Pod and Prejudice Pride and Prejudice Vol. II Chapters 5-8
Chapter 5: Lizzy leaves London to visit Charlotte at Hunsford. Highlights include Collins on HGTV, his 15 trees, Baby de Bourgh, LA!, and Lizzy's Darcy obsession.
Chapter 6: Dinner at the de Bourghs'. Highlights include Collins's mustard yellow robe, the reason Becca's family is always late, Molly's guess for who plays Lady Catherine (and mixing up Judi Dench and Gwenyth Paltrow), our Baby de Bourgh and Mrs. Jenkinson spinoff series, and a gentle reminder that Kitty and Lydia are different people.
Chapter 7: A week goes by, and Sir William leaves. Now we're out of vacation mode. Highlights include Charlotte's menstrual cycle, Collins's kinks, new GUESTS (spoiler alert: Molly made a CORRECT prediction), last names as first names, and Brooklyn craft beer gardens vs. Philly craft beer gardens.
Chapter 8: We would like to note we recorded this in December--we know it is no longer Hanukkah. Everyone is having a great time hanging out with Colonel Fitzwilliam. Highlights include some quality flirting, a reminder that Bingley exists, piano as a metaphor, and Pride and Prejudice from Darcy's perspective.
Study Questions: Topics discussed include lasagna, the secluded nature of Rosings, new characters, our Baby de Bourgh and Mary fanfic, Charlotte and Collins, Lizzy's piano skills, Darcy getting off the metaphorical horse, the Lizzy and Darcy relationship, and Georgie Darcy.
Funniest quote: "She soon saw that her friend had an excellent reason for what she did, for Mr. Collins would undoubtedly have been much less in his own apartment had they sat in one equally lively, and she gave Charlotte credit for the arrangement."
Question moving forward: Is something growing in Lizzy and Fitzy's lasagna?
Who wins the chapters? Darcy!
