Barnabas Cape

[Tanis]

Did you notice that in pt, just before they went to future time, Barnabas had on his cape and had his cane, and when they changed time he had neither.  Julia was dressed the same, he has no cape on.  You would have thought he would have been dressed the same.

Well....it WAS PT, Tanis.....

Perhaps the Cape and Cane simply made "different choices"! 

[Tanis]

Maybe we should be thankful that all of his apparell didn't make other choices.

Like to have seen the look on Julia's face had he been standing there in his birthday suit.

Hey gang,

I was also wondering what happened to that inverness coat that Mr. B. was wearing in the PT Angelique room (only to magically disappear once the room reverted to "future" RT).

Wasn't Barnabas wearing that coat when he first "crossed over" into Parallel Time?  And, if he wasn't wearing it right after "offing" the great Schuyler Rumsom in RT, do you think that Barnabas had much difficulty in picking up an inverness coat at the men's clothing department at Brewster's Department Store in Parallel Time?  (Somehow, I find it hard to believe that even that fine men's clothing store just happened to have an inverness coat exactly in Barnabas' size, a 42 regular, I'd have to say.)

Of course, we might also wonder how Dr. Julia Hoffman just happened to get all of those scientific gizmos and gadgets on such short notice for her medical procedure to revive the winsome Roxanne Drew?

I mean, when Dr. H. and Mr. B. took over the phenomenal Dr. Eric Lang's so-called "life force exchange experiment" to create Adam, they merely had to schlep all of the scientific equipment from Dr. Lang's house over to the basement of the Old House.  Yet, in Parallel Time, Julia obviously had to go out and obtain all of that needed scientific equipment.

What the heck did the estimable Julia Hoffman do, make an order over the phone to Boston's "Mad Scientist's Equipment R' Us," operating 24/7 with overnight shipping for the convenience of all budding Dr. Frankenstein's in the greater New England area?

By the way, Julia should have "left" that ugly-#ss green outfit of hers back in Parallel Time, IMHO.

I think Julia borrowed all her equipment from Cyrus' labortory.  After, he no longer needed the equipment!

HobbiesDS,

Good point about Julia using the late Dr. Longworth's equipment and medical supplies.  But, my God!  If Dr. H. had mistakenly given some of Cyrus' "medicine" to Roxanne, the poor girl might have "morphed" into someone truly horrible and disgusting like, say, Madonna Ciccone or Susan Sarandon!

Oh my - now this is REALLY getting scary!!!

Franimal,

I think that a truly scary transformation would be to see the lovely and gentle Roxanne "morph" into either the always "classy" Cher (Bono?) or that dyspepsia-inducing, so-called "Queen of Perkiness," the unbelievably cloying Katie Couric.  Blah!!!!

Bob the Bartender, cantankerous curmudgeon!

[Raineypark]

Katie Couric grates on my nerves also.

Why do all the women newscasters have to look like Barbie?  Isn't news a serious enough topic to warrent REAL faces?  Like the ones on the women who report from the actual front lines?

I mean, really, wouldn't you be more likely to believe news from Iraq if you were getting it from Liz or Julia than from Maggie or (gawd help us) Angelique? 

[Tanis]

I agree, the majority of them look like super models.  Wonder what they look like when they roll out of bed in the morning.

Wonder how long Barn and Julia are going to wear those same clothes in this time period.  When do they take time to bathe etc.

Yes, Bob

Especially in Cher's "blonde" phase 
And I totally agree about Katie - yuck!

And another thing that comes to mind, where is Barnabas feeding?  No indication of that here either.  Must be getting a bit thirsty.

I was thinking the same thing Tanis.

  And what gets me even more wondering is why doesn't Barnabas just give Carolyn the bite if he wants to find out what the heck is really going on?   He never hesitated before to do this when he needed information badly, (ex. Beth in 1897)  yet now suddenly, he doesn't want to "harm her."
