Well, assuming that I haven't lost track again: (I don't watch live, I watch
off videotapes), today's episodes should have been:

Episode 832
Trask watches his watch until Quentin experiences the pains of
transformation, but... this time, Quentin says, it's a little
different than usual. Suddenly, he announces that the pain is
gone. Trask doesn't like this turn of events at all. He decides
his watch must be wrong, and runs upstairs to see if the moon has
really risen or what's going on. Quentin stares at his hands,
amazed that they haven't sprouted fur. He's still doing this
when Trask returns. Quentin says he can tell just by looking at
Trask that the moon has indeed risen. Trask is not happy;
Quentin is. He asks to be let out. Trask says no way, he can't
do that because Quentin is the werewolf. Quentin facetiously
conveys the message that Trask has no proof of this now, and
would never get anyone to believe him if he were to try to tell
the story. Trask finally gives in and lets Quentin out of the
cell, though he's really, really not in a good mood about this.
At the Collinsport Inn, Amanda tells Tim that she wants to get
out of Collinsport, and she wants nothing further to do with
Trask. Tim tries to flatter her into going along with his plans.
Meanwhile out in the woods, Trask decides to get rid of his
signed confession to Minerva's murder once and for all by burying
it.
At Collinwood, Petofi tells Quentin he'd like to have an audience
with him. Quentin is opposed to this idea, so he tries to
strangle Petofi. Petofi's right hand easily breaks the
stranglehold, then he straightens his tie and states that Quentin
is really hot blooded, but oh so very charming. After that
compliment, Quentin begins to suspect that Petofi might have had
something to do with his not transforming tonight, so they go
into the drawing room to discuss the matter over drinks. The
drinking part goes really well, but the discussing part doesn't,
due to the fact that Petofi chooses not to reveal anything
important. Quentin finally decides that Petofi really doesn't
know anything about what happened - or what didn't happen,
tonight. Petofi's response to that is just you wait and see what
happens next.
Amanda and Tim are still arguing over whether or not she's going
to move into Collinwood. Tim tries to use the luxuries of
Collinwood to persuade her. She replies that she doesn't care
about luxuries, well, at least that's not all she cares about.
To prove this point she rips a diamond bracelet off of her arm
and throws it on the floor, then she throws her arms around Tim
and says she just wants to go away with him. He says they will
go away, after they do what he set out to do, then he picks up
the bracelet and tells her not to throw such valuable stuff
around like that. Ultimately the bracelet works to convince
Amanda to at least consider going along with Tim's wishes.
Later, Amanda is at Collinwood telling Trask more stories about
the man in New York. Trask paws at her and offers to go to the
Inn to get her belongings. She makes up a bunch of excuses and
eventually succeeds in getting him to let her take care of that
herself. Trask leaves to get a room ready for her, and she goes
to the phone and calls Tim. She tells him that she really,
really, really, really, doesn't want to live at Collinwood. She
hangs up abruptly when she hears Trask returning to the drawing
room. She is surprised however, to discover that it's not Trask,
but rather hot blooded and charming Quentin entering the room.
He plunges into a heavily romantic conversation which lasts about
two minutes, then he excuses himself and leaves the room. Amanda
runs to the phone, calls Tim, and tells him that all of the
sudden she's changed her mind, and she really, really, really,
really wants to live at Collinwood. Trask enters the room just
as she's hanging up, and she tells him she was talking to the
manager of the Inn, who's bringing her luggage right over.
Quentin goes upstairs, and gets himself depressed thinking about
how under normal circumstances, having met Amanda during a full
moon, she'd be dead by now. He decides he's just got to figure
out what happened to prevent the transformation tonight. He goes
into his room and notices his portrait sitting there, covered.
He uncovers it, and he's horrified to discover that unlike
himself, his image in the portrait has in fact transformed into
the werewolf.

