s02e05 — An Unthinkable Fate

Anthony's speech score * raises a glass*

All five episodes I looked at Edwina and thought: "Well, what a lovely child." Such a naive and bright child who loves her sister madly. And, it seems, the perfect match for any gentleman. Inspired by love, or the feeling that she considers love, she does not see these sparks between Kate and Anthony, although it seems that everyone has already noticed them, including Daphne, mother and Lady Danbury.

I wonder how this sweet child will react when everyone finds out everything. 🤨🤔


But Kate and Anthony are my mom 🥵💔


And again! What beautiful dresses Kate has! Edwina is dressed like a real diamond of the season, but Kate with her colorful dresses is unreal! This color suits her very well!

Poor Kate, it's a little difficult to understand from the first time what exactly Lady Danbury means (or is it my attitude towards her after the first season?)

As if at the moment nothing prevents Kate from telling Edwina about her feelings for Anthony and living happily ever after with him: they will not be given a dowry anyway, the family will live on the viscount's funds, Edwina hardly LOVES Anthony, given her love for her sister - she should understand and forgive and easily go to look for a new groom. Now the drama has already gone for the sake of drama 🥲

But Penelope seems to Eloise to shit for leaving her

they'll make suggestions, then figure out how to get out of it so as not to dishonor anyone))

well, the sparks from their eyes are just tangible flying

my heart almost stopped at this very scene. we are waiting for Mom to tell Kate that she is to blame for Anthony's behavior and for Kate to sort everything out herself

This Theo, though not an aristocrat, is ideally suited to Eloise by nature, it's sad to realize that they have almost no chance of being together

"You are the pain of my existence...and the object of all my desires"💔🥺

My heart stopped during the ring fitting and then again during the confession 💔💔💔

I desperately want Eloise to find her happiness, if not with Theo, then at least in a circle of people who understand her, but what danger is she in because of Pen.

Of course I understand everyone's concern for Edwina and her feelings, but is a broken heart worse than unrequited love? So stupid, I can't (

Oh, these engagement swings, then they think to make an offer or not, then to terminate it or not, then Anthony needs it or not, and now it suddenly became necessary for Kate, what are you doing? It is clear that she asked him to marry because Edwina fell in love, but before that, wasn't there a chance that she would fall in love with him? However, Kate was still against the engagement. Or is she also trying to shield herself from her feelings?

My heart can't stand to see how madly they are attracted to each other. And Anthony is really a gentleman, otherwise I do not know how he holds up with such sparks, and especially when they are so close…
And yes, when Anthony defended them at dinner, I was just melted, well, gold, not a man

And anyway, when you know who finally kisses, I'll just lean back in place, most likely

And I also like new couples very much, we have already written about Eloise and Theo, I would also like to mention Benedict and the model)

not a single kiss, but all the scenes between Kate and Anthony are hotter than any sex scene! tension, desire, attraction – everything is in those miserable centimeters between them

I watched the moment when Anthony falls into the river five times to make sure that he didn't touch the dog))

I know that the most notable scenes are with Kate and Anthony and the heat is unreal, but was anyone as excited as I was to see Giles? I hardly recognized him, time changes everyone, but it was him, Edwina and Kate's grandfather. Oh, even being unbearable here, I was incredibly glad to see him))

Even at the first meeting, I noticed these sparkles between Al and the newspaperman!
I hope everything will be fine with them)
And Pen is with Colin, so she won't hurt her friend.…
And we will have universal happiness)

Oh, Heloise got caught with this Theo. I wonder what this will eventually result in and whether it will lead to marriage.

I've read the entire series about the Bridgertons, and of course I know what's going to happen next, but I'm worried about the characters.

Oh, this is a kneading during dinner

* Entoni falls into the water*
Kate: Adwina, it's not nice to look at you
Also Kate: ️ ️ ️ ️

Benedict🤤

You are the pain of my existence 🔥🔥🔥 just on the break 💔

The jeweler is the engine of the plot .

