Bridgerton (2020) - Season 2 Edit

A ball may very well work.

A ball would give Edwina another chance to find a suitor.

A ball.

A bigger story I cannot foresee.

A broken hearted bride to be.

A celebratory drink?

A different sort of education than what I had pictured.

A duchess who is still a Bridgerton.

A fact Lady Whistledown must have somehow missed.

A fact we may well be glad of. Put those silks down.

A fact which, I am sure,

A failed wedding with their queen presiding.

A family gracious enough to let me hunt with them.

A favorite pastime of mine.

A feeling.

A friendship based in like minded thought and rigorous conversation.

A gentleman cannot take back his word.

A gift from Lord Featherington?

A good idea. To cheer our guests.

A high honor, indeed.

A letter for you.

A letter from London.

A life of independence

A lifetime ago, it seems.

A little late for that.

A little young, to be sure, but he has 10,000 a year.

A maharajah I would have understood,

A man of commerce, is he not?

A man used to always getting his way.

A man who knows what he wants is most admirable.

A memorable occasion, to be sure.

A mind which, I can already discern, is far, far superior to yours.

A Mr. Theo Sharpe, I believe.

A mutual decision.

A new foible that one of us needs the other to tease out and inspect.

A new perspective, yes?

A noble pursuit.

A novel of love, in fact.

A person. Yes.

A pleasing face, an acceptable wit,

A pleasure.

A prince or a duke, perhaps.

A proposal, Didi.

A rather fortuitous turn of events, my lord.

A rather interesting assertion.

A respectable family is headed by a gentleman, is it not?

A scandal, Mama?

A season with no new dresses, nor servants.

A shift.

A song? A jig?

A toast. Yes.

A whisper is relevant for only as long as it is spoken,

A win I do not relish.

A woman of such grace and kindness.

A woman who is a victim herself,

A young lady cannot be a diamond

A young lady will go in pursuit of a proposal.

About a private matter between Miss Edwina and the viscount.

About as much as a gentleman knows about mining.

About courtship just by how he looks when a young lady dances with another.

About how well your business is doing, out of modesty.

About how you were always clinging to that wall,

About matters so foolish I'd have blushed to share them with anyone else.

About me and Theo.

About Mr. Sharpe and his degree of interest.

About my dislike for the viscount?

About our family. About how you and I are related.

About the inheritance scheme.

About the season's available gentlemen too.

About the unearned advantages of your birth.

About what it is you do and do not wish for,

About what you're doing proceeding with this engagement.

About whatever it is you feel.

About whether the festivities of this day might or might not take place.

About your gemstone mines back in the Americas.

About your grandparents, and how they have, in fact,

Absolutely not.

Absurd. She looked beautiful.

According to Debrett's, he should be quite the catch this year.

Admiration, favor, praise.

Adore it.

Affectionate families of the ton. Are there not?

After 15 children, I seem to have run out of ideas.

After a lifetime of filling my head with nonsense,

After all these years.

After all, a woman is allowed to have but two interests.

After all, everyone else is finding some purpose to their lives.

After all, one form is much like another,

After all, the viscount and my sister have been so good

After all, this is the season the viscount intends to find a wife.

After all, this wedding is as much your triumph as mine.

After Appa died,

After each and every sip, to be sure.

After everything last year with Miss Thompson, Mr. Bridgerton,

After everything that happened with his scullery maid last season,

After having mourned dear Papa for so very long,

After having spent the last few days on her own.

After he died.

After he installs some beef witted chit into our drawing room

After him.

After Mr. Bridgerton and Miss Thompson's falling out,

After my father died, Mama and I did the best we could

After passion cools and fate intervenes,

After seeing Marina?

After such a lengthy journey,

After such a long mourning period.

After such a tragic year.

After the promise of the wedding to end all weddings was broken.

After what I overheard the other night

After which you put my hand to your bosom.

After you.

After you.

After your elder sister's triumph,

Again and again.

Ah, but not up to your abilities, I'm sure. [chuckles]

Ah, is that so? You would bravely bear the crushing shame of defeat?

Ah, Lord and Lady Sheffield, it has been too long.

Ah! Here they are.

Ah.

Ah.

Ah.

Ah.

Ah.

Ah.

Ah.

Ah.

Ah.

