Would you please ask Miss Nolan if my
personal effects have yet been removed

from the Duke's bedchamber and placed in
the Duchess's rooms?

Would you please inform Her Grace that I
will allow no such thing?

Should I really deliver the message,
Your Grace? You cannot believe I shall

welcome you back into my bed after your
lies and deception.

I'm sure marital relations are the least
of my concern after your recent

efforts. Then for what other purpose
could you possibly wish to detain me?

Because you are my wife.

It is customary for a wife to reside in
her own bedchamber once the honeymoon is

over.

A time that is well and truly past,
would you not agree?

I will be kept informed as to the
success of your conjugal endeavours. I

never dream of concealing the truth of
such important matters.

Your Grace, Whistledown has just
arrived.

Well, you should... Is something wrong?

We must pack straight away.

Yes, your grace.

What has happened?

My brother seems to have been embroiled
in scandal.

I must return to see my family
immediately. They will need me. I will

you. This is a family matter.

Separate bedrooms may be tolerated.
Separate households will not be

I shall not let you out of my sight
until we know whether you are with

Clear to request that His Grace prepare
his largest carriage.

I shall require my space.

Miss Marina Thompson's recent fall from
grace continues to echo through every

drawing room in town.

Days after it was revealed, her
engagement to Colin Bridgerton was

than a sham.

Of course, a lady's disgrace does not
merely tarnish her own name. Like the

of the Thames, it also leaves a horrid
smear on anyone nearby.

Hold still, ma chérie.

This scandal could very well tarnish my
debut, Mama.

Perhaps we should delay my coming out
altogether a few years. Oh, harsh child,

all will be well. Just keep smiling.

Can a smile be enough to save the
feathering?

Penelope and her sister did nothing
wrong, but their reputation was

You should be worrying about your own
family's fortunes at present. We are in

just as perilous position.

Lovely day, is it not, Lady Richmond?

It's this whistle, Daryl. I certainly
never want to cross the woman. A word as

good as gospel.

Yes.

Though perhaps she can destroy a
reputation.

She can restore one, too.

Ah!

Très élégante, Miss Bridgerton.

What a debutante you will be.

While there is no parasol in the world
strong enough to shelter a ruined woman,

the fallen Miss Thompson can only hope
she shall find a refuge somewhere.

I'm sorry, my lady, but we are full.

An urgent thing.

The young lady's child will have nowhere
else to go.

Must make exceptions on occasion.

They should be able to procure room, if
one were to make a sizeable donation.

But this is supposed to be a charitable
organisation.

Even charity requires funds, of which
you must have considerable amounts, I

presume?

I...

We have arrived.

There is no need to act the jailer.

I shall not discover him with child
within the next hour, shall I?

Miss Thompson must be in agony over this
lies. Why can I not visit her? Colin.

Listen to me, brother.

That the ton devoured every bit of
Whittle Downs on D is the only thing

this family from shame.

Because of her column, no one believes
you are the father of Miss Thompson's

child. But if you were to go near her,
then they will presume you're

for her ruin, and all your sisters will
pay the price for your notoriety. Is

this what you desire?

Well, of course not.

Evening, everyone. Do it. What are you
doing here, Daph? Do you not be

frolicking in newlywed bliss? I came as
swiftly as our carriage would allow when

I heard the news.

In the middle of your honeymoon?

Hastings must surely be cursing the
Bridgerton neighbor there.

Where is he, anyhow?

He went to set up Hastings' house.

We have all things in order, Esther.

We do not require your assistance.

Oh, well, that is simply not true,
Antony, and you know it. Daphne may be

answer to all of our problems.

Oh, once the Tons see that we still have
the favor of the Duke and the Duchess,

then the whispers may very well cease.

And we shall go about our daily lives as
if nothing has happened, as if nothing

has arrived. And no one will be the
wiser.

Oh, pretending that nothing is amiss is
the perfect way to lure the ignorant

into submission.

Is it not, Mama?

Now, what grand event will the ton be
descending upon this week? Surely there

something.

The, um... The Queen is hosting a
luncheon. I am certain the Duke and I

secure an invitation.

If we are lucky, our return to London
will give everyone so much to talk

they simply have no breath left to
discuss other matters.

I'm so very glad this has all been
settled on my behalf.

You really wanted to marry her.

I did.

Well, then, perhaps we should count you
lucky to not have married a stranger.

