DARK SHADOWS 595

  DARK SHADOWS 595   Stokes about Leona: “There’s something curious about that woman.”     Adam to Stokes not asking him questions now. “That seems rather strange. You are the one that always asked the most questions.”    “If this experiment succeeds---if I am allowed to live again through that creation, I will destroy all these people. All of them. All of them.”   Grayson. The narration talks about the house being shrouded in darkness. A cold night wind.   It is 3am and the narration also reveals Leona to be one of the living dead.   Different reprise. Here, we see the clock up close. He didn’t do that in the reprise. The shots are also different. For one thing, Leona’s hair is less straight and more curly and in this reprise after Adam declares her providing the life force for his mate, she looks directly at Barnabas where in the cliffhanger last time, she just stared at nothing, weirdly. And otherworldly. Here, she ...

DARK SHADOWS 594

  DARK SHADOWS 594 “Carolyn was dead. And now she’s alive. How is that possible? How?”     Humbert. THE SAME STILL of the house! Argh!   As Barnabas prepares to tell all, I noticed a long scratch on the doors.   Carolyn asks why he is staring at her like that and if he can speak. He nods no. That’s as funny as DS can get! I think. He comes in and says, “It’s impossible,”   but last time he thought maybe Julia had it wrong, that she was not dead. She asks what’s impossible.     She tells him she only fainted. He wonders what they will do now and she says, “I don’t know.”     Barnabas leaves and has a voice over. “She…she’s alive. How is it possible?”       Blair acts like a TOMORROW PERSON some six or seven years too early as he tells Adam, “I have special powers.”     This is how Carolyn is alive.   Adam: “I don’t understand your powers.”     He will supply...

 DARK SHADOWS   593 “If I ever get out of here, the whole world is going to know what Barnabas is.”   “Carolyn Stoddard was involved in the experiment and she died.”   “Died?”   “Yes  and now Adam will go to Collinwood to destroy the family.”     KLS. Long and different reprise. Slightly different dialog. When Barnabas hits the staircase this time, it shakes. Different musical cues at times (Julia seeing Carolyn gone). New material after reprise. Julia actually comes downstairs   Julia, at the bed, calls to Barnabas.   Julia actually comes downstairs after calling to him and then the theme music and opening.     She tells him what happened. A new catch phrase for the show as he says, “That’s impossible.”    Okay witches and vampires are but not this? It can’t disappear like that he says. Julia utters yet a new catch phrase, “I KNOW.”    She was up there 15 minut...
