Then & Now
John: Elizabeth seems oddly cheerful this morning after all of yesterday's activities.
Christine: It was definitely out of character with or without the circumstances, but especially with Bill Malloy missing, the possibility that the girls saw a dead man in the water, and her suspicions about Matthew. The lady was practically giddy. It was unsettling. I guess everyone reacts to trauma differently.
John: Why would she be motivated to make up a lie about Bill Malloy's whereabouts? Serves her right that Matthew spilled the beans right after.
Christine: I think she didn't want concerns from workers at the plant to interfere with her unofficial inquiries into his whereabouts with Sheriff Patterson. Since she confirmed there had been many questions about his absence, she may have thought that they would eventually lead to a formal report to the sheriff's office, and the Collins family would then end up having to fend off reporters.
John: Matthew provides some exposition regarding the first Mrs. Collins going over the cliff at Widow's Hill.
Christine: Odd that he knows so much about the family history though isn't it? With Elizabeth's warning to Vicki in Episode 13 that Matthew can be quite violent if he feels Liz is threatened, it would be reasonable for her to question his reasons for pushing Bill Malloy back out to sea when he discovered him.
Shadows on the Wall
John: David's latest crystal ball prognostications: Someone in Collinwood is going to try to kill Vicki!
Christine: I wonder if he was seeing himself or Matthew in the crystal ball when he foresaw that event.
It's been a while since we've seen the dining area. David only had a slice of toast with butter and jam and a glass of milk for breakfast. Vicki cleared his plate before he could finish his toast but made sure to pour herself more coffee. I guess she needed it to get through lessons with him.
Also, just want to document that Liz has on a different brooch today since you've indicated an interest.
A few other moments for your consideration…
