Three Little Words
« on: May 17, 2002, 06:28:32 PM »
Dear Fellow Dark Shadows Fans,

I'm sure we all waited with bated breath as Jeff was about to tell the lovely Vicky just what were those "three words that could change my life" in Dr. Lang's medical report on Jeff.  The tension was almost unbearable, and for the life of me, I expected young Mr. Clark to repeat the earth-shattering and life-altering words:

"I LOVE YOU!"

By the way, did you notice the sharp gray three-piece suit and snazzy rep tie that Jeff was sporting at 8:00 AM?  (Apparently, Jeff likes to always walk around in a suit, twenty-four hours a day just like Mr. B.)  Evidently, that vest must have been too uncomfortable for Jeff, because after he left Vicky at Collinwood, you could see that Jeff had unbuttoned that cumbersome article of clothing.

You know, for a guy who, how should I put this politely, is an itinerant drifter, Jeff's got some nifty, expensive threads.  Old Sam Evans must be wondering why Jeff can't afford the top floor of the Collinsport Inn like the apparently, late, lamented Burke Devlin?

Finally, I was somewhat puzzled when Julia said to Barnabas that he might have made a mistake in confiding to Prof. Stokes that Cassandra was the witch.  Excuse me, but didn't the good Dr. Hoffman spill her own guts out to the learned professor?  

Sincerely,

Bob the Bartender, executor of Dr. Lang's estate.

I suspect Vicki bought Jeff those clothes.  Seriously, I think she's keeping him.  If I were her, I'd give him away.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by Julia's spilling her guts out to Stokes.  Perhaps it's a scene yet to come?

Love, Robin

Dear RobinV,

I guess I mean that the super-secretive Dr. Hoffman is always so reluctant to say anything that might concern her work and relationship with Barnabas, that I was surprised that she even told Prof. Stokes about her dream and how, after Stokes told her of the dream's possible ramifications, that someone close to her might die.  (How's that for a short sentence?)

After observing the good Dr. Hoffman for so long, I think that she must live by the credo, "Don't let your left hand know what your right hand's doing."  Yet, I wish that she and Mr. B. would hold there their super-secret meetings in a more secluded spot than on the terrace of the great house of Collinwood!  They might as well be in the middle of Grand Central Station at 8:30 AM!!!

Sincerely,

Bob the Bartender, urban cowboy and Kathie Lee Gifford groupie.

In the case of Barnabas telling Stokes about Cassandra, he was revealing the identity of the "suspected" witch without realizing Stokes' connection to her.  Julia described the dreams and what had been happening, but wouldn't reveal who she suspected was the intended victim of the curse.

Dueling three words:

Jeff Clark: "I love you."

Vicky: "I don't understand."

Barnabas: "But you must!"

Julia: "Buh - buh- Barnabas...."

Nicholas Blair: "Ha ha ha!"

Angelique: "I curse you!"

David: "Please believe me!"

Prof. Stokes: "I believe him."

Roger: "Enough of that!"

Elizabeth: "Stop it, Roger!"

Carolyn: "He's right, Mother."

Hallie: "I'm so frightened!"

Maggie: "You're a jerk."

Vicky (reprise): "I don't understand."
