Re: Discuss - Ep #0238

I wonder if the opening of the front door to the Old House is something that Barnabas can't control, like the howling of the dogs.

What's going to happen to Willie?  Barnabas is scheduled for a limited run.  When he is destroyed (by manly Burke, surely, in the course of rescuing Vicky from yet another locked room), what will happen to Willie?  Will he die defending Barnabas?  Will no one ever know the torment that Willie endured?

[Joeytrom]

Wille was probably going to be killed off as well, perhaps right before Barnabas was.  It would have been interesting if they planned for him to die in a heroic way by trying to save Maggie or Vickie.

I wish they had an outline of the original plan somewhere.  HODS may have been similiar to what was planned, but I doubt they would have done exactly what went on in the movie.

Very cool exterior shot, but doesn't Willie have his work cut out for him with all thouse askew shutters and stuff?

I'd like to know which bedroom is Barnabas' too.

Brimming with femininity. Say that three times fast.

[spoiler]It's possible that the last time Barnabas was in his room was when he died there!   Maybe he doesn't want to go into it...[/spoiler]

Right. Forgot about that. But where does he get dressed and wash up? Does he shave?

But where does he get dressed and wash up? Does he shave?

Me, I relentlessly continue to be curious as to whether Barnabas poops.   It would be embarrassing if I ever met him, because I'd eventually find a way to work that into the conversation.   Not that I'm suggesting that he would do this in his room, but on the other hand, there are such things as bedpans...

Barnabas does ingest blood, so I suppose his metabolism does something with it.... I suppose MT is right about his room at the Old House.

Meanwhile, his portrait is finally done and hanging above the mantel in the drawing room.

Poor Willie is mortified at the girls' praise and terrified for them at the same time. But after he ushers them out of Josette's room, instead of seeing them out of the house, he stays to straighten things up--dreading another beating, I suppose, if just one little thing is out of place.

And we end with dinner for two....

The Star gets delivered to the doorstep of the great house. I wonder if the paperboy gets a big tip for the distance and the hills.  Vickie just walks into the old house like David which makes me think of the similarities between the two once again.  When the girls reveal to Elizabeth that they restored Josette's room she pointedly wonders about it.  The no faced Josete gets no credit for he work.
