If you don't want to know the circumstances surrounding Friday's entry in this slideshow, then don't read any further...
[spoiler]Friday's quote:
Ep #926 (1970) - Megan - 'His is the only way. His cause MUST be served.'
From "Robservations 5/6/03 - 926-927 - Michael Must Die!"
This is the second time a quote comes from Ep #926. The first was back on April 27th (Philip - 'You MUST not be protective about Michael now!).
[spoiler]Friday's quote:
Ep #926 (1970) - Megan - 'His is the only way. His cause MUST be served.'
From "Robservations 5/6/03 - 926-927 - Michael Must Die!"
Megan comes down and asks, am I to be punished? This is no time for punishment, says Barnabas--you thought what you were doing was right, even though it wasn't, and I understand that--now you must try to understand--what your true responsibility to the boy is. I love him very much, she says, her eyes alight. As it should be, says Barn. Megan gushes, he's the most wonderful child in the whole world, and even though I know what I almost did was terrible, I fear I've let Michael down, and am afraid to face him when he comes back. Michael has caused a great deal of friction between you and Philip, hasn't he? asks Barnabas. Yes, says Megan defensively, but it's only because Philip refuses to understand him, makes no effort with him. And you feel your love for him requires you to do anything he asks you to do, don't you? asks Barn. Yes, says Megan, as if it's a religious experience--how can I refuse him anything, he's so wonderful? You can, says Barn, because your first allegiance isn't to him, but to me. What do you mean? demands Megan. Exactly what I said, says Barnabas. Her face changes--that's impossible, she hisses, he is the one I serve! Are you sure you're all right? he asks--perhaps it's time to--reconsider. Why? she asks, his is the only way, his cause must be served--why do you doubt that? No, I don't, says Barn, I was only testing you, making sure YOU have no doubts--you're very good for him, Megan, but you love him too much, are blind to his faults--love him less, see him as he is, be strong and firm, comfort him, discipline him, protect him--mother him. She goes into Barnabas' arms and hugs him--I'm so glad you came when you did., she says--I only wish Philip could understand me as you do--now, what are we to do? I'll tell you what is to happen now, says Barnabas--do not grieve for Michael. Megan looks ready to start grieving right now.[/spoiler]
