 I rate this episode ★★★★★ for EXCELLENT. If there's 1 word to describe Elspeth Eric's writing for this Drama-Mystery, it would be "Compelling!" There were 4 types of Love in this tale: Friendship Love, Family Love, Self-Love, and Romantic Love. There was compassion, companionship, affection, and a lot of mystique in every scene; like it was an episode of a soap opera series. The dialogue at the 32-minute mark was definitely an eye-opener for me. Another way to Title this would be "Wild Talent" or "The Great House" or "The Tide Turned" because those phrases were used repeatedly in this CBSRMT episode. The sound effects of the seagulls, the labrador retriever barking, the ocean waves on an Antilles beach, doors being knocked/tapped in the great house, and tea cups clinking were perfect to hear. And so was the music. Peaceful melodies in ACT-1, sympathetic tunes in ACT-2, and mystique tracks in ACT-3 were delightful to hear to make this story a classic mystery. In his Prologue, E.G. Marshall brings up the topic of Modern; in which it wouldn't have existed without magic and superstition from the past. In ACT-1, he draws us into the story where it's on Antilles beach in the Caribbean island. He draws us again that all talent is wild. In ACT-2, after explaining what happened in the previous act, he questions us CBSRMT fans if we ever been to a perfect house where someone who lived there was unhappy? (It's like saying have you met someone who's going through hellish times while living in paradise) In ACT-3, he asks the fans again, "Does a wild talent live in each of us?" Of course, yes. We use what talent we posses in order to be successful. But more importantly, in his Epilogue, he mentions 19th Century novelist/poet/playwright Gertrude Stein who asked, “What is the answer?â€ she asked, and when no answer came she said: “Then, what is the question?â€ (I wonder is Elspeth Eric was a fan of hers) And finally, our captivating cast: Robert Dryden (as Benedict), Jada Rowland (as Nikki), and Teri Keane (as Monica). SPECIAL NOTE: if you have the CBSRMT Episode Guide Book, you will notice a typo in the book where it says Mandel Kramer playing the role of Benedict. Jada Rowland is my #1 favorite actress of CBSRMT and this is one of her best parts. Robert Dryden & Teri Keane's acting was mesmerizing to me, especially when they converse when it was dead silent in their scenes. Not only do I highly recommend this story to everyone, I also highly recommend to check out #1288-THE SAND CASTLE; another Drama-Mystery that also takes place on the beach, also starring Jada Rowland, and also written by Elspeth Eric. Until next time…pleasant dreams. =^D
