If you don't want to know the circumstances surrounding Thursday's entry in this slideshow, then don't read any further...
[spoiler]Thursday's quote:
Ep #821 (1897) - King Johnny - 'You finally decided that holding out on your people was a little too dangerous. You MUST have placed it there while I was upstairs, didn't you?'
From "Robservations 2/21/03 - #821-822 - Petofi Threatens; Magda Escapes"
821
[/spoiler]
Once again the Robservations doesn't summarize the teaser. It's a reworking of the ending to Ep #820. So, here's the pertinent part of the summary from that:
From " Robservations #819-820"
Magda wrings her hands nervously, walking around the mess of the Old House drawing room. She rights the candles in the stand. Johnny returns, empty-handed, and says, I see nothing but a lying, thieving gypsy. She begs him. He reminds her, call me "King Johnny." I don't have the hand and don't know who does, she says, and I can't tell you who does.You are Magda, who can say anything you want to say, he says--maybe you need some help in remembering, he suggests--I will give you that help. He hits her across the face, first with the front of his hand, then the back of it. How about that?--do you remember the name? asks Johnny. He draws out the knife--or do you need more help? Magda spots something under an overturned chair--the box containing the hand! King Johnny takes the box and says, you finally realized going against your people was a little too dangerous--you were clever, as always, you slipped it there while I was upstairs. I swear I didn't, says Magda, because I don't have it--the box must be empty!
However, again the reworking is an abbreviated version of what was before. For example, when it comes to what he actually says in Ep #820, which is "You finally realized that going against your people was a little too dangerous--but I swear you're clever, as always, Magda--you slipped it there while I was upstairs, didn't you?" as can be seen with what's quoted from Ep #821, he doesn't repeat saying, "but I swear you're clever, as always, Magda" - and rather than saying, "you slipped it there while I was upstairs, didn't you?" he says, "You MUST have placed it there while I was upstairs, didn't you?" and that qualifies it as a MUST quote...
