B is for (Mr.) Best.
I'd like to think she would be able to rise again, her powers restored
I like seeing Dennis Patrick make Jason's lines flow like whisky at an Irish wedding.
SE Maggie just think the money that I get from this portrait, I can put down as a down payment on my bar tab at the Blue Whale.
Personally I think Nathan was always out for himself. Being close friends with Barnabas and the Collinses would no doubtedly gain him some clout in the community, and make him a upstanding citizen because of his relationship with the town's most prominent family. But, maybe Nathan realized that his relationship wasn't going to give him all he wanted, so he had to get in farther, and thusly started courting Millicent. He had to eliminate those around him who would pose a threat, and with Vicki's smart mind, she no doubtedly would've seen right through him in no time (provided that she STARTED understanding some stuff). This drive for survivial and the selfishness led to everything that Nathan did. He helped Vicki at Barnabas' request, but saw better opportunity to paint himself in a good light by turning in the town witch and gaining celebrity for catching her. Incriminating part of the Collins family would eliminate the men who would be in his way in trying to woo Millicent, and at the end of it all he'd still have her upstanding name and back accounts.
This is an excellant explanation of WHY Nathan changed, one I hadn't come up with myself even after wracking my brain for years trying to figure it out. It certainly sounds very plausible to me.
My mind is sort of muddled at the exact sequence of events: [spoiler]Did Liz tell Vicki about Paul Stoddard before or after this episode? I remember Liz sat down with Vicki and told her that she killed her husband and try to sway Carolyn away from asking questions or going to the basement but I can't remember if it was before this episode.[/spoiler] Vicki is acting as though she knows or strongly suspects foul play. In this episode, Liz admits that Paul's things on in the basement but nothing more.
I feel that the stupid nit writers (which I will refer to them as when they make some blooper IMNSHO!) thought Willie was unworthy of Maggie so they'd pair her up with someone other than Willie
