00:04She is ready for you, Mrs. Bridgerton.
00:14I hope you return with something of value this time, Mrs. Bridgerton.
00:20I do. An apology.
00:23Last time I was here, I spoke at length about feeling trapped by Whistledown.
00:28But it was thoughtless of me to say that to you of all people, Your Majesty.
00:32I do not need an apology, Mrs. Bridgerton.
00:36I want gossip.
00:38I want to know what is going on with Benedict Bridgerton.
00:41The truth is, I do not know.
00:44Now that I am known publicly, I am avoided like the plague by anyone with any real gossip.
00:51Because for everyone in the ton, Whistledown functions just as this palace does for you.
00:58It keeps them trapped, watched, scrutinized.
01:03I am certain for you that Whistledown is one of your only ways of living in the outside world.
01:08But knowing what it feels like to be so confined,
01:12would it not be pleasant to give society a reprieve?
01:15To allow them to simply live their lives the way they wish, without fear?
01:40How did they react?
01:42The news certainly put the ball into disarray, Your Majesty.
01:44Just as I hoped, you have upstaged Lady Penwood.
01:51Very well.
01:53I look forward to seeing what you will write next, Mrs. Bridgerton.
01:58And you will bring me any gossip you might hear from time to time?
02:03Of course, Your Majesty.
02:07I am most grateful for your blessing, thank you.
02:14You may go.
02:20Lady Danbury.
02:30Your Majesty.
