[edit] Synopsis
- My name is Victoria Winters. The one person at Collinwood I have reason to fear is Roger Collins. He has discovered that I know his guilty secret and now Roger has discovered me alone in the house.
Roger releases Vicki after assuring her that resistance is futile. He accuses her of thinking he killed Malloy; he says he would have killed her already if he had. Roger confesses to Vicki. He reminds her of the events of 46 and admits that he left at 10:30PM to meet Bill Malloy at Lookout Point. He claims to have lied and forced her to lie (71) in order to protect Elizabeth from the shame of another trial. He tells her that he saw Malloy, and it was at that point that he lost the pen she found (75).
At the Old House, David talks to Josette's portrait. He recaps to her Vicki's belief that Roger killed Malloy. He asks if Malloy's with Josette; he needs to speak with him.
Together with Burke, Carolyn relates the events of 101 and 100. Burke and Carolyn agree not to discuss the family feud.
David begs Josette for assistance. Matthew lurks around the Old House and catches David, who tells him he's talking to ghosts (Josette and a younger woman). David tells Matthew that Vicki knows that Malloy was murdered and that she knows who did it. David says it was his father but that's not what Vicki said. He also tells him Vicki hasn't gone to the police or told anyone else. After Matthew and David leave, Josette's portrait comes to life.
Carolyn tells Burke that Roger is interested in Vicki and relays the behavior which led to this conclusion. After a bit of talk, Burke learns that Carolyn told Roger that Vicki knew about the pen. Burke, concerned for Vicki's safety, has to make a phone call.
Roger tells Vicki that when he found Malloy he was already dead. Burke calls Vicki and he warns her of the danger and sends a cab for her. Vicki lies and tells Roger that it was Maggie on the phone.
Burke tells Carolyn that he has a pressing business meeting and ends his date with her.
Vicki sneaks out of Collinwood to catch Burke's cab.

[edit] Background information and notes
[edit] Continuity and mistakes
- When David speaks to the portrait of Josette, he refers to her as his "great-great-grandmother". As the series evolved, this would prove not to be the case. David's great-great-grandmother would have been Harriet Collins.
