good episode, Ann never looked better

Warning: Spoilers
The other reviews say it all so I don't fear to disclose that Constance uses a scarab (a live one!) to drain the life force from unsuspecting men(always men??) in order to keep her eternal good looks. Having Celia Lovsky as an aged "daughter" was a nice touch- that woman can say more with her eyes than with any dialogue- but speaking of dialogue, it's never explained why Constance has no accent and her 'daughter' has a distinctly Austrian/German accent!! Guess Celia couldn't imitate an American accent well, so they just left it in, but it is the one jarring note in a good episode- and yes, it's the perfect companion to the Walter Jameson episode- this time with the "happy" ending that Constance Taylor keeps going on!
