Something else that needs to be discussed concerning Ep #4 (Hour 5) is how material that was shot was dropped and material that was shot for other eps was included.
Sharp-eyed viewers have probably always noticed that Wayne Tippet's name appears in the guest credits but Dr. Fisher is nowhere to be seen in the ep. That's because whatever he did ended up on the cutting room floor though either his contract or union rules required that he get billing even if that happened. And when it comes to at least one scene he shot, photographic evidence exists in the form of the following stills:
I've always presumed that the scene had something to do with the family learning from Sheriff Patterson about Prof. Woodard's fate. But who knows? And if that is the case, who knows why Dr. Fisher was there? But unless someone comes across the script, I suppose we'll never know what transpired in the scene...
Also, I've already mentioned that the scene this quote comes from -
Ep #4 - Elizabeth: 'I feel as if some dark cloud is
descended over Collinwood.' - was inserted into Ep #4 after it was shot for Ep #2 but never included in that ep. However, when it comes to Ep #2 we do see a scene of Liz and Roger and several scenes of Roger wearing the same clothes. And perhaps we're supposed to presume that it was so much fun for Liz and Roger to wear the outfits together that they decided several months later to wear them together again during the events of Ep #4. Though somehow I doubt that really would have been the case.
Plus, I really doubt it was all that fun when they wore them in Ep #2 because it was on the night they were trying to trap VampDaphne, which is what Liz' mood actually referred to in the context of Ep #2's script.
And once I get the chance later on, I'll go into how several dropped scenes from the pilot were incorporated into Ep #4...
