And when it comes to today's quote from Scene 117, Quentin's reaction to Carlotta's claim that she doesn't know what he's referring to -
Hoffman and Stokes will be waiting for him, wondering why he's so long. Angelique doesn't care. What can I tell them? asks Barnabas Tell them anything, she suggests--tell them the truth. Barnabas can't do that--what can I say? I'll leave it up to you, she says. They'll be suspicious, he reminds her. You must end their suspicions, she instructs him. Yes, but it won't be easy, he says. She says that Stokes and Julia already suspect too much--he must end that, and she's sure he'll find a way. "You may leave me now--temporarily." He gives her a look of hatred as he starts to leave, and she repeats her orders about Stokes and Julia. Yes, he says. "I release you," she tells him. "You may go." Giving her another look of hatred, he limps away, and she looks after him, a woman in lust with her victim.[/spoiler]
Beth comes downstairs. She tells Judith Jenny put the "babies" back to sleep. Judith calls Beth a fool--we are all turning as mad as she is--those aren't babies, but breakable dolls--she's had dozens of them, and can't tell the difference between them. She can't tell the difference between anything anymore, rants Judith, including life and death--and I won't have it, not now that all this is mine. I said nothing against you, insists Beth, she just happened to find you there--all Jenny is afraid of is that you'll take her babies away. Beth, she must go, insists Judith. She has no where to go, says Beth, and you know that. Rachel is beginning to suspect more than she should, says Judith, and mustn't know about Jenny--nobody must. Beth heads back upstairs.[/spoiler]
