[spoiler]I wish they just had let Joe leave town as he would tell Maggie in a later episode before he ended up being sent away.[/spoiler]

[IluvBarnabas]

Is it just me, or did Barnabas seem a little disappointed to learn that Angelique had another victim other than him?

Though that can't be right, because he has to know that it was Angelique who made Tom what he was. Although the difference is she dispatched him almost immediately, while hanging onto Joe for quite some time.

Joe admits to Maggie there WAS another girl....but he can't tell her who or WHAT she is. How hurt and dejected Maggie must feel....apparently she wasn't woman enough to satisfy Joe, even though we the viewers know that is not really the case at all.

I did like to see how Barnabas disobeyed Angelique and took Joe to the Old House rather than leave him off to die in the woods. However [spoiler] one has to wonder if he ended up regretting that decision after Joe tries to strangle him a bit later on. [/spoiler]

Joe realizes that Barnabas is under Angelique's spell and wants to kill him however he lacks the strength to do so. Really sad to see Joe come to this, first suicidal because of Angelique's rejection of him, then homicidal due to his delusion that if he gets rid of Barnabas, Angelique will want to turn to him again, which is not very likely to happen.

Good episode.

Barn and Joe are vampire victims, of the same vampire, so they can't help being jealous of each other, no matter what conflicting other feelings are going on, too.

Oh that's why they showed us Adam cutting open a couple book pages with the letter opener earlier, I thought, to establish that there's an available sharp object to stab with.

As Joe writhes on the floor in agony, a fly buzzes around him--at least according to my notes.

At the Old House, Julia cuts open Joe’s turtleneck sweater to examine the wound. Yes, we get full upper frontal nudity at last on this show (and not bad either, with not too much chest hair)!

Later, a sad scene when Maggie and Joe lament that their lives have turned out so differently from what they had planned.

Julia doesn’t seem to register that Barnabas has suddenly taken to wearing an ascot with a velvet smoking jacket (red, naturally).

Julia gets the job of cutting off Joe's shirt and noticed his marked neck. Julia out of the blue suspects it is Cassandra Collins.  Barnabas nixes the idea. Joe is covered in afghan.
