Merciless Mama: Real talk, Snarky: we’re all relying on you now. Me, looking up from my “near exact Austen quotes” bingo card: Merciless Mama: You are both horrible wicked children who should stop teasing me! Have you no sensitivity for my nerves? Dastardly, you better start looking for another lady, just in case.ĭastardly Duke: Quite right. Meanwhile, Merciless Mama is having a similar reaction to Lady D (kinda tracks, since they’re both wealthy women of a certain age) but with an added splash of “we’re going to be ruined by association” that gets, rightfully, mocked by her daughter. I’m glad SOMEONE is still out here refusing to believe Horrible Ed has turned a corner, I’ll tell you that much. Lady D: I don’t think men can change, actually, but go off I guess. Horrible Ed, salty: Ah, but I’ve changed and grown as a person, all thanks to you! Lady D: I can sympathize, actually: I know how annoying it is to have grasping poor relations lurking around to steal your money. Horrible Ed: Yes, I can tell how sorry you are. Anyway, while he sulks about his objectively pretty good life, Lady D gloats to Horrible Ed over breakfast: Georgiana might lose all of her money! Wouldn’t THAT be something! The girls don’t buy it, and neither do I, but what are you gonna do? (Bust up the wedding and steal the bride, obviously, but I guess we’ll probably have to wait at least another episode for that to happen). Mystery Dad: She’ll probably go home after the trial so she can marry Boring Ralph. Leo, committed to the bit: What about Charlotte, will she come?
