Dennis Patrick walks off behind Julia's back, then Julia is mystified that he's gone, as if he disappeared in a puff of smoke. It's like the reactions on Bewitched when E Montgomery poofs away the second someone's back is turned. She should have just said, "Oh crap, he got away!"
It looks as if Julia's setting Barnabas's chair on fire for a moment, but there's a candle hiding behind it.
I wish Julia were more worldly and unflappable like Natalie or Magda. This is very awkward dialogue. Julia's doing something very dull, though, just waiting around endlessly. It's hard to write good lines for that. It could at least make sense though. These are the same writers as in 1897, right, so why do some scenes sound like they came from a failed high school creative writing student?
Does Carolyn know about the I Ching? Alright... the story was that Barnabas had disappeared while they were sleeping. Poofed, or just wandered off? If the former, why is CS shocked at the additional bit of news that it happened before Julia's eyes? If not, did they report Barnabas as a missing person?
Julia's only additional fact #2 for Carolyn is that he can only reappear in the same spot. Carolyn had better know about the I Ching, or this is all gibberish for her.
CS: "You're assuming that when Barnabas... reappears..." She can't say it with a straight face! She says Chris called... I pictured him as the werewolf in the mausoleum, grunting and howling to her over a cell phone.
Philip Todd's sweater has a belt. Oh yes... I remember that. There were sweater-vests with belts, too. We were supposed to wear those for a few years. I didn't. I was a stubborn cuss, even as a kid.
Carloyn is flummoxed by the idea that Julia likes art.
End: D Patrick walks by the cairn, and it opens. First I pictured him having beeped at it with one of those remotes that lock or unlock your car, or whatever they do, I never had that.... then I pictured the cairn sliding open in time for someone to shoot a miniature-golf ball into it. Tougher than the windmill, you never know when it'll open.
