Vicki is bareheaded when she leaves Collinwood. She's wearing a scarf over her hair in the (recycled) film footage of her walking across the veranda and down the stairs. When she arrives at the Old House and calls to David, she is bareheaded once more and continues to be when she returns to the Great House.

Elizabeth is wearing her famous suit jacket over her shoulders in this episode. I think this is the first time she mentions the burden of not leaving the house, though not the reason.

MT, we will miss you!

Poor MT--don't worry, no offense taken! It's awful, isn't it, when one has to take meds that don't agree with one!

Lydia, I like your theory about the location of secret panels. Was it maybe Isaac who was the first Collins to emigrate? Did he prosper immediately and build the Old House himself, I wonder? Or did he have to live in some primitive log cabin with mud between the logs or maybe something even rougher? How did he treat the local native Americans? Did they have good relations through trade, or did they fight? It seems the only remaining trace of them is that someone we will meet a long time from now lives at 13 Arrowhead Road

That doesn't really anwer your question but it's always fun to speculate. I really should be working....

Finally, after 114 episodes, Burke and Vicki clinch.

I believe this is one of the last times we will see the kitchen.

Louis Edmonds seems to be having fun in this ep. Roger is at his snippy best, even referring to Mr. Garner Senior as merely "Garner" as if he were the butler or something.

Not only all of the action, but the producers got a THIRD usage of the footage of Matthew approaching the Old House, lantern in hand! 

  , MT!

The scene with Elizabeth and Matthew was terrific. In full Mistress of Collinwood mode, she uses nothing but sheer force of personality to talk him out of killing Vicki. But his suspicions are too much for him, and it was a real shock to see him reach for Elizabeth's throat.

Probably less than an hour later, back at Collinwood, Elizabeth looks ready for battle as she declares she's not afraid of Burke Devlin.

Frank takes Vicki to dinner, then invites her for a no doubt chaste weekend in Bangor.

I liked Julia's electric blue dress, and her pins.

Of course, honorable mention has to go to the serpent brooch that Elizabeth wears during the Leviathan episodes.

I loved NB's Carolyn Stoddard Loomis outfits during 1970 PT.

Some of Naomi Collins's gowns were absolutely stunning, like the pearl-gray silk one with the sort of persimmon-colored velvet overdress thing.

Your guess is as good as mine, Janet--maybe the cottage is actually pretty close to the Old House, closer than Collinwood at least.

If Elizabeth is so worried about all these "things" happening to Vicki, why did she send her out to look for David in the first place?

David speculates optimistically that maybe the ghosts got Miss Winters.

When Matthew has Vicki trapped at the cottage, she pretends to be sick, although if it was me, I wouldn't have to pretend. Matthew very kindly offers to get her-- whiskey. And Elizabeth already gave her a sedative.

Vicki tells Frank that she's been all alone in the house. Is Elizabeth out walking the grounds? But then she comes downstairs, so maybe she was looking for David? WTF?

Sam gets dressed up for his grilling at the police station--he's wearing a (corduroy) jacket and a skinny tie.

Vicki and Frank are very cute together!
