This week's 666 Park Avenue opens with Jane (Rachel Taylor) consulting with Maris Elder (Whoppi Goldberg) , a psychologist. Maris tries to hypnotize Jane in order to establish once and for all the relationship she has to The Drake. This scene is the high point of the show because it deals conclusively with psychological closure issues which have plagued Jane since the inception of the show.
Maris induces hypnotism by having Jane focus on a clock adjacent to where they are sitting. She goes back in time to December 28, 1927 where Jane takes on the persona of Libby Griffith with quaint oldie music in the background. There, Jane meets Jocelyn who is the little girl in her visions. In reality, Libby is Jane's grandmother who was born on January 22, 1903 and died on December 28, 1927. This is a significant date because Peter Kramer murdered his wife on this date.
Maris explains to Jane that her family has a dark legacy at The Drake. The legacy ties Jane's past and present to these events. Jane isn't the only one interested in past events at The Drake. Gavin (Terry O'Quinn) probes the significance of the spiral staircase at length in a private conversation with Maris. After discussing the specifics of Jane's experiences with the spiral staircase, Maris agrees to report back to Gavin the results of her ongoing investigation with Jane.
The plot thickens when Detective Cooper and Jane go into the basement at The Drake. They locate a wall which Jane believes to hold the secrets of her past. After breaking down a significant portion of the wall, Jane finds a journal maintained by Peter Kramer during the '20s. She looks through the journal and realizes that only Maris can explain the significance of the symbols contained therein.

This is wrong â€" little Jocelyn is her grandmother, not Libby.

The little girl is no more than 5. The woman murdered the night of December 28, 1927 was 24 years old because she was born in 1903. I hope that this issue can be resolved before the end of the show. That's why I had the same problem as you.
