I did not like Barrett's OV-O.
I like smart Barnabas. Saves so much time & nonsense, his figuring Nicholas is behind Angelique's removal from the Old House drawing room. I really enjoyed the entire Julia & Barnabas segment. Barn's hopefulness, Julia's caution and their collaborative effort to reach some kind of conclusion was natural and easy. It gave me a sense of comfort.
Carolyn: "I burned the toast this morning." Stupid Carolyn is back, burnt toast notwithstanding. And she looks lovely in a blue skirt and pink blouse - really lovely. Adam tells Car about Nick & Cass and she insists it was a dream. And then gives Nick the same notion to use an an excuse. No Carolyn's not complex, she just stupid when the writers need her to be.
Nicholas creates a 'real' monster and Carolyn suffers for it. It's debatable whether Nicholas thinks Adam will attack Carolyn.
Roger finds Nicholas a Collins property. I thought Nick's place was Lang's old place or Seaview. It's not Seaview right?
Love the scene between Adam & Carolyn - nicely acted/written - of course I couldn't stomach the molestation. I really wish Carolyn would slap the living shit out of him. Barrett is off the charts acting wise. And Rodan is still very very good, IMO. They have excellent timing as a duo.
Well, with Angelique's resting place being at Nick's new place, a first time viewer really should expect her return sooner rather than later.
