This ep. is full of great scenes and concludes with one of the greatest lines in the entire series. Abigail's scream is pretty good, too.
I must also single out another all-time favorite and absolutely delightful scene, when Ben gravely advises Daniel (welcome!) on what to take with him if he's running away. Daniel promises to make a list and show it to Ben. As man to man, they solemnly shake hands on the agreement, and David goes back to Collinwood much happier than when he left it. [spoiler][A long time from now, in 1840, we will see that although much else has changed, Daniel’s gratitude is none the less.][/spoiler]
Very, very late in the day, Abigail gets to the Old House just as Ben is also arriving. Ben does his best to dissuade her from going in, even offering to get whatever she wants from inside the house, but Abigail doesn’t trust the man she caught sneaking into her bedroom. She tells him, I’m expecting Reverend Trask this evening. I want you to go back to Collinwood and tell Reverend Trask to meet me here at the Old House. Ben still hesitates, then makes up his mind. He asks her, And if anything happens to you here--? Abigail replies stoutly, It will be my responsibility. Now go and do as you're told! Fearlessly she marches in. Ben lingers just long enough to remark to us, Aye! It will be your responsibility! And I hope ye get what's comin' to ye!
