Cassandra wins – or does she? Cass successfully stops the experiment via voodoo. Still alive, Barn is convinced it is Cass who has thrown a monkey wrench into the works. He goes to Collinwood, confronts her and at one point threatens to destroy her by fire – I loved Frid’s delivery of that line. Cass feigns incredulity as per usual. Barn pleads with Cass in a roundabout way to let Lang live so the experiment can continue. Now that Barn’s had a taste of the good life, he doesn’t want to let it go, and who can blame him? I really feel for the character at this precise point in time. A long dramatically dying Lang records a message for Barn & Jules stating (in a nutshell) that if the experiment succeeds Barn will stay free of the curse as long as Adam lives. Barn convinces Jules to take on the experiment. While studying Lang’s notes, Julia falls asleep and has the dream. This time its Mrs. Johnson she follows to the room of doors.
Afterthoughts: I guessed wrong about what was behind Julia’s door. I expected it to be the syringe she prepared to kill Woodard. I totally don’t get the bridal skeleton for Julia. Anybody? I was less than impressed with Hall’s Dream Curse performance. I think I am over my enthusiasm for the Dream Curse.
Mrs. J’s confrontation with Cass was ‘fun’ but unfortunately (for Addison Powell, not me) it was Lang’s death sentence.
