See y'all next month for Part 2 👋
Of course, we're all anticipating it. ❤
Colin didn't lie, he didn't court Penelope Featherington. He skipped that step altogether 😂
I think that's the best part he didn't have to officially court with her because they did it in a more natural way....by being friends first....
just like his mom said...it's rare! And it's there for them! I'm glad they did it that way for their story!
Just wish this whole LW thing wasn't hanging over his head and him having to be mad at her about it....she needs to be able to tell him that she wrote about Marina out of her love for him! She needs to tell him in a love confession of how she has always loved him...I would love to see that play out because that would make him melt!
@@EmotionalFlowerBloomingomg yess would love to see a confession like this from her
True😂😂😂. But totally changed his 'Iam a gentleman' thing from Miss Thompson's time 😅
@@neethusoman253 Yeah now he has to go "I... WAS a gentleman."
@@SpookyBibi24 Runs in the family🤣 Benedict gonna follow his brothers as well, if it goes by the book😉
“THINGS ESCALATED SO QUICKLY” should’ve been the actual title of the episode 😭
Amen
good job bro they took your advice 😂
it changed 😂
What was the title before?
@@dejareve5288 Pretty sure they were talking about the actual episode name, not the reaction video.
Colin is so down bad, that’s what that facial expression was 🤣🤌🏻
Literallly!!! Mans was in AWE!
Yes! Down ASTRONOMICALLY and I love that for him
It was a mix of relief and stunned lustfulness
Down bad crying at the gym
srsly, it's a gdamn spiritual awakening for the boy, he's seeing stars in that moment
Hahaha! I love the "What was that face? I did not like that face!" My dudes. Trust me, that face is fairly accurate. You all think you look suave in those moments. You all look like this. Thankfully, we think it looks hot when you've lost your mind enough to not put on the suave mask. That being said, watching your reactions has been great!
lol a dude I dated a long time ago made this exact face when I ran my fingers through his hair, they don't know how goofy they look and how sexy it is in the moment, we're just lucky we don't have cameras in our faces while it's happening
Ugh it’s so true. That face was SO hot to me - that’s what people mean when they say this show is all about the female gaze. Seeing him let his barriers down and be slightly submissive at Penelope’s touch… ugh 🥵
This fact not being well known to mainstream comedy is just a testament to how women respect guys to keep it on the downlow.
Married my husband because of his goofy face when we were in a similar position.
Nothing sexier than a man who can be had by his woman, in the best of ways of course.
Anyone else glad when Penn finally calls out her mom for not caring more?
I know I am. She's been a terrible mother to Penelope, relentlessly belittling and bullying her since season 1 with the help of her other two daughters. I'll admit she is a strong and resilient female character, always trying her best to provide for her daughters and protect them, but she sure as hell doesn't know how to love them right. Especially Penelope.
I was glad, really glad
Can’t wait for the Colin & Portia bitch off 😂
I feel like that moment being immediately followed by Prudence showing up and telling her she's pregnant and saying, "Are you not happy?" says everything about Portia's relationships with her daughters. They're STARVED of maternal love, which is why Prudence and Phillipa have this toxic rivalry between them, and the only time they get along is when they're bullying Pen. Portia's been so concerned about her family's material needs that she's failed to take care of them in literally every other way. Pen only turned out okay because she got unconditional love from the Bridgertons.
It's funny because she was nice to her own child for like five minutes. I can't stand parents like her
"You better FIX THIS before we have to wait a month."
I swear I said the same thing. 😂
20:15 People, do you understand how rude and improper Colin's move was? I was in TOTAL SHOCK. Stealing someone else's dancing partner but IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SONG, AT DANCE FLOOR? Colin is WILD
boy isn't even thinking straight by this point, even minus the carriage situation taking place it'd already be a scandal to act like this in the middle of a public ballroom
I was also in total shock! Colin abandoned all social rules and propriety doing that! Not to mention he totally snubbed Debling by not addressing or acknowledging him or anything! Quoting violet "COLIN BRIDGERTON!"
@@practicaldreamyrExact!! Besides, I think he thought "last time I didn't do anything, let me take her dancing."
he was in a now or never moment, because if he didn't say anything, he was going to lose her.
