This starts with a Julia VO, I have to say.   Naomi and Josette-- try being concerned that Jeremiah's apparently alive, why don't you?   People did get accidentally buried alive back then.   As they ran off, "I Want To Hold Your Hand" started in my head....   Bet that scene wasn't shot again for this ep....

Louis covers mistakes so well that it ends up not even mattering that he made a mistake at all, it just adds to realism, because real people do mis-speak.   Sherry does not make you hallucinate.

Perfect excuse came up for Ang telling Josette about the engagement, her not going back to Martinique, but then I'm sure her radar was peeled for any conversational opportunity.

Here's a real job satisfaction moment, when Ang gets to watch Josette's face.  The happiest we ever see her probably.

That first scene is pretty funny, MT!

In the last scene, we can see that JB is actually holding a script but still does her best to act as if she is off book.

Joshua asks irritably, Where are you going to put that-- that-- I never know what to call her! (If this was a blown line, Louis Edmonds makes a remarkable recovery!)

Angelique enjoys her moment of triumph over Josette. I'm sure poor Josette was hoping that somehow, somehow, she and Barnabas could get back together. But not now. We never again see that "lucky" flower that Angelique pinned on her wedding dress.

Forgot yet another great LE-JB moment: In the foyer of the New House, where Joshua is berating her for organizing the move so poorly. You gave me only eighteen hours’ notice, she reminds him. The staunchly republican Joshua asks, What will André think? Where are you going to put that-- that-- I never know what to call her! (If this was a blown line, Louis Edmonds makes a remarkable recovery!) I was going to give her Je-- Naomi stops herself just in time and says instead, The countess will have the room at the top of the stairs. Just then the countess herself bustles in with Angelique in tow. She enthuses to Naomi, I must compliment you on the wonderful organization of the move--and you, Monsieur Collins, on your luck in having such a wife. Joshua has the grace to bow his thanks--and really, he doesn't have a choice, does he.

Given the way Jeremiah appears and disappears so fast, it must have been his ghost coming out of the grave, not his body.

This episode was very poorly done on every level, IMO. Very disappointing after yesterday's ep. But everyday can't be a holiday.

I only heard Josette scream at the beginning. It would seem that both ladies should scream. Later Naomi sees Jeremiah with the weird eye looking at her. Then noises come from Jeremiah's locked tower room.
