Sam's payoff was 15,000 and he blew it all.  He does seem like one of those people who spend like crazy and then wonder where it all went.
Joe gives Maggie a goodbye kiss as 2:15 in the morning. I grew up in a town not unlike Collinsport and the only people up at that time were the Sam Evanses. 

I thought the same thing Lydia about Bill Malloy.  I can't see him singing that song, but I'm sure its a public domain song so no money to pay out in royalties.  Really Bill seemed so uptight all the time and to be in love with Elizabeth for all those years when there was no chance as Ned was apparently ahead of the game there and he got the heave ho also. 
Vickie crazily cries to the high barred window to let her out.  Would there really be someone out on the roof in a strorm? 
It seems like the seaweed that Vickie sees at the end to confirm that she isn't dreaming of the ghost is already in place on the floor.

They should have kept the black number from episode one. I remember Peggy Lee  we always thought she was the real life inspiration for one of the muppets.

This seems to be a kinescope episode.  There was no voice on the VTR opening.  I keep wondering how they managed to break off the corner of the board and then tape it back togerther with electrical tape. 
If roger were smart he'd leave the pen somewhere near his office where his secretary would find it and then give it back to Burke.  He's still have to worry that Vickie might see Burke with it, but at least he'd have Burke and Carolyn off his back about the pen.
We learn that the Collins cannery only deals in sardines.  I guess that's symbolic of how they have fallen from the days of Jeremiah. 
I can see how Alexandra would be frustrated with Vickie's stupidity.  Going in the west wing alone with a known attempted murderer, who has written death on your mirror seems foolish.
I can see Elizabeth as the type of person who would walk the grounds in a storm or be out checking something with Matthew.  David may also be lying that they are alone in the house.

I'm wondering if is her daughter's name is Ima.
Matthew exits the doors of the real Seaview.  In town another confrontation with Burke over Collinwood and threatens to burn it before Burke would live there.
Mrs Johnson would do the cooking and general cleaning if she is hired.  Elizabeth is concerned about the village learning the goings on at Collinwood.  Mrs. Johnson assures her she is not a gossip and respects privacy.  Hmm!  wonder how many people she told about the bad mayonnaise at the diner?  Elizabeth needs to think more on the situation.

While Elizabeth is considering more live in help to populate Collinwood, perhaps a live in psychiatrist for David would be in order.  Burke manipulates the young boy as easily as he does his cousin. 

Elizabeth says that she'd find Burke attractive if he were not out to get them.  I wish the writers would go in that direction and how interesting it would be if he turned out to be Vickie's father.   Then Elizabeth reveals to her daughter that life with Paul was nothing.  My first reaction would be to say, "Then Mother, why did you lock yourself up in Collinwood for eighteen years?"
