Barnabas utilizes a little blackmail--he saw her with Nathan, and he brought her home VERY LATE! She's flustered, but she insists Nathan is genuinely fond of her--and besides, both of them are single. Barnabas tries to warn Millicent that the charming Nathan is too much for an innocent like her to handle, but she refuses to listen, and diverts the discussion by saying she COULD arrange for Josette and herself to be taking a walk when Naomi and Natalie are in town, and he COULD accidentally run into them--the garden gate after sundown! Don't fail him, says Barnabas soberly; this is a matter of life and death.

[spoiler]Today's quote:
Ep #1092 (1970) - Julia - 'On October 14, 1839, the original Quentin wrote: "Tonight I do what I dread-- I MUST GO and see G at the cottage." G MUST mean Gerard, and the cottage MUST mean Rose Cottage-- Gerard MUST have lived there.'
...
Again the Robservations references the quote perfectly - and it's the very first quadruple "MUST" quote. Perhaps even the only such quote we'll see...

After Claire spots Tracy in the water and Alex dives in to pull her out, as he nears Claire who kneels by the pool's edge, he says in more unscripted dialogue, "Get her, baby." - and that's reflected in both the subtitles -
- and the closed captioning -
- and then quite interestingly in another supposed bit of unscripted dialogue, the subtitles indicate -
- and the closed captioning indicates -
- but for the life of me I don't hear it, no matter how high I turn up the volume - and Alex' mouth doesn't even look like it moves to say anything - the only thing I hear is Claire's breathing - and as has been the case in the past, it can't even be a case that they got it from the script because none of the dialogue that appears in this section of the scene is scripted. Who knows?! Things that are in the film aren't always acknowledged, at least not always completely and/or accurately, and things that aren't (like that supposed sound of footsteps in Scene 149) are...
To be continued...

Before we get to today's new scene, we need to wrap up Scene 188, starting with the end as scripted:
188 CONTD CONTD 188
Suddenly, Alex ENTERS THE SHOT, diving into the pool.
HOLD as we see him swim to the bottom and grab the
inert Tracy. He brings her to the surface as Claire
helps him pull her out of the pool. Again and again,
he pumps at her back as Claire stands watching. And
then finally, with one huge gasp, Tracy begins to
breathe.
End of scene - though that's not quite how things play in the film - for example, Alex doesn't dive into the pool so much as -
- jump, and he doesn't retrieve Tracy from the bottom of the pool because he actually grabs -
- her partially floating body - and once he's brought Tracy to the edge of the pool, several bits of unscripted dialogue come up, beginning with Alex telling Claire -
"Get her, baby."
- and while he's pumping Tracy back, barely audibly he says -
"Come on, honey."
- and then Claire, who's not simply standing and watching but kneeling right beside Tracy, crys -
"Tracy."
- and after water finally spills out of Tracy mouth without a huge gasp or otherwise, Claire leans down to embrace Tracy and once again she crys -
"Oh, Tracy."
- and she begins to sob. And that's how the scene actually ends.
Scene 186 (the road near the pool house as the headlights of the Jenkins' car come toward camera) isn't in the film, but it's really just an establishing shot that isn't needed because Scene 187 is the Jenkins in the car as shot through the windshield. And when it comes to Scene 187 it begins with unscripted dialogue as Claire asks in both the closed captioning -
- and the subtitles -
- which also jump ahead with the first part of Alex' unscripted line that finishes off in the subtitles as -
- and appears in the closed captioning as -
