If you don't want to know the circumstances surrounding Thursday's entry in this slideshow, then don't read any further...
[spoiler]Thursday's quote:
Ep #1102 (1970) - Daphne - 'But I MUST think. I MUST decide what I MUST do.'
From "#1101/1102: Robservations 09/11/03: Caught!"
Another quote in the rare league of triple "MUST" quotes. Though the Robservations just glancingly references the real quote - it only has one "MUST."
[spoiler]Thursday's quote:
Ep #1102 (1970) - Daphne - 'But I MUST think. I MUST decide what I MUST do.'

Quentin enters the cobweb-filled room in Rose Cottage--Daphne! he calls. He lights a candle--I know you're here--don't hide from me--I'm not going to leave this house until you come to me! She enters the room and flings off his hand. Why did you disappear? he asks--and why did you come here? There's nothing for me at Collinwood, she says. I let you go to the children, he reminds her--what happened there?--what were you trying to make them do?--Willie told me about the pentagram and candles--what were you getting them to do?--does it have anything to do with why they are now sick? Daphne whirls around upon hearing this, staring at him. They are sick, you know, he tells her, She shakes her head in disbelief. You promised me you wouldn't hurt them, she says. I didn't! she cries. Then who did? he asks. Don't ask me that, she says, turning from him again. He faces her and demands the name--say the name! Go back to Collinwood, she says--you'll only make things worse. How? he asks--by being with you, by asking questions? Please, she begs. No, he says--I will not leave until you tell me what is going on--why you've come here, what are you going to do? She looks sad. I'm very foolish, he says--also vain--I thought the reason you came here was for me--I see that isn't true, isn't it? If they are sick, she says, you must leave, let me think. Think about what--about whom? he asks--say the name. Gerard, she says. Do you love him? he asks--is that what all this is about?--I don't believe it--not when I see the love in your eyes for me. You see no love, she insists. Why are you denying it? he asks. I can't explain anything, I told you that, she says. Why?--are you so terrified of Gerard? he asks. Every moment you stay here, the worse it is for the children, she says--believe me, go! All right, he says, if I believe you, if I leave, eventually, will I find out what's going on around here? She nods--if you leave me now, I must think and decide what I am to do. He takes her hands--I promise to help you fight Gerard, he says. Don't say that, she says, pulling her hands away, don't say that here! Why, is he here? asks Quentin--do you feel his presence in this room? Just go before you make things worse, she pleads. He backs away and leaves without another word. Daphne calls to Gerard--I sent him away, she says, I'm trying to do what you want me to do--please don't punish the children for what I've done! Oh, Gerard, don't kill them--I'll do anything if you'll just let them live![/spoiler]