Ah. Forgive me, Miss Sharma.

Ah. Now, that looks splendid.

Ah. Shall we go through to dinner?

Ah. Who shall be perfectly happy doting on my many nieces and nephews one day soon.

Alas, I am an only child.

Alas, I was forced to occupy my day with tedious wedding errands,

All along, you have been set on marrying my sister,

All because

All because of your self serving manipulation!

All eyes and ears seem to be open for the freshest detail.

All I am thinking is that this little baby

All I could think of is how I do not even know you.

All I find myself being able to breathe for…

All I find myself thinking about,

All is not lost today, ma'am. I have received word.

All is not well. I have done this seven times.

All of that would be solved if you would simply call off the wedding

All of them.

All of these decisions that you seem to make

All of this, you and I, is in the past.

All of those terrible things I said to you.

All one has to do, I suppose… is listen for it.

All right, take your time.

All so Lord Bridgerton could get closer to my sister.

All so you could keep making money, at a cost to everyone else.

All studied in the same academy?

All that has been witnessed in private.

All that I have witnessed, ma'am, is the love a king shares with his queen,

All the feathers affected my senses.

All the more reason to end this sham of an engagement.

All this time, I thought I needed

All this time, you wanted him for yourself.

All those years traveling, you have not been tempted to marry?

All we need would be for someone to witness something untoward

All will be lost if we run now.

All will be well,

All you are doing, my lord,

All you ever do

All you have to do this evening

Allow it to now be my honor to present to you the season's diamond.

Allow me to get to work.

Allow me to give it some consideration.

Allow me to introduce Miss Sharma

Allow me to introduce my sister, Miss Edwina.

Allow me to introduce to you my youngest,

Allow me to join you.

Allow me.

Allow me.

Almost as long as our son has been courting Philippa,

Along with some rather questionable matters of breeding, then

Alongside people like Cressida Cowper is beyond me.

Also lonely, perhaps?

Although two of the founding members are women,

Always have a way of coming to the surface.

Always with a kind word and a joke.

Am cursed to remember every waking moment.

Am I like him at all?

Amma wore them on her wedding day and saved them.

An admirable endeavor, if not rather surprising.

An adventure, indeed.

An excellent choice.

An inner circle, if there ever was one.

An insipid wallflower, indeed.

An oversight on your part, my dear?

And a counterfeit ruby necklace.

And a credit to both their parents.

And a wise one who plays their opponent.

And admit defeat?

And after you had already lost your mother too. Kate…

And after, most especially,

And all for what? A mere clerk, was he?

And allow me to prove

And allow me to set my cap at Miss Cowper again.

And allow us to be presented again.

And an appreciation for beauty, of course. [chuckles]

And an excellent one at that.

And and and and our congregation?

And apparently, she will travel great distances too.

And are you not sharing them now?

And as for her dancing, well,

And as you very well know, I always have something to say.

And at least half a brain.

And away from desire?

And be a stain from which the penniless Sharma family

And bearing my children.

And besides, is this not the reconciliation you wished for?

And bestow the highest of honors

And bred hothouse flowers on display this year,

And bring me a list of the peerage.

And by "your business," I mean this bar. It needs tending.

And came back with these marvelous drawings.

And certainly not to know how to take on and manage a household.

And control your emotions.

And craven demands that they should chase wealth

And did Miss Edwina mention pall mall? She did not appear to be having much fun.

And did you ever regret that choice?

And did you see the mastic trees on Chios Island?

And do not ask me to speak of your activities.

And do not talk to me of dowries, sir,

And do not think I took it lightly,

And do not trouble yourselves for an invitation for the wedding,

And do these men work for you, Featherington?

And does not believe in love at all.

And every time we've been apart. You do not have to accept it or embrace it

And for the first time in my life,

And for what may very well be the first time in my life…

And from one of the ton's most illustrious families.

And give Her Majesty exactly what she wants. An ally.

And handsome, of course.

And he is available.

And he will keep a gentleman's agreement.

And here we are,

And hide in a closet as she ruins her life?

And how exactly did I look?

And however I please to do it.

And I am sorry for wasting your time.

And I am still unsure whether I would like to attend tonight.

And I am very much in need of someone to tell about my stories.

And I am… sorry for everything that happened

And I can go back to mine.

