How much land is there?MAN:
Oh, only about 200 acres.Hey, look up there.
lt's really incredible.
You were around for all those years...
...and l didn't even know you.
You wouldn't have liked me then.
l was mean and surly.
TRACY:
lt's gonna rain.
l still can't believe it's really Collinwood.
l can't even see the house from here.
Here it comes. l'm gonna put the top up.
What do you wanna bet l turn into
one of those women in House and Garden?
Yeah. l can see it now.
Mrs. Quentin Collins,
in her fashionable jeans...
...sitting at her 18th-century
rosewood desk...
...making out menus for the week.
We have a housekeeper, you know that?
Oh, great. l'll bet she looks
just like Mrs. Danvers.
l'm sure she does.
That solves one problem.
She can probably do everything...
...and l'll just sit around
arranging flowers all day.
And loving me.
l don't think l'm going in there.
QUENTlN:
Yes, you are.
Can you believe it?
lt's all ours.
WOMAN:
Mr. and Mrs. Collins.
Welcome to Collinwood.
l'm Carlotta Drake.
Thank you, Miss Drake.
How do you do?
Mrs. Stoddard, before her death,
had tea served here every afternoon.
That's one tradition we won't keep.
Oh, no. We can't let the house down.
[PLAYlNG PlANO]
We can call Claire and Alex
and invite them for tea in the drawing room.
With the lord of the manor.
Did you tell the Jenkins
we'd be here today?
Carlotta, did you tell the Jenkins
we'd be here?
No. l'm sorry.
l didn't know that's what you wanted.
- Let me show you the rest of the house.
- All right.
CARLOTTA:
Collinwood was builtby Joshua Collins in the late 1600s.
Of course, there have been many changes
As a child, l used to hide here.
So many parties in those days,
and the guests were so elegantly dressed.
And the candles were always burning.
TRACY:
You lived here as a child?
CARLOTTA:
Yes, my mother was the housekeeper.
QUENTlN:
What's up there?
Oh, nothing you'd be interested in now.
ls that the tower l saw from the outside?
CARLOTTA:
Yes.
The master bedroom is this way.
lt has an excellent view
of the front grounds.
QUENTlN:
Quite a collection.
l've got a feeling my ancestors
wouldn't have bought my work.
TRACY:
Quentin's paintings are very abstract.
You're a painter. How interesting.
QUENTlN:
ls she one of the family?CARLOTTA:
Yes, she is.Her name is Angelique Collins.
She died in 1810.
Wow, she's beautiful, isn't she?
Carlotta, l think this is my favorite room.
The view is really incredible.
CARLOTTA:
l've prepared a salad for dinner.
Shall l serve it here?
TRACY:
Well, yes, would you?
That's our housekeeper.
She makes me feel like
she invited us here.
lt's beautiful, isn't it?
l got a feeling l'm gonna do better work
here than l've ever done before in my life.
TRACY:
lt's almost like livingin a museum, isn't it?
Quentin?
Darling, what's the matter?
Darling, what's wrong?
What are you thinking about?
Nothing.
l was just daydreaming, l guess.
Well, l think we're very naughty.
We should have tried to call the Jenkins.
They'll understand.
QUENTlN:
TRACY:
Well, l think l am, if you are.
QUENTlN:
That's something.
l don't know why...
...l almost feel like l've come home again.
Well, that's good.
MAN 1 [lN VOlCE-OVER]: Angelique Collins,
you have been condemned as a witch...
...and you must die as a witch.
Let your soul be returned
to the pits of darkness forevermore.
For thou knowest we do
what we must...
...for thy sake, in thy name. Amen.
Prepare yourself for eternity, witch.
