Dealing with the next two scenes in the sequence (using Grayson's script):
121 INT - GALLERY - DAY 121
And that's when today's first quote -Page 61/Scene 121 - Gabriel: 'What of my brother Charles?'
- comes up, followed by today's second quote -Page 61/Scene 121 - Strack: 'He must learn the lesson of the damned. He shall watch her die.'
- coming up, followed in the script by:
Strack
They look at each other.Traskturns, leads them
from the room. Sarah is panicked. She leaves her
hiding place and tiptoes to the corridor.
And as far as differences in the dialogue go, there aren't any because the dialogue is delivered exactly as scripted.
And as far as differences in the directions and the descriptions go, it's interesting how DC covers having dropped Scene 120 because following Sarah's final reaction in Scene 119, instead of seeing Strack move to the window, we see Sarah's POV of Strack walking away from Gabriel, but as can be seen in the following capture -
- Strack actually moves in the opposite direction away from the window (), but from that we then see, as can be seen in this next capture -
- Strack is moving away from apparently having been at the window, and he moves toward Gabriel, who, as we can see in the next capture -
- is on Strack's opposite side from where we last saw them in Scene 119 (apparently it must have been quite the dance that Strack did to first walk in the opposite direction from the window but then to walk from the direction of the window - and all in the space of under three seconds of screen time - but if we're feeling generous, maybe we'll just chalk it all up to the marathon editing session imposed by James Aubrey ) - and also, I love the wide-eyed expressions on Laura's face as she looks at Strack after Angelique's fate has been sealed -
- and then to Gabriel -
-and then to Strack again -
- as Charles' punishment is decided - and while we do see Sarah's panicked reaction to hearing Angelique is going to die, we don't actually see Stack turn and lead Gabriel and Laura from the room nor do we see Sarah leave her hiding place and tiptoe to the corridor - ...
Also, DC has a note that before he asks about Charles, Gabriel walks to the table and then turns to them, though that's pretty obvious given the captures I've already shared.
I'll do anything you say, anything you want, I will. Very well, relents Barnabas--gather all you have written--and burn them. Burn my book? asks Will, horrified--oh, no, you don't know what a book means to a writer. A writer!--all you did was copy down what you forced me to tell you, says Barnabas--now gather the book together and burn it! No! cries Will. It's time you do precisely what I tell you to do, says Barnabas. No, insists Will. "Is that your final answer?" demands Barnabas (hey, Regis stole that for his game show)! Barnabas advances threateningly on Will; when they are face to face, the writer agrees--all right, I'll do it--I'll do anything you say. Nothing must disturb the sleep or sully the name of that other Barnabas Collins who died in this time, insists the vampire--"Come--we will burn the book together!"
... here's a rare alternate version of Gabriel and Strack -
The Daytime TV caption for it reads: "Thayer David (Rev. Strack) convinces
Gabriel that his wife Angelique must
be destroyed. Part of flashback segment.
- something that was also published as part of that same Daytime TV article that I've shared portions of in Reply #124 (Angelique on the stairs), Reply #286 (Gerard wielding his club), Reply #287 (Angelique scratching Gabriel), and Reply #414 (Quentin confronting Carlotta). (And even more from that article is yet to come, more fairly soon, and actually it's two that are not so soon...)
So I accessed DP's Barnaby Jones and took a screencap with my phone:
Despite that we hear claps of thunder earlier in Scene 119, the first time the closed captioning acknowledges one is after Rev. Strack says "This evil must be driven from the land before it destroys us all." (another "MUST" quote!! ) -
- and before Gabriel agrees "You're right. There is no other way." - and of course there's no acknowledgement of the thunder by the subtitles because, as I've said, for some strange reason given they're supposed to be SDH subtitles, they rarely if ever highlight any sounds...

This next still, a somewhat cropped version of which appears on page 110 of the DS Companion, is more in keeping with the way Scene 119 was actually shot:

Julia holds a landscape that she and Liz found. It's incredible, remarks Julia--it looks almost exactly like the Tate I found last week--the sky is painted exactly the same way--Harrison Monroe, 1968. I bought it at a charity auction last year, says Liz--thank goodness it was a worthwhile charity, when I got home with it, Roger told me to come right up here with it, and I did. They chuckle. I wish I knew more about paintings and artists' techniques, says Julia--it seems inconceivable that two artists could paint so much alike. You're asking the wrong person, says Liz. Julia asks, may I take the painting to Stokes? Why the interest in Tate? inquires Liz. Professor Osmond said he died 10 years ago, says Julia, but this says 1968, must be some solution!
Wrapping up Scene 119 and moving beyond (using Grayson's script), beginning with today's quote -Page 60/Scene 119 - Strack: 'The evil must be driven from the land -- before it destroys us all.'
- coming up, followed in the script by:
GABRIEL
(a sigh)
You are right. There is no other
way.
Strack
Sarah reacts, asTraskmoves to the window, looks
down and nods.
120 EXT - COLLINWOOD - DAY 120
STRACK'S
THROUGH THE WINDOW -TRASK'SP.O.V.
Four strong men stand staring up at the window. At
Strack'sTrask'snod, they move off in the direction of the
house.
And as far as differences in the dialogue go, Strack actually says "This evil" - and Gabriel actually says "You're right."
And as far as differences in the directions and the descriptions go, there aren't any of either in the script that pertain to the dialogue, however, DC's script has a note that indicates that Strack (though it's still Trask in his script) crosses to Gabriel as he warns that the evil must be driven from the land, and as can be seen in today's capture -
- that is what happens - but what neither the script nor DC indicates is that while Strack is saying "before it destroys us all", as can be seen in this next capture -
the camera is actually on a close-up of Sarah - and while DC's script also has a notation that Gabriel isn't suppose to appear in the shot until after Strack is finished with his warning, obviously, as can also be seen in today's capture, that is not the case - and as can be seen in this next capture -
- Gabriel remains in the shot after Sarah's reaction to Strack's warning and before Sarah's reaction to Gabriel coming around that there is no other way - but DC's notation also indicates that the camera would whip to Sarah and truck in on her reaction to Gabriel's decision, however, the shot of Sarah's reaction is not whipped to, and as can be seen in this next capture -
- the framing of the shot remains the same as the previous shot of her and there is no trucking in - and after Sarah's final reaction shot, not only don't we see Strack go anywhere near the window, Scene 120 is actually dropped in all versions of the film.
And one thing that's interesting about Scene 119 is that there's much more of Sarah in it than is indicated in the script. But as we'll soon see, adding more of Sarah is a situation that will be quite dramatically reversed because all sorts of her stuff will be dropped left and right before too long...
And finally, the original slideshow for NoDS included this line -
NoDS: Scene #119 - Gabriel: 'You're right. There is no
other way.'
- because it was quoted in the Fest's 1999 Movie Calendar, upon which the original slideshow is based.
More witch speculation:... It's intriguing to imagine a version of the story where...It's intriguing to imagine...
Angelique has Magda join them and asks her to deal with "a small matter of theft" for them-- she describes the scarab to the gypsy, who is reluctant to help. You have no choice, insists Angelique-- I will tell Barnabas you were out of the house when Laura visited him this morning-- my feeling is, he'll kill you. Barnabas can't kill Magda, says Quentin-- if she dies, I'll remain under her curse. I can't be involved in that, says Ang--I only care that Barnabas be protected, whatever the cost or who must be destroyed-- Barnabas must be kept safe forever!
Here's a reminder of a still from Scene 119 that was previously posted in Reply #38:

Take note that it's in keeping with the previous stills posted and not with the way the scene is actually shot...