And I can tell you, it is never the wise choice.

And I could not live with myself

And I do not wish for secrets to set us apart.

And I do not wish you to do so.

And I do say so,

And I enjoy that beautiful necklace you are wearing.

And I even took the liberty of having your possessions

And I had decided last year that I'd marry the prince

And I had Mrs. Varley forge a signature on a document

And I had to borrow a dress from my maid to return home.

And I have every intention of bringing it to a point.

And I have seen you at all stages.

And I hear Miss Goodrum is very accomplished in her needlework.

And I hope that

And I know that this is not as you would wish it,

And I look forward to showing these other mamas

And I never saw you as anything else.

And I refuse to be thrust back into such a world of fantasy.

And I shall never have to suffer the disdain of the ton again.

And I think about how

And I will spend every day of my marriage

And I will walk away.

And I would gladly help, ma'am, but I wield no such power, I assure you.

And I would undoubtedly feel

And I'd like to thank you for not

And if I do not like what I see,

And if she's even sparked your renewed interest, El,

And if the Bridgertons were to learn of it, they might feel

And if there is one thing you should know by now,

And if we continue on like this,

And if you continue down this road,

And if you think you shall inherit a single sovereign now,

And in the eyes of society, and, might I add,

And in the face of this congregation,

And in truth, all she does is repeat what she hears.

And interesting.

And is entrapping a man in marriage really so uncommon?

And is that all?

And is that not what a good marriage should mean?

And it forces you to choose how you will live with it,

And it is best to call off this doomed engagement

And it is clear to me that you do not care about them at all,

And it is no trouble, is it?

And it would break my heart

And it's certainly not some accomplishment I've developed,

And it's not just her. It is all of them.

And leave my poor Prudence jilted?

And leave town at once.

And Lord Abernathy, he will refuse to eat

And Lord Bridgerton made certain I play the fool.

And Lord Bridgerton too.

And Lord Cho cuts me?

And made his intentions clear from our first arrival.

And make sure you put an extra blanket on Lord Weston's bed.

And may I present her daughters,

And meandering paths for every afternoon promenade too.

And might call off the wedding?

And Miss Edwina Sharma.

And Miss Eloise Bridgerton.

And Miss Goodrum thought that Napoleon fights for the Spanish.

And more pleasurable partners. [chuckles]

And my art must come before all else.

And my endeavors, I'm sure together we can finally unmask her.

And my heart.

And my sister has me watching her as well.

And my special gratitude to Miss Edwina.

And neither would your footman at the front door.

And no event better designed

And no offense taken. He was ugly.

And no, there is nothing to worry about, I assure you.

And not a moment too soon.

And not because of anyone else.

And nothing more.

And now

And now believes me to be Lady Whistledown herself.

And now I know I was right.

And now there is no air.

And now we may know why we are the only ones here.

And now you appeal for help. My, you must be smitten by this miss.

And now you intend to cast her aside.

And now you question my judgment.

And now you shall.

And now you suggest I wait?

And now you've secured yourself a future of poverty.

And now, believe me,

And of everyone, really.

And once our profits come, both our families will benefit,

And one of them might turn out to be a prince?

And our family will suffer equal scandal.

And ousts me out of my very own home.

And out of our lives.

And perhaps make the bouquets even bigger.

And perhaps our greatest challenge too.

And perhaps playing host to old friends?

And pleasant,

And ready.

And refine your circle of friends.

And remember to laugh at his jokes.

And rightly so.

And see my way to ending things.

And send apologies for missing the dinner tonight.

And she could just as easily take her business elsewhere.

And she shall receive it,

And she will never publish again.

And sheer relief.

And should your brush with death not be our best social capital yet?

And show them who we truly are.

And since when has that ever created an issue?

And since you clearly do not wish to jeopardize your social standing

And since you insist on sneaking around,

And since?

And Sir Philip cares for me. He is a good father.

And smiles rather exquisitely.

And so I am wondering if

And so, to save us from an even worse fate,

And soon enough, it will be as if we never felt it at all.

And stop that too.

And that dour child who fancies herself a harpist?

And that I forgive you as well.

And that is victory enough for me.

And that is what you now wish?

And that is why I wish to marry you.

And that last part is not so much a requirement but a preference, in fact.

