 SEASON 2, EPISODE 14 FACE OF EVIL In this sequel to the Season One episode 'Vanity's Mirror', Joanne Mackie (Gwendoline Pacey) attractive assistant to top model Tabitha Robbins (Laura Robinson), is haunted by visions of her sister's tragic death. Helen Mackie had a compact from Vendredi Antiques that sent her on a killing spree, and in the end, caused her own death as well. Although keenly aware of the havoc wreaked by the cursed compact, Joanne kept it as a remembrance of her sister. Once a top cover girl, Tabitha is jealous of an up-and- coming young model she now works with, and, concerned about the age lines which are beginning to appear on her face, rummages through Joanne's purse to in search of some of her beauty tips. Instead, she finds the compact, and sensing its eerie power, keeps it. For Helen Mackie, the compact helped her get revenge on all who called her ugly. But for the vain Tabitha Robbins, it will take revenge on all who threaten her position as the country's leading model. CAST & CREW RYAN DALLION- JOHN D.
