[edit] Synopsis

My name is Victoria Winters. My past is still a mystery to me, but my future is bound to the great house on Widows' Hill; to a boy whose eyes brim with fear and torment; to the strange sounds and lonely echoes of a small room filled with the memory of long dead years.

A restless Vicki is awakened by Roger and summoned to the Drawing Room. David asks if Roger hurts and tells him he's sorry. Roger is cruel, but apologizes and says his arm hurts a bit, but is just sprained. David knows that someone fooled with the brakes and Roger tells him not to eavesdrop. He refuses to answer David's questions, and orders him to bed. David recants his apology and almost wishes his father dead. Victoria and David talk about David's statements and the accident. David asks what will happen if it wasn't an accident; Vicki tells him the person who did it would be found and tried. Vicki admits she'd tell if she knew who did it. David likens Vicki to Roger: They both want to send him away. Roger is unconcerned with David's emotional state and recaps recent events. Roger twists Vicki's statements into admissions of Burke's guilt. Vicki, Roger, going to Burke, etc. David is disturbed. Vicki again finds David in her room. David is upset that Vicki's going into town and that Roger won't just buy a new car like David has to now, since he's wrecked his model. David again declares his hatred for Roger, who in fact deserves it. Vicki points out that David should be among the lists of problems that Roger has; Roger pshaws it. David has a bleeder valve, and he hides it in his dresser.