And the baker is still awaiting payment.

And the casket, of course. One will need to be built.

And the conversation, there were no awkward pauses.

And the day after?

And the delivery boys need a wage increase.

And the fall.

And the horses' manes braided. We should bring out the finest silver.

And the object of all my desires.

And the pain that I felt…

And the queen herself has apparently saved our families from utter ruin.

And the victor of every match today.

And their rather sly intentions,

And then again every morning before I open them.

And then I thought about how you said people have been talking

And then resent us for.

And then your father, we cannot afford any more scrutiny

And then, well, this whole thing falls apart.

And then?

And then… heaven help us all.

And there is no scandal or ill will between our families at all.

And therefore, it is not by any to be enterprised,

And they say Millerson has a whelp in the country.

And those involved with its… interference.

And throw myself at your mercy.

And titles above all else!

And to ask you to marry me.

And to Cousin Jack.

And to look after my mama.

And to that end has invited our diamond to join him

And to think,

And total sacrifice.

And transcend ordinary anxieties.

And undo any damage.

And very old.

And vice versa.

And wait with the grace our hostess affords us.

And wallowing in such misery?

And we are truly grateful for everything.

And we do have so much to catch up on, so

And we will call it

And well favored.

And what about failing to tell me

And what about my young ladies?

And what about you?

And what choice did I have?

And what do you think that makes you?

And what does one feel in a Bridgerton?

And what Edwina so clearly wants for herself,

And what exactly is your business, Pen?

And what good is it anyway to make a name for oneself

And what I… [exhales]

And what if you said yes?

And what in actuality?

And what is it that you believe we share?

And what is it, do you think, you do to me?

And what is that?

And what kind of feelings are those?

And what of my sister?

And what of our other grand plan?

And what of the sister?

And what of us, Brother? Should we also be polished and braided for the big day?

And when the husbands come to you, you agree to the arrangements.

And where, may I ask, is our intrepid viscount?

And who shall she choose to share them with?

And who would make that list?

And whose unscrupulous actions I once mistakenly condoned.

And why should there not be? [chuckles]

And why, when you are so close to getting what you want,

And wish to make your acquaintance.

And with a child from a previous marriage to God knows who.

And with you, apparently so forthright in your disdain for such a thing…

And yet far more worrying for us.

And yet here we are.

And yet still,

And yet you have come far.

And yet, after everything that happened with Miss Thompson,

And yet, I, myself,

And yet, the debutantes of London fall short at every turn.

And you and I will be free of her.

And you are certain

And you are no one's fool. That is the truth.

And you are not leaving any worse off than when you arrived.

And you are ready to grant him your blessing, are you not?

And you could accept such a mystery?

And you find this unusual?

And you have always wanted nothing more than your freedom.

And you must be Miss Edwina.

And you must know I will do everything in my power

And you never much cared for the viscount, but I hope today we may all find joy.

And you never treated me any differently. Everything I… I did, I owed it to you.

And you seem to have taken to the sun too. How peculiar.

And you should be too.

And you should not attempt to.

And you stopped laughing, altogether, in fact.

And you were alone.

And you would not be dishonoring her in the slightest,

And you would rather count your steps.

And you, Lady Mary.

And you, rather conveniently,

And you.

And you…

And you'll not concern yourself with finding a match of your own?

And you'll use the assistance of that apprentice, Mr. Sharpe.

And you've wanted me to find more ladylike pursuits.

And your family's financial affairs?

And your Greek?

And your queen most appreciative.

And, from the looks of it,

And, no, I do not normally care what other people think, but, yes,

And, of course, times when it is not.

And, of course, you must be our guests at the Sheffield manor.

And, on the contrary,

And, uh, how are you?

And, uh, that of your future husband, of course.

And, well,

And, well, then there is Anthony.

And?

And…

Animals require no contracts or dowries.

Annual Hearts and Flowers Ball,

Another ball?

Another quill? You do get through them at an extraordinary rate.

Another tea at Bridgerton House for some time.

Another? Mm. You're overcounting.

Answer… me.

Antagonism is, I'm afraid, what you must expect.

Anthony has invited a young lady to Aubrey Hall?

Anthony is to be married.

Anthony!

Anthony.

Anthony.

Anthony.

Anthony.

