[spoiler]Today's quote:
Ep #275 (1967) - Liz - 'Carolyn, where are you? Where did you go? Where? I... I MUST find you.'

From "#0275/0276: Robservations 12/07/01: Farewell, Jason!"

A restless, disturbed Liz lies in her bed. She's worried about Carolyn, wondering where she is

The Robservations doesn't reference the quote directly at all because it falls in the period with little detail. However it does reference the quote's circumstances...

And this is the fourth quote from this ep. The first (Willie - 'No, Jason, you MUSTN'T! You can't!') was back on December 29th, the second (Carolyn - 'We'll get the best lawyers in the  country. And... and you MUSTN'T worry. I'll be right there with you-- all through the trial') was back on January 3rd, and the third (Liz - 'This MUSTN'T be a dream. It MUSTN'T!') was back on January 14th of 2022. So all that means that Ep #275 has joined the club with Eps #2, #3, #42, #44, #50, #52, #54, #66, #99, #106, #119, #133, #158, #195, #208, #211, #212, #271, #296, #300, #308, #315, #340, #365, #367, #377, #384, #405, #410, #426, #449, #450, #462, #466, #479, #481, #503, #506, #518, #528, #534, #543, #544, #545, #550, #555, #608, #609, #629, #639, #643, #644, #646, #647, #651, #655, #678, #709, #717, #727, #734, #742, #743, #746, #750, #763, #764, #796, #883, #884, #886, #889, #915, #926, #975, #976, #977, #993, #1006, #1011, #1014, #1025, #1057, #1064, #1081, #1111, #1125, #1126, #1127, #1128, #1150, #1197, #1199, #1206, #1218, #1222, #1223 and #1232. However, not only recall that Eps #42, #44, #52, #66, #133, #208, #211, #300, #367, #377, #384, #449, #466, #543, #544, #550, #609, #629, #639, #646, #655, #678, #709, #727, #734, #742, #746, #915, #977, #993, #1057, #1111, #1197 & #1218. have five quotes, but Eps #66, #377, #384, #449, #550, #646, #727, #915 & #993 have six quotes, and even more of a milestone, Ep #550 has seven!!

[spoiler]Today's quote:
Ep #421 (1796) - Barnabas - 'If you love me, it's unfair of me to ask you to live your life as you MUST if I'm to be a part of it.'

From '#0421/0422: Robservations 04/01/02: "Lit Only By Our Love"'

Nightfall. Josette locks herself in her room, and she's thrilled when Barnabas enters through the secret panel. Does you hate me, he asks?-I was almost afraid to face you again. She assures him she loves him. He tries one more time to talk her out of her decision, reminding her of the life they will have to lead--can she give up her family and friends, live a secret life, afraid of even a knock at the door, the risks, a life of chance? Yes, she assures him. The only thing she fears is his telling her he doesn't love her, but he promises her that isn't true. They love each other, she reminds him, and she trusts him. She will be different, as he is, Barnabas points out, does she understand that?

She realizes he is dead, yet alive, she says. No ceremony can make her more his wife, Josette says, her eyes gleaming, a smile of joy on her lips.

Once again the Robservations doesn't reference the quote directly but at least it does reference the quote's circumstances...

And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Vicki - 'What do you want, Countess? You MUST want something') was back on October 4th.

[spoiler]Today's quote:
Ep #554 (1968) - Julia - 'Someone MUST have told him about the experiment. He- he isn't capable of- of remembering it himself just as a child isn't capable of remembering the moment that it was born. Someone MUST have told him. But- but who?'

From "Robservations 7/10/02 - #554/555 - Guess Who's a Vampire Now?"

All Barnabas knows is the change in Adam is amazing, and he's far more dangerous than before. Julia asks if he knows what it means, and Barnabas says they must find Vicki before Adam can harm her. No, says Julia, it means much more--it means Adam knows what he is, knows he's a creation, about the experiment, everything, and he's able to communicate what he knows. Someone had to have told him about the experiment, she says, but who? Barnabas has no answers, but says he's calling the police, Vicki's in danger. Julia reminds him if the police capture Adam, he'll tell them about the experiment and both of them will be exposed. Barnabas insists he's willing to take that risk for Vicki, but Julia doesn't agree. They start to fight over the phone, but a knock at the door interrupts them

The except from Robservations uses a "must" where none appears in the ep and doesn't use the one that's part of the quote. However, at least it does reference the quote's circumstances...

