Joe is suspicious of Professor Stokes and believes he is hiding Adam.

Synopsis[]

On this night, Victoria Winters has left Collinwood, for she fears she is in danger there. She sleeps in the Evans cottage, where she assumes she is safe, but she is not, for as she sleeps, a ghost has entered her life, the ghost of a woman bent on destruction.

Maggie enters Victoria's bedroom and screams. She tells Victoria that she saw a ghost, a woman with long blonde curls and a strange dress. Victoria recognizes the description as Angelique. Victoria realizes that Angelique is trying to make her have the dream. Victoria goes to Professor Stokes for advice. Joe is suspicious of Stokes and believes he is hiding Adam. Joe shows up at Stokes’ home with a gun and chases Adam.

Memorable quotes[]

Professor Stokes: Forgive me if I sound callous, Miss Winters, but you're behaving like a moonstruck schoolgirl.

Professor Stokes (to Joe): Am I so formidable that you find it necessary to bring a gun?

Professor Stokes: And these somewhat tenuous facts make you think I'm hiding someone. [Laughs] Really, Mr. Haskell, you're in the wrong profession. You ought to be writing detective novels.

Bloopers and continuity errors[]

  • In the previous episode, there seemed to be an agreement that Jeff would stay at the Evans cottage one more night, but there is no sign of him when Maggie screams at the ghost of Angelique or when Joe comes over and Maggie asks him to stay the night.
  • In Act I, when Maggie is telling Joe about seeing the ghost of Angelique, there is a squeaking noise off-stage. A squeaking sound is also heard at the beginning of Act II when Victoria is saying she thought she was safe at the Evans cottage as well as when Joe talks about Professor Stokes.
  • Since Victoria had just gotten out of the bed, it should have looked slept in; instead the bed was made, and Victoria had to pull down to covers to get back in.
  • When Adam moves to the sofa, a boom mic appears above Professor Stokes. Another boom mic appears in the shot as Professor Stokes talks with Vicki.
  • When Professor Stokes opens the door to his living room and lets Victoria and Joe in after they ring the buzzer (and later when Joe returns), the couple enters immediately from the living room door. However, in previous episodes, it has been shown that there is a hallway or vestibule between the living room door and the outer door to Stokes's apartment, and characters have been seen ringing the buzzer from that outer door.
  • In Act III, when Professor Stokes stands and tells Victoria she is behaving like a "moonstruck schoolgirl," a boom mic shadow moves across him.
  • Vicki accidentally calls Joe "Jeff" when they are leaving Professor Stokes's apartment.
