David tales the wrong path, but it's Matthew who is lost.

A man in peril can become a dangerous foe, and for David, finding Matthew all of the sudden suspicious of him put him in jeopardy. It's obvious that his hours are numbered, but how it will all end becomes a great mystery. I've seen this storyline on soap operas over and over again where a kidnapper seems like he (or she) is about to get away with their crimes but a twist leave them to their true fate. Meanwhile Maggie entertains the beautiful stranger in the diner who questions her about the Collins family and Maggie feels her in on recent events. When Sam comes in, he doesn't see the blond lady from Phoenix at first, but when he does, he has a sense of de ja vu.

While Sam and Maggie haven't been French burner in sometime, they returned to that with this episode that has Sam confiding in his daughter. Once again, it is the gothic Intrigue and new mystery that makes this episode stand out, and it's nice to have a series of episodes that all in a row are nearly excellent. David gets the last scene, and it is obvious that he is going to do something heroic. Diana Millay's character's name is identified in the credits, and the mention of her living in Phoenix is an ironic metaphor.

Plenty of menace

Warning: Spoilers
Episode 124 is fairly good in that it focuses on the menace inherent in the narrative. The Victoria kidnapping storyline has been dragged out way too long now, but there's something irresistable in the sight of David continuing to plot and react in unexpected ways to events.