She was not a stranger.

She was, rather.

Whistledown knew her better than you.

Whistledown knows everyone's secrets.

And you are lucky to have learnt Miss
Thompson's now instead of after your

wedding day.

I know you must think me a fool, but my
heart pays no heed to mere logic.

When I think of her, I only want to be
near her, to be with her, despite all

reason otherwise.

I know that madness well.

But you cannot visit her.

Leander swam abydos de Cestos every
single night in complete darkness just

see his love.

Leander also lost his way and drowned.

So the story goes.

Did something happen, sister?

Back at Cliveden?

If you really must speak with Miss
Thompson, perhaps I can arrange a

Chaperoned, obviously.

I would appreciate that.

You will see, my passions are not in
vain.

I was a fast learner, friend.

But I should probably conserve my
energies for my exhibitions instead of

spending them on your troubles. You're
about to feed to me.

Surely that will not help with your
exhibitions.

I've not seen you this incensed since
you handed the keys to your duchy.

I will not speak like you, Donald.

Fair enough.

I presume you won't speak of what
happened on your honeymoon, either.

happened on my honeymoon.

I cannot imagine your wife feeling
particularly excited about that. I

you not try to imagine anything to do
with my wife's feelings.

Or actions of that matter!

It follows no reason or sense, does it?

What? Marriage.

And there is not a bloody thing you can
do about it.

I took a vow.

See what I mean?

Fast learner, indeed.

You were still awake?

I've already seen you.

The Queen is holding a luncheon this
week.

We will need to attend with my brother
to signal our support.

Where have you been all night?

I did not think you concerned about my
whereabouts.

Is it truly what our marriage will be
for the future?

You out all night doing God knows what
with God knows whom. With whom?

You won't be.

Not three weeks since you were wed,
it'll really imagine me to foil.

This is such a wild imagining.

We both know your reputation, Your
Grace.

This is clear that you find there is
nothing left in our marriage?

Nothing left.

Is this what I said?

Is it what you believe?

Finish what we started?

No.

What is to become of us?

Simon. If you are the child, then I
shall stay and do my duty to support you

both. And if I am not?

Then we shall remain married, in name
only.

You'll be provided for, of course, in a
manner befitting the Duchess.

But I shall not darken your doorstep
again.

Our lives will be entirely separate
this.

This cannot happen.

This will not happen, do you understand
me?

That we no longer trust each other?

Yes, Your Grace.

I understand that quite well.

Miss Thompson.

Thank you for joining us.

I did not realize I had a choice.

My brother wished for an audience.

And I wish to avoid any further scandal
attached to my family's name.

I will remain here as a chaperone.

Marina.

You must tell me that this Whistledown
woman is mistaken.

What she wrote, it cannot be true.

But it is.

You what?

With child?

I do not understand.

We were to be wed.

You said you loved me. Colin, I hold you
in the greatest esteem. Esteem?

You are a cruel woman indeed to stand
here and talk of friendly affection as

you have not just committed a grave sin
against me. Speak not of sin, Mr.

Bridgerton.

I did not come here to be shamed by you,
nor anyone else.

I did not know better.

You may think me a villain, but I did
what I thought I must.

No one ever truly helped me or guided me
in a different direction.

I had no choice.

I needed to wed, and you, you were the
only man who offered me even a glimpse

happiness. So I should feel flattered,
then?

Consider myself lucky that you chose me,
lied to me, tried to trick me into a

fraud of a marriage.

I shall take my leave of you for the
last time, Miss Thompson.

You wish to know the cruelest part of
your deception.

If you had simply come to me and told me
of your situation, I would have married

you without a second thought.

That is how, in love...

I believed myself to be.

But I see now that was all a lie.

I believe I would like to return home
now.

After all, we don't want another scandal
attached to your family name.

The carriage is waiting, ma 'am. We must
prepare for the Queen's luncheon.

Of course.

Oh, is this not lovely?

All of us together again.

Lovely indeed.

We should tempt scandal more often.

Duchess, may I say how well you look?

Oh, you are too kind.

Is it not marvellous to be wed?

It is both a joy and a wonder indeed.

Make way!

Did you all act like sheep flocking to
the trough?

I have a hundred guineas wagered on
there being a Hastings heir within the

Are you yet with child?

We have certainly been devoting our
energy to the endeavour, Your Majesty.

We should hope to see our queen soon
satisfied.

