At age 14, I was rooting for Barnabas and Josette to marry in 1897 (not 1896; silly Barnabas!), but deep down, I must've known it would mean the end of the show. That was some seriously fast-acting poison, btw. Josette had barely swallowed and was already on the floor.
Poor, poor Natalie, forced to betray the niece whom she loves so dearly.
Did Grayson, as Natalie, summon real tears? She made me believe she was really crying.
I LOVE this intro to the new storyline, even knowing that it's the one that caused me to give up watching DS altogether. I love the costumes, the makeup, the props, the ritual... It looks like a good deal of planning went into it. The pins that the beings wear are very cool-- 3 s's that meet in the center, overlapping to resemble a 3-headed snake inside a circle. It ties to the "S" that Haza traced in the air with her hand. Very, very cool.
Petofi box in Millicent's room?
Yep, it sure was. Her entire room was recycled. Natalie's gown, too.
