Beth’s lying, of course. They will meet in one hour at the cottage. Judith stares at Quentin, who leaves. Judith questions Barnabas. Dirk watches them. Judith wants Barnabas to check in on Jamison, he admires Barnabas so and Judith adds her admiration to that. She's glad that he is staying with them. Barnabas tells her it makes him happy, too. Barnabas leaves.
