If you don't want to know the circumstances surrounding Saturday's entry in this slideshow, then don't read any further...
[spoiler]Saturday's quote:
Ep #493 (1968) - Mrs. Johnson - 'And I know as hard as I try, I MUST tell him.'
From "Robservations 5/22/02 - #493/494 - Baby Comes Home"
The Robservations only references the main point of the quote...
One thing that's very interesting about the summation of the this particular scene is that it seems like every other line in the scene has the word "must" in it, yet the Robservations doesn't mention most of them but instead uses a "must" in a line where Julia actually says "got to," as in "We've got to stop this dream before it's too late."
And I have to say that I absolutely love the body language Mrs. Johnson and Julia display in the capture -
- they perfectly convey the tension of the scene...

At Collinwood, Julia examines Lang's journals. Mrs. Johnson comes in and gasps when she sees Julia. She asks if David is there. He isn't. Mrs. Johnson doesn't want to find him, she tells Julia, she's afraid to see him--she's going to her room and stay there. I've had the dream, says Mrs. Johnson--it was so terrifying! Julia doesn't want to hear Mrs. Johnson talk about bats screeching and begs her to stop. Sarah is crying, saying she tried to resist her beckoner, David, but couldn't. Never tell him the dream, Julia orders. Sarah explains that she was forced to do everything in the dream--and she must tell it to David! Julia sits Mrs. Johnson down and tells her they must stop the dream before it's too late. If she doesn't see David, she can't tell him, Julia reminds her.[/spoiler]
