OK - here's the end of the novelization of Scene 116 and it will be quite obvious when it reaches the part that deviates from DC's script's version:
It's too bad the end of the scene was dropped somewhere along the way. And not that I hold anything against Barbara Cason because she did well with what she was given to do, but it's too bad that Clarice Blackburn didn't get to play Mrs. Johnson. If so, perhaps what was dropped from Scene 116 wouldn't have been because I can just see Clarice's Mrs. Johnson racing down the corridor and screaming, "She's dead! Miss Carolyn is dead!" A classic Mrs. Johnson moment that never was...
And one other thing that I'd like to share in the post is perhaps my favorite hoDS teaser poster - one that certainly relates to the parts of the script we've dealt with today:
Carolyn looked at her blankly, much too far gone to see her. With a terrible sigh she crumpled on the floor. Mrs. Johnson screamed and knelt down by her. "Carolyn, speak to me!" the housekeeper begged her. But Carolyn lay there motionless. With horror or her face, Mrs. Johnson felt for a pulse beat and then drew back from the fallen body, ashen pale. For a moment she stood frozen, staring down at Carolyn. As realization of what had happened finally got through to her, she wheeled around and began racing down the corridor screaming, "She's dead! Miss Carolyn is dead!" |
