I just love 1995.
I'm seeing none of the usual familiar mix-and-match props here, which adds to the eerie atmosphere.
Golly did Carolyn look awful! It was clear that there was a lot of makeup there, and I imagined Carolyn slathering it on every other morning or so. I thought of Carolyn as we first saw her in 1966, young and silly. It was terribly sad to see her so changed.
When Barnabas said to Julia, "Be careful," I had my usual reaction of "So what else is new?" but then he said, "Dear friend," and I thought: "He really means it. It isn't just gratitude." But then I thought: they're alone together in an alien time, encountering hostility everywhere. Of course he's thinking of Julia as his dear friend - for the moment.
It seemed to me that something strange was going on with the plaques in the mausoleum. Isn't Naomi's plaque the one on the secret panel? I'm sure that when Julia came out of the secret room in the morning, it was Joshua's plaque there. So either my memory is wrong or my eyes are wrong, or else somebody has been playing musical plaques.
It was fun to see Julia exuding skepticism as the Records Clerk avoided answering any and all of Julia's questions, and it made a nice contrast to her demeanor with Barnabas inside the mausoleum.