Anthony.

Anthony.

Anthony.

Anthony.

Any invitations you may have overlooked for the evening?

Any meat that is not well cooked,

Any more than I can stand to see Edwina in pain.

Any other young lady

Any pain, any burden for her.

Any suitable gentleman will require some persuading,

Any suitor wishing to gain an audience with Miss Edwina Sharma

Any young lady ever takes.

Anyone here you've not yet rejected?

Anyone in particular?

Anyone would think our siblings had beaten Napoleon himself on the battlefield

Anything she might print, surely we will already know.

Anything, Mama, to get me out of doing this.

Anything.

Apart from the arrival of our interesting visitor.

Apart from the fact that I shall finally have my viscountess, as is required.

Apathy is a blight the monarchy simply cannot endure.

Apologies, Mama.

Apologies, my lord. I much prefer a quadrille.

Apologies, sir.

Apologies, viscount. You appear to be late again.

Apologies. If you will excuse me.

Appa also said the mark of a true gentleman is honesty.

Apparently hoping to marry this season,

Apparently I needed less skill to dig my American mines

Apparently not. Have you found a wife yet?

Apparently. [chuckles]

Are at present standing at that altar, I simply do not have the time.

Are ledgers of the estate's accounts.

Are swallowing the story about the wedding being halted due to

Are the demands of the day affecting your game, Brother?

Are the young ladies of London truly so easily won

Are we all in agreement?

Are we not overlooking the benefit of this… tragedy?

Are we to empty our own chamber pots too?

Are we to stand around deliberating all day, or shall we play?

Are you all right?

Are you and the modiste still, uh, making a stitch?

Are you bothered by him, Mama?

Are you certain no one saw you?

Are you certain we've not received

Are you certain?

Are you feeling unwell?

Are you getting in the way?

Are you going to ask me to dance?

Are you going to say yes?

Are you here to tell me you are going to marry him or not?

Are you in a losing mood?

Are you ladies not always writing letters?

Are you listening to me? What do you have in your hand?

Are you looking forward to being a mother?

Are you mad?

Are you not alone yourself?

Are you often in that part of town?

Are you planning another foray into the ring?

Are you quite serious?

Are you quite serious?

Are you sending flowers to the Sharmas again?

Are you so miserable, my lady?

Are you speaking of Mr. Sharpe again, El?

Are you still planning to leave for India?

Are you still up?

Are you that fool?

Are you thinking of wearing that one?

Are you to rely on your brothers as your solution?

Are you trying to ruin us all?

Are you… Are you still feeling upset by the viscount's lack of action?

As a diamond.

As a way of learning from the lectures?

As always, Your Majesty, I am humbled

As am I.

As are you… to me.

As did mine.

As do I. Though I dare say. It is not quite so peaceful

As do you, it seems.

As does Kate.

As Eloise would no doubt remind me.

As far away from their next wicket as you would like.

As foolish as it is for you to be poking around like this

As for every other eager chit you pushed in my direction,

As I have told you, once the new Lord Featherington arrives,

As I know, there are several errors in your arguments

As I now

As I told you.

As if he would ever waste his ink on someone like you.

As if I needed the embarrassment.

As if I would allow dear Augie to miss out on watching his mother

As if love had become some…

As if the day could get any more unfortunate.

As if you contrived a match for your own concealed ends

As if you truly care what I would like to do.

As is, apparently, the coalman.

As it finally gave me some time to read a few articles of substance.

As it hardly seems you can afford to drive away any more patrons.

As it is clear I am of no help.

As it was at that dinner.

As much as you love yours.

As one makes one's bed,

As she will already be regarded as an old maid at the mature age of…

As should you.

As something of a gatekeeper.

As though I am taking what is rightfully yours.

As though my life were not my own.

As to accompany me on a turn around the lake?

As viscountess at Aubrey Hall.

As well as both the Sharmas and Bridgertons,

As well as the conditions of the track,

As will his.

As you said, it is her future.

At a cost to Miss Thompson. To my brother.

At a mere six and twenty?

At any given moment.

At her first official ball, and look how well her season turned out.

At hiding their true feelings from everyone in public this far.

At least he is young.

At least I did something.

At least it is the men who are making fools of themselves this time.

At least just shave, will you?

