Bridgerton Season 3 Episode 1 Recap
The season starts when the Featherington family comes back to London. They make a colorful entry that stands out against the city’s focus on Lady Whistledown’s latest publication, which lists this year’s debutantes for the marriage market.
At the same time, the Bridgerton home is very busy with excitement as Francesca Bridgerton gets ready to make her debut in public. Benedict sees how calm Francesca is, but The Bridgerton family matriarch, Violet (Ruth Gemmell) knows something is wrong when Francesca plays Mozart’s Funeral March on the piano, which seems like a strange choice for a debutante.
When Kate and Anthony Bridgerton get back from their vacation, everyone is looking at Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton), who has changed a lot while he was in Europe. London’s women are smitten by his renewed confidence and charm. Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan), who is struggling with her feelings, watches from afar.
But Penelope misses both Colin and her friend Eloise (Claudia Jessie), whom she hasn’t seen in a while and who seems to have replaced Penelope with Cressida Cowper. Penelope feels even more alone because of how tense their relationship is.
Queen Charlotte is looking at the debutantes, and Francesca gets her eye. At the same time, Colin’s flirting makes the whole room feel good. Penelope, meanwhile, hangs out with her sisters Philippa and Prudence, who are married. They fight over whose wedding was more beautiful.
Lord Featherington left a will that says the family land will go to the first-born son of whichever daughter has an heir first. Portia Featherington (Polly Walker) shows this will. Philippa and Prudence are excited about this news, but it makes them wonder if the paper is real.
At a party, Colin loves the attention of his fans, which makes Penelope feel alone and embarrassed. Penelope’s pain grows when she has a fight with Colin and remembers what he said about never married someone like her in the past. Eloise and Cressida become close, even though Penelope is having trouble. But because Cressida is jealous, she ruins Penelope’s dress on purpose, which makes a scene at the party.
At the end of the show, Penelope decides to change how she looks to look more refined. But her meeting with Eloise ends in sadness because Eloise won’t forgive her. There are also new plots in this episode, like Alice Mondrich’s surprise inheritance and Colin’s offer to help Penelope feel better about herself. At the end of the show, Penelope writes a horrible article about Colin for Lady Whistledown’s column. She doesn’t know that Eloise now knows her secret.