See to it that you do.

Your duplicity comes so naturally.

I think I've learnt from the best.

I've missed you at the studio at length.

You might join me for another drawing
lesson.

As I said, improvement is all a matter
of practice.

At least that is the excuse he gives for
coming home with paint in all kinds of

peculiar places.

Ah, were you able to meet my friend
Weatherby at my party?

Come, I shall introduce you. No, thank
you. I see my mother requires my

presence. Good day.

Her Majesty requires an audience.

With me?

Who is she?

Your Majesty.

Whistledown. I tasked you with unmasking
the scandalmonger. Believe me, I am

intent on locating her, and I'm angry at
myself for having not yet uncovered her

identity. But I was thinking... Clearly
not fast enough.

My patience has limits.

Get me an answer.

Your Queen commands it. Of course.

Your Majesty.

So, you have returned.

Excellent timing. What was all the
tittle -tattle concerning your brother?

A mere coincidence, Lady Danbury, I am
sure.

Your plan is working.

I have heard nary a peep about Mr.
Bridgerton's unfortunate entanglement

the Thompson girl.

Oh, I almost forgot.

I'm hosting a party I would very much
like you to attend.

We love a good party.

I'm not sure when we will be accepting
invitations. It is an invitation for

Only you.

Your Grace, a special soiree with the
married ladies of the Tom, of which you

are the newest member.

The audacity.

After they tried to entrap poor Mr.
Bridget into marriage with a woman with

child.

Emma.

How are you faring? Has it been terrible
at the house?

I've not had a caller in three days.

My mother swears we are ruined.

But what of Colin?

Is he in pieces from the news? His pride
has wounded, but he will be quite well.

The gentlemen always are in these
matters, but...

Ben, you have not heard what people are
saying.

Lady Whistledown has gone too far this
time.

And I thought you her greatest admirer.
Not when she has smeared the name of my

greatest friend.

When we uncover Whistledown's identity,
we will convince her to publish a

retraction and restore your family's
reputation.

All will be well again, I promise you.

My dear Lady Bridgerton, is this not a
dreadful circumstance for us both to

been so duped by that scheming hussy?

To think that Miss Thompson would take
advantage of my kindness after I opened

my home to her.

You must believe I had no idea of...

Lady Featherington, I

must ask you to leave.

But I have an invitation.

Not anymore.

I'm sure you wish to avoid any further
unpleasantness.

That should teach them.

Teach them what, Miss Cowper?

Judging not, lest we too be judged.

Something troubles you.

I know you are a grown woman now, but I
am still your mother, and you can come

to me when you need advice.

Marriage has its joys, but it also
brings with it its special trials.

And that you are correct.

My marriage is far from perfect. Then
share your thoughts. Perhaps I can offer

my wisdom.

Oh, perhaps you will send me off with
more vague metaphors and... Try it, Ben

Marks. Darling, I am merely trying to be
of help. Do you know what might have

truly helped matters?

If your motherly advice had actually
prepared me to wed.

Whatever do you mean? I mean, Mama, that
you sent me out into the world no

better than a fool.

You taught me how to play pretend, but
nothing of the realities of married

of marital relations.

If you had informed me about the things
that were truly important, if I'd have

known the truth, then perhaps I...

Daphne.

It is the heat.

The Duchess has quite overcome.

We were ridiculed by all today.

Treated as though we were worth it, and
it's all your fault.

How could I have been at fault?

I was not even there.

Well, if it were not for your habit, we
would have been able to rid ourselves of

Miss Thomas in the moment we learned of
her condition.

None of this would have happened.

My lady, the Duchess of Hastings.

She is here.

I'm so glad you thought to visit us,
Your Grace. I fear your mother was

heated at the luncheon. But, of course,
if you've come to offer an

explanation... I require a word with
Miss Thompson.

Alone.

For what it is worth, I am sorry. Your
brother is a sweet boy. You do not need

to... I came here to apologise to you.

To me? I misjudged you.

And I wanted to tell you that what you
felt you had to do, I understand.

I wish it had not happened this way.

No, you are certainly not the only one.

George was a soldier.

But he was also gentle and kind.

He was perfect.

I fancied myself in love.

The next thing I knew, my courses
stopped and I found myself with child

and alone.

What is Sir George's surname?

Or do you know where he is stationed?

His regiment?

Whatever for, Your Grace?

I hear General Langham and his wife are
in London.

