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 #706 (1897) - Magda - 'You MUST wait for a will. The cards are silent.'
From "Robservations 10/28/02 - #706/707 - A Helluva Dysfunctional Family"
The Robservations references the quote quite well...
And I love this moment from the scene -
- after Magda says Edith is dead, she tells Carl she felt her spirit and he turns to look around - delightfully amusing...

Magda tells Carl the money will not stay with the person who gets it. If I get it, says Carl, it will stay with me, and not any of my siblings. Magda picks the death card and gasps. She rises from the chair, walks around the room staring at the air, waving her hands about. Carl demands she finish, but she shushes him, then says, "She is gone now! Edith is dead!" Carl is stunned--how do you know? The cards, and then I felt her spirit, says Magda. Where? asks Carl. She tells him the reading it over and they must wait for her will--the cards are silent. Carl grabs and shakes her, demanding to know if Grandmother told Edward the secret. No, she says. Someone has to know, asserts Carl. Someone does, she insists, but not Edward. He shakes her harder, insisting, tell me who does know!. Go! she commands, get out and grieve for your grandmother. I am going to, at least, she says sadly.[/spoiler]
