VOICEOVER:For one woman, and one man,
this is a night of terror
at the great estate of Collinwood,
for Maggie Evans has been discovered.
Jeb knows she is working with Barnabas Collins
against him.
And a newly returned Willie Loomis
is trapped with her while trying to save her.
As they wait in the tower,
they hear a sound.
A sound which terrifies them both.
[heavy breathing]
Do you hear that?
It's breathing.
Who breathes like that?
Oh, Willie.
Maggie, what is it?
Willie!
It's outside the door!
[screaming]
[spooky music]
[heavy breathing]
[heavy breathing stops]
[screaming]
No! No!
[screams]
[suspenseful music]
[clicking]
Willie, the key.
What? Someone turned it.
Willie, it's a trap!
It's another trap!
No one's here.
We heard it, Maggie,
but no one's here.
You're sure?
Maggie, you've got a lot of explaining to do.
But now is not the time,
we gotta get out of here.
Willie, someone's waiting for us
at the end of the corridor, I know it.
We gotta take that chance,
and go through the west wing.
I don't understand this.
You've been giving me these injections for a week.
I don't know why they haven't taken effect yet.
Taken some effect,
but you can't know about it yet.
Barnabas, you must trust me.
Jeb could find your coffin.
He will never find it where it's hidden now.
No, it's you and Maggie that I'm worried about.
Living in that house.
Elizabeth knows that you're against them.
How soon will it be before they
before they find out that Maggie's
against them, as well.
It's a wonder that Jeb hasn't made
a move against you by now.
For one thing, it's best that
everything seem normal at Collinwood,
you know that.
And then, think of all the questions
Carolyn would ask if anything happened to me.
No, it's vital to them that
Carolyn doesn't know what happened.
And yet, she wouldn't believe us
even if we told her.
[door slams]
Willie.
Maggie.
Oh Barnabas.
Willie, what happened?
Barnabas,
they know about us.
They tried to k*ll me.
We heard the breathing.
We were locked in a room.
Oh, Julia.
Barnabas.
Maggie.
I never thought we'd get out of that house.
We crept down the back way.
Where were you?
In the tower room.
We were locked in the tower room.
Amy and Mrs. Stoddard--
You come with me.
I feel so weak.
I'll make it all right.
I can't believe Mrs. Stoddard
would do this.
JULIA: You know she's not herself.
Barnabas, I mean,
what goes on around this place?
I mean, I just don't understand any of it.
I mean, Maggie, when we were locked in that room,
she tried to explain it to me,
but it makes no sense.
I mean, does it, Barnabas?
Unfortunately, it does.
But Mrs. Stoddard and Amy
they like Maggie.
I don't care what they believe now.
So, they found out about Maggie.
I'd hoped for more time.
Barnabas, what do they got?
Some kind of monster or something?
I mean, when I heard that breathing.
So, he was going to k*ll again.
Even though it would reopen the investigations
about the murders.
What?
Yes, Willie the murders.
Hey Barnabas, what is it?
Don't even ask.
Just tell me how you escaped.
I wish I knew because I don't, Barnabas.
I mean, it was the weirdest.
I mean, I've been through lots,
but not anything like this before.
I mean, that thing behind the door,
and then the door startin' to give.
Then, the lights go out,
and suddenly the breathing stops.
Then,
a scream.
Some man screams.
Jeb.
Then, someone runs away.
Barnabas, you are not gonna believe this,
but the key turned in the lock,
but there was no one there.
I tell you, Barnabas,
no hand turned that key.
Someone must have.
No, 'cause I opened the door right away,
and there was no one there.
Whatever it was that let us out, was no more human than whatever
it was that was trying to get in.
I don't understand it.
You don't?
Barnabas, no wonder you sent for me.
No wonder.
All of you are in real trouble now.
BARNABAS: More trouble than you even realize.
What?
What did you mean?
Every morning, I go to the coffin.
Oh no, Barnabas.
My punishment for fighting them.
But it won't stop me.
You gotta tell me what's happening, Barnabas.
Maggie, she tried to explain it,
but it made no sense.
