48. Tick Tock

It’s the day after the night before where Colin Bridgerton unexpectedly gave Penelope Featherington everything (tonight) and now they’re engaged. But this is no simple slide into bliss: secrets still stand between them. Speaking of secrets, Eloise knows too many and Cressida is keeping a few herself. There’s nothing like romance and intrigue, and this episode is brimming with both! Also, Kate and Adele squabble. A lot.