It's just some kind of tin..if Anthony and Kate are just passionate, then the answer is obvious, you need to give in and everything will pass, the forbidden fruit is always sweet, and they will be attracted to each other until sex happens!To be honest, Edwina is a little annoying, she's really just a child, what deep feelings can we talk about, she just got it into her head that she should marry a viscount and that's it🤷♀️

Song at the end of You Outta Know Alanis Morissette - perfect 👌 🏼 👌 🏼

I somehow ship Kate and Dorset even more, it's a pity that they don't have a chance

Edwina is annoying. Kate and Anthony are in pain 😣
Eloise and Theo, I think it's interesting. 😏

I'm just head over heels in love with the soundtracks of this series, the best songs in instrumental performance, isn't this a paradise for ears🥺🥺

I almost stopped breathing when the kiss was about to happen.. And again, no. 😏

Anthony's Speech

- what did she do wrong?
"it's not her fault, it's yours. Because of you, our union is impossible.
- but I'm going to India.
"it's not far enough. Is there a place on earth so far away where you could go and put me out of my misery? I am a gentleman, my father raised me to be noble, but it hangs in the balance, becoming more shaky with every moment spent in your presence. You are the pain of my existence and the object of all my desires. Day and night I dream of you, that I am... Do you know how many ways there are to seduce a lady? I could teach you.

Still, how similar Anthony and Kate are to each other in character and behavior. Moreover, both have taken on a gigantic responsibility for the whole family, including for a living parent, and are silent about their experiences as partisans. 🙈

At first, I wondered why they weren't finally kissing, why this moment was taking so long. But it so clearly shows his feelings for Kate that he doesn't want to step over the line and ruin her life, well, it takes his breath away from the scenes.😍

Almost-kissing Kate and Anthony is such a heat, Any meeting they have in private is just an explosion of emotions. And how are they still holding up? 😅

I don't like Lady Danbury this season, as if she's different... She's so tough...

I keep thinking that the new Lord Featherington should marry Mama. They would be the perfect couple. What a charisma Polly Walker has!

A couple of touches, but what kind of sex!🔥
Edwina confuses gratitude and generosity with love.
A special admiration for Mother Fazirinton (?) You have to be so good at spinning..

I don't understand how you can get out of this whole situation with a positive ending:(

My heart breaks into 1000 pieces when watching the scenes of Kate and Anthony... ❤️💔💕
I won't have any nerves

Maybe there's something wrong with me, but I see absolutely no chemistry between Kate and Anthony. And unlike the first season, everything is moving very slowly. And the Featherington family just fell off their heads, the mother is just a frame 🙄

I can't wait for Kate and Anthony to kiss.
What a spark they have in their eyes when they look at each other😍

Are all bridgertons weak in front of people without titles?

By episode 5, Edwina's desire for a wedding is beginning to annoy her significantly.

Edwina is a sweet, naive child who doesn't know life. Anthony would not be the best husband for her.
God, I'm so looking forward to Anthony and Kate kissing!
And I'm scared for Eloise. I really hope that Peng will not be jealous and she will not take revenge...

Anthony is so handsome. I just can't.

Lady Featherington has shown amazing foresight! They say let's take all their money, arrange a wedding, sort out the problems and we're back on the horse.

The only question that was ringing in my head after her impassioned speech was, what's next, my dear?

well, you will get the attention of society (very briefly). well, gloat over everyone (very briefly). And then what? you will fall into an even deeper pit. The plan is five points!

How difficult it is to live based on the fear of "what will people think of me?". and what stupid, short-sighted actions this fear pushes us to.

Most likely, Penelope, in order to save her secret, will sacrifice the secret of Eloise, who goes to such places. I don't see any jealousy here, I'm just worried about myself.

The tension between Anthony and Kate can just be picked up by your hands!!🥵🥵🥵🥵 Of course, at that time this situation was insane, Anthony was a gentleman from the core, he couldn't upset a young lady like that, and when he almost agreed, the woman he loved forbade him to do so ... Kate didn't want to deprive her sister of happiness, for which everything was done. She doesn't want to, or rather, she doesn't even consider the possibility that she deserves happiness. Ohhhh. I just hope their mothers will fix their brains!

p.s. don't forget which century they're showing us) it all just seems to us now. Gone, parted, that's it. No, it didn't work that way there after all.

@Cheryl: So I'm not the only one shipping Lord Fraser and Portia, although that's unlikely, of course, he needs a younger lady.