Now, you gotta tell me what's happening.
Yes, Willie you've gone through enough.
You deserve to know everything.
You'll feel much better
in a few moments, Maggie.
Oh, Julia.
I failed.
I failed all of you,
and Barnabas.
Quentin and I were talking,
Amy and Mrs. Stoddard must have overheard.
I'm afraid.
I'm so afraid.
Yes.
Yes, I know.
It's so strange,
the key turning in the lock.
Who?
Who could've done it, Julia, who?
Now, Maggie.
Maggie, you must try to forget.
I could never forget.
But you're safe here, Maggie,
you know that.
[knocking]
Maggie.
Oh, Barnabas.
Barnabas, I'll go downstairs,
and see Willie.
And Maggie, you try to get some rest.
Oh, Barnabas
so many strange things happened.
The terrible things they've done to you.
Barnabas, you're not to blame
for anything that happened.
How close I came to losing you.
What providence drove Jeb away?
Why did he change into human form?
Thank god he did.
I never thought that he would
change into his creature form again.
When the antiques are burned,
the only place he could change was gone.
They sanctified another room.
Sanctified.
They made another room incredibly evil.
Oh Maggie, we must find a way to stop this,
and we must do it quickly.
I can't have you in this danger.
[suspenseful music]
Oh Julia, this is terrible.
Barnabas being this way again.
Yes, yes I know, Willie.
But those injections,
until they work,
Barnabas is in danger.
More danger than he's ever been in his life.
And that's why we need your help so, Willie.
Willie?
Yeah, yeah, I heard you Julia.
Well, what is it then?
It's not that it doesn't mean
anything to me, what you just said.
Well, then what do you mean?
It's Roxanne.
I mean, she's just sittin'
in the Route motel, right this minute.
Tomorrow morning we're going to New York.
Well, you see that's where her family is.
Only family she's got, her sister named Sue Agatha.
And we're gonna get married,
Roxanne and me.
Oh, Willie.
Guess you never thought
anyone would love ol' Willie, huh?
Now, now, look at that.
Somebody does.
Yeah, somebody named Roxanne.
Oh, and she's so pretty Julia.
And she's so refined and gentile.
She's just a regular lady.
I mean, that surprises me, Julia.
It surprises me still.
Oh, Willie, Willie, I'm very glad for you.
I knew you would be, Julia.
But Willie, why can't you and Roxanne
find a nice house around here?
Julia, what I am trying to say to you
is I can't stay.
JULIA: You must, Willie.
I want to.
But when Rosanne met me,
I was working in this hospital
just like I was for you at Windcliff.
I mean, that's just what she thinks of me as doing.
I can't just go back to taking care of Barnabas.
I don't mean that unkindly, Julia.
I mean, Barnabas has helped me lots before.
I never told anyone about him,
but Roxanne she's got a mind of her own.
She's just packed full of questions.
And what am I gonna tell her I do for Barnabas?
Especially him being the way he is now.
I'm sorry Julia, I just can't stay.
No, you can't Willie.
You have your own life to lead.
Oh Barnabas, I knew you'd understand.
Well, I do more than you know.
I hope we're still friends.
Of course.
And I'm sorry, Barnabas, about what's been happening.
BARNABAS: I know you are.
Well, I guess I'd better go now.
You know, you can't keep a lady waiting.
Especially a lady like Roxanne,
she don't like waiting.
Guess I'll go upstairs say so long
to Maggie.
Please do.
Well?
I hope he and his Roxanne
will be very happy.
Barnabas you could've talked him into anything.
But he's right.
Barnabas you need help.
You need it more than you've ever
needed anything in your life.
Then, I will have to find it from someplace else.
Willie, I never even thanked you.
I didn't do nothin'.
But you tried.
You know, it's funny how things work out, huh.
I was real nervous about seeing you.
But you shouldn't have been.
I kept thinking all I had to do
was just look at Maggie,
and I'm gonna forget all about Roxanne.
But I didn't.
I'm glad.
Oh, so am I. I'm real glad.
