It's odd to hear the VO say Barnabas might be "destroyed", which is not something you really say about a living human being. Jail time, maybe an execution I guess... if Maggie convinces the sheriff. Maggie nearly joins the ranks of Collinsport nightie ramblers, only she's doing it in her robe.
Very good scene, where Joe and Maggie reunite, and both find they're vampire victims... Maggie is then inspired with the kind of basic life-protecting sense you just don't see in horror stories and says, let's just get in the damn car and GO. NOW. She knew they only had that one moment, and if they missed it, that would be it, and it was. Cut to Barnabas, showing us that the knock at Joe's door couldn't have been him. Then who...?
It looked as if Maggie and Joe might have concocted some clever revenge plan against Barnabas, inviting him to come see her to carry it out, showing a great sense of theater on her part. But no, Blair has wiped her memory, and also had to show Barnabas that he had, hence the invitation. Smart of Barnabas to figure it out that fast... it's a wild thought, but who else might have the power and motive?
End of Maggie problem.
