[spoiler]January 21st's quote:
Ep #1230 (1841PT) - Jamorg - 'Yes, you MUST listen to me... while there is still time. You MUST hear the truth.'

From "#1230/1231: Robservations 01/05/04: Brutus' Revenge"

Upstairs, Julia hears Morgan screaming, "STAY AWAY FROM ME! STAY AWAY FROM ME!" She comes in to find Morgan lying on the floor. You are still Forsythe, she says. Yes, he agrees, but Brutus is here and sending me back to my tomb--time is running out, I feel weaker every moment--you must listen to me, while there is still time, you must hear the truth about the curse--what really happened in 1680. Yes, says Julia anxiously, you must tell me!

"Brutus is here! It is too late for you to stop me!" Forsythe shouts--"I am going to tell the truth at last--what really happened in 1680--your family will finally know about the curse!"

The Robservations references the quote almost perfectly...

And this is the third quote from this ep. The first (Julia - 'Yes, you MUST tell me! Tell me, you MUST!') was back on October 13th of 2024, and the second (Quentin - 'We MUST join hands. Now, we MUST maintain contact throughout, and remember, we've got to concentrate, concentrate very deeply') was back on December 15th of 2024.

[spoiler]January 22nd's quote:
Ep #114 (1966) - Roger - 'He MUST want something else from you, what?'

From "#0113/0114: Robservations 08/08/01: Befriending a Murderer"

He folds up the paper and goes to answer the phone. It's Burke, asking for Vicki. It's for you, says Roger, scowling. Vicki takes the phone. Hello, she says. Burke asks her to come to his hotel room this morning. I'm not sure, she says. It's very important, he tells her, vitally important. In that case, all right, she says. I'll be waiting for you, he says. Goodbye, she says, and hangs up. What did Devlin want? asks Roger--do you think I didn't recognize his voice?--what are you conspiring about now? We're not conspiring about anything, says Vicki. What did he want? asks Roger. I think he just wanted to see me, she says--I imagine he heard what happened with Matthew and me. He can get a full account of that in the local paper, says Roger--he must want something else from you--what? I don't know what he wants, he didn't say, she says. I suppose I can't stop you from seeing him, says Roger, but I'll tell you this much, Vicki--this man is trying to destroy this family--he is our enemy

--and as long as you continue to see him, I must regard you as our enemy also. (Ouch!)

The Robservations references the quote perfectly...

And this is the third quote from this ep. The first (Roger - 'He MUST be crouched in some hovel now, a hundred miles from here') was back on December 28th of 2021, and the second (Roger - 'As long as you continue to see him, I MUST regard you as our enemy also') was back on April 10th of 2022.

[spoiler]January 23rd's quote:
Ep #811 (1897[-1967]) - Jenny's Ghost - 'I was mad, but I knew they were taking her away. I was mad, but I knew she MUST not stay at Collinwood.'

From "#Robservations 2/14/03 - #811-812 - Miss Harris Inflames Trask's Loins"

Quentin sits listening to his music, a drink at hand, butts in the ashtray.  He's sleeping on the sofa in the drawing room.  The bottle is mostly empty.  Quentin dreams.  He hears Jenny singing her lullaby to the baby.  He rises from the sofa and goes to her.  Jenny looks very pretty.  She finishes her song and tells Quentin--she's sleeping peacefully now.  She's as beautiful as her mother, says Quentin.  Jenny grins, agrees, yes, she is.  He joins her.  I'm sorry for you, says Jenny, having to give her up.  I'm going to take her back to Collinwood, he protests.  After she was born, relates, Jenny, they took her away from me--I was mad, but I knew they were taking her away-- knew she must not stay at Collinwood.  She belongs here, says Quentin.  No, says Jenny, there will be no happiness for anyone at Collinwood, there never has been--there can be none for her.  Nothing will happen to her, promises Quentin.  A child can't be shut in behind such high walls, insists Jenny.

The Robservations references the quote almost perfectly...

And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Edward(as his true self) - 'One MUST always do the right thing. It takes the right person to do the right thing. When the wrong person does the right thing, it's wrong') was back on October 31st.

[spoiler]January 24th's quote:
Ep #426 (1796) - Barnabas - 'You stopped me, Angelique. Why? Are you determined to keep me in this hell you've consigned me to? Have you no pity? I MUST leave here.'

From "#0425/0426: Robservations 04/03/02: Tragedy on Widows' Hill"

no one who loves me shall live, declares Barnabas--that was the curse. Sensing his dead wife's presence, he shouts, I will end the curse--you will kill no one else that I love-do you hear me? I will go to my father and let him do what must be done. The gate clangs shut, Angelique's cruel laughter echoing through the tomb.  Barnabas tears at the bars, screaming to Angelique, Are you determined to keep me in this hell you have consigned me to?--Have you no pity?--I know you will not let me die--I will never love anyone again--you need kill no one else!--I will never show love for another human being again!-Your curse is over!--go back to your grave! The gate swings open, creaking, slowly, and Barnabas orders Ben not to follow him

The Robservations references most of the quote almost perfectly, though it doesn't include the "must" part - shameful!!...

And this is the fifth quote from this ep. The first (Millicent - 'Barnabas MUST kill Nathan. Oh I, I suppose it has to be in the course of a technicality like a duel, but he MUST kill him') was back on September 14th of 2020, the second (Millicent - 'If you have not seen Barnabas, and I have, then someone MUST find out why') was back on June 9th of 2021, the third (Joshua - 'Yes, I MUST find out why') was back on June 25th of 2022, and the fourth (Millicent - 'Ben knows that Barnabas is back. But he lied to me. You MUST punish him for lying, Cousin Joshua. When it is this important, someone MUST be punished') was back on December 8th of 2022.

And this ep now shares the of a fifth quote with Eps #42, #44, #52, #66, #106, #133, #208, #211, #300, #367, #377, #384, #449, #466, #543, #544, #550, #556, #609, #629, #639, #646, #655, #678, #709, #727, #734, #742, #746, #915, #977, #993, #1057, #1111, #1197 & #1218. However, recall that there's an even bigger because Eps #66, #377, #384, #449, #550, #646, #709, #727, #915 & #993 have six quotes, and even a bigger still because Ep #550 has seven!!