And this is the third quote from this ep. The first (Nicholas - 'Too bad you had to open that door, Jennings. I could almost pity you, knowing what MUST be in store for you now') was back on December 29th of 2020, and the second (Barnabas - 'Why are they howling that way? I'm cured of what I was. They MUST sense something is happening. What could it be?') was back on September 29th.

[spoiler]Today's quote:
Ep #658 (1968) - Joe - 'Yes, it was. Oh it MUST have started that night at Maggie's house-- when I was attacked.'

From "Robservations 9/23/2 - #658/659 - Joe's Terrible Nightmare; Quentin Gets His Way"

Chris tells him he hasn't been at Collinwood in a long time--really, he hasn't! He advances toward Joe, who asks if he remembers him coming to his room, giving him the gun, asking him to shoot him. "Shoot me?" asks Chris incredulously, I would surely remember something like that! Joe is confused. Chris tells him it never happened. Joe sits down on one of the coffins and says perhaps none of it happened--maybe it was all just a nightmare. Chris doesn't know, but it was obviously frightening. Joe figures it started the night at Maggie's house, when he was attacked. This shocks Chris--who attacked you? he asks Joe. I don't know, says Joe, but it was an animal that walked like a man--I struggled with it, ripped off part of its shirt, and matched one of yours to it--when I went to show it to you, you turned into a wolf. Chris says that WAS a bad dream, he's the same as he ever was. Joe asks why he's in the mausoleum, but Chris observes he's still trembling and is surprised he'd ask that. Chris says he's ALWAYS out at night, he knows that. Joe doesn't know that, he was in his room the previous two nights at the Collinsport Inn. Ah, says Chris, I see, maybe you didn't have a nightmare after all. . .it's just a simple case of mistaken identity. Chris laughs--you always did have trouble telling "us brothers" apart. Joe stares, thinks.

"I'm not Chris, I'm Tom."--oh, no, says Joe, it can't be, you're dead. "Not at night, Joe," says Tom reasonably--"Only during the day."

The Robservations doesn't reference the quote directly but does its circumstances...

And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Joe - 'She MUSTN'T ever see it! Do you understand?!') was back on February 20th of 2023.

And this ep is Joe's last appearance on DS (though not Joel Crother's last appearance).

[spoiler]Today's quote:
Ep #798 (1897) - Barnabas - 'I know your feeling. Everyone I love MUST die too.'

From "Robservations 1/6/03 - #798-799 - Losses"

Magda tells Barnabas, for the first time, I have no interest in what will happen now, tomorrow or ever.  You will, he assures her.  I cannot live without love, she says--whoever I love will die!  I know your feelings, he says--everyone I love must die, too.  Oh, Barnabas! she says, then remembers--the child, Jenny's child, Quentin's son!  Barnabas reminds her, you've never seen him.  It's possible to love without seeing someone, insists Magda

The Robservations references the quote perfectly...

And this is the third quote from this ep. The first ('Victor' - 'I MUST see you. I don't care how late it is. There's a certain thing you should be apprised of, Aristede. One hour. At the usual place. And do not be late') was back on March 17th () of 2022, and the second (Aristede - 'Julianka MUST'VE had the hand somewhere. Why didn't you get it from her?') was back on September 7th.

[spoiler]Today's quote:
Ep #933 (1969) - Prof. Stokes - 'Whatever it was, you MUST stop hiding from what happened. You MUST try to talk to me. You MUST realize that you're safe. Safe.'

From "Robservations 5/9/03 - #932-933 - Mr. Best Has a Busy Day"

Stokes' house - Paul sits on the sofa, staring blankly ahead.  You must stop hiding from whatever it was, advises Stokes--you must try to talk to me, realize that you're safe now--safe. Paul says nothing.

