Roger is once again trying to get his sister to send Vickie packing
Elizabeth says to Roger," You never were much of a fighter."  Of course she doesn't know how hard he is fighting to him stay out of jail, but there is only one thing Roger cares about which is  his own hide to quote Burke

Vickie tells the Stoddards about the ghost and she decides once again to leave.  Roger comes in and agrees.  His hands shake is visable as he passes the tea.  It makes one wonder if the actor or the character is the one hungover. 
Roger and Elizabeth talk about ghosts and Roger infers that they too have had experience.  They go to the room under the eaves and find the seaweed which Elizabeth disposes of in the drawing room fireplace.
Now Roger calls David a sociopath.  What a loving father. 
Vickie decides to leave it up to David whether or not she stays and wants to know why he hates her.

Sam's payoff was 15,000 and he blew it all.  He does seem like one of those people who spend like crazy and then wonder where it all went.
Joe gives Maggie a goodbye kiss as 2:15 in the morning. I grew up in a town not unlike Collinsport and the only people up at that time were the Sam Evanses.

It sounds like rain pouring down in the introduction.   David goes about his normal life.   Carolyn goes to Burkes room gets a drink and gets a kiss.  When she leaves Burke states that she is going down.

I thought the same thing Lydia about Bill Malloy.  I can't see him singing that song, but I'm sure its a public domain song so no money to pay out in royalties.  Really Bill seemed so uptight all the time and to be in love with Elizabeth for all those years when there was no chance as Ned was apparently ahead of the game there and he got the heave ho also. 
Vickie crazily cries to the high barred window to let her out.  Would there really be someone out on the roof in a strorm? 
It seems like the seaweed that Vickie sees at the end to confirm that she isn't dreaming of the ghost is already in place on the floor.

Maybe Vickie doesn't know you can take the pins out of a door, but considering that she lived in an institution all her life, it would seem that she probably at one time saw a door being removed.   There was so much junk in that room there had to be something that would break the door down or at least knock a hole in the panels so she could reach the key.

They should have kept the black number from episode one. I remember Peggy Lee  we always thought she was the real life inspiration for one of the muppets.

David talks about his friends that live in that part of the house that never really died.  Love the storm and trudging thorugh staris and hallways filled with cobwebs and piles of old furniture. The attic room with one high barred window seems designed for some mad member of the Collins family.  Did Jeremiah have someone in mind when he built the house?  This is the best strom so far and David locks Vickie in the room for the rest of her life. 
Could that weird rolled neck dress have really every been considered fashionalbe?

This seems to be a kinescope episode.  There was no voice on the VTR opening.  I keep wondering how they managed to break off the corner of the board and then tape it back togerther with electrical tape. 
If roger were smart he'd leave the pen somewhere near his office where his secretary would find it and then give it back to Burke.  He's still have to worry that Vickie might see Burke with it, but at least he'd have Burke and Carolyn off his back about the pen.
We learn that the Collins cannery only deals in sardines.  I guess that's symbolic of how they have fallen from the days of Jeremiah. 
I can see how Alexandra would be frustrated with Vickie's stupidity.  Going in the west wing alone with a known attempted murderer, who has written death on your mirror seems foolish.
I can see Elizabeth as the type of person who would walk the grounds in a storm or be out checking something with Matthew.  David may also be lying that they are alone in the house.

Totally agree with Janet about David's dialogue
Roger arrives at the coffee shop in a new car  a GTo or a Lemans.   The insurance company must have come through and at least they recalled that he wrecked the mustang and didn't use it again.
Burke suddenly wants his pen back after not even caring enough about it to just give it to Carolyn in the first place and not thinking about it until now.
Roger is scheming again to get Vickie to leave again. One would think that between Roger and Carolyn alone her head would be spinning.

I'm wondering if is her daughter's name is Ima.
Matthew exits the doors of the real Seaview.  In town another confrontation with Burke over Collinwood and threatens to burn it before Burke would live there.
Mrs Johnson would do the cooking and general cleaning if she is hired.  Elizabeth is concerned about the village learning the goings on at Collinwood.  Mrs. Johnson assures her she is not a gossip and respects privacy.  Hmm!  wonder how many people she told about the bad mayonnaise at the diner?  Elizabeth needs to think more on the situation.

Roger continues to plot and double deal behind everyones back.  He tries to convince Vickie to influence her boss about Mrs. Johnson and Elizabeth comes in and informs Roger once again it is her house. 
Carolyn's hair seems more bouncy than usual as she brushes it in Vicki es room. 
Roger is excluded from Joe and Elizabeth's meeting.  He then tells Carolyn that Joe and Maggie were on a date.  Nice Uncle.
The call is placed and Elizabeth talks to Mrs. Johnson about a job at Collinwood.
Vickie shows Rioger the pen she found at lookout point.  Now the variables of how it got on the beach and what time are infinite and yet Roger freaks out over the whole thing.  I guess this is to imply that he may have had something to do with Bill's death, but really all it means is he lost a pen sometime before he got to the meeting and it somehow ended up on the beach on the day Vickie found it.

While Elizabeth is considering more live in help to populate Collinwood, perhaps a live in psychiatrist for David would be in order.  Burke manipulates the young boy as easily as he does his cousin.

Vickie is on her way to the Library to get a book.  I wonder where it is and why don't we get to see it?   
Evans and Collin's finally talk as if they are worried that someone might overhear them, but the constant furtive glances are enough to make others wonder.
Elizabeth reveals to Roger that she plans to hire Mrs. Johnson.

Elizabeth says that she'd find Burke attractive if he were not out to get them.  I wish the writers would go in that direction and how interesting it would be if he turned out to be Vickie's father.   Then Elizabeth reveals to her daughter that life with Paul was nothing.  My first reaction would be to say, "Then Mother, why did you lock yourself up in Collinwood for eighteen years?"
