Aristede straps and gags Quentin to a table, torturing him with a swinging blade pendulum and making it clear that Quentin will die if he doesn't give him the hand of Count Petofi.
Synopsis
- Collinwood before the turn of the century. For Quentin Collins this will be a night of unrelieved terror. He is the prisoner of two evil men in search of a mysterious hand with supernatural powers, and he will soon learn that he is to be the pawn in a game of life and death.
Quentin awakes to find himself tied up and his face has been restored. Aristede straps Quentin to a table and gags him as he sets a swinging blade pendulum in motion to torture Quentin. Aristede makes it clear that Quentin will die if he doesn't get the Hand. Barnabas gets the Hand for Julianka but at knifepoint later she takes it from Barnabas. Barnabas catches up with her in the woods and places her under his power. Aristede tells Angelique that Quentin will die unless she gives him the Hand.
Memorable quotes
- Quentin: You already got what you wanted from me.
- Aristede: Yes, but I seem to have misplaced it again.
- Angelique: I have gone to great pains to disassociate myself from you and to reestablish myself here in the household.
- Barnabas: I am almost amused.
- Aristede (to Angelique): Such an honor. My little puppeteer has come to see me.
- Aristede: I even checked the local newspapers, something I almost never do. News is so boring, don't you think?
