to what may be coming up in the slideshow in July, I feel my own compulsion to TELL and so I MUST tease that Midnite came up with a major find to kick the month off. But more on that tomorrow...
