It was such a bad situation all around and felt written specifically to give Penelope the most trauma imaginable, ha. Adding in the laughing at her on top of it all? Terrible choices and does more damage in a way that seems gratuitous vs serving the story.
I think it was smart of have her accuse him of being embarrassed of her when she finally confronts him over it, it would be the first place most minds would go with the way they did it last season. Very much a growing pains story for both of them, Penelope really needs to come into her own and Colin, god love him, he needs to learn to be comfortable in the fact that he's not his brothers. And that's okay.
Losing platonic relationships hurt just as much or worse than romantic ones so everyone is hurting when they come into s3 and I want to hug them all. Eloise is just going through it, Penelope is probably losing her mind, and Colin is just faking it til he makes it only failing and missing his friend. Then he falls in love with her. Godspeed to him.
I would looooove if they wrote it together if for no other reason than to gag the people that are so rude for no reason, hah.
Oh yeah, I have empathy for her situation but she is truly unlikable in characterization. If they had presented her as desperate and that gave way to some of her arrogance and almost hateful behavior towards others in her pain and fear for her future, I would get it but no, she just comes off as mean. Treating everyone as lesser than her while they're trying to help her (with her own mistakes at that) was just such a wild character choice. She wasn't even convincing in her trying to get Colin to marry her to me, ha.
So much of the stuff about Penelope being the villain when in all reality, she's not saying anything that others aren't saying to each other (outside of the Colin and Eloise thing for their protection) just comes off as petty jealousy that Penelope/Nicola has more spotlight right now than others. They have handled it better than I ever could!
I am almost sure I am going to cry multiple times this season and I am getting ready for it, haha.
Yeah I don’t know how the explain even the point of it but it doesn’t sound like they even do. I’m glad she confronts it head on. That’s a good start for her. Either way they are both still very young here, unlike in the book where they are in their late 20’s, they are not that far along here by skipping ahead to this storyline.
I’m still seeing so much discourse around the damn brothel scene that NO ONE has even scene yet, but my God people are speculating he is somehow some BDSM Dom somehow out of one stupid tabloid article and a few sentences. I’m over it. Watch the F’ing show first before you become an expert out of something you have not even seen yet. Speculation is fine, but full on judging a character over speculation is beyond the scope of anything. And it truly ruins your own peace of mind. Goodness. Sorry had to get that off my chest!
Back to Eloise LOL! I have a feeling I will be less angry about her once we get to the season. I’m more curious about Cressida because they aren’t telling us much about her and the photos seem quite grim honestly. Her home life seems so sad and dark.
Would it not be the best to even reference the chance that they could take over as narrators of the whole damn show. The uproar itself would drown out everything hahaha!
I do wonder if she ends herself or they have her leave the show in other means for the whole Phillip and Eloise piece. It just feels sooooo dark. Perhaps she comes down ill and dies leaving him with the children. But she’s gotta go somehow for that to work lol.
I mean its hard to make her the villain when things have worked out so well for the Bridgertons if NOT for LW! Lets be honest she’s things work out pretty well for Daphne, Colin, and Eloise whether they admit it or not. It’s not like they live in a time where they are able to take care of those issues themselves. LW has saved their ass without them being stuck in things they could not have gotten out of or losing their heads, honestly. I’d say that’s the opposite of a villain. Has she said less than nice things…sure she called Anthony a Rake. Was he…Yes. Is Colin faking this BS persona…Yes. Soooo she’s honest with a side of bitchy…good for her! Sod society.

idk if it's true but I heard that the next season will be Colin's season and I am scared that they are somehow going to make Eloise seem like the wrong one in the whole conflict between Eloise, Penelope and LW. Eloise had every right to be angry.
next season might be about colin??? huh???
i mean, on one hand, that makes sense because whistledown is revealed at the end of colin's book (i think?) and i don't think we could stretch the whistledown plotline that much further while still keeping it an Integral Part of the Plot and something interesting. i'm lowkey already tired of it and i know i'm not the only one. stretching it for benedict's season and colin's season would be one straw too many, imo. and when you also factor in the fact that benedicts ~setup~ in the finale of season 2 was incredibly rushed for no reason (literally so. many. sideplots could have been shortened or cut to make room and time for benedict), it might be a good decision to let him marinate for a bit. perhaps he's not quite ready.
but on the other hand, i Do Not want the polin ship to happen right now. not when penelope has no character growth!!! and don't lie and tell me that pen can ~grow~ during the season because we all know bridgerton doesn't actually do growth with their characters, they just reinvent them the moment the season starts back up. i mean???? anthony is my case in point???? maybe this is an unpopular opinion but anthony is a COMPLETELY different character from season 1 to season 2 and it wasn't because of character development!!! they just decided to make him nice and shiny before the new season started!!!! and so if it's time for pen to have a ~romance~ there will be minimal growth and instead just..... changes to penelope's character that predate the outset of season 3 but are post-season-2-finale, and "restructuring of the narrative" to show that pen was a good person all along (!!!!) that she was just a sadgirl (!!!!!!). respectfully, ✨ no ✨.
and yes!!!!!!! eloise is justified in her anger!!!!!!!!!!!!!! penelope is that gaslight gatekeep girlboss meme but like,,, legitimately,, and eloise has every right to be pissed as hell. your fears are so valid anon and i and waiting in just as much suspense as you.
