After Barnabas has waxed on (in August 3rd's quote) about the old house being the family's home for hundreds of years (certainly much longer than in the original series! - which begs the question of when the pilot's Collinwood was built?) and asked Roger for his permission to restore it, the script indicates that:
Roger looks at Elizabeth. She silently urges him to say yes.And right after that is when Roger delivers today's quote:
Page 36 - Roger (still suspicious): 'As long as I'm not involved. Welcome to Collinsport.'
And tellingly Roger delivers the latter part as "Welcome... to Collinsport," obviously emphasizing that it's not welcome to the family, or even welcome to Collinwood - it's simply welcome to Collinsport. But then, as the script indicates, Roger is still suspicious of Barnabas.
And after all of that, the script then indicates -
OFF Barnabas' haunted look...- and it's the end of the scene.
And interestingly, beginning with what we'll get into tomorrow, from that point on for the rest of this month and even a bit into next month, nothing that we'll be covering in the slideshow from the script appeared in the pilot. Some of it was completely dropped, while something else was radically changed. But we'll start to get into all that tomorrow...
