It's time to find out WHOMST! In this single chapter episode, Colonel Brandon reveals all about his own past and Willoughby's villainy. Topics discussed include the Brandon-Elinor ship, Colonel Brandon's storytelling, dueling, and Hugh Grant as the cast of Sense and Sensibility.

Study Questions: Topics discussed include Brandon's love story, the Economics of Dating for Men in Jane Austen, the stakes in the story, ranting about Willoughby and what his transgressions mean for Marianne.

Favorite quote: "He could say no more, and rising hastily walked for a few minutes about the room. Elinor, affected by his relation, and still more by his distress, could not speak. He saw her concern, and coming to her, took her hand, pressed it, and kissed it with grateful respect. A few minutes more of silent exertion enabled him to proceed with composure."

Questions moving forward: Will we confront Willoughby? What's up with Eddie and Lucy?

Who wins the chapter? Brandon, obviously.
