[spoiler]Yesterday's quote:
Ep #561 (1968) - Nicholas - 'If Mr. Haskell is to be summoned, you MUST do the summoning. He will hear you.'

From "Robservations 7/15/02 - #560/561 - Ang Seduces Her New Victim"

Angelique rises, hungry, and Nicholas tells her he's been expecting her. Where is Joe, she asks, and Nick tells her that SHE must summon Joe if she wants him-he'll hear her--he needs her as much as she needs him. Angelique looks out the windows, parts the curtains, and calls Joe to come to her. "Come to me," she wheedles. Joe looks at his reflection in the mirror, ordering himself to resist her. He's warring fiercely with himself, wanting to go and not wanting to just as much. Angelique continues to call her victim, telling him she needs him now. "You need me. You want me. Come. . .come to me."

Joe struggles, then realizes he does need and want her-he can't resist her any longer, he can't! He leaves his room. Angelique is smiling. "You know how to find me," she says, "come as quickly as you can. You will be drawn to this house, irresistibly drawn, through the forest to the house by the sea."

[/spoiler]

The Robservations paraphrases the quote a bit but gets its points across...

And as I said back when we used the variant of the quote when the scene is restaged in Ep #562, the lines are actually worded somewhat differently in Ep #561 than they are in Ep #562 (Nicholas - 'If your friend is to be summoned, you MUST do the summoning. He will hear you'), so that means Ep #561's version could also be quoted in the slideshow one day - and that day was yesterday. 

And this is the third quote from this ep. The first (Joe - 'She MUSTN'T know about this. Don't tell her') was back on December 29th, and the second (Angelique - 'Joe, you need me, just as I need you. You MUST come to me. Now') was back on January 28th.

[spoiler]Yesterday's quote:
Ep #816 (1897) - Petofi - 'But he MUST exist in some time. Otherwise, he could hardly possess the boy, could he?'

From "Robservations #815/816"

Quentin, carrying Jamison, comes in and says, "He's dying."  He places him on the sofa.  "Why bring him here then?" asks Petofi.  Take him to a doctor.  That will do no good, says Q, he's been possessed!  Really? asks Petofi.  An alien spirit controls him, says Q desperately, and he'll die unless you do something!  Do you know whose it is? asks the Count.  David Collins, answers Q.  Petofi asks, is he an ancestor from the past?  I'm not sure, says Quentin.  Have you heard the name before? asks Petofi.  Jamison had a dream about David Collins, says Q--he told it to Barnabas, who explained it away, saying David Collins didn't exist.  He must exist in some time, suggests Petofi, otherwise, he couldn't be possessing the boy now.  "I don't know!" cries Quentin

[/spoiler]

The Robservations references the quote almost perfectly...

And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Petofi - 'With that one name, with the knowledge of that one person, I can begin my attack-- my attack that will make Barnabas Collins realize he MUST go back to his own time, and take me with him') was back on September 28th of 2020.

[spoiler]Yesterday's quote:
Ep #941 (1970) - Maggie - 'I MUST.'

From "Robservations 5/15/03 - #940-941 - Carolyn Whisked Away; Maggie in Danger"

What are you doing here? asks Maggie.

He eyes her evilly, and smiles when she says, you shouldn't be here. Why not? he asks. Are you on the way to Collinwood? she asks. Is Carolyn there? asks Jeb, I've been waiting for her. She tries to walk past him, but he grabs her.  Why are you in such a hurry? He asks. Because it's going to storm, she starts to say.  Is that the real reason? he asks--don't go, he orders, staring into her eyes, not yet--not yet at all.

[/spoiler]

The Robservations doesn't reference the quote at all, but it comes up after Maggie says she has to go to Collinwood because it's going to storm and Jeb asks her if that's the real reason and before he tells her not to go...

And this is the second quote from this ep. The first ( Liz - 'My imagination. I MUST be more upset than I realize') was back on February 8th of 2020.

