In the room where she is being kept prisoner, Julia muses, I could hear someone if they were coming, and they could hear me if she called to them--but she hears nothing, and she's so tired, so very tired. . .but I must not fall asleep, I've got to stay awake, it's my only hope--"I've got to stay awake!"[/spoiler]
And wrapping up Scene 85, beginning with the script explaining:

Magda wrings her hands nervously, walking around the mess of the Old House drawing room. She rights the candles in the stand. Johnny returns, empty-handed, and says, I see nothing but a lying, thieving gypsy. She begs him. He reminds her, call me "King Johnny." I don't have the hand and don't know who does, she says, and I can't tell you who does.You are Magda, who can say anything you want to say, he says--maybe you need some help in remembering, he suggests--I will give you that help. He hits her across the face, first with the front of his hand, then the back of it. How about that?--do you remember the name? asks Johnny. He draws out the knife--or do you need more help? Magda spots something under an overturned chair--the box containing the hand! King Johnny takes the box and says, you finally realized going against your people was a little too dangerous--you were clever, as always, you slipped it there while I was upstairs. I swear I didn't, says Magda, because I don't have it--the box must be empty!

Julia starts the liquids flowing through the glass beakers, turns on the electricity, lifts both switches at once. Barnabas' body arches in pain as the electricity crackles. Dials roll, paper tapes run through the machine. Barnabas moans, and he tells Julia it must be working, he feels himself getting weaker, his life slipping away from him. He seems to welcome this, but Julia appears alarmed. Julia grows uneasy; puffs of smoke erupt from several places, unnerving her, and she spins the dials crazily. She turns off the power, then checks Barnabas' pulse. He's still alive!
