If you don't want to know the circumstances surrounding Saturday's entry in this slideshow, then don't read any further...
[spoiler]Saturday's quote:
Ep #518 (1968) - Prof. Stokes - 'You don't say much but you seem to understand very well what's said to you. That's most unusual. We MUST find out why.'
From "Robservations 6/12/02 - #517/518 - Stokes, Dream Police"
The Robservations paraphrases but references the circumstances of the quote well...
And this is the third quote from this ep. The first (Ep #518 (1968) - Sam - 'Listen to what I have to TELL you. I MUST TELL you the dream before I die. I MUST') was back on June 30th of 2020, and the second (Prof. Stokes - 'Please, I realize how difficult this is for your father, but I MUST impress on both of you how dangerous it would be if the dream went one step further') was back on March 27th of 2021.

Adam spots the light shining in the window and gazes in. He opens the door and enters. Stokes, waiting for him, greets him, "Adam?" Adam is all set to run, but Stokes assures him he's a friend and wants to help him. Adam is mistrustful, afraid, despite Stokes' assurance. The professor observes the scars, calling him an extraordinary creature. When Adam tries to push Stokes away, the latter drops a stick pin on the carpet. Stokes says "Friend," says Stokes--I AM your friend, possibly the only one you have left--I can help you, give you food, which you can't survive without. The word food makes Adam point to the kitchen, which surprises Stokes. "My name is Adam," says the big man, and Stokes asks him to say more. "Paintbrush" says Adam, showing him the object. Stokes is pleased.They must find out why Adam says little but understands what is said to him. He offers Adam a home with him, give him lots of food, teach him to speak and communicate with people. Adam tries to say "Communicate," and Stokes says he'll help him learn quickly--they'll be good friends. He leads him out, and Adam repeats the word "Friend" with good cheer, happy to have found someone who cares-and is alive.
