VOICEOVER (Thayer David): "Night at Collinwood ... but this is not the Collinwood as it exists in the present ... it is the Collinwood of 1796 ... for Barnabas Collins has been drawn back into the past. Forces from beyond the grave have brought him here to save the life of Victoria Winters. Today he will succeed or fail. In returning to the past, he has had to pay a penalty ... he has become what he was, and as a consequence he must endure wave upon wave of terror ... terror that will seemingly never end ..."
ANGELIQUE: Hello, Barnabas. Ben. So, we all meet again.
BEN: I knew you wouldn't just vanish. I knew it wouldn't be that easy.
ANGELIQUE: Ben, would you leave us alone, please? I'd like to speak to Barnabas.
BARNABAS: So it was you --
ANGELIQUE: -- who allowed you to view one of your victims. Yes. It was me.
BARNABAS: Why?
ANGELIQUE: To show you that I still have all of my powers. That's something I wanted you to know.
ANGELIQUE: I must remain in this century now as a punishment for mistakes I made in the past ...
ANGELIQUE: ... mistakes that I will never make again.
BARNABAS: How did you find out about me?
ANGELIQUE: You mean about your return to this century? Never mind. I found out.
ANGELIQUE: And I know wh you're here. You came to save your precious Victoria Winters ...
ANGELIQUE: ... from hanging.
BARNABAS: And I suppose you're here to stop it.
ANGELIQUE: No, Barnabas! I have the power to save Victoria Winters.
BARNABAS: Why do you want to save her life? You hate her.
ANGELIQUE: It's true. I never was very fond of Miss Winters.
ANGELIQUE: Because I will do it ... if you will make a bargain with me. I am forced to remain in this century. I am consigned to this time forever ... and I want you to stay here with me and never make any attempt to return to the century from which you came.
BARNABAS: Why do you want me to stay?
ANGELIQUE: Isn't it obvious? So we can be together.
BARNABAS: After all that's happened ... you still want me?
ANGELIQUE: I'm your wife. Husbands and wives should be together.
BARNABAS: You know I can't even pretend to love you.
ANGELIQUE: I don't ask that you pretend anything! I only ask that you stay here with me.
BARNABAS: If I stay in this time ... I would remain as I am.
ANGELIQUE: Yes. That would be quite a sacrifice. Are you willing to make it for your precious Miss Winters?
BARNABAS: Can I trust you?
ANGELIQUE: Can you save Victoria Winters alone? Then you have no choice. You must trust me. Will you stay with me here forever?
BARNABAS: Forever ...
ANGELIQUE: I'm waiting for your answer.
BARNABAS: You know it.
ANGELIQUE: Say it!
BARNABAS: Yes!
ANGELIQUE: You've made a wise decision, Barnabas. One that you shld have made many years ago ... when we first met.
BARNABAS: Tell me your plan.
ANGELIQUE: It's simple! Very simple ...
ANGELIQUE: Victoria Winters ... you are in my power now ...
ANGELIQUE: ... and I will never release you from my spell ...
ANGELIQUE: ... for if you should live, Barnabas would love you ...

VOICEOVER (Thayer David): "Dusk at Collinwood and Barnabas Collins will soon rise ... but he will find himself in the Collinwood of 1796, for he has been drawn backward in time to save Victoria Winters from hanging. He has seemingly failed in that task, for at midnight on the previous night she was hanged and pronounced dead. Everyone at Collinwood is mourning her death ... all but one: the witch who caused that death ... and who, even now, controls her from beyond the grave ..."
ANGELIQUE: Soon they will come for you … soon they will bury you never knowing the real truth.
ANGELIQUE: Then and only then will I release you from my spell.
ANGELIQUE: You will awaken and find yourself in your tomb … a tomb from which you can never escape. You will scream and cry out for help but no one will hear you. Then gradually – gradually you will die again and this death will be the most terrifying death of all.
ANGELIQUE: I said I would.
ANGELIQUE: No, Barnabas!
BARNABAS: You let Vicki go to the gallows and be hanged!
ANGELIQUE: She did have to undergo the hanging, yes. But when she was hanged, she was under my spell.
BARNABAS: You're lying ... she's dead!
ANGELIQUE: No, Barnabas ... she only seems to be dead. When I release her from my spell she will live again.
BARNABAS: And when will you do that?
ANGELIQUE: When you and I leave this place ... together.
BARNABAS: Do you actually think I will go away with you now?
ANGELIQUE: To save Victoria Winters' life? And if you refuse to trust me, she will die the most horrible death imaginable.
BARNABAS: No Angelique ... it is you who will face destruction! By fire ... the death you deserve!
ANGELIQUE: No ... no, please!
BEN: Burn, burn, burn!
BARNABAS: Take her ashes, Ben, and scatter them to the winds so that every trace of her is gone.
