[spoiler]Monday's quote:
Ep #313 (1967) - Caretaker - 'No. No, there is no help for you. No help is possible. You MUST rest. Rest. Rest.'
From "#0313/0314: Robservations 01/14/02: Incestors Galore"
The cemetery caretaker, a real hoot of a guy, finds the mausoleum gate open and goes to investigate. When he hears David's voice calling, "Help!" from behind what is supposedly only the back wall to the tomb, his eyes widen as he responds,"No, there is no help for you, you must rest!" to what he assumes are ghosts. He runs off, leaving poor, lonely David losing hope. He falls asleep again against the stone steps.)

Considering this Robservations was also done during the period when they really lacked detail, it's almost amazing that so much of the quote is included.
This was one of the first DS eps I ever saw. To this day I distinctly remember my 11-year-old self relaxing on the couch and watching David trapped in the mausoleum. But what I distinctly remember from watching my very first ep is Barnabas and Willie panicking in the drawing room of the Old House, and because I know I started watching the same week that school started again in September, that means the first ep I ever saw was Ep #312, the one before this one. Of course, I don't remember the details of what they were panicking about (that David might know too much about Barnabas or that Joe and the sheriff wanted to search the house because all of that meant little to me at the time) but I've never forgotten how much Willie was going off the deep end, as he often did.
Now, the funny thing is one might think what would have really stuck in my mind from Ep #312 was how Barnabas, in full fang mode, had almost attacked Vicki out on Collinwood's terrace. But I had no memory of that until I saw it again in '70s syndication. Apparently even when it came to my very first ep it was the character elements that made the strongest impression on me and not the horror bits, despite how exciting those always were. Though that being said, I strongly suspect that Barnabas almost attacking Vicki helped to make me want to watch the show regularly...
