Mansfield Park Chapters 17-18
Notas do episódio
Rehearsals continue for Lovers' Vows! The cast starts in-fighting, but Fanny enjoys watching rehearsals...until she ends up in the middle of one.
Topics discussed include anonymous valentines, justice for Julia, Henry Crawford as Molly's type, morally grey characters, ASMs, lazy insults, and SIR THOMAS'S RETURN!
Patron Study Questions this week come from Flying Cupcake, Marija, Avi, Spring, and Angelika. Topics discussed include Fanny's fun side, why Mary is a better friend to Fanny than her cousins, Fanny's refusal to act, everyone's moral compromises, morality vs. indulgence, and why Mary actually sought Fanny out to rehearse.
Becca's Study Questions: Topics discussed include Henry as the best actor of the group, where we've been and what we've learned so far, and where we stand on the characters at the end of this volume.
Funniest Quote: "It is about Lovers' Vows!"
Questions moving forward: What is Sir Thomas going to do when he sees the house? Does Rushworth understand that Maria is into Henry?
Who wins the chapters? Fanny!
