I'm surprised that no one has pick up on Julia and her training. She doesn't talk like a historian. She talks like a DR. I wonder why Burke and Roger didn't pick up on it. Maybe they don't expect some one to lie to them.
Maybe the idea of a woman as a doctor wasn't one that would occur readily to them.
I love the switch that Barnabas pulled with the coffin and the trunks, and gosh, how convincingly angry he was when Dr. Woodard and Burke asked to see the basement! I wonder if he would have managed to change his mind so convincingly if Burke hadn't mentioned the search warrant. Good old Burke, always happy to help out his friend Barnabas.
Julia arrived back at Collinwood soon after David did, so apparently Barnabas moved the coffin and the trunks around by himself, while Julia cased the situation at Collinwood and did what she could to delay any action.
Isn't Julia lucky! She's found herself a man for whom she can do her absolute favorite thing: lie. She didn't seem to be enjoying it as much as usual today, though.
