If you don't want to know the circumstances surrounding Thursday's entry in this slideshow, then don't read any further...
[spoiler]Thursday's quote:
Ep #728 (1897) - Quentin - 'Edward, she's your wife. Now surely you MUST be curious as to what became of her when she followed me out of this house and halfway around the world.'
From "Robservations 11/15/02 - #728/729 - Quentin Seeks Jenny--and Beth"
Love this scene between Quentin and Edward. But then any scene involving the 1897 siblings interacting (usually arguing) with one another is special...

Edward promises not to let Jenny near him again. Quentin says it already happened once, but Edward assures him it won't happen again. "Your pomposity is disgusting," pronounces Quentin, "oh, Edward, you're so brave and proud, and enjoy your role as custodian of the family secrets." Quentin chuckles--you've conquered all of us, and we know we've been wasting our lives because you will always be here, pasting us together again, to perpetuate the myth of family honor and dignity--"You're everything each of us is not--solid, strong and honest--and your mind is hermetically sealed!" We've only discussed MY wife, says Q, we haven't gotten around to yours. And we aren't going to, insists Edward. Why haven't you asked me about Laura since I returned? Quentin asks. I don't care, Edward says. "But Edward, she's your wife--now surely you must be curious as to what became of her when she followed me out of this house and halfway around the world." (Ah, now we understand why these two hate each other so much--once again, Q was a bad boy.) Not in the least bit curious, says Edward, she no longer exists for me. Quentin tells him, flippantly, I last saw her in Alexandria, Egypt. Edward doesn't want to hear more, and forbids him to mention her name in this house.Quentin laughs, liking that--it's so like you![/spoiler]