@@SophieSon Colin "Unhinged" Bridgerton, and we love him for that
@@practicaldreamyr This is way "Chaotic Colin Bridgerton" is a real tag in ao3
that face colin did after penelope touched his hair... a LOT of us really liked it. that face has tiktok and twitter screaming and crying, doing cartwheels.
i was sweating when he did
Based on men's reactions to that scene, I don't think most of them understand how goofy they look irl during those types of moments. It's so accurate it's uncomfortable. Such an excellent performance by both Nicola and Luke here!
@@practicaldreamyr facts
I loved it too
@@practicaldreamyr 💯
I love that over and over in the carriage scene he’s asking for consent. Even just to get in the carriage. But every step he stops and waits for her to nod. Good active consent representation.
And it's so hot!!!
Yes, and if you watch his expressions closely, even after they get down to it he's checking with her throughout and only relaxes when he makes sure she's enjoying it. Immaculate energy from Colin, 10 out of 10 no notes.
Rob getting mad at Colin, and saying he has to fix this with Penelope before we have to wait a month is so real.
100%
Watching 3 dudes get hype over the plot of a romance show is the best. Also, props to Rob for saying he likes 2 good men being interested in Penelope. Loved that comment.
The way Colin fixed Penelope's dress without touching it with all fingers, sheesh 😩
I just commented the same 🥵🥵🥵
The was the actor's idea that he brought to the director.
Luke newton idea too! 😍❣️
@@AnnaB22I saw that!
Yeah, hardcore blush 😅
Not the main point of the episodes but I love Violet Bridgerton’s look when she sees one of her kids falling in love. Last episode with Colin asking about love and friendship, this episode when she sees Francesca playing the revised melody. The joy she gets from seeing her babies happy just warms my heart ❤
I saw someone on Twitter mention that Colin and Pen must remind her most of her own marriage given that she and Edmund also went from friends to lovers and my heart just exploded.
nah her face in the trailer for part2 when they tell the family they are engaged is so joyful. i love mama bridgerton.
She is the ultimate wingwoman!
I know! This is why I want her to get a little lovin' the next season! She deserves it!!
i kept hearing FOR MONTHS about some carriage scene that happens in the book, so as soon as Colin opened that door, i knew what was about to go down, but i still wasn't FULLY prepared for that😭🤭
as someone who’s read the book, I wasn’t even prepared either🤣🤣
Lol I've reread the carriage scene many times and I wasn't prepared for that. Not sure if I'm a fan of it.
We’re probably getting another carriage scene! This scene wasn’t in the books.
literally
I don't think it goes that far I the book or does it?
"No they don't be doing that on this show" famous last words Bryce
Perfect example of the female gaze. Love the face he makes when she grabs his hair!! 😂
Only correction I’d make to your reaction is that when Debling tells Penelope that he’s happy she has such a full life while they are dancing, she’s not thinking he’s just so nice, she’s questioning whether she could be happy with a life without love. Penelope grew up reading romance novels, she’s always dreamed of finding a passionate love and now she’s asking herself if a life of platonic companionship, financial security and an escape from her mom will be enough to satisfy her. I mean the man just told her that he doesn’t think he’ll ever grow to love her because his work means too much to him. He’s nice, and certainly it’s a desirable outcome for the time, but it’s hardly an exciting prospect if you dream of love.
Not only that, he's about to leave for 3 years on a potentially perilous journey. She'd probably have a 50/50 shot of ending up a widow, with no kids. She'd have wealth & loneliness.
Exactly and this is why him going on to say that he can't be with someone whose affections are elsewhere doesn't make sense. Dude, you were literally telling her that you weren't sure you could grow to love her, but then simply because your ego is bruised, you suddendly care about love and feelings??? Make it make sense! Good riddance, Penelope deserves better than a practical marriage. She deserves true love!
@@alexism3142 exactly!