Episode 833
Charles is at his studio looking with concern and confusion at
his portrait of Amanda. He puts it down, then Quentin shows up.
He enters without bothering to knock, narrowly escapes tripping
on the step, then starts throwing accusations around. He accuses
Charles of painting a portrait of a wolf. Charles says no way,
all he painted was a portrait of Quentin. He shows Quentin
sketches of the portrait to prove it. Quentin looks confused and
upset when he looks at the sketches (undoubtedly because he knows
he's really a lot better looking than this), and he asks more
questions. Charles mentions Petofi, and Quentin says now they're
getting somewhere. Charles mentions that Charity once thought
she saw a wolf in this particular portrait, but it was probably
her imagination then, like it's Quentin's imagination now.
Quentin informs Charles that they are going to Collinwood right
now to look at the portrait and see just who's imagining what.
Charity/Pansy descends the Collinwood staircase, looking rather
bored, until she hears Quentin's music coming from the drawing
room. She checks her makeup and goes into the room, but she's
quite unhappy to discover that it's Amanda who's playing the
gramophone. She tells Amanda she has no right to be listening to
"his" music. Amanda informs Charity that she meant no harm, and
since she lives here she was just making herself at home. Upon
learning that Trask invited Amanda to move in, Charity beckons
Trask to the drawing room (at the top of her lungs.) Trask comes
in and tells Charity it's true, Amanda is here at his request,
then he drags Charity up to her room. She screams for Quentin to
help her as she's being hauled up the stairs, and Amanda is left
in the drawing room to wonder how she ever got into this
situation.
Quentin and Charles arrive in Quentin's room, where the portrait
is still in its lupine form. Charles doesn't get it. Quentin
says then he'll ask Petofi; he should know. Charles says that's
fine with him. Quentin warns him not to say anything about this
to anybody. Charles leaves, and Quentin covers the portrait
because he's getting really tired of looking at it.
Trask is back in the drawing room telling Amanda that Charity is
the poor unfortunate victim of some devilish scheme. He sees
Charles coming downstairs and tells Amanda he's got to leave for
a minute but he'll be right back. He asks Charles what he's
doing here. Charles says he came because he's ready to paint the
portrait of Charity. Trask says there's been a change of plans
about that, because Charity isn't quite herself these days. He
suddenly gets a light bulb over his head, and says there is
someone else who Charles could paint instead. He takes Charles
into the drawing room and introduces him to Amanda. Charles
tries to be calm, and he admits that he's seen Amanda at the Inn.
Trask tells Amanda that Charles is going to paint her portrait.
He then leaves so artist and model can get to know each other.
Charles approaches Amanda and asks her if she feels like they've
seen each other before. She says no, not really. She remembers
Count Petofi mentioning Charles's name before though. Charles
says he's got a lot of questions for her, starting with when she
was born. She doesn't like this question, but she says she has
this weird feeling that she actually should try to tell him why.
Upstairs, Trask and Charity are arguing about Amanda's presence
in the house. Charity says either Amanda goes, or she does.
Trask says she wouldn't dare. Charity says just watch me. Trask
leaves after getting tired of listening to her, then she starts
packing.
In the drawing room, Amanda admits to Charles that she doesn't
know anything about herself. She explains that all she remembers
is a day when she saw a newspaper lying on the street. She says
she picked the paper up and tried desperately to find a clue in
it as to who she was, or what life had been like before that date.
Charles asks her what date that was, and she tells him March 11,
1895. When he hears this, Charles says he's got to go right this
minute, he can't explain, but he'll be back. He leaves the house,
Amanda follows him to the foyer, and she wishes she hadn't done
that when Charity comes downstairs and talks mean to her again.
She says she's leaving, but she'll be back, and she warns that
Amanda will be very unhappy here.
Charles goes to his studio and searches through his sketches,
until he finds the very first one he ever sketched of Amanda.
The date on it is March 11, 1895. He wonders if this is just a
coincidence, or what. He tells himself he's got to get his mind
off of all this, so he decides to try sketching something else
besides Amanda for a change.
Quentin enters the drawing room while Amanda is still there. She
tells him she was waiting for Charles Tate, and Quentin instantly
tells her that Charles is all wrong for her. He starts up the
gramophone, and Amanda tells him that she's heard that this is
his song. He asks her to dance, she accepts, then he ends up
reciting the words to the song to her. Before he finishes he
decides this is getting boring, so he kisses her instead. Trask
enters the drawing room in time to witness this, and he objects
to it, loudly. Quentin takes the blame, and Trask tells him to
just shut up and get out. Quentin kisses Amanda's hand and exits,
then Trask angrily tells Amanda that she will never be alone with
Quentin again.
Charles is painting a still life, and he decides it needs
something more than he's got on the table. He paints a vase in
amongst the fruit and plants, then looks up and sees that the
vase he's just painted, is now sitting on the table.

Similarly, I recorded nothing. Sometimes when that happens I find that
the VCR has removed the setting for DS all by itself, but I checked
and it's still there. Just when things are starting to get good.
