I found it interesting that Adam showed such animosity towards Barnabas. When Trask walled Barnabas up, Adam felt Barnabas's physical pain. At that point, despite the caning Barnabas had given him, Adam's gut reaction seemed to be to want to help Barnabas. Adam hasn't seen Barnabas since then. If the same thing happened now, how would Adam feel?
I was wondering, as Adam listened to Barnabas and Julia talking, if it might occur to Adam that he's not the most important being in the world.
When Roger and Barnabas were waiting in the foyer for Julia to emerge from Elizabeth's room, I thought to myself: "This episode is what enabled Julia to stay at Collinwood for as long as she wanted."
It is regrettable that Stokes had no fondness for the letter L. Perhaps a woman whose name began with that initial - Lydia, for example - turned him down once upon a time, and doomed him to life as a lonely bachelor.