@@alexism3142I assumed he thinks that because he knows he’ll be gone so often that he assumes she’d eventually have an affair and his pride and reputation as a man (lol) in this society would be ruined but idk
@@alexism3142 I think he means that there's a difference between marrying someone in a practical match without love vs marrying someone actively in love with a third party. He needs a partner he can leave behind confidently without concerns of fidelity and loyalty. Ruthless but fair enough. Cressida and him would go together well!
Pen craves and deserves all the love in the world though. Debblings just not it for her!
I mean, Daphne and the Duke got engaged in ep 4 and they only met at the start of that season, meanwhile Pen and Colin already knew each other since childhood so they didn't really need to get to know each other as much as just change their dynamic to include more physical and emotional intimacy. Pen, of course, was already open for that, and as for Colin, that first kiss in ep 2 was his awakening.
Both s1 and s3 have conflicts that last until after they get together, which is good bc people in romance sometimes believe the final step is marriage and then happily ever after. S2 was the odd one of the 3 since their only conflict was the thing stopping them from being together
@@heyitsmira17 Exactly!
@@heyitsmira17 there’s still 4 more episodes left and there will be the conflict about Colin finding out pen is whistledown.
Y’all saying you dont like how Colin made that face when Pen touched his hair meanwhile girls everywhere screaming over it lol guys just dont get it 😂😂😂
LMFAALAOO same! that face he made made every girl squel
@@rosa_stars349 I’m still trying to recover I get butterflies everytime😂😂
@@victoriak1866 I think it’s because he looks so helpless over her touch, like fully vulnerable to the point he has no control over his face
I'm with them, I hated it and I'm a woman😅. I think I would have appreciated it more if it wasn't made by Colin, I just can't find him sexy which is weird because I think the actor is fine IRL.
What is so interesting to me is the things the guys notice and like and what the women are focusing on. Like I haven't heard women talk about the Benedict love story at all. They like it while I find it boring. Yet the guys are interested in that one! LOL On other stuff I love that they making fun of Colin constantly gazing! its TRUE!
Colin may talk (at length) about his travels, and even that he met women, but you never see him talking about having sex with them. He dislikes the way the other lords talk because he's respectful, and kind, and a good person. These are strengths, not weaknesses.
Colin's gazes convey his longing, but he has been, up to this point, a guy who doubts himself so much, he was pretending to be someone completely different. I don't think they could make this any clearer. Penelope/LW, Eloise and Violet call him out on it, and even Colin himself admits it.
The carriage scene is a lesson in consent. He only gets in after she says yes, he makes sure she's not engaged before telling her how he feels, and he takes things further only after she nods yes.
We're not supposed to know what's the deal with Marcus yet, but the way they focus on him and Violet, he's probably not a bad person (I hope).
John and Francesca are not "weird", they're just different. I saw someone saying they could be neurodivergent, which would be amazing.
Cressida's crazy costumes are an allusion to caged birds, especially when she's in her mausoleum of a house, because she's under total control of her shitty parents. That likely influences, but does not justify, her behavior.
I believe it has been said by the author that Franny is autistic. Or implied to be. Which I think makes perfect sense.
This is a lovely analysis. I haven't read the books but what you say makes me wonder. The lord who likes animals and such, maybe it's symbolism for him to fall in love with the "caged bird"? And free the caged bird from her prison? I never thought I would warm to Cressida but I do hope she finds happiness.
@@LiaRaye I hadn't thought of that, but I think it would be great. I'm not her biggest fan, either, but she's not at all the only character who makes mistakes in the series. Like the actress who portrays her said (I forgot her name), I do hope Cressida gets a happy ending.
25:15 guys, that look on Colin's face was **EVERYTHING**! That is deep love and passion and I love that they showed it coming from him. He was in awe of her and the fact that she was finally touching him (that it wasn't a mere dream). She, too, was clearly fulfilling what was likely a long-held desire to run her hands through his hair. That was a wish fulfillment for the both of them. I assure you a majority of women would love it if their man made that facial expression.
Cindy, I tried to say exactly this on patreo lol but you did it so much better. Exactly THIS!!
It’s the face the “Colin Stare” was hiding lol
Well said!
