It's no good trying to hide it from me anymore, she says, because I know all about it! She pulls open the curtains and reveals the head. I uncovered it, she says, and looked at it. You shouldn't have done that, he says. Didn't I tell you I felt evil in this room? she asks, and I was right, wasn't I?--and now it's killed that poor old man. He died of a heart attack, says Desmond, I must tell his family. He didn't die of no heart attack! she rails, he died of fear, he did--fear of that awful thing!--why did you ever bring it here, it can kill you, too, you know that, don't you? Nothing is going to happen to me, he assures her, but he seems miles away from the fun-loving guy we met. You're wrong! she says--it's already begun to happen--you're afraid of it just like Green was--there's something it wants you to do, and you're afraid not to do it. You just stop talking like that! he says, pointing a finger at her. Let me help you, she begs--I don't want no harm to come to you. Maybe you can help me, says Desmond--this man, before he died, told me something, but I don't know what it means--it concerns something very important that I must find. What is it? she asks. I can't tell you, he says, it's a secret. Her voice rises; she points accusingly at the head and says, you can't tell me because that THING wants you to find it! That's not true! he cries, turning away. Why don't you understand how evil this is? she asks--you must get free of it before it does something horrible to you.[/spoiler]
Dealing with the scenes leading up to and starting off with DC's script's version of Scene 79 (yes, Scenes 79 & 80 are more instances where scenes are somewhat different in DC's and Grayson's scripts):
Mrs. Johnson paces the dark drawing room of the Old House. She looks out the window and sees Barnabas and Julia returning. They enter the house; he begins to light candles. Mrs. Johnson comes out and asks them, did Carolyn tell you anything? Nothing at all, he says. You must not blame her, says Mrs. Johnson, she's blocked it all out--too painful. We know that, says Barnabas, we didn't try to torment her[/spoiler]
