Just as soon as the story returned to 1969, the appropriate portraits were returned to the fireplaces in both mansions. But that was a couple of eps ago, and in this one we still see the 1897 bulbs in the Collinwood foyer.
Stokes to Julia, about Ned: "He seemed a rather surly fellow."
Ya think??!!
When Chris mentioned that Sabrina was "still in Collinwood," I'm guessing the actor misspoke, but when he said, "She's still the only person who ever witnessed the transformation," the writers obviously forgot about Joe. And that's if you only consider the short list of
survivors.
Now that we're seeing Lisa Richards' real hair (with a temp color), one could say it's grey, or silver, or even blue, but it's definitely not white. I can't believe I'm saying this, but they should have kept the white wig.
Julia to Barnabas: "Today, I was given reason to believe that Charles Delaware Tate may still be alive."
Huh??!??
Uh oh, there's a phone in the foyer again. We know what that means!
I'm confused. As far as I could tell, when Barnabas appeared between the halves of the stone monument, he was carrying a book, not a box. But he told Julia that he had brought the box from the past.
As I watched, I was thinking that the box appeared around the book to keep it safe and hidden. Yes, I know that makes no logical sense.
I was surprised when the heartbeat started coming from Barnabas's portrait. Apparently it's beyond Barnabas's control, because he certainly had no desire to see Julia.
Now that one I chalk up to the writers needing an excuse to get Julia to the Old House at night.
I didn't know Sabrina had amnesia; I just thought she couldn't talk.
I don't think that's why Prof. Stokes was prompting all those questions; I'd always believed that he was trying to make Sabrina talk as much as possible so that she'd be able to speak less hesitantly.
I think it's more likely a repressed memory, which [debatably] can occur after an emotional or psychological trauma, rather than amnesia. Though Sabrina's treatment probably should have been handled by a psychotherapist, Stokes seemed to be using talk therapy to help her. In Freudian psychoanalysis, the focus is on bringing repressed memories to the conscious mind, blah blah.
JF does contempt and sarcasm so well. Makes me wish I'd seen him as Richard III in his prime.
