Panel 1: Lizzie stands with a small group of friends at the party, animated, retelling the story with her hands — making it funny. Panel 2: Close on Lizzie mid-punchline, delighted with herself. Lizzie: "Tolerable! I've been called worse." Panel 3: Her friends laugh hard around her, one covering her mouth. Panel 4: Across the party, Darcy catches the sound of laughter and glances over toward it. Panel 5: Darcy's view across the room — Lizzie laughing in a warm circle of friends, clearly at his expense. Panel 6: Close on Darcy, his expression barely shifting but no longer quite as flat as before. Something registers behind the eyes.

Lizzie retells the insult to her friends as a joke and they laugh hard. Across the party, Darcy hears the laughter, sees that it is at his expense, and something shifts behind his expression.

The assembly party — the night everything starts. Bingley arrives and is instantly adored; Darcy is admired for about half an hour before the whole town decides he is insufferable. Bingley and Jane find each other immediately. When Bingley urges his friend to dance with Lizzie, Darcy calls her tolerable — not handsome enough to tempt him — and Lizzie is close enough to hear every word. She turns it into a joke and tells it all night.
