Henry is gone, and a gloom falls over the house. Sir Thomas suspects that Maria doesn't want to marry Rushworth, but she marries him anyway. Fanny and Miss Crawford start hanging out, and Fanny secures a dinner invitation.

Topics discussed include Fanny's glow-up, how Fanny and the Bertrams feel about the slave trade, Maria's revenge plot, flirt-harping, the Brontës' use of the word "ejaculate," Fanny's love of nature, the Doge at the court of Louis XIV, and Edmund and Mary's fundamental incompatibility.

Patron Study Questions this week come from Avi and Linnea. Topics discussed include Fanny's question about the slave trade and our characters wanting to change each other.

Becca's Study Questions: Topics discussed include Fanny cozying up to Sir Thomas, the retiring of the WTF Maria Tracker, zeroing in on the love triangle, and Mary and Fanny's friendship.

Funniest Quote: "It was a very proper wedding. The bride was elegantly dressed; the two bridesmaids were duly inferior; her father gave her away; her mother stood with salts in her hand, expecting to be agitated; her aunt tried to cry; and the service was impressively read by Dr. Grant."

Questions moving forward: Is this the last we're seeing of the Bertram sisters? What will happen between Mary and Fanny?

Who wins the chapters? Maria!
