I felt really bad for Millicent in this episode. It's no wonder she wants nothing to do with Nathan.

Well, I'll say this much for Barnabas, he gave Josette every opportunity to back out of his dark world.

I thought Josette and Natalie were awfully familiar with Joshua, calling him by his first name, rather than Mr. Collins. I suppose that must come from spending so much time living with the Collins family, and for Josette being part of the family, at least by marriage. Still, it sounded strange to me, to hear him referred to so casually.

i always think it's strange that viewers who come to the show during one of the time travel periods becomes familiar with those characters first and then have to be "introduced" to the present time characters who are in effect "new" to them even though those characters had been with the show first.

That is exactly how I was introduced to the series, with the 1795 characters first, so it was quite difficult to become accustomed to the present-day characters.

Something needs to be said about Suki's hat, but I got nothin'....

What's wrong with suki's hat?

Why did ben have to mention to Barnabas that Josette believed Barnabas would return to her? That only weakened Barnabas's resolve never to go near her.

What a pity Barnabas wasn't able to witness Sarah's funeral. I realize he saw her die, but funerals provide a measure of closure when someone dies, and barnabas wasn't able to attend Sarah's or Josette's funerals, or any of his family members after he was cursed. Perhaps that's why he lives so much in the past. It's much easier to keep denying the facts when you haven't truly accepted them. I just think things might have been easier for him had he been able to have a bit of closure to all these deaths. Sorry if this doesn't make much sense. 

It's amazing how events can change a person. In the beginning when Abigail was making such a fuss about the presence of a witch, Joshua didn't believe in such nonsense. Now he's thoroughly convinced of their existence, and that it's Vicki.

I guess it's a good thing Ruby Tate didn't know how to swim, or Barnabas would be in a heap of trouble.

I wonder why Joshua didn't hire another governess for Sarah, or at least have one of the servants keep watch over her.

How do you explain to your little sister that you got turned in to a vampire? It's no wonder Sarah was afraid of barnabas, most adults would be as well.

I loved that scene with Barnabas kneeling at Jeremiah's grave. Excellent!

If the book was in Vicki's room to begin with, then Josette found it and took it with her, how did Vicki know where to find it? I suppose she deduced that Josette would keep it with her, and the first logical place to look would be her room.

When Trask wants to assure himself that Vicki is still in her cell, and Peter says they don't usually allow visitors so late at night, then Trask hotly tells him he doesn't want to visit her. That struck me as funny. Just his tone when he says it is quite amusing.

one of the problems is that David went down this road before and never even references it to either Hallie or himself. I know this is the writers fault but I think it hurts the concept here. Iit would have been more inteersting to have seen David struggling with these forces which he really should be terriified by since his last encounter with Quentin.

Welcome, Buzz! 

As far as David mentioning Quentin, Spoiler: since Barnabas went to 1897 and changed Quentin's history, he didn't die, therefore he couldn't be a ghost, and David and Amy would never have experienced a haunting from him. So those events in David's world never occurred. Only we the viewers remember it.
