Pod and Prejudice

Emma Chapters 39-41


Listen Later

Lots of shenanigans in this week's chapters! Frank rescues Harriet from a dramatic encounter, and Emma gets ideas. Harriet is FINALLY over Elton and she burns the band-aid to prove it! Knightley develops a theory about Frank Churchill's intentions. Topics discussed include shitty gifts from our exes, regency era dudebros, regency era Bananagrams, and being team Knighthouse.

Study questions: Topics discussed include the purpose of the mugging, Harriet's decision to never marry, Knightley's POV, Jane and Frank, Frank's intentions with Emma.

Funniest quote: "From that day to this, I never mentioned it to a soul that I know of. At the same time, I will not positively answer for my having never dropt a hint, because I know I do sometimes pop out a thing before I am aware. I am a talker, you know; I am rather a talker; and now and then I have let a thing escape me which I should not. I am not like Jane; I wish I were. I will answer for it she never betrayed the least thing in the world."

Questions moving forward: Who does Knightley love? What is going on between Frank and Jane? What about Mr. Martin???

Who wins the chapters? Mr. Knightley
