Charles realizes that the first time he drew Amanda is the first day that she can remember.
Synopsis
- The turn of the century at the great house at Collinwood, and this night a full moon shines over the estate, and to Quentin's astonishment, he does not turn into the wolf that walks as a man, but he still fears that this is some cruel joke played by the gods. But in his room there awaits a surprise that may or may not explain what has happened.
Quentin confronts Tate with the changed portrait, but the painter can offer no explanation.
Trask, still frustrated with Charity's possession by Pansy Faye, locks her in her room, where she vows to become Mrs. Quentin Collins.
Tate finally has the chance to talk with the mysterious Amanda Harris, and is amazed to discover that she has no memory prior to March 11th, 1895, and that she apparently cannot remember her own birthdate. Tate departs suddenly, responding to an irrepressible urge to return to his studio, where he finds that his first sketch of her is also dated March 11, 1895.
Amanda is entranced as Quentin plays his theme for her, and they dance in the drawing room, before Trask jealously breaks up the romantic interlude, vowing that Amanda shall never again be alone in a room with Quentin Collins.
