Will is quite the whipping boy here, first bitten by Barnabas, then thrashed by Quentin. And he has the ultimate punishment as he is forced to burn all his notes for his proposed book. Barnabas has the upper hand here and makes sure that Will knows his place.
Odd scene in the cemetery. Did Barnabas think that his namesake would be able to send him back home? I too wonder why the ghost of PT Barnabas wasn't used here. It would have given Frid something different to play and might have kept him happy for a while.
For a ghost that is supposed to dedicated to the protection of the family, both living and dead, Joshua doesn't do very much. He does nothing to thwart Angelique, Yaeger or [spoiler]Roger[/spoiler]. Dameon Edwards actually did more or at least attempted to.
Barnabas is quickly established as a distant cousin again, this time with ties to Peru instead of England. No attempt is made to explain his accent. His resemblance to the portrait seems to give him carte blanche. Hoffman and Angelique still seem to have doubts but, as yet, no real reason to investigate further.
Barnabas is a bit too eager to see the room, where he and Quentin conveniently see Dr. Hoffman talking too much.
