And now Diabolos and Nicholas! You're hitting all the greats this week!
Nicholas begs for a second chance, but the Master tells him he doesn't give second chances, nor sympathize with those who do. No, Nicholas was given an opportunity, but because of a woman allowed it all to slip away.Nick implores his boss for a little more time, he can prove himself. That's what every condemned man needs and never gets, sneers Diabolos, just a little more time. Nick says everything can be salvaged, but the Master reminds him that Eve is dead because of your negligence--and you can't use supernatural powers to bring her back to life. No, protests Nick, the experiment will be performed again and Eve will be reborn. Diabolos gives him 48 hours to accomplish what he must. Nick protests it isn't enough time. That's all you're getting, says Diabolos--you are free to go for as long as it takes for the experiment to be completed, then you will return here. But if I succeed? asks Nicholas. You haven't succeeded yet, Diabolos reminds him, but, if Eve is restored to life, we shall see. I don't want to return here, says Nicholas. No one ever does, intones the Master. If I give you what you want, I deserve more, insists Nicholas--to remain on earth, without my powers. How will you survive? wonders Diabolos. Perhaps I wouldn't, says Nicholas quietly--it's because I want Maggie with me, admits Nicholas--I love her very much. The Master pronounces Nicholas hopelessly lost--no wonder he made such a mess of things--when the experiment is over, you must return to hell. I won't be allowed to be with her? Asks Nicholas. I didn't say that, says the Master--your story has touched me--I mean that you can be with her. Nicholas is excited. Then the Master drops the other shoe, "But only here." "But that would mean she would have to die," protests Nicholas. Yes, says the Master--arrange it--there is something else that must be done before she can be accepted here--she must be sacrificed on the black altar. No, protests Nicholas. It's the only way you can be with Maggie, says the Master--the black mass must be performed![/spoiler]
It's Count Petofi! So much love!
And look at the lighting in that shot. Gorgeous! Like a Mario Bava film!
Aristede finishes locking Barnabas in his coffin. Petofi exults that they can give Barnabas more attention at the mill than they could in the west wing of Collinwood. Barnabas will be surprised to find himself here when he wakes, says Aristede. I don't think so, says Petofi, putting his right hand on the coffin; Barnabas and I have been at war for sometime, this is one more battle in this war--the last one--it will go on until Barnabas gives me what I want. It will be difficult to get the vampire to give up his mission in this time, says Aristede. Difficult, admits Petofi, but he assures him, I shall do it--military strategy, doing what it takes to win any crucial battle--increase the pressure and increase the enemy's discomfort until he can stand it no longer. Petofi balls up his fist--until he has no choice but to surrender. Aristede asks, how will you increase the pressure? Thus far, says Petofi, only those whom Barnabas cares for in this century have suffered--now I shall attack from the other side, hit him from both directions and catch him in pinchers from which he can't escape until he gives me what I want. Now I will start working on those Barnabas loves in 1969. Aristede points out, you cannot see that time; how will you know who those people are? Barnabas mentioned one name with whom I can begin, says Petofi, and realize he must return to his own time, and take me along--David Collins, of course. Petofi grins in triumph.[/spoiler]
if, as in the case of Portia Fitzsimmons, she has any "MUST" quotes at all...
Cottage - Maggie is annoyed--she can't find her keys--maybe Sam left with both sets? Joe says they can stay home, but she wants to find them. Joe suggests she check her purse, he didn't see her do so. She opens her purse--the keys are there! She also finds the diamond and emerald earrings. Josette's music begins to play. Joe swears he didn't give her the earrings; he couldn't have afforded them. Sam couldn't, either--how did they get into her purse? Joe suggests she ask Sam, and if he didn't give them to her, turn them over to the police--she'll get them back if no one claims them. Maggie admires them in the light and says the woman who wore them must be beautiful. All you need is money, remarks Joe, but Maggie says she thinks of someone lovely, elegant and--sad owned them. Joe says she has sentiment and imagination, but she says they remind her of something she's forgotten. Joe tells her to put them safely away so they can go out, but Maggie feels compelled to put them on. Josette's music plays, and she admires the beautiful, thoughtful gift. Joe wishes they were from him, and she says only a man who had gazed into her eyes with deepest love would know they were meant for her--in a very Josette-like voice. Joe eyes her uncomfortably, she's getting carried away. She thinks he looks worried--why? He's surprised--he didn't think she was the diamonds and emeralds type. Laughing, she assures him she loves a good book or a box of candy as a gift any day of the week. She hugs him and says the earrings are different. He agrees they look special. She's never felt this way about jewelry--she feels drawn to them. He agrees they're beautiful, any woman would love them.It's more than that, she says dreamily, and he gets kind of angry and tells her to put them away until their owner can be found. She takes them off and says he must admit they're really exquisite--there's nothing like them in the world.[/spoiler]
