If you don't want to know the circumstances surrounding Wednesday's entry in this slideshow, then don't read any further...
[spoiler]Wednesday's quote:
Ep #475 (1968) - Prof. Stokes - 'You MUST keep it on your person always if it is to be effective.'
From "#0475/0476: Robservations 05/09/02: Give Me Jeff Clark's Face!"
Stokes is fascinated by the house--early Greek revival, but more satisfying than Collinwood. The Professor starts examining a an antique table, and remarks that the man was drunk when he made that. Barnabas is impatient and offers Stokes a grand for the talisman. Stokes says no, he couldn't afford to buy it back. Name your price, persists Barn, and Stokes realizes his impatience. He says he'll give it to Barn on loan, but won't sell because he might need it someday, as Barnabas does now. Keep it on your person, says Stokes, and finally hands it to him.Stokes says he won't forget this evening, it's a chapter in a book he intends to finish. (a truly delightful scene between these two.) Barnabas holds the talisman and looks at it.

The Robservations references the quote well, though not completely...
This is certainly one, if not my absolute favorite Stokes scene on the show. It's priceless!
And this is the third quote from this ep. The first (Dr. Lang - 'No! No! No one else MUST know!') was back on October 16th of 2020, and the second (Dr. Lang - 'Oh, yes, I suppose I MUST') was back on April 13th.
