[spoiler]Today's quote:
Ep #255 (1967) - Barnabas - 'You MUST make sure that she doesn't. You know what will happen if you fail.'
From "#0255/0256: Robservations 11/21/01: Sarah and Maggie"
Maggie seems eager to be what he wants, but once he kisses her hand, she draws it away from his icy lips. This angers him. When will she forsake that common creature, Maggie Evans? Hearing her true self thus insulted, Maggie slams the music box closed and says, through gritted teeth, "NEVER!" She's Maggie Evans, that's all there is to it, so he might as well just kill her. Barnabas is just about to give her what she wants when Willie bursts in--her father is heading for the Old House and will soon be at the door! Maggie becomes instantly agitated and Willie grabs her and puts a hand over her mouth. Barnabas gives him a handkerchief to gag her with, and orders him to take her to the top of the stairs so she can listen to what he has to say. If she cries out or does anything, not only will she die, but so will her father! (Barnabas has rarely been meaner, but worse is yet to come).
The Robservations is another with less detail, so it doesn't even reference the quote. However, after Willie grabs Maggie and covers her mouth with his hand, he suggest they should take Maggie back downstairs. But Barnabas prefers to leave her there. And after Willie protests that it isn't safe because she might make a sound and her father might hear her, that's when Barnabas delivers the quote. Willie protests again, but Barnabas orders him not to argue with him and then gives Willie the handkerchief...
And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Barnabas - 'And you MUST be Josette in every detail') was back on November 22nd of 2020.