Perhaps I could speak to him or her and
have...

Have third George found?

What use would that be?

George does not want to be with me.

But do you really want to be alone?

No rank, no protection, no support for
you or your child.

Surely anything is better than that.

Why should he be the one to choose your
future when he clearly cares not for the

outcome?

He's at fault here.

Perhaps I can make him come back.

and take responsibility for you and his
child.

Why should you be left all alone to bear
the punishment for his crime?

You truly think you can do this?

I assure you, Miss Thompson, I'm quite
capable of doing more than you think.

I have defeated the best, and I'm
confident I shall continue to do so.

There is an appetite for my exhibitions,
but they are expensive, which is why...

I'm not here to invest.

I have a more lucrative proposition in
mind.

Say, for you and I to come to some
arrangement as to the outcome of your

fight?

I'm sorry to have taken your time, my
lord, but I think you would be wise to

leave. And you'd be wise to listen.

Would you rather stake your fortunes on
the outcome of a business scheme which

may very well fail, or back the sure
thing?

You agree to throw your next match, and
I'll make such a wager on your opponent

that even half my winnings will set you
and your family up for life.

My honor is not for sale.

There's a reason your back is dwindling,
Mr. Mondridge.

You're a performer, a mere
entertainment.

We are happy to trade wages on the
outcome of your fists, but no gentleman

ever see you as a respectable man of
business.

I know.

You have a fighting spirit.

Passed down by your father, no doubt?

He was a soldier, yeah?

Managed to flee the colonies after
serving in Dunmore's regiment?

Do you think he sought his freedom, or
for his future son to become some

exhausted fighter stumbling into the
ring to put food on the table for his

family?

Do not dare speak of my family.

Of course.

I... I apologize.

I only mean to say I'm doing this for my
family, too.

It's okay.

One simple arrangement, and both our
problems will be solved.

I merely ask that you have a think on
it.

At the very least.

The tonne has been desperate for you
since you returned.

We've been drowning in calling cards.

Lady Danbury requires your attendance at
her party on Thursday.

A collection of married ladies.

I can only imagine the questions they
will have for me. I shall inform her

footman that you are not feeling well
from the travel.

Your Grace.

Your Grace.

Do you suppose the General's wife will
be in attendance at Lady Dunbury's

soiree? Mrs. Langham?

I heard she enjoys society.

Then send word back.

I would love to attend.

Your Grace.

Welcome to my den of iniquity.

I believe you already know Lady
Trowbridge, Your Grace, but have you met

Granville? And this is Kitty Langham.

The General's wife, yes.

How lovely to meet you all.

Well, you're not just dead. You're the
Duchess's.

We shall teach you the rules.

First a woman takes her wedding vows,
then we gamblers take her virtue.

If her husband has left any to be taken.

Have no fear.

Each turn, all you have to do is get
your token on the card. You believe the

deal will turn over.

Now, ladies, place your bets.

Takes away the thing of losing, I rather
think.

The Duchess is a quick study.

I'm sure she will have the measure of
things in no time.

All it takes is a little practice and
perseverance.

Evening, Your Grace.

It's funny meeting you here.

I am utterly comical.

You've been avoiding me.

Oh, now you are being a jabber.

If you're not avoiding my company, then
you won't mind if I join you for a

drink?

I shall need a large glass. Yes.

The Earl would have my head if he knew
how much money I've lost. The Earl is

two years old.

Well, then I'm in luck, am I not?

The evil I have been blessed with some
beginner's luck. The game is not over

yet, Your Grace.

I wonder, Mrs. Lange. Kitty, please.

You have won so much of my money, it is
only right.

Kitty, then.

There is a soldier in service I'm hoping
to find for a friend.

Do you think your husband might be able
to assist me?

You will have to assess him yourself.

He is so ready at home. I'm so sorry.

Whatever for?

This is quite the ideal situation.

To live a separate life to one's
husband, I am afforded all the freedoms

marriage while bearing none of the
burden of his company.

And what of your children?

Do they not miss their father?

It's difficult to miss someone you've
never known.

You forget.

The Duchess is killing the first bloom
of marriage.

Yes, the famous love match.

Pay me no heed. The Duke's company, I am
sure, is anything but a burden to you.

I can't tell you where to write.

My husband.

Perhaps the general will grant your
response.

It's not as if you are his wife.

Duchess, you win again.