At least Lady Whistledown does not seem to be writing about it.

At least not in real life.

At least offer me that.

At least she did not see fit to dress you as a sunflower.

At least the elder Sharma's opinion

At least try not to insult her entire sex in the process.

At least we gave a memorable farewell party.

At least, not on my behalf.

At least, not while we are clothed.

At long last, the queen has named her most precious stone.

At more things than you and Father will ever know.

At present are the only ones who know the full truth of the matter.

At the ball. Tomorrow night.

At the palace where we used to live.

At the Royal Academy Schools.

At the very least, it will allow me a little more time to

Attempting to influence others as to the correct course of action, well,

Aubrey Hall holds many such memories for me as well.

Back from courting already.

Back to taking the tea, are we?

Baseless accusations, I cannot imagine,

Be funny and brave and feeling.

Be honest with your sister,

Be the sister I know that you are.

Be unafraid to follow your heart after doing the exact opposite

Beating you feels the same as any other win

Beautiful smiles.

Beautiful, indeed.

Because an opportunity presents itself does not mean you should take it.

Because every time you lose, you claim we cheated.

Because he wishes to make us suffer.

Because I am alone?

Because I am courting her. Because I've decided.

Because I am unsure I like the young ladies we've both been playing.

Because I cannot imagine my life without you,

Because I happen to believe a lady's business is her own.

Because I have lived a life.

Because I have never heard you like that.

Because I have not given up.

Because I know my duties.

Because I must write to my men to obtain the latest report.

Because I wish for you two to know the joy of an exceptional marriage.

Because I, too, have been… [sighs]

Because if there's trouble on the horizon, I cannot be associated.

Because it is precisely that situation that is prompting him.

Because of your deficient manners rather than any other sin.

Because our feeble minds might collapse if we put too many ideas in them.

Because real, true love is worth it.

Because she is aggravating!

Because she married beneath her station?

Because she was someone I had already dismissed.

Because she will never know Edmund's laugh.

Because that kind of love,

Because the man is as cruel as can be.

Because the moment we go…

Because these days, I am the housekeeper, lady's maid, scullery maid, and cook.

Because this feeling that plagues us so, it will pass.

Because this was personal.

Because we are dancing.

Because you have been reading too much Whistledown.

Because you two cannot get along?

Because you vex me!

Because your future will certainly not be found in the past with me.

Because, one way or another, these kind of feelings

Because… [panting]

Because… I am apparently free.

Because… you love me?

Before

Before Cressida Cowper becomes your new mama.

Before everyone wishes to stop associating with him and his family altogether.

Before he makes his mess all over these fine carpets?

Before it is the cause of any more strife.

Before our greatest of challenges.

Before stepping back into this world.

Before the rain ends our pursuits.

Before the reality of marriage becomes clear.

Before the two "me's" gang up on him.

Before the week is out, Anthony will need all the help he can get.

Before we discover it has been fruitless all along.

Before what? Before we both finally do something for ourselves?

Before you both rule this kingdom

Before you do,

Before you even touched the trigger, I'm afraid.

Behind my pen.

Being cast out by the only family I had ever known.

Being driven to distraction every time you enter the room.

Benedict has his artistic pursuits.

Benedict honors me by holding nothing back.

Benedict, dear, you alarm our guests.

Benedict, see that he is well.

Benedict, something has apparently arrived for you.

Benedict, you must excuse us. It seems the duchess has opinions.

Besides, he's your fourth cousin, nonetheless.

Besides, it is in safekeeping at Aubrey Hall.

Besides, one could almost credit me myself

Besides, the ton has a remarkably short memory.

Besides, you heard Lady Danbury. She will smooth everything over.

Best of luck to you, Brother.

Best of luck.

Between my family

Beyond description.

Bien sûr!

Body and soul

Bon… [scoffs]

Books?

Bored by the lack of any real gossip.

Bored gentlemen with too much time and money on their hands.

Both Lady Bridgerton and I are in agreement

Both of you. Could you, uh [chuckles]

Boxing is not for all to enjoy.

Brava!

Breathe in the fragrant air. It has always helped me.

Bride and groom declare intention alone,

Bridgerton.

Bridgerton. I do not doubt it.

Bridgerton. Tessa. Mind if I join you?

Brimsley.
