Post by: Mysterious Benefactor on October 20, 2010, 12:00:12 AM: This is, of course, one of, if not THE most important ep ever on the original DS! Well, at least for one particular member of the forum. [wink2] And we all know why:

And no doubt those moments are why the Sci-Fi Channel ran the ep twice back in '03:

How bizarre!-- SciFi repeated an episode

Post by: Lydia on October 20, 2010, 06:54:47 AM: David's grown up into a good kid. He knows he could depart his life at any instant, and he doesn't want to leave bad feelings behind.

Meanwhile we're introduced to a weird relationship between Gerard and Daphne, and we end with Gerard apparently planning to strangle Quentin. Gerard was killing people with heart attacks - or something - in 1995, but either he hasn't yet developed that capability, or else he's just having fun with Quentin.

Julia knows something is wrong, but she doesn't know just how much is wrong. It's all very insidious.

Post by: MagnusTrask on October 26, 2010, 10:06:53 AM: David's never seen nor heard of Gerard before this? Where was Gerard all this time? Ghost business in Bangor? As for the garrotting, that might be meant as poetic (in?)justice, since Quentin favored that way of solving problems for awhile.

J: "David, we've always told each other the truth." ??? By the way, for no apparent reason, my VCR is back from the dead.

Congratulations on your VCR's miraculous recovery, Magnus!

Thanks, Lydia! It kept straining against a tape blockage, and I guess it gradually freed itself, since I just found the tape sticking out of the machine one day. My VCR is truly a "survivor".

By the way MB, I have no clue what's special about this episode or that Q capture, nor to whom these are special. You don't have to explain or anything; I just decided I should be counted as one of the ignorant, I guess. I'm full of BC powder that makes my nervous system go indescribably, horribly haywire, even as it relieves pain, so I'm saying strange things this morning, as well as saying them strangely.

That scene is special to *me*. Very, very special. [hall2_grin]

Post by: Lydia on October 28, 2010, 07:45:42 AM: I've been assuming that the reason this episode is special is the same reason that another episode is special.

Got it! That didn't register as a link in my head at first for whatever reason, more like an unsuccessful quote with no text maybe...

Cute Midnite! :)

Damn David was a real ass to Julia. Very subtle David, very subtle! Perhaps though Julia just thinks it's growing pains and David is sick and tired of the "grownups" walking into his room at anytime. At that age it would have made me mad too.

“Oh Quentin—how alone Barnabas and I would feel without you!” Julia says with Grayson flashing a brilliant smile in Quentin's direction. As I haves stated before, I adore the chemistry between Grayson and David. It's evident that there is a lot of love between the two in real life.

“You’re our leading night person…” Julia. I can identify with Quentin. I am such a night owl, or vampire if you will. I have to fight it but it's in my blood from my Father's side. They are all night owls. Sometimes it seems like a curse…..