Just seeing how you entertain yourself,
I'd rather think you the victor, Lady

Danvers.

I'd rather think so, too.

Again.

It's a fine colour.

And the bubbles?

Don't get me wrong. I love a good
brandy.

But sometimes nothing will do but a
beer. Would you just get to the point?

I'm afraid I don't know what you're
talking about. Yes, you do.

You're correct, I do.

Just like I know that you've obviously
made a considerable error with my

How, may I ask, could you infer that I
was the one to make the error? Well, I

know my sister quite well.

And while she is an unusually capable
woman, she's not capable of fucking up

this severely.

Do you not ever get that? I'm tired of
pretending to be so perfect.

I've lost in just watching you. We may
not be perfect, but at least we keep our

promises. You know nothing of my
commitments. I am trying to be a man of

word. I am trying to keep... I would not
expect you to understand.

What do you mean by that?

I mean that you leave a litany of broken
promises behind you everywhere you go.

Your duty to protect Daphne from Nigel
Burbrook? Or what about your own

affairs? Are you still seeing that opera
singing you believe no one knows about?

You judge me.

Yet you cannot possibly understand the
responsibility of heading a family

because you've never had one. Ah, but
Daphne is my family now, and there is no

changing that.

Though it is most unfortunate that I
shall never quite reach the lofty ideal

have demonstrated. What is most
unfortunate is the fact that your father

absent. He never gave you a proper
example of how to lead a household.

Well, you certainly make it look
difficult.

I beg your pardon? Not with your
constant struggles.

You cannot manage it, can you? Your
responsibility.

You, fulfilling the promise that every
firstborn son makes to his father before

he dies.

Do you think he's looking down on you
now?

Ashamed?

Mortified at what you have done. I
wonder what would the former Viscount

Seems I became a little too rough
training with Will.

Shall I call for Geoffrey? No.

Let me.

With four brothers, you can't imagine
the nasty cuts I've tended to over the

years.

A child would be a blessing.

Tell me why you are so adamant. Because
I swore a long time ago that I would

never fire a child.

I do not understand.

My father cared more about the
continuation of the Hastings

line.

than anything in the world.

More than my mother.

More than me.

And so I made a vow that his efforts
would be in vain.

That the lion would die with me.

So this is all.

Because of a vow.

You made a vow to me, too.

Or has our wedding day slipped your
mind? I told you. You told me that you

not have children.

You did not tell me it was some token of
revenge against a man who no longer

walks this earth. I swore to him on his
deathbed. And you betrayed me in our

marriage bed.

Let me be certain I understand.

You will neither have children nor the
happiness we could have together because

you promised your father you would not.

I... Say it.

Say it.

It cannot be undone.

Then I thank you for your elucidation,
Your Grace.

If your hatred for your father outweighs
any...

affection that you might bear towards
me, then you are right.

It cannot be undone.

My courses are due within the next few
days.

You will know then which vow you have
broken and how we are to spend the rest

our lives, miserable, together,
perfectly happy apart.

Dearest reader, a question.

Is anything more exhilarating than
taking a gamble? For it is often the

risk that carries the greatest reward.

Yet wager wrongly, and you might find
yourself left with nothing but regret.

Ensure it is delivered to this dress.

Yes, Your Grace.

Of course, one can never know for sure
whether a wager will make a fortune or

ruin it, unless one chooses a more
secure pursuit.

But as the season continues, the biggest
gamblers have yet to truly show their

hand, which leaves gossip in short
supply in recent days.

In fact, this author can think of no
other event that merits to mention.

No other event?

But my luncheon.

At least she did not say anything
odious.

It is far worse.

He wrote nothing.

It... It is worthy of note, however,
that the Duke and Duchess of Hastings

yet to entertain callers together.

Our newlyweds are no doubt still
secluded in nuptial bliss.

Who could fault them, and who could be
surprised if their diligent efforts are

rewarded with a new arrival within the
year?

In the past... Every whistle -down
revelation appeared to be plucked from a

public event where any number of our
town could have borne witness.

But the column that singled out Marina
was different.

It was personal.

Your mama did not just help Marina hide
her condition all on her own. Well, of

course not. Every servant in our
household knew.

Servant is unlikely.

So perhaps a tradesperson, someone who
visited your household regularly, might

have seen or overheard something?

It is a possibility.

In that case, we must reconsider our
methods of inquiry to defend.

