Golly what a chilling ending to the episode. It was written by Ralph Ellis. Nice job.
The last time I watched this episode, the public outcry over pedophile priests was at its height in Boston, and I kept thinking of that through this whole storyline. This time around, I recently was driving around Danvers, formerly known as Salem Village, specifically looking at houses associated with the witchcraft trials, so today naturally I was thinking of 1692 as I watched David and Amy. We have no doubt that there were no witches in Salem at that time - but the Salem children had to have been behaving like David and Amy. What will I be thinking of the next time I watch this episode?
I wonder where Barnabas and Julia were when Elizabeth didn't find them at the Old House. Barnabas had been so concerned about what was happening to the children - and now he's nowhere to be found! Maybe he and Julia were at the cottage with Chris. But where was Carolyn?
David was terribly brave, telling Quentin he wanted out. He had to know by this time that it was futile - but he made his stand for the side of good.
Mrs. Johnson's collars are always worth a look. Rather nice lace today.
