The chapters that break Molly's brain. We go with three chapters instead of four this week, as these are MEATY chapters.

Chapter 13: Guess who's coming to dinner? It's Mr. Collins, the man to whom Longbourn is entailed. Check out some info on entails/fee-tails here. We also dig into the Anglican church. We don't love Collins's motices for coming to visit. Highlights include: filial scruples, Becca's Collins impersonation, Lady Catherine de Bourgh, Simple Plan, women staying out of the kitchen, and full-hard incest.

Chapter 14: Casual not-tense-at-all dinner conversation. Highlights include Mr. Collins as Tahani Al-Jamil, Baby de Bourgh's low Dungeons and Dragons score, Fordyce's Sermons, and Becca's career in audiobook narration.

Chapter 15: Being in possession of a good fortune, Mr. Collins is now in want of a wife. We follow the girls to Meryton and meet TWO MORE new characters--Wickham and Mrs. Phillips. There's some tension between Wickham and Darcy that even Jane notices. Highlights include: Molly discovers Pride and Prejudice was written in 2013, Pompous Nothings and Civil Assents, Darcy and Bingley on a horse (together), Mary's bug collection, and Mulan.

Study Questions:

Collins, Wickham, and Mrs. Phillips: Wickham is full of potential, Collins is their annoying cousin, and Mrs. Phillips is Molly's new favorite character.

Lady Catherine de Bourgh and her daughter: Molly guesses that Baby de Bourgh is going to be competition for the Bennet girls. She is currently shipping Collins and Baby de Bourgh. She thinks Catherine de Bourgh would be played by Gwenyth Paltrow.

The face of the inheritance drama: We are STRESSED that one of the daughters may have to marry Collins to keep their estate. Molly does not hate him.

Darcy and Wickham--what's UP? Is it a feud over a woman? Is it a feud over money? Molly starts by guessing that they're distant relatives whose families have been feuding for decades, then decides Wickham stole Darcy's girlfriend when they were in high school.

What's gonna happen at dinner? Kydia will be in heaven with all the officers. Molly predicts that Wickham and Jane are gonna get it on while Bingley is away.

Funniest quote: Collins says, "They arise chiefly from what is passing at the time, and though I sometimes amuse myself with suggesting and arranging such little elegant compliments as may be adapted to ordinary occasions, I always wish to give them as unstudied an air as possible."

Biggest question: What the fuck happened between Darcy and Wickham???

Who wins the chapters? Mrs. Phillips!
