It seems like at least Barney should have said "I Ching, here I come..." and gone back. Could it be that a certain governess is affecting his choice to remain in the past?
It almost seems to me that Barnabas has forgotten his whole reason for going back to the past. Rachel seems to be the only thing on his mind lately. Did he really think Angelique would resurect Quentin to his normal state with Rachel around?? She practically did the same thing to Vicky when Barnabas went back to 1795 to save her!! Yet, he still continues to flirt with Rachel and ask Angelique for favors at the same time! I would think that if he really cared for saving Quentin then he'd stay away from Rachel once and for all!

One has to wonder though if the same thing would have happened to Quentin had Barnabas not traveled back to the past. Im sure Rachel would still have been snopping around the house and eventually found herself in the tower room with Jenny. Then later on, Jenny escapes and stabs Quentin at the cottage. This would mean then that Quentin did "actually" die when Jenny stabbed him therefore like you mentioned, Magda couldn't have had the chance to put the curse on him. So it does makes us wonder what really did happen then?
This would lead me to think then that perhaps Angelique had something to do with Quentin being stabbed. Knowing first hand how much Barnabas wanted to save Quentin, she knew that if he were to be "killed, " naturally, he would come to her and ask her for her help. So perhaps Barnabas being there did change history so far and that being Angelique's presence there to cause all of this. Otherwise, it really doesn't make sense to me that Quentin could have died like this before Barnabas had traveled back there.
BUT, something obviously did happen to Quentin otherwise his ghost wouldn't be haunting Collinwood and Chris wouldn't be a werewolf.
IMO I really don't think that Quentin dying by the knife this way really had any effect on David back in the present day Collinwood. The reason being would be that Barnabas' spirit or whatever would have been wisked back to his body in the old house basement since his mission would now be over. And since Julia & Stokes are back there with him wouldn't they have summoned him back had David recovered as soon as Quentin was killed?
I also thought David Henessey did a great job at portraying Quentin yesterday, especially with that sinister laugh of his! ;-)
BTW, I miss Julia! She's probably sitting there worrying herself sick over Barnabas and thinking that he must be going through the worst kind of danger, and yet, here he is, vampire and all, having the time of his life chasing after Rachel!! If only she knew....
