Poor Bramwell! Even taking a bullet didn't get him the woman he loves. Morgan says that Bramwell is the best shot in the family. I've always wondered if it wasn't one squirrel stew too many that sent him off to seek his fortune.

Poor Daphne! So honest, so naive.

Yes, I love Kate Jackson in this role.

When we first saw Morgan, he seemed like a decent young man.  Not very likable, but decent.  Now, however, every time I see him he seems like more and more of a jerk.  Is Catherine so used to being treated badly by Bramwell that she can't see this?

What fun to see Gerard Stiles as just another local yokel!  With psychic abilities to be sure, but still just another guy in Collinsport.  A former servant at Collinwood.  Why did he leave?

At the end of the show I was struck how much Kendrick Young seemed like an outsider.  John Karlen has been on the show for nearly four years, and he has played two Collinses - but Kendrick Young seemed to be a complete stranger to everything Collins.

And wouldn't Julia like to keep him that way too!

Nice little bit by JF: As Bramwell turns away from Daphne and toward us, we can see the desolation in his eyes at the news she has brought him.

PT Gerard seems just as unsavory as his RT counterpart. I'll bet he got fired from Collinwood, and I'm sure it was for something far more sinister than trying to make off with the family's silver.

That's quite possibly a very interesting insight into Catherine.
