Nicholas opens the coffin in the basement, revealing that Angelique is now a vampire.
== Synopsis ==
: The residents of Collinwood on this night are terrified, for Victoria Winters has disappeared. One man is about to find her, but this discovery will place her in an even greater danger.
Adam reports that Carolyn has begun bringing him food again; Adam says he lied to her and he doesn't like lying. Nicholas suggests that they move Victoria to another location, his house.
Nicholas tells Carolyn that Adam didn't have anything to do with Victoria's disappearance. Jeff tells Carolyn that Tom has received a transfusion and didn’t have any enemies.
Nicholas plants doubts in Jeff's mind about Barnabas. Carolyn brings Adam some food, but tells him she cannot stay, as there may be news of Victoria. Adam tells her he understands, and after Carolyn leaves he lets Victoria out of the closet. Victoria is weak and tired, and asks him again why he has taken her. He tells her he has a reason, but will not tell her. He drugs her food, and she passes out. Nicholas carries her out of the room to an unknown destination. She awakens in a new place.
Nicholas gives Angelique permission to rise because he has further plans for her.

== Background information and notes ==
=== Production ===
* There is a necessary edit toward the end of the episode to show Vicki sleeping at Nicholas's house, shown immediately after we see Nicholas taking her from Adam's room.
* There are no cast or crew members credited.
=== Story ===
* INTERNAL MONOLOGUE: Adam: Is Victoria still alive?; Victoria: Where am I?
* TIMELINE: Nicholas will take Victoria away tomorrow night. It was earlier this evening (i.e. the early hours of this day) when Barnabas told Carolyn that Adam came to the Old House. Victoria is said to have been missing for an hour.
== Bloopers and continuity errors ==
* In Act II, when Nicholas sits down on the foyer table and also when he stands back up, it squeaks (as it did in the previous episode when Jeff sat on it).
* Roger Davis mispronounces 'transfusion' as 'transfoo-fusion'.
* In a scene in Adam's hiding place, the camera wobbles and a studio light can be seen.
* In episode 528, Nicholas mocked Cassandra for wanting him to help her drug Vicki so she would have the dream curse dream, saying "I am much too talented to spend my time drugging drinks." But he does exactly that in this episode, giving Adam a drug to make Vicki sleep.
* Nicholas says to Adam that it is dark outside and safe to take Vicki away, but the establishing shot of Collinwood for this act immediately seen before showed Collinwood in daylight.
* Nicholas insists that Adam not leave the room to go with him with Vicki because, as Nicholas claims, if Carolyn discovered Adam wasn't in the room, she would know he would have had something to do with Vicki's disappearance. However, he then tells Adam to leave the room and meet him in the woods later. As well, his instructions are very vague--he tells Adam to wait "several hours" and then to meet him in the woods near the Old House. That seems a very imprecise time to schedule a meetup, as well as a pretty vague location.
* The topmost, darker blue pillow which Victoria is sleeping on in the west wing seems to have followed her to the bed she is seen on in Nicholas's house at the end of the episode.
