 If the character
of Richard Adams did not remain in the annals of the show, he should however not be forgotten, because it is partly thanks to him if Peter
made install a two-way mirror in the presidential suite of the Capwell
hotel.
Responsible for
the works in the presidential suite, Richard, obeying
Peter Flint's orders, thus installs the two-way mirror, which will become a
capital element of all the history of Santa Barbara. The traditional
face of the mirror will appear in good place in the suite,
while the hidden face will be dissimulated in the laundry adjacent to the presidential
suite. Richard explains the working of it.
This one is easier. The second side of the mirror is hidden behind a
wood shutter. Moreover, a microphone, commanded by a switch, allows to hear the conversations.
Although Peter
wishes that this subterfuge remains secret, all the main characters of the
town will very quickly know the existence of it.
It is first Veronica Gayley who will discover its existence at the reading of the
bills, then Lionel, Augusta, Warren
Lockridge, and finally the different members of the Capwell family. Peter
made it install with the only purpose of freely being able to spy Mason
Capwell who, at this time, was living in the presidential suite.
Peter did not suspect then the capacity that such a weapon
represented...
Because this
two-way mirror will be the helpless witness of considerable dramas,
of which the resurrection of Sophia Capwell in front of
Augusta Lockridge and C.C. Capwell's eyes and especially the accidental death
of Dylan Hartley.
