So far/so good -- 'numbers' and 'viewing' wise. It's still more 'crime solving' than 'soap opera'.

How could it say I had already posted it, when clearly it wasn't there?
dom-- I tend to forget that Barnabas takes the syringe from Julia and does it himself, too.
The situation is so messy that as much as I want to let Julia totally off the hook, I can't. She prepared the injection. She met Barnabas there, not telling anyone else, not getting help. She kept silent afterwards. The consequences would have been extreme for Julia if she'd gone to the police (probably involving Barnabas killing her that night), but when you're about to help to kill your old friend, you do something. She was a co-conspirator.
I don't think we're meant to feel sorry for Barnabas and his pain. I think his mentioning it shows us the big reason that Julia is in love with him and why she's trying to cure him: She somehow sees the humanity that is hidden far, far beneath his vampirism.
This is the last appearance of both Sam Evans and Sheriff Patterson for quite a while, though David Ford will return shortly in 1795.
Anyone ever notice they removed a majority of the male characters at this point? Even Joe & Roger will not appear as often.
