Burke:  Sam, it’s been closed for 10 minutes already.

Bannister Nob (thinking):  Not again!  I’m being tired of being kissed for luck.

I’m glad your lengthy well thought out post has gotten quite a bit of attention. 

I was a bit stumped trying to figure out my thoughts on it. 
I read through the Dream Curse with Robservations, so I didn’t see it acted.  I found curse interesting though because I hadn’t heard of things like that before (or maybe not often ).  It seemed pretty original.  Wonder if it inspired something related to Fredy Kruger (I vaguely remember something about him and dreams from tv ads).

I think I’m coming up on the playroom storyline stuff soon, but I think I remember seeing parts and / or reading summaries.  It’s pretty lackluster for sure and thinking on it reminded me of the Quentin possession of David so it’s less original. 

I can’t really disagree with your conclusion.

Honestly the part I didn’t care about the most in the Cassandra storyline was Elisabeth’s death thing.  The conclusion sounded pretty good even though the spell shouldn’t have still been active (I think) but it was so dragged out that I’m sure watching it would be just as frustrating.