Oh hey, I didn't mean that the way it sounded.
I know, I know.
Maggie,
I just hope that someday you're
half as happy as I am.
Maggie, you gotta watch out for Barnabas.
Now, I mean take care of him,
you and Julia.
'Cause I don't wanna feel bad about leavin' him.
He's all alone now.
I never knew how awful it is to be alone,
till I wasn't.
You can't find anyone else, Barnabas.
No one else can know your secret,
you know that.
I have gotten along well enough now
with the help of you and Quentin.
But when they start hunting for you
by day, and they will.
Who will, Dr. Hoffman?
I'm so glad that I was able to come by
while you were talking of me.
[dramatic music]
What do you want here, Jeb?
To see you.
Alone.
Julia.
No, Barnabas.
Well now, I didn't bring any silver b*ll*ts.
He'll be safe
for the moment.
Julia, please go.
Why don't you go in and look in
on Maggie Evans, doctor.
You won't be able to save him
no more than you'll be able to save yourself.
If that's all you came her to say, please go.
That's not all, Barnabas.
Now, I made a mistake with you.
I made a mistake making you a vampire.
It was childish of me.
Nicholas Blair told you that, I'm sure.
Yeah, but you've made a lot of mistakes too, Barnabas.
Like burning down the antique shop
was a very foolish move.
And making Maggie Evans a spy was another.
Forget Maggie Evans.
Never!
And we're gonna get Willie Loomis too, Barnabas.
That's gonna be part of your punishment.
And you know what?
I want you to be here when I marry Carolyn,
right here in this room,
unable to do anything.
I shall get you before then.
Before when?
You'd better do it very fast, Barnabas.
Because I'm gonna find where your coffin is hidden.
I'll see that you're finished before--
Before when?
Before morning?
Because you may not have much more time than that.
Get out.
Get out of here!
I know you caused what happened to me
in that hallway.
I know you did.
I don't know how you did it,
but you did.
Now, you think you can use
my weaknesses against me.
Well, you won't,
'cause I'm gonna get you, Barnabas.
I'm gonna get you!
[door slams]
I caused what happened in the hallway.
What did happen?
What were Jeb's weaknesses?
The wereworlf, he's terrified of him,
I know that.
The werewolf and
ghosts?
Don't know.
I don't know.
Barnabas, you're talking to yourself.
That's a bad sign.
Forget about me, Willie.
You have your own problems to think about.
Yeah.
Get out of here, Willie,
and forget you ever came here.
Go away before Jeb finds you, and suspects you.
He'll be so afraid he'll
he'll want to do something to you.
He will?
Well, okay Barnabas.
Okay, I mean, if you say so.
Now, get home safely back to your motel.
I will.
I will.
Barnabas, you don't think I'm terrible
for leaving, do ya?
BARNABAS: No, of course not, Willie.
I mean, because I feel bad about leaving Barnabas,
but I gotta life.
So long, Barnabas.
Goodbye Willie.
I tried to stop him from coming down here,
but I really think that he felt
that if he didn't leave now,
he never would.
Julia, whatever stopped Jeb from k*lling
Maggie and Willie was supernatural.
We must find out what it was.
Barnabas, what do you mean?
What supernatural thing could've stopped Jeb?
I don't know.
Julia, I just know that
in the book it says that the leviathans
are more afraid of the spirits of the dead
than any other people.
What is it Willie?
I can't do it, Barnabas.
I can't leave, not now,
not the way things are.
Roxanne, she'll just have to adjust that's all.
It's tough for me, Barnabas.
But I've come back.
[bells chiming]
[suspenseful music]
Maggie is safe for the moment.
What could've stopped Jeb from
going into the tower room?
I can't believe a ghost.
Do we have some ally in this house
that we don't know?
If I go to the tower,
perhaps I'll find something.
Some evidence of who was there besides Jeb.
[suspenseful music]
[whimpers]
Tell me where Barnabas's coffin is.
No!
Tell me!
No!
I'll k*ll you.
If you don't
Get away from me.
Stay away from me!
Who are you?
What do you want?
Who are you?!
