Carl enters, in a frenzy, commanding that Quentin get rid of Magda--I won't speak in front of her. She chucks Carl under the chin and asks, don't you like me anymore? Carl turns away and says, just go, please. It's always a pleasure to leave this house, says Magda--Quentin, Barnabas wants to see you this evening, at dusk. Carl reacts--dusk, yes! He asks Quentin, where are Judith and Edward? Both are dreaming of Judith's money (funny), says Q. We must wake them, says Carl, we must do something. Do what? asks Quentin--there are so many things waiting, such a choice. Not about this, says Carl--sometimes I wishes I hadn't had the dream--the one where Pansy told me the vampire isn't dead. Dream again, says Q--Edward described the staking of Dirk in great, graphic detail. No, says Carl, not Dirk, there's another, Pansy said so in my dream--she said who made Dirk a vampire. Laura, guesses Quentin. No, says Carl--I can prove it--I saw the vampire go to his coffin--I know you won't believe this. Quentin suggests, you've gone mad. No, says Carl--Pansy told me to go to the mausoleum--there's a coffin there, I swear it--you must believe me--I know who the vampire is! Tell me, demands Quentin. "Barnabas," says Carl. Quentin tips his head back and laughs; his laughter fades as realization strikes him--Our cousin we never see during the day, who always appears at dusk, says Q.[/spoiler]