The Robservations paraphrases the quote but covers all the main points well...

And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Amanda - 'But we MUSTN'T forget') was back on August 20th.

[spoiler]Today's quote:
Ep #1034 (1970PT) - Barnabas - 'Look, he MUST have tore the telephone right out of her hands.'

From "#1034/1035: Robservations 07/25/03: Cyrus' Sad End; Hoffman KNOWS!"

I can't go into the drawing room, says Liz, trembling--I'll always remember his hands around her throat!  Just talk, it will do you good, insists Barnabas, leading her into the drawing room--she's gone now, there's nothing in this room to be frightened of.  Barnabas lifts the nifty booze cabinet-- why were Yaeger and Sabrina here? he asks. I can't figure that out, says Liz. Barnabas pours her a drink--did you know that Yaeger once threatened Maggie? he asks. No, says Liz.  He hands her a drink--I heard about it in town, he says--Yaeger was very fond of her.  Maybe he came here thinking he'd find her, suggests Liz.  That's a possibility, agrees Barnabas. Are there any others? she asks. Barnabas examines the torn phone wire--he must have ripped it right from her hands, he says--who could Sabrina have been calling?--we must find out somehow, not only because of Sabrina, but Maggie, as well. Barnabas! says Liz. I know it, he says.

The Robservations paraphrases the quote but does so well...

And this is the third quote from this ep. The first (Cyrus - 'I MUST TELL them everything!') was back on June 14th of 2020, and the second (Cyrus - 'She MUST be found...before you feel the pain') was back on October 24th of 2022.

[spoiler]Today's quote:
Ep #1093 (1970) - Voice of Carrie - 'You MUST. Look in the house-- Rose Cottage. You asked what would happen to you. Find out. Find out. You MUST know. Look through the window. Look through the window.'

From "#1093/1094: Robservations 09/05/03: A Song is Sung"

#1093

The Robservations for Ep #1093 doesn't summarize the teaser, which is the same as the ending of Ep #1092. So, here's an excerpt of how things play at the end of Ep #1092:

From "#1091/1092: Robservations 09/04/03: Carolyn Finds the Playroom"

They are about to leave the room when they hear Carrie's soft voice calling their names, telling them not to go--"We're ready now."  We don't want to see, says David. You must, says Carrie--look in the house--Rose Cottage--you asked what would happen to you--find out...find out--you must know--look through the window. David and Hallie fearfully return to the house and peer through the window.

Inside they see themselves (actually, Tad and Carrie) sitting at the table. "See David? See, Hallie?--now you know what's to happen to you--now you know," says Carrie's voice.

The Robservations references the quote almost perfectly...

And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Carolyn - 'Oh, David, you MUST hear it') was back on August 22nd.

From "#1154_1155/1156: Robservations 11/05/03: A Death; An Arrest For Murder"

Collinwood - Samantha looks out the window.  Trask enters--I don't think I should leave until the constable makes his decision, he says.  Where is the constable now? asks Samantha.  He just left Gabriel and has gone up to see Quentin, says Trask.  What am I going to do when he comes down? she asks.  Whatever your conscience dictates, my dear, says Trask.  My son...says Samantha.  Trask reminds her, it would be worse for him to grow up in this atmosphere of evil--when I think of the heinous practices that have gone on in this house!  Please, Lamar, she begs.  Painful as it is, says Trask, you must protect your son from his own father.

The Robservations references the quote almost perfectly...

And when it comes to the screen capture, as you can see -

- Henry Kaplan struck again.

And this is the third quote from this ep. The first (Samantha - 'Yes, I MUST, MUSTN'T I? I never really believed that Quentin's interest in the black arts was anything but a foolish eccentricity-- but I MUST now-- I do!') was back on April 5th of 2021, and the second (Constable Ward - 'Randall's reasons for going to the police MUST have been mentioned') was back on April 1st of 2023.

Ep #1228 (1841PT) - Bramwell - 'I MUST- I MUST go upstairs if you'll excuse me.'

