[spoiler]Tuesday's quote:
Ep #643 (1968) - Roger - 'He MUST have been a boy when this was sent to him.'
From "Robservations 9/12/02 - #643/644 - David, Amy and Quentin"
Roger goes into the drawing room and opens his briefcase on the desk. A large book falls from the piano to the floor. Roger turns and looks at it. He picks it up and opens it. He finds a piece of paper inside, a letter. He looks at it, puzzled. When Carolyn comes in, he tells her it's a letter addressed to his father, Jamison, dated 1887. He must have been a boy, muses Roger. "Dear Jamison, you must return to Collinwood, I need your help. You must intercede with Oscar. Only you can save me." They wonder what it means. It's signed "Quentin." Roger doesn't know the ancestor, who spent most of his time abroad, well. Roger describes how he found the letter in the book, which toppled from the piano. He wasn't anywhere near when it happened. They wonder how it could have fallen. Carolyn says SHE did it--Magda--she wanted them to see the letter.

Once again the Robservations leaves out a part of a quote but still references the quote well...
Aside from that fact that "Oscar" is mentioned in the letter and that character was renamed Edward somewhere along the way before the show reached the 1897 storyline, the subject of the letter seems a bit odd when one realizes that not only would Jamison have been a boy when the letter was sent to him, in 1887 and in the person of David Henesy, Jamison would have only been something like 2- or 3-years-old. What adult would be writing a 2- or 3-year-old to intercede with an adult?! But apparently they weren't thinking like that at the time they dated the letter, nor were they likely to have been thinking of David Henesy playing Jamison in the 1897 storyline (though they probably should have) or they never would have made such a big blunder. Though at least originally the audience had probably forgotten all about that letter by the time the 1897 storyline came around three months later. It's only those of us who've rewatched the show who see the letter for the blunder it really was...
And this is the second quote from this ep - and not only the second, but the second from this same scene. The first (Roger(reading) - 'You MUST intercede with Oscar. Only you can save me') was back on September 6th.
