[spoiler]Today's quote:
Ep #99 (1966) - Burke - 'I don't understand. She was willing to ride with me a half hour before we were supposed to leave, then she changed her mind. If I frightened her, it MUST have happened in that half hour.'
From "#0099/0100: Robservations 07/31/01: Pen-Man-Ship"
you'd better keep your eye on and watch out for that Miss Winters--I overheard her this morning telling Carolyn--came out and practically said she was afraid of you.Why should she say that? asks Burke. I don't know, says Sarah, but it has something to do with a trip to Bangor. That's ridiculous, he says, I gave her no reason in the world to be afraid of me. I don't know, says Sarah, that's what I overheard, she said she was afraid--I couldn't tell you why. A strange thing did happen, says Burke, one minute she was going to ride back to Collinsport with me, and next she decided to stay in Bangor overnight--I thought it odd at the time. She didn't stay in Bangor overnight--she called Roger Collins to come get her that night, and he did. Roger? asks Burke, stupefied--she called Roger?--I don't understand--she was willing to ride with me a half hour before we were supposed to leave, then she changed her mind--if I frightened her, it must have happened in that half hour--I spent most of the time in a business meeting and didn't speak to her, except to tell her we were going to leave--it doesn't make any sense at all!
The Robservations references the quote perfectly...
And this is the fourth quote from this ep. The first (Burke - 'No one MUST know there's ever been any connection between you and me') was back on April 20th of 2020, the second (Ezra Hearne - 'We're not stupid, at least not as stupid as you MUST think') was back on June 2nd of 2023, and the third (Mrs. Johnson - 'And... and you think what I heard MUST have come from another room?') was back on September 13th. So all that means that Ep #99 has joined the club with Eps #2, #3, #42, #44, #50, #52, #54, #66, #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!!