A lot of viewers don't seem to consider the social norms of the time - it was highly unlikely he'd ever been touched like that before, and certainly not by someone he loved. Members of the opposite sex weren't even allowed to touch hands without being covered by gloves. His expression is one of pure wonder, awe and amazement. I love it. It's a beautiful moment in the show and I think both actors absolutely knocked it out of the park. I'm on pins and needles waiting for Part 2!
Colin is definitely thinking, "She's a goddess", like in the book. Nicola Coughlan said in an interview that the hair stylist on set was constantly making sure Colin's (Luke Newton) hair was perfect. She asked could she reach out and touch his hair and at first was told no, but she fought for that because that was something she felt Penelope would definitely do. 🥰 It's such a fantastic moment. They knocked it out of the park. 🤩
I guess Colin really does focus on the needs of others first. Good for Pen.
calling the first four episodes of this season Colin's Gaze is WILD 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's why the books are fun, so you and hear the inner dialog behind all those gazes
yeah..like the inner monologue when he kisses her the first time...'it was glorious' @@kellyvalence5323
@@piya6929one of my favorite scenes in the book cuz it’s literally 5 pages of Colin’s world breaking over kissing Pen!💙😌
I find it interesting that the guys find Colin’s expressions at 25:22 weird while women went feral because of that expression 😂😂😂 IT WOKE SOMETHING IN US FOR SURE
Lol. I found it weird too
Rob: “I’m really hoping that we get another kiss this episode!”
Us: 👀👀👀
There's an interesting discussion about what Debling's travels truly mean. In this episode, he mentions the Northwest Passage, an extremely dangerous one many travelers tried to brave. Most never came back, and those who did had a lot of turmoil. It was a travel of hubris. Even Debling being a vegetarian could be a reference to this, considering trips North were notorious for having meat as a source of nutrition (how would one preserve vegetables?). Which brings us to Penelope. Penelope was the name of Odysseus' wife, waiting for him even as it took a decade for him to return from the Trojan War, tricking suitors so she could remain faithful and not remarry. Her name and the references suggest that, if she were to marry Debling, not only he might never fall for her but he was leaving for three years and most likely dying there. If he did, proving his death would be difficult. There were ships lost around that passage that were only found recently. Which means she would be lost in limbo, forever a widow. She wouldn't be able to remarry until his death was confirmed.
Colin, while completely unhinged, breaking all society protocols and grabbing her mid-dance, probably saved her from a life alone without love.
i guess that could also alude to the fact that Cressida might marry Dublin...as Cressida becomes a young widow in the books
Woah that's so cool! If you think about it. It would make for a great story if Penelope and Colin's relationship happened after Penelope is stuck in this 'limbo' because it is assumed he is dead. Then he miraculously reappears alive after all this time. Haha, would make for good drama
I thought Debling was acting pretty selfishly. He wants to get married but then disappear for years. Then why does he need a wife? And then the woman should only love him?
What if he gets her pregnant on her wedding night? Then she gets to go through all of this alone without knowing if he'll ever come back?
No, Colin is right. That's not a good husband. Not for any woman, but especially not for Pen...
There is only one man who can make her happy 🥰
@@chloeloveful I reckon it's to secure a heir for his property incase he dies. Those journeys are pretty dangerous. Also, lack of loyalty from his wife means that his estate is in risky hands. He doesn't expect her to love him, just to not have affections elsewhere. He is pretty selfish but he's been honest about it, he has not once lied about not being able to give love. Considering a lot of people married for convenience rather than love back in those days, I think his offer is pretty reasonable considering his wealthy background.
"I hope we get another kiss"
Oh honey you gotta big storm coming 😅
I have really enjoyed seeing male viewers’ reaction videos and getting the male perspective. And especially loved that all three of y’all were 100% caught up in the story and the romance between Pen and Colin, and not a single negative remark about her appearance, given some recent hateful body shaming comments that people are hearing about and that costars have been defending her on (deservedly so). Y’all are gentlemen. Thank you!
💯 this.
People tend to forget this has been building for 2 season alread,y cant wait
Yes! It's like people just closed their eyes for 2 seasons and decided that this happened out of the blue. 🤦♀️
Right!?
@@emilybanks5055ikr
I loved season 2 with every breath on my body but if every storyline was that kind of slow burn, it’ll be so repetitive and it wouldn’t feel nice anymore.
