For those of you watching on DVD, here are several scenes not included in Sony's version that are just from the first hour!
There are also a few bits and pieces that were shot that are not even included on MPI's VHS. They are:
In an extension of the scene in the drawing room, Elizabeth tells Roger that David needs a family,... and a father! He reveals that last night, he talked his son into joining him on a walk along the beach at dusk, though he was surprised David agreed. Roger talked about Europe, about his own childhood-- anything he could think of, but David was silent until he pulled on Roger's arm to ask one question-- if he liked him. "If I liked him," he repeats.
"I went down on my knees and grabbed him and squeezed him as hard as I could. I said, 'David... David, you're my son. I love you. I love you more than anything else in this world." Close - Elizabeth - There are tears in her eyes. Back to Roger, as he continues, "And you know what he did? He just pulled away from me and ran off up the beach... and disappeared over the rocks."Elizabeth assures him that in time they'll get to know each other, but Roger says, "I'm not so sure, dear sister." Then, "I'll try to say this so that I'm still left with a shred of dignity," he adds, and confesses to feeling resentment that his son is alive; "May the Lord forgive me," he says, "but if it would have saved her sanity, I would have left him to die in that burning room." Elizabeth is speechless.
Joe leaves the Blue Whale to watch Vicki get into Willie's pickup. Willie: "Night, loverboy. Hee hee hee." Vicki waves, and Willie speeds off. Joe stomps inside, calling Willie a jerk who needs to learn some manners... "especially if he's gonna mess with someone crazier than him." He makes Daphne giggle, then slings her over his shoulder to carry her to his car for some "night fishing." Maggie calls it "just another night at the Blue Whale."
Interior Car: As Joe pulls open the back door, dumps her on the seat, quickly climbs in, shutting the door behind him. Daphne, laughing, "Joe... You are crazy..." He grabs her, plants a hard, smouldering kiss on her. Daphne, quiet, more serious, "I thought you had to go." Joe, "I do." He kisses her again, softer and more earnest this time, "But that doesn't mean I want to." Daphne looks up at him, runs her fingers through his hair, then slowly pulls him back down on her. Daphne, "That's good..." They kiss, long and steaming this time.[This scene immediately follows the previous one.]
Interior Pickup - Moving - Night: The truck rumbles along the road, its dim headlights barely keeping ahead of them. Willie glances at Vicki, giving her a long once-over. Willie, "Cold out tonight." She looks at him and holds it as he leans over and punches open the glove compartment. Taking out a pint of Wild Turkey, he unscrews the cap, slugs at it, then offers it to her. Vicki, "No thank you." He smiles, takes another, longer belt, wipes his mouth with the back of his sleeve. Willie, "Collinsport's a dump!" He looks at her; she doesn't respond. Willie, "Fulla creeps, like lover boy back there. Collinwood ain't no better. Small town, small minds. (A grin) Know what I mean?" Vicki, "I haven't really seen enough of it to say." Willie, "You will. And anybody give you any hassle, you need somebody to set 'em straight, I'm the guy. Okay?" Vicki pauses a beat, concludes that humor is the best policy, and nods. Vicki, "Okay." Willie smiles, glad that he's making headway.
Exterior Collinwood Grounds - Night: The pickup turns into the long driveway to the house...[This scene continues from Willie stalking out of the kitchen and leaving his aunt.]
Close - Mrs. Johnson: As she stands there watching him go, she shakes her head sadly, "May God help you - I certainly can't."
Interior Great Hall: As Willie enters from the direction of the kitchen, stops in front of a large portrait done in somber blues and blacks. It is the brooding figure of an eighteenth century man, a cape around his shoulders, a silver wolfhead cane in his hands, a large distinctive black stone ring on his finger. Willie stands there for a beat, staring up at the dark eyes. Willie mutters, "I got you now, mister... I got you now..." And he turns, starts toward the big, front doors. Camera holds on the portrait. And then begins a slow move to the eyes... as a low thumping sound of a heart beat begins to filter in...The ladies are having tea when Vicki asks how long David has been without his father. Elizabeth says about 6 years. She brought him back from England when his mother took ill, and it has been hard on him. She calls him a bright boy with an amazing imagination, and Carolyn responds, "If you can call putting garter snakes in my dresser imaginative." Vicki and Roger are introduced, and her compliment of Collinwood prompts Roger to explain that Elizabeth always had a gift for maintaining the house in the grand manner. Elizabeth says, "Style should be the dress of thought. It tempers life with grace." She looks to Vicki, who agrees and then asks if a painting on an easel is a Seurat. Elizabeth says it's a copy, and Roger interrupts with "it was painted by another artist." Vicki looks at it more closely and declares that it's very good. Roger asks if she enjoys art, and she answers that it's one of her favorite teaching subjects; "I think that children express themselves very well through drawing and painting." Roger says he supposes she gets to know them better, and Vicki says they get to know themselves-- that's the challenge. Roger tells her he thinks his son is as much a challenge as she can handle; he's certain he is different from any boy she has taught. Roger excuses himself for the night, and Carolyn smirks.
When Barnabas is explaining about Collinwood's history, after he mentions the marble:
"This wainscotting was fashioned from the richest Baltic woods and" then he continues on about the windows.
Later in the same scene, after Liz gets excited about the family's first home coming back to life,
"And you could stay here while the work was being done, God knows we have the room." Barnabas (a beat), "A generous offer... But I've already taken rooms at the Inn. (A beat). I may even be able to make a portion of the house habitable soon enough so that I could actually move in there."