Confession from Season 1 VS Confession from Season 2:
Simon: I think about you all the time. Thinking about you inspires me in the morning, calms me down in the evening, and at night you come to me in my dreams. I always think about you. I'm yours, Daphne, and I've always been yours...
that's what happens when you're burning up with unrequited love.
Daphne: If you had looked at me for more than 2 seconds this week, you would have understood everything. It's my love for you that's burning up.
----------
Anthony: Is there a place on earth so far away where you could go and put me out of my misery?.. You are the pain of my existence and the object of all my desires. Day and night I dream about you and what I am... Do you know how many ways there are to seduce a lady? I could teach you.
Kate: I didn't ask for all this. To be tormented by such feelings, to hide from your sister, to lose your mind every time you appear.
😍💘😊
I don't even know whose confession is more touching. Screenwriters can come up with beautiful and touching words that go straight to the heart. 💔

Mamma Mia! That's the chemistry between Anthony and Kate! I wonder how they'll tell Edwina.…
Madness, as always! Gorgeous 😁

There's a lot of dialogue in this series that just couldn't be better. How effectively they wrap it all up with words, phrases, and epithets is simply heaven for ears.

Oh, that's the passion between Kate and Anthony. It's a pity that they have to be apart because of the rules of society. Although if they hadn't been biased against each other initially and the Viscount had delayed proposing to Edwina, they might well have been together, but that's not interesting, of course) How can there be no drama, scandals?
Charm's family, of course, is one more. How many secrets came out in just one meeting.

No matter how much I look, I don't see a spark between them. a real spark like that. In "Pride and Prejudice," everything was also based only on looks and sharp phrases, and what was the intensity....

after the fading of passion and the intervention of fate - who is a woman left with, except herself?..

I love Lady Danbury 's speeches , they make a lot of sense

Edwina is very beautiful and sweet, and it was nice to look at her from the very beginning.
But now her naivety is starting to annoy, a real child

Let's not forget that Kate is 26 years old. That is, she has a difference of almost 10 years with her sister. Edwina has been protected and raised all her life in fantasies and dreams of an ideal marriage. The girl, in fact, has never seen anything in her life. We are shown a sweet and naive lady who has not even had time to form her own character yet. She is what a young lady should be, what her sister and mother taught her to be. I think she will still prove herself when she finds out everything about the current situation. It is precisely such shocks that form a personality.

how I don't like the main couple of this season, I look at them, to the point of nausea.
How very different from the first season, which I was delighted with

Edwina's facial expressions are similar to her grandmother's, repels from observing her character. Like a little old lady

I was thinking in the woods, after Kate's speech: "well, that's it, now they'll rush to kiss and to hell with everything." An no...They torment us like milk

Where has Simon disappeared ?

In the first season, it was hinted that Benedict is gay, and now something is changing him at the root

Honestly, Anthony is a disgusting character. Even here, he managed to blame Kate for his passion, inability to control himself, for committing an ill-considered engagement. He looks at her like she's jumping into his bed and somehow seducing him or something. Either she forced him to hurry up with an offer to Edwina, or she somehow brought him together with her sister. His whole speech is filled with accusations of love for Kate. I don't know what's touching about it, the speech of a man who is not responsible for his life and actions.

The couple Daphne and Simon caused a lot more emotions, I wanted them to be together, to finally open up to each other. Here I want Kate to take her eyes off Anthony and look for a normal man for herself and her sister.

This season my favorite couples are Benedict and art, Eloise and the boy from the printing house :D

How it killed. Edwina is like this: I'm not a child anymore, I'm a woman. I've grown up.

My dear, the way you talk, what you do and what naive dreams you entertain yourself with - you're still in the nursery at all.

It's just obvious that she can't stand Anthony's character, that Kate will be the passion for him, in which both support with hope and sparks with fire. A beautiful couple, from which passions are heated almost without a single contact. And remembering that the actor is gay, then it's generally beyond all praise to play soooo!

two fools

Well, of course they met by chance on a walk. Are the forests so small? Is Kate's route predictable?

I'm so sick of any scene kate/Anthony. the tension is unreal

I love TV shows when they have Daphne))

For some reason, I was afraid that after the first season, the main couple of the second season would not fall in love with me so much. How wrong I was!

"You are the pain of my existence and the object of all my desires. Day and night I dream about you"💔🛐🛐

Eh, so few people talk about Theo sharp and Eliza moment ❤❤

Eloise is finally interested in someone who matches her, it's a pity that they are most likely not destined to be together (

Anthony is good, of course, but Benedict is just sex. That smirk of his steals my heart.

Theo is such a nice character, and I really like it, although I still had a minute of screen time at most ahhahahhah

Kate and Anthony >>>>>> Daphne and Simon.

argue with the wall.

«after passion cools and fate intervenes, who else is a woman left with but herself?»

