The seventh episode may be due to the transition, and there is no big ups and downs in the plot.
I don't like Liszt in this episode very much. I feel that her performance in this episode is no different from that of some scumbags. On the one hand, she really cared about Miss Walker, and talked to the doctor about Miss Walker's condition and current situation, although the doctor only received a very brief letter from Miss Walker's sister; she also asked her aunt to inquire more about Miss Walker's situation. However, he turned around and rolled onto the bed with his old lover, Marianna. This, I can't understand having sex with another person when there is one person in mind.
And also repeatedly asked Marianna to leave her husband and live with her in Shibden. Isn't this already equivalent to destroying other people's marriages? Marianna's answer was always, after Charles dies. Liszt was visibly angry with her. After giving the breakfast table to the Charles couple, Liszt slammed the door.
There is also a scene where Liszt confronts Mr. Rawson. Because Rawson molested Liszt's sister at the bank. So Liszt wanted to "let him apologize to us here." In the end, however, Rawson did not apologize at all, and denied Liszt's claim of stealing coal. Therefore, Liszt boasted about Haikou, but he did not achieve his goal. I don't know if it's a foreshadowing here, or to reflect Liszt's brave face. I hope the next episode will have a proper account of the coal mine. Otherwise, here I only see recklessness and indiscretion, but no resourcefulness. Maybe there will be a reversal of beating the wicked in the future.
Liszt liked Miss Walker first and foremost because of her money. This is also acknowledged in the play. Break through the limitations of gender, I admit it. Liszt was studious, curious, and full of energy, unlike the frail noble lady at the time. But she didn't break through the limitations of class, when her footman wanted to marry her maid who was pregnant by accident, she said he would beneath her. Liszt's favorite woman has always been "titled and well-educated". So I don't see her breaking out of her time.
I really appreciate loving someone wholeheartedly, whether it's of the same sex or of the opposite sex. This is what Liszt failed to do, and this episode made it all the more obvious.
Liszt has her charm, she is very mature, quite sophisticated, well-versed in the world, and has a very accurate grasp of people's psychology. So when her sister told her that Rawson had lied to her about Liszt's mortgage, she could immediately guess that Rawson wanted to know how much money she had. Her insight into human psychology was also quite helpful in her pursuit of Miss Walker.
On the contrary, the image of the younger sister came to life in this episode.
Liszt's new footman came to report, and Liszt himself was in a state of upset, so he explained it without looking directly at him. The younger sister looked up and down with interest, "what a lovely face." she said.
Being humiliated by Rawson at the bank, he went home in tears. "The thought of you roaming around in Paris, Zurich, etc., and we were kicked out of the house because you mortgaged the property..."
Mr. Abbott was looking for another person because of the dowry, and his sister was not heartbroken, but only made a joke.
Although they are noisy, the two still have a deep sisterhood and care for each other. Before the trip, the two kissed on the cheeks, and they only pecked quickly. After that, they still had a "I'm cool, I don't care about you, it's fake" expression. Want to cover up.
Liszt went out with a thermometer, which is not unusual even today. So much so that fellow Marianna asked, why've you brought that?
