The Big Picture Welcome back, esteemed members of the ton, to another season of Bridgerton. It feels as though it's been an age since we last caught up with the Bridgerton siblings in their quests to find love — 26 months, to be precise, though we did have the beautiful, sweeping, and delightfully swoonyQueen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story to hold us over — but here we are at last, ready to dive into the super slow burn romance that is Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington .
Sure enough, they find her playing in the drawing room, and despite her mother and Hyacinth's shock that she would be so casual on a day as important as her presentation, Francesca insists it's just another day and leads the way out of the room. Violet's shock quickly turns to horror when Benedict points out Francesca was playing a funeral march when they walked in.
The Featherington women head out to a garden party arranged in the Queen's honor — albeit without the Queen in attendance — where Colin proves to all the young ladies that the only thing he picked up on his gap year trip is an extraordinary amount of rizz. Penelope is caught between a rock and an awkward place, as she goes from having to watch Colin flirt with other people to coming face to face with Eloise... and her new BFF Cressida Cowper .
Elsewhere, Will and Alice Mondrich are also experiencing some major changes, with the news that Alice's great-aunt Lady Kent has died, and left her entire estate to their oldest son, making him the next Baron of Kent. Though the pair were first introduced as friends of Simon's in particular, I love that the series has kept them around and keeps finding new ways to keep them woven into the plot of the larger series.
Like Penelope, poor Francesca can't catch a break either. But where Penelope talked too much, Francesca hardly says anything beyond the necessary politeness, even as she's cornered by a trio of Lords who all but demand she rattle off her Bumble profile for them. She slips away and tells Anthony she wants to be left alone for a while, and in a sign of how much he's grown as a person, he actually lets her go.
Following her spinster outburst, Colin finally clues into the fact that there might be something wrong between the two of them, and she finally reveals the reason she is so upset with him is because of how vehemently Colin told everyone he would never ever court her. He attempts to move the conversation somewhere more private, but Penelope has had enough and heads home to write the next issue of Whistledown, sparing no Bridgerton in the process.
