Tony discusses with Stokes the events that transpired in the basement of the Old House; they also talk over their strategy for destroying Cassandra (Angelique), which Tony believes impossible.
Continuing Scene 119 with today's quote -Page 60/Scene 119 - Laura: 'Gabriel -- if we must, we'll do it without you.'
- coming up.
And when it comes to any differences in the dialogue, there aren't any because today's quote is delivered exactly as scripted.
And when it comes to any differences in the directions and the descriptions, there aren't any of either in the script for this section. There also aren't any notes in DC's script concerning today's quote. But I do have to say that I just love how Diana Millay gives a tilt to her head just as she tells Gabriel that they'll do it without him:
And the interesting thing about today's quote is that it reveals just how determined Laura is to side with Strack and to seal Angelique's fate even if Gabriel isn't on board. Would it be such a hard thing to then imagine that Laura might not coerce or pay the men to give evidence against Angelique? And Scene 67A (the piano scene) would certainly seem to show that Laura is disgusted by Charles and Angelique's affair and she holds Angelique responsible. Though, as I said yesterday, there's no indisputable evidence in the script that Laura or anyone else actually conspired against Angelique and falsely accused her of witchcraft (although Scene 67A clearly shows that Laura really does believe Angelique is a witch and that she's bewitched Charles). But subtleties could be construed...
Ben assures Barnabas grimly that Angelique can make anything happen. Why did she do all this, demands Barnabas. Because she loves you, says Ben. Love? explodes Barnabas--she ruined my family!--no, she did this out of hate, and I'll teach her the meaning of hate! Be very careful, warns Ben, but Barnabas seems far less concerned for his own safety than finding a way to kill Angelique--revenge isn't sweet for Barnabas, but a necessity. Ben offers to do it himself, hide in the woods with a gun and shoot her, but Barn insists he must do it himself--Angelique took his reason for living away, and it's payback time!