They laid the foundation for two whole seasons. These aren’t just two characters that have been just introduced…. We’ve known them and we’ve been waiting. The only way to move is FAST!!!!!
Yeah. they were already friends, and then once Colin realised he fully went for it because his core personality is to have absolutely no chill lol
Colin folded after 1 kiss. Pen has liked him for years and almost lost him in S1
The face Colin makes when Penelope touches his hair is everything... It's like her touch made him reach Nirvana, pure bliss, eternal love. He's overwhelmed with love and lust. Luke Newton, the actor, did an amazing job.
The big giant smiles and stunned reactions throughout the carriage scene had ME grinning like an idiot 😂
I love that you guys are so into this that you've been subconsciously rating wigs in your head. When Queen Charlotte's final wig came on screen, it was UNDENIABLE that it was the top wig in Bridgerton series history. We saw a clip of it on social media ahead of time, but nothing prepared me for it!
Omg that wig!
Also, I don't know if you guys know, but those were swans in the wig. Swans mate for life.
Colin didn't court Penelope. He just went straight to proposing.
15:24 If I can point it out, it was impacting and touching because it was a performance of Eros and Psyque, which is considered the most romantic story in the whole greek mythology
I've heard about analysing Polin with an Eros and Psyche comparaison. I wasn't sure it made sense until someone mentioned Eros tried to arrow Psyche and ended arrowing himself (his arrow make people loving the first person they see)
One of my fave things about the carriage scene is watching other people’s reactions to the carriage scene😆
I love that you guys are rooting for Pen. I laughed so hard when you exclaimed "F*** off Cresida 😅
Two thoughts - 1) the pacing is different because we’ve seen their relationship lead up for 2 seasons already. 2) Colin isn’t wrong…he did “ruin” Lady Whistledown 😉 but he just doesn’t know it yet. Can’t wait for part 2!!
Omg 😂😂😂
😂
Colin Bridgerton never lies and keeps all his promises,
Ruin lady Whistledown Check
NOT court Penelope: check ! Jumped straight to the proposal.
Help find Pen a husband: Double check! It's him he's husband.
Excuses…excuses. The pacing is just bad. The whole season is rushed and that’s because they decided to make Lady Whistledown a whole part when it honestly could have been a side plot. Also there was no build up for two seasons. Penelope pined after him for two seasons and he acted oblivious to it all. He fell in love with her after a kiss be so for real. I understand that happens in the books but there could have been a better build up to him liking her if they didn’t split it into two parts.
@jahnoyawalker4227 He likes her before the kiss. When he decides to go to the ball, he flashes back to when she bandages his hand and they shared a prolonged touch and a look. Because that's what convinces him she might also have feelings for him. After that bandage scene you can see he's visiblely Jealous when she's talking and laughing to with the guy in the wheelchair. He'll they even play the Jealous in the background of that scene and that's all BEFORE the kiss. The build up for them all happened in the first 2 seasons. Yeah Colin is obvious but there is still build up. They already know each other and take care of each other. Colin takes so many liberties there's no wonder people thought he was courting her. And then Penelope didn't write back to him for a few months and he spiraled so effing hard he came back trying to be someone else. He told her season 2 that her letters kept him grounded and he lost that ground before season 3. He also had decided to take care of her.
Yes the kiss opened his eyes for real. His journal entry was about being surrounded by woman and how he can be physically intimate but still felt distant and lonely. And just kissing Penelope he finally had both the physical and emotional intimacy togther and yeah it blew his mind and drove him crazy.
Placed the last puzzle piece in his relationship with Penelope. She's always the person who believed in him, made him feel appreciated like he said, who he sought out cause he always wanted to see and be around her. And he does this in the other seasons, too.
He was really lonely on his travels despite everything. (You can find some of his journal pages online) The first time he left him and Penelope wrote to each other. And it meant a lot to him. This time he was incredibly lonely and clearly missed her. He only shared about his travels with her when he came back, he lost his way without her, he was literally looking for excuses to be around her this season and then the kiss finally helped him really understand his feelings.
