Good one!!

Mausoleum - Julia stands beside Barnabas' coffin. She listens outside the door, touches the coffin once more, then opens the secret panel and leaves the tomb. Carolyn darts out at her, demanding, what are you doing in there? Julia, startled, says, I was seeing who is buried there--"I am interested in the Collins family." Carolyn shakes her head, shushing her. You shouldn't say that name, warns Carolyn. It's a proud and honorable name, states Julia. Is it? asks Carolyn, who giggles and says, "Perhaps once." Julia insists, you must remember--tell me, she says, what were you doing here? Carolyn thinks that one over, grins and makes a noise, but no response. You and I used to be honest with each other, Julia reminds her, let us be again. I'm looking for my mother's grave, says Carolyn...no, my mother isn't dead--is she? You tell me, says Julia. No, of course she isn't, how silly of me, says Carolyn--I like this cemetery, don't you--I find it peaceful, so many things are peaceful I didn't expect to be--Collinwood is peaceful now. What makes it peaceful? asks Julia. Carolyn gazes at her and laughs--time, she says...time--I never go here, you know--why should I?--I have everything I want where I am--my mother's ink well, and a portrait or two...where is your friend--where is (viciously) BARNABAS? In the village, says Julia. Is he? asks Carolyn, are you sure? Quite sure, says Julia. What's he doing there? asks Carolyn, sounding like the Inquisition. Trying to find out what you wouldn't tell him, says Julia. Carolyn bursts into cackles of laughter. I think you're deliberately trying to stop us from finding out, says Julia, and are acting this way for a reason. I act the way I am, laughs Carolyn, clasping her hands together. I don't believe that, says Julia. Her laughter cuts off abruptly; Carolyn says, if my mother were dead, we would have buried her here, wouldn't we?--we wouldn't have buried her in some strange place? No, says Carolyn, answering herself, she would be here. Carolyn, says Julia. The blond says, in a warning voice, "You'd better go and find your friend, Julia--before he gets into trouble!" Julia looks uneasily around and walks away. Carolyn stares after her. A hatted, ancient Eliot Stokes exits his hiding place in the bushes and joins Carolyn. You see, I told you, she says, you must make them go--you must. He nods, and agrees: "WE must."[/spoiler]
And now Diabolos and Nicholas! You're hitting all the greats this week!
Nicholas begs for a second chance, but the Master tells him he doesn't give second chances, nor sympathize with those who do. No, Nicholas was given an opportunity, but because of a woman allowed it all to slip away.Nick implores his boss for a little more time, he can prove himself. That's what every condemned man needs and never gets, sneers Diabolos, just a little more time. Nick says everything can be salvaged, but the Master reminds him that Eve is dead because of your negligence--and you can't use supernatural powers to bring her back to life. No, protests Nick, the experiment will be performed again and Eve will be reborn. Diabolos gives him 48 hours to accomplish what he must. Nick protests it isn't enough time. That's all you're getting, says Diabolos--you are free to go for as long as it takes for the experiment to be completed, then you will return here. But if I succeed? asks Nicholas. You haven't succeeded yet, Diabolos reminds him, but, if Eve is restored to life, we shall see. I don't want to return here, says Nicholas. No one ever does, intones the Master. If I give you what you want, I deserve more, insists Nicholas--to remain on earth, without my powers. How will you survive? wonders Diabolos. Perhaps I wouldn't, says Nicholas quietly--it's because I want Maggie with me, admits Nicholas--I love her very much. The Master pronounces Nicholas hopelessly lost--no wonder he made such a mess of things--when the experiment is over, you must return to hell. I won't be allowed to be with her? Asks Nicholas. I didn't say that, says the Master--your story has touched me--I mean that you can be with her. Nicholas is excited. Then the Master drops the other shoe, "But only here." "But that would mean she would have to die," protests Nicholas. Yes, says the Master--arrange it--there is something else that must be done before she can be accepted here--she must be sacrificed on the black altar. No, protests Nicholas. It's the only way you can be with Maggie, says the Master--the black mass must be performed![/spoiler]
It's Count Petofi! So much love!
And look at the lighting in that shot. Gorgeous! Like a Mario Bava film!
Aristede finishes locking Barnabas in his coffin. Petofi exults that they can give Barnabas more attention at the mill than they could in the west wing of Collinwood. Barnabas will be surprised to find himself here when he wakes, says Aristede. I don't think so, says Petofi, putting his right hand on the coffin; Barnabas and I have been at war for sometime, this is one more battle in this war--the last one--it will go on until Barnabas gives me what I want. It will be difficult to get the vampire to give up his mission in this time, says Aristede. Difficult, admits Petofi, but he assures him, I shall do it--military strategy, doing what it takes to win any crucial battle--increase the pressure and increase the enemy's discomfort until he can stand it no longer. Petofi balls up his fist--until he has no choice but to surrender. Aristede asks, how will you increase the pressure? Thus far, says Petofi, only those whom Barnabas cares for in this century have suffered--now I shall attack from the other side, hit him from both directions and catch him in pinchers from which he can't escape until he gives me what I want. Now I will start working on those Barnabas loves in 1969. Aristede points out, you cannot see that time; how will you know who those people are? Barnabas mentioned one name with whom I can begin, says Petofi, and realize he must return to his own time, and take me along--David Collins, of course. Petofi grins in triumph.[/spoiler]
if, as in the case of Portia Fitzsimmons, she has any "MUST" quotes at all...
