DARK SHADOWS 481

  DARK SHADOWS 481   “You have no idea of her powers. None.”   Lara. Reprise but is it different? I think so. Julia voice over. Barnabas and Lang hear what Julia is doing. Barnabas calls to her, “Julia! Remember. Remember someone.”   WHAT? Eric has to read Frid’s line to him, “Dave, Julia, remember Dave Woodard.”       Barnabas tells Lang to put the gun away. Barnabas then remembers his line and says the same thing. She puts the phone down and opens the door, telling Barnabas he always wins. He tells her they can always checkmate each other. Julia says, “I seldom stop you.”   Eric Lang tries to convince her about his experiment. Lang says, “Think Julia…” and then…there is a kind of jump in the DVD or in time or something is cut.   It is the first of a few more jumps or skips. As Julia turns his back on him, he takes the gun out and Barnabas sees this as he tries to convince Julia not to say anything. She makes him give his word not to have Lang kill anyone else. Lang

  480 “I try to be honest.” “I like that. It’s a quality I admire in people.” So say the two biggest liars in DS history!   “I’m trying to reach into the darkness. I’m trying to create. I plan to transmit the life force of Barnabas into this creature I’ve created.”   Lara. Lang’s house. Different reprise. Barnabas and Jeff seem to have hair cuts since the last episode’s cliffhanger! Lang counts, “1…2…” and then the theme. Barnabas is told he can die and he says that he takes some pleasure to think that he is that human. Barnabas flubs when insisting they ask Julia for help.       He tells Lang Julia will help them because, “…she cares for me…unfortunate but she does.”    Eric says, “Yes, I know that.”   Barnabas tells Eric that Julia will keep their secrets. He flubs, “She can…she will…”    Barnabas will not allow him to kill Jeff Clark. He goes back to the phone. Frid keeps reading the cue cards or teleprompter. They go through the same thing all over again. Barn
