being a stripper at Vinny's Boom Boom  Room."

I've never noticed before but this cover foto looks like it was taken during my fave Barn photo shoot at the Spratt Mansion!

Carolyn meets Vicki. I'm trying to decide if Carolyn is immature or bi-polar? Cute dialogue between the two. It's odd to me that Carolyn's never heard of Burke Devlin. It wouldn't be odd to learn that she'd been sheltered from the goings-on regarding the accident and trial. But unless it all happened over summer vacation surely school would have been abuzz with the gossip or at least whispers and finger pointing. Maggie certainly was aware it.
We meet Bill Malloy. I've never cared for this character. Good actor though. Joe gets to formally meet Burke and Burke sets his plan to destroy the Collins clan into action. I'd like to know who it was that called Burke to warn him that Malloy was on his way. I'm wondering if I'm watching edited episodes. Joe is coming across as a decent guy so far.
There's a word for people like Roger Collins but I can't seem to come up with it. He's certainly unlikable and untrustworthy. And I can't decide if Maggie doesn't like him or if she is just suspicious of him. I don't know if it's the acting or if the writing is to blame. Maybe it's me.
As stated above we now know Maggie's father figures into this mess between Burke and the Collins'. And he doesn't seem to fit into the good side of things.
I wonder at this point if we are supposed to wonder if it's a ghost or know that it's David. Carolyn makes it clear it's David at episode's end.

Excellent comments above...my thoughts exactly. Lol, MB, I smiled when Liz mentioned and then brought in tea. I was eager to mention that tea had been established as the house beverage in this episode though we see Roger's drink of choice is on the opposite end of the spectrum.
We meet Carolyn and Joe. Carolyn, unlikable as first soon earns our sympathy, poor little rich girl. Joe gets our sympathy from the get-go. The boy next door and the fire eater. The writing's on the wall there. Burke laughingly gets established as a real tough guy who needs but one glance to gain control over a bar fight. With powers like that and the money to back them up there's little doubt he'll be able to take down the mighty Collins family.
Collinwood has 40 rooms and no help to speak of. I hope Vicki likes housework. Vicki gets Liz's old room. I guess they don't make mattresses like they used to. It appears the drawing room looks out over the sea. I liked how they used Vicki looking out the window to segue into the opening title. Seeing Vicki on Widows Hill from below with Roger approaching is awesome. Vicki meets Roger. Great scene. Poor Liz obviously has her own demons.
 

I can't get over how much I still love these beginning episodes. It's still as exciting as seeing them for the first time. Carolyn is introducing herself to Vicki and quite comically. LOVING it!!

Oh, wow, I just found the pre-Barns on IMDb! Now I'm as happy as a pig in shit! I'm excited about catching up with the watching project.
