Transcript
Character card on a plain warm earth-tone backdrop. Charlotte Lucas — 28, thin tortoiseshell glasses (the only cast member who wears them), dark-brown hair in a low practical ponytail, a chunky knit sweater under a camel blazer, olive trousers and loafers — stands holding a mug in both hands with a dry, level, knowing expression. Lizzie's pragmatic best friend, who chose security over romance. Caption: 'CHARLOTTE LUCAS — A ROOF OVER BUTTERFLIES'

About this chapter
A bonus cast-guide interlude: a clean character-card lineup of everyone in Lizzie Bennet's tangled orbit as of the Ms. de Bourgh estate visit. One portrait per principal with their name and their essence in a single caption — Lizzie the sharp, unbowed protagonist; Darcy the cold man slowly thawing; Jane and Charles, the right people with the wrong timing; George Wickham, warm smile and cold read; Caroline Bingley, insults gift-wrapped; Charlotte Lucas, who chose a roof over butterflies; Mr. Collins, who treats courtship like a sales pitch; the newly arrived Ms. de Bourgh on her throne; and the whole Bennet household — five daughters and one mission. A quick who's-who for new readers and a midpoint snapshot of the whole board before the story turns.
