Synopsis

My name is Victoria Winters. The surf pounds at the foot of Widows' Hill like the erratic beat of a frightened heart. A beat that is magnified in the minds of those who can find no relief from mounting tension.

Roger receives a call from Burke about their mystery meeting; Vicki and Roger discuss David's homicidal tendencies. They also talk about art and Vicki drops that she's having dinner with Maggie and Sam. Roger calls Mrs. Johnson, Bill's housekeeper, looking for him. Bill tells Sam to meet him, Burke, and Roger at Roger's office at 11 PM. He also tells him that, if need be, he'll destroy him. Roger is furious and threatens to get Bill fired. Vicki overhears more than a little. Vicki puts two and two together to get 5; she believes Roger doesn't want her to meet Sam (whom she correctly posits is the man she met on the beach in Episode #5) because Roger's afraid Sam knows something about her past. Roger leaves at 10:25. At 11:00, Burke, Sam, and Roger (who arrived in that order) await Malloy.

Memorable quotes

• Roger (describing Vicki): "Pollyanna. Miss Pollyanna in a world of pain."

• Roger (looking at David's art): "Collinwood with all its dark shadows, he's captured it all right."
• Vicki: David will kill me if I lost this.
• Roger: My son will probably kill you anyway.

Continuity and mistakes

Roger's on the phone but something on the right of the set is moving.

Vicki and Roger discuss the state of the world and how you cannot trust anyone.

David's picture is of Collinwood.

Bill Malloy points his finger into Sam and it really seems to hurt the actor.

Bill reveals all about the accident.

Roger means to say "Be there" but says, "Be here." when he's at Collinwood as he says this and should be talking about his office.

The grandfather clock ticks LOUDLY as if it is a bomb.

Roger tells Vicki as a child he was full of love and joy and a zest of living..and that he was wrong to feel that. He knows the world is a hostile place. She tells him he is wrong. He tells her not to curtail David's instinctive grasp of the truth and maybe his world view is correct. Roger calls Vicki a pollyanna.

Vicki wants to foster David's artistic talents. Roger calls it a fantasy.

Liz does not seem to know the truth about the accident. But she suspects.

Vicki knows David's hatred of her and his threats but she takes a piece of his artwork out of his room without his consent!
