I had to stifle a laugh when Julia told David that they always told each other the truth. Since when?
As if she wasn't doing enough research in Collinwood, Julia has also gone poking around in Sebastian's background. Apparently, nothing negative turned up. But it is still unclear why Sebastian has settled in Maine. Was this his choice? Roxanne's? Or is there more to it?
To his credit, Sebastian does seem humbled and somewhat moved when David asks for help. But not moved enough to actually do anything.
Daphne and Gerard seem to have a relationship close to what is hinted at in Turn of the Screw. It's far more sinister than the relationship we saw between Quentin and Beth but seems more derived from the Quint/Miss Jessel relationship in TOTS.
David Selby is always watchable but this version of Quentin is uncharacteristically weak. The story line having him become bewitched by and become subservient to Daphne would have worked a lot better with Roger.
