If you don't want to know the circumstances surrounding Sunday's entry in this slideshow, then don't read any further...
[spoiler]Sunday's quote:
Ep #549 (1968) - Adam - 'I love you! You MUST love me!'
From "Robservations 7/3/02 - #548/549 - Adam Proclaims His Lust"
Poor Adam - and Nicholas' advice certainly isn't helping him. No one responds well after you violently grab them, no matter what you say to them...
But so far as the quote goes, this time Robservations gets it almost exactly right.
[spoiler]Sunday's quote:
Ep #549 (1968) - Adam - 'I love you! You MUST love me!'
From "Robservations 7/3/02 - #548/549 - Adam Proclaims His Lust"
Adam practices what Nicholas told him-"Take what I want! Grab it! You are a man, men fall in love, Nicholas says so," he tells his reflection. "Take what you want! YES! YES! Carolyn! Carolyn, Carolyn, Carolyn!" (uh oh, this isn't good!) He unlocks his door and creeps out. Carolyn follows him back to his room, clearly angry. What is this about? she demands, what are you doing out of your room? Belligerent, he orders her not to speak to him that way. Anyone could have seen you, she reminds him. I shouldn't have to hide, he tells her--"I am a man!" Carolyn says she isn't arguing that, but there are reasons for him being there. She tells him she knows it can't be pleasant. When you come, it is, he says, calming down. I can't spend all my time here, she tells him, knowing he doesn't understand--my mother is ill. You're pretty, he tells her. I'm upset, she explains--I won't be able to keep you here any longer. He again tells her how pretty she is. I heard that, says Carolyn--but there are more important things to discuss. Adam disagrees. What's wrong? She asks, what happened?--are you bored and tired? I'm tired of being alone, he replies. She offers books, a radio--but someone might hear it. She offers to call Stokes to come see him. Adam refuses--Stokes teaches me to be polite, complains Adam, and no one gets what they want being polite! I don't have time for this, says Carolyn--Vicki is waiting to go into town with me. Adam locks the door. "Stay here," he orders--"Listen to me!" She orders him to unlock the door, but he refuses. You agreed to be locked in here, and understood the conditions by which you could stay here, she reminds him sharply--do you want to leave? No, he says. I'll call Stokes and tell him we must make other arrangements, insists Carolyn. I want to stay here, protests Adam, caressing her face. "I love you," he says. "No," she says. She flings his hands off her and backs away. I love you--and you must love me! He cries. You don't know what you're saying, she says--you don't understand about love. He grabs her into his arms. She orders him to let her go. He presses kisses on her hair, her face, telling her, "You do not love me--you will." "Adam, please," she begs, struggling in his grasp--"It's not possible." "Why?" he demands, still kissing her. You're hurting me! She screams--let me go![/spoiler]