From "#1038/1039: Robservations 07/28/03: The Redhead With the Grand Tetons"

Collinwood - Angelique, on the phone, assures her stepfather, I'm all right again, thank you, but you must perfect what you've started, because I intend on doing here what I must!  She hears a door slam and hurriedly hangs up.

The Robservations paraphrases but gets all the points across...

Ep #1162 (1840) - Desmond - 'Witchcraft-- that's ridiculous. There MUST be a definite cause of death.'

From "#1161/1162: Robservations 11/10/03: Another Witchly Death"

Witchcraft, scoffs Desmond--there must be a definite cause of death.  Yes, says Trask, a warlock named Quentin Collins--I suggest you go to your client, counselor, I'm sure he needs you very much.  I will go to him, simply to get the truth, vows Desmond--Lord knows I wouldn't believe you--he hurries out.  And neither would I! says Daphne, going into the foyer and beginning to cry.  Don't be frightened, begs Desmond.  I don't know whether what I feel is fear or anger, she says.

The Robservations references most of the quote...

And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Daphne's Voice - 'You MUST, you MUST. You want to go through with it. You love him. You love him so much. When you see him, run to his arms, run to his arms!') was back on February 11th.

[spoiler]Yesterday's quote:
Ep #1232 (1841PT) - Julia - 'Morgan, if Catherine and Bramwell have been seeing each other, you MUST believe that it is simply friendship.'

From "#1232/1233: Robservations 01/07/04: Daphne Falls Ill"

but I'm no less angry at Bramwell--he must not see her anymore, because if he does, I'm going to kill him.  Julia comes in--that isn't the answer, she chastises--I told you not to get upset about this.  I can't help it, he says.  If Catherine and Bramwell have been seeing each other, says Julia, you must believe it's out of friendship.  That isn't the point, says Morgan.  I want you to know something about Catherine, too, says Julia, before you see her--when you were possessed, she was with you all the time, even when you became dangerous, she wanted to be near YOU!

[/spoiler]

The Robservations references the quote well, though not perfectly...

And this is the fifth quote from this ep. The first (Bramwell - 'Daphne, nothing MUST ever happen to you--nothing') was back on May 12th of 2020, the second (Josette - 'But you know what the doctor said. You need complete rest-- you MUST STAY in bed') was back on January 21st of 2021, the third (Morgan - 'No, you're right. I MUST never think anything like that. I'm sorry') was back on June 16th of 2023, and the fourth (Morgan - 'He MUST NOT see her anymore, because if he does, I'm going to kill him') was back on December 23rd of 2023.

And this ep now shares the of a fifth quote with Eps #42, #44, #52, #66, #106, #133, #208, #211, #300, #367, #377, #384, #426, #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!!

Ep #118 (1966) - Burke - 'Eh, MUST have by this time.'

From "#0117/0118: Robservations 08/10/01: They Search For Vicki"

Joe comes back downstairs. Devlin? he calls. Burke comes up behind him and asks if he found anything. No, I searched all the rooms upstairs, says Joe. Nothing down here, either, says Burke--I could have sworn we'd have found her here if we found her at all. I wonder if the sheriff's gotten up to the main house yet? asks Joe. He must have by this time, says Burke--his men are probably our scouring the woods. Inside the secret room, Matthew listens to what they're saying. Might as well go join them, says Joe. All right, says Burke

[spoiler]Yesterday's quote:
Ep #817 (1897[-1967]) - Barnabas - 'You MUST do it. Immediately, quickly, Quentin.'

From "Robservations #817-818"

Barnabas reminds him, it won't be long before Petofi returns, and when he does, take the cross from my chest.  Can I, without hurting you? asks Q.  You must try, says Barnabas.  I'm afraid for you, protests Quentin.  Do it, orders Barn, immediately, quickly.  Quentin reaches for the cross, but is unable to move his hand close enough.  Petofi, in the other room, is clearly causing this to happen.  Barnabas asks what's the matter.  I don't know, says Quentin--I can't move my hand any further.  Of course you can't, says Barnabas--he wouldn't have let you stay here if there was any chance you'd help me escape.  Quentin balls the hand into a fist, frustrated, in pain.   Barnabas says, it isn't going to be easy to get rid of him, not at all.