Oh, this is wonderful, Pam. I must tell
the Queen of our new theory.

Then tell her at tonight's concert.

I know you are not yet out, but I'm sure
your Mama would still allow you to

attend. Once we unmark Whistledown. Yes,
yes, the Featherington Honour will be

restored.

I must return home.

I shall take the back stairs so no one
will see me.

And, Elle, thank you.

I wrote to General Langham.

I've told him all about Sir George.

If he is a man of honour. You wrote to
the General?

Yes. And did the Duke sign his name as
well on this letter?

Well, no.

But... Marina, what is it?

The General will not concern himself to
write back to you, Your Grace.

You do not know that?

You will pay attention to the words of a
duchess. You must.

Are you so unworldly?

I... I'm sorry, I... Your help is
greatly appreciated, but there is

you can do.

Marina... It's over.

I have already accepted the fact.

I thank you for your efforts.

Missing the concert?

Indeed.

Not exactly in the mood for music and
final this evening.

I want to apologise.

Are there locusts in the street?

Blood in the Thames? Are the end of days
upon us already?

I may have been a trifle harsh with you.

And I'm sorry.

You merely wish to protect me from my
more...

Foolish impulses.

So you admit it now, you are acting a
fool. As apologies go, this is certainly

not... Hush, you.

You may hurt now, but the pain will
pass.

You have the love of all your family and
the honour of your actions.

Soon you will forget Miss Thompson's
name and it will... It will be as if you

never loved her at all.

And how have these precepts served you?

Dismal, most troubling ones I've heard
in quite some time.

It's a work in progress, to be sure.

I suppose I was surprised to hear you
wish to join us this evening.

I must be grateful for your restraint to
not using any feathers.

You look lovely.

Eloise.

Taking your place in society should be
an exciting time in a young woman's

If you are not truly ready, I shall not
ask you to play pretend.

Perhaps I have been rushing you.

We need not hasten your coming out
before you feel prepared.

The Queen will be in attendance at
tonight's concert, will she not?

I believe she will.

Then I am looking forward to it.

An exciting time indeed, Mama.

Are you ready?

I am

The Granville.

Bridget.

Excuse us.

I would simply like to understand
your... situation.

I'd just like to understand.

It is simple.

I'm in love with Lord Weatherby.

You're married. And our marriage affords
my wife her freedoms and protections.

It is a happier union than most of the
people in this room have, I assure you.

And what is the advantage for the young
ladies Lord Weatherby is courting? Or do

they also share this understanding? What
about honour?

Romance? What would you know of either?

We live under constant threat of danger,
Bridgerton. I risk my life every day

for love.

You have no idea what it is like to be
in a room with someone you cannot live

without, and yet still feel as though
you are oceans apart, stealing your

glances, disguising your touches. We
cannot so much as smile at each other

without first ensuring no one else is
watching.

It takes courage to live outside the
traditional expectations of society.

You talk of doing the same.

But perhaps it is merely just that.

Full talk.

Your Majesty, it's clear as day. Lady
Whistledown is someone who works closely

with the members of the Tarn, yet she is
not a member herself.

She is a tradesperson.

Is that all?

I beg your pardon?

I'm no longer in need of your services.

But... My theory... It is not necessary.

I've hired a team of Bow Street runners
to do a proper investigation.

They will unmask Whistledown, and she
should be made to pay for her

impertinence.

That noxious gossip rag will finally
cease to exist.

You want to silence her?

There is still good she must do.

Child, go.

How long is this concert?

Three hours. Half? Four.

Though I certainly have already heard
enough.

You are my most favorite brother. Do you
know that?

I would like to make a stop and pick up
a friend.

A friend?

Should I not have a friend?

It's not bound by the rules, is it?

Please do not tell Mother.

Why are we at the modis?

My sister Louise, and we will be
dropping her at home.

How was your night, ma chérie?

It was...

Everything I expected.

Horrible and terribly boring.

So this is why you do not wish to lower
your hands.

The entire town were there and I did not
have a single worthwhile exchange.

The entire town? You mean everyone
except for the Featherington?

Yes, everyone except.

Your mama did not just help me in a high
-tech condition all on her own. Well,

of course not. Every servant in our
household knew.

So perhaps the tradesperson?

I certainly never want to cross the
line. A word as good as gospel.

Is everything well, Eloise?

Marina?

Can we talk?

Marina?

Are you still awake?

Thank you.
