The scene continues with yesterday's quote -
Page 89/Scene 194 - Barnabas: 'There is much about her in the family journals. She was from the West Indian island of Martinique. A creature as delicate and warm as the trade winds of Caribe.
- followed by the script explaining:
He turns to gaze at the portrait, speaking with growing emotion, as if pulling the thoughts from deep inside himself.

And then today's quote -
Page 89/Scene 194 - Barnabas (CONT'D): 'The original Barnabas Collins supposedly met her there while on a business excursion on behalf of the family shipping interests. He was... quite taken by her beauty, and her feelings for him were similarly tender. They became paramours and intended to marry... when her untimely death shattered their dreams.'
- comes up.
And so far as the dialogue goes, it's mostly delivered exactly as written with the exceptions that Barnabas actually says "She came from" rather than "She was from", he actually says "The original Barnabas Collins met her" rather than "The original Barnabas Collins supposedly met her", and he says "until her untimely death shattered their dreams" rather than "when her untimely death shattered their dreams."
But when it comes to the direction and descriptions, as can be seen in today's capture -
- Barnabas doesn't turn to gaze at the portrait - in fact, most of the time he speaks directly to Vicki - that is until he mentions how the "original" Barnabas and Josette became paramours and so on because for those bits he stares off into space as if, as the script describes, he's pulling the thoughts from deep inside himself.