If he says later on that he was always in love with her and didn't realize it I wouldn't be surprised at all. Even just the way he looked at her sometimes in the first 2 seasons. Especially 2.
i adore francesca and john so much already i can't wait to see more of them
😳 She is rude and ridiculous and I know nothing about him because he only mumbled ten words but yeah sure adore way
@@MearnieToon franchesca is rude? no she's not!
@@MearnieToonjesus bitter much?
@MearnieToon it takes emotional intelligence to recognize what a good match they are. They have a different kind of chemistry that isn't blatant on a surface level to some onlookers.
@@MearnieToon idk about rude and ridiculous. If anything she reads as neurodivergent, and there’s nothing rude or ridiculous about that.
This makes so much sense! Colin has always loved her and now that he knows he desires her, it's game on. He had always loved her, he knows her, and he wants her in his life...i love that he plays no games with himself or with her and they did dragged this. Colin knows what he wants and goes for it.
I love the fact that you guys are such romantics! The smile on Bryce's face was fantastic. 😂😂😂
All of Colin's traveling abroad paid off. Penelope got hers!
it is A CRIME the fact that we have to wait almost a month for part two!!!
I was breathless when he did that face. That's a huuungry boy. Ahahahah, every time you see it irl you know you're about to have some fuuuuun.
SCREAMING over him only using a few fingers to fix her dress at the end 😍😍😍😍 he doesn't want to dirty her dress 😏🥵
A choice by Luke himself. He knows what he is doing❤️🔥
And then his LEFT hand extended to help her down from the carriage.
I cannot tell you how much fun it is to see how invested all of you have been in each season of Bridgerton! It's one of my favorite reactions to a series that I've ever watched. You guys are all so funny and sweet!
I hear or read somewhere that Luke and Nicola didn’t hear the direct yell cut in that carriage scene so they just kept going and going and then they kept rolling and that’s how we got this hot piece of cinema 👏🏼👏🏼
The Bridgerton Boys are GIVERS 👏💦
Yessssss they are! Whew, from Anthony and his oral pleasures with Kate to Colin and his hand pleasure with Pen....I need a Bridgerton man in my life! 🤣🔥
You three singing along in unison to Give Me Everything had me cracking up 😆
"I hope they finish this part with a kiss"
Us that saw it before: Oh boy...
The Queen's hair with the moving glass swans is now my number 1 favorite.
Your guys' faces during the carriage scene. 😂
So, everyone is talking about Colin's facial expression of clear ecstasy....so are we going to ignore Pen's look of triumph after that??? My girl has been waiting to be in THAT situation for a LONG time and the look on her face, knowing that she was evoking that type of response and vulnerability from someone she never DREAMED she would be with?!? I just love those two....❤ 🔥 ❤
Pen and Colin: rocking the carriage to Pitbull playing in the background
The guys:🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺
🔊🔊🔊
When Colin got (sooo jealous) to grab her breast and they went TONi👀👀👀👀👀👀 at the same time
"Comeon Colin, you cannot be saying this shit without saying how you feel about her." Spot on.
I'm so obsessed with COLIN and PEN, their chemistry.🔥🔥
Omg "the look" was everything!!! That emotional connection he wasn't finding with all his "encounters". In that moment he felt it with Pen
That look wasn't hot and we love it ❤
Not one person has been going insane over the way he grabbed her waist lmao that hunger to feel her was palpable and my absolute favorite bit. It looks like y'all missed his fingers when he pulled her dress back up though lol
I love Rob’s face when a couple shocks him with salacious behavior. I need these guys to watch Beautiful Disaster.
The way I kept refreshing your channel all day to see when you post this.
I NEED to see your reaction to the carriage scene, sleep can wait. 😂
Colin admitting he wanted more than just casual sex and his friends laughing at him for it was so real. Men are so often mocked for saying they want emotional connection with their sex lives.
The Lady Wistledown of it all is a big deal. Instead of Pen taking Colin aside and telling him that her cousin, Marina, was already pregnant, didn't love him, and was just trying to entrap Colin into marriage to protect herself, she published it for the whole town to know. She also spoiled that Eloise was going around unescorted in shady parts of town too. Not to mention, the shit she talked about Colin at the beginning of the season.