[/spoiler]

The Robservations references the quote well though not perfectly...

And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Petofi - 'Surely you MUST realize now you have no choice, Mr. Collins, there is no one left to help you. You MUST take me with you into the future!') was back on December 31st of 2021.

[spoiler]Yesterday's quote:
Ep #429 (1796) - Barnabas - 'Well then I MUST find it. She MUSTN'T be buried without it. It was my pledge to her and hers to me.'

From "#0429/0430: Robservations 04/05/02: Come Back to Me!"

Abruptly, Barnabas announces he wants to see Josette's body.  Ben reminds him gently how she died, and pleads with him not to look at her, to instead remember her as she was.  Was she wearing my ring? asks Barnabas.  Learning she was not, he says he must find it--she must be buried with it.  Ben tries to talk him out of this--Joshua saw Josette wearing the ring, and came to check Barnabas' body--and found the coffin empty.  So he knows, says Barnabas.  He knows nothing, says Ben, he assumed it was graverobbers.  Then he came back, explains Ben, and saw you in the coffin--now he thinks he imagined it all.  Then the danger is past, says Barnabas.  Never! Replies Ben--forget the ring, please!  It was my pledge to her, and hers to me, insists Barnabas stubbornly.

[/spoiler]

The Robservations paraphrases and gets most of the points across except for the first mention that the ring was his pledge to Josette and hers to him...

And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Abigail - 'To save us all, we MUST bear much, we MUST use every power at our command, we...') was back on May 25th of 2020.

Ep #562 (1968) - Angelique - 'You MUST remember that. You MUST never try to resist me again.'

From "Robservations 7/16/02 - Joe Helps Ang "Get" Tom - #562/563"

Once again, Joe awakens, his neck dripping blood. Angelique kneels next to him and asks how he feels. He doesn't know. He thinks he's all right. He's happy, and so is she. "Your eyes," he says, "I can't look away from them."

She tells him he belongs to her now and he must remember that and never try to resist her again. He wants to, he says, but he can't. Why? she asks. He shouldn't be here, he protests

Ep #818 (1897) - Charity - 'Then perhaps I should tell you. I MUST tell someone or I'll go mad.'

From "Robservations #817-818"

I fear when you paint me, I will find some horrible secret, just as I did in Quentin.  Is there really a horrible secret there? he asks.  Not now, but there was, she says, when the face of Quentin turned into that of a wolf!  Taking her face between his hands, he says, I thought I convinced you that had been your imagination.  Yes, then, she says, but I didn't know then what I do now--the reason the portrait changed.  What is that? asks Tate.  She turns again to face him--if I thought I could convince you to believe me...perhaps I should tell you--I must tell someone or go mad! she cries hysterically.  Petofi listens in the other room.  Not right now, Father is expecting me at home, she tells Tate--stay away from Quentin Collins, he isn't good for you, or for anyone else--on nights when the moon is full, stay inside, warns Charity, and keep your doors locked.  Tate doesn't understand.  Just do it! she begs, and leaves Tate standing there, puzzled.

Ep #1040 (1970PT[-1967]) - Angelexis - 'Bruno only wanted to cause you trouble. I'm sure he's sitting at home having a good laugh knowing how angry you MUST be.'

From "#1040/1041: Robservations 07/29/03: Quentin in Dutch With the Law"

It's all my fault, laments Angelique, Inspector, would you mind if I spoke to Quentin alone?  She leads Quentin into the foyer and says, there's no reason for you to be so angry, Bruno isn't worth it!  She closes the double doors on the other three and privately tells Quentin, it would all be over with in just a moment if you would just answer the Inspector's questions--you have nothing to fear, I'm sure of that--Bruno only wanted to cause you trouble--I'm sure he's sitting at home having a good laugh, knowing how angry you must be. He won't be laughing much longer, says Quentin, who bolts for the door.  "Quentin, no--don't!" Angelique insists, but he's gone. Angelique closes the door and grins, very proud of herself. She goes upstairs.
