Synopsis

Teaser

The sounds of thunder shake the great walls of Collinwood, and echo across the land. But inside there is a moment's peace as in the eye of the hurricane. But soon to be broken, for Collinwood is a house with many secrets demanding to be known. And the secrets tie enemies together, as well as tear friends apart. While the ancient clock ticks on, knowing that time has its secrets too.

Carolyn Stoddard and Julia Hoffman are having a frosty confrontation. Carolyn accuses Julia of being jealous of her connection to Barnabas. Julia begs Carolyn to convince Barnabas to resume the treatments, but Carolyn has already been warned by Barnabas that Julia might try to make an ally of her. Julia threatens to tell Elizabeth Stoddard everything, but Carolyn calls her bluff, daring Julia to expose Barnabas' secret. At that moment, Carolyn notes the clock has not chimed. Unbeknown to her, Julia has hidden her notebook within the clock.

Act I

As Carolyn moves to check the clock, Julia breathes a sigh of relief as a knock at the great doors distracts her. It is attorney Anthony Peterson, who has come to see Roger. When Carolyn leaves to fetch her uncle, Julia invites Peterson into the drawing room. Roger comes downstairs and finds Julia examining the clock; Julia's nerves are on edge. Tony introduces himself to Roger. He represents Tim Newly, an employee who was injured at the cannery. As the two men engage in a heated argument over compensation, Julia retrieves her notebook from its hiding place... only to be caught by Carolyn.

Act II

Carolyn comes at Julia, ordering her to give her the notebook. At that moment, an angry Tony marches out of the drawing room. Julia stops him, and asks Tony for a ride into Collinsport. Carolyn protests, but Tony agrees and Julia departs with him. Incensed, Carolyn learns about Tony from Roger. She decides to go into town.

Act III

At Tony's law office, Julia paces anxiously while dogs howl outside. She learns that, much like Burke Devlin before him, Tony hates the Collins family for their immense wealth and influence. Deciding she can trust him, Julia gives Tony her notebook for safekeeping. But first she makes him promise not to read it. She warns him that he will hear lies about the book and about her. She goes on to secure a promise that Tony will turn the notebook over to the police in the event of her death.

Act IV

Later, Julia has taken a cab to return to Collinwood. As Tony begins to place her notebook in his office safe, Carolyn arrives. She claims she has come to apologize for Roger's behaviour, but Carolyn's focus is on the notebook. She openly flirts with him, and Tony reveals that he was once Carolyn's caddy at the golf course. Tony confronts Carolyn over her dislike of Julia and promptly locks the notebook in the safe. He grabs Carolyn by the arm, wanting to know the real reason behind her visit.

Memorable quotes

Julia Hoffman: Roger... (crying hysterically) Roger, no... (hysterical with fear) I wish it were Roger!

Tony Peterson: You don't know what I look like, and you never have... Come on, I was the lifeguard on the beach the day you wore your first bikini. And when you learned to play golf I was a caddy. Yours.
Carolyn Stoddard: It's impossible!
Tony Peterson: No, you couldn't see me for the golf bag then. Oh, I may have grown a bit taller, I certainly shave oftener, but still the same package.