Granted, the things she says are true, and she often has somewhat altruistic motives, but the truly good thing would be to handle it privately. Instead, she hurts people publicly. Pen spilling people's secrets is going to be a BIG problem for Colin. I haven't read the books though
Let's just say it's a much bigger deal so far in the series and I'm expecting it to get more dramatic before it's all said and done.
Francesca is very probably neurodivergent (I'd wager autistic, given her singular and focused interest on the pianoforte and how quickly she understands music and composing). John (Kilmartin) is also seemingly neurodivergent. That's why they seem to connect so easily: both are similar, they need quiet and are very introverted. Francesca (or Kilmartin, for that matter) isn't rude, she simply doesn't get social cues and is very frank.
Yes, the more I see them interact together I'm like,"I think these two are neurodivergent, and that's why they click!"
I picked up on that as well, being Autistic myself. There was someone I dated previously who was also Autistic, and our interactions were very similar to Francesca and John's. We could just be quiet together and didn't need to talk all the time. It was super refreshing to not feel like I had to constantly 'mask' around her.
You three young men not identifying with Colin’s friends is super refreshing. It’s nice seeing you three being so tender 🥰🥰🥰
Love how the guy in the pink hat is so giggly after carriage scene haha. All of your reactions are fab to watch.
Lol it was so funny seeing your guys reaction to Colin's gaze in the carriage bc trust the ladies LOVE that gaze. 🤣 Thats yearning 1000% percent.
“We need some action!”
Me: oh, you’ll get some action 😏
Someone in a FB group pointed out that Colin used his thumb and ring finger to put her dress back onto her shoulder. He didn’t use his pointer and middle finger. That was considerate of him 😉.
Leaving here a Brazilian meme about the carriage scene.
We call Colin "DJ COLIN"after this episode and the interpretation of the meme is up to you😂😂
"Downstairs DJ, Colin" lol he's a giver!!!❤
Ah coe kkkkkkkkkkkk
"Vai DJ Colin" eu não paro de rir disso 😁
oh his face in the carriage was everything. They developed their relationship over the seasons & now that Colin figured out that he loved her he did not want to wait any longer which is brilliant.
I love that we are going to get so much time with them as a couple. Even with the LW reveal likely causing drama I just know their relationship will be so good.
I freaking love you wholesome lads enjoying some romance.🥰
Rob : i hope we have another kiss before the break
Me : 👀👀👀
Colin really is Down Bad crying at the club over Pen. One kiss was all it took and then he just couldn't get her out of his head. I think he just finally had that moment of clarity and then he couldn't wait anymore. It deffo escalated quickly but i was happy it did. Hope we get more scenes with them in part 2. As for the look he gives when she strokes his hair in the carriage. I believe this is because of the reverence with which she touches him. He has only been with courtesans in brothels, whom he paid, so none of those encounters had feelings of true intimacy whereas being with Pen is full of emotion, something he hasnt had before. This is alluded to when Pen reads his diary and it says about him being close with other women but still feeling distance. Another great reaction guys, the singsong to pitbull cracked me up 😂 will be back for part 2 ❤
I think there’s so much to the fact that Colin could have any girl, he has his pick of them and he’s chosen Penelope. He wants her more than he wants anyone.
AWESOME REACTION!!! Hit that LIKE button super hard when you ALL started singing "Give me everything tonight!" That was the whole fandom singing along. Love to see men's perspective of Bridgerton and the female gaze. And so happy you all seemed to be on the same page as me! Will definitely tune in to your Part 2 reactions when it drops.
None of us were prepared for that carriage scene ✋
Colin’s brain flew out the window
20:11 zuff got me dead 😂😂😂 he getting all excited LOL I love watching you guys
The carriage scene is from the book. In that time a Gentleman can't do that to a Lady without marrying her. It would ruin her reputation otherwise.
And Colin is a Gentleman. He knows that exactly and he knew it before he startet. He loves her already so it made sense for him to ask for her hand.
But in books the intimate scene had a other reason to play out and I liked that a bit more.