– i saw something they can't take away, cause there were pages turned with the bridges burned... you're on your own, kid, you always have been.

Wet Anthony🥵
This and the previous one keep the dynamics and the viewer in suspense
The passion between Kate and Anthony is capable of burning London down🔥

In the first season, Anthony was very annoying with his hypocrisy, but now my respect to the screenwriters is how they finished the character

I can't help but say that Kate and Anthony's dance is the same one that Damon and Elena danced at the ball in the Vampire Diaries

Antokha and Katyukha, you're both idiots! WELL, DAMN IT, YOU DON'T SEE THAT NOW YOU CAN MARRY THE ELDEST, SINCE BOTH SISTERS ARE NOW POOR AHAHAHAHA. Antoha, the plan is this: you go to the youngest and say that you don't love her, and you say that you wanted to get married out of a sense of duty to your family, but while you were trying to establish a relationship with the eldest, you fell in love and you think only about her. The younger one is shocked, but she'll figure it out later and accept it, because she doesn't really love you. He loves me only out of gratitude. And the older one with her sister complex won't have to jump off the nearest bridge out of grief when you get married.
And to be honest, I really don't understand what could be the way out of their situation, because Anthony is right, he will want Kate all his life (just like she wants him), someday he will snap, and then Edwina will become unhappy anyway. Kate, where's your brain!

P.S. At the end of the episode, something scared me that Pen was spying on Eloise. She's not going to kill her friend with her pen, thinking she's going to find out about Lady Whistledown, is she?

P.P.S. Lady Featherington is just a business shark! But I still hope that her daughter's engagement to this cousin is annulled. I understand that my hopes that Lady Featherington herself will become the chosen one of the new Lord Featherington are tiny, because he would want a young woman to give birth to children. But they're such a thorn! tt___tt

After such moments about Kate and Anthony, I had a hot dream about Anthony 😅 😅

Pen starts to cheer up, she 's sweet , yes, but this season I just don 't know, it's one thing to spread all sorts of gossip. But I feel like Eloise will get it, too. It seems to me that Pen has already played too much in her writing. Eloise is a friend who is always there , or she was offended that she had pushed her a little . The further you go , the scarier and more interesting it gets
Kate and Anthony should be together!!! It's very interesting how their line will be taxied

Anthony in Episode 2: I'm not a poet.
Anthony in episode 5: confesses his feelings to Kate so that his knees give out and you forget how to breathe 😍

That's what love does)

At the end of the episode, Anthony looked at Kate with such eyes, saying, yes, I have already collected all the excuses so that everyone can get out of this engagement as painlessly as possible, why are you convincing me otherwise? He literally jumped at the chance thrown up by the ill-mannered grandparents, but out of boundless passion for Kate, he agreed simply... I made concessions to her. Although she herself would be happy to stay with him.💔
And, I must say, the costumers did their best, choosing the fabric that was as transparent as possible when wet. 😆

I don't understand why the Bridgerton's nostrils are flared. Grandparents are ready to give away their inheritance if their granddaughter marries a rich and worthy man. And? Didn't everyone do that? And he's marrying her because the queen called her the best. He marries out of mercenary motives, not feelings. What is Edwina being accused of? And especially Violet, she knows that her son is not marrying for love.

The relationship between Kate and Anthony is very unclear....I don't understand their chemistry! In the first season, this chemistry was visible to the naked eye, but you have to look closely before you see it. 🧐😝🫤
An uninteresting season(

I'm reviewing it during the break of season 4) and I still don't understand where Anthony's option is to marry Kate??? Why is it either Edwina or say goodbye to everyone
forever? What about your sexy sweetheart? That's a stubborn creature Anthony, of course.
They're so similar, of course Kate and Anthony are hot guys, I love them)

A comment on a thousand cons:
Anthony must now marry Edwina. He messed up with her and announced his engagement to the whole of England, gave his solo concert and broke off with the inheritance. He's playing her prince all over himself, and now what? Will he back down?
Even the queen will be made to look uncomfortable.
I'm really against playing Kate.

You are the bane of my existence and an object of all my desires. 🥵🥵🥵🥵 said so, said so. I just want Kate to be happy. She sacrifices herself so much for the sake of her sister and mother. Someone should think about her, too!

Penelope walks in a dress she doesn't want to be noticed in, but at the same time she puts on a pink cape that catches the eye among these gray streets
