Shame on everyone for not touching this.

I tried to convince them the trial was deliberately planned by someone out to destroy you, but it did no good. Did you tell them Gerard was behind the whole thing? asks Quentin. (He finally gets it!) Gerard? repeats Daphne. Yes, says Quentin, does that surprise you?--think about it for a while--in material gains, he has the most to gain if I'm out of the way. No, Gerard said he was for you, I always thought he was, says Daphne. That may have been his most brilliant tactic, explains Barnabas--if Quentin were found guilty, then Gerard stood to win and keep everything--but if Quentin were found innocent, he would still win, because he remained Quentin's friend and stood by him. Daphne paces, taking all this in. He has both sides to play, says Quentin, but believe me, he intends to see this through to the end--but he can't claim a complete victory until they've taken my head! Don't talk that way! begs Daphne, you're not going to die--Barnabas, there must be a chance for an appeal! I urged them to consider this, but I had no success, says Barnabas sadly--unless we find some other solution, I'm afraid, Quentin, that it's all over. Quentin looks as if it already is.[/spoiler]