From "#1228/1229: Robservations 01/02/04: Daphne Faces the Truth"

Daphne comes in--may I speak to you? she asks hesitantly.  Certainly, he says.  When I asked you to take me away, you said no, she reminds him--you said I could either stay and be your wife, or I could leave by myself--that was the choice you gave me--I've decided what I'm going to do.  I see, he says noncommittally.  I'm going to stay, she says, running into his embrace--oh, Bramwell, I was so lonely even for just the hour I was by myself, I know I could never live without you.  You don't have to, he assures her gently.  I know that, she says, but we can make this marriage work, be happy together, be happier than anyone else could be.  She's touching his face, his jacket front, trying hard to be seductive.  Bramwell suddenly, angrily, insists, I have to go upstairs--if you'll excuse me--and does, leaving her alone.  She calls up the stairs to him, assuring him, things will be different from now on--we should go out tonight, just the two of us--"Bramwell, did you hear me?--you didn't, did you?"  She realizes he is gone--"You didn't hear a word I said."  She bows her head sadly.

The Robservations paraphrases the quote and changes "must" to "have to" - shameful!!...

And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Flora - 'He IS Morgan, we MUST continue to think that') was back on February 12th.

[spoiler]Today's quote:
Ep #101 (1966) - Carolyn - 'Say, why didn't you run into Uncle Roger? You MUST have passed each other.'

From "#0101/0102: Robservations 08/01/01: Roger's Evil Intentions"

Do you know why Roger wanted to see me? asks Vicki. What? asks Carolyn, distracted as she surveys her reflection, let me think...yes, it had something to do with that fountain pen Burke gave me--as soon as I told him I told you about it, he lost interest in everything else. You told him I knew that he'd lost it? asks Vicki in consternation. Sure, why not? asks Carolyn.

Vicki closes the bedroom door and locks it, blocking off David. What did he say? asks Vicki, concerned, sitting in a chair beside her. Nothing at all, says Carolyn--oh, he got a little sore because I made a crack about it being a secret weapon, saying it had something to do with Bill Malloy's death. Vicki, upset, asks if he seemed alarmed. No, just upset that I'd make a joke about anything that happened that night, says Carolyn. I guess I shouldn't have, really--but it's all over and done with now, I can't keep mourning forever, can I? (She barely mourned at all, superficial little heiress.) She puts on some perfume. Of course not, agrees Vicki. Why didn't you run into Uncle Roger, you must have passed each other? says Carolyn. I guess I came in the back way, says Vicki, when he was going out the front. That's too bad--anyway, he's looking for you, says Carolyn

The Robservations references the quote almost perfectly...

And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Carolyn - 'I just caught him red-handed standing and listening to your conversation. It's just what he MUST have been doing earlier today when we were talking about my date then he had to go and blab everything to Uncle Roger'') was back on December 27th of 2024.

Ep #277 (1967) - Vicki - 'You MUST have a very interesting library.'

From "#0277/0278: Robservations 12/10/01: Party Hearty, Barnabas!"

Vicki greets Barnabas at Collinwood's front door, where he rhapsodizes about how much he loves the night, preferring it to the "ugliness" of the sun. He tells her he'd like to discuss other subjects with her, like life and death, and a dog howls as they head into the house. Barnabas invites Vicki to check out his library of historical volumes sometime

The Robservations doesn't reference the quote directly but sort of references its circumstances...

And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Barnabas - 'This house MUST become a more inviting place. I know, I will invite the Collins family here for a gathering'') was back on September 13th of 2020.

[spoiler]Today's quote:
Ep #422 (1796) - Countess du Pres - 'I MUST say I feel rather frightened.'

From '#0421/0422: Robservations 04/01/02: "Lit Only By Our Love"'

Foyer - Natalie attempts to discuss the ring with Joshua, but he pays no attention to her, and hastily leaves the house.