Now there is that big lie between them an I just wished for Penelope having more happy moments.
Because when he find that out after the enagement, there will be more sad moments for her.
The actors did such a great job here. I believed the feelings between them. There could have been more scenes between Penelope an Colin through this season imo. It's theyre love story and if you don't know the books, you could feel all is moving to fast for the both of them. But it's not.
Bridgerton: Colin's Gaze 🤣 I agree Zuff
27:19 your faces. 😂😂😂
Why they chose a Pitbull’s song? Well, because Colin is a mister Worldwide 😂😂
Nicola Coughlan (c)
Hahahahaha...good one
The og Mr. Worldwide! 🤣 And here I was calling him Traveling Boy (I think Luke Newton said that would be Colin’s IG username).
Rob & Byrce’s face at the end.
It's so funny how you didn't like Colin's face in the carriage (when Pen runs her hand through his hair), but that was the hottest I've ever seen Colin 😂 truly, the female gaze at work!! I rewatched the carriage scene SO MANY times just for that look on his face. He looked absolutely taken apart (in the best way possible).
I love when you guys zoom into reactions of each other! its the funniest
this might be my favorite reaction I’ve seen 😭😭✋🏽✨
You guys understand they have been friends for years since they were kids. They already know each other. Why do some people think it was rushed
DID things really escalate quickly tho...? Pen has been in love with him her whole life..? they been doing what people do while courting all this time...they have more friendship, affection, understanding than most couples. compare s1/2 couples to them it is actually laughable. lord debling met her 4 times and wanted to marry her. we were only waiting for colin to realize his sexual attraction to her and when tht happened yes it escalated fast coz he fell as fast and hard.even then, him admitting his feelings came after stewing in them for weeks, he sat and had a good thought abt it all, talked to his mother for advice and then let his feelings be known and backed it up with intentions. i'll take tht over being called a bane of someones existence only to be called a thorn easily removed from their life 2 days later. things looked fast but u forget he told he'd been missing her in the first episode and it wasnt jst empty words either..? People tend to forget the first 2 seasons buildup. This isnt THINGS ESCALATED QUICKLY, this is the SLOWEST BURN EVER!!!
Louder 📣 for the 🗣️ people in the back! 👏
@@IndieCindy3 📢📢
Thank you! ❤❤
!!!!!!
It's funny that Rob says he doesn't like Colin's face in the carriage when it's all we women talk about, in a good way. 😂
"The fire's still burning. You've got time!"
If Lord Marcus Anderson hurts Mama Bridgerton, I will personally see that he is locked in the tower forever. 🤨
Going to put this comment higher. I don't know if you guys know that the birds that are in the Queens wig are swans. Swans meet for life. It is symbolic of her relationship with King George.
Also, I would like to add that the young female swans are called Pen, and a male is called a Cob, btw so it is too a reverence to Colin and Pen's relationship 😂😂😂
What specialises polin is that they are able to fix everything together alone in a empty place it's like people is no good for their relationship if someone interrupted they will make things worse for them that's why things got ruined at the party but fixed at the carriage alone
23:39
pen: leave me alone.
colin: i cannot.
pen: please!
zuff: please 🥺
Your guys faces....dude😂😂😂😂😂😂 you guys enjoyed every moment of that,dont lie😂😂😂❤❤
I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED this episode. As a book fan it was so worth the wait.
Colin is gonna marry the shit outta Penelope. Wedding can’t come fast for them now after that carriage scene. 😂
i know it's such a small moment in an episode full of crazy ones, but one of my favorite parts of the whole episode is when john stirling turns towards the painting in the bridgerton's drawing room and francesca's face immediately lights up before she follows suit. colin and penelope are a wonderful leading couple, but something about the understated sweetness of francesca and john really gets me
I love seeing men react to Polin. 😊 The look on Colin's face is crazy, but that's how she made him feel. Colin: I'm Pen's b@#$%! 😂
All of you singing is EVERYTHING! 😂
The way your heads popped out when he asked the question 🤣
I actually love the moment where Pen is daydreaming of Colin & staring at him in the library whilst Debling is right next to her. It's the perfect example of two people that are meant to be and can't help themselves.
