Finally out from under a pile of work here! What a great episode--I think, anyway.
Julia tells Barnabas that she's written an incriminating letter and left it with a "trusted friend." She dares him to call her bluff, but later she tells Willie that she was improvising. Barnabas will know you were lying, Willie frets, wringing his hands.
Barnabas has just decided that Julia was lying and has put his coat on before going out on his killing spree. But for what I think is the first time, he actually hears Sarah's flute music. He calls to his little sister longingly, but the music simply continues as he weeps.
Joe returns Sarah's doll to Maggie, who finally feels secure enough to sleep peacefully.
Willie feels anything but secure. Still on the terrace where he met with Julia, he agonizes, I’m sure Barnabas will kill Maggie! And once he does, that will be just the beginning. Next he’ll kill David, then Burke, then-- who knows? He finally weeps with despair at his helplessness.
Later, Maggie wakes up and spots the shadow of a man at her window. She and her pop listen in terror as they hear eight gunshots.
Who was shot?????
