Moving on with Scene 149:
149 CONTD CONTD 149
And that's when today's first quote -Page 71/Scene 149 - Tracy: 'I know someone's in there!'
- comes up, followed in the script by:
Finally he blows.
And that's when today's second quote -Page 71/Scene 149 - Quentin (mimicking her): '"I know someone's in there"...You make me sick! I can't even stand the sight of you anymore.'
- comes up, followed in the script by:
TRACY - QUENTIN'S P.O.V.
She can hardly talk as the tears well from her eyes.
And that's when today's third quote -Page 71/Scene 149 - Quentin (O.S.): 'Now get out of here!'
- comes up.
And when it comes to what's different with the dialogue, Tracy actually says "Is there's someone else in that room" - and to that Quentin actually replies"'Is there someone else in that room'...You make me sick! I can't stand the sight of you anymore! Now get out!", with the second and third quotes combined.
And when it comes to what's different with the descriptions and directions, the editing is a bit different than indicated - but before we get into that I have to say that I love the smile Quentin displays before he mimics Tracy's question -
- and before he "blows" - and when it comes to his angry outburst, as can be seen in today's second capture, the shot actually features Tracy at first -
- and that lasts as long as Quentin is angrily declaring "You make me sick!" - and then the shot shifts to Quentin -
- as he declares "I can't stand the sight of you anymore!" - and contrary to what the third quote indicates, Quentin is still on screen -
- as he orders "Now, get out!" - and it's after that that the shot returns again -
- to one of Tracy.
CUT TO: EXT. COLLINWOOD MANOR - NIGHT Even at this distance, we can hear the anguished exclamations of -- BARNABAS (PRE-LAP) "Angel Bay!" |
INT. COLLINWOOD MANOR (DRAWING ROOM) - NIGHT Elizabeth is alone with Barnabas, trying to sooth his melodramatic anguish, despite her own shock at the revelation of Angelique's true identity. BARNABAS The very audacity of the name summons vomit into the recesses of my mouth!. For it has as its proprietor the devil herself! ELIZABETH I always thought there was something a little off about Angie. BARNABAS Oh, if my vampire eyes were capable of tears, I would flood the earth with my weeping! ELIZABETH Barnabas, you've done more for this family in ten days than I have in ten years. BARNABAS Angelique means to destroy us, Elizabeth. She hates me. ELIZABETH "Hate?" No, if she merely hated you, she would've killed you. A curse takes devotion. BARNABAS Fate sees fit to punish me forever! Has the infernal calculus of grief any limit? Any end? ELIZABETH Barnabas... BARNABAS What our ancestors did to incur such wrath I know not, but why must I bear the rotten fruit of our family's cursed tree? He throws himself onto the organ; buries his head in his hands. |
BARNABAS (CONT'D) My parents, taken. My true love, taken. ELIZABETH And what did you do? BARNABAS (a beat, then) I tried to kill myself by jumping off a cliff. ELIZABETH You fought, Barnabas. When your parents were killed, you fought on! Barnabas raises his head. BARNABAS I did, didn't I. ELIZABETH You tried to keep the family business afloat! Tried to find the source of our curse and extinguish it forever! A raised head becomes a full-on raised body. BARNABAS My God...you're right. I fought for the survival of our name. ELIZABETH You fought because it's in your blood! |
And today I have a behind the scenes candid still to share that's associated with Scene 149:
(Click here for a 1400X1067 version)
David Selby and Kate Jackson are in a decidedly different mood than their characters are in the scene...
Continuing with Scene 149:
He does not answer.
And that's when Wednesday's quote -
Page 70/Scene 149 - Tracy: 'Quentin, what's happened to you? What's wrong? There's...there's someone in that room with you, isn't there?'
(Along with the graphic for anyone who might have missed it.)
- comes up, followed by today's quote -Page 70/Scene 149 - Quentin: 'Tracy, why don't you go back to bed.'
- coming up.
And when it comes to what's different with the dialogue, Tracy actually says "Quentin, what's happened to you? ... What's wrong? ... There's someone else in that room, isn't there?" - and Quentin drops the "Tracy" in his quote, and it's chilling how emotionlessly he delivers it.
And when it comes to what's different with the descriptions and directions, what's scripted is exactly how that plays out, but there are some things that aren't scripted. For instance, the camera slowly trucks in on Tracy as she delivers her lines - and she reaches out to Quentin before -
- she asks him what's wrong - and she looks up into the tower room before she states that someone else-
- is in there. (Though we still have mo idea if Tracy can see a rumpled cot. To me things play as if she can tell intuitively that someone is in the tower besides Quentin.)
