If you don't want to know the circumstances surrounding today's entry in this slideshow, then don't read any further...
[spoiler]Today's quote:
DS 1991 Ep #5 (-1966: Ep #5) - Julia - 'Then you MUST tell me something and it MUST be the truth. Barnabas' life depends upon it.'
From
SHADOWS IN THE '90s: The Dark Shadows Concordance 1991 - PLOT SUMMARIES - EPISODE FIVE:
OUTSIDE THE OLD HOUSE: Julia learns from Willie that Barnabas is out for a walk. She worries too much sun could be dangerous for him. Willie comments he keeps telling him that, but Barnabas can't get enough of the sun. He feels the same way about his Auntie's blueberry hotcakes. Julia slowly, "You know how much I care about Barnabas, don't you?" Willie, "Sure. You're the only one who's really helped him out." She questions him on Barnabas seeing Victoria - "his life may depend" on Willie's answers. "I want to know about their relationship." Willie is confused - "Does Barnabas like her and stuff like that?" He admits he's worried - he knows he shouldn't say this, then takes her inside the house.

And the summary only references the end of Julia's quote, and doesn't even reference the "MUST" at all - shameful!
And similar to what I did back in April, I used a screen capture that's the same dimensions as the ones from the original series. In this case one from the from the TGG Direct DVD release -
- because even though that release also doesn't have the correct color timing like the VHS release does -
- also like the VHS release, it has the correct aspect ratio, plus it even tends to show a bit more of the frame (though interestingly not when it comes to the right side, where the VHS actually shows more) and it's clearer than the VHS.
And even though the MGM DVD release, like the TGG Direct release, is clearer than the VHS, frustratingly, the aspect ratio is cropped from 4X3 to 16X9 -
And Ep #5 now joins Eps #1, #124, #198, #478, #659 and #904 as ones without any "must" lines - and that's just the first one for this month.
