I'm glad we won't have to compete for the chandelier, AD. I'll take it without electricity. It's funny that you mention it because I couldn't take my eyes off of it! I was fascinated more with the inanimate objects in this episode than the actual goings-on. The real stars of the show today were the Old House chandelier (actually, the whole OH set with all the burning candles), David's longsleeved button shirt, Joe's jacket and David's humongous crystal ball-- with Carolyn's hairbow getting honorable mention.
Yeah, DL, Willie seemed to relish making Barn squirm. And I rather enjoyed watching it myself. I am always amazed when Willie gets away with taunting Barn. Their present-day relationship totally fascinates me. And it never occurred to me about Wille's uneasiness about going to the family crypt but, wow, yeah, what a head-trip it must be for him to have to go back there: day or night.
I too thought about Joe's & Carolyn's previous relationship while watching them together, Lydia. I thought Carolyn looked somewhat 'hurt' when Joe asked for David, but after re-watching the episode I realize I saw what I expected to see. I didn't know it was so soon after the breakup but I still expected to see an uneasiness between them.
I know at some point during the week Barn (while talking to Julia, I believe) mentioned that way back when, Sarah perceived a change in him but wasn't aware of what exactly the change was and never held it against him, blah, blah, blah. I thought that Sarah died before Barn 'changed'? And does anyone remember if Sarah's name was always there on the crypt wall or is that a recent family history rewrite?
David is pretty good with a crystal ball. He's so smart. If he thinks about something long enough, it comes to him. I suspect he really doesn't need a crystal ball at all.
Well, if Barn's worth his salt as a vampire, he should have no problem sensing that David is in the coffin, especially after placing his hand on it. I guess we'll find out Monday.
[spoiler]I don't know if I am correctly remembering this or if it is just an old dredged up misthought, but I am picturing Barn opening the coffin and David not being in there, but actually hiding under it or behind it (or somewhere in the room). But if that were the case they'd have probably had Barn open the coffin for the Friday cliffhanger. Now that I am giving it more thought I am picturing Amy & David hiding under a coffin in the Old House. I guess it's time to stop thinking and enjoy the weekend.[/spoiler]
