대본

Panel 1: In a quiet lamplit corner of the hallway, Jane holds a small torn-out notebook page in both hands, reading it, her face carefully composed and breaking anyway. JANE: 'She wrote — don't be angry, by the time you read this we'll be together.' Panel 2: A two-shot from the side. Lizzie has gone very still, arms folded, staring at Jane; Jane looks up at her. LIZZIE: 'Together with who?' JANE: 'George.'

이미지 설명

Jane reads Lydia's handwritten note aloud in the hallway while Lizzie, arms crossed, asks who Lydia has run off with.

이 챕터에 대해

Lizzie comes home from the ruined weekend to a house with every light burning and nobody answering their phone. Lydia is gone — a note, no address, and George Wickham. What follows is the longest week of Lizzie's life: her mother collapsed and operatic in a darkened bedroom, Kitty confessing she knew and said nothing, Mary reaching for something profound at exactly the wrong moment, and her father — dry, unbothered Mr. Bennet — putting on a coat and driving into the city to find his youngest daughter himself. Lizzie carries the worst of it alone: she is the only one who knew exactly what George Wickham is, and she chose to keep a confidence instead of warning her family. Three days of unanswered calls later her father comes home empty-handed and years older, and it is her aunt Maddie and uncle Ed who take the search over. In a 2 a.m. kitchen Lizzie finally tells Jane the whole truth — that George has done this before, to a girl younger than Lydia — and at her dark window she lets go of the last thing she was hoping for: Darcy has seen exactly what her family is now, and that is the end of that. Then the phone she has not put down all week lights up with her uncle's name. They found Lydia. She is safe. And someone else got there first.
