I love the idea of a room outside time. I suppose the window of that room must be boarded up, so that Vicky can't look out and see life happening - but even if she can look out, that might not prove anything. Imagine being shut up in that room forever, with nothing changing, not even yourself. At least it would be better than being chained up in a coffin, I suppose.
I don't understand why it was necessary to go through all the rigmarole to get Vicky's ring. Some Vaseline on her finger while she was asleep would have done the job, or even some magic of the sort that Cassandra used to open the door to Adam's room at Collinwood - but I guess it was more fun to terrorize Vicky.
That plan of Nicholas's sounded just a bit ridiculous today. A race of superbeings. I kept waiting for Angelique to say, "Hey, I'm human, so what's so bad about the human race?" And then I started imagining a championship match-up between the human race and the super race, with people cheering their favorite team...bets taken...popcorn, anybody?