The Robservations doesn't reference the quote at all and barely even its circumstances. However, the AOL Update from back when the ep was shown on the Sci-Fi Channel as the first ep on 1/30/96 is better:

   Natalie sees Joshua with his overcoat on and tells him that a doctor isn't necessary.  He says he wasn't going for a doctor; he's going out to do something important.  Doesn't he want to ask Josette about the ring?  He'll ask about it later.  Natalie whines that she's frightened.  After telling her there's nothing to worry about, Joshua departs.  Natalie studies the portrait.

And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Josette - 'I don't want to be free of you--I'm yours--I MUST go with you. Not to death and darkness, but to a world of unending joy. Come, take my hand and we'll go together') was back on December 5th of 2020.

[spoiler]Today's quote:
Ep #556 (1968) - Angelique - 'You MUST give me something in order for me to help.'

From "Robservations 7/11/02 - #556/557 - Adam's Ultimatum"

perhaps you're lost in a void in time suggests Ang, caught between present and past but belonging to neither.

Vicki refuses to believe this. Ang says she's come to help her escape. Vicki wonders why, considering how vicious and cruel Ang has always been to her. Huffy, Ang starts to leave, but Vicki says she'll accept anyone's help. Angelique demands Vicki's engagement ring; she'll take it to the man she loves, and through it, he will find her. Vicki refuses, and Ang says she can't help her--and she's the only one who can. Vicki asks where she's going--why would Ang take her ring if she isn't trying to help her? Angelique explains she doesn't exist in time, and wordily possessions mean nothing to her. Vicki fears she wants it because it's her last link with reality, and refuses to give it up. So be it, say Ang, turning to leave. She won't come back, and neither will anyone else--Vicki will face eternity in the room because she refused her help. She bids Vicki goodbye and says she pities her. Vicki tells her to wait, and says that while she still doesn't trust her, if there's one chance in a million she's telling the truth. . .reluctantly, she drops her cherished ring into Ang's hand. The man you love will find you, Ang assures her. Yes, give it to Jeff, begs Vicki, so he'll know I'm alive.

The Robservations doesn't reference the quote but it does reference the situation that prompts it...

And this is the fourth quote from this ep. The first (Vicki - 'Why am I here? You MUST tell me') was back on April 6th of 2022, the second (Vicki - 'This MUST be a dream') was back on February 21st of 2023, and the third (Nicholas - 'And you MUST accomplish something during the visit. I'll tell you what in a moment. But the visit MUST be the most terrifying experience she has ever had in her life') was back on June 18th of 2023. (And the first two quotes as well as today's all come from the same scene.) So all that means that Ep #556 has joined the club with Eps #2, #3, #42, #44, #50, #52, #54, #66, #99, #106, #119, #133, #158, #195, #208, #211, #212, #271, #275, #296, #300, #308, #315, #340, #365, #367, #377, #384, #405, #410, #426, #449, #450, #462, #466, #479, #481, #503, #506, #518, #528, #534, #543, #544, #545, #550, #555, #608, #609, #629, #639, #643, #644, #646, #647, #651, #655, #678, #709, #717, #727, #734, #742, #743, #746, #750, #763, #764, #796, #883, #884, #886, #889, #915, #926, #975, #976, #977, #993, #1006, #1011, #1014, #1025, #1057, #1064, #1081, #1111, #1125, #1126, #1127, #1128, #1150, #1197, #1199, #1206, #1218, #1222, #1223 and #1232.

From "Robservations 1/11/03 - #805-806 - Portrait of a Confession"

The door opens.  It's Evan, who asks, am I interrupting something?  "Morning devotional," says Trask, we are just about finished.  Good, says Evan, I want to get down to business.  Trask agrees--go to your room, Charity, he says, and read a chapter or two.  She complies.  I'm glad to see you carrying a paper, says Trask--I assume your reservations have been removed and you found yourself able to do what must be done.  Yes, says Evan, it's the only thing to do.  He places it on the desk and says, sign it--let's get it over with.

The Robservations paraphrases the quote but comes close to what is actually said...

And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Gregory - 'This madness MUST NOT touch you again. Never again'), which is from the same scene as today's, was back on June 12th of 2022.
